The Offer provides the employees of the Group with the opportunity to acquire shares of ENGIE S.A. (the "Shares"), through the company mutual fund (the "FCPE") or directly, depending on local legal and tax constraints. Two formulas are proposed:
The Offer will be completed through a sale of shares and/or a capital increase reserved for members of the Group's saving plan (the "PEG") and of the Group's international saving plan (the "PEGI"), in accordance with articles L. 3332-24 and L. 3332-18 of the French Labour Code.
The Shares proposed under the Offer will be newly shares issued in accordance with the 24th and 25th resolution of the Company's combined general meetings of 21 April 2022, and/or existing shares previously purchased by the Company under its share buy-back program.
In accordance with the decision of the ENGIE S.A.'s Board of Directors of 21 April 2022, the maximum number of Shares proposed under the Offer is fixed at 17 million (the "Global Envelope"), corresponding to 0.70% of the share capital on the date of the Board of Director's decision. This Global Envelope includes one sub-envelope for the Link Multiple formula limited to 135 million euro. An additional ceiling of 0.5% of the share capital will also be considered for the Shares issued pursuant to the 25th resolution of the above-mentioned Company's combined general shareholders' meeting in favour of the financial institution, counterparty of the Link Multiple Offer, to allow for the allocation of Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") in countries where the FCPE will not be offered.
The number of individual requests may be reduced if the total number of Shares requested under the Offer exceeds the Global Envelope or the formula-specific sub-envelopes indicated above.

The Shares to be delivered under this free share allocation plan will be existing shares.
The scope of the Offer includes ENGIE S.A. and the companies members of the PEG or PEGI having their registered offices in the most representative countries of the Group, i.e. 17 countries.
The beneficiaries of the Offer (the "Beneficiaries") are all eligible employees and individuals according to the French Labour Code and the PEG and PEGI schemes that fulfil, on the last day of the revocation period, the seniority requirement set by the regulations of the PEG or the PEGI. Former employees of an eligible company, having left for retirement or early retirement and still holding assets in the PEG or PEGI are also beneficiaries of the Offer (excluding the matching contribution).

The acquisition or subscription price for the offered Shares will be equal to the average of the volume-weighted-average prices of the Share on Paris Euronext market (VWAP) over the twenty trading days preceding the decision of the ENGIE S.A.'s CEO setting the dates of the revocation period, which legally corresponds to the subscription period (the "Reference Price"). A 20% discount will be applied to the Reference Price, rounded up to the nearest euro cent (the "Subscription Price").
It is expected that the Reference Price and the Subscription Price will be fixed on 15 November 2022, and then communicated to all Beneficiaries.
The Reference Price and Subscription Price will be fixed in euro. The Beneficiaries' investments in the Offer must be paid in euro, or in their local currency using the exchange rate set on 15 November 2022.

The Offer Link 2022 is not made to Beneficiaries who are nationals or residents of countries subject to international sanctions in accordance with applicable laws (except as provided for in such laws) and will be made only in countries where such an Offer has been registered with the competent local authorities and in countries where all required filing procedures and/or notifications have been completed and authorisations obtained.

Investing is a personal decision that must be made by an employee, taking into account their financial resources, investment goals, personal tax situation, any other investment alternatives available and the fact that the value of a quoted share will fluctuate. In this regard, beneficiaries are encouraged to consider the diversification of their investment portfolio to ensure that the risk that they assume is not unduly concentrated on any single investment.
