2. The overall Transaction
On 16 July 2024 Fnac Darty and the Co-investor entered into an Investment Agreement regarding the overall Transaction involving the Offer and, upon its completion, the contributions in kind of the stakes respectively held by Fnac Darty and Ruby in Unieuro to HoldCo. Namely, according to the Investment Agreement, among other things, Fnac Darty and the Co-investor agreed upon:
- (i) the characteristic of the Offer, including, among other things, the nature and the relevant Consideration, the funding of the Offer and the Conditions Precedent to which the Offer is subject; and
- (ii) the transactions to be carried out, in case certain conditions are fulfilled, following the completion of the Offer, including, among other things, the contribution(s) in kind (taking into account the ultimate Offer consideration for the purpose of determining the exchange ratio (parité d'échange)) of all the Unieuro Shares which will be held by Fnac Darty and the Co-investor following completion of the Offer (as well as following, if any, the execution of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA and/or the Joint Procedure) to HoldCo, a company operating under French law whose share capital will be held at 51% by Fnac Darty and at 49% by the Co-investor following such HoldCo Contributions.

Furthermore, on the same 16 July 2024 Fnac Darty and the Co-investor also entered into the Shareholders' Agreement, which sets forth certain provisions regarding, inter alia, (i) the governance of Unieuro and HoldCo as well as (ii) their respective rights and obligations as shareholders of HoldCo and Unieuro (including but not limited to the potential direct or indirect transfer of their shares in HoldCo and Unieuro).
For further information in relation to the Investment Agreement and the Shareholders' Agreement, please refer to the essential information disclosed pursuant to Article 122 CFA reported in Section M, Paragraph M.1, of the Offer Document.
3. Consideration of the Offer and total value of the Offer
Should the Conditions Precedent be fulfilled (or waived as applicable) and the Offer become effective, the Offerors will pay a Consideration equal to Euro 9.00, as Cash Portion, and no. 0.1 newly issued Fnac Shares listed on Euronext Paris, as Share Portion, for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer.
Therefore, for every no. 10 Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer, Euro 90.00 and no. 1 newly issued Fnac Share will be paid.
Based on the closing price per Fnac Share equal to Euro 30.20, as recorded on 15 July 2024 (i.e. the last Trading Day before the Announcement Date), the Consideration – taking into

account both the Cash Portion and Share Portion - corresponds to an implied monetary value equal to Euro 12.02 for each Unieuro Share.
The Consideration therefore incorporates a premium of:
- 42% compared to the official price of the Unieuro Shares on 15 July 2024 (last Trading Day prior to the Announcement Date), equal to Euro 8.45;
- 34%, 33% and 30% compared to the weighted arithmetic average of the official prices of the Unieuro Shares in the three, six and twelve months preceding the Announcement Date, respectively.
The payment of the Cash Portion for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer will be borne by both Fnac Darty and the Co-Investor, while the payment of the Share Portion for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer will be borne exclusively by Fnac Darty by means of the execution of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Offer Capital Increase is within the scope of the provisions of Article L. 22-10-54 of the French Commercial Code, with regard to share capital increases performed in the context of an exchange offer, such article referring to the provisions of Articles L. 225-129 to L. 225- 129-6 and to Article L. 22-10-49 of the French Commercial Code. In accordance with Article L. 22-10-49 of the French Commercial Code, the board of directors of Fnac Darty held on 16 July 2024 delegated to the chief executive officer of Fnac Darty the power to carry out the Offer Capital Increase, in one or several instances.
Furthermore, in accordance with Articles L. 225-129-5, L. 225-135 and R. 225-116 of the French Commercial Code, the board of directors of Fnac Darty will issue a complementary report in connection with the use made of the delegation of authority given by the Fnac EGM 2023 in its resolution no. 23. Said report will include, in particular, (i) a presentation of the final terms and conditions of the transaction, performed in accordance with the authorization given by the shareholders' meeting, (ii) the impact of the proposed issuance on the situation of holders of Fnac Darty shares and securities giving access to the capital, in particular with regard to their share of shareholders' equity at the end of the last financial year, and (iii) the theoretical impact on the current market value of Fnac Shares as determined based on the average of the previous 20 trading day sessions. This complementary report will be made available to shareholders at the registered office of Fnac Darty, no later than 15 days after the chief executive officer's decision setting the final conditions of the capital increase and brought to the shareholders' attention at the next ordinary shareholder's meeting. Pursuant to paragraph 4 of Article L. 225-135 of the French Commercial Code, the statutory auditors will also issue a complementary report on the final terms and conditions of the transaction to be submitted to the first ordinary shareholders' meeting following the share capital increase.
The Offered Shares will have the same rights as the existing shares of Fnac Darty and will be listed and traded on Euronext Paris. The listing of the Offered Shares will take place automatically, in accordance with the provisions of the stock exchange rules of Euronext Paris,

since they will be fungible with, and have the same characteristics as, the Fnac Shares that are already listed. The Fnac Shares will represent, over a period of 12 months, less than 20% of the number of ordinary Fnac Shares already admitted to trading on the same regulated market and, consequently, in accordance with Article 1, Paragraph 5, letter a), of Regulation (EU) 1129/2017, there is no obligation to publish a prospectus for the listing of the Offered Shares.
The Consideration has been set on the assumption that the Issuer will not resolve and implement any distribution of ordinary or extraordinary dividends from profits or reserves/premium; should this be the case, the Consideration will automatically be reduced by an amount equal to any distribution (including dividend, interim dividend, reserves or premium distribution) paid for each Unieuro Share.
Please refer to Section E of the Offer Document for further information on the Consideration.
If all of the Shares Subject to the Offer are tendered (assuming the issuance of all of the Additional Shares):
- (i) a maximum amount of Euro 179,503,137, as maximum aggregate amount of the Cash Portion, will be paid to the tendering Unieuro shareholders (other than the Offerors); and
- (ii) a maximum of no. 1,994,480 newly issued Fnac Shares, as maximum aggregate amount of the Share Portion, will be issued to the tendering Unieuro shareholders (other than the Offerors), representing approximately 6.70% of Fnac Darty's share capital following the execution of the Offer Capital Increase.
In light of the above, the Aggregate Maximum Disbursement, calculated on the basis of the Cash Portion of the Consideration and the implied monetary value of the Share Portion of the Consideration (determined taking as a reference the closing price of Fnac Shares as of 15 July 2024 and based on no. 0.1 Offered Shares, equal to Euro 3.02), assuming that all Shares Subject to the Offer (including all of the Additional Shares) are tendered to the Offer, is equal to Euro 239,736,412.

A. WARNINGS
A.1. Conditions precedents of the Offer
The Offer is subject to the fulfilment (or the waiver by the Offerors as provided below) of each of the following Conditions Precedent (it being understood that such Conditions Precedent are listed below in an order that is not mandatory):
- (i) the obtainment, by the second Trading Day prior to the Payment Date, of any authorization, approval or clearance, including the authorization by the European Commission required under EU competition legislation in order to take legal control over the Issuer, as well as any other applicable clearance pursuant to antitrust applicable regulations, which may be required by any competent authority under the applicable laws for the completion of the Offer, without the aforementioned authorities imposing serious remedies on the Offerors and/or the Issuer (the "Authorization Condition");
- (ii) that the Offerors and any Person Acting in Concert with them come to hold, upon completion of the Offer ‒ as a result of tenders in the Offer and/or any purchases made outside the Offer pursuant to applicable law during or ahead of the Tender Period (as may be extended) ‒ a direct and/or indirect stake above 90% of the Issuer's share capital (the "Minimum Threshold Condition");
- (iii) that between the Date of the Offer Document and the second Trading Day prior to the Payment Date, the corporate bodies of the Issuer (and/or of one of its directly or indirectly controlled or associated companies) do not perform or undertake to perform (including through conditional agreements and/or partnerships with third parties) any action or transaction (a) exceeding the ordinary course of business of Unieuro as currently carried out and that may result in a material change, including prospective change, in the capital, the assets, economic and financial situation, as represented in the Unieuro Consolidated FS 23-24 and in the Unieuro Q1 Report 2024, and/or activity of the Issuer (and/or of one of its directly or indirectly controlled or associated companies), or (b) that are in any case inconsistent with the Offer and the underlying industrial and commercial rationale, without prejudice in any case to the Condition Precedent set out in point (iv) below; the foregoing shall be understood as referring, by way of example only, to capital increases (also resulting from the exercise of the delegated powers granted, pursuant to Article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, to the board of directors) or reductions, distributions of reserves, payment of extraordinary dividends, purchases or disposal of treasury shares, mergers, demergers, transformations, amendments to the articles of association in general, transfers, even on a temporary basis, of assets, equity investments (or related rights), companies or business units, bond issues or debt assumption;
- (iv) that in any case, between the Date of the Offer Document and the second Trading Day prior to the Payment Date, the Issuer and/or its directly or indirectly controlled subsidiaries and/or associated companies do not resolve and/or carry out, or undertake to carry out, actions or transactions that may hinder the achievement of the objectives of the Offer in accordance with Article 104 of the CFA, even if such actions and/or transactions have been authorized by the Issuer's ordinary or extraordinary

shareholders' meeting or are decided and implemented autonomously by the Issuer's ordinary or extraordinary shareholders' meeting and/or by the management bodies of the Issuer's subsidiaries and/or associated companies;
(v) that by the second Trading Day prior to the Payment Date, (a) no extraordinary national and/or international circumstances or events have occurred that result or may result in material adverse changes in the political, financial, economic, currency, regulatory or market situation and which have a material adverse effect on the Offer and/or on the financial, asset, economic or earnings situation of the Issuer (and/or of its subsidiaries and/or associated companies), as represented in the Unieuro Consolidated FS 23-24 and in the Unieuro Q1 Report 2024, and/or of the Offerors, as represented in the most recent financial information as reported in Section B, Paragraph B.1, of the Offer Document; and (b) no facts or situations relating to the Issuer have emerged which were not known to the market and/or the Offerors as of the Date of the Offer Document, and which have a material adverse change on the business and/or financial, asset, economic or earnings situation of the Issuer (and/or of its subsidiaries and/or associated companies), as represented in the Unieuro Consolidated FS 23-24 and in the Unieuro Q1 Report 2024 (the "MAC Condition"). It remains understood that this Condition Precedent specifically includes also all the events or situations listed in (a) and (b) above which may occur as a consequence of, or in connection with, the Russia-Ukraine political-military crisis, the Arab-Israeli conflict in the Middle East and the Red Sea crisis or other international tensions (including China-US political-military tensions) which, although representing events in the public domain as of the Date of the Offer Document, may entail detrimental effects, in the terms set forth above, which are new and neither foreseen nor foreseeable.
The Offerors have identified the Minimum Threshold Condition under point (ii) above based on their intention to make a significant investment in Unieuro and to achieve the Issuer's Delisting. In the event that the Minimum Threshold Condition is not fulfilled, the Offerors reserve the unquestionable right to waive the Minimum Threshold Condition at any time and purchase a smaller amount of Unieuro Shares.
Without prejudice to the above, and to the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Conditions Precedent may be waived or amended in whole or in part by the Offerors by joint written agreement.
With respect to the Condition Precedent set out in point (i) above, provided that no competition concerns have been identified by the end of the pre-notification phase and that voting rights in Unieuro are not exercised until receipt of the authorization, approval or clearance by the European Commission, the Offerors have agreed to waive this Condition Precedent in the event the pre-notification phase with the European Commission is completed (and the notification has been submitted) on or before the second Trading Day preceding the Payment Date.
Should the Condition Precedent set out in point (i) above be waived, please note that it would still be possible to complete the Offer, provided that the Offerors do not exercise the voting rights associated with the Issuer's shares purchased until the authorisation decision is issued.

However, it is possible that the European Commission may not issue an authorisation decision, or may issue an authorisation decision conditional on the execution of corrective measures. In this regard, any authorisation for the transaction issued by the competent antitrust authority that prescribes corrective measures may – in the event of waiver by the Offerors of the Condition Precedent set out in point (i) above and completion of the Offer notwithstanding the imposition of those corrective measures – have a significant adverse effect on the process of integration of Unieuro in the Fnac Group and, therefore, on the pursuit of the earnings growth prospects underlying the strategic objectives of the Offer (for more details, see Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document). It is specified that, if no competition concerns have been identified by the end of the pre-notification phase, it is unlikely that competition concerns - such that the Transaction would not be authorised or would be authorised subject to corrective measures - would be identified during the formal review of the Transaction by the European Commission.
The Offerors will disclose the fulfilment or non-fulfilment of the Conditions Precedent or any waiver thereof, by giving notice in accordance with Article 36 of the Issuers' Regulation within the following terms:
- as for the Minimum Threshold Condition, firstly with the Notice of the Preliminary Results of the Offer which will be published by the evening of the last day of the Tender Period or, at the latest, by 7:29 a.m. of the first Trading Day following the end of the Tender Period, and then confirmed with the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer which will be published by 7:29 a.m. of the calendar day preceding the Payment Date;
- as for all other Conditions Precedent, with the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer, which will be published by 7:29 a.m. of the Trading Day preceding the Payment Date.
In the event that even one of the Conditions Precedent is not fulfilled and the Offerors do not exercise their right to waive it, the Offer will not be completed. In this scenario, any Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer will be made available to their holders by the Trading Day following the date on which the failure to fulfil one or more the Conditions Precedent is disclosed for the first time. The Unieuro Shares will be returned to their holders at no cost or expense to them.
It should be noted that on 8 August 2024 the Offerors have given notice that Fnac Darty has obtained from its lending banks the waivers required to implement the Offer and the overall Transaction and to prevent any technical breach under any existing facility agreement of Fnac Darty which would arise therefrom; as a result, the condition set forth in paragraph 3.5, number (vi), of the Offer Notice was deemed to be fulfilled.
A.2. Approval of financial reports and interim financial updates
On 11 July 2024, the Issuer's board of directors approved the interim management report as of 31 May 2024, which has been made available to the public in the "Investors" section of www.unieurospa.com and at the authorised storage mechanism "eMarket Storage" at . Based on the Issuer's investor relations agenda, on 13 November 2024, Unieuro will publish its half-year financial report as of 31 August 2024, which will be

made available in the "Investors" section of www.unieurospa.com and at the authorised storage mechanism "eMarket Storage" at .
On 24 July 2024, the Fnac Darty's board of directors approved the half-year interim financial report as of 30 June 2024, which has been made available to the public at the Fnac Darty's website in the "Investors" section of www.fnacdarty.com.
Based on the current Fnac Darty's investor relations agenda, on 23 October 2024, Fnac Darty will publish its third quarter revenues as of 30 September 2024, which will be made available to the public at the Fnac Darty's website in the "Investors" section of www.fnacdarty.com.
A.3. Determination of the Consideration
Should the Conditions Precedent be fulfilled (or waived as applicable) and the Offer become effective, the Offerors will pay a Consideration equal to Euro 9.00, as Cash Portion, and no. 0.1 newly issued Fnac Shares listed on Euronext Paris, as Share Portion, for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer.
Based on the closing price per Fnac Share equal to Euro 30.20, as recorded on 15 July 2024 (i.e. the last trading day before the Announcement Date), the Consideration – taking into account both the Cash Portion and Share Portion - corresponds to an implied monetary value equal to Euro 12.02 for each Unieuro Share.
The payment of the Cash Portion for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer will be borne by both Fnac Darty and the Co-Investor, while the payment of the Share Portion for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer will be borne exclusively by Fnac Darty by means of the execution of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Consideration is intended to be net of any Italian stamp duty, registration tax or financial transaction tax, to the extent due, and of fees, commissions and expenses, which will be borne by the Offerors, while any income, withholding or substitute tax on capital gains, if due, will be borne by the shareholders tendering to the Offer.
The Consideration has been set on the assumption that the Issuer will not resolve and implement any distribution of ordinary or extraordinary dividends from profits or reserves/premium; should this be the case, the Consideration will automatically be reduced by an amount equal to any distribution (including dividend, interim dividend, reserves or premium distribution) paid for each Unieuro Share.
The valuation analysis conducted by the Offerors for the purposes of determining the Consideration had the following main limitations and difficulties:
- (i) for the purposes of its analysis, the Offerors have solely used data and information of a public nature, mainly taken from the consolidated financial statements of Unieuro;
- (ii) the Offerors have not performed any financial, legal, commercial, tax, business or other due diligence on the Issuer;

- (iii) the financial projections contained in Unieuro investor presentations are not sufficiently detailed to be able to determine the Unieuro operational cash flow forecasts for the purpose of applying fundamental valuation methods;
- (iv) the Unieuro historic "non-recurring costs" are significant (Euro 16.8m in FY 2023/24, Euro 10.8m in FY 2022/23 and Euro 14.5m in FY 2021/22 at EBIT level, comprising mainly of M&A costs, store openings, relocations and closing costs, adjustments related to change in the business model (i.e. extended warranties) and other non-recurring costs) and estimates of future "non-recurring costs" are not provided;
- (v) the limited nature of information for precisely estimating synergies, their phasing as well as their associated implementation costs.
Therefore, in view of the above limitations and valuation difficulties, the Offerors, for the purposes of determining the Consideration, used a valuation approach based on market methods. Specifically, the methodology used in the determination of the Consideration was the "stock market trading prices" method. The valuation of Unieuro obtained by applying the stock market trading prices method was crosschecked by applying the i) "analysts target price" and ii) "market multiples" methods.
Based on the closing price of Fnac Shares equal to Euro 30.20, as recorded on 15 July 2024 (i.e. the last Trading Day before the Announcement Date), the Consideration – taking into account both the Cash Portion and Share Portion - corresponds to an implied monetary value equal to Euro 12.02 for each Unieuro Share and, therefore, incorporates the following premiums with reference to the VWAP of the Unieuro Shares in the relevant periods indicated below.
| Reference date/period |
VWAP of Unieuro Shares (Euro) |
Difference between the implied monetary value of the Consideration and the VWAP of Unieuro Shares (Euro) |
Implied premium of the Consideration (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 July 2024 | 8.45 | 3.57 | 42.26% |
| 1-month VWAP |
8.60 | 3.42 | 39.77% |
| 3-month VWAP |
8.95 | 3.07 | 34.30% |
| 6-month VWAP |
9.06 | 2.96 | 32.68% |
| 1-year VWAP | 9.28 | 2.74 | 29.58% |

Please refer to Section E of the Offer Document for further information on the Consideration.
A.4. Offer Capital Increase and admission to trading of the Offered Shares
The Offered Shares that will be required as Share Portion of the Consideration will be issued out of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Offer Capital Increase is within the scope of the provisions of Article L. 22-10-54 of the French Commercial Code, with regard to share capital increases performed in the context of an exchange offer, such article referring to the provisions of Articles L. 225-129 to L. 225- 129-6 and to Article L. 22-10-49 of the French Commercial Code. In accordance with Article L. 22-10-49 of the French Commercial Code, the board of directors of Fnac Darty held on 16 July 2024 delegated to the chief executive officer of Fnac Darty the power to carry out the Offer Capital Increase, in one or several instances.
Furthermore, in accordance with Articles L. 225-129-5, L. 225-135 and R. 225-116 of the French Commercial Code, the board of directors of Fnac Darty will issue a complementary report in connection with the use made of the delegation of authority given by the Fnac EGM 2023 in its resolution no. 23. Said report will include, in particular, (i) a presentation of the final terms and conditions of the transaction, performed in accordance with the authorization given by the shareholders' meeting, (ii) the impact of the proposed issuance on the situation of holders of Fnac Darty shares and securities giving access to the capital, in particular with regard to their share of shareholders' equity at the end of the last financial year, and (iii) the theoretical impact on the current market value of Fnac Shares as determined based on the average of the previous 20 trading day sessions. This complementary report will be made available to shareholders at the registered office of Fnac Darty, no later than 15 days after the chief executive officer's decision setting the final conditions of the capital increase and brought to the shareholders' attention at the next ordinary shareholder's meeting. Pursuant to paragraph 4 of Article L. 225-135 of the French Commercial Code, the statutory auditors will also issue a complementary report on the final terms and conditions of the transaction to be submitted to the first ordinary shareholders' meeting following the share capital increase.
The Offered Shares will have the same rights as the existing shares of Fnac Darty and will be listed and traded on Euronext Paris. The listing of the Offered Shares will take place automatically, in accordance with the provisions of the stock exchange rules of Euronext Paris, since they will be fungible with, and have the same characteristics as, the Fnac Shares that are already listed. The Fnac Shares will represent, over a period of 12 months, less than 20% of the number of ordinary Fnac Shares already admitted to trading on the same regulated market and, consequently, in accordance with Article 1, Paragraph 5, letter a), of Regulation (EU) 1129/2017, there is no obligation to publish a prospectus for the listing of the Offered Shares.
For additional information, see Section E, Paragraphs E.5 and E.7, of the Offer Document.

A.5. Information relating to the financing of the Offer
A.5.1. Financing of the Consideration
The Offered Shares that will be required as Share Portion of the Consideration will be issued out of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Cash Portion of the Consideration will be financed through the use of the Offerors available funds.

A.5.2. Guarantee of full performance
As a guarantee of full performance of the Offerors' payment obligations under the Offer visà-vis the tendering Unieuro shareholders for the Cash Portion of the Consideration, the Issuing Bank issued in favour of the Offerors the Guarantee of Full Performance pursuant to Article 37bis, Paragraph 3, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation, by which Crédit Agricole CIB, Milan Branch, irrevocably and unconditionally undertook to pay, at the simple request and in the name and on behalf of the Offerors, the amount due from the latter as Cash Portion for the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer up to the Maximum Cash Disbursement in the event that the Offerors will not be able to fulfil the relevant obligations to pay the Cash Portion of the Consideration.
The Guarantee of Full Performance relates to the Cash Portion of the Consideration only and the Issuing Bank does not have any obligation with respect to the Share Portion of the Consideration.
For further details, please refer to Section G, Paragraph G.1.2, of the Offer Document.
With reference to the full performance of the Offerors' obligation to pay the Share Component of the Consideration on the terms and conditions set out in the Offer Document, pursuant to Article 37bis, Paragraph 3, letter b), of the Issuers' Regulation, please refer to Section G, Paragraph G.1.2, of the Offer Document.
A.6. Related parties
To the best of the Offerors' knowledge, neither the Offerors, nor their significant shareholders, nor the members of their management and control bodies, are related parties of the Issuer pursuant to the Related Parties Regulation.
For more information, see Section B, Paragraph B.1, of the Offer Document.

A.7. Rationale for the Offer and future plans
The consumer electronics market is currently challenging, and the Fnac Darty Board sees the combination of Fnac Darty and Unieuro as a strategic move to address this environment by increasing scale and geographic diversification, offering protection during downturns and opportunities for growth and profit in favourable conditions.
The combination of Fnac Darty and Unieuro that would result from the completion of the Offer would notably provide the following benefits:
- (i) the creation of a leading European retailer in consumer electronics and household appliances retail in Western and Southern Europe (France, Italy, Iberia, Benelux, Switzerland), with more than Euro 10bn revenue and first and second positions in its main markets;
- (ii) the combination of three iconic and well-known brands in their respective markets, with strong levels of customer awareness;
- (iii) a more balanced geographic exposure;
- (iv) an enhanced capacity to deploy both groups strategic priorities around notably omnichannel capabilities and focus on services, where they could share their valuable experience in those domains, while strengthening Unieuro's relationships with its commercial long-term partners, particularly in terms of service offerings;
- (v) a significant amount of operational synergies estimated over Euro 20 million run-rate (pre-tax, starting 2025), notably generated by:
- a. for the major part, improvement of cost of goods sold through the possibility to entertain certain joint negotiations with suppliers; and
- b. for the minor part, mutualization and improvement of the purchasing channels and conditions for private label products.
Furthermore, following the completion of the Offer, the Offerors plan to support Unieuro's current strategy "Omni-Journey" announced in May 2023 and the activities of Unieuro in accordance with this strategy, also for the purpose of achieving the financial targets announced by the Issuer in May 2024. As of the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not agreed on a business plan with respect to the Offer, also given the need to exchange with the management of the Issuer on this matter which – also in view of the shareholding reached following the Offer - might be carried out after the completion of the same. It is expected that discussions with Unieuro's management will allow to enhance this strategy based on the experience of Fnac Darty and Ruby's representatives that would be involved in the governance of Unieuro, and on potential synergies between Unieuro and Fnac Darty.
In this respect, Fnac Darty is ready to contribute to the successful growth of the Issuer by leveraging on its experience in omni-channel and services offering deployed over the recent years with its plans Confiance + and Everyday.
As described above, the Offer is aimed at Unieuro's Delisting from Euronext Milan, in order to enable the Group to pursue the abovementioned business integration objectives underlying the Transaction more effectively and quickly and generate valuable synergies. Such a

situation, in fact, is generally characterised by less burdens associated with the listing of shares and compliance with the relevant regulations and by a greater degree of managerial and organisational flexibility. Therefore, if the applicable legal requirements are met, the Offerors intend to pursue the Delisting fulfilling and/or carrying out the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA and/or the Joint Procedure, in accordance with Articles 108, paragraph 1, and 111 of the CFA.
Moreover, should the conditions for Delisting not be fulfilled following the completion of the Offer, the Offerors may waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and propose to the shareholders' meeting of Unieuro the Merger of the latter into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo, as better described under Paragraph A.8 below.
Irrespectively of Delisting being achieved, the Offerors may also consider other extraordinary transactions and/or corporate and business reorganizations that will be deemed appropriate, in line with the objectives and the rationale of the Offer, as well as with the Issuer's growth and development objectives, also in order to ensure the integration of the activities of Fnac Darty and the Issuer.
As of the Date of the Offer Document, no formal resolution to carry out any such Merger, extraordinary transactions and/or reorganizations has been taken by the competent bodies of the Offerors or other companies belonging to the Group.
In addition, through the Offer, the Offerors intend to grant Unieuro's shareholders the possibility to sell their Unieuro Shares on more favourable terms than those offered by the market, taking into account market liquidity and market performance of the Unieuro Shares, while still participating in the growth strategy of the combined entity by receiving the Share Portion of the Consideration.
For further information, please refer to Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document.
A.8. Potential extraordinary transactions following the Offer
A.8.1. Possible Merger
Should the conditions for the Delisting not occur, the Offerors may waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and propose to the shareholders' meeting of Unieuro the Merger of the latter into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo. In any case, as of the Date of Offer Document, no formal decisions have been taken by the competent bodies of the companies that might be involved regarding the possible Merger, or the manner in which it would be carried out.
However, should the Offerors reach a threshold of at least 66.67% of Unieuro's share capital upon completion of the Offer, the Merger by incorporation may also be approved with only the Offerors' favourable vote.
If resolved, the Merger would take place on the basis of an exchange ratio determined using, as customary, homogeneous methodologies and assumptions in the valuation of the companies involved, without any premium being due to the minority shareholders of the merged company.

Since HoldCo may become a related party of the Issuer pursuant to the Related Parties Regulation upon completion of the Offer, the Merger may qualify as a transaction between related parties under the Related Parties Regulation and, consequently, would be subject to the principles and rules of transparency and substantive and procedural fairness set forth in the procedure for transactions with related parties adopted by the Issuer in the implementation of the Related Parties Regulation.
In the event that the Issuer were to be merged into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo, the Issuer's shareholders that did not vote in favour of the resolution approving the Merger would have the right to withdraw pursuant to the applicable law provisions if the relevant conditions are met. Should the withdrawal right be exercised, the liquidation value of the Unieuro Shares subject to withdrawal will be determined pursuant to Article 2437ter, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code, by reference to the arithmetic average of the closing prices during the 6 months preceding the publication of the notice of the shareholders' meeting called to approve the Merger.
Therefore, following the Merger referred to above, if any, the Issuer's shareholders who decide not to exercise their right of withdrawal would become holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
A.8.2. Further possible extraordinary transactions
Irrespectively of Unieuro's Delisting, the Offerors do not exclude evaluating in the future the opportunity to carry out any further extraordinary transactions and/or corporate and business reorganizations that will be deemed appropriate, in line with the objectives and the rationale of the Transaction, as well as with the Issuer's growth and development goals, also in order to ensure the integration of the activities of Fnac Darty and Unieuro.
In any case, at the Date of the Offer Document, no formal decisions have been taken by the competent bodies.
For further information, please refer to Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document.
A.9. Notifications or applications for authorisations required by the applicable regulations
The launch of the Offer is not per se subject to any notification requirement nor to any authorization.
It should be noted, however, that the Offer is subject, inter alia, to the Authorization Condition. In this regard, please note that the acquisition of legal control over the Issuer is subject to the authorization by the European Commission required under EU competition legislation. In particular, Fnac Darty has engaged discussions (pre-notification phase) with the case team that have been allocated by the European Commission on 17 July 2024. In the context of these discussions, Fnac Darty has circulated a draft "form CO" to the case team on 9 August 2024. Upon completion of the ongoing pre-notification phase (i.e. once the form CO will be deemed complete), Fnac Darty will formally notify the form CO to the European Commission. A 25 business days (phase I) review will then be launched before the European Commission hands down its decision.

Based on the information available as of the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not identified any additional antitrust or other authority authorization, approval or clearance under applicable laws, including foreign direct investment regulations, necessary for the completion of the Offer.
A.10. Reopening of the Tender Period
The Offerors will apply to the Offer on a voluntary basis the provisions relating to the mandatory reopening of the Tender Period set forth in Article 40bis, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation.
Therefore, as indicated in Section F, Paragraph F.1.1., of the Offer Document, pursuant to Article 40bis, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation, by the Trading Day following the Payment Date, the Tender Period must be reopened for 5 Trading Days (specifically, subject to possible extensions of the Tender Period, for the sessions of 4 November, 5 November, 6 November, 7 November e 8 November 2024) if, upon the publication of the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (see Section F, Paragraph F.3, of the Offer Document), the Offerors give notice of the waiver of the Minimum Threshold Condition.
If the Reopening of the Tender Period were to occur, the Offerors would deliver the Consideration to each Unieuro shareholder tendering in the Offer during the Reopening of the Tender Period on the fifth Trading Day following the end of the Reopening of the Tender Period and, therefore, subject to possible extensions of the Tender Period, on 15 November 2024.
However, the Reopening of the Tender Period will not occur:
- (i) if the Offerors, at least 5 Trading Days before the end of the Tender Period, give notice to the market of the waiver of the Minimum Threshold Condition; or
- (ii) if, at the end of the Tender Period, the requirements for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or the Joint Procedure are met; or
- (iii) if the Unieuro Shares are subject to one or more competing bids.
A.11. Offerors' statement relating to the restoration of the float and the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA
Since the Offer is aimed at acquiring all of the outstanding shares of the Issuer not yet held by the Offerors (as better described under Paragraph C.1 below) as of the Date of the Offer Document and obtaining the Delisting, in the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extensions of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law, a total stake greater than 90% but smaller than 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors hereby declare their intent to not restore a free float sufficient to ensure regular trading of the Issuer's ordinary shares.
For the purpose of calculating the thresholds provided for by Article 108, Paragraph 2, of the CFA, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).

If the conditions are met, the Offerors will therefore comply with the obligation to purchase the remaining Shares Subject to the Offer from the Issuer's shareholders so requesting pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 2, of the CFA, paying to the Issuer's shareholders a price per Unieuro Share equal to the Consideration for the Offer or determined by Consob (as applicable), in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50, 50bis and 50ter of the Issuers' Regulation.
Therefore:
- (i) if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have acquired at least 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the fulfillment of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be equal to the Consideration for the Offer in accordance with the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Article 50 of the Issuers' Regulation. Nonetheless, in this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation by valuing the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices recorded in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration; or
- (ii) if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have purchased less than 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the fulfillment of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be determined by CONSOB in accordance with Article 108, Paragraph 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50 and 50bis of the Issuers' Regulation. In particular:
- a) due to the voluntary application to the Offer of the Reopening of the Tender Period, pursuant to Article 50, Paragraph 4, letter c), of the Issuers' Regulation, the consideration will be determined by Consob in an amount equal to the Consideration for the Offer, provided that in this scenario at least 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer will have been tendered in the first phase of the Offer. In this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, which will be determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation measuring the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices registered in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration; or
- b) if an amount lower than 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer has been tendered to the Offer in the first phase of the Offer, the consideration will be determined by Consob in accordance with the criteria provided for by Articles 50, Paragraphs 5 and 6, and 50bis of the CFA. In this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, which will be determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter b), of the Issuers' Regulation as equal to the measurement in monetary terms determined by Consob pursuant to Article 50 and 50bis, of the Issuers' Regulation.

The following table shows an example of the possible scenarios for the determination of the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased in the context of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA.
| Purchase of a shareholding at least equal to 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer |
Purchase of a shareholding lower than 90% but at least equal to 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer in the first phase of the Offer |
Purchase of a shareholding lower than 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer in the first phase of the Offer |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Consideration of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA |
Equal to the Consideration of the Offer |
Equal to the Consideration of the Offer, as determined by Consob. |
Determined by Consob in accordance with the criteria provided for by Articles 50, Paragraphs 5 bis and 6, and 50- of the CFA. |
| Full Cash Alternative Consideration |
Determining by Consob measuring the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices registered in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration. |
Determining by Consob measuring the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices registered in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration. |
Determining by Consob as equal to the measurement in monetary terms determined by Consob pursuant to Article 50 and bis 50- , of the Issuers' Regulation. |
The Offerors will give notice if the requirements for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA are met in the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, in the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening). If such requirements are met, the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening) will contain, inter alia, information regarding (a) the number of remaining Shares Subject to the Offer (in absolute and percentage terms), (b) the manner and timing of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, and (c) the procedure and timing of the subsequent Delisting. Before starting to fulfil the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, the Offerors will publish an additional notice containing the information regarding the determination of the related consideration, as well as of the Full Cash Alternative Consideration.
Pursuant to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, if the conditions for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA are met, the Unieuro Shares will be delisted starting from the Trading Day following the day of payment for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, without prejudice to what is indicated below in relation to the exercise of the Right to Squeeze-out pursuant to Article 111 of the CFA and the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA. In such a case, the holders of Unieuro Shares who decide not to accept the Offer and who do not request the Offerors to purchase their Unieuro Shares during the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
For additional information see Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document.

A.12. Offerors' statement relating to the compliance with the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA and the concurrent exercise of the right to purchase under Article 111 of the CFA
In the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extension of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, or the possible Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law or any purchases made pursuant to the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, a total stake at least equal to 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors hereby declares their intent to exercise their Right to Squeeze-out the remaining Shares Subject to the Offer pursuant to Article 111 of the CFA.
The Right to Squeeze-out will be exercised by the Offerors as soon as possible after the conclusion of the Offer or the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA (as the case may be). The Offerors, by exercising the Right to Squeeze-out, will also fulfil the Obligation to Purchase pursuant to Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA vis-à-vis the shareholders of the Issuer who have requested it, thus carrying out a single procedure within the Joint Procedure.
For the purpose of calculating the thresholds provided for by Article 108, Paragraph 1, and Article 111 of the CFA, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA, as referred to in Article 111 of the CFA, the Right to Squeeze-out will be exercised by the Offerors by paying a price per Unieuro Share equal to the Consideration for the Offer or determined by Consob (as applicable), in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50 and 50ter of the Issuers' Regulation, as referred to in Article 50quater of the Issuers' Regulation.
Therefore, if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have acquired at least 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the Joint Procedure will be equal to the Consideration for the Offer in accordance with the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Article 50 of the Issuers' Regulation. Nonetheless, in this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation by valuing the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices recorded in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration.
The Offerors will give notice if the requirements for the Joint Procedure are met in the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, in the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening), or in the notice relating to the results of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA. If such requirements are met, the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening) or the notice

relating to the results of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will contain information regarding, inter alia, (a) the number of remaining Shares Subject to the Offer (in absolute and percentage terms), (b) the manner and timing in which the Offerors will carry out the Joint Procedure, and (c) the procedure and timing of the subsequent Delisting. Before carrying out the Joint Procedure, the Offerors will publish an additional notice containing the information regarding the determination of the related consideration, as well as of the Full Cash Alternative Consideration.
Following the occurrence of the conditions for the Joint Procedure, according to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, Borsa Italiana will order the suspension from trading and/or the Delisting of the Unieuro Shares taking account of the time required to exercise the Right to Squeeze-out.
For additional information see Section G, Paragraph G.2.7, of the Offer Document.
A.13. Possible scarcity of the free float and loss of the requirements for maintaining "STAR" status
In the event that, following completion of the Offer (including the extension of the Tender Period and /or any Reopening of the Tender Period), the conditions for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or the Joint Procedure have not been met and the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition there could in any case be a scarcity of free float such that the regular course of trading of the Unieuro Shares will not be ensured, also taking into account the possible permanence in the share capital of the Issuer of shareholders with significant stakes. In this case, the Offerors do not intend to put in place any measure aimed at restoring the minimum free float to ensure the regular trading of the Unieuro Shares and Borsa Italiana may order the suspension of the Unieuro Shares from listing and/or the Delisting pursuant to Article 2.5.1 of the Stock Exchange Regulation.
In case of Delisting, the holders of Unieuro Shares who decide not to accept the Offer will be holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
In addition, if at the end of the Offer (including the extension of the Tender Period and /or any Reopening of the Terms) (i) the conditions for Delisting are not met but the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and (ii) the remaining free float of the Unieuro Shares is more than 10% but less than 20% of the Issuer's voting share capital, such free float may not be deemed suitable to meet the requirements of sufficient float required by the Stock Exchange Regulation for the Issuer to maintain its "STAR" status and remain on the "Euronext STAR Milan" segment, resulting in the possible loss of such status and the transfer of the Issuer to the Euronext Milan market, in accordance with Article IA.4.2.2, Paragraph 3, of the instructions to the Stock Exchange Regulation. In such a case, the Unieuro Shares could have a lower degree of liquidity than that recorded as of the Date of the Offer Document. In addition, the Issuer would no longer be required to comply with the specific transparency and corporate governance requirements that are mandatory only for companies listed on the STAR Segment of Euronext Milan and could decide, at its discretion, not to voluntarily apply them.
For additional information see Section G, Paragraph G.2.7, of the Offer Document.

A.15. Possible alternative scenarios for the Unieuro shareholders
In the interests of clarity, details are provided below of the possible alternative scenarios for the shareholders of the Issuer in the situation where the Offer:
(i) is carried out (a) as a result of the fulfilment of the Conditions Precedent of the Offer, or (b) where one or more Conditions Precedent are not fulfilled, as a result of the waiver

of those conditions by the Offerors, distinguishing between the scenario of tendering to the Offer and the scenario of non-tendering to the Offer; or
(ii) is not carried out due to one or more of the Conditions Precedent not having been fulfilled without the Offerors having waived those conditions.
A.15.1. Tendering the Unieuro Shares in the Offer
Unieuro's shareholders who tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer, as possibly extended or reopened in case of the Reopening of the Tender Period, will receive a Consideration equal to Euro 9.00, as Cash Portion, and no. 0.1 newly issued Fnac Shares listed on Euronext Paris, as Share Portion, for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer. Please refer to Section F, Paragraph F.6, of the Offer Document for the treatment of Fractional Parts of Fnac Shares resulting from the assignment of the Share Portion of the Consideration.
The Offered Shares will be admitted to listing and trading on Euronext Paris, which is an EU regulated market. Please note that in relation to the Offered Shares Fnac Darty has also published the Exemption Document, available to the public at Fnac Darty's registered office and website (www.fnacdarty.com).
Tendering the Unieuro Shares in the Offer implies an investment in Fnac Darty. The Fnac Shares are governed by provisions of French corporate law and by the Fnac Darty's articles of incorporation. For further information on the rights relating to Fnac Shares and the related French law provisions, please refer to Section E, Paragraph E.7, of the Offer Document.
The Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer will be transferred to the Offerors on the Payment Date (or, as for tenders made during the Reopening of the Tender Period, the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period).
Until the Payment Date (or, as for tenders made during the Reopening of the Tender Period, the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period), shareholders of Unieuro will retain and may exercise the administrative and economic rights arising from the ownership of the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer. However, shareholders of Unieuro who tendered their Unieuro Shares in the Offer will not be able to transfer their Unieuro Shares, apart from the tendering in any competitive offer or higher bid pursuant to Article 44 of the Issuers' Regulation, as indicated under Paragraph F.1.2 of Section F of the Offer Document. During the same period, no interest on the Consideration will be due by the Offerors.
A.15.2. Not tendering the Unieuro Shares in the Offer
Unieuro's shareholders who do not tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer, as possibly extended or reopened in case of the Reopening of the Tender Period, will incur one of the scenarios described below, depending on the results of the Offer.
a. If the Offerors come to own a stake at least equal to 95% of the Issuer's share capital
In the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extension of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, or a possible Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law or any purchases made pursuant to the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the

CFA, a total stake at least equal to 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors will carry out the Joint Procedure as soon as possible after the conclusion of the Offer or the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA.
For the purpose of calculating the above threshold, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).
Unieuro shareholders who did not tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer will be obligated to transfer the ownership of their Unieuro Shares to the Offerors and, as a consequence, will receive a price determined in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50, 50bis, 50ter and 50quater of the Issuers' Regulation.
Following the occurrence of the conditions for the Joint Procedure, according to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, Borsa Italiana will order the suspension from trading and/or the Delisting of the Unieuro Shares taking account of the time required to exercise the Right to Squeeze-out.
b. If the Offerors come to own a stake greater than 90% but smaller than 95% of the Issuer's share capital
In the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extensions of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law, a total stake greater than 90% but smaller than 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors will not restore a free float sufficient to ensure regular trading and will therefore be subject to, and will comply with, the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, which will in any event result in the Delisting.
For the purpose of calculating the above threshold, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).
Therefore, shareholders of the Issuer who did not tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer will be entitled to request the Offerors to purchase their Unieuro Shares at price determined in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50, 50bis and 50terof the Issuers' Regulation.
Pursuant to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, if the relevant conditions are met, the Unieuro Shares will be delisted starting from the Trading Day following the day of payment of the Consideration under the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, without prejudice to the foregoing regarding the exercise of the Right to Squeeze-out pursuant to Article 111 of the CFA and the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA. In such a case, the holders of the Unieuro Shares who decide not to accept the Offer and do not request the Offerors to purchase their Unieuro Shares during the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.

c. If the Offerors do not reach a stake greater than 90% of the Issuer's share capital and the Minimum Threshold Condition is waived
In the event that, following completion of the Offer, the conditions for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or the Joint Procedure have not been met and the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition there could in any case be a scarcity of free float such that the regular course of trading of the Unieuro Shares will not be ensured. In this case, the Offerors do not intend to put in place any measure aimed at restoring the minimum free float to ensure the regular trading of the Unieuro Shares and Borsa Italiana may order the suspension of the Unieuro Shares from listing and/or the Delisting pursuant to Article 2.5.1 of the Stock Exchange Regulation.
Finally, if at the end of the Offer (including the extension of the Tender Period and /or any Reopening of the Terms) (i) the conditions for Delisting are not met but the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and (ii) the remaining free float of the Unieuro Shares is more than 10% but less than 20% of the Issuer's voting share capital, such free float may not be deemed suitable to meet the requirements of sufficient float required by the Stock Exchange Regulation for the Issuer to maintain its "STAR" status and remain on the "Euronext STAR Milan" segment, resulting in the possible loss of such status and the transfer of the Issuer to the Euronext Milan market, in accordance with Article IA.4.2.2, Paragraph 3, of the instructions to the Stock Exchange Regulation. In such a case, the Unieuro Shares could have a lower degree of liquidity than that recorded as of the Date of the Offer Document. In addition, the Issuer would no longer be required to comply with the specific transparency and corporate governance requirements that are mandatory only for companies listed on the STAR Segment of Euronext Milan and could decide, at its discretion, not to voluntarily apply them.
With reference to the Merger and the implementation of future plans in this scenario, a description of the following sub-scenarios is given below:
1) Achievement by the Offerors of a stake between 90% of the Issuer's share capital and 66.67% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings and the Minimum Threshold Condition is waived
In this sub-scenario, the Offerors, taking into account, inter alia, the final stake achieved in the Issuer as a result of the Offer, reserve the right to waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and, if so, may propose to the shareholders' meeting of Unieuro the Merger of the latter into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo; the Issuer's shareholders that did not vote in favour of the resolution approving the Merger would have the right to withdraw pursuant to the applicable law provisions if the relevant conditions are met. Should the withdrawal right be exercised, the liquidation value of the Unieuro Shares subject to withdrawal will be determined pursuant to Article 2437ter, Paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code, by reference to the arithmetic average of the closing prices during the 6 months preceding the publication of the notice of the call of the shareholders' meeting called to approve the Merger. Without prejudice to the foregoing, should the Offerors reach a threshold of 66.67% of Unieuro's share capital upon completion of the Offer, (i) the Merger by incorporation may also be approved with only the Offerors' favourable vote, and (ii) Fnac Darty - also indirectly as a result of the HoldCo Contributions - would have legal control over the Issuer pursuant to Article 2359, Paragraph 1, no. 1, of the Italian Civil Code and, on any

renewal of the board of directors, would have the opportunity, also taking into account the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement, to elect the majority of the Issuer's directors. Therefore, future plans would be implemented, for information on which please refer to Section A, Paragraph A.7, and Section G, Paragraph G.2.2, of the Offer Document.
In any case, as of the Date of the Offer Document, no formal decisions have been taken by the competent bodies of the companies that might be involved regarding the possible Merger, or the manner in which it would be carried out.
2) Achievement by the Offerors of a stake of less than 66.67% of the voting rights exercisable at the Issuer's shareholders' meetings, and the Minimum Threshold Condition is waived
In this sub-scenario, the Offerors, taking into account, inter alia, the final stake achieved in the Issuer as a result of the Offer, reserve the right to (i) waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and (ii) propose the Merger to the Unieuro shareholders' meeting.
In such a case, because of the stake acquired by the Offerors and the ownership structure of the Issuer as a result of the Offer:
- (a) the Offerors would not be certain to have sufficient votes in the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the Issuer to approve the Merger, depending this outcome on the percentage of share capital that would be represented at the meeting;
- (b) should the Offerors come to hold a stake equal to at least 33.34% of the voting rights exercisable in the shareholders' meetings of the Issuer, they would have voting rights in the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the Issuer suitable to prevent the approval by the latter of amendments to the Issuer's by-laws, extraordinary transactions subject to the approval of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting (such as, share capital increases, mergers, demergers) and the winding up of the Company and the appointment and removal of liquidators; and
- (c) Fnac Darty also indirectly as a result of the HoldCo Contributions and taking into account the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement – might be able to steadily elect the majority of the Issuer's directors and, therefore, exercise legal control over Unieuro pursuant to Article 2359, Paragraph 1, no. 1 or no. 2, of the Italian Civil Code (depending on the stake acquired).
Therefore, also in this sub-scenario, future plans would be implemented, notwithstanding what described under letter (a) above with regard to the Merger.
For further information, please refer to Section A, Paragraphs A.7, A.8, A.11, A.12 and A.13, and Section G of the Offer Document.
A.15.3. Scenarios in the event that the Offer is not successfully completed
In the event that even one of the Conditions Precedent is not fulfilled and the Offerors do not exercise their right to waive it, the Offer will not be completed. In this scenario, any Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer will be made available to their holders by the Trading Day following the date on which the failure to fulfil one or more the Conditions Precedent is

disclosed for the first time. The Unieuro Shares will be returned to their holders at no cost or expense to them.
As a consequence, in this case, the Issuer's Shares will continue to be traded on Euronext Milan.
A.16. Issuer's Statement
Pursuant to Article 103, Paragraph 3, of the CFA and Article 39 of the Issuers' Regulation, the board of directors of the Issuer is required to prepare and publish a statement containing all information useful to understand the Offer and its evaluation on the same. To this end, the board of directors of Unieuro will be assisted by Equita SIM S.p.A. and Mediobanca S.p.A. as independent financial experts.
The Issuer's employee representatives have the right to issue an independent opinion, pursuant to Article 103, Paragraph 3bis, of the CFA.
A.17. Rights of the Unieuro shareholders who tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer
The Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer will be bound to the Offer. The ownership of such Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer will be transferred to the Offerors on the Payment Date (or, in relation to the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period, if any, on the payment date following the Reopening of the Tender Period).
Until the Payment Date (or, in relation to the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period, if any, on the payment date following the Reopening of the Tender Period), the Unieuro shareholders who tender their Unieuro Shares in the Offer will retain and may exercise the administrative and economic rights arising from the ownership of the Unieuro Shares, but may not transfer or dispose of any of such Unieuro Shares, save for the purpose of tendering in competing tender offers or increased bids under Article 44 of the Issuers' Regulation.
For additional information, see Section F, Paragraph F.2, of the Offer Document.
A.18. Rights attached to the Offered Shares and tax regime
Tendering Unieuro shareholders will receive Fnac Shares as Share Portion of the Consideration and will become shareholders of Fnac Darty. Their rights as shareholders of Fnac Darty will be governed by the provisions of French corporate law applicable to Fnac Darty and by its articles of incorporation. As a result, there will be certain differences between the current rights of Unieuro shareholders and the rights they can expect to have as Fnac Darty's shareholders.
In addition, Italian financial intermediaries may impose differing fees to clients depending on the place of incorporation of the company whose shares are held by the client. The tax regime applicable in relation to the Fnac Shares may differ from the tax regime currently applicable to Unieuro shareholders in relation to their Unieuro Shares.
For information on the main administrative and economic rights attached to the Offered Shares under French law and Fnac Darty's articles of incorporation, as well as on the related tax regime, please see Section E, Paragraph E.7, of the Offer Document.

A.19. Fractions of Fnac Shares offered as Share Portion of the Consideration
Since no. 0.1 Fnac Shares will be offered in exchange for each Unieuro Share tendered in the Offer as Share Portion of the Consideration, the tendering Unieuro shareholders may be entitled to a non-integer number of Fnac Shares.
The Fractional Parts of such non-integer numbers of Fnac Shares will be regulated in accordance with Section F, Paragraph F.6, of the Offer Document.
It should be noted that, as a consequence of the assignment of the Share Portion of the Consideration, if a shareholder tenders to the Offer a number of Unieuro Shares lower than 10 (i.e. the minimum number of Unieuro Shares that, when multiplied by 0.1, allows to obtain at least 1 Fnac Share as Share Portion of the Consideration), such tendering shareholder will be entitled to receive only the Cash Amount of the Fractional Part.
A.20. Critical issues and the impact related to the national and international macroeconomic scenario
A.20.1. Possible impacts related to the Covid-19 pandemic sanitary emergency
As of the Offer Document Date, the national and international macroeconomic scenario is still, albeit to a lesser extent than in the recent past, affected by the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, there are still uncertainties regarding the evolution and effects of this pandemic, the adoption of restrictive measures by the authorities in the event of a worsening of the epidemiological picture, and the potential economic and financial impacts that could result. In addition, taking into account the current circumstances and those reasonably foreseeable as of the Date of the Offer Document, no material impact from the Covid-19 pandemic on the business of the Unieuro Group, described in Section B, Paragraph B.2.5, of the Offer Document below is expected.
In this regard, please note that the effectiveness of the Offer is subject to the MAC Condition as per Paragraph A.1, point (v), of this Section A of the Offer Document.
With reference to the future plans on the management of the Issuer (as described in Section A, Paragraph A.7, and Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document), the Offerors, taking into account the existing and reasonably foreseeable circumstances as of the Date of the Offer Document, do not foresee, at present, significant changes related to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
A.20.2. Critical issues related to international geopolitical tensions
As of the Date of the Offer Document, the macroeconomic scenario is severely impacted by the following conflicts:
(a) Israel-Palestine conflict
The conflict between Israel and Palestine is a long-term conflict involving territorial, political, religious and cultural issues.

The conflict has had a significant impact on the macroeconomic environment, both locally and internationally leading to regional political and economic

instability with global consequences, affecting financial markets, commodity prices, and international trade relations.
The Offerors believe, in view of the objectives of the Transaction, that the reasons for the Offer are not directly affected by the current geopolitical environment. However, in light of the uncertainties surrounding the development of the aforementioned conflicts and a possible escalation of politico-military tensions, as well as the possible financial crisis and/or economic recession that could ensue, as of the Date of the Offer Document it is not possible to predict whether the occurrence of the aforementioned events could affect the economic, capital and/or financial condition of the Offerors and/or the Issuer.
(b) Russian-Ukraine conflict
With specific reference to the increasing tensions in the international geopolitical environment arising from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the economic sanctions applied against the Russian economy, taking into account the current circumstances, the Offerors believe, at present, that the Issuer's activities as well as the rationale for the Offer are not affected by the current environment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in light of the uncertainties regarding the evolution of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the possible tightening of the aforementioned sanctions and restrictive measures, and, as to the relations between China and the U.S., a possible escalation of political-military tensions, and the possible financial crisis and/or economic recession that may ensue, as of the Date of the Offer Document, it is not possible to predict whether the occurrence of the aforementioned events may affect: (i) the Offer; and/or (ii) the Issuer's earnings, capital and/or financial condition.
With reference to Paragraphs (a) and (b) above, please note that the effectiveness of the Offer is subject to the MAC Condition as per Paragraph A.1, point (v), of this Section A of the Offer Document.
With reference to the future plans on the management of the Issuer (as described in Section A, Paragraph A.7, and Section G, Paragraph G.2, of the Offer Document), the Offerors, taking into account the existing and reasonably foreseeable circumstances as of the Date of the Offer Document, do not foresee, at present, any significant changes related to the impact of the above described geopolitical tensions.

In the event that the number of directors appointed by the shareholders' meeting exceeds eight members, a second director representing the employees shall be appointed within a period of six months following the appointment of the new director.
The director(s) representing the employees are appointed in the following ways: when a single director is to be appointed, the appointment is made by the trade union that has obtained the highest number of votes in the first round of the elections mentioned in articles L. 2122-1 and L. 2122-4 of the French Labor Code in the company and its direct or indirect subsidiaries, which has its registered office on French territory.

The Group's gross financial debt was €923 million, which was mainly comprised of:
- a €300 million bond issue maturing in May 2024, the refinancing of which was fully secured by an additional undrawn credit line in the form of a delayed drawn term loan (DDTL) maturing in December 2026 if it is drawn (with a confirmed option to extend to December 2027);
- a €350 million bond issue maturing in May 2026;
- a €200 million convertible bond issue (OCEANE) maturing in 2027.
After taking available cash (€1.1 billion) into account, the Group's net cash position stood at €198 million as of December 31, 2023.
In addition, the Group has an RCF credit line of €500 million, which was undrawn at the end of 2023. Its maturity date has been extended to March 2028 (with two further confirmed extension options of March 2029 and March 2030).

This strong liquidity position supports Group confidence to strategically allocate its resources in the most opportune way (M&A, debt reduction, shareholder return, etc.) while remaining attentive to its leverage ratio.
As of December 31, 2023, Fnac Darty is fully compliant with its contractual commitments relating to its bonds and corporate loans.

The financial year 2023 was marked by a lack of visibility on business activity given difficult macroeconomic context and market trends, with pressures on the purchasing power of consumers due notably to inflation. The Group faced a high level of inflation, which had a significant impact on household purchasing power. Against this backdrop, Fnac Darty once again demonstrated its resilience, thanks to its strategic choices, its positioning as a key player in omnichannel retailing and its rigorous cost control.
2023 revenue was €7,875 million, almost stable compared to 2022 (down by -0.9% in reported data and by -1.1% on a like-for-like basis1). Once again, the Group demonstrated its ability to outperform the market, the volumes of which have fallen compared to 2022.
The gross margin rate reached 30.2% in 2023, stable compared to 2022 excluding the dilutive impact of the franchise. The negative impact of the product mix (growth in gaming and telephony) was offset by a positive impact in the channel mix (increase in in-store sales) and the growth in services.
Operating costs increased by €30 million amounting €2,209 million in 2023. Performance plans were strengthened to improve productivity and the investment plan for reducing energy consumption was rolled out. These did not offset inflation-related increases, in particular the increased cost of energy (+€21 million), rents and payroll costs. The Group has therefore limited the overall increase in its costs to just +1.4% compared to 2022 (compared with an average inflation in France of +4% in 20232).
Current EBITDA3 amounted to €533 million, €264 million of which related to the application of IFRS 16, down -€47 million compared to 2022.
Current operating income was €171 million at the end of December 2023, down by -€60 million compared to 2022. A particularly sharp drop in sales in Spain and for Nature & Découvertes in the fourth quarter accounted for half of this decline. The remainder reflects the increase in the Group's operating costs. The operating margin rate was down, at 2.2%.
Non-current items amounted to -€131 million in 2023, compared to -€27 million in 2022. This amount includes:
1 Like-for-like basis – LFL: excludes the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates, changes in scope, and store openings and closures.
2 Note de conjoncture (economic forecast) – December 2023, INSEE.
3 Current EBITDA is defined as current operating income before net expense for depreciation, amortization and provisions on non-current operating assets recognized in current operating income.

- exceptional items of €106 million: a provision of €85 million for ADLC4 litigation and brand impairments of €20 million;
- other items of €25 million, stable compared to 2022, comprising the residual cost of the closure of Manor shop-in-shops in German-speaking Switzerland, riot-related costs and a provision for employees' rights to accrue paid leave during periods of sick leave. This provision reflects the Group's compliance with the rulings of the French supreme court (Cour de Cassation) and European law.
Net financial income was -€79 million, compared to -€45 million in 2022. The increase reflects:
- the cost of net financial debt remaining stable;
- IFRS 16 expenses up by +€11 million due to changes in interest rates;
- non-recurring items, including the depreciation and disposal of the stake in the Daphni Purple Fund (as a reminder, the Group's investment, since 2016, in the Daphni Purple fund recorded a cumulative capital gain on disposal of €10 million).
Tax expenses were -€31 million, an improvement compared to 2022, given the reduction in the Group's results. The effective tax rate was significantly impacted by the provision allocated in 2023 for fines imposed by the French Competition Authority, which is not tax deductible.
Restated to take account of the €106 million in exceptional non-current items described above, net income from continuing operations, Group share – adjusted5 totaled €31 million in 2023.

4 Fnac Darty decided to waive its right to contest the grievance notified to it by the French Competition Authority's investigation services concerning, in particular, a vertical agreement between Darty and some distributors over a limited period which ending in December 2014 – i.e., prior to Fnac's acquisition of Darty. This choice does not constitute neither an avowal nor an acknowledgment of responsibility on the part of the Group, but rather reflects its intention to bring a rapid close to a complex procedure and to be able to devote all its resources to the operational implementation of its "Everyday" strategic plan.

As at 30/06/2024, net value of right-of-use assets related to lease agreements was allocated as follows:

| (€ million) | H1 2024 |
|---|---|
| Stores | 921.0 |
| Offices | 60.7 |
| Platforms | 94.9 |
| Other | 48.3 |
| Total | 1124.9 |
In the first half of 2024, free cash-flow from operations, excluding IFRS 16, amounted to - €673 million, compared with -€660 million in the first half of 2023. The change mainly reflected the integration of MediaMarkt's business in Portugal. Net operating investments was +€38 million, due to asset disposals, notably a logistics warehouse.
The Group's net financial debt excluding IFRS 16 totaled €496 million on June 30, 2024. The change in net financial debt between December 31 and June 30 was due to the seasonal nature of business, with net debt on December 31 being structurally lower due to the high volume of business recorded at the end of the year.
The Group recorded a net cash position of €583 million on June 30, 2024. In addition, the Group benefits from undrawn revolving credit facility and Delayed Drawn Term Loan (DDTL) of €600 million, maturing in March 2028 (with two options to extend, in March 2029 and March 2030).
This strong liquidity position supports the Group's confidence in strategically allocating its resources in the most opportune way (M&A, debt reduction, shareholder return, etc.) while remaining attentive to its leverage ratio.
Furthermore, the Group is rated by the rating agencies Standard & Poor's, Scope Ratings and Moody's, which assigned ratings of BB+, BBB and BB+ respectively during 2023, with a negative outlook (S&P and Scope) or a stable outlook (Fitch). In July, following the announcement of the Unieuro acquisition project, Fitch and S&P have confirmed their ratings.
For the fourth consecutive year, Fnac Darty paid a dividend of €0.45 per share. This amount represents a 39% payout ratio, calculated on the net income from continuing operations, Group share –adjusted. This is in line with previous years and with the shareholder return policy presented in the strategic plan Everyday. The dividend was paid on July 5, 2024, totaling €12.5 million.

In Q2 2024, Group revenue amounted to €1,596 million, up +2.1% on a reported basis and +0.8% on a like-for-like basis from the previous year.
In H1 2024, Group revenue amounted €3,390 million, up +1.4% on a reported basis and +0.1% on a like-for-like basis from the first half of 2023.
In the first half of the year, Group performance is historically affected by the seasonal nature of the business, for which the main part of the earnings and of the free cash-flow from operations is recorded during the second half of the year.
The market, although still depressed, showed the first signs of recovery in the 2nd quarter. Against this backdrop, Fnac Darty is once again demonstrating its ability to outperform,

thanks to its strategic decisions and resilience, reflected in its tightly controlled margins. The Group thus returned to growth in the 2nd quarter, in all the geographical areas in which it operates.
In the first half-year, the gross margin rate was 31.0%. Excluding the dilutive impact of the franchise and changes in scope, it was up +10 basis points compared with the first half of 2023, driven by services, offsetting the adverse effects of the channel/product mix.
Operating expenses amounted to €1,086 million. Excluding the impact of MediaMarkt Portugal integration, they have slightly decreased compared to the first half of 2023. The embedded effect of rising rents, the full-year effect of the mandatory annual negotiation (Négociation Annuelle Obligatoire – NAO) and the inflation observed on other cost items have been offset by the decrease in energy costs and the efficiency of performance plans implemented across all the Group's divisions.
Current EBITDA amounted to €146 million (including €125 million related to the application of IFRS 16), stable compared with the first half of 2023.
Current operating income was -€36 million in the first half of 2024, stable compared with the first half of 2023, and a very slight improvement excluding the integration of MediaMarkt Portugal and the launch of Weavenn.
Non-current items came in at -€27 million for the half-year, mainly comprising restructuringrelated expenses for c.€11 million of which half concern Nature et Découvertes and the fair value adjustments of various IT projects for c. €15 million. Operating income was therefore a loss of -€63 million over the half-year.
Net financial income was -€37 million, compared with -€44 million in the first half of 2023. The change comes on one side from the increase in cost of net debt (€3 million) and on the other side from the increase in IFRS 16 expenses (€7 million) because of interest rate increase. The remaining comes from a capital loss on the disposal of the Daphni fund accounted in H1 2023.
After considering tax income of €27 million, net income from continuing operations, Group share for the first half of 2024 was down to -€75 million.

As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Group was involved in two reverse factoring programs with major Group suppliers.
For both reverse factoring programs, the analysis conducted under IFRS standards led to the conclusion that the change made to trade payables was non-substantial and that the characteristics of both programs remained similar to those of a trade payable with payment terms still compliant with France's law on the modernization of business practices. In the case of the Group's two reverse factoring programs, the liability remained a trade payable and thus they are part of net financial debt and therefore not considered by the above table. As of December 31, 2023, trade payables and other creditors included €138 million under a reverse factoring program. As of June 30, 2024, trade payables and other creditors included €59 million under a reverse factoring program.
At the end of February 2023, several stakeholders in the domestic appliances manufacturing and retail sector (including Darty) received a statement of objections from the investigation services of the French Competition Authority (Autorité de la Concurrence – ADLC) in which a number of suppliers were accused of having taken part in a vertical agreement with some of their retailers. Of all the objections issued by the French Competition Authority's services,

only one was aimed at on Darty. This objection spans a limited period that ended in December 2014, prior to Fnac's acquisition of Darty in 2016. Moreover, this objection relates to a limited number of well-identified product categories only. In order to bring a swift end to this complex procedure and to be able to devote all its resources to the operational implementation of its strategic plan Everyday, Fnac Darty decided on June 28, 2023 not to challenge the only objection of which it has been notified and to request a settlement proposal, as provided for in Article L. 464-2 of the French Commercial Code. This decision does not constitute an admission or acknowledgement of liability on Darty's part.
The exact amount of the penalty that could be imposed on Darty will not be known until the settlement proposal is received; in principle, this is expected during the 2nd semester of 2024. In anticipation of the French Competition Authority's decision to be made on that date, the Group made a provision for the sum of €85.0 million.
The General Meeting of Shareholders held on 29 May 2024 approved a dividend of €0.45 gross per share. It was paid in cash on 5 July 2024 in the amount of 12.5 million euros.
Some of the main long-term loans payable of the Fnac Group contain limitations and commitments on the part of the debtor companies (such as, for example, negative pledge clauses and covenants linked to the related financial debt and permitted guarantees).
It should be noted that on 8 August 2024 the Offerors have given notice that Fnac Darty has obtained from its lending banks the waivers required to implement the Offer and the overall Transaction and to prevent any technical breach under any existing facility agreement of Fnac Darty which would arise therefrom; as a result, the condition set forth in paragraph 3.5, number (vi), of the Offer Notice was deemed to be fulfilled.

Unieuro is today the leading distributor of consumer electronics and household appliances in Italy and operates as an integrated omnichannel distributor in following four main product segments:
- − Grey, including products such as telephony, tablets, information technology, phone accessories, cameras, as well as all wearable technology products;
- − White, including large household appliances such as washing machines, dryers, refrigerators or freezers and cookers, from small household appliances such as vacuum cleaners, kettles, coffee machines, as well as "home comfort" products, mainly related to the air conditioning segment;
- − Brown, including televisions and their accessories, smart-TV devices and car accessories, as well as from memory systems such as CDs/DVDs or USB sticks;
- − Other products, including entertainment-related products, such as consoles and video games, DVDs and Blu-rays, as well as all other items not included in the consumer electronics market, such as hoverboards or bicycles.
Unieuro offers in parallel a wide range of services such as delivery and installation, extended warranty and consumer financing.
Covercare S.p.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unieuro, is a company operating under Italian law with registered office in Legnano (MI), Corso Italia, 25. Covercare Center S.r.l., held by Covercare at 70% of its corporate capital, and Cybercare S.r.l., held by Covercare at 60% of its corporate capital, are companies operating under Italian law with headquarters in Corso Italia 25/A in Legnano (MI). The Covercare Group is one of the main players in Italy in the market of services for the repair of mobile phones, other portable devices and large household appliances, as well as operating in the field of air conditioning installation services and boiler installation and maintenance, and in the installation of photovoltaic systems. Finally, the Covercare Group markets mobile electronic products, IT and accessories to professional customers, mainly abroad.
Monclick S.r.l. in liquidation ("Monclick") is a company incorporated under Italian law - a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unieuro - with registered office in Milan, Via Marghera 28 and it was put into liquidation as of 3 November 2023, as part of a process of rationalisation of the corporate structure of Unieuro group. Monclick, previously active in the online sale of IT, electronics, telephony and household appliance products in Italy through the website www.monclick.it, has suffered a worsening of its economic, equity and financial situation in recent years, as a result of the trend in its reference markets, exacerbated by its business model of pure digital player.
The Unieuro Group's mission is to assist customers at all stages of their purchasing journey, placing them at the centre of an integrated ecosystem of products and services that sees accessibility, proximity and closeness as the pillars of its strategic approach. In this perspective, the Unieuro Group operates by means of the following five different integrated and converging distribution channels, following an approach inspired by the principles of territorial capillarity and proximity to the customer:

- − retail, by means of a network of 271 retail outlets (as of 29 February 2024), mainly located in northern and central Italy;
- − indirect, by means of a network of 254 points of sale (as of 29 February 2024), including the shop-in-shops within the "Iper, La grande I" hypermarkets and affiliated shops located mainly in central and southern Italy, in the historic centres of large cities and in small and medium-sized urban centres, which guarantee Unieuro's presence even in areas with limited catchment, which would not justify a direct commitment by Unieuro;
- − online, by means of, among others, the Unieuro's website and the Unieuro's app, through which Unieuro markets its products online, enabling customers to receive the purchased products at their home address (home delivery) or to collect them (click&collect) at one of the 481 authorised points of sale (as of 29 February 2024);
- − b2b, by means of wholesale to professional customers, including foreign ones, who operate in different sectors and occasionally need to make substantial purchases of electronic products (e.g. hoteliers), but also operators who need to purchase electronic products to distribute to their regular customers or employees in connection with point collections, prize competitions or incentive plans;
- − travel, by means of direct shops in several airports in Italy, including Bergamo-Orio al Serio and Naples Capodichino, and in the railway station of Turin Porta Nuova and the underground station of San Babila in Milan, i.e. locations characterised by high passenger traffic, for which Unieuro has set up a dedicated offer focusing mainly on telephony and accessories.

The Retail channel (70.1% of total revenues) - which at February 29, 2024 comprised 271 direct sales points, including the "Unieuro by Iper" shop-in-shops and the sales points located at major public transport hubs such as airports, railway stations and metro stations - saw sales of Euro 1,845.7 million, decreasing 6.1% on the previous fiscal year. The performance reflects the consumer electronics market, in view of the contraction in demand for Brown and Information Technology category products, partially offset by the strong entertainment, large domestic appliance and telecom segment performance.
The Online channel (16.5% of total revenues) - which includes the unieuro.it platform generated revenues of Euro 434.3 million in FY 2023/24, down 13.4% on the previous fiscal year. The decrease in revenues is mainly attributable to the decline in demand in the Brown and Grey categories and reflects the Company's focus on higher-margin sales channels.
The Indirect channel (9.0% of total revenues) - which includes sales made to the network of affiliated stores comprising a total of 254 sales points at February 29, 2024 - reports revenues of Euro 235.7 million, contracting 3.3% on the previous fiscal year. Revenues reflect the Consumer Electronics market and were partially offset by the good performance across all other product categories.
The B2B channel (4.5% of total revenues) - which caters to professional customers (including overseas) operating in sectors other than Unieuro's, such as hotel chains and banks, in addition to those purchasing electronic products to distribute to regular customers or employees for point collections, prize contests or incentive plans (B2B2C segment) - reported revenues of Euro 119.2 million, up 19.5% on the previous fiscal year, thanks to greater product availability and the contribution of Covercare, included in the consolidation from December 1, 2023.
Covercare generated revenues in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year of Euro 12.7 million, with 92% concerning the B2B channel and the remaining 8% the Retail channel.
The Grey category (49.0% of total revenues) - i.e. phones, tablets, information technology, phone accessories, cameras, in addition to all wearable products - generated revenues of Euro 1,290.8 million, down 3.8% on FY 2022/23. The category performance was affected by the settling of consumption in the Information Technology segment, following the record growth during the pandemic, and a contraction of the telephony segment after years of continual growth.
The White category (29.1% of total revenues) - comprising major domestic appliances (MDA), such as washing machines, dryers, refrigerators or freezers and stoves, small domestic appliances (SDA), such as vacuum cleaners, food processors and coffee machines, in addition to the air conditioning segment, reports revenues of Euro 767.5 million, substantially in line with the previous year. During the fiscal year, major domestic appliance segment growth offset the decline in the small domestic appliances and home comfort segments.

The Brown category (10.4% of revenues) - including televisions and related accessories, audio devices, smart TV devices, car accessories and data storage systems - reported revenues of Euro 274.6 million, a contraction of 33.7% on the previous fiscal year. The contraction is in line with the market trend, which reflects extraordinary sales related to the TV frequency switch-off and the TV Bonus in previous years.
The Other Products category (5.6% of total revenues) - which includes sales of both the entertainment sector and other products not included in the consumer technology market, such as electric scooters or bicycles - reported revenues of Euro 147.0 million in FY 2023/24, increasing 8.2% on the previous fiscal year. The entertainment segment saw strong growth in the year thanks to gaming console sales.
The Services category (5.9% of total revenues) - which includes, among others, sales of extended warranty, installation, home delivery and repair services, in addition to consumer credit services - reported revenues of Euro 155.0 million, up 2.9% on FY 2022/23, thanks to the strong consumer credit services sales which offset the drop in installation services. The category includes the contribution of Covercare from December 1, 2023.
Covercare revenues concern for 78% the Service category and for the remaining 22% the Grey category.
Adjusted EBIT in FY 2023/24 totalled Euro 34.8 million, compared to Euro 37.0 million in FY 2022/23, against a 6.3% reduction in revenues and the effects of a careful margin management policy and a cost streamlining plan. The gross profit decreased Euro 29.0 million on the previous year, mainly due to the reduction in Brown category sales volumes.
The gross profit margin was 21.4% in FY 2023/24, an improvement on 21.1% in the previous fiscal year due to the focus on higher-margin sales channels and product categories.
Marketing costs decreased Euro 7.3 million in the fiscal year, accounting for 1.4% of revenues (1.5% in FY 2022/23), thanks to incisive cost management and an altered marketing initiatives mix.
Logistics costs decreased Euro 4.8 million, accounting for 3.1% of revenues (3.0% in FY 2022/23). This reduction relates to the lower volumes handled due to lower sales in the year and a different product mix.
Personnel costs decreased Euro 0.4 million on the previous fiscal year, accounting for 7.8% of revenues (7.3% in FY 2022/23). The account reflects the optimisation of sales network personnel costs, partially offset by the increase from the inclusion of Covercare.
Other costs decreased Euro 18.5 million, accounting for 3.6% of revenues (4.0% in FY 2022/23). During the fiscal year, the cost of electricity reduced significantly due to a drop in the average market price of energy compared to the previous year, in addition to a reduction in consumption as a result of energy efficiency actions. Variable rents and sales commissions also decreased as a result of the lower volumes in the fiscal year.
Finally, amortisation, depreciation and write-downs of fixed assets amounted to Euro 109.0 million, increasing Euro 3.4 million on FY 2022/23. The increase concerns mainly amortisation, in view of the information technology investments made in previous years, in addition to other costs related to the implementation of new IT systems on the sales network.

Shareholders' Equity amounted to Euro 86.9 million at May 31, 2024 (Euro 96.9 million at February 29, 2024), with the decrease mainly relating to the recognition of the pre-tax loss.

The Retail channel – which at May 31, 2024 comprised 270 direct sales points, including the "Unieuro by Iper" shop-in-shops and the direct sales points located at major public transport hubs such as railway stations and metro stations – were impacted by markets developments, whereby overall demand levels contracted.
The Online channel – which includes the unieuro.it platform – saw a contraction, reflecting the Company's strategy of favouring higher-margin sales channels and was affected by the comparison with a particularly strong quarter.
The Indirect channel – which includes sales made to the network of affiliated stores comprising a total of 253 sales points at May 31, 2024 - reports a contraction in revenues due to general market developments.
The B2B channel – which caters to professional customers (including overseas) operating in sectors other than Unieuro's, such as hotel chains and banks, in addition to those purchasing electronic products to distribute to regular customers or employees for point collections, prize contests or incentive plans (B2B2C segment) – reported revenue growth thanks to the contribution of Covercare, included in the consolidation from December 1, 2023, and, to a lesser extent, to greater product availability.
The Grey category – comprising telephones, tablets, information technology, telephone accessories, cameras, in addition to all wearable technology products – was affected by the settling of consumption in the Information Technology segment, following the record sales during the pandemic, and a contraction of the telephony segment after years of continual growth.
The White category – comprising major domestic appliances (MDA), such as washing machines, dryers, refrigerators or freezers and stoves, small home appliances (SDA), such as vacuum cleaners, food processors and coffee machines, in addition to the air conditioning segment – saw a contraction across all segments.
The Brown category – including televisions and related accessories, audio devices, smart TV devices, car accessories and data storage systems – saw revenues contract, driven by the television segment which, although contracting, reports a more contained decrease than the

preceding quarters which followed the settlement of sales subsequent to the frequencies switch-off.
The Other Products category – which includes sales of both the entertainment sector and other products not included in the consumer electronics market, such as electric scooters or bicycles – was impacted by the entertainment segment (consoles and video games), which saw an extraordinary performance in the comparative period.
The Services category grew due to the contribution of the Covercare Group.
In the first quarter of FY25, which is unrepresentative as affected by typical consumer electronics market seasonality, the Unieuro Group reported an Adjusted EBIT loss of Euro 4.1 million, significantly improving on the comparative period (loss of Euro 8.5 million) – despite the contraction in sales revenues.
The gross profit increased Euro 3.4 million on the comparative period, with a 22.6% revenue margin improving on 20.4%, thanks to the initiatives undertaken to support the strategies to protect margins and the greater contribution from services.
Marketing costs decreased thanks to close cost management and a differing mix of marketing initiatives.
Logistics costs reduced due to the lower sales volumes and the reduced weight of online channel sales.
Other costs rose due to the contribution of Covercare, consolidated from December 1, 2023, partially offset by the decrease in variable sales costs as a result of the reduced volumes, in addition to the reduction in accessory lease costs.
Personnel costs increased mainly due to the inclusion in the consolidation scope of the Covercare Group companies, and the increase in personnel costs from the renewal of the national collective bargaining agreement, partially offset by the streamlining of the sales network.
Amortisation, depreciation and write-downs of fixed assets increased mainly due to the effect of investments in intangible assets in the preceding periods.

B.2.7. Recent trends
According to Unieuro Q1 Report 2024, the market performance and the Q1 results are in line with expectations. Within a still unstable geopolitical and macroeconomic environment, the Consumer Electronics market is forecast to recover in the second half of the year, supported by the expected drop in inflation and the consequent increase in consumer spending power, by the forecast renewal of electronics products purchased during the pandemic, in addition to the technological innovation linked to artificial intelligence. The Unieuro Group confirmed the guidance for FY 2024/25 announced to the market, with Revenues in line with the previous year and Adjusted EBIT in the Euro 35-40 million range, thanks to the continued policy to closely focus on margins and operating costs. Net Cash at February 28, 2025 is expected to substantially be in line with the end of the previous fiscal year. Unieuro remains committed to executing the "Beyond Omni-Journey" Strategic Plan and to developing its increasingly services-focused business model, also thanks to the progressive integration of Covercare.

E. PRICE PER SHARE AND ITS JUSTIFICATION
E.1. Description of the Consideration
Should the Conditions Precedent be fulfilled (or waived as applicable) and the Offer become effective, the Offerors will pay a Consideration equal to:
- (i) Euro 9.00, as Cash Portion, and
- (ii) no. 0.1 newly issued Fnac Shares listed on Euronext Paris, as Share Portion,
for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer.
Therefore, for every no. 10 Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer, Euro 90.00 and no. 1 newly issued Fnac Share will be paid to the tendering shareholders of Unieuro. No fractional Fnac Shares will be issued, hence only a cash equivalent will be paid to tendering Unieuro shareholders entitled to Fractional Parts of a Fnac Share. Please refer to Section F, Paragraph F.6, of the Offer Document for the treatment of Fractional Parts of Fnac Shares resulting from the assignment of the Share Portion of the Consideration.
The Consideration, in the form of the Share Portion and the Cash Portion, will be paid on the Payment Date, i.e. 1 November 2024, unless the Tender Period is extended in accordance with applicable law and regulatory provisions, or, in the event of tendering during the Reopening of the Terms, on the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period, i.e. 15 November 2024, unless the Tender Period is extended in accordance with applicable law and regulatory provisions.
The Offered Shares delivered as Share Portion of the Consideration for the Unieuro Shares will have regular dividend entitlement, will belong to the same category of and will have the same rights as the existing shares of Fnac Darty at the date of their issue. The Offered Shares will be admitted to trading on Euronext Paris as of the Payment Date, or on the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period.
The Consideration is intended to be net of any Italian stamp duty, registration tax or financial transaction tax, to the extent due, and of fees, commissions and expenses, which will be borne by the Offerors, while any income, withholding or substitute tax on capital gains, if due, will be borne by the shareholders tendering to the Offer.
The Consideration has been set on the assumption that the Issuer will not resolve and implement any distribution of ordinary or extraordinary dividends from profits or reserves/premium; should this be the case, the Consideration will automatically be reduced by an amount equal to any distribution (including dividend, interim dividend, reserves or premium distribution) paid for each Unieuro Share.
The valuation analysis conducted by the Offerors for the purposes of determining the Consideration had the following main limitations and difficulties:
- (i) for the purposes of its analysis, the Offerors have solely used data and information of a public nature, mainly taken from the consolidated financial statements of Unieuro;
- (ii) the Offerors have not performed any financial, legal, commercial, tax, business or other due diligence on the Issuer;

- (iii) the financial projections contained in Unieuro investor presentations are not sufficiently detailed to be able to determine the Unieuro operational cash flow forecasts for the purpose of applying fundamental valuation methods;
- (iv) the Unieuro historic "non-recurring costs" are significant (Euro 16.8m in FY 2023/24, Euro 10.8m in FY 2022/23 and Euro 14.5m in FY 2021/22 at EBIT level, comprising mainly of M&A costs, store openings, relocations and closing costs, adjustments related to change in the business model (i.e. extended warranties) and other non-recurring costs) and estimates of future "non-recurring costs" are not provided;
- (v) the limited nature of information for precisely estimating synergies, their phasing as well as their associated implementation costs.
Therefore, in view of the above limitations and valuation difficulties, the Offerors, for the purposes of determining the Consideration, used a valuation approach based on market methods. Specifically, the methodology used in the determination of the Consideration was the "stock market trading prices" method. The valuation of Unieuro obtained by applying the stock market trading prices method was crosschecked by applying the i) "analysts target price" and ii) "market multiples" methods.
It should be noted that for the purpose of determining the Consideration, the Offerors did not make use of expert opinions or valuation documents prepared by third parties for the purpose of assessing or analysing the fairness thereof.
E.1.1. Criteria used for determining the Consideration
The following is a summary description of each of the methods applied in order to determine the Consideration.
A. Stock market trading prices method
the stock market trading prices method applies market prices as relevant information to assessing the economic value of companies, based on stock prices expressed during trading sessions recorded over intervals deemed significant and on the assumption of the efficiency of the market on which the company is listed and of a degree of significance between the prices expressed by the market for the shares of the companies being valued and their economic value.
To the extent of this analysis, it was deemed appropriate to apply this method adopting the official prices of the shares of Unieuro recorded on 15 July 2024 (i.e. the last Trading Day before the Announcement Date) and the average official prices weighted by the volumes of the shares of Unieuro with a reference period of 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months prior to the Announcement Date.
Based on the closing price of Fnac Shares equal to Euro 30.20, as recorded on 15 July 2024, the Consideration – taking into account both the Cash Portion and Share Portion - corresponds to an implied monetary value equal to Euro 12.02 for each Unieuro Share and, therefore, incorporates the following premiums:

| Reference date / period |
Weighted average price per Unieuro Share (in Euro) |
Difference between the implied monetary value of the Consideration and the VWAP of Unieuro Shares (Euro) |
Implied premium of the Consideration (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 July 2024 | 8.45 | 3.57 | 42.26% |
| 1-month VWAP | 8.60 | 3.42 | 39.77% |
| 3-month VWAP | 8.95 | 3.07 | 34.30% |
| 6-month VWAP | 9.06 | 2.96 | 32.68% |
| 1-year VWAP | 9.28 | 2.74 | 29.58% |
Source: Bloomberg as of 15 July 2024.
The per share monetary value implied in the Share Portion of the Consideration, taking into account the closing price per share of Fnac Darty equal to Euro 30.20 as recorded on 15 July 2024 (i.e. the last Trading Day before the Announcement Date), and based on no. 0.1 newly issued Fnac Shares listed on the Euronext Paris, as Share Portion, corresponds to Euro 3.02 for each Unieuro Share tendered to the Offer.
B. Analysts target prices method
The analysts target prices method determines the value of a company based on the target valuations published by financial analysts in reference to the company. Target prices are indications of value that express an assumption on the prices that a share can reach on the stock market and are based on several valuation methods at the discretion of the individual market analyst.
The following criteria compares the values of Unieuro resulting from the studies carried out by the research analysts of leading national and international investment banks in order to compare the relevant official target prices and therefore determine the theoretical economic capital value of Unieuro resulting from the average of these targets.
For Unieuro, only reports published from 13 May 2024 (included) were taken into account, between the date of publication of Unieuro financial results (29 February 2024) and the Announcement Date, as indicated below:
| Broker | Date | Rating | Target Price (in Euro) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mediobanca | 15/07/2024 | Hold | 10.00 |
| Kepler Cheuvreux | 12/07/2024 | Hold | 10.00 |
| Banca Akros | 12/07/2024 | Hold | 10.00 |
| Average | 10.00 |
Source: Bloomberg as of 15 July 2024.

C. Trading market multiples method
According to the trading market multiples method, the value of a company is determined by reference to the indications provided by the stock market with regard to companies with characteristics similar to the company subject to valuation.
The criterion is based on determining multiples calculated as the relationship between the market values and the profit or balance sheet performance of a selected sample of comparable companies. The resulting multipliers are applied, with the appropriate additions and adjustments, to the corresponding figures of the company subject to valuation, in order to estimate a range of values. For the purposes of the Offer, on the basis of the characteristics of the electronics retail sector and market practice and in line with research analysts' valuation methodology for listed players in the electronics retail sector, EV / EBIT multiple post IFRS 16 has been considered the most relevant valuation metric.
The EV/EBIT post-IFRS 16 (i.e. EBIT post application of accounting standard IFRS 16 on leasing, excluding expenses for off balance sheet leases from operating expenses) value was obtained by calculating the ratio between the Enterprise Value ("EV"), calculated as the sum of a company's market capitalisation, net financial debt, pension obligation liabilities, provisions for risks and charges and third-party equity, less investments in associates valued using the equity method and other non-operating equity components or components valued separately, and the EBIT post-IFRS 16 before non-recurring costs and revenue for 2024 and 2025 financial years.
For the purposes of the analysis, the following sample of listed European large and medium companies were considered only partially comparable to the Issuer:
- (i) Ceconomy (Germany): listed in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Ceconomy is an international retail company specialized in consumer electronics, home appliances and cultural products. In 2017, it was spun off from Metro, a German retailer. The firm's brands include MediaMarkt, Saturn, iBood and Juke. It operates in the DACH region, (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary), in Western, Southern and Eastern Europe. The company was founded in 1996 and is headquartered in Dusseldorf, Germany;
- (ii) Fnac Darty (France): listed in France on the Euronext Paris, Fnac Darty is a leading European retailer of entertainment and leisure products, consumer electronics, home appliances and services and is a major player in the geographic markets in which it operates, including Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg. Fnac Darty also has franchise operations in Cameroon, Congo, Ivory Coast, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, and Tunisia. Fnac's takeover of Darty in 2016 has created a European leader in omnichannel specialized consumer electronics retailing. The company was founded in 1954 and is headquartered in Ivry-sur-Seine, France;
- (iii) Currys (United Kingdom): listed in the United Kingdom on the London Stock Exchange, Currys is a British electrical retailer and aftercare service provider operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland, specialising in white goods, consumer electronics, computers and mobile phones. It operates in the United Kingdom, Ireland and the Nordics. The company was founded in 1937 and is headquartered in London, the United Kingdom;

(iv) LDLC (France): listed in France on the Euronext Paris, LDLC is a French retail company specialized in the distribution of computer equipment for individual consumers and professionals. It also offers installation and technical training, and e-business development consulting services. The company was founded in 1996 and is headquartered in Limonest, France.
It should be noted, however, that in the Offerors' opinion such companies are deemed only partially comparable to Unieuro, in light of the different size of such companies, their reference market and geographical exposure. Therefore, trading market multiples may turn out not to be relevant or representative if considered in relation to Unieuro's specific economic, equity and financial situation or to the economic and regulatory context of reference.
E.2. Total value of the Offer
The Offer is for (a) up to no. 19,936,096 Unieuro Shares, representing all of the issued Unieuro Shares as of the Date of the Offer Document after exclusion of no. 913,412 Unieuro Shares already held by Fnac Darty, including the Treasury Shares directly or indirectly held by the Issuer, as well as (b) up to no. 8,697 Additional Shares.
If all of the Shares Subject to the Offer are tendered (assuming the issuance of all of the Additional Shares):
- (i) a maximum amount of Euro 179,503,137, as maximum aggregate amount of the Cash Portion, will be paid to the tendering Unieuro shareholders (other than the Offerors); and
- (ii) a maximum of no. 1,994,480 newly issued Fnac Shares, as maximum aggregate amount of the Share Portion, will be issued to the tendering Unieuro shareholders (other than the Offerors), representing approximately 6.70% of Fnac Darty's share capital following the execution of the Offer Capital Increase.
In light of the above, the Aggregate Maximum Disbursement, calculated on the basis of the Cash Portion of the Consideration and the implied monetary value of the Share Portion of the Consideration (determined taking as a reference the closing price of Fnac Shares as of 15 July 2024 and based on no. 0.1 Offered Shares, equal to Euro 3.02), assuming that all Shares Subject to the Offer (including all of the Additional Shares) are tendered to the Offer, is equal to Euro 239,736,412.

Notes: calendarized financials at 31/12 except for Unieuro, as of 29/02. The data reflect the application of accounting standard IFRS 16. Enterprise Value (EV) calculated as the sum of the market capitalization of comparable companies (closing prices as of 15 July 2024, net of treasury shares) and the most recent data on net financial position plus, where applicable, additional adjustments such as pension liabilities, investments in associates, non-controlling interests, etc. P / E multiple computed based on the capitalization of comparable companies (closing prices as of 15 July 2024).
The multiples above were prepared on the basis of historical data and publicly available information (and on the basis of subjective parameters and conditions determined in accordance with commonly applied methodologies) and are provided solely as an additional information, by way of example and without any claim to completeness.
In relation to the multiples reported above, the multiples of the Issuer result to be at premium with respect to the average and median of the EV / EBIT multiple, the P / E multiple and the P / Shareholders' Equity multiple of the sample of selected listed companies. For the EV / EBITDA multiple, the multiples of the Issuer result to be at premium for 2022 and in line for 2023. For the P / Cash Flow multiple, the multiples of the Issuer result to be at discount for 2022 and at premium for 2023. The figures refer to companies that are considered potentially comparable, and in some cases only partially comparable; therefore, these figures may not be relevant or representative when considered in relation to the Unieuro's specific economic, equity and financial situation or to the economic and regulatory context of reference.
These multiples have been prepared solely for the purpose of their inclusion in the Offer Document and in compliance with the requirements governing the contents of the Offer Document. Therefore, they may not be the same in different, albeit similar, transactions; the existence of different market conditions could also lead, in good faith, to analyses and valuations, in whole or in part, different from those represented.
It should also be noted that the significance of some of the multiples shown in the above table may be affected by changes in the scope of consolidation of certain companies, the application of accounting standards (e.g. IFRS 16) and/or the presence of elements of an extraordinary nature in the financial statements of these companies that could influence these multiples.

E.7. Description of the Fnac Shares offered as Share Portion of the Consideration
E.7.1. Description of the Fnac Shares
The Offered Shares that will be required as Share Portion of the Consideration will be issued out of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Offered Shares will have the same rights and currency (Euro) as the existing shares of Fnac Darty and will be issued and governed pursuant to French law. The Fnac Shares are financial instruments to be held in registered form or bearer form, at the holders' discretion, unless agreed otherwise with Fnac Darty. The Fnac Shares are indivisible and freely transferable.
E.7.2. Rights attached to the Fnac Shares
As from their issuance, the Fnac Shares will be subject to all of the provisions of Fnac Darty's by-laws.
Based on applicable French laws and the provisions of Fnac Darty's by-laws, the main rights attached to the Fnac Shares are as follows.
Dividend rights
Fnac Darty's shareholders will be entitled to share in the profits under the conditions set out in Articles L. 232-10 et seq. of the French Commercial Code (Code de commerce) and Fnac Darty's by-laws.
After approving the financial statements and recognizing distributable profit, the shareholders' meeting decides whether to allocate profits to one or more reserve accounts (the allotment or use of which it regulates), or allocate them to retained earnings, or distribute them. The ordinary shareholders' meeting, or any other shareholders' meeting, may decide to distribute sums and/or securities paid in cash or in kind from the reserves available to it, by expressly naming the reserve accounts from which the payments are made. However, the dividends are paid first from the year's distributable profit. The shareholders' meeting has the right to grant shareholders the option to receive payment in cash or in shares, subject to applicable laws and regulations, for all or part of the dividend or interim dividend. In addition, the shareholders' meeting may decide that, for all or part of any dividend, interim dividend, distributed reserves or premiums, or capital decreases, this distribution of dividend, reserves or premium or this capital decrease may be carried out through in kind distribution of company assets. Each shareholder has a share in the profit and contribution to loss in proportion to the number and nominal value of existing shares.
The payment of dividends must take place within nine months of the end of the relevant financial year. This deadline may be extended by a court order (Art. L. 232-13 of the French Commercial Code).

Any action brought against Fnac Darty for the payment of dividends owed with respect to the Fnac Shares will become time-barred upon the expiration of a period of five years from their due date. Furthermore, dividends will also be forfeited to the benefit of the French State upon the expiry of a period of five years from their due date.
Given the ambitions outlined on 23 February 2021, when the strategic plan Everyday was announced, Fnac Darty reactivated its shareholder return policy in 2021. For 2023, the Fnac Group has distributed a dividend of Euro 0.45 per share, paid on 5 July 2024.
In addition, each year, the Fnac Group will look at the possibility of making an additional distribution to shareholders in the form of an exceptional dividend or share buyback, after financing any M&A transactions and paying the ordinary dividend, all while maintaining its leverage ratio.
The target for the Fnac Group is twofold: to secure a recurring dividend distribution for shareholders and to ensure an acceptable level of debt over the long term.
Voting rights
The voting rights attached to Fnac Shares are proportional to the percentage of capital they represent. For the same par value, each Fnac Share gives right to one vote. As provided by Fnac Darty's by-laws, under the terms of the resolution twenty of the combined general meeting of May 29, 2015, it was decided not to grant double voting rights as introduced by Law 2014-384 of March 29, 2014.
Threshold crossings
Pursuant to Art. L. 233-7 and seq. of the French Commercial Code and Articles 223-11 and seq. of the AMF Regulation, any individual or legal entity, acting alone or in concert, who comes into possession of a number of shares that represent more than 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 1/3, 50%, 2/3, 90% or 95% of the share capital or voting rights of a French company having its shares listed on a regulated market in a Member party to the European Economic Area Agreement, such as Fnac Darty, shall inform such company and the AMF of the total number of shares or voting rights that it holds within four Trading Days as from the date on which the crossing of the threshold occurred. In addition, the crossing of the 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% thresholds also triggers the obligation for the shareholder to include in its notification the goals vis-à-vis the company it intends to pursue for the next six months.
Notification shall also be made to Fnac Darty and the AMF, within the same time frame, when the shareholding falls below the thresholds indicated in the preceding paragraph.
In the event of a failure to comply with the above described obligations, any shares held in excess of the threshold that should have been notified are deprived of voting rights for any shareholders' meeting held during a two-year period following the regularization date at which the notification is made. In addition, the competent commercial court, after having heard the Public Prosecutor's Office, and upon request from the company's chairperson, a shareholder or the AMF, may order a total or partial suspension, for a period of up to five years, of the voting rights against any shareholder who has not complied with its notification obligations. A EUR 18,000 fine of may also be imposed.

Furthermore, according to Fnac Darty's by-laws, as long as the Fnac Shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market, in addition to the legal obligation to notify the company of holding certain percentages of the share capital, any natural or legal person acting alone or collectively, who holds or ceases to hold, directly or indirectly, a percentage of the Fnac Darty's share capital or voting rights of 3% or more or any multiple of 1% above 3% has an obligation to notify the company by registered letter sent by recorded delivery within the time provided for in Article R. 233-1 of the French Commercial Code (i.e., as of the date hereof, at the latest on the close of trading on the fourth day of trading following the date of the crossing of the ownership threshold). The provisions of paragraph VI bis of Article L. 233-7 of the French Commercial Code and of the General Regulations of the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers apply mutatis mutandis. If not notified in accordance with the above, shares exceeding the fraction that should have been notified shall be stripped of their voting rights in shareholders' meetings, if, at a shareholders' meeting, the failure to notify has been noted and if one or more shareholders, holding together at least 3% of the company's share capital or voting rights, request so at this shareholders' meeting. Such deprivation of voting rights applies to all shareholders' meetings held until expiry of a two-year period following the date on which the declaration is regularized.
In addition, for so long as the Fnac Shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market, the company is authorized, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to use the methods authorized under applicable regulation to identify the holders of securities that grant immediate or future voting rights at the company's shareholders' meetings.
Preferential subscription rights attached to shares of the same class
The Fnac Shares carry a preferential subscription right in case of a capital increase. Shareholders will have, pro rata to their existing interest in the share capital, a preferential right to subscribe in cash for shares issued as part of an immediate or future increase in share capital. During the subscription period, preferential subscription rights may be traded when detached from the underlying Fnac Shares, which themselves are also tradable. Preferential subscription rights may be transferred on the same basis as the Fnac Shares themselves. The shareholders may individually waive their preferential subscription rights (Art. L. 225-132 and L. 228-91 to L. 228-93 of the French Commercial Code).
Right to the surplus in the event of liquidation
Any shareholders' equity remaining after repayment of the nominal value of the Fnac Shares will be shared between shareholders in the same proportion as their ownership interest in the authorized share capital (Art. L. 237-29 of the French Commercial Code).
Buyback and conversion clauses
Fnac Darty's by-laws do not provide for any share buyback or conversion clause in respect of the Fnac Shares.
E.7.3. Admission to trading of the Fnac Shares
The Offered Shares will be listed and traded on Euronext Paris. The listing of the Offered Shares will take place automatically, in accordance with the provisions of the stock exchange

rules of Euronext Paris, since they will be fungible with, and have the same characteristics as, the Fnac Shares that are already listed.
The Fnac Shares will be admitted to trading and available for trading on Euronext Paris as of the Payment Date.
The Fnac Shares delivered as Share Portion of the Consideration for the Fnac Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period, if any, will be admitted to trading and available for trading on Euronext Paris on the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period.
The Fnac Shares delivered as Share Portion of the Consideration to comply with the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or to exercise the Right to Squeeze-out will be admitted to trading and available for trading on Euronext Paris on the respectively applicable payment dates.
The Fnac Shares will represent, over a period of 12 months, less than 20% of the number of ordinary Fnac Shares already admitted to trading on the same regulated market and, consequently, in accordance with Article 1, Paragraph 5, letter a), of Regulation (EU) 1129/2017, there is no obligation to publish a prospectus for the listing of the Offered Shares.
E.7.4. Tax treatment of the Fnac Shares
The following is a general summary of certain French and Italian tax consequences of the acquisition of Fnac Shares pursuant to the Offer, and their holding and disposal. It does not purport to be a complete analysis of all tax considerations that may be relevant to the exchange of Unieuro Shares for Fnac Shares under the Offer and to the decision to acquire, hold or dispose of the Fnac Shares, and does not purport to describe the tax consequences applicable to all categories of prospective investors, some of which may be subject to special rules.
However, please note that this information is only a summary, given for general information purposes, of the tax regime applicable under current legislation.
This summary is based upon French and Italian tax laws, regulations and/or practice at the date hereof, subject to any changes in law, regulation and/or practice occurring after such date, which could be made on a retroactive basis.
This summary will not be updated to reflect changes in law or practice and, if any such change occurs, the information in this summary could be superseded. Please note that, pursuant to the delegation law No. 111 dated 9 August 2023 (published in the Official Gazette, General Series, n. 189 of 14 August 2023), the Italian Parliament approved a set of general principles and criteria enabling the Government to implement a full reform of the Italian tax system, including the tax regimes applicable to dividends and capital gains. Therefore, the information provided with this summary may be subject to material amendments in the upcoming future.
This section does not address the tax regime applicable to investors deciding not to join the Offer and keeping their Unieuro Shares consequently.
Prospective investors are urged to consult their usual tax advisers as to the overall tax consequences of the acquisition of Fnac Shares pursuant to the Offer, their holding and

disposal and of receiving payments of dividends from Fnac Darty and verify that the provisions summarized below actually apply to them.
A. French Taxation
The following is a general summary of certain French tax consequences of the acquisition of Fnac Shares pursuant to the Offer, their holding and disposal that may apply to shareholders who are not French resident for tax purposes. French residents for tax purposes are urged to consult their usual tax advisers to determine the tax regime applicable to their situation.
(i) Exchange of Unieuro Shares for Fnac Shares under the Offer
Capital gains realized on the exchange of Unieuro Shares for Fnac Shares by shareholders who are not French residents for tax purposes should not be taxable in France as the exchange relates to Unieuro Shares as Unieuro does not have its registered office in France (Art. 244 bis B and Art. 244 bis C of the French tax code ("FTC")).
(ii) Dividends
According to the tax laws and regulations of France currently in force as of the date hereof and subject to provisions of any applicable double tax treaty ("DTT"), the following generally summarizes certain French withholding tax consequences with respect to dividends distributions paid with respect to Fnac Shares that may apply to shareholders (i) who are not French residents for tax purposes within the meaning of Art. 4 B of the FTC or whose registered office is located outside France and (ii) who do not hold their Fnac Shares through a permanent establishment or a fixed base situated therein and subject to taxation in France.
The dividends distributed by Fnac Darty are in principle subject to a withholding tax, withheld by the paying agent of those dividends, where the residence for tax purposes or registered office of the beneficial owner is located outside France.
Subject to the exceptions stated below and the provisions of DTTs, the withholding tax rate is set at a rate of (i) 12.8% if the beneficial owner is an individual; (ii) 15% if beneficial owner is a non-profit organization which have its registered office in a member State of the European Union ("EU") or in member State of the European Economic Area ("EEA") which has concluded with France a DTT providing for administrative assistance against tax evasion, to the extent that such organization would be taxed such as if it had its registered office in France (Art. 206, 5 of the FTC; BOI-IS-CHAMP-10-50-10-40-20130325, n°580 and seq.) and (iii) 25% in all other cases.
Furthermore, according to Art. 187, 2 of the FTC, regardless of the residence for tax purposes or the registered office, dividends paid in a non-cooperative State or territory within the meaning of Art. 238-0 A of the FTC ("NCST"), except NCSTs mentioned by paragraph 2 bis-2° of Art. 238-0 A of the FTC, are subject to French withholding tax at a rate of 75%, except if the distributing company proves that the relevant dividend distribution has neither the purpose nor the effect of allowing it to be located in such NCST for the purpose of tax evasion. The list of the NCSTs is published by ministerial decree which may be updated at any time but at least once a year. The most recent list was published on February 16th, 2024, with effect from May 1st, 2024; according to it, only Anguilla, Seychelles, Bahamas, Turks and Caicos

Islands and Vanuatu are currently concerned by the withholding tax rate of 75% (Arrêté of February 16th, 2024, n°ECOE2404539A).
Shareholders that are legal persons may benefit from a reduction or an exemption of withholding tax (i) under Art. 119 ter of the FTC which applies under certain conditions, including beneficial ownership condition, to certain legal entities having their effective place of management in a member State of the EU or in member State of the EEA which has concluded with France a DTT providing for administrative assistance against tax evasion, if they hold at least 10% of the capital of the distributing company during two years and otherwise meet all the conditions of such Art. as construed by the French tax authorities ("FTA") guidelines (BOI-RPPM-RCM-30-30-20-10-20190703), it being however specified that (a) the ownership threshold is reduced to 5% of the capital of the distributing company where the legal person being the beneficial owner of the dividends meets the conditions to benefit from the French participation exemption regime provided by Art. 145 and Art. 216 of the FTC and has no possibility to offset the French withholding tax in its State of residence for tax purposes, and (b) the ownership thresholds are assessed taking into account shares held both in full or bare ownership, or (ii) pursuant to the provisions of the applicable DDT.
Shareholders that are legal persons may also benefit from an exemption of withholding tax under Art. 119 quinquies of the FTC which applies to legal entities having their effective place of management in a member State of the EU or in another State or territory that has concluded with France a DTT providing for administrative assistance against tax evasion, provided that they are subject to a judicial liquidation (or where there is no such procedure available, in a situation of cessation of payments (cessation de paiement) with recovery being manifestly impossible) and otherwise meet all the conditions of Art. 119 quinquies of the FTC as described by the FTA guidelines (BOI-RPPM-RCM-30-30-20-80-20220629).
Moreover, dividends distributed to collective investment undertakings incorporated under foreign law which (i) are located in a member State of the EU or in another State or territory that has concluded with France a DTT providing for administrative assistance against tax evasion which meets the conditions mentioned by Art. 119 bis, 2 of the FTC, (ii) raise capital from a number of investors with the purpose to investing it, in accordance with a defined investment policy, in the interests of those investors, and (iii) have characteristics similar to those of French collective investment undertakings listed by the FTA (BOI-RPPM-RCM-30-30- 20-70-20211006, n°40), also benefit from a withholding tax exemption.
Shareholders are urged to consult their usual tax advisers to determine whether they are likely to fall within the scope of the legislation relating to NCSTs, or to qualify for a reduction to or exemption from withholding tax by virtue of the application of a DTT, and to determine the practical formalities to be filed with to benefit from the relevant DTT, including those provided for by the FTA relating to the so-called "standard" or "simplified" procedure for the reduction of or exemption from withholding tax (BOI-INT-DG-20-20-20-20-20120912).
In addition, shareholders who are not French residents for tax purposes will have to comply with applicable tax laws of their State of residence for tax purposes and the applicable DTT entered into between France and their State of residence for tax purposes.
(iii) Capital Gains

Subject to any DTT and any specific rule that may apply to individuals having received, acquired or subscribed their shares as part of an employee incentive plan (stock option plan, free share plan, etc.) or of an employee stock subscription or acquisition plan, capital gains arising from the disposal of their Fnac Shares by a shareholder who is not French resident for tax purposes within the meaning of Art. 4 B of the FTC or legal persons or others organizations whose registered office is located outside of France (and the ownership of whose shares is not connected to a fixed base or a permanent establishment subject to taxation in France on the balance sheet of which the shares are recorded as an asset) and that have at no time during the five (5) years preceding the disposal held, directly or indirectly, alone or together with the members of their family, a stake representing more than 25% of the rights in Fnac Darty's earnings are in principle not subject to taxation in France (Art. 244 bis B and Art. 244 bis C of the FTC).
However, when the capital gains are realized by shareholders that are incorporated, domiciled or established in a NCST, except a NCST mentioned by paragraph 2 bis-2° of Art. 238-0 A of the FTC, they will be taxed at the rate of 75%, regardless of the percentage of ownership of the relevant shareholder, except if the relevant shareholder who realizes the disposal proves that the transaction has neither the purpose nor the effect of allowing such capital gain to be located in such NCST. The NCSTs concerned are the same as those mentioned above for dividends.
Where relevant, the disposal of the shares will trigger the termination of any payment deferral that may have been available to individuals subject to the "exit tax" rules set out in Art. 167bis of the FTC in the context of the transfer of their residence for tax purposes outside of France. Such individuals are urged to consult their usual tax advisers.
(iv) Shareholders subject to a different tax regime
Shareholders subject to a tax regime other than those referred to above are urged to consult their usual tax advisers to determine the tax regime applicable to their situation.
(v) Transfer tax or financial transaction tax
In principle, no transfer tax is due in France on the disposal of shares in a listed company that has his registered office in France, unless the disposal is recorded in a deed signed in France or abroad (Art. 726, I-1° of the FTC; BOI-ENR-DMTOM-40-10-10-20240424, n°40).
In the latter case, unless the transaction is subject to the French financial transaction tax ("French FTT"), the disposal of shares is subject to a transfer tax at the rate of 0.1% based on the higher of the sale price or the fair market value of the shares, subject to certain exceptions provided for by Art. 726, II of the FTC. According to Art. 1712 of the FTC, the transfer tax that would be due will be borne by the transferee (unless otherwise contractually stipulated). However, according to Art. 1705 of the FTC, all parties to the deed will be jointly and severally liable to the FTA for the payment of the taxes.
According to Art. 235 ter ZD of the FTC, subject to certain exceptions and in particular subject to the exemption of primary issuances, a 0.3% French FTT applies to any acquisition for consideration of an equity security or similar security, if (a) this security is listed on a regulated market, (b) its acquisition gives rise to a transfer of ownership, and (c) this security is issued

by a French company whose market capitalization exceeds EUR 1 billion as of December 1st of the year preceding the taxation year. In any cases, the French FTT wouldn't be applied to issuance of Fnac Shares.
Neither the transfer tax set forth in Art. 726 of the FTC, nor the French FTT would be applied to the issuance of Fnac Shares in the context of the Offer. In addition, given that Fnac Darty did not have a market capitalisation exceeding EUR 1 billion euros on December 1st, 2023, disposals of Fnac Shares in 2024 should not be subject to the French FTT and should only be subject to the transfer tax set forth in Art. 726 of the FTC if the disposal is recorded in a deed executed in France or abroad.
(vi) Inheritance or gift taxes
In principle, Fnac Shares acquired by way of inheritance or gift by an individual who is not French resident for tax purposes fall within the scope of French inheritance tax or gift tax, regardless the residence for tax purposes of the transferor.
However, France has concluded DTTs with certain jurisdictions to avoid double taxation on inheritance or gifts, which could exempt individuals who are resident for tax purposes in these jurisdictions or reduce or eliminate the double taxation.
Shareholders are urged to consult their usual tax advisers regarding their obligations concerning inheritance or gift taxes in respect of their interest in Fnac Darty, and the conditions for being exempted from taxes on inheritance or gift duties or benefit from a reduction or elimination of double taxation pursuant to the applicable DTT, if any.
B. Italian Taxation
The following is a general summary of certain Italian tax consequences of the acquisition, holding, and disposing of the Fnac Shares that may apply to certain Italian tax resident shareholders. It does not consider every aspect of Italian taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder of shares in special circumstances or who is subject to special treatment under applicable law, and it is not intended to be applicable in all respects to all classes of investors. Italian tax resident shareholders should consult their own tax advisers to determine the tax regime applicable to their situation.
(i) Definitions
For purposes of this section, the terms defined have the meaning described below.
References to "CITA" are to Presidential Decree No. 917 of December 22, 1986 (the Consolidated Income Tax Act).
References to "Italian Intermediary" are to the entities listed under Article 23 of Presidential Decree No. 600 of September 29, 1973 (hereinafter, "Decree 600/73").
References to "Non-Qualified Shareholdings" are to shareholdings in companies listed on regulated markets other than Qualified Shareholdings.
References to "Qualified Shareholdings" are to shareholdings in companies listed on regulated markets represented by the ownership of shares (other than savings shares), rights or securities through which shares may be acquired which represent overall voting rights

exercisable at ordinary shareholders' meetings of over 2 percent or an interest in the share capital of over 5 percent.
References to "Transfer of Non-Qualified Shareholdings" are to transfers of shares (other than savings shares), rights or securities through which shares can be acquired, different from the Transfer of Qualified Shareholdings.
References to "Transfer of Qualified Shareholdings" are to transfers of shares (other than savings shares), rights or securities through which shares can be acquired, which exceed, over a period of twelve months, the threshold for their qualification as Qualified Shareholdings. The 12-month period starts from the date on which the securities and the rights owned represent a percentage of voting rights or interest in the capital exceeding the aforesaid threshold. For rights or securities through which holdings can be acquired, it is considered the percentage of voting rights or interest in the share capital potentially attributable to the holdings.
(ii) Dividends
Dividends paid with respect to the Fnac Shares to Italian tax resident shareholders will be subject to the tax treatment ordinarily applicable to dividends paid by companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State to Italian resident shareholders.
The following different methods of taxation are provided for the different classes of Italian tax resident shareholders.
a) Italian resident individuals
Dividends received by individual shareholders who are resident in Italy for income tax purposes in connection with Qualifying Shareholdings or Non Qualifying Shareholdings held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State, not holding the participation in connection with a business activity, are subject to a final withholding tax ("WHT") at the rate of 26% pursuant to the article 27 of Decree 600/73 — which will be withheld by the Italian Intermediary intervening in the collection of the dividends (if any), net of any source taxation paid in the foreign country — and do not have to be reported in the shareholders' annual income tax return.
In case no Italian Intermediary intervenes in the collection of the dividends received by individual shareholders in connection to Qualifying Shareholdings or Non Qualifying Shareholdings held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State, such dividends are subject to a 26 percent substitute tax to be paid by the Italian individual shareholders and, should be reported in the shareholders' annual income tax return according to Article 18 of the CITA.
Dividends received by individual shareholders, resident in Italy for tax purposes, in connection with shareholdings in companies' resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State, holding the shares in connection with a business activity, are not subject to WHT. Such dividends are partially included in the individual shareholders' taxable income, subject to personal income tax ("IRPEF") for (i) 58.14% of their amount as to dividends paid out of profits realized in the tax years following the one in progress on December 31, 2016, (ii) 49.72% of their amount as to dividends paid out of profits realized from the tax year following the one in progress on

December 31, 2007 up to the one in progress on December 31, 2016 and (iii) 40% of their amounts as to dividends paid out of profits realized in the tax years up to that in progress on December 31, 2007. IRPEF is generally levied at progressive rates ranging from 23 percent to 43 percent, plus local surcharges. Foreign source taxes definitely levied abroad on dividends paid to Italian resident individual shareholders may be deducted from the amount of the IRPEF under the conditions set forth by Article 165 of CITA.
b) Partnerships (excluding non-commercial partnerships), companies and other commercial entities, which are resident in Italy for tax purposes
Dividends paid in connection with shares held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State received by partnerships (other than non-commercial partnerships) and similar entities as referred to in article 5 of the CITA, as well as to companies or entities as referred to in Article 73 (1) sections a) and b) of the CITA, such as joint stock companies, partnerships limited by shares, limited liability companies, public and private entities (other than companies) and trusts whose sole or principal purpose is to carry on a business activity, which are resident for income tax purposes in Italy, are not subject to WHT and are included in the recipient's overall taxable income.
In particular, dividends paid in connection with shares held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State received by:
- partnerships and similar entities as referred to in Article 5 of CITA are partially included in the relevant taxable basis and then proportionally allocated to the relevant partners on a look-through basis. In particular, such dividends are included for (i) 58.14% of their amount as to dividends paid out of profits realized in the tax years following the one in progress on December 31, 2016, (ii) 49.72% of their amount as to dividends paid out of profits realized from the tax year following the one in progress on December 31, 2007 up to the one in progress on December 31, 2016, and (iii) 40% of their amounts as to dividends paid out of profits realized in the tax years up to that in progress on December 31, 2007. Foreign source taxes definitely levied abroad on dividends paid to partnerships and similar entities as referred to in Article 5 of CITA, resident for tax purposes in Italy, may be deducted, by the partners of such partnerships or similar entities - from the amount of the IRPEF due on the dividends proportionally allocated to such partners on a look-through basis - under the conditions set forth by Article 165 of CITA.
- entities subject to IRES as referred to in Article 73(1) sections a) and b) of CITA, are included in the entities' total taxable income for an amount equal to 5% of the received dividend amount and subject to the corporate income tax ("IRES", currently levied at a rate of 24%). However, if the recipient is a company applying the international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS), dividends arising from securities accounted for in the financial statements as held for trading purposes only, would be fully included in the recipient's taxable income for IRES purposes. Foreign source taxes definitely levied abroad on dividends paid to Italian resident entities subject to IRES as referred to in Article 73(1) sections a) and b) of CITA may be deducted from the amount of the IRES due on such dividends under the conditions set forth by Article 165 of CITA.

For some types of businesses and under certain conditions, the dividends received will also be included for 50% of their amounts in the taxable income subject to the Regional Tax on Business Activities ("IRAP").
c) Italian OICR (other than real estate investment funds or real estate SICAF)
Dividends received by Italian undertakings for collective investment of saving income (OICR) and Luxembourg-based OICR which have already been authorized for sale in Italy, subject to supervision, other than real estate investment funds and by Italian investment companies with variable or fixed capital (SICAV and SICAF), are not subject to WHT in Italy.
Dividends received by the aforementioned investment funds are not subject to tax at the level of such entities pursuant to Article 73(5quinquies) of the CITA.
(iii) Distributions of Certain Capital Reserves
Special rules apply to the distribution of certain capital reserves, including reserves or funds created with share premiums, capital contributions, capital account payments made by shareholders. Under certain circumstances, such distribution may trigger taxable income in the hands of the Italian shareholders, based on a special presumption, depending on the existence of current profits or outstanding profit reserves of the distributing company at the time of the distribution, and on the actual nature of the reserves so distributed. The application of such rule may also have an impact on the tax basis of the shares and the characterization of the taxable income received by the recipients as well as the tax regime applicable to it. Italian resident shareholders may be subject to tax in Italy as a result of the distribution of such reserves pursuant to the same tax regime applicable to dividends as described at section ii above. Prospective investors should consult their advisors in case any distributions of such capital reserves occur.
(iv) Capital gains
a) Italian resident individuals not carrying out business activities
Capital gains, other than those realized in connection with the carrying out of a business activity, realized by individuals resident in Italy for tax purposes upon transfer for consideration of shares held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State are subject to the same tax regime whether they are realized upon Transfer of Qualified Shareholdings or Transfer of Non-Qualified Shareholdings.
In particular, such capital gains are subject to a 26% substitute tax. The taxpayer may opt for one of the following three regimes:
- Taxation under tax return regime ("regime della dichiarazione"). Under the tax return regime, which is the standard regime for taxation of capital gains realized by Italian resident individuals not carrying out a business activity, a 26% substitute tax on capital gains will be chargeable on a cumulative basis, on all capital gains, net of any relevant incurred capital loss of the same nature. The mentioned substitute tax must be paid within the deadline for the payment of the balance income tax due on the basis of the tax return. Capital losses in excess of capital gains may be carried forward against capital gains of the same nature realized in the following four years, provided that such capital losses are reported in the tax return of the year when they were realized. The

tax return regime is mandatory in the event that the taxpayer does not choose one of the two alternative regimes mentioned in points (2) and (3) below.
-
- Non-discretionary investment portfolio ("risparmio amministrato") regime (optional). Pursuant to Article 6 of Legislative Decree No. 461 of 21 November 1997 ("Decree 416/97), Italian resident individuals holding shares otherwise than in connection with business activity may elect to pay 26% substitute tax, separately on capital gains realized on each transfer of the shares. Such separate taxation of capital gains is allowed provided (i) the shares being deposited with Italian banks, SIMs or certain authorized financial intermediaries; and (ii) an express election by the relevant shareholder for the "risparmio amministrato" regime being made in writing in due time. Under the risparmio amministrato regime, the financial intermediary is responsible for accounting for the due substitute tax in respect of capital gains realized on each transfer of the shares (as well as in respect of capital gains realized at revocation of its mandate), net of any relevant incurred capital loss of the same nature. Then the intermediary is required to pay the due amount of tax to the Italian tax authorities on behalf of the taxpayer, by deducting a corresponding amount from proceeds to be credited to the shareholder or using funds provided by the taxpayer for this purpose. Under the "risparmio amministrato" regime, where a transfer of the shares results in capital loss, such loss may be deducted from capital gains of the same nature subsequently realized within the same relationship of deposit in the same tax year or in the following tax years up to the fourth. Under the "risparmio amministrato" regime, the shareholder is not required to declare capital gains in its annual tax return.
-
- Discretionary investment portfolio ("risparmio gestito") regime (optional). Pursuant to Article 7 of Decree 461/97, any capital gains accrued on shares held otherwise than in connection with business activity by Italian resident individuals who have entrusted the management of their financial assets, including the shares, to an authorized intermediary and have elected for the "risparmio gestito" regime will be included in the computation of the annual increase in value of the accrued managed assets result, even if not actually received, at year end, which is subject to a 26% substitute tax to be applied on behalf of the taxpayer by the managing authorized intermediary. Under the "risparmio gestito" regime, any depreciation of the managed assets accrued at year end may be carried forward against increase in value of the managed assets accrued in any of the four following tax years. Under the "risparmio gestito" regime, the shareholder is not required to report capital gains realized in its annual tax return.
b) Italian resident individual shareholders holding the shares in connection with a business activity and partnerships and similar entities (excluding non-commercial partnerships)
Capital gains realized by partnerships and similar entities or Italian tax resident individuals upon the sale or disposal of the shares held in companies resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State, in connection with a business activity, are included in the recipients' overall taxable income for the entire amount in the tax year in which they are realized, subject to income tax at ordinary rates. However, if the conditions indicated in the following paragraph for the participation exemptionregime provided for capital gains realized by Italian resident

companies and commercial entities were satisfied, these capital gains would be subject to tax only partially, in an amount equal to 58.14% (49.72% for commercial partnerships) of the capital gains realized. In this event, the relating capital losses would be deductible for a corresponding amount.
c) Italian companies and commercial entities
Capital gains realized by Italian resident commercial companies subject to IRES, private and public entities as well as "opaque" trusts whose sole or principal purpose is to carry out a business activity, upon the sale or disposal of the shares held in companies' resident for tax purposes in an EU Member State, are included in their taxable income and are subject to IRES according to the ordinary rules. If the shares were held and accounted for as fixed financial assets in the three-year period preceding the disposal, the shareholder may elect to spread any realized gain on a straight-line basis across the five-year period commencing in the tax year in which the gain is realized and the following four pursuant to Article 86(4) of the CITA.
However, under article 87 of the CITA ("participation exemption" regime), capital gains arising from the disposal of the shares are tax-exempt for 95% of such capital gains, whereas the remaining 5 percent is included in the shareholders' taxable income and is subject to IRES, if the following conditions are met:
- (a) the shareholding must be held, without interruption, from the first day of the twelfth month preceding the month in which the sale occurs (the most recently purchased shares being deemed to have been sold first);
- (b) the shareholding must be accounted for in the financial statements of the shareholder as a fixed financial asset in the first year of the holding period. To parties who prepare their financial statements in accordance with IAS/IFRS international accounting standards the shares not accounted as "held for trading" are deemed as fixed financial assets;
- (c) residence for tax purposes of the participated entity in a country other than those with a privileged tax regime in accordance with the criteria set out in Article 47bis of the CITA. This requirement must be met at the time when the capital gain is realized, without interruption, since the beginning of the holding of the shares or, if the shares are held for more than five years and the disposal is made in favor of entities not belonging to the sale group of the seller, from at least the beginning of the fifth tax period preceding the one in which the gain is realized.
- (d) the participated entity carries out a commercial business activity according to the definition set forth in Article 55 of the CITA; however, this requirement is not relevant for shares in companies whose securities are traded on regulated markets.
If the aforementioned requirements are met, the capital losses made on shareholdings are not deductible from business income.
Under certain conditions, capital gains on the shares realized by certain companies and commercial entities are also subject to IRAP, at ordinary rates.
d) Italian OICR (other than real estate investment funds or real estate SICAF)

Capital gains realized by Italian undertakings for collective investment of saving income (OICR) and Luxembourg based OICR which have already been authorized for sale in Italy, subject to supervision, other than real estate investment funds and by Italian investment companies with variable or fixed capital (SICAV and SICAF), are not subject to tax at the level of such entities pursuant to Article 73(5quinquies) of the CITA.
(v) Shareholders subject to a different tax regime
Shareholders subject to a tax regime other than those referred to above with respect to dividends and capital gains are urged to consult with their usual tax advisor to determine the tax regime applicable to their own situation.
(vi) Stamp Duty
Pursuant to Article 13(2bis-2ter) of the tariff attached to Presidential Decree No. 642 of October 26, 1972, as amended, regulating the Italian stamp duty (imposta di bollo), subject to certain conditions, a stamp duty may be due, at the rate of 0.2% on the market value of the shares, in connection with the periodic reporting communications sent by Italian financial intermediaries to their clients with respect to any financial instruments (such as the shares), if deposited with an Italian financial intermediary or with an Italian permanent establishment of a foreign financial intermediary. The stamp duty cannot exceed Euro 14,000 for taxpayers other than individuals.
The stamp duty applies to any investor who is a "client" (as defined in the regulations issued by the Bank of Italy on June 20, 2012) of an entity that exercises in any form a banking, financial or insurance activity within the Italian territory.
(vii) Tax on the Value of Financial Activities Held Abroad
Italian resident individuals, certain partnerships (società semplici) and non-commercial entities holding financial activities abroad shall be generally subject to the Italian tax ("IVAFE") that applies at a rate of 0.2% on the value of the financial activity and is due in proportion to the percentage of ownership and the holding period. The value of financial activity corresponds to the market value at the end of each calendar year (or at the end of the holding period); if it is not available, the relevant value is the nominal or the redemption value.
A tax credit is generally granted for any net worth tax paid abroad by the Italian resident individual in relation to the same financial activities, in an amount not exceeding the IVAFE due.
Details of the financial activities held abroad have to be inserted in the income tax return to be filed in Italy by the Italian resident individuals.
(viii) Tax Monitoring Obligations
Individuals, non-commercial entities and certain partnerships (in particular, società semplici or similar partnerships in accordance with article 5 of CITA) resident for tax purposes in Italy are required to report in their yearly income tax return, for tax monitoring purposes, the amount of securities and financial instruments (including the shares) held abroad during a tax year, from which taxable Italian income may derive.

In relation to the shares, such reporting obligation shall not apply if the shares are not held abroad and, in any case, if the shares are deposited with an Italian Intermediary that intervenes in the collection of the relevant income and the latter applied the withholding or substitute tax due on any income derived from such shares.
(ix) Inheritance and Gift Tax
Subject to certain exceptions, Italian inheritance and gift tax is generally payable on transfers of assets and rights (including shares) (i) by reason of death or donations by Italian residents, even if the transferred assets are held outside Italy and (ii) by reason of death or donations by non-Italian residents, but limited to transferred assets located in Italy.
Subject to certain exceptions, transfers of assets and rights (including the shares) on death or by gift are generally subject to inheritance and gift tax:
- at a rate of 4% in case of transfers made to the spouse or relatives in direct line, on the portion of the global net value of the transferred assets, if any, exceeding, for each beneficiary, Euro 1,000,000;
- at a rate of 6% in case of transfers made to relatives to the fourth degree or relativesin-law to the third degree (in the case of transfers to brothers or sisters, the 6 percent rate is applicable only on the portion of the global net value of the transferred assets, if any, exceeding, for each beneficiary, Euro 100,000); and
- at a rate of 8% in any other case.
If the beneficiary of any such transfer is an individual with a severe disability pursuant to Law No. 104 of February 5, 1992, inheritance or gift tax is applied only on the value of the asset transferred in excess of Euro 1,500,000 at the rates illustrated above, depending on the relationship existing between the deceased or donor and the beneficiary.

F. METHODS AND TERMS OF ACCEPTANCE OF THE OFFER, DATES AND METHODS OF PAYMENT OF THE CONSIDERATION AND THE RETURN OF THE SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THE OFFER

In addition, pursuant to Article 40bis, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation, by the Trading Day following the Payment Date, the Tender Period must be reopened for 5 Trading Days (specifically, subject to possible extensions of the Tender Period, for the sessions of 4 November, 5 November, 6 November, 7 November e 8 November 2024) if, upon the publication of the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (see Section F, Paragraph F.3 of the Offer Document), the Offerors give notice of the waiver of the Minimum Threshold Condition.
If the Reopening of the Tender Period were to occur, the Offerors would deliver the Consideration to each Unieuro shareholder tendering in the Offer during the Reopening of the Tender Period on the fifth Trading Day following the end of the Reopening of the Tender Period and, therefore, subject to possible extensions of the Tender Period, on 15 November 2024.
However, the Reopening of the Tender Period will not occur:

- (ii) if, at the end of the Tender Period, the requirements for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or the Joint Procedure are met; or
- (iii) if the Unieuro Shares are subject to one or more competing bids.
F.1.2. Procedure for tendering and depositing the Unieuro Shares
Acceptance of the Offer during the Tender Period (or during the Reopening of the Tender Period) by holders of the Unieuro Shares (or by a representative having the relevant powers) are irrevocable, with the consequence that, following the acceptance of the Offer, it will not be possible, for the tendering shareholders, to assign or perform other acts of disposal of the Unieuro Shares for the entire period during which they will remain bound to service the Offer.

However, acceptances already made will be revocable by the tendering Unieuro shareholders who communicates the willingness to revoke the acceptance in the case of revocation permitted by applicable regulations to accept any competing offer or counter offer, pursuant to Article 44 of the Issuers' Regulation.
The Offer must be accepted by executing, and delivering to a Responsible Intermediary, the appropriate acceptance form (the "Acceptance Form"), duly completed in all of its parts, with simultaneous deposit of the Unieuro Shares with the said Responsible Intermediary.
Shareholders of the Issuer intending to accept the Offer may also deliver the Acceptance Form to, and deposit the Unieuro Shares indicated therein with, the Depositary Intermediaries, provided that the delivery and depositing are made in time for the Depositary Intermediaries to deposit the Unieuro Shares with, and deliver the related Acceptance Form to, a Responsible Intermediary no later than the last day of the Tender Period (or the Reopening of the Tender Period).
The Unieuro Shares are subject to the securities dematerialization scheme provided by Articles 83bis et seq. of the CFA and by the Regulation adopted by CONSOB and Bank of Italy resolution of 13 August 2018, as amended and supplemented from time to time.
The shareholders of Unieuro who intend to tender their Unieuro Shares to the Offer must be holders of the Unieuro Shares (in dematerialized form), duly registered in a securities account with one of the Depositary Intermediaries and must consult their respective brokers to deliver appropriate instructions in order to accept the Offer.
In consideration of the securities dematerialisation scheme, the execution of the Acceptance Form will also serve as irrevocable instruction - provided by the individual holder of the Unieuro Shares to the Responsible Intermediary or the Depositary Intermediary with which the Unieuro Shares are deposited in a securities account - to transfer the said Unieuro Shares in earmarked deposit accounts with the said intermediaries, in favour of the Offerors.
The Depositary Intermediaries, as agents, must countersign the Acceptance Forms. Unieuro shareholders bear the entire risk of the Depositary Intermediaries failing to deliver the Acceptance Forms and, if applicable, failing to deposit the Unieuro Shares with the Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders by the last day of the Tender Period (or the Reopening of the Tender Period).
At the time of tendering in the Offer and depositing of the Unieuro Shares, by executing the Acceptance Form, the Responsible Intermediary and any Depositary Intermediary will be delegated to perform all necessary formalities in preparation for the transfer of the Unieuro Shares to the Offerors, which will bear the related cost.
Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer must be freely transferrable to the Offerors and free of liens and encumbrances of any kind and nature, whether in rem, obligatory or personal.
Tenders in the Offer during the Tender Period by minors or persons under guardianship or receivership, in accordance with applicable legal provisions, which are executed by the parent(s), guardian(s) or receiver(s), if not accompanied by the authorization of the guardianship or receivership court, will be accepted under reservation and will be counted for purposes of determining the Offer tender percentages only if the authorization is received by

the Depositary Intermediary or the Responsible Intermediary before the end of the Tender Period and the payment of the Consideration relating to such tenders will occur in any case only after the authorization is received.
Only Unieuro Shares that upon acceptance of the Offer are duly registered and available in a securities account held by each tendering shareholder of Unieuro with an intermediary adhering to the Monte Titoli centralized clearing system may be tendered to the Offer. In particular, Unieuro Shares coming from purchase transactions made on the market can be tendered in the Offer only after those transactions have been settled in the clearing system.
With regard to the beneficiaries of the long-term incentive plan based on stock options approved on 6 February 2017 by the shareholders' meeting of Unieuro, it should be noted that the risk that the sending of the notice of exercise of the relevant stock options pursuant to the regulations of this plan and the consequent granting by the Issuer of the Unieuro Shares does not take place in time to enable these beneficiaries to tender to the Offer shall be borne solely by these beneficiaries.
F.2. Entitlement to and exercise of administrative and economic rights relating to the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Offer
The Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer will be transferred to the Offerors on the Payment Date (or, as for tenders made during the Reopening of the Tender Period, the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period).
Until the Payment Date (or, as for tenders made during the Reopening of the Tender Period, the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period), shareholders of Unieuro will retain and may exercise the administrative and economic rights arising from the ownership of the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer. However, shareholders of Unieuro who tendered their Unieuro Shares in the Offer will not be able to transfer their Unieuro Shares, apart from the tendering in any competitive offer or higher bid pursuant to Article 44 of the Issuers' Regulation, as indicated under Paragraph F.1.2 of this Section F of the Offer Document. During the same period, no interest on the Consideration will be due by the Offerors.
F.3. Notices relating to the progress and results of the Offer

F.5. Payment Date
Should the Conditions Precedent be fulfilled (or waived as applicable) and the Offer become effective, the Consideration will be paid to the holders of the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer upon the concurrent transfer of the ownership of the said Unieuro Shares to the Offerors on the fifth Trading Day after the closing of the Tender Period, and therefore on 1 November 2024 (i.e. on the Payment Date).
In the event of an extension of the Tender Period, the payment of the Consideration will take place on the fifth Trading Day following the closing date of the Tender Period, as extended. The new Payment Date thus determined will be announced, within the terms provided for by applicable law, by means of a press release issued pursuant to Article 36 of the Issuers' Regulation.

In the event of a Reopening of the Tender Period, the payment of the Consideration for the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period will take place on the fifth Trading Day following the closing of the Reopening of the Tender Period, i.e. on 15 November 2024 (unless the Tender Period is extended).
On the Payment Date (or, in relation to the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period, if any, on the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period), the Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders will transfer the tendered Unieuro Shares to a securities deposit account in the Offerors' name.
No interest on the Consideration is due in relation to the period between the date of acceptance of the Offer and the Payment Date (or, in relation to the Unieuro Shares tendered during the Reopening of the Tender Period, if any, the Payment Date of the Reopening of the Tender Period).
F.6. Method of payment of the Consideration
On the Payment Date, the Offerors will make available the Consideration to the Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders and the latter will then transfer the Consideration to the Responsible Intermediaries and/or Depositary Intermediaries, who shall credit the accounts (as for the Cash Portion) and transfer the Offered Shares (as for the Share Portion) to the securities deposit account of their respective clients, in accordance with the instructions provided by the tendering shareholders in the Acceptance Form.
Since no. 0.1 Fnac Shares will be offered in exchange for each Unieuro Share tendered in the Offer as Share Portion of the Consideration, the tendering Unieuro shareholders may be entitled to a non-integer number of Fnac Shares.
It should be noted that, as a consequence of the assignment of the Share Portion of the Consideration, if a shareholder tenders to the Offer a number of Unieuro Shares lower than 10 (i.e. the minimum number of Unieuro Shares that, when multiplied by 0.1, allows to obtain at least 1 Fnac Share as Share Portion of the Consideration), such tendering shareholder will be entitled to receive only the Cash Amount of the Fractional Part.
If the result of the assignment of the Share Portion of the Consideration for the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer is not a whole number of Offered Shares, the Depositary Intermediary or Responsible Intermediary to which the tendering shareholder has submitted his acceptance must indicate in the Acceptance Form the fractional part of Fnac Shares to which the said acceptor is entitled (each a "Fractional Part"). By the Trading Day after the closing of the Tender Period, each Responsible Intermediary – also on behalf of the Depositary Intermediaries that have forwarded acceptances of the Offer – will inform the Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders of the number of Offered Shares arising from the aggregation of the Fractional Parts.
The Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders – in the name and on the behalf of the tendering shareholders of Unieuro and on the basis of the communications received from the Depositary Intermediaries through the Responsible Intermediaries – will further aggregate the Fractional parts of the Offered Shares and then,

within eight Trading Days from the Payment Date, sell the whole number of Offered Shares arising from such aggregation on Euronext Paris at market conditions.
The cash proceeds of such sales will be credited (in Euro) to the relevant tendering shareholders of Unieuro in proportion to their respective Fractional Parts (the cash amount corresponding to the Fractional Part being the "Cash Amount of the Fractional Part"), as follows: within ten Trading Days of the Payment Date (i.e., by 1 November 2024, except for extensions of the Tender Period pursuant to applicable regulation), the Intermediary Responsible for Coordinating the Collection of Tenders will credit the proceeds of the sale to the Depositary Intermediaries, through the Responsible Intermediaries, allocating it so as to deliver to each Depositary Intermediary an amount equal to the total Cash Amount of the Fractional Part due to all the tendering shareholders of Unieuro that have tendered their Unieuro Shares to the Offer through the Depositary Intermediary concerned. The Depositary Intermediaries will in turn be required to distribute and credit the proceeds to the acceptors, according to the procedures indicated in the Acceptance Form.
The tendering shareholders of Unieuro will not bear any trading cost or fee, either in relation to the delivery of the Offered Shares or the payment of the Cash Amount of the Fractional Part. In any event, no interest of any kind will be paid on the Cash Amount of the Fractional Part.
The obligation of the Offerors to pay the Consideration pursuant to the Offer will be considered fulfilled when the related Consideration and any Cash Amount of the Fractional Part are transferred to the Responsible Intermediaries. The tendering shareholders of Unieuro bear the entire risk of the Responsible Intermediaries or the Depositary Intermediaries failing to transfer the Consideration or any Cash Amount of the Fractional Part to the entitled parties (including their heirs, where applicable) or delaying the transfer thereof.
F.7. Governing law and competent jurisdiction of the agreements entered into between the Offerors and the shareholders of Unieuro tendering their Unieuro Shares in the Offer
In relation to tendering in the Offer, the governing law is Italian law and the competent jurisdiction is the Italian ordinary jurisdiction.
F.8. Methods and terms for returning the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer in the event the Offer is ineffective and/or in the event of allotment
In the event that even one of the Conditions Precedent is not fulfilled and the Offerors do not exercise their right to waive it, the Offer will not be completed. In this scenario, any Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer will be made available to their holders by the Trading Day following the date on which the failure to fulfil one or more the Conditions Precedent is disclosed for the first time. The Unieuro Shares will be returned to their holders at no cost or expense to them.
Since the Offer is a voluntary public tender and exchange offer for all the Unieuro Shares, no form of allotment is envisaged.

G. METHODS OF FINANCING, GUARANTEE OF FULL PERFORMANCE, AND FUTURE PLANS OF THE OFFERORS
G.1. Methods of financing of the Offer and guarantee of full performance
G.1.1. Methods of financing
The Offered Shares that will be required as Share Portion of the Consideration will be issued out of the Offer Capital Increase (excluding pre-emption rights) based on the authorization by the Fnac EGM 2023 resolved by the board of directors of Fnac Darty on 16 July 2024, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), to be paid-in by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
The Cash Portion of the Consideration will be financed through the use of the Offerors available funds, and namely:
- as regards Fnac Darty, through the use of available cash, with no recourse to further indebtedness for the purposes of the Offer;
- as regards Ruby, through the use of available cash deriving from a non-refundable capital contribution by its sole shareholder to Ruby's special equity reserve account (i.e., account no. 115 - "compte des apports en capitaux propres non rémunérés par des titres").
In light of the provisions of the Investment Agreement, the Co-investor shall fund part of the Cash Portion, in a proportion that shall allow Ruby to hold, following the Offer and the HoldCo Contributions, 49% of Holdco. Therefore, assuming that all Shares Subject to the Offer (including all of the Additional Shares) are tendered to the Offer, the Cash Portion, which represents 74.88% of the overall Consideration, would be financed by Ruby and Fnac Darty as follows:
| Pro quota Maximum Cash Disbursement |
|||
|---|---|---|---|
| in absolute value (Euro) | in percentage of the overall Maximum Cash Disbursement |
||
| Fnac Darty | 56,652,496 | 31.56% | |
| Ruby | 122,850,641 | 68.44% |
Furthermore, the Offerors will resort to their available liquidity also for the payment, if any, of (a) the Full Cash Alternative Consideration due in the event of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA and in the event of the Joint Procedure pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 1 and Article 111 of the CFA, and (b) the costs of any nature connected to the financing and the Offer.

G.1.2. Guarantee of full performance
Share Portion of the Consideration
In order to ensure the full performance of the Offerors' obligation to pay the Share Component of the Consideration on the terms and conditions set out in the Offer Document, pursuant to Article 37bis, Paragraph 3, letter b), of the Issuers' Regulation:
- (i) the Fnac EGM 2023 held on 24 May 2023 granted, by means of resolution no. 23, the delegation of authority for executing the Offer Capital Increase, and
- (ii) the meeting of the board of directors of Fnac Darty held on 16 July 2024 resolved on the Offer Capital Increase, of up to no. 1,993,610 ordinary shares of Fnac Darty (as possibly increased due to the issue of Additional Shares), in order to issue the number of Offered Shares that will be required as Share Portion of the Consideration, to be paidin by contribution in kind of the Unieuro Shares tendered in the Offer.
Cash Portion of the Consideration
As a guarantee of full performance of the Offerors' payment obligations under the Offer visà-vis the tendering Unieuro shareholders for the Cash Portion of the Consideration, the Issuing Bank issued in favour of the Offerors the Guarantee of Full Performance pursuant to Article 37bis, Paragraph 3, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation, by which Crédit Agricole CIB, Milan Branch, irrevocably and unconditionally undertook to pay, at the simple request and in the name and on behalf of the Offerors, the amount due from the latter as Cash Portion for the Unieuro Shares tendered to the Offer up to the Maximum Cash Disbursement in the event that the Offerors will not be able to fulfil the relevant obligations to pay the Cash Portion of the Consideration.
The Guarantee of Full Performance relates to the Cash Portion of the Consideration only and the Issuing Bank does not have any obligation with respect to the Share Portion of the Consideration.
It should be noted that any additional guarantee for the full performance of the obligations relating to the potential Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA and, if necessary, the Joint Procedure for the payment of the related Cash Portion of the Consideration and of the Full Cash Alternative Consideration will be provided by the Offerors subsequently.
G.2. Reasons for the Offer and future plans of the Offerors
G.2.1. Reasons for the Offer
The consumer electronics market is currently challenging, and the Fnac Darty Board sees the combination of Fnac Darty and Unieuro as a strategic move to address this environment by increasing scale and geographic diversification, offering protection during downturns and opportunities for growth and profit in favourable conditions.
The combination of Fnac Darty and Unieuro that would result from the completion of the Offer would notably provide the following benefits:

- (i) the creation of a leading European retailer in consumer electronics and household appliances retail in Western and Southern Europe (France, Italy, Iberia, Benelux, Switzerland), with more than €10bn revenue and first and second positions in its main markets;
- (ii) the combination of three iconic and well-known brands in their respective markets, with strong levels of customer awareness;
- (iii) a more balanced geographic exposure;
- (iv) an enhanced capacity to deploy both groups strategic priorities around notably omnichannel capabilities and focus on services, where they could share their valuable experience in those domains, while strengthening Unieuro's relationships with its commercial long-term partners, particularly in terms of service offerings;
- (v) a significant amount of operational synergies estimated over Euro 20 million run-rate (pre-tax, starting 2025), notably generated by:
- a. for the major part, improvement of cost of goods sold through certain joint negotiations with suppliers; and
- b. for the minor part, mutualization and improvement of the purchasing channels and conditions for private label products.
G.2.2. Plans relating to the management of the business
Following the completion of the Offer, the Offerors plan to support Unieuro's current strategy "Omni-Journey" announced in May 2023 and the activities of Unieuro in accordance with this strategy, also for the purpose of achieving the financial targets announced by the Issuer in May 2024.
As of the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not agreed on a business plan with respect to the Offer, also given the need to exchange with the management of the Issuer on this matter which – also in view of the shareholding reached following the Offer - might be carried out after the completion of the same. It is expected that discussions with Unieuro's management will allow to enhance this strategy based on the experience of Fnac Darty and Ruby's representatives that would be involved in the governance of Unieuro, and on potential synergies between Unieuro and Fnac Darty.
According to the "Omni-Journey" plan, through developing the "Omnichannel Trade" pillar, Unieuro seeks to consolidate its sector leadership, building its omnichannel proposition to offer a fully integrated cross-channel experience. This will be achieved by strengthening the business proposition through the use of data and an evolution of the role of physical stores - including through revising the format - which will continue to play a central and distinctive role within the omnichannel purchasing process. In addition, Unieuro seeks to review the planning, demand forecasting and operation models, supported by an evolution of the distribution model, including through an overhaul of the logistics network to get closer to the end customer.
To respond to all consumer technology needs, through the expansion of the "Beyond Trade", Unieuro intends to invest in strengthening its consumer-centric "ecosystem" by offering

comprehensive, integrated and customised solutions that go beyond pure product sales, such as repair services, used-product pickup and sale, technology consulting, and private label and exclusive brand development.
This strategy will majorly transform Unieuro by significantly changing the company's profile and diversifying and sustaining profitable growth. At the date of the Offer Document, the Offerors (i) do not envisage any change to Unieuro's registered address (ii) intend to retain all of Unieuro's employees and (iii) do not envisage any material changes to the employment contracts of these employees. It is not expected that the Offer would have any direct adverse financial or legal consequences on the workforce, employees, working conditions or employment terms and conditions of Unieuro.
In this respect, Fnac Darty is ready to contribute to the successful growth of the Issuer by leveraging on its experience in omni-channel and services offering deployed over the recent years with its plans Confiance + and Everyday.
Indeed, in 2021 the Fnac Group unveiled its new strategic plan "Everyday", with the ambition to embody a new way of doing business, always with the same high standards for its customers and all its stakeholders.
The strategic plan – whose ambition is to put Fnac Darty at the heart of customers' life, day in and day out, and help them adopt more sustainable behaviors - is an answer to 3 convictions on the future of retail, that shape and are shaped by the powerful Group mission "Commit to an educated choice and a sustainable consumption".
Omnichannel is the winning model of retail:
- advice and service are key to the purchasing act;
- consumer behaviours will mainly be driven by environmental concern in the long term.
Everyday implementation relies on three pillars:
- build a human and digitized omnichannel retail, bringing to customers the best of online (simplicity, efficiency, unlimited choice) and offline (care, expertise, personalization) experience:
- o best-in-class online capacities and user experience with 50% of Capex dedicated to enhancing online and logistics capabilities;
- o a 100% profitable and digitized store network with extended omnichannel and repair services, best in class in store experts and franchise formats to get closer to customers;
- o an uncompromised acceleration to offer high-value products to all;
- lead durable behaviours with the right solutions and advice to consume better, use better and repair:
- o a more durable offer, combined with customers' orientation towards durable products leveraging unique and proprietary scoring of the durability of the offer, extension of used products pick-up, 2nd life and trade-in offers and delisting of product that would not meet internal requirements;

- o the promotion of responsible behaviors, notably through eased access to repair with strong investment in repair capacities (workforce and footprint) to reach more than 2.5m products repaired per year by 2025;
- o uncompromising Group behavior on the basics: gender equality, inclusion, personal data, -50% of CO2 emissions in 2030 vs 2019;
- scale the next in-home subscription-based assistance service:
- o unlocking the full potential of the Group's unique and exclusive unlimited repairs and maintenance subscription program Darty Max with ambition to reach more than 2M subscribers by 2025;
- o Fnac Darty hopes that Darty Max will help it to become the leading provider of home assistance services. Darty Max is really shaking up the way services are provided and sold. This unique and iconic service is promoting repairs on a large scale and consolidating high-quality, lasting relationships with customers.
It is intended to work on the post-integration business plan with Unieuro as soon as the Offer is completed and necessary authorizations have been obtained, in the assumption that Fnac Darty - also indirectly as a result of the HoldCo Contributions and taking into account the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement – is able to steadily elect the majority of the Issuer's directors and, therefore, exercise legal control over Unieuro pursuant to Article 2359, Paragraph 1, no. 1 or no. 2, of the Italian Civil Code. It is expected that the initial work on this business plan will take a few weeks, potentially a few months, depending on interactions with Unieuro's management.
G.2.3. Further potential extraordinary transactions
G.2.3.1. Merger
Should the conditions for the Delisting not occur, and the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition, the Offerors may propose to the shareholders' meeting of Unieuro the Merger of the latter into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo. In any case, as of the Date of the Offer Document, no formal decisions have been taken by the competent bodies of the companies that might be involved regarding the possible Merger, or the manner in which it would be carried out.
However, should the Offerors reach a threshold of at least 66.67% of Unieuro's share capital upon completion of the Offer, the Merger by incorporation may also be approved with only the Offerors' favourable vote.
If resolved, the Merger would take place on the basis of an exchange ratio determined using, as customary, homogeneous methodologies and assumptions in the valuation of the companies involved, without any premium being due to the minority shareholders of the merged company.
Since HoldCo may become a related party of the Issuer pursuant to the Related Parties Regulation upon completion of the Offer, the Merger may qualify as a transaction between related parties under the Related Parties Regulation and, consequently, would be subject to the principles and rules of transparency and substantive and procedural fairness set forth in

the procedure for transactions with related parties adopted by the Issuer in the implementation of the Related Parties Regulation.
In the event that the Issuer were to be merged into a non-listed company directly or indirectly controlled by HoldCo, the Issuer's shareholders that did not vote in favour of the resolution approving the Merger would have the right to withdraw pursuant to the applicable law provisions if the relevant conditions are met. Should the withdrawal right be exercised, the liquidation value of the Unieuro Shares subject to withdrawal will be determined pursuant to Article 2437ter, Paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code, by reference to the arithmetic average of the closing prices during the 6 months preceding the publication of the notice of the shareholders' meeting called to approve the Merger.
Therefore, following the Merger referred to above, if any, the Issuer's shareholders who decide not to exercise their right of withdrawal would become holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
G.2.3.2. Further possible extraordinary transactions
Irrespectively of Unieuro's Delisting, the Offerors do not exclude evaluating in the future the opportunity to carry out any further extraordinary transactions and/or corporate and business reorganizations that will be deemed appropriate, in line with the objectives and the rationale of the Transaction, as well as with the Issuer's growth and development goals, also in order to ensure the integration of the activities of Fnac Darty and Unieuro.
In any case, at the Date of the Offer Document, no formal decisions have been taken by the competent bodies.
G.2.4. Future investments and sources of financing
As at the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not evaluated any proposal to be made to the board of directors of the Issuer regarding investments of particular importance and/or additional to those generally required for the operational management of the activities in the sector in which the Issuer itself operates.
G.2.5. Changes to the composition and the remuneration of the Issuer's corporate bodies
Save for the below, as of the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not taken any decision on possible changes in the composition of the Issuer's board of directors and board of statutory auditors and their respective remuneration upon successful completion of the Offer.
According to the Shareholders' Agreement:
- should Delisting be achieved, the board of directors of Unieuro shall comprise 5 members, 3 of which will be appointed by Fnac Darty and remaining 2 by Ruby;
- should Delisting not be achieved, the Offerors shall cause a shareholders' meeting (i) as soon as practicable for the purposes of approving a new version of the by-laws of Unieuro, setting forth new provisions on the election of the board of directors, whereby all the directors except 1 are appointed from the list which obtains the majority of votes and the remaining director is appointed from the unrelated minority list and, (ii) as soon

as practicable after the effective date of such amendment, for the purposes of appointing a new board of directors composed of 9 members as follows:
- o an aggregate number of 5 directors selected by Fnac Darty, out of which 2 shall qualify as independent directors and 3 shall belong to the less represented gender (irrespective of whether they qualify or not as independent directors);
- o an aggregate number of 3 directors selected by Ruby, out of which one 1 shall qualify as independent director and one 1 shall belong to the less represented gender (irrespective of whether she/he qualifies or not as independent director); and
- o 1 director selected from the minority list.
Please refer to Section M, Paragraph M.1, of the Offer Document for the summaries of the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement, that were disclosed in accordance with Article 122 of the CFA.
G.2.6. Amendments to the Issuer's articles of incorporation
As of the Date of the Offer Document, the Offerors have not identified any specific amendments or changes to be implemented to the current Unieuro's articles of incorporation, save for the amendments referred to in the previous Paragraph G.2.5 in accordance with the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement. Other amendments could be made as appropriate in light of the combination of the Issuer with the Fnac Group, to reflect the terms of the Shareholders' Agreement and/or to adapt the Unieuro's articles of incorporation to those of an unlisted company further to the Delisting of the Issuer's shares.
G.2.7. Offerors' plan not to restore the free float
Since the Offer is aimed at acquiring all of the outstanding shares of the Issuer not yet held by the Offerors (as better described under Paragraph C.1 above) as of the Date of the Offer Document and obtaining the Delisting, in the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extensions of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law, a total stake greater than 90% but smaller than 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors hereby declare their intent to not restore a free float sufficient to ensure regular trading of the Issuer's ordinary shares.
For the purpose of calculating the thresholds provided for by Article 108, Paragraph 2, of the CFA, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).
If the conditions are met, the Offerors will therefore comply with the obligation to purchase the remaining Shares Subject to the Offer from the Issuer's shareholders so requesting pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 2, of the CFA, paying to the Issuer's shareholders a price per Unieuro Share equal to the Consideration for the Offer or determined by Consob (as applicable), in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50, 50bis and 50ter of the Issuers' Regulation.
Therefore:

- (i) if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have acquired at least 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the fulfillment of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be equal to the Consideration for the Offer in accordance with the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Article 50 of the Issuers' Regulation. Nonetheless, in this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation by valuing the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices recorded in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration; or
- (ii) if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have purchased less than 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the fulfillment of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will be determined by CONSOB in accordance with Article 108, Paragraph 4 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50 and 50bis of the Issuers' Regulation. In particular:
- a) due to the voluntary application to the Offer of the Reopening of the Tender Period, pursuant to Article 50, Paragraph 4, letter c), of the Issuers' Regulation, the consideration will be determined by Consob in an amount equal to the Consideration for the Offer, provided that in this scenario at least 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer will have been tendered in the first phase of the Offer. In this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, which will be determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation measuring the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices registered in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration; or
- b) if an amount lower than 50% of the Shares Subject to the Offer has been tendered to the Offer in the first phase of the Offer, the consideration will be determined by Consob in accordance with the criteria provided for by Articles 50, Paragraphs 5 and 6, and 50bis of the CFA. In this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, which will be determined in accordance with Article 50 ter, Paragraph 1, letter b), of the Issuers' Regulation as equal to the measurement in monetary terms determined by Consob pursuant to Article 50 and 50bis, of the Issuers' Regulation.
The Offerors will give notice if the requirements for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA are met in the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, in the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening). If such requirements are met, the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening) will contain, inter alia, information regarding (a) the number of remaining Shares Subject to the Offer (in absolute and percentage terms), (b) the manner and timing of the Obligation to Purchase under Art.

108, Par. 2, of the CFA, and (c) the procedure and timing of the subsequent Delisting. Before starting to fulfill the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, the Offerors will publish an additional notice containing the information regarding the determination of the related consideration, as well as of the Full Cash Alternative Consideration.
Pursuant to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, if the conditions for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA are met, the Unieuro Shares will be delisted starting from the Trading Day following the day of payment for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, without prejudice to what is indicated below in relation to the exercise of the Right to Squeeze-out pursuant to Article 111 of the CFA and the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA. In such a case, the holders of Unieuro Shares who decide not to accept the Offer and who do not request the Offerors to purchase their Unieuro Shares during the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, will be holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
Moreover, in the event that, following the Offer, including any potential extension of the Tender Period or Reopening of the Tender Period, or the possible Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, the Offerors (jointly with the Persons Acting in Concert) hold, as a result of tenders in the Offer and any purchases made outside of the Offer pursuant to applicable law or any purchases made pursuant to the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA, a total stake at least equal to 95% of the Issuer's share capital, the Offerors hereby declares their intent to exercise their Right to Squeeze-out the remaining Shares Subject to the Offer pursuant to Article 111 of the CFA.
The Right to Squeeze-out will be exercised by the Offerors as soon as possible after the conclusion of the Offer or the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA (as the case may be). The Offerors, by exercising the Right to Squeeze-out, will also fulfil the Obligation to Purchase pursuant to Art. 108, Par. 1, of the CFA vis-à-vis the shareholders of the Issuer who have requested it, thus carrying out a single procedure within the Joint Procedure.
For the purpose of calculating the thresholds provided for by Article 108, Paragraph 1, and Article 111 of the CFA, the Treasury Shares held by the Issuer will be added to the Offerors' shareholdings (numerator) without being deducted from the Issuer's share capital (denominator).
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA, as referred to in Article 111 of the CFA, the Right to Squeeze-out will be exercised by the Offerors by paying a price per Unieuro Share equal to the Consideration for the Offer or determined by Consob (as applicable), in accordance with Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Articles 50 and 50ter of the Issuers' Regulation, as referred to in Article 50quater of the Issuers' Regulation.
Therefore, if, as a result of the Offer, the Offerors have acquired at least 90% of the Shares Subject to the Offer, the consideration for the Unieuro Shares purchased as a result of the Joint Procedure will be equal to the Consideration for the Offer in accordance with the provisions of Article 108, Paragraphs 3 and 5, of the CFA and Article 50 of the Issuers'

Regulation. Nonetheless, in this case, pursuant to Article 108, Paragraph 5, of the CFA, the remaining shareholders of Unieuro may request to receive the Full Cash Alternative Consideration, determined in accordance with Article 50ter, Paragraph 1, letter a), of the Issuers' Regulation by valuing the Fnac Shares on the basis of the weighted average of the official prices recorded in the five Trading Days prior to the Payment Date of the Consideration.
The Offerors will give notice if the requirements for the Joint Procedure are met in the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or, in case of Reopening of the Tender Period, in the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening), or in the notice relating to the results of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA. If such requirements are met, the Notice of the Final Results of the Offer (or the Notice of the Final Results of the Reopening) or the notice relating to the results of the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA will contain information regarding, inter alia, (a) the number of remaining Shares Subject to the Offer (in absolute and percentage terms), (b) the manner and timing in which the Offerors will carry out the Joint Procedure, and (c) the procedure and timing of the subsequent Delisting. Before carrying out the Joint Procedure, the Offerors will publish an additional notice containing the information regarding the determination of the related consideration, as well as of the Full Cash Alternative Consideration.
Following the occurrence of the conditions for the Joint Procedure, according to Article 2.5.1, Paragraph 6, of the Stock Exchange Regulation, Borsa Italiana will order the suspension from trading and/or the Delisting of the Unieuro Shares taking account of the time required to exercise the Right to Squeeze-out.
Without prejudice to the above, in the event that, following completion of the Offer (including the extension of the Tender Period and /or any Reopening of the Tender Period), the conditions for the Obligation to Purchase under Art. 108, Par. 2, of the CFA or the Joint Procedure have not been met and the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition there could in any case be a scarcity of free float such that the regular course of trading of the Unieuro Shares will not be ensured, also taking into account the possible permanence in the share capital of the Issuer of shareholders with significant stakes. In this case, the Offerors do not intend to put in place any measure aimed at restoring the minimum free float to ensure the regular trading of the Unieuro Shares and Borsa Italiana may order the suspension of the Unieuro Shares from listing and/or the Delisting pursuant to Article 2.5.1 of the Stock Exchange Regulation.
In case of Delisting, the holders of Unieuro Shares who decide not to accept the Offer will be holders of securities not traded on any regulated market, with the consequent difficulty in liquidating their investment.
In addition, if at the end of the Offer (including the extension of the Tender Period and /or any Reopening of the Terms) (i) the conditions for Delisting are not met but the Offerors waive the Minimum Threshold Condition and (ii) the remaining free float of the Unieuro Shares is more than 10% but less than 20% of the Issuer's voting share capital, such free float may not be deemed suitable to meet the requirements of sufficient float required by the Stock Exchange Regulation for the Issuer to maintain its "STAR" status and remain on the "Euronext STAR Milan" segment, resulting in the possible loss of such status and the transfer of the

Issuer to the Euronext Milan market, in accordance with Article IA.4.2.2, Paragraph 3, of the instructions to the Stock Exchange Regulation. In such a case, the Unieuro Shares could have a lower degree of liquidity than that recorded as of the Date of the Offer Document. In addition, the Issuer would no longer be required to comply with the specific transparency and corporate governance requirements that are mandatory only for companies listed on the STAR Segment of Euronext Milan and could decide, at its discretion, not to voluntarily apply them.
