In light of the current situation concerning the coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic and the fight against its propagation, and following the March 6, 2020 press release published by the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) relative to Combined Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meetings of listed companies, the Company reminds its shareholders that they may opt for remote voting. This includes voting either by mail or by proxy whereby they delegate their voting power to a person of their choice or the chairman of the general meeting.

As a precautionary measure to preserve the health of its shareholders and employees and to ensure that the General Meeting runs as smoothly as possible, the Company recommends that shareholders opt for a remote form of voting. This particularly concerns those having visited a zone where the virus is widespread or who have been in contact with someone tested positive.
