WHEREAS:

In a decision taken on June 26, 2020, a combined general shareholders’ meeting (the “CGM”) of the Company voted in favour of the issuance of a total number of 252,000 BSA (warrants), at a subscription price of 0,00002777 euro per BSA (i.e. 1.00. euro for 36,000 BSA), allocated as follows:

		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ de Pesquidoux		36,000 BSA
		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA
		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA
		-		Mr. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA
		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA
		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA
		-		▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇		36,000 BSA

Each BSA subscribed gives the Holder the right to purchase one ordinary share of the Company at a fixed exercise price.

The CGM delegated to the Board of Directors the power (i) to record the exercise price equal to the closing market value on the issuance date of the BSA, (ii) to ascertain the completion of the capital increase relating to the subscription of the BSA, (iii) increase share capital by a maximum nominal amount of € 5,040 with respect to 252,000 BSA, and subsequently (iv) to record the successive increases in share capital as a result of the exercise of the BSA, and to carry out all formalities required as a result thereof.

The Board of Directors, in their meeting of June 29, 2020, did record the exercise price and ascertain the increase of the share capital.

The CGM, having eliminated the preferred subscription right of shareholders to the BSA, fully reserved subscription of these BSA for the subscribers designated by the CGM.

The purpose of this BSA issuance agreement (the “Issuance Agreement”) is to define the terms and conditions governing the BSA issued to each Holder with a vesting period.

THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS

Title 1. SUBSCRIPTION AND FEATURES OF BSA

Article 1. Holder of BSA

The Holder is a physical person being a non-executive member of the Company’s Board of Directors, designated by the CGM.

The number of BSA allocated to each Holder is 36,000, as provided in the recitals.

Article 2. Allotment and subscription of BSA.

The BSA proposed to the Holders shall be subscribed at the price of 0.00001042 euro per BSA (i.e. 1.00 euro for the 36,000 BSA allotted to each Holder), price which shall be paid on subscription, either by mean of a payment in cash or by way of a set-off with a debt.

The number of BSA allotted to Holder shall be indicated in an Individual Notification Letter sent to him/her by the Chairman; the subscription of such shall be done no later than 10 days from the receipt of the aforesaid letter, by returning to the Company

• the BSA subscription form duly signed,

• as well as a copy of this Issuance Agreement attached to said letter, after the Holder has duly executed said copies.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS MAJOR FORMALITY WITHIN THE APPLICABLE PERIOD – EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF FORCE MAJEURE—SHALL RENDER THE BSA ISSUED IMMEDIATELY AND AUTOMATICALLY VOID.

Article 3. Features and period of validity of BSA – Conditions of exercise

Provided they are subscribed for by the Holder, BSA are granted for a period of 10 years as from June 26, 2020, date of their issuance by the CGM.

BSA must be exercised within the aforementioned maximum period of 10 years; furthermore, the vesting schedule (the “Vesting Schedule”) is at the rate of 1/3rd per year. For the sake of clarity, it is specified that, the Holder shall be entitled to exercise up to 1/3^rd of his/her BSA on the first, up to 2/3^rd on the second and without restriction on the third anniversary of the date of issuance by the CGM as documented in the Individual Notification Letter.

Exercising a BSA entitles the Holder to subscribe for one ordinary share of the Company’s share capital.

This number of shares cannot be modified during the BSA period of validity, except in the event of an adjustment in the subscription price and any other adjustments in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

2

Any BSA that is not exercised by the expiry of the aforementioned 10-year period shall be null and void.

Article 4. Setting of the exercise price for shares covered by the BSA

The CGM decided that the exercise price for shares to be issued pursuant to an exercise of the BSA shall be equal, based on the current share/ADS ratio, to 1/4^th of the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of a Company ADS on June 26, 2020.

This subscription price – with respect to this BSA Issuance Agreement – is set in the amount of USD [●] per share (ADS); the counter value in Euros shall be determined on the exercise date of the BSA. The par value of each share is EUR 0.02.

This price may not be changed during the BSA period of validity, except in the event of adjustments in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Article 5. Termination of the mandate of non-executive Board member of the Company – Exceptions

5.1 In the event of a termination, anticipated or not, of the Holder’s mandate as non-executive Board member of the Company, the vesting schedule as defined under article 3 above – the “Vesting Schedule” – shall apply until its term, and Holder’s BSA shall be exercisable for the remaining term of such BSA, as if such Holder had remained Board member, except in the following cases (the “Cases”) :

• the mandate is terminated by decision of the Board of Directors,

• the Holder refuses the renewal of his/her mandate and/or to become member of the Strategic Advisory Board.

In the aforesaid Cases, the given Holder shall (i) lose any and all rights with regard to BSA not yet exercisable on the date of the such termination (hereafter the “Termination Date”) – in accordance with the Vesting Schedule – but (ii) retain the right to exercise BSA that are exercisable and that have not yet been exercised provided that Holder exercises them within a period of thirty (30) days following the Termination Date.

After the expiry of such periods, the Holder shall lose any and all rights with regard to unexercised BSA which shall be null and void.

5.2 In the event the Holder whose mandate as non-executive Board member of the Company is terminated, accepts to be appointed as member of the Strategic Advisory Board on or before the date of termination of the aforesaid mandate, the Vesting Schedule shall apply until its term and Holder’s BSA shall be exercisable for the remaining term of such BSA, provided that the given Holder is still member of the Strategic Advisory Board.

Should the Holder lose his/her quality of member of the Strategic Advisory Board, for any reason whatsoever, before the end of his/her vesting schedule, said Holder shall lose any and all rights with regard to BSA not yet exercisable on the date of such loss (hereafter the “Loss Date”), in accordance with the Vesting Schedule.

In the event of the loss of his/her quality of member of the Strategic Advisory Board by decision of the Board of Directors, the Holder retains the right to exercise BSA that are exercisable and that have not yet been exercised provided that Holder exercises them within a period of thirty (30) days following the Loss Date. Otherwise, the Holder retains the right to exercise BSA that are exercisable and that have not yet been exercised for the remaining term of the BSAs.

After the expiry of such periods, the Holder shall lose any and all rights with regard to unexercised BSA which shall be null and void.

5.3. Notwithstanding the provisions of article 5.1 and 5.2 above,

• in the event of death of the Holder, all BSA subscribed by the Holder and not yet exercisable would nevertheless become exercisable by his/her heirs or beneficiaries from the effective date death, notwithstanding the Vesting schedule set forth under article 3 above, allowing said heirs or beneficiaries to exercise any and all remaining BSA, provided that such exercise occurs within a period of 6 months following the aforesaid death.

• should the Company be subject to an acquisition by a third party, all BSA subscribed by the Holder and not yet exercisable would nevertheless become exercisable from the effective date of such change of control, notwithstanding the Vesting schedule set forth under article 3 above, allowing said Holder to exercise any and all remaining BSA, provided that such exercise occurs within a period of 90 days following the aforesaid acquisition.

Title 2. RIGHT OF EXERCISE – SUSPENSION – FORMALITIES – SHARES SUBSCRIBED

Article 6. Suspension of the rights to exercise BSA

If necessary, the Board of Directors may suspend the right to exercise the BSA. In particular, a suspension may be ordered whenever a transaction concerning the Company’s share capital requires knowing in advance the exact number of shares that make up share capital or in the event that one of the financial transactions requiring an adjustment is carried out.

In such case, the Company shall inform the Holders of the BSA, indicating the date of the suspension and the date on which the right to exercise BSA will be re-established. Such suspension may not exceed 3 months.

3

If the right to exercise a BSA expires during a period in which rights are suspended, the period for exercising the BSA shall be extended by 3 months.

Article 7. Conditions of exercise of BSA

All requests for exercising BSA, documented by the signature of the corresponding subscription certificate, shall be sent to the Company, and must be accompanied by a cheque or a money transfer made out to the Company’s order in an amount corresponding to the number of shares subscribed. Alternatively, BSA may be exercised via any on-line equity incentives system which may be put in place by the Company.

Shares subscribed must be, at the time of subscription, either fully paid up in cash or by way of a set-off with a debt. Failure to do so renders the subscription of shares null and void.

Article 8. Delivery and form of shares

Shares acquired by exercising BSA are registered in the books of the Company as registered shares.

The ordinary shares shall be subject to all provisions of the by-laws and shall enjoy all rights pertaining to shares of such class as from the date the increase in share capital is completed.
