Performance share grants

Since 2009, the Board of Directors has granted performance shares to employees of the Group and, since 2012, also to its executive corporate officer, under Articles L. 225-197-1 et seq., L. 22-10-59, L. 22-10-60 and L. 22‑10-8 of the French Commercial Code and the authorisations granted by the General Meeting.

These grants are linked to performance and their aim is to encourage achievement of the Group's long-term objectives and the resulting value creation for shareholders. Consequently, vesting is subject to performance conditions which are recorded at the end of a vesting period of four years from the grant date.
