Change in number of outstanding Ornane bonds
Following block purchases representing approximately 27% of

bondholders equitably, the Company decided to launch a buyback
procedure on Euronext Paris. The offer period ran from 25 April to

bonds still outstanding at that time,
i.e.
approximately 1.9% of the
original issue.

76,914 Ornane bonds, representing approximately 1.8% of the original
issue, at a price of €26.15 per bond (including accrued coupons),
corresponding to a total of €2,011,301.10.
Following the buybacks, a total of 4,094 Ornane bonds remained
outstanding, representing approximately 0.1% of the original issue.
The Ornane bonds bought back by the Company were cancelled in
accordance with the terms and conditions of their indenture and in
compliance with the law.
At 31 December 2016, a total of 3,757 Ornane bonds remained
outstanding. All of these bonds were redeemed on 2 January 2017
in accordance with the terms and conditions of their indenture, for an
aggregate amount of €83,854.
