  1. Share buyback programme (the "Programme")

 

  • The shares concerned: CPIPG ordinary shares – both listed (ISIN LU0251710041) and unlisted shares. Only fully paid-up shares may be repurchased.
  • Modalities of the repurchase of the shares: the shares can be repurchased by the Company itself, or through a company in which the Company holds directly the majority of the voting rights, or through a person acting in its own name but for the account of the Company.

The shares can be repurchased on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange or directly from existing and/or future shareholders by consensual or private sale, without prejudice to the principle of equal treatment of all shareholders who are in the same position and the provisions of the LCA.

  • The maximum number of shares to be repurchased: 1,000,000,000.
  • The maximum redemption price is set at five euros (€ 5.-) per share.
  • The minimum redemption price is set at one euro cent (€ 0.01) per share.
  • Programme’s duration: 5 years from the general meeting of the shareholders of the Company of 31 May 2023.
  • Financial conditions: The acquisitions/repurchases/redemptions of its own shares by the Company, including shares previously acquired by the Company and held by it, as well as shares acquired by a person acting in his own name but on behalf of the Company, may not have the effect of reducing the net assets of the Company below the amount of the subscribed capital plus the reserves which may not be distributed under the LCA or by virtue of the articles of association of the Company.
 
  1. Date of the General Meeting of shareholders having authorised the Programme

 

The annual general meeting of the shareholders of the Company held on 31 May 2023 approved the Programme and authorised the board of directors of the Company (with option to delegate) to implement the Programme. In particular, the board of directors of the Company was authorised to implement the share repurchase Programme in one or several steps, to proceed with the payment of the relevant repurchase price out of the Company's available funds, to take all required actions to complete any repurchase of shares and to verify that process of share repurchase is made in compliance with the legal provisions of the LCA.
 

  1. Legal framework

 

Those aspects related to the share redemption Programme are set forth in the provisions of “Transparency” Directive and of the “Market Abuse” Regulation.

The aspects related to company law are set forth in articles 430-15 ff of the LCA.

The Company’s articles of association contain the following provisions concerning the redemption of own shares: 

 5.3. Redemption of its own shares

Subject to the provisions of article 8 of the articles of association of the Company, the Company may acquire its own shares, either on its own, or through a company in which the Company holds directly the majority of the voting rights, or through a person acting in its own name but for the account of the Company, subject to the conditions of the LCA."

 

  1. The total number of voting rights and share capital of CPIPG as at 31 May 2023

 

As at 31 May 2023 the corporate capital of CPIPG is €870,485,025.90 represented by 8,704,850,259 ordinary shares with par value of €0.10 each.
 

  1. Objectives of the new buyback Programme

 

Pursuant to the implementation of the European Regulation, the objectives of this share buyback Programme are the capital reduction of the Company (in value or in number of shares), the conversion of bonds and/or warrants and other debt financial instruments exchangeable into equity instruments issued by the Company, the improvement of the balance sheet structure, the creation of stock options plans and employee share option programs or other allocations of shares to employees of the Company or of an associate company, the improvement of the shareholding value in order to have the flexibility to intervene in the market if necessary or to have the possibility to meet obligations arising from above, the reinforcement of the attractiveness of the Company for investors by offering new distributions and exit modalities for shareholders.

The realisation of those different objectives must be carried out in abidance with regulations in force and taking into account those precisions provided by the supervisory authorities at the places of listing regarding complementary market practices concerning the one or more liquidity contracts that could eventually be entered into with an investment services provider and the purchase for the purpose of conservation and later remittance to exchange or for payment within the framework of possible outside growth operations.

Luxembourg, 31 May 2023

Yours faithfully,

 

The Board of Directors of the Company
