1 If the amount of dividends that a shareholder
opts to receive in shares does not correspond to a whole number of
shares, the shareholder may obtain the immediately superior number
of shares by paying the difference in cash on the date on which the
shareholder selects that option, or receive the immediately
inferior number of shares along with a cash payment for the
remainder. The new shares resulting from the exercise of this
option will be traded on Euronext Paris SA from 16 July 2020 and
will qualify for dividends from 1 January 2020.
