The Sellers are thus selling approximately 4.4 million Euronext shares in aggregate, representing approximately 6.3% of the Company's share capital, in a private placement to institutional investors to be executed by way of an accelerated book-building process.

Following this transaction, BNP Paribas Group and Societe Generale will hold respectively 2.22% and 1.50% of Euronext's share capital, in accordance with the terms of the new Reference Shareholders Agreement which was announced today, with a new two-year lock-up until 20 June 2019.

The bookbuilding will start immediately. The result of the private placement will be announced after the closing of the accelerated book-building process. The Settlement and delivery of the shares is expected to take place on 16 June 2017.

This private placement is lead-managed by BNP Paribas and Societe Generale acting as Joint Global Coordinators and Joint Bookrunners.
