    Resolutions falling within the scope of competence of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting

  4. Restructuring of the Company's financial debt

  5. The Company has drawn up for several months a restructuring plan of its financial debt aiming at allowing the group to find margins for financial manoeuvre to resume its Internet business provided for in its "Conquer 2018" plan with long-term and steady growth.

    A project of financial restructuring plan, resulting from discussions between the Company and a group of creditors with whom an agreement in principle was reached on 1 August 2016 (the "Initial Plan"), has been approved by the Company's creditors on 12 October 2016 but rejected by its shareholders during the combined general meeting held on 19 October 2016.

    New discussions have taken place between the different stakeholders. Such discussions have resulted in the unanimous adoption by the Company's Board of Directors, the association RegroupementPPLocal and a group of three creditors, representing approximatively 37% of the outstanding financial debt, of a revised financial restructuring plan, announced on 3 November 2016, that contains improvements for the Company and its shareholders compared to the Initial Plan (the "Revised Plan").

    This Revised Plan, just as the Initial Plan, provides that, in return for the principal amounts of their receivables, which amounted to €1,164 million (€M) as at 30 June 2016, SoLocal Group's financial creditors would receive:

    • a receivable of €400 M (which may be reduced to €340 M in the event of over- subscription to the share capital increase reserved to the shareholders described in the following point, the proceed of the over-subscription being used in this case to reduce the amount of the residual financial debt even further);

    • cash (stemming from a share capital increase with shareholders' preferential subscription rights preserved of €405 M that may be increased to €465.75 M in the event of over-subscription and, as the case may be, from share capital increases reserved to third party investors, who are not creditors of the Company, of an aggregate amount of €35 M);

    • MCB (obligations à option de conversion remboursables en actions) if the total amount of cash subscription to the share capital increase reserved to the shareholders and, as the case may be, to share capital increases reserved to third party investors who are not creditors of the Company, would be less than

      €300 M;

    • Company's shares that may be stemming from the share capital increase with shareholders' preferential subscription rights preserved if the latter is not fully subscribed to by the Company's shareholders (or by the assignees of preferential subscription rights), the financial creditors having to subscribe by way of set-off with receivables to all the shares that would not be subscribed to in cash by the Company's shareholders (or by the assignees of preferential subscription rights);

    • for the remainder of the debt, shares with warrants for shares attached (in the event where the total amount of cash subscription to the share capital increase reserved to shareholders and, as the case may be, to share capital increases reserved to third party investors who are not creditors of the Company, would be less than €250 M), stemming from a share capital increase reserved to the financial creditors with a subscription price per share which varies depending
