Capgemini will implement a squeeze-out on Altran shares

Paris, April 2, 2020 – In accordance with the notice published by the French financial market authority (Autorité des marchés financiers – AMF) today, Capgemini (Euronext Paris: CAP) will implement on April 15, 2020 a squeeze-out with respect to all the remaining shares of Altran Technologies (Euronext Paris: ALT) which have not yet been tendered.

The squeeze-out will apply to all Altran shares which have not been tendered to the tender offer, with the exception of the 2,461,800 Altran treasury shares, i.e. 4,749,218 Altran shares representing 1.85% of the share capital and 1.97% of the voting rights[1].

The compensation to be paid in connection with the squeeze-out will be equal to the price of the tender offer, i.e. 14.50 euros per Altran share.

Once Euroclear France has closed the affiliates’ accounts, the custody account-keeping institutions will request BNP Paribas Securities Services (Affilié 030), 9, rue du Débarcadère, 93500 Pantin, France, to make payment of the compensation for the shares registered in their books which have not been tendered to the tender offer, and will credit the accounts of the Altran shareholders with the compensation due. BNP Paribas Securities Services has been appointed by Capgemini to act as the custody account-keeper to centralize completion of the transactions in connection with the squeeze-out.

The funds corresponding to the compensation not requested by the custody account-keeping institutions on behalf of the beneficiaries will be kept by BNP Paribas Securities Services for a period of ten years after the squeeze-out and will be transferred to the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations following the expiry of such period. Such funds may be claimed at any time by their respective beneficiaries, subject to a thirty-year statute of limitations, after which the funds will become the property of the French State.

Altran shares will be delisted from Euronext in Paris after the closing of the market on April 15, 2020, the date on which the squeeze-out will be implemented.
