Questions & answers

What are the different forms of general shareholders’ meetings?

 

The shareholders make their decisions at the General Shareholders’ Meetings which are qualified as ordinary or extraordinary.

The Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting is called upon to make all decisions which do not modify the capital or by-laws. Notably, it appoints, replaces, re-elects or revokes directors, approves, denies or corrects the financial statements, and rules on the distribution and allocation of benefits.

The Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting deliberates on all proposals of the Board of Directors aimed at modifying the capital or amending the company’s by-laws.

The Combined General Meeting puts together the previous two shareholders’ meetings (ordinary and extraordinary), on the same date and under the same convening notice.

 

What are the different ways of holding Coface shares?

 

COFACE shares can be held as registered (forme nominative) or bearer shares (au porteur) at the option of the holder. Any shareholder may, at its expense, change from one form of holding to the other.

Any shareholder may elect to have its shares held in registered form and registered in its name in an account currently maintained by UPTEVIA Corporate Trust (Cœur Défense, 90-110 Esplanade du Général de Gaulle - 92931 Paris la Défense Cedex - France) for and on behalf of the Company.

Any shareholder may elect to have its shares held in bearer form and recorded in its name in an account maintained by an accredited financial intermediary, such as a French broker, bank or other authorized financial institution.
