Breaching of thresholds Under the terms of article 9 of the Articles of Association of Aéroports de Paris, any natural person or legal entity, acting individually or in concert, who should come to own, within the meaning of article L. 233-9 of the French Commercial Code, directly or indirectly, a number of shares or voting rights equal to or greater than 1% of the share capital of the Company or the voting rights therein is required, no later than the close of trading on the fourth trading day following the crossing of thresholds with effect from the registration of shares making it possible to reach or exceed this threshold, to declare to the Company the total number of shares and voting rights so held. In addition, such person must also inform Aéroports de Paris, in his or her letter disclosing that thresholds have been crossed, of the specific information outlined in the third paragraph of section I of article L. 233-7 of the French Commercial Code. This disclosure must be repeated in the above manner each time another 1% threshold is reached or crossed, both upwards and downwards, for whatever reason, up to the 5% threshold provided for within article L. 233-7 of the French Commercial Code. When the aforementioned 5% threshold is crossed, a disclosure must be made under the same conditions as set out above each time another 0.5% threshold is reached or crossed, both upwards and downwards, for whatever reason. Since 2009, the system of declaring thresholds has been expanded to include certain derivatives. The Articles of Association of the Company provide that in the case of non-compliance with the obligation to disclose that the thresholds have been crossed, one or more
shareholders holding at least 3% of the share capital or of the voting rights of Aéroports de Paris can request at the General Meeting that the securities that exceeded the limits subject to disclosure be deprived of their voting rights. Moreover, in addition to the provisions of the articles of association listed above, by virtue of the provisions of the French Commercial Code, all individuals or legal entities, acting alone or in concert, who own a number of shares representing more than 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 33.33%, 50%, 66.66%, 90% and 95% of the existing share capital or voting rights of the Company, must inform the Company and the French financial markets authority ( Autorité des marchés financiers – AMF), in writing, of the total number of shares or voting rights they own, no later than the close of business on the fourth day following the threshold being crossed. Declarations of threshold crossings are notified to the AMF made public by the latter. This information is also transmitted under the same time restrictions and conditions, when the shareholding or voting rights held is lower than the thresholds specified above. French government order ( ordonnance ) 2009-105 of 30 January 2009 and French law no. 2012-387 of 22 March 2012, amending the French Commercial Code, added to this system of declaring thresholds, particularly by expanding it to include certain financial derivatives and by increasing reporting requirements. Unless they are duly declared, the shares exceeding the portion that should have been declared in accordance with the above-mentioned legal provisions are deprived of voting rights for all General Meetings to be held until the expiry of a two-year period following the date of regularisation.
