In parallel, the Company announces its intention to issue new undated deeply subordinated notes denominated in euro under its EMTN programme (the "New Notes").
The tender offer is subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum dated 20 October 2026, including the successful completion of the issue of New Notes. In particular, in respect of the October 2027 Notes, the November 2028 Notes, the April 2030 Notes, the November 2030 Notes, the March 2032 Notes and the November 2032 Notes (the "Capped Notes"), the tender offer is subject to a maximum acceptance amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes less €600,000,000, subject to right of the Company to increase or decrease such amount in its sole and absolute discretion. The September 2027 Notes are not subject to this maximum acceptance amount, and the Company intends to repurchase all of the September 2027 Notes validly tendered, subject to the successful completion of the issue of the New Notes.
The purpose of the tender offer and of the intended issuance of New Notes is, among other things, to proactively manage the Company's capital structure and expected redemption profile. The tender offer also provides noteholders with the opportunity to sell their current holdings and to apply for priority in the allocation of the New Notes.
The tender offer will run from 20 October 2026 to 27 October 2026 at 4:00 p.m. (Paris time). The pricing of the New Notes is expected to be announced prior to 27 October 2026, with the announcement of the maximum acceptance amount following as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The results of the tender offer are expected to be announced on 28 October 2026.
