Press release
Paris, 12 March 2021
Societe Generale’s Ordinary General
Meeting will be held on 18 May 2021 without the physical presence
of its shareholders
On 11 March 2021, Societe Generale’s Board of
Directors decided that the Ordinary General Meeting on 18 May 2021
will be held at 4pm, in the premises of Societe Generale, 17 cours
Valmy, 92972 La Défense, without the physical presence of its
shareholders given sanitary circumstances.
As a matter of fact, pursuant to mobility and
public gathering administrative restrictions due to sanitary
circumstances , the location where the General Meeting usually
takes place and which had been booked for this purpose, Paris Expo,
Espace Grande Arche, la Grande Arche, 92044 Paris-La Défense, is
currently closed to the public, without any reopening date
scheduled at the present time. Moreover, the technical
impossibility of verifying, remotely, the identity and status of
all the shareholders will make it impossible for live voting at
this General Meeting by telephone or audiovisual conference.
In this context, the Board of Directors, careful
with regard to the best respect the shareholders’ rights, has
decided:
- that, as every year, shareholders will be able to vote remotely
either by post or online;
- that an unprecedented system will be put in place to enable
shareholders voting online to ask questions during the General
Meeting. Its procedures will be specified at the date of the
convening notice;
- that, as every year, the General Meeting will be broadcast on
video, live and recorded for delayed viewing on the website
www.societegenerale.com;
- that a free telephone number will be made available to
shareholders to enable them to follow the General Meeting;
and
- to facilitate the use of written questions by postponing the
deadline for transmitting written questions by five days, until 16
May 2021 at 4:00 pm, and enable them to be sent by e-mail.
The notice of General Meeting, including the
agenda and the draft resolutions, as well as the conditions and
methods to vote remotely at the General Meeting, have been released
today in the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO).
Finally, in accordance with Article 8-1 of
Decree No. 2020-418 of 10 April 2020, the Board of Directors has
already appointed a scrutineer among the ten shareholders with the
largest number of voting rights and acknowledged that the other
scrutineer will be one of the nine others or, in the absence of
acceptance by one of them, the Chairman of the Supervisory Board of
the company mutual fund (FCPE) “Société Générale actionnariat
(FONDS E)”.
