CALL OPTION
(a)
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Call Option, the Obligor hereby irrevocably undertakes to sell the Call Securities to the Beneficiary in the event that this Call Option is exercised in according with the terms hereof.
(b)
The Beneficiary accepts this Call Option as a unilateral call option agreement, which it has the right, but by no means the obligation, to exercise freely, in accordance with the following terms and conditions.
(c)
The Parties expressly agree that the promised sale of the Call Securities will only be subject to the consent of the Beneficiary and the Obligor acknowledges and agrees that no withdrawal of his consent, whether expressed before or after the sending of the Exercise Notice, shall have any effect on the conclusion of the sale of the Call Securities. Consequently, the sale of the Call Securities shall be deemed agreed among the Parties upon sending of the Exercise Notice by the Beneficiary, notwithstanding the behavior of the Obligor and may be enforced in accordance with Clause 8 (Enforceability and specific performance), should the Obligor fail to take any steps required to complete such sale as provided in Clause 6 (Completion).
(d)
The Obligor further acknowledges that the irrevocability of his agreement is an essential condition to the Call Option and that the execution by the Obligor of such an irrevocable Call Option was a condition precedent to the Obligor being granted with the opportunity to hold the Call Securities after the Initial Closing Date.
3.
NUMBER OF CALL SECURITIES
(a)
The Beneficiary may only exercise the Call Option for all (but not less than all) the Call Securities.
(b)
If the share capital of the Company is reduced for reasons unrelated to losses, or if the Securities are amortized or otherwise partially repaid, the Price shall be reduced by the amounts received by the Obligor as a result of such reduction, amortization or repayment.
For the avoidance of doubt:
in the event of a capital reduction (whether or not due to losses) resulting in the cancellation of Securities, this Call Option would be reduced to the number of Securities which the Obligor owns after the capital reduction, it being specified however that the Beneficiary agrees that the Obligor shall always retain ownership of at least one (1) Call Security. The Beneficiary expressly undertakes not to take any decision or vote in favor of a modification of the by-laws of the

4



Company, if such modification affects adversely the right of the Obligor to retain ownership of at least one (1) Call Security or, more generally, the rights of the Obligor under this Call Option;
in the event of a capital reduction due to losses, the Price for the Call Securities as defined in Clause 4 below shall not be reduced or affected whatsoever.
(c)
In the event of an issuance of Securities giving preferential subscription or acquisition rights to the Obligor and if the Obligor wishes to waive any such rights, he irrevocably agrees to transfer such rights to the Beneficiary for a price of one (1) euro. The fact that as a result of the issuance the Obligor will be diluted shall not affect the amount of the Price to be paid under Clause 4.
(d)
In case of merger of the Company with another company, as in case of division or any other change in the capital structure during the period of validity of this Call Option, the obligation of the Beneficiary shall apply to the shares or other securities of the new company(ies) issued to the Obligor in exchange for the Call Securities. The same shall apply in case of conversion of the Company into any other form of entity.
4.

(i)

(ii)
in the event that (x) a Good Leaver Termination occurred during the period beginning on the Initial Closing Date and ending on the Date of Exercise Notice or (y) no Bad Leaver Termination and no Good Leaver Termination occurred during the period beginning on the Initial Closing Date and ending on the Date of Exercise Notice, the Price shall be equal to:

(c)
If the Obligor is satisfied with the Draft Statement or the Obligor fails to send a Notice of Non-Acceptance within the period referred to in Clause 4.2(b), then such Exercise Notice shall constitute the Final Statement for the purposes of this Call Option and the Reference Year Revenues set out in the Exercise Notice shall be final and binding upon the Parties.
5.

If the Call Option is exercised pursuant to the provisions hereof, the transfer of ownership of the Call Securities in favor of the Beneficiary shall take place on the date notified by the Beneficiary in the Exercise Notice and which is determined pursuant to Article 8.1 of the Share Purchase Agreement (the "Completion Date").
In the event of a disagreement between the Parties regarding the final determination of the Price including the qualification of a Good/Bad Leaver Termination, the Parties shall proceed with the transfer of ownership of the Call Securities to the Beneficiary on Completion Date on the basis of a consideration for the acquisition equal to the Minimum Second Tranche Purchase Price multiplied by the ND Participation (i.e. the Price set forth in Clause 4.1(a)(i) above), without prejudice to ND’s right to seek and obtain additional consideration for the sale of the Call Securities under Clause 14 (Governing Law -Disputes) below.

(b)
At the latest on the Completion Date:

In the event that the Obligor does not complete the transfer of the Call Securities through the delivery of the documents referred to paragraph 6(b)(i) above, it is specifically agreed by the Obligor that the mere delivery to the Company of a copy of the Exercise Notice, together with written evidence that the Price indicated in the Exercise Notice has been paid to the Obligor, shall be deemed to constitute a notification by the Parties of the transfer of the Call Securities within the meaning of Article R.228-10 of the French Commercial Code, to which the Obligor specifically agrees, and the Company shall promptly register the sale of the Call Securities in the shareholders' accounts on the Completion Date. The Company expressly agrees to this mandate given to it by the Parties.

(b)
The Obligor declares and guarantees to the Beneficiary that he is the sole owner of the Call Securities and that, as long as the Call Option is valid, the Call Securities shall not be sold, transferred or encumbered by any proprietary right, call option, privilege, pledge or other security or right restricting their full ownership, possession or transferability, except for rights provided for in the by-laws of the Company, in the Shareholders' Agreement or the Put Options (as such term is defined under the Shareholders’ Agreement) and without prejudice to the right of the Obligor to register all or part of the Call Securities in the share saving plan (plan d'épargne en actions).

8.
ENFORCEABILITY AND SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE
(a)
The Obligor hereby expressly waives his rights to prevail himself of the provisions of Article 1142 of the French Civil Code with respect to the Call Option.
(b)
Consequently, the Parties expressly agree that, should the Obligor fail to perform his obligations hereunder, the Beneficiary may require the enforcement (exécution forçée) of the Call Option in order to obtain that the sale and delivery of the Call Securities be completed either in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 6(c) or by any other means, including through legal recourse under summary proceedings (en référé), without prejudice to any damages that the Beneficiary may further claim.
9.
SUBSTITUTION CALL OPTION
(a)

1.
Notice of Non-Acceptance
(a)
In the event that the Obligor has sent a Notice of Non-Acceptance within the period referred to in paragraph 4.2(b) then the Obligor shall set out in the Notice of Non-Acceptance, in reasonable details and with supporting documentation, those items of the Draft Statement on which he disagrees (the "Disputed Items"), the reasons for such disagreement and the adjustments that, in their opinion, should be made to the Disputed Items.
(b)
All items which are not specifically disputed in the Notice of Non-Acceptance in compliance with the preceding provisions shall be deemed agreed upon the Parties.
(c)
The Beneficiary, the Obligor and their respective accountants shall discuss in good faith the objections of the Obligor on the Disputed Items and shall use their reasonable endeavors to reach an agreement on such Disputed Items, within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Notice of Non-Acceptance (or any other date as the Beneficiary and the Obligor may agree in writing).
2.
Failure to Agree on the Purchase Price
(a)
If the Beneficiary and the Obligor do not reach an agreement on the Draft Statement within the period referred to in Clause 1.1.1(c) above, then the Disputed Items (and only those) shall be referred, on the application of either the Beneficiary or the Obligor, for determination to Deloitte Finance SAS.
(b)
If Deloitte Finance SAS (or any of its successor(s) appointed in accordance with the procedure set out hereafter) refuses, or is unable to carry out its mission hereunder, then the Beneficiary and the Obligor shall use all reasonable endeavors to agree on the appointment of another independent firm of internationally recognized chartered accountants. Failing an agreement among the Beneficiary and the Obligor on such designation within ten (10) Business Days, any of them may request the President of the Commercial Court of Paris ruling under the form of summary proceedings without recourse (statuant en la forme des référés et sans recours possible) to appoint an independent firm of internationally recognized chartered accountants.
(c)
Deloitte Finance SAS or its successor appointed in accordance with the procedure set out in paragraph (b) above shall be referred to herein as the "Expert".
(d)
The Parties hereby waive any rights to challenge the general conditions of the engagement of the Expert.

(b)
The mission of the Expert shall be limited to the review and resolution of the Disputed Items based solely upon the elements presented by the Parties and not by independent review. In determining each Disputed Item, the Expert may not assign value to such Disputed Item greater than the greater value allowed to such Item by either the Beneficiary or the Obligor or lesser than the lower value allowed to such Item by either of the Beneficiary or the Obligor.
(c)
The Expert shall act as pursuant to the provisions of Clause 1592 of the French Civil Code and its decision shall be final and binding on the Parties.

The decision of the Expert shall be founded and the Expert shall provide the Beneficiary and the Obligor with the Final Statement which shall state the amounts of the Reference Year Revenues and specify in reasonable details what adjustments, if any, have been made to the Draft Statement in respect of the Disputed Items.
(f)
The fees and expenses of the Expert shall be borne by the Parties in such proportions as shall be decided by the Expert, who shall base its decision upon the relative extent to which the Parties’ respective positions are upheld in the final determination of the Expert or, in the absence of such determination, equally between the Beneficiary, on one hand, and the Obligor, on the other hand.
