Fifteenth resolution:  Authorization for the Company to purchase its own shares

Purpose

As of August 31, 2020, the Company held 1,442,351 treasury shares, corresponding to 1% of its share capital, mainly allocated to cover commitments to beneficiaries under restricted share plans and employee share purchase plans.

In the fifteenth resolution, shareholders are invited to renew the 18-month authorization granted to the Board of Directors to enable the Company to purchase its own shares at any time other than when a public tender offer for the Company’s shares is in progress.

Although French law authorizes share buybacks of up to 10% of a company’s share capital, it is proposed that they be limited to 5% of the share capital as of the date of the Annual Shareholders Meeting on January 12, 2021.

The maximum price of the shares that may be purchased under this share buyback program would be 90 euro per share and the total amount invested in the program may not exceed 663 million euro.

The shares purchased pursuant to this resolution would be used, inter alia, to (i) cover restricted share plans, (ii) reduce the Company’s share capital by canceling shares, and (iii) provide liquidity in Sodexo shares under the liquidity contract entered into between Sodexo and Exane BNP Paribas.

For information on the implementation of the previous share buyback authorization, see chapter 6, section 6.3.5 of the Company’s Fiscal 2020 Universal Registration Document.
