INTRODUCTION

(A)                              Shareholders Authorization for Capital Increase

Pursuant to a resolution adopted by the shareholders of the Company at the General Shareholders Meeting held on 28 June 2005 (the “Shareholders Resolution”), the Board of Directors of the Company has been authorized, for a period of 26 months from such date, (i) to increase the equity capital of the Company, by issuing, with preferential subscription rights, shares and/or other securities giving access thereto, on one or more occasions, up to a total amount of equity capital equal to 100,000,000 euro in accordance with article L. 225-129 of the French Code de Commerce, and (ii) to determine the terms and conditions of such issuances of securities.

(B)                                The Warrants Offering

Pursuant to the Shareholders Resolution, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution at a meeting held on [23] January 2006 (the “Board of Directors Resolution”), authorizing a capital increase of [up to euro 65,000,000 (USD [•] at the exchange rate of [•])] (the “Capital Increase”) through the issuance of [18,307,756] free warrants (bons de souscription d’actions) to all existing shareholders (the “Warrants”) permitting holders thereof to subscribe to an aggregate of [•] ordinary shares of the Company, 1 euro nominal value each (the “Shares”).

In accordance with the Shareholders Resolution and the Board of Directors Resolution, the Company will issue the Warrants, free of charge, to all shareholders of record (as reflected in the accounts of ordinary shares maintained by authorised financial intermediaries (intermédiaires habilités)) as of [5:30] p.m. (Paris time) on [31] January 2006 (the “Record Date” or “Issuance Date”).  Each ordinary share of the Company held of record as of such time will entitle the registered owner thereof to one Warrant.  16 Warrants shall be needed for the holders thereof to subscribe for 45 Shares (new shares may be subscribed only in multiples of 45) at the exercise price of [•] euro per Share (the “Exercise Price”).

The Warrants may be exercised unconditionally or on the condition that the combination of (i) the unconditional exercise of Warrants, (ii) the conditional exercise of Warrants, (iii) the subscription of Shares pursuant to the Second Chance Offering (as defined below), and (iv) the subscription of Shares under this Agreement, shall permit the Company to raise at least 75% of the proposed Capital Increase (the “75% Condition”).  If it is determined after a centralization process following the Second Chance Offering that the 75% condition is met, then the exercise of the Warrants subject to this condition shall occur.  If the 75% Condition is not met, then the exercise of the Warrants subject to this condition shall not occur.

The Bank of New York, as depositary (the “Depositary”) under a Deposit Agreement with the Company and the registered holders and beneficial owners of American Depositary Receipts issued thereunder (the “American Depositary Receipts” or “ADRs”) evidencing American Depositary Shares each representing one-half of one ordinary share of the Company (the “American Depositary Shares” or “ADSs”), proposes to make available to such holders and owners ADS warrants to purchase newly-issued ADSs.  Each ADS held of record (as reflected in the books and records of the Depositary) as of the close of business (New York time) on [31] January 2006 will entitle the registered owners thereof to one warrant (an “ADS Warrant”).  32 ADS Warrants shall be needed by holders thereof to purchase 90 new ADSs (new ADSs may be subscribed only in multiples of 90) at the exercise price of USD [•] per ADS (which price is equivalent to the Exercise Price in euro at the exchange rate on [•] 2006, adjusted to reflect the ADS/Share ratio, plus an additional amount to provide for possible exchange rate fluctuations and to pay the fees and expenses of the Depositary).

The Warrants will be transferable and will be listed on Eurolist by Euronext for a period of 15 calendar days, commencing on the first trading day following the Record Date.  The ADS Warrants will not be transferable and will not be listed on any securities exchange.

The Warrants may be exercised at any time during the listing of the Warrants; that is, during the exercise period (the “Exercise Period”) from [1] February 2006, until 5:30 p.m. (Paris time) on [15] February 2006 (the “Warrant Expiration Date”).  The ADS Warrants cease to be exercisable at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on [13] February 2006.  Any exercise of the Warrants or ADS Warrants will be irrevocable.

The offering of the Shares underlying the Warrants to existing shareholders of the Company will consist of:

(i)                                     a public offering in France of Shares underlying the Warrants, which offering will be made pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act (as defined below) (the “Regulation S Offering”); and

(ii)                                  a public offering in the United States of ADSs underlying the ADS Warrants and Shares underlying the Warrants (the “U.S. Registered Offering”).

The Regulation S Offering and the U.S. Registered Offering are collectively referred to herein as the “Warrants Offering”.

For the purpose of the warrants offering in France and the listing of the new shares on Eurolist by Euronext, a prospectus in the French language (the “French Prospectus”) has been prepared (consisting of (A) an annual report (document de référence), which was filed by the Company with the Autorité des marchés financiers (the “AMF”) on May 2, 2005, under no. D.05-0618, (B) two updates to the annual report (actualisations du document de référence), which were filed by the Company with the AMF on August 10, 2005, and December 15, 2005, under nos. D.05-0618-A01, and 10.D.05-0618-A2, respectively, and (C) a transaction note (note d’opération), which received visa no. 06-[•] dated [30] January 2006, from the AMF).

In connection with the U.S. Registered Offering, the Company has filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-[130332]).  The various parts of such registration statement, including all exhibits

2

thereto and including (a) all amendments thereto filed with the Commission prior to the date hereof, [(b) the information contained in the form of final prospectus, if any, to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof and deemed by virtue of Rule 430A under the Securities Act to be part of the registration statement at the time it is declared effective,] and (c) all documents or reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which constitute the only documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained in the registration statement at the time such part of the registration statement became effective, each as amended at the time such part becomes effective, are hereinafter collectively called the “Registration Statement”.  Such final prospectus, in the form first filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, is hereinafter called the “U.S. Prospectus”.  Any reference herein to the U.S. Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form F-3 under the Securities Act, as of the date of such U.S. Prospectus.  Any reference to any amendment or supplement to the U.S. Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after the date of the U.S. Prospectus under the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in the U.S. Prospectus.  Any reference to any amendment to the Registration Statement shall be deemed to refer to and include any report of the Company filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the effective date of the Registration Statement that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

The French Prospectus and the U.S. Prospectus are hereinafter collectively called the “Offering Documents” and individually an “Offering Document”.  For purposes of the representations and warranties herein, information shall not be considered to be contained in all Offering Documents unless it is in each Offering Document and does not differ substantively in one Offering Document compared to another.

(C)                                The “Second Chance” Offering of Shares and the Purchase Guarantee

The Company desires to obtain commitments for the subscription of such of the Shares as shall not be subscribed pursuant to the exercise of Warrants.  Subject to the terms and conditions herein,

the Company, pursuant to a separate agency agreement between the Parties, proposes to automatically repurchase any unexercised Warrants as agent (commissionaire as defined in Article L.132-1 of the French Commercial Code) in its name but for the account of HSBC; and

HSBC proposes to exercise those Warrants (subject to the threshold condition described below); and

to offer, for a period of three trading days following the Warrant Expiration Date (the “Second Chance Offering”), all of the Shares resulting from such exercise to qualified investors outside of the U.S. in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S under the Securities Act; and

if any Shares resulting from such exercise remain after such Second Chance Offering, to resell the remaining Shares to the lenders under the Company’s and

3

Genesys Conferencing, Inc.’s (“GCI”) principle credit facility.  Such lenders are identified in Schedule 1 hereto (the “Lenders”).

HSBC and the Lenders are parties to an agreement whereby the Lenders have committed to purchase from HSBC any Shares resulting from its exercise of the Warrants (other than Shares sold in the Second Chance Offering).

The exercise of the Warrants by HSBC will be subject to the condition that the Shares resulting therefrom shall not exceed more than one-third (1/3) of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company (after taking into account the Shares to be issued upon such exercise or upon exercise of Warrants by any other Warrant holder).  Any purported exercise that would cause such threshold to be exceeded will be deemed null and void.  The reason for this condition is that an acquisition of a greater number of Shares could require the Lenders to make a tender offer for the Company under French law.

(D)                               The Reserved Capital Increase

The AMF granted a waiver from the French mandatory tender offer rule to HSBC and Banc of America Securities Limited, pursuant to a rule (Section 234-8 2° of the AMF’s General Regulation) that allows the AMF to grant such waivers in cases of companies in financial difficulty.  To be irrevocable, the waiver must be unchallenged during a ten-day observatory period following disclosure of the AMF decision to the pubic (such ten-day period expired before the Issuance Date).  The waiver requires as a condition to its applicability that the Company’s shareholders will have approved the capital increase at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting.  If the amount of unsubscribed Shares in the Warrants Offering exceeds one-third of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company (and, as a result, the exercise of the Warrants is limited by the threshold condition), then the Company will hold an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders and use its best efforts to obtain at such meeting its shareholders’ authorization to issue, to the Lenders, in a capital increase reserved to them and underwritten by HSBC, a number of shares equal to the amount of unsubscribed Shares in the Warrants Offering in excess of such one-third threshold.  The Lenders shall, at their sole discretion, subscribe to such Shares either in cash or by means of set-off of debt (compensation de créances) at a price per share equal to the Exercise Price.  The foregoing obligations relating to the reserved capital increase (the “Reserved Capital Increase”) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of an investment agreement between the Company, HSBC and the Lenders.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the aforementioned premises and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby agree as follows:

1.                                       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE COMPANY

1.2                                 Material Adverse Change

1.8                                 Corporate Existence and Power

The Company has been duly organized and has been and is validly existing as a corporation with limited liability since it was incorporated under the laws of France, with

On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, HSBC agrees to the following repurchase provision.  Acting in its name but for the account of HSBC, the Company as agent (commissionaire, as defined in Section L.132-1 of the French Commercial Code) shall, pursuant to an agency agreement between the Parties, automatically repurchase the Warrants that have not been exercised by 5:30 p.m. (Paris time) on the last day of the Exercise Period (i.e., [15] February 2006) (the “Warrants Unexercised by the Market”).  For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Company will not acquire at any time and under any circumstance title to the Warrants, and (ii) the repurchase of the Warrants Unexercised by the Market will be unconditional and irrevocable.  The repurchase price for the Warrants Unexercised by the Market shall be the greater of (A) €0.01 per Warrant, or (B) the excess of the per share price of the Shares sold in the Second Chance Offering, over the exercise price of the Warrants.  HSBC shall transfer to the Warrant holders the repurchase price of the Warrants Unexercised by the Market that are repurchased by such holders, except that if the price of the Shares purchased in the Second Chance Offering is less than €0.01 above the exercise price of the Warrants, the Company shall pay the difference (the Company shall pay a maximum of €183,307.76 if the price in the Second Chance Offering is equal to the exercise price of the Warrants).  Payment of the repurchase price shall be made on the Closing Date.

2.2                                 Exercise of Warrants by HSBC

On the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, HSBC shall exercise the Warrants Unexercised by the Market on the last day of the Exercise Period (i.e., [15] February 2006) at 6:00 pm (Paris time) (the “Exercise Time”) automatically, without notice and for the number of Warrants to be specified, after a centralization process, pursuant to the notification under Section 2.5, but only to the extent that the Shares resulting therefrom do not exceed one-third of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares on such date (after taking into account the Shares to be issued upon such exercise or upon exercise of Warrants by any other Warrant holder).  The exercise by HSBC of any Warrant Unexercised by the Market shall be conditioned upon such threshold not being exceeded (the “Threshold Condition”), and any purported exercise that would cause such threshold to be exceeded shall be null and void for the portion exceeding such threshold.

12

2.3                                 Receipt of Second Chance Orders by HSBC

During the period of three trading days ending at 5:30 p.m. on the third trading day following the last day of the Exercise Period (i.e., [•] February 2006), HSBC shall receive, through authorized financial intermediaries, irrevocable orders from qualified investors to purchase Shares (the “Second Chance Shares”) at a price at least equal to the Exercise Price (the “Second Chance Orders”) on the terms set forth herein.  In connection with the Second Chance Offering, HSBC will provide a notice through the Euroclear France system to the effect that the Second Chance Offering is being made only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S, and that Second Chance Orders may not be accepted by financial intermediaries from any person that is in the United States when such person places the order, or that has an account with an address in the United States, and that any Second Chance Orders that do not meet such restriction will be considered null and void.  HSBC represents and agrees that it and any person acting on its behalf has not and will not use “directed selling efforts” (within the meaning of Rule 902(c) of Regulation S) in connection with the Second Chance Offering.

In addition, in connection with the Second Chance Offering, HSBC will provide a notice through the Euroclear France system to the effect that:

(i)                                     none of the Offering Documents or any other document has been filed or registered for the purpose of making a public offering or the distribution of such Offering Documents in any country other than, in the case of the French Prospectus only, France in connection with the Second Chance Offering, and the Second Chance Offering is not made to any person or in any jurisdiction where any such filing or registration would be required;

(ii)                                  the Second Chance Offering does not include any public offering of the Second Chance Shares in any member state of the European Union other than France (each, a “Member State”) except to qualified investors within the meaning of the Directive 2003/71/EC (together with any relevant implementing measure in each Member State, the “Prospectus Directive”) or to a person to whom such Second Chance Shares may otherwise be offered without the publication by the Company of a prospectus pursuant to the Prospectus Directive or pursuant to any applicable laws of relevant Members States in connection with a public offering of securities; and

(iii)                               (A) financial intermediaries should only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ (the “FSMA”)) received by it in connection with the sale of the Second Chance Shares in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of the FSMA does not apply to the Company, and (B) financial intermediaries must comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by them in relation to the Second Chance Shares in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

To the extent that HSBC or any of its affiliates solicits or otherwise receives orders from its own customers in connection with the Second Chance Offering, it will comply (and will ensure that such affiliate complies) with the foregoing restrictions.

13

Second Chance Shares will be allocated to potential purchasers commencing with the Second Chance Orders made at the highest price.  Second Chance Orders made by several investors at the same price will be allocated among such investors on a pro rata basis, rounded to avoid the sale of fractional shares.  The number of Second Chance Shares will under no circumstances exceed the number of Shares underlying the Warrants Unexercised by the Market.  The price at which Second Chance Shares shall be sold in the Second Chance Offering will be the greater of (a) the exercise price of the Warrants, and (b) the highest price at which all Second Chance Shares can be sold in accordance with the foregoing allocation procedures.  For the avoidance of doubt, all Second Chance Shares shall be sold at the same price.

2.4                                 Resale of Excess Shares to the Lenders

If any Shares resulting from HSBC’s exercise of the Warrants remain after the purchase of the Second Chance Shares, then HSBC shall resell the remaining Shares (the ”Excess Shares”) to the Lenders at a price equal to the Exercise Price.

2.5                                 Payment and delivery

The Shares resulting from HSBC’s exercise of the Warrants will be directly issued and delivered by the Company on the Closing Date (defined below) to (i) the persons having been allocated shares pursuant to Second Chance Orders (the “Second Chance Investors”), or (ii) the Lenders.  As a result, HSBC will not acquire legal title to any Shares at any time.

In accordance with Section 2.2 of this Agreement, HSBC will exercise the Warrants Unexercised by the Market at the Exercise Time automatically, without notice and for the number of such Warrants to be specified, after a centralization process, in a written written notice from the Etablissement Centralisateur of the number of Warrants Unexercised by the Market.  After receiving on the Notification Date such notice, HSBC shall (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5 hereof) notify each Second Chance Investor and Lender of the number of Shares and the purchase price therefor no later than [•] Paris time one business day after the Notification Date.  The “Notification Date” means [23] February 2006, or such later date on which the Etablissement Centralisateur has notified the Company and HSBC of the number of Warrants Unexercised by the Market prior to noon on such date.

The Company agrees that HSBC may satisfy in whole or in part its obligation to pay the Company the Exercise Price for the Excess Shares by substituting one or more of the Lenders in its obligation to pay therefor, and that any such Lender is entitled to pay all or a portion of the Exercise Price for such Excess Shares by means of set-off of such Exercise Price against the aggregate outstanding debt obligations (including principal, interest and other amounts) of the Company owed to the Lender (compensation de créances).  HSBC and the Lenders shall be entitled to require that, prior to such payment(s) by set-off, the Company and Genesys Conferencing, Inc. (“GCI”), enter into and perform such agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Lenders (the “Set-Off Agreement”) as may be necessary to permit such set-off by means of the Company’s assumption of GCI’s debt obligations to the Lenders or other arrangements satisfactory to

14

HSBC and the Lenders.  HSBC and the Lenders shall send to the Company, within two days after the Notification Date, a written request specifying the amount of debt obligations to be set-off.  For purposes of any such set-off, debt obligations in U.S. dollars shall be set-off against an Exercise Price in U.S. dollars equal to USD [•] per share (i.e., [•] euro per share at an exchange rate of [•]).

No later than 6:00 p.m. Paris time on the [• business day] after the Notification Date (the “Closing Date”), the Company shall issue and deliver the Shares for the Second Chance Investors to the accounts specified by HSBC and the Etablissement Centralisateur, against payment of the aggregate share subscription price for all Second Chance Orders by wire transfer of same-day funds to the Etablissement Centralisateur for the account of the Company.

On the Closing Date, the Company shall issue and deliver the Excess Shares for the Lenders to the accounts specified by HSBC, such delivery to be free of payment to the extent of the Lenders’ purchase by set-off and against payment to the extent of the Lenders’ purchase in cash. Payment for the Excess Shares (whether in the form of set-off or cash) shall occur at the same time as such delivery.

2.6                                 Commissions

In consideration of the obligations undertaken by HSBC and the Lenders concerning the Company’s recapitalization as described in the Offering Documents, the Company agrees to pay, on the Closing Date, by wire transfer in same-day funds to an account designated by HSBC, (i) on behalf of itself and the several Lenders, a commission equal to USD 900,000 and 6.23% of the Exercise Price for all Shares issued by the Company in connection with the Warrant Offering, the Second Chance Offering and this Agreement (it being understood that any commissions relating to the Reserved Capital Increase, if any, are covered by a separate agreement), and (ii) on behalf of itself, an incentive fee (exclusive of any applicable VAT) of up to USD 300,000, calculated as follows, but, in each case, conditioned upon the avoidance of the Reserved Capital Increase: (A) USD 200,000, if a portion of the Shares are subscribed to by the market by the close of the Second Chance Offering and a portion are subscribed to by the Lenders so that the Lenders hold 1/3 of the Company’s share capital; (B) USD 200,000 plus, if the Lenders have subscribed to some, but less than 1/3, of the Company’s share capital, an additional pro rata portion of USD 100,000 (such pro rata portion calculated as follows: if 90% or more of the Shares are subscribed to by the market, HSBC shall receive 100% of the USD 100,000, but if less than 90% of the Shares are subscribed to by the market (the rest being subscribed to by the Lenders), HSBC shall receive a reduced amount of the USD 100,000 calculated in a linear relationship thereto); or (C) USD 300,000, if the Shares are fully subscribed to by the market by the close of the Second Chance Offering.

the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim, and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party

6.4                                 Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse

If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel that are reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6.1(iv) herein effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into, and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party for such fees and expenses of counsel in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

7.                                       CONTRIBUTION

If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and HSBC, on the other, from the offering of the Shares.  If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section 6.3 above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and HSBC on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and HSBC on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total commissions received by HSBC with respect to the Shares under this Agreement.  The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or HSBC on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The Company and HSBC agree that it would not be just and equitable if

24

contributions pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7.  The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, HSBC shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares subscribed by it were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which HSBC has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the U.S. Securities Act and the laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdictions where the Shares or ADSs are offered and sold) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  HSBC’s obligations in this Section 7 to contribute are several in proportion to their respective investment obligations and not joint.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls HSBC within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of HSBC under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which HSBC may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

8.                                       REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE DELIVERY

All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of HSBC or any controlling person, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the Shares to the Lenders.

9.                                       TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

9.1                                 Termination:  General

HSBC may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Offering Documents, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in France, the United Kingdom or the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or

25

economic conditions or currency exchange rates, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of HSBC, impracticable to market the Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares, (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the competent stock market authorities, or if trading generally on any of Euronext, the London Stock Exchange and Nasdaq has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the competent stock market authorities or any other governmental authority, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by any of the French, British, United States Federal or New York authorities.

9.2                                 Liabilities

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 1, 6, 7 and 8 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

15.                                 JUDGMENT CURRENCY

Each of the Company and HSBC agrees to indemnify each party entitled to indemnification or contribution pursuant to Sections 6 and 7 hereof from any losses incurred as a result of any judgment being rendered in connection with this Agreement or the Offering Documents for which indemnification or contribution is provided pursuant to Sections 6 and 7 hereof and such judgment or order being paid in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than euro as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which euro are converted to in the Judgment Currency for purposes of such judgement or order, and (ii) the spot rate of exchange in London, England, at which the indemnified party on the date of payment of such judgment or order is able to purchase euro with the amount of Judgment Currency actually received by the indemnified party.  The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of each of the Company and HSBC and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid.  The term “spot rate of exchange” shall include any premiums or costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, euro.
