Articles L. 22-10-62, the first paragraph of Article L. 225-210 and Articles L. 225-211 and L. 22-10-64 of the French Commercial Code do not apply to SICAFs covered by this sub-paragraph.
A SICAF covered by this sub-paragraph is authorised to buy back its shares, without obtaining the authorisation of the General Meeting, up to a limit of 10% of its capital per year. However, this limit is increased to 25% when the share price is more than 10% below the net assets per share. The number of shares taken into account for the calculation of these limits corresponds to the number of shares purchased less the number of shares resold during the year. The SICAF’s Extraordinary General Meeting may authorise the repurchase of shares in excess of this 25% limit.
A SICAF covered by this sub-paragraph may not own, either directly or through a person acting in his own name but on behalf of the SICAF, more than 10% of the total of its own shares.
SICAFs covered by this sub-paragraph shall report to the Autorité des marchés financiers every month on the acquisitions, disposals, cancellations and transfers they have made. They shall publish the same information quarterly.
In the report provided for in Article L. 225-100 of the French Commercial Code, the number of shares purchased and sold during the year, the average purchase and sale prices, the amount of trading costs, the number of shares held at the end of the year and their value measured at the purchase price, as well as their nominal value, for each purpose, the number of shares used, any reallocations made and the fraction of the capital they represent.
