A natural person may not hold more than one office as a member of the management board or sole managing director of public limited companies having their registered office on French territory.
As an exception to the provisions of the first paragraph:
a second term of office as a member of the management board or sole managing director or a term of office as managing director may be held in a controlled company within the meaning of Article L. 233-16 by the company of which that person is a member of the management board or sole managing director;
-A natural person holding a position as a member of the management board or sole managing director in a company may also hold a position as managing director, member of the management board or sole managing director in a company, provided that the securities of the latter are not admitted to trading on a regulated market.
Any natural person who finds himself in breach of the provisions of this article must resign from one of his offices within three months of his appointment, or from the office in question within three months of the event that led to the disappearance of one of the conditions set out in the previous paragraph. On expiry of this period, the director is deemed to have resigned, as the case may be, either from his new office or from the office no longer meeting the conditions set out in the previous paragraph, and must return any remuneration received, without the validity of the deliberations in which he took part being thereby called into question.
