Share consolidations provided for in article L. 228-29-1 include the obligation for shareholders to make the purchases or sales of shares necessary to carry out the reverse split.
The nominal value of the consolidated shares may not exceed an amount set by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
To facilitate these operations, the company must, before the decision of the general meeting, obtain an undertaking from one or more shareholders to serve, for a period of two years, at the price set by the meeting, as consideration for both the purchase and sale of bids for fractional shares or requests to increase the number of shares owned by each of the shareholders concerned.
