Once the number of seats on the administrative or supervisory body has been determined under the conditions provided for in Article L. 2373-7, the committee of the company resulting from the cross-border operation shall ensure that they are allocated in proportion to the number of employees of the company employed in each Member State of the European Union.
By way of derogation from the first paragraph, the committee shall, as far as possible, allocate at least one seat to each Member State which had an employee participation system prior to the registration of the company.
