The bondholders’ redemption offer, provided for in the fifth paragraph of article L. 229-2, is the subject of a notice giving rise to two successive insertions, at least ten days apart, in two legal announcement media in the département of the registered office and in the Bulletin des annonces légales obligatoires when the company’s bonds are admitted to trading on a regulated market or when its bonds are not all in registered form.
The publication provided for in the previous paragraph is replaced, for holders of registered bonds, by the sending to each of them of a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, at the company’s expense.
The period within which bondholders may request redemption of their securities is three months from the last date of the publication formalities or receipt of the last registered letter, as the case may be.
This period is indicated in the notice and in the letter mentioned in the first and second paragraphs.
