Following Stellantis N.V.’s announcement on March 10, 2021, the Distribution has become unconditional and will be distributed to shareholders of Stellantis N.V. as of the close of business on the record date, March 16, 2021.

Any payment of the cash portion of the Distribution to which you are entitled will be rounded down to the nearest whole Euro cent or U.S. Dollar cent.

If you are entitled to receive Faurecia ordinary shares in bearer (“au porteur” ) or in administrative registered form (“nominatif administré” ) in the Distribution and you hold Stellantis common shares in a Euroclear France participant account, you will receive those shares through the intermediary or nominee (bank, stockbroker, etc.) through which you currently hold your Stellantis common shares. 

If you are entitled to receive Faurecia ordinary shares in the Distribution and you hold Stellantis common shares in the Euroclear France Stellantis sub register managed by SGSS in pure registered form (“nominatif pur” ), you will receive Faurecia shares, through an account, in pure registered form (“nominatif pur” ) in Faurecia register managed by CACEIS. 

If you are entitled to receive Faurecia ordinary shares in the Distribution and you hold Stellantis common shares in a Monte Titoli participant account, you will receive those shares through the intermediary or nominee (bank, stockbroker, etc.) through which you currently hold your Stellantis common shares. 

If you are entitled to receive Faurecia ordinary shares in the Distribution and you hold Stellantis common shares in the Italian segment of Stellantis’s loyalty share register, you will receive Faurecia shares through Computershare S.p.A. (Italy) in your elected Monte Titoli participant account.

If you hold Stellantis common shares in a DTC participant account or directly on the U.S. Stellantis share register, please refer to “Do Stellantis shareholders need to take any further actions in order to receive the Faurecia shares?” below.

If you hold Stellantis common shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange and those shares are held through a broker, custodian or nominee, please contact your broker, custodian or nominee for assistance with the Distribution.

A:  No fractions of a Faurecia ordinary share will be distributed. Entitlements to Faurecia ordinary shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares, and any fractional entitlements to Faurecia ordinary shares will be aggregated with fractional entitlements from other shareholders and sold.  The pro-rata proceeds of such sale will be distributed to holders of Stellantis common shares who would have otherwise been entitled to receive such fractions of a Faurecia ordinary share as a result of the Distribution.  Where applicable, such values will be net of any fees or costs associated with the sale of the aggregated fractional entitlements.

A:  Due to the ratio for the distribution of Faurecia shares, many holders of Stellantis common shares as of the record date (March 16, 2021) will be entitled to a fractional entitlement.

The fractional entitlements, together with the Faurecia shares for which a Euroclear France election was not received (e.g. shareholder didn’t provide information to receive Faurecia shares as part of Distribution and, as a consequence, will receive the net proceeds from the sale of their Faurecia share entitlement), were aggregated and sold on the market between March 31, 2021 and April 7, 2021.    

Payments to shareholders on the U.S. Stellantis share register or in DTC participant accounts (e.g. broker, custodian, nominee), will have their proceeds paid to them in U.S. dollars following a foreign exchange conversion.  The details are as follows:

• Average Euro sale price of Faurecia shares:  €47.5412

• Official EUR/USD exchange rate per Bloomberg FX Fixings on April 8, 2021 at 6:00 pm CEST:  1.19045

• U.S. dollar value payable to investors (per whole share):  $56.59542

Cash in lieu of fractional shares are expected to be credited via DTC to DTC participants or sent via check to all other registered shareholders on April 16, 2021.

A:  The ordinary shares of Faurecia are not currently eligible for clearing and settlement through DTC or on a register maintained in the United States.  Therefore, if you are entitled to receive Faurecia ordinary shares in the Distribution and you hold Stellantis common shares in a DTC participant account or directly on the U.S. Stellantis share register, you will need to provide details of a securities account with an intermediary participating in Euroclear France on which your full entitlement to the Faurecia ordinary shares may be delivered. 

Stellantis will make available an online election facility for you to make such election following the record date of March 16, 2021. Additional information in this respect will be published on Stellantis’s corporate website (www.stellantis.com).  If you fail to make a valid election by 4:00 pm (U.S. Eastern Time) on March 26, 2021, Stellantis will be unable to deliver any Faurecia ordinary shares to you. 

If you do not have access to an account with an intermediary participating in Euroclear France or fail to make a valid election by 4:00 pm (U.S. Eastern Time) on March 26, 2021 via the online election facility, please refer to “What actions will be taken if I do not make an election via the online election facility?”  below.

If you hold Stellantis common shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange and those shares are held through a broker, custodian or nominee, please contact your broker, custodian or nominee for assistance with the Distribution.

A:  If a Direct Registration System (“DRS”) advice has been issued to you by Computershare, you hold your Stellantis common shares directly on the U.S. Stellantis share register. 

If you hold your securities through a broker, custodian or nominee, please contact your broker, custodian or nominee for assistance with the Distribution.

A:  Electing shareholders will need to provide their full Euroclear France participant account details, including account references and contact details for their receiving Euroclear France participant, including the details listed below.  Please contact your Euroclear France participant for assistance.

• Name of Euroclear France participant

• Account number of Euroclear France participant

• Name of sub-custodian

• Account of sub-custodian

A:  Elections need to be registered via the online election facility by no later than 4:00 pm (U.S. Eastern Time) on March 26, 2021.

A:  If you fail to make an election via the online election facility by 4:00 pm (U.S. Eastern Time) on March 26, 2021, Stellantis will be unable to deliver any Faurecia ordinary shares to you. 

Therefore, following the Distribution, Stellantis will take whatever measures it will deem practicable with respect to the Faurecia ordinary shares which you would otherwise have been entitled to receive, including potentially appointing a broker to sell such shares in the market. 

In that event, your pro-rata portion of the aggregate proceeds from all sales for DTC holders and holders of Stellantis shares in registered form will be delivered to you, net of all transaction costs including brokerage, administration and foreign exchange fees by check, unless a valid wire instruction has been provided via the online election facility.  There is no assurance regarding whether and when any such sale will be carried out or the proceeds will be distributed, the price per share that may be realized in the market, or the transaction costs that will be incurred. 

Stellantis DTC holders and holders of Stellantis common shares in registered form that do not have access to an account with an intermediary participating in Euroclear France may also use the online election facility to provide their bank account details into which any pro-rata sale proceeds (net of all transaction costs including brokerage, administration and foreign exchange fees) may be paid.  Failure to provide valid bank account details or a valid election to receive your Faurecia ordinary shares into an account with an intermediary participating in Euroclear France will result in such net sale proceeds being issued by check.

A:  The ordinary shares of Faurecia are expected to be credited to the securities accounts of holders of Stellantis common shares promptly following completion of the Distribution, depending on each Stellantis shareholder custodian/depositary. 

If you hold Stellantis common shares in (i) a Euroclear France participant account; (ii) the Euroclear France Stellantis sub register managed by SGSS; (iii) a Monte Titoli participant account; (iv) the Italian segment of Stellantis’s loyalty share register; or (v) the French segment of Stellantis’s loyalty share register, your Faurecia ordinary shares are expected to be delivered to you on March 22, 2021. 

If you hold Stellantis common shares in a DTC participant account or directly on the U.S. Stellantis share register and have made a valid election to receive Faurecia ordinary shares through a Euroclear France participant account, your Faurecia ordinary shares are expected to be delivered to you on or about April 1, 2021.

A:  To receive Faurecia shares, holders of Stellantis common shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange were required to provide an election to receive the Faurecia share entitlement through a Euroclear France participant account.  U.S. investors that did not make a valid election before 4:00 pm (U.S. Eastern Time) on March 26, 2021 will have had their Faurecia share entitlement sold, with any proceeds (minus any costs associated with the sale) returned to them on a pro-rata basis.

The Faurecia shares for which a Euroclear France election was not received from U.S. investors, together with the fractional entitlements, were aggregated and sold on the market between March 31, 2021 and April 7, 2021.

Payments to shareholders on the U.S. Stellantis share register or in DTC participant accounts (e.g. broker, custodian, nominee), will have their proceeds paid to them in U.S. dollars following a foreign exchange conversion.  The details are as follows:

• Average Euro sale price of Faurecia shares:  €47.5412

• Official EUR/USD exchange rate per Bloomberg FX Fixings on April 8, 2021 at 6:00 pm CEST:  1.19045

• U.S. dollar value payable to investors (per whole share):  $56.59542

Payments in respect of these sale proceeds are expected to be credited via a wire transfer, where a valid instruction was received prior to close of business on March 26, 2021, or sent via check to all other U.S. shareholders on the U.S. Stellantis share register and DTC participants on April 16, 2021.

A:  The cash portion of the Distribution is expected to be paid to you on March 22, 2021.

A:  No, all holders of Stellantis common shares as of the record date will be entitled to receive the portion of the Distribution to be paid in cash without the need to take further action.

A:  No. The number of Stellantis shares that you own will not change as a result of the Distribution.

A:  If you sell your Stellantis common shares prior to the ex-date you will not be entitled to the Distribution. 

If you sell your Stellantis common shares following the ex-date, but you still hold such shares on the record date, you can complete your trade before the Distribution is made and still remain entitled to the Distribution.
