SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT
SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT dated as of August 20, 1997 (the "Agreement") to
the Deposit Agreement dated as of February 13, 1997 (the "Deposit Agreement"),
among ILOG S.A., a societe anonyme organized under the laws of France, and its
successors (the "Company"), Xxxxxx Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as
depositary (the "Depositary"), and all Holders from time to time of American
Depositary Receipts (the "ADRs") issued thereunder.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Company and the Depositary executed the Deposit Agreement
for the purposes set forth therein;
WHEREAS, notwithstanding Paragraph (1) of the form of ADR of the Deposit
Agreement, the Company has requested that the Depositary accept one or more
deposits of Shares that are "restricted securities" (as such term is defined in
Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) in certificated form
which may not be freely transferred at the time of deposit in accordance with
such Rule (such securities, "Limited Transfer Securities") into the ADR facility
established pursuant to the Deposit Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Company desires that, upon a deposit of Limited Transfer
Securities, restricted ADSs evidenced by restricted ADRs be issued to or upon
the order of the depositor upon compliance with the provisions of the Deposit
Agreement governing the deposit of Shares and that such restricted ADSs be
subject to terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and the further terms,
conditions and restrictions set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Depositary desire to enter into this
Agreement in order to permit the issuance of such
2
restricted ADSs under the Deposit Agreement and the delivery thereof to or upon
the order of the depositor (such person or entity entitled to receive such
restricted ADSs being the "Depositee" and each such issuance being a
"Transaction").
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements
herein set forth and for good and valuable consideration, the Company and the
Depositary hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined in this
Agreement, terms which are defined in the Deposit Agreement are used herein as
therein defined.
Section 2. Issuance of Restricted ADRs. Until such time as the
Depositary has received an opinion of U.S. counsel to the company (or, at the
option of the Company, counsel to the Depositee) in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Depositary and, in the event that
counsel to the Depositee delivers such opinion, reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, stating that the Shares underlying the ADRs issued in connection with
the Transaction have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") or such ADRs, and those ADRs issued on the
transfer, split-up or combination thereof, may be freely transferred under Rule
144 under the Securities Act or another applicable exemption from the
registration requirements thereof, any ADRs issued in connection with the
Transaction or on the Transfer, split-up or combination thereof shall contain
the following legends (the "Legends"):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS RECEIPT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") AND ARE
"RESTRICTED SECURITIES" AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE
ACT. THE
3
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE OR OTHERWISE
DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT (i) IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SHARES UNDER THE ACT OR (ii) IN
COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144, OR (iii) PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION
OR COMPLIANCE IS NOT REQUIRED AS TO SAID SALE, OFFER OR
DISTRIBUTION.
THE HOLDER WHOSE NAME APPEARS ON THIS RECEIPT WAS AN AFFILIATE
OF THE COMPANY ON THE DATE OF ISSUANCE HEREOF. NEITHER THE
SHARES NOR THE AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES REPRESENTING SUCH
SHARES MAY BE SOLD, EXCHANGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR
OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 OF THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.
Section 3. Segregation of Deposited Securities. At such time as
any restricted ADRs are issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositary shall
instruct the Custodian to hold all Deposited Securities evidenced by the ADSs
represented by the restricted ADRs for so long as such ADRs are restricted in an
account or accounts that are segregated and separate from any other account or
accounts in which Shares of the Company may be held.
Section 4. Form of ADRs. At the discretion of the Depositary, any
ADRs to be issued containing the Legend may be issued pursuant to Section 2 of
the Deposit Agreement on safety paper or shall be printed or lithographed or
shall be in such other form as the Depositary shall so desire. If safety paper
is utilized, such ADR shall not set forth the CUSIP number present on the
other ADRs issued under the Deposit Agreement.
Section 5. Terms and Conditions Applicable to ADRs. Subject to
the further terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein, all terms and
provisions of the Deposit Agreement are and shall continue to be in full force
and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified, confirmed and incorporated
by
3
4
reference herein. No person depositing a Limited Transfer Security
shall be deemed under Paragraph (1) of the form of ADR and any other
provisions thereof, to represent and warrant that such security is
not a Limited Transfer Security.
Section 6. Inconsistent Provisions. To the extent that any term
or provision of this Agreement shall be inconsistent with a term or
provision of the Deposit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall take precedence only to the extent of such inconsistency.
