To help increase the number of shares held by individual investors and further increase the stock’s liquidity, in line with the practice observed on the world’s leading stock markets, the Board of Directors of BNP Paribas decided to use the authorization given at the General Meeting of 15 May 2001, by carrying out a two-for-one share-split and reducing the par value of the shares to EUR 2. The split shares have been traded on the market since 20 February 2002. As a result of the share-split, the parity of BNP Paribas ADRs has also been adjusted, with each BNP Paribas share now being represented by 2 ADRs.
