TechnipFMC has established February 16, 2021 as the distribution date (the Distribution Date ) and 5:00 p.m., New York time, on February 17, 2021 as the record date (the Record Date ). On the Distribution Date, TechnipFMC shareholders on the Record Date will be eligible to receive, based on the expected distribution ratio, one Technip Energies share for every five TechnipFMC shares (the Distribution ).

Following completion of such sale, each such TechnipFMC shareholder will receive from the relevant intermediary a cash payment from the net proceeds of the sale in lieu of any fractional Technip Energies shares that such TechnipFMC shareholder would have otherwise received.
