Press release
Placement of a minimum of 3,200,000Eurazeo shares and Issue of zero coupon bonds due 2016 exchangeable for a maximum of 5,084,582 Eurazeo shares
Paris, November 21, 2013 - Under its balance sheet optimization policy, Crédit Agricole S.A., which holds approximately 18.25 % of the share capital of Eurazeo, announces the combined launch of a placement of Eurazeo shares and an issue of zero coupon bonds exchangeable for Eurazeo shares, together relating to an initial number of approximately 8.3 million Eurazeo shares.
The placement of an initial number of 3,200,000 Eurazeo shares (the "Shares") will be carried out by way of a private placement through an accelerated bookbuilding process (the "Share Placement").
An offering by Crédit Agricole S.A. (the "Issuer") of zero coupon bonds exchangeable for existing shares of Eurazeo due 2016 (the "Bonds") will be carried out by way of a private placement through an accelerated bookbuilding process (the "Bond Issue").
The underlying shares of the Bond Issue represent a maximum of 5,084,582 existing shares of Eurazeo (including the over-allotment option granted to the Joint Bookrunners representing approximately 15 % of the initial size of the Bond Issue).
The nominal value of each Bond will correspond to a premium of 22 % compared to the sale price of the Shares under the Share Placement.
The Bonds will not bear interest (zero coupon) and will have a 3-year maturity (except in case of an early redemption). They will be redeemed at par at maturity (except in case of an early redemption), subject to the Issuer's option to deliver existing shares of Eurazeo and an additional amount in cash.
The Bonds will be issued at a price comprised between 100 % and 103 % of their nominal value, corresponding to a gross yield to maturity comprised between -0.98 % and 0 %.
Bondholders may exercise their right to exchange their Bonds for Eurazeo shares at a ratio of one Eurazeo share per Bond, subject to any subsequent adjustments, in particular relating to transactions affecting Eurazeo's share capital, and subject to the Issuer's option to pay in cash all or part of the value of the Eurazeo shares instead of delivering such shares.
The proceeds of the Share Placement and the Bond Issue will be used for general funding purposes of Crédit Agricole S.A. group.
The Share Placement and the Bond Issue are managed by Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank as sole Global Coordinator and Joint Bookrunner and Goldman Sachs International as Joint Bookrunner (together, the "Joint Bookrunners").
The Shares and the Bonds are being offered exclusively by way of a private placement in France and outside France, with the exception of the United States of America, Canada, Australia and Japan.
Settlement for the Share offering will take place three trading days after the determination of the price of the Share Placement.
Settlement for the Bond offering is expected to take place on 6 December 2013. An application will be made for the admission of the Bonds to trading on the Euro MTF market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.
Crédit Agricole S.A. has entered into a lock up agreement relating to the shares of Eurazeo that it will continue to hold following the closing of the Share Placement, for a period of 90 calendar days, subject to certain customary exceptions including the consent of the Joint Bookrunners.

How Barack Obama can get at least some of his credibility back
AN AMERICAN president’s most important power is not the veto pen or the ability to launch missiles. It is the bully pulpit. When a president speaks, the world listens. That is why Barack Obama’s credibility matters. If people do not believe what he says, his power to shape events withers. And recent events have seriously shaken people’s belief in Mr Obama. At home, the chaos of his health reform has made it harder for him to get anything else done. Abroad, he is seen as weak and disengaged, to the frustration of America’s allies.
Not all the barbs aimed at Mr Obama are fair. Our special report this week on American foreign policy notes that he inherited two miserable wars. He began his first term during the worst recession in 80 years. And the Republicans who shut down parts of the federal government last month and flirted recklessly with default bear much of the blame for Washington’s disarray. But the excuse that it is all someone else’s fault is wearing thin. Under Mr Obama, America seems rudderless and its power is being squandered. A more engaged president would handle the Republicans—and the rest of the world—with more skill.
The debacle of Obamacare has gravely weakened the president (see article). In the days before October 1st, when the online health-insurance exchange opened, he seemed blithely unaware that anything was amiss. Using it would be “real simple”, he told voters in Maryland on September 26th; it would work the “same way you shop for a TV on Amazon”. Alas, it did not. Millions tried to log on; few succeeded. The website was never properly tested, it transpires. Although this was Mr Obama’s most important domestic reform, no one was really in charge. Crucial specifications were changed at the last moment. Contractors warned that the website was not ready, but the message never reached the Oval Office. Big government IT projects often go awry, but rarely as spectacularly as this.
The Economist supported Obamacare when it passed Congress in 2010. We worried that the law was too complex (see article) and did too little to curb medical inflation, but it extended health insurance to the millions of Americans who lack it. The basic idea is sound: everyone must have insurance or pay a penalty. The cash-strapped receive big subsidies, and insurers are barred from charging more to those who are already sick. A more modest version of this reform works quite well in Massachusetts. A man with little interest in details and a disdain for business, Mr Obama tried to impose a gigantic change on the whole country all at once and far too casually.
The longer it takes to fix the website, the greater the chance that Obamacare will fail. Insurers have set their premiums on the assumption that lots of young, healthy people would be compelled to buy their policies. But if it takes dozens of attempts to sign up, the people who do so will be disproportionately the sick and desperate. Insurers could be stuck with a far more expensive pool of customers than they were expecting, and could have no choice but to raise prices next year. That would make Obamacare even less attractive to the young “invincibles” it needs to stay afloat.
To make matters worse, this sorry saga has caused American voters to doubt Mr Obama’s honesty. Time after time, when selling his reform, he told voters that if they liked their health insurance, they could “keep that insurance. Period. End of story.” Policy wonks knew this was untrue. Mr Obama’s number-crunchers quietly predicted that up to two-thirds of people with individual policies would be forced to change them, since the law would make many bare-bones plans illegal. But ordinary Americans took their president at his word; many were furious to learn last month that their old policies would be cancelled.
The poisonous politics of health care point to another common complaint about Mr Obama: that he gives great speeches but fails to build relationships. Abroad, he has cool relations with foreign heads of government. The leaders of allies such as Israel and Saudi Arabia scorn him. Europeans grumble that they are ignored when they want to be heard and spied on when they want to be left alone. Latin Americans feel neglected. Mr Obama’s “pivot” to Asia has made China feel threatened, without reassuring other Asians that America will be there in a crisis. Many doubt Mr Obama’s word—remember his “red line” over the use of chemical weapons in Syria?—and lament his inability to get things done.
At home, he seldom schmoozes with his political opponents—or even with his own side. Past presidents put in far more effort to charm and bully lawmakers, business moguls and anyone who could help them. Lyndon Johnson was famous for blackmailing congressmen to do the right thing, which is a hard art to practise if you barely know them. Mr Obama remains aloof—he has no regular breakfast or lunch even with the main Democrats in Congress. You cannot slap backs and twist arms if you are not in the same room.
Forget the Nobel halo—and roll up your sleeves There is a personal tragedy in this: a talented man who too often does not follow through. As Bill Clinton is reputed to have said, Mr Obama got all the hard stuff right, “but didn’t do the easy stuff at all”. Assuming that he still has the stomach for the fight, what can Mr Obama do to win back that lost credibility?
At home, the priority is simply to get his health exchange fixed. His announcement last week that people who have lost their old insurance will be allowed to get it back is a sham: he has given insurers neither the time nor the incentive to recreate the policies he previously ordered them to ditch. He should stop making empty promises, get rid of the aides who filter out bad news and roll up his sleeves.
Can he get any more done? Immigration reform is still just possible. He now says he is open to tackling it piecemeal, rather than in a comprehensive bill, which raises the chance that it will happen. An even bigger prize would be a long-term fix for America’s finances, with Republicans accepting some tax rises and Democrats tolerating cuts to entitlements. He has little to lose: at present he will go down in history, alongside George W. Bush, as a skipper who ignored the looming fiscal iceberg.
Fixing those problems would require Mr Obama to discover both Clintonian skills of triangulation and some Republicans who don’t hate him. As with other second-term presidents, foreign policy may offer more opportunity. The Obama brand is less tarnished abroad. And American power is sold short by a lot of people—including, sometimes, Mr Obama. With its matchless armed forces, a web of alliances and omnipresent soft power, the United States is still the world’s indispensable nation—as it has shown in the rescue efforts in the Philippines (see Banyan). When Mr Obama ordered a strike against Osama bin Laden, he proved that he can be decisive; when he patiently built the case with China and Russia for imposing sanctions on Iran, he was persuasive.
So Mr Obama can get things done when he puts the effort in. Our special report lays out the opportunities that a more committed and confident president could seize. In many regions, such as Latin America, just a little bit of attention could yield impressive results. Free-trade deals could tie in allies across the Atlantic and the Pacific. Having over-reached in Asia and with a string of domestic problems, China needs Mr Obama to keep the world stable. If Mr Obama can build a better relationship with China, he will advance both countries’ interests. An immediate test is Iran: an interim agreement to halt its nuclear programme would be a first step towards re-engaging America in the Middle East. But only if Mr Obama works at it and sells a deal to Israel and his Arab allies.
Mr Obama may not be able to walk on water. That is now painfully clear, perhaps even to him. But America’s first black president still has it in his power to leave the Oval Office famous for what he did, not just what he was.
BINYAMIN NETANYAHU, Israel’s prime minister, has reason to feel satisfied. Two weeks into his campaign against America’s “extraordinarily bad and dangerous deal” apparently in the offing with Iran over its nuclear programme, he is counting what he considers to be his successes. Leading American and European news channels have broadcast his interviews. The French president, François Hollande, who recently helped postpone a deal after a first round of talks between six world powers and Iran in Geneva, has beaten a path to his door. And now Mr Netanyahu is courting Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, in Moscow, ahead of another round. His ambassador in Washington, Ron Dermer, has encouraged Congress to tighten sanctions against Iran just as Mr Obama planned to ease them. Some Israeli officials worry that Mr Netanyahu’s bullishness may prove costly. Hitherto Mr Netanyahu’s differences with Barack Obama were over the Palestinians or the Israeli leader’s backing of Mitt Romney for America’s presidency. But now, for the first time, graver differences over strategy in the region are flaring into the open. "We’re not talking about an ill-chosen phrase or statement," says an Israeli official who fears American diplomatic retaliation. "We’re talking about a deep issue." Next time the Palestinians seek full membership of the UN, might America—for instance—withhold its veto or acquiesce to European sanctions if Israel continues to expand Jewish settlements on the West Bank, which Palestinians see as the core of a future state? Israel is already sidelined from international conferences on neighbouring Syria, bemoans Efraim Halévy, a former head of Mossad, Israel’s foreign intelligence service, whereas Iran finds itself increasingly on the inside track. Mr Obama’s visit to Israel in March patently failed to warm relations. On the Iranian front, the president has kept out of the public fray, letting John Kerry, his secretary of state, urge congressmen not to heed Mr Netanyahu, while putting off one of his latest scheduled visits to Israel. Not since 1991, when James Baker, the then secretary of state, supposedly left his telephone number for Israel to call when it was ready to resolve the Israel-Palestine issue, have relations been so bad, says the Israeli official. The further Mr Netanyahu’s strays from his American moorings, the closer he tacks towards the Gulf monarchs, most of whom share his disillusion with Mr Obama, especially over Iran. But cuddling up to Arab kings can hardly make up for the chilliness of relations with an American president.

During a pivotal scene in Gravity, Sandra Bullock's character Ryan Stone, trapped inside a Russian space capsule with little hope of survival, makes contact with a male voice speaking via radio in a foreign language. What unfolds on the other end of that fractured conversation, complete with a barking dog and a crying baby, is the subject of a short film by Jonas Cuaron, son of director Alfonso Cuaron, who co-wrote the screenplay for Warner Bros.' $500 million-grossing awards contender with his father. That seven-minute companion piece, titledAningaaq, was financed by Warner Home Video, which initially envisioned it as a unique extra feature for Gravity's Blu-ray edition. But the stark, contemplative Aningaaq has developed a life of its own via festival screenings at Venice and Telluride. Now Warners has submitted it for Oscar consideration in the live-action short category; should it snag a nomination alongside its sure-bet blockbuster companion, they are poised to make Academy Awards history as the first feature and spinoff short drawn from the same material to be nominated together in the same year. PHOTOS: 'Gravity' Spinoff 'Aningaaq' Explores the Other Side of Sandra Bullock's Call The idea for Aningaaq, which follows an Inuit fisherman stationed on a remote fjord in Greenland, occurred to the Cuarons as they were working out the beats for the Gravity screenplay. "It's this moment where the audience and the character get this hope that Ryan is finally going to be OK," Jonas, 31, tells THR. "Then you realize that everything gets lost in translation." Both Cuarons spent time in the glacial region (Alfonso once toyed with setting a movie there) and fell in love with the barren vastness of its frozen wilderness. During one of those visits, Alfonso met a drunken native who would become the basis for the title character, played by Greenland's Orto Ignatiussen. But it wasn't until Jonas, on a two-week trek gathering elements for his film, was inspired by the local inhabitants' profound attachment to their sled dogs that he decided to incorporate that element into the plot. The short was filmed "guerrilla style" on location on a budget of about $100,000 -- most of which went toward the 10-person crew's travel costs -- and Cuaron completed it in time to meld the dialogue into Gravity's final sound mix. The result is a seamless conversation between Aningaaq and Ryan, stranded 200 miles above him, the twin stories of isolated human survival providing thematic cohesion. Still, Jonas says he was careful "to make it a piece that could stand on its own." Should both get Oscar noms, an interesting dynamic would emerge: Two films potentially could win for representing different sides of one conversation, to say nothing of having come from father and son.
