CHAIRMAN'S MESSAGE

Ladies and Gentlemen, dear Shareholders,

I am pleased to inform you that the Shareholders' Meeting will be held on Friday, June 26, 2020, at 2:30 p.m.

In the exceptional context of the Covid-19 pandemic and in line with the measures taken by the French government to slow down the spread of the virus, we have decided to hold this Shareholders' Meeting behind closed doors, without the shareholders and any person entitled to attend being physically present.

I regret not being able to welcome you and exchange our views as we usually do during this important time in Danone's life.

Despite these particular circumstances, I invite you to exercise your rights as shareholders, by asking questions and voting on the important decisions that will give Danone the means to achieve its ambitions. For this purpose, you can send your questions and vote by internet or by correspondence, or by giving a proxy to the Chairman of the Meeting or to any person of your choice.

You will find in this document the practical procedures for taking part in the vote and asking your questions, along with the resolutions submitted to your approval.

Moreover, you will be able to follow remotely the Shareholders' Meeting which will be webcast live and recorded for later viewing, in French and English, on Danone's website: www.danone.com.

Relying on your understanding in these exceptional circumstances, on behalf of the Board of Directors I would like to thank all of you for your trust and support.

Emmanuel Faber

OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE INCOME STATEMENT

Consolidated recurring operating income and recurring operating margin

In 2019, Danone's recurring operating income stood at €3.8 billion. The recurring operating margin reached 15.21%, up +76 bps on a reported basis.

On a like-for-like basis, recurring operating margin increased by +71bps driven by gross margin improvement - as an outcome of the continued portfolio valorization efforts and focus on efficiency offsetting the strong inflation on raw materials - and sustained sales and marketing investments. In total, gross savings reached €900 million for the year. The Protein program delivered approximately €400 million gross savings, bringing the cumulated savings since its launch in 2017 to around €700 million.

In addition, reported margin also included:

  • the positive scope effect of +20bps, reflecting the impact of the Earthbound Farm divestiture;
  • a slight positive effect from currencies, at +6bps; and
  • a negative effect of-21bps reflecting Argentina's impact on margin.

Cost of goods sold totaled €12,878 million in 2019 (€12,729 million in 2018), or 50.9% of consolidated sales (51.6% in 2018). Global input costs posted more than 6% inflation for the Company in 2019, including close to 10% inflation for milk and mid-single digit inflation for plastics.

Selling expense totaled €5,773 million in 2019 (€5,640 million in 2018), or 22.8% of consolidated sales, broadly in line with 2018 (22.9%).

General and administrative expense totaled €2,385 million in 2019, or 9.4% of consolidated sales (9.0% in 2018).

Research and Development costs totaled €351 million in 2018, slightly above 2018 (€335 million).

Other income and expenses stood at €53 million in 2019 (€164 million in 2018).

FREE CASH FLOW AND NET DEBT

Free cash flow

Free cash flow grew +12.5% in 2019 to €2.5 billion, and free cash flow conversion ratio significantly increased to 9.9% of sales, driven

by stronger operating performance and capital discipline. Capex amounted to €951 million in 2019, or 3.8% of net sales, in line with 2018.

Net debt

The application of IFRS 16 increased Danone's net debt as of January 1, 2019 by €670 million, from €12,744 million to €13,414 million.

Danone's net debt totaled €12,819 million as of December 31, 2019, €595 million lower than as of January 1, 2019. It included €482 million of put options granted to non-controlling interests, €26 million lower than as of December 31, 2018.

Dividend paid in respect of 2019 fiscal year

At the Annual General Meeting on June 26, 2020, Danone's Board of Directors will propose a dividend increase of 16 cents to €2.10 per share, in cash, in respect of the 2019 fiscal year. This dividend increase is in line with recurring earnings progression and reflects

the solid financial position of the Company and the strong confidence of both the Board and the management.

Assuming this proposal is approved, the ex-dividend date will be July 14, 2020 and dividends will be payable on July 16, 2020.

APPROVAL OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE 2019 FISCAL YEAR

Purpose

The resolutions 1 and 2 relate to the approval of the statutory and consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

It is specified that for the 2019 fiscal year, the total amount of expenses and charges referred to in paragraph 4 of Article 39 of the French Tax Code totaled €404,116.11 and that the tax borne as a result of these expenses and charges totaled €139,137.11.

First resolution

(Approval of the statutory financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019): The Shareholders' Meeting, acting under the conditions of quorum and majority required for ordinary shareholders' meetings, having reviewed the reports of the Board of Directors and of the Statutory Auditors, approves the statutory financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which include the balance sheet, the income statement and the notes, as presented, and which show earnings amounting to €470,226,878.60, as well as the transactions reflected therein and summarized in these reports.

3rdresolution

ALLOCATION OF EARNINGS AND DIVIDEND

Purpose

Regarding earnings for the 2019 fiscal year, of an amount of

  • 470,226,878.60, and retained earnings of an amount of €2,849,799,918.73 both constituting the distributable earning, you are asked to:
  • set the dividend at €2.10 per share for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, and therefore distribute to the shareholders a dividend of a total amount of €1,440,853,692.60 (subject to the treasury shares); and

The ex-dividend date will be July 14, 2020 and the dividend will be payable on July 16, 2020.

The dividend is defined before any tax and/or social security levy that may apply to the shareholder depending on his/her own situation. Shareholders are invited to contact their usual tax advisor.

DANONENOTICE OF MEETING 2020

Third resolution

(Allocation of earnings for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and setting of the dividend at €2.10 per share): The Shareholders' Meeting, acting under the conditions of quorum and majority required for ordinary shareholders' meetings, having reviewed the reports of the Board of Directors and of the Statutory Auditors:

  • acknowledges that the earnings for fiscal year 2019 amount to €470,226,878.60;
  • acknowledges that retained earnings amount to €2,849,799,918.73; totaling earnings available for allocation of profits of €3,320,026,797.33;
  • decides to allocate the total earnings as follows:
    • to dividend in the amount of €1,440,853,692.60;
    • to retained earnings in the amount of €1,879,173,104.73.

The Shareholders' Meeting therefore decides the payment of a dividend of €2.10 per share.

The aforementioned dividend is defined before any tax and/or social security levy which may apply depending on the shareholder's own situation. When paid to individuals who are tax residents of France, the gross dividend is in principle submitted to a unique withholding

tax at a flat gross rate of 12.8% (Article 200 A of the French Tax Code), or is, as an express and binding option, subject to income tax at a progressive rate, after a 40% deduction (Article 200 A, 2. and 1583.2° of the French Tax Code). This option, which is global and covers all of the incomes of the withholding tax's scope of application, is to be exercised at the date of the submission of the income tax return and at the latest by the date when the filing is due. Furthermore, the dividend is submitted to social security contributions at a rate of 17.2% as well as, for taxpayers whose reference tax income exceeds certain thresholds, to the exceptional contribution on high incomes at a rate of either 3% or 4%, as the case may be, pursuant to Article 223 sexies of the French Tax Code. Shareholders are invited to contact their usual tax adviser.

The distributable dividend for the fiscal year 2019 shall be detached from the share on July 14, 2020 and will be payable on July 16, 2020.

In accordance with the provisions of Article L. 225-210 of the French Commercial Code, the amount of the dividend corresponding to the shares held by the Company on the payment date will be allocated to the "retained earnings" account.

As a reminder, pursuant to Article 243 bisof the French Tax Code, the dividends distributed for the three previous fiscal years were as follows:

Regarding Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER

The Board of Directors proposes to approve the renewal of Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER's term of office as Director for three years.

1. Skills and expertise

Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER has an in-depth knowledge of Asia, recognized skills in the areas of finance, risk management and internal audit, and a particular expertise in governance issues.

She has been a member of Danone's Board of Directors for nearly 6 years, and of the Audit Committee for 5 years, and these governance bodies benefit from her operational experience in Asia, where she lived and held operational management responsibilities for 10 years. Her new position in Asia within Société Générale will enable her to provide the Board with her experience and knowledge of this major geographic region for Danone.

Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER also brings to the work of the Board and the Audit Committee her detailed analysis of risks, both in terms of strategic risks, emerging risks and operational risks, including internal control/internal audit and compliance issues. More broadly, beyond her areas of financial expertise, she is an active contributor at the Board and the Audit Committee, paying particular attention to digital issues, communication and human resources issues.

2. Attendance rate

In 2019, Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER's attendance rate at Board meetings was 100%. Over the duration of her current term of office (up to and including February 25, 2020), her attendance rate at Board and Audit Committee meetings was 100%.

3. Availability

Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER holds no other board positions in listed companies.

4. Independence

Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER was appointed Chief Executive Officer for Société Générale Asia Pacific in January 2020. In this context, the Board of Directors, upon the proposal of the Governance Committee, reviewed the business relations between Danone and Société Générale, which is among the banks used by Danone on a regular basis, notably for treasury management and financing in Europe.

The Board determined that Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER did not have, directly or indirectly, any significant business relationship with Danone.

The analysis of the materiality of the business relationship focused on several criteria:

Regarding Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER

The Board of Directors proposes to approve the renewal of Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER's term of office as Director for three years.

1. Skills and expertise

Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER has been an executive manager at J.P. Morgan for over 15 years. She has recognized expertise in financial matters and in-depth knowledge of the consumer goods markets, that of Danone in particular.

2. Attendance rate

In 2019, Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER's attendance rate at Board meetings was 100%. Over the duration of her current term of office (up to and including February 25, 2020), her attendance rate at Board's meetings was 100%.

3. Availability

Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER holds no other board positions in listed companies.

  • the absence of business relationships in the geographic region that Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER now manages for Société Générale;
  • thepre-existing and historical nature of contractual relationships between Danone and Société Générale;
  • the current nature of transactions undertaken in recent years between the two companies, including the management of bank accounts, participation in bank and bond financing by Danone alongside other banks, the provision of derivative products, the management of monetary funds (excluding in particular M&A advisory);
  • the application of arm's length market conditions to these tran- sactions;
  • the absence of economic dependency or exclusivity between these two companies;
  • the insignificant proportion of sales resulting from the business relationship between Société Générale and Danone.

The Board therefore deemed that Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER continued to satisfy all of the independence criteria of the AFEP-MEDEF Code.

In accordance with the provisions of the Board's rules of procedure, in the event that a subject likely to create a conflict of interest, even a potential conflict of interest, is discussed by the Audit Committee or the Board, Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER shall abstain from attending the discussions and voting on the corresponding deliberations. In addition, she will not participate in any way in the negotiation and implementation of transactions entered into between Danone and Société Générale.

In addition, the Governance Committee and the Board will review each year the situation of Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER with regard to the rules of independence, in particular in terms of significant business relationships, on the basis of the relationships between Danone and Société Générale during the previous fiscal year and will report this assessment in the Universal Registration Document.

Finally, in the event that an agreement entered into between Danone and Société Générale constitutes a related party agreement, such agreement shall be authorized by the Board (without Mrs. Gaëlle OLIVIER attending or voting), prior to the publication of its main terms on Danone's website, and be subject to a vote of the shareholders, by separate resolution, at the following Shareholder's Meeting.

4. Independence

The Board of Directors has reviewed Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER's situation with respect to the AFEP-MEDEF Code rules defining independence criteria for directors.

In this respect, the Board reviewed the business relations between Danone and J.P. Morgan, one of the banks used by Danone on a recurring basis, notably for financing and occasionally for M&A matters. Although Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER does not have any decision -making power on agreements entered into by the two companies and does not receive any compensation linked to these agreements, the Board felt that these business relationships could potentially create a conflict of interest, given the very nature of the business relationship. The Board therefore decided to consider Mrs. Isabelle SEILLIER as a non-independent Director.

RESOLUTION WITHIN THE AUTHORITY OF THE EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING

14thto 15thresolutions

CAPITAL INCREASES RESERVED FOR EMPLOYEES OF FOREIGN COMPANIES

Purpose

You are asked to renew the financial authorization allowing to carry out employee shareholding transactions for the benefit of Danone group employees outside France.

As in 2019, it is therefore proposed that you grant, for an 18-month period, a delegation of authority to the Board of Directors in order to decide on capital increases to the benefit of categories of bene- ficiaries, i.e. employees working within foreign companies of the Danone group or in a situation of international mobility within the group, either directly or viaentities acting on behalf of these em- ployees. As a result, these capital increases would be carried out without shareholders' preferential subscription right.

The ceiling of the nominal amount of ordinary shares issuances pursuant to this authorization would be maintained at €1.7 million, representing approximately 1% of the share capital as of December 31, 2019, to be deducted from the maximum amount of €3.4 million, i.e. approximately 2% of the share capital, set forth in the 17thresolution

Fourteenth resolution

(Delegation of authority to the Board of Directors to increase the share capital to the benefit of categories of beneficiaries made up of employees working within foreign companies of Danone's group or in international mobility, in the framework of employee shareholding plans, without preferential subscription right of the shareholders): The Shareholders' Meeting, acting under the conditions of quorum and majority required for extraordinary shareholders' meetings, having reviewed the Board of Directors' report and the special report of the Statutory Auditors, decides, in accordance with the provisions of Articles L.225-129to L.225-129-6and L.225-138of the French Commercial Code, to grant to the Board of Directors, with the ability tosub-delegatein accordance with the conditions set out by law, the authority to decide to increase the share capital, on one or more occasions, at dates and under conditions the Board of Directors will determine, through the issuance of ordinary shares and/or securities giving access to the share capital in favor of the persons meeting the requirements of the categories (or one of the categories) described below.

approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 2019. In addition, the issuances carried out pursuant to this authorization would be deducted from the maximum amounts of €60 million, i.e. approximately 35% of the share capital, and €17 million, i.e. approximately 10% of the share capital, provided for in the 11thand 12thresolutions approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 2019.

The maximum discount offered to the employees would be 20%, and the proposed price would be calculated on the basis of the average of the listed prices of Danone shares on Euronext Paris prior to the date of the decision setting the opening date for subscription, or, as where appropriate, on the basis of applicable local laws.

As part of its "One Person, One Voice, One Share" program, Danone would like to continue to enable all its employees worldwide to participate in its development. The objectives are to strengthen their motivation and commitment, enhance their sense of belonging to the Company and promote a state of mind of co-owner.

The Shareholders' Meeting decides that any issue of preference shares and securities giving the right to preference shares is expressly excluded.

The Shareholders' Meeting decides to cancel shareholders' preferential subscription right to the shares or other securities of the Company that would be issued pursuant to this resolution and to reserve the right to subscribe to it to any or all of the following categories of beneficiaries:

  1. employees and corporate officers of companies working within entities related to the Company in accordance with the conditions set up in Article L.225-180 of the French Commercial Code and Article L. 3341-1 of the French Labor Code and having their re- gistered office outside France, or in a situation of international mobility within the group; and/or
  2. collective mutual funds ("OPCVM")or other entities governed by French or foreign law, whether or not having legal persona- lity, of employee share ownership invested in the Company's shares, the unit holders or shareholders of which shall consist

DANONENOTICE OF MEETING 2020

27

of persons mentioned in paragraph (i) above or allowing the persons mentioned in the paragraph (i) above to benefit, directly or indirectly, from an employee share ownership or savings plan in the Company's securities; and/or

  1. any financial institution or subsidiary of such institution acting at the request of the Company to set up a plan for the benefit of the persons mentioned in the paragraph (i) above, with a profile or economic advantage comparable to a shareholding or savings plan from which other employees of the group would benefit.

The Shareholders' Meeting acknowledges that this authorization automatically entails the waiver by the shareholders of their preferential subscription right to the ordinary shares of the Company to which the securities that would be issued as a result of this resolution may entitle them immediately and/or in the future, to the benefit of the holders of securities giving access to the Company's share capital issued pursuant to this delegation.

The maximum nominal amount of the Company's capital increase resulting from all issues carried out, immediately or in the future, pursuant to this resolution, would be of €1.7 million, it being specified that the issuance carried out pursuant to this authorization would be deducted from (i) the maximum amount of €3.4 million set forth in the 17thresolution approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 2019 and (ii) the maximum amount set forth in the paragraph (a) of the 11thand 12thresolutions submitted approved by Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 2019.

It is specified that the maximum amount mentioned in the aforementioned paragraph does not take into account the maximum nominal amounts for ordinary shares to be issued by the Company, if necessary, in respect of adjustments made in order to protect the holders' interests of the rights attached to the securities granting access to the share capital of the Company in accordance with the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions or any contractual provisions. To this end and if necessary, the Shareholders' Meeting grant to the Board of Directors the right to increase the share capital accordingly.

The Shareholders' Meeting decides that the price of issuance for the new shares will be set up on the basis of the Company share's average opening list price on Euronext during a period of up to 20 trading sessions preceding the date of the decision setting the opening date for subscription, reduced by a maximum discount of 20%. The Board of Directors may also reduce or cancel the amount of the discount because of legal, tax or regulatory considerations under foreign law applicable to the beneficiaries of the issuance. Alternatively, in the event of an issuance under a Share Incentive Plan (SIP) under English law or a US plan based on Rule 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, the subscription price will be equal to (i)

the share price on the Euronext regulated market in Paris at the beginning of the reference period of this plan, period which may not exceed 12 months, or (ii) at the price recorded after the end of this period within a period set pursuant to the said applicable regulations, or (iii) at the lowest price between the two. This price will be set without a discount compared to the price retained in an SIP and with a maximum discount of 15% in a 423 plan.

The Shareholders' Meeting decides that the Board of Directors may also decide to freely allocate, to the beneficiaries as defined above, shares or other securities giving access to the Company's share capital to be issued or already issued as a contribution, within the applicable statutory or regulatory limits.

The Shareholders' Meeting grants to the Board of Directors full powers, with the ability to sub-delegate in accordance with the conditions set out by law, the authority to implement this resolution, and in particular:

  • to determine the list of beneficiaries, within one or more of the aforementioned categories, or the categories of employees benefiting from each issuance and the number of shares to be subscribed for by each of them;
  • to determine the characteristics of the securities to be issued, in particular the prices of issuance, the dates, terms and conditions of subscription, payment, delivery and date of entitlement to dividends of shares and securities, the period of unavailability and early release, taking into account any applicable local legal constraints, and select the countries retained from those in which the Company has affiliated companies and the said affiliated companies whose employees may participate in the transaction;
  • to decide the maximum number of shares to be issued, within the limits set by this resolution and to acknowledge the final amount of each capital increase and amend theby-laws accordingly;
  • at its sole discretion and if it deems it appropriate, deduct the costs of the capital increases from the amount of the premiums relating to these increases and deduct from this amount the sums necessary to increase the legal reserve toone-tenth of the new capital after each increase; and
  • more generally, complete all formalities useful for the issuance, listing and financial servicing of securities issued as a result of this resolution and take all useful or necessary steps for the proper completion of the issuances.

The delegation of authority is granted to the Board of Directors for an 18-month period at the time of its adoption and supersedes with effect from this day the delegation granted by the Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 2019 in its 18thresolution..

GRANTING OF PERFORMANCE SHARES

Purpose

You are asked to renew the authorization granted to Board of Directors to freely allocate shares subject to performance conditions ("Group performance shares" or "GPS") to employees and corporate officers of the Danone group. As a reminder about 1,600 persons benefit from these allocations every year.

The main characteristics of this new resolution are as follows:

  • an authorization to allocate Group performance shares is again proposed for one year, until December 31, 2020, to enable sharehol- ders to ensure, as in 2019, that the level of requirement level of performance conditions is sufficiently challenging and motivating with regards to Danone's situation;
  • an unchanged dilutive effect:
    • a ceiling of 0.2% of the capital, with a
    • sub-ceilingof 0.03% of the share capital for corporate officers. In 2019, the allocation of shares subject to performance conditions to Mr. Emmanuel FABER, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (sole executive corporate officer), repre- sented a maximum total number of 31,500 GPS, representing approximately 0.005% of Danone's share capital and 5.4% of all performance shares granted by Danone in 2019;
  • an acquisition period of at least 4 years and, if applicable, a retention period decided by the Board of Directors;
  • 100% of the shares granted remain subject to performance conditions;
  • performance conditions over three years, adapted to Danone's current environment, and for which the requirement regarding environmental performance has been reinforced compared to 2019.

28DANONENOTICE OF MEETING 2020

These conditions are:

  • for 50%, an external performance condition relating to the average growth of Danone's consolidated sales on alike-for-like basis over a three-year period (2020, 2021 and 2022), compared to the median of the average growth in sales of a panel of Danone's historical peers consisting of eight international groups in the food and beverage industry. As in 2019, this performance condition is appreciated on the basis of a progressive reachable scale, with:
    • no allocation if the performance of Danone is below the median of the panel ("no payment below the median"),
    • achievement to 75% of the shares subject to this performance condition if Danone's performance is equal to the median of the panel, and
    • beyond, a variable achievement up to 110% if Danone's out- performance reaches 120% of the panel's median;
  • for 30% an internal performance condition relating to the achie- vement of a free cash flow ("FCF") cumulative amount in excess of €6.2 billion over athree-year period, i.e. 2020, 2021 and 2022, as set out below:
    • sum of FCF ≤ to 6.2 billion euros: definitive allocation of 0% of the shares subject to this performance condition;
    • sum of FCF between 6.2 and 6.7 billion euros: definitive allo- cation of 0 to 100% of the shares subject to this performance condition using a linear scale;
    • sum of FCF ≥ to 6.7 billion euros: definitive allocation of 100% of the shares subject to this performance condition;

it being specified that this performance condition takes into account investment plan of around €2 billion to accelerate climate action of Danone's brands and strengthen the growth model, as announced on February 26, 2020;

  • for 20%, an external environmental condition based on the CDP's annual ranking of Danone for Climate Change program, between
    2020 and 2022, according to the following scale:

Then, for those GPS whose achievement of the performance conditions has not been observed, the Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Governance Committee, will assess the degree of achievement of each of the performance conditions based on available information available.

The detailed description of the performance conditions can be found in chapter 6.4 of the 2019 Universal Registration Document on pages 248 to 252.

AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF BY-LAWS TO COMPLY WITH REGULATIONS IN FORCE

AMENDMENT OF ARTICLE 15.III OF THE BY-LAWS RELATING TO THE DIRECTORS REPRESENTING EMPLOYEES

Purpose

You are asked to amend Article 15.III of the Company's by-laws in order to comply with French Law No. 2019-486 of May 22nd, 2019 (so-called "PACTE" Law) which lowered from 12 to 8 Directors the threshold that triggers the obligation to appoint two Directors representing employees.

The procedures for appointing Directors representing employees are defined by the by-laws. Up until now, three employees' representatives attend Board's meetings:

  • a Director representing employees appointed by the Works Council (Comité Économique et Social) of Danone SA,
  • a Director representing employees appointed by the European Works Council of Danone, and
  • a member of the Works Council of Danone SA, who attends Board meetings in an advisory capacity, as a delegate of the Works Council in accordance with Article L.2312-72 of the French Labor Code.

You are asked to amend the by-laws to provide for the appointment of one of the two Directors representing employees by the France's Works Council (Comité Groupe France) (including representatives from all Danone employees in France, including from operational

companies for EDP, Specialized Nutrition and Waters businesses), and not by the Works Council of Danone SA to allow for a broader representativeness of French employees at the Board.

Thus, after amending the by-laws, the three employees' representatives at the Board would be:

  • a Director representing employees appointed by the France's Works Council,
  • a Director representing employees appointed by the European Works Council, and
  • a member of the Works Council of Danone SA who attends Board meetings in an advisory capacity, as a delegate.

It is specified that the Directors representing employees shall be renewed or appointed before the Shareholders' Meeting of June 26, 2020, for 3 years, by the Works Council of Danone SA and by the European Works Council (the terms of office of Directors representing the employees expiring at the Shareholders' Meeting), this modification will only take effect, in practice, at the end of the term of office of the Director representing employees appointed in 2020 by the Works Council of Danone SA.

20thResolution

AMENDMENT OF ARTICLE 1 AND TITLE IV OF THE COMPANY'S BY-LAWS IN ORDER TO ADOPT THE FRENCH "SOCIÉTÉ À MISSION " STATUS

Purpose

You are asked to approve the adoption by the Company of the French "société à mission" status, within the meaning of Article L.210-10 of the French Commercial Code, introduced by French Law No. 2019-486 of May 22nd, 2019 (so-called "PACTE" Law), by amending Article 1 and Title IV of the Company's by-laws.

This status entails the (i) inclusion of a purpose ("raison d'être") in the by-laws, (ii) inclusion of social and environmental objectives, that the company sets as its mission to pursue as part of its activities, in its by-laws, (iii) creation of a mission committee responsible for monitoring the performance of this mission, and (iv) appointment of an independent third party to verify the execution of this mission.

The adoption of the French "société à mission" status is a logical and natural step for Danone, which has had a mission for several years and for which the pursuit of a long-term vision enabling sustained, sustainable, and resource-conscious value creation with and for all its stakeholders is anchored in the company's values.

1. Purpose

Shareholders are asked to approve the addition to Article 1 of the by-laws of the following purpose: "to bring health through food to as many people as possible". This purpose is embedded in the "One Planet. One Health" framework of action of Danone, which reflects its strong belief that people's health and the planet's preservation are interconnected and should be at the core of a food company's strategy. This framework of action builds on decades of responsible business stewardship to serve a dual economic and social project.

2. Social, societal and environmental objectives

In connection with its purpose, the Company defined strategic goals, aligned with the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, embedding the business, brand and trust models of the Company to drive long-term sustainable value creation.

Among these strategic goals, the shareholders are asked to include in Article 1 of the by-laws ("Type of Company"), the social, societal and environmental objectives that the Company sets as its mission to pursue as part of its activities (the "Mission"), pursuant to paragraph 2° of Article L. 210-10 of the French Commercial Code, integrated into its model of profitable and sustainable growth, which are the following:

  • Impact people's health locally, with a portfolio of healthier pro- ducts, with brands encouraging better nutritional choices and by promoting better dietary habits;
  • Preserve and renew the planet's resources, by supporting rege- nerative agriculture, protecting the water cycle and strengthening the circular economy of packaging, across its entire ecosystem, in order to contribute to the fight against climate change;
  • Entrust Danone's people to create new futures: building on a unique social innovation heritage, give each employee the opportunity to impact the decisions of the Company, both locally and globally;
  • Foster inclusive growth, by ensuring equal opportunities within the Company, supporting the most vulnerable partners in its ecosystem and developing everyday products accessible to as many people as possible.

3. Monitoring of the Mission

In accordance with paragraph 3° of Article L. 210-10 of the French Commercial Code, it is proposed to provide for the creation of a Mission Committee as a new Article 22 of the by-laws, which will be separate from the corporate bodies, and be responsible for monitoring the implementation of these social, societal and environmental objectives.

  • in the exclusive event that a change in control results in the forced termination of his term of office as a corporate officer, the person concerned may, provided he has not committed serious misconduct or gross negligence, request the termination of his employment contract in the form of termination within three months from the date of the termination of his term of office as a corporate officer (i.e. the date on which his employment contract is resumed).

In the event of the amendment of the performance conditions applicable to the indemnity due in certain instances of the termination of the term of office of a corporate officer, the performance conditions applicable to the portion of the Indemnity for Termination of the Employment Contract corresponding to the seniority acquired in respect of the term of office will be automatically amended.

Your board of directors proposes, on the basis of its report, that you authorize it, for an 18-month length, to decide an issuance, and proposes that you waive your preferential subscription right to the

securities to be issued. If applicable, the Board will determine the final terms and conditions of this operation.

We have performed the due diligence procedures that we deemed necessary in accordance with the professional guidance issued by the French Institute of statutory auditors (Compagnie nationale des commissaires aux comptes) for this type of assignment. These procedures consisted in verifying the information provided in the board of directors' report in respect of this transaction and the terms and conditions governing the determination of the issue price of equity securities to be issued.

Subject to a subsequent review of the terms and conditions of the issuance that may be decided, we have no observation to make on the terms and conditions governing the determination of the issue price of equity securities to be issued and that are provided in the board of directors' report.

As the final terms and conditions under which the issuances will be carried out have not yet been set, we do not express an opinion on them nor, consequently, on the proposed cancellation of preferential subscription right.

In accordance with Article R. 225-116 of the French Commercial Code, we will issue an additional report, as necessary, when your board of directors uses this delegation, in the event of issuance of shares or securities that are equity securities giving access to other equity securities, and in the event of issuance of securities giving access to equity securities to be issued.
