Ladies and Gentlemen:

Inventiva S.A., a société anonyme organized under the laws of France and registered with the Register of Commerce and Companies (Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés) of Dijon under number 537 530 255 (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the Underwriters (as defined below), an aggregate of (i) [•] ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of the Company (the “Firm Shares”) and (ii) [•] Ordinary Shares to be delivered in the form of American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”), each representing one Ordinary Share (the “Firm ADSs” and, together with the Firm Shares, the “Firm Securities”), and, at the option of the Underwriters, up to (iii) [•] additional Ordinary Shares (the “Optional Shares”) and (iv) [•] additional Ordinary Shares to be delivered in the form of ADSs (the “Optional ADSs” and, together with the Optional Shares, the “Optional Securities”) if and to the extent that the Representatives (as defined below) shall have determined to exercise, on behalf of the Underwriters, the right to purchase such Optional Securities granted to the Underwriters in Section 2 hereof. The Firm

Securities and the Optional Securities are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Offered Securities.” The Firm ADSs and the Optional ADSs are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Offered ADSs,” and the Firm Shares and the Optional Shares are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Offered Shares.” Unless the context otherwise requires, each reference to the Firm Securities, the Optional Securities or the Offered Securities herein also includes the Ordinary Shares underlying the ADSs (the “Underlying Shares”). It is understood that the obligations of the Underwriters contained in this Agreement shall not constitute a performance guarantee (garantie de bonne fin) within the meaning of Article L. 225-145 of the French Commercial Code. The term “Representatives” or “you” as used herein shall mean, as applicable, with respect to the offering and sale of the Offered ADSs in the United States (the “U.S. Offering”) (including any correspondence with the Commission (as defined below) in connection with the Registration Statement (as defined below)), Jefferies LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Guggenheim Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named in the first table in Schedule I hereto (the “U.S. Dollar Underwriters”) and, with respect to the offering and sale of the Offered Shares in Europe (the “European Offering”), Jefferies International Ltd and Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited, as representatives of the several underwriters named in the second table in Schedule I hereto (the “Euro Underwriters” and, together with the U.S. Dollar Underwriters, the “Underwriters”).

The ADSs purchased by the Underwriters hereunder shall be issued pursuant to a deposit agreement to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2) (the “Deposit Agreement”) by and among the Company, The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary (the “Depositary”) and all holders and beneficial owners of the ADSs issued thereunder. Each Offered ADS will initially represent the right to receive one Ordinary Share deposited pursuant to the Deposit Agreement.

The Offered Securities will be issued by way of a capital increase without preferential rights for existing shareholders under the provisions of Article L. 225-136 of the French Commercial Code, pursuant to the 15th and 19th resolutions of the Company’s combined general shareholders’ meeting held on May 28, 2020.

The Offered Shares offered in the European Offering will be offered in the context of an offering exclusively addressed to “qualified investors” within the meaning of article 2(e) of Regulation (EU) No. 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 (the “Prospectus Regulation”) in France and other member states of the European Union.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the several Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the Offered Securities, as follows:

1. Registration Statement and French Listing Prospectus

(a) Registration Statement. The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), a registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-239312), including a prospectus, relating to the Offered Securities. Such registration statement, as amended at the time it became effective, including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to Rule 430A, 430B or 430C under the Securities Act to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness (“Rule 430 Information”), is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement”; and as used herein, the term “Preliminary Prospectus” means each prospectus included in such registration statement (and any amendments thereto) before effectiveness, any prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(a) under the Securities Act and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the time of its effectiveness that omits Rule 430 Information, and the term “Prospectus” means the prospectus in the form first used (or made available upon request of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) in connection with confirmation of sales of the Offered

Securities. If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

At or prior to the Applicable Time (as defined below), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively with the pricing information set forth on Annex A, the “Pricing Disclosure Package”): a Preliminary Prospectus dated July 6, 2020 and each “free-writing prospectus” (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 under the Securities Act) listed on Annex A hereto.

“Applicable Time” means [•] [AM/PM] New York City time, on July [•], 2020.

(b) French Listing Prospectus. The Company, for the purpose of listing the Firm Shares and the related Underlying Shares and, as the case may be, the Optional Shares and the related Underlying Shares, on the regulated market of Euronext Paris (“Euronext”), has prepared and filed with the French Financial Markets Authority (Autorité des Marchés Financiers) (the “AMF”), in accordance with French legal and regulatory requirements, including the general regulations and instructions of the AMF, a French-language listing prospectus consisting of (i) the universal registration document (Document d’Enregistrement Universel) filed with the AMF on June 19, 2020, 2020 without prior authorization of the AMF (the “Universal Registration Document”), (ii) a securities note (Note d’Opération) (the “Note d’Opération”) and (iii) a summary of such listing prospectus (included in the Note d’Opération), including the documents incorporated by reference therein (collectively, the “French Listing Prospectus”), which is expected to receive the approval of the AMF on or about July [•], 2020, and in any event before July [•], 2020. All references in this Agreement to the French Listing Prospectus shall be deemed to refer collectively to (i) the Universal Registration Document when such reference is made as of a date or for a period at which or during which the Note d’Opération has not yet been approved by the AMF, and (ii) after such approval has been received, to the Universal Registration Document, the Note d’Opération and the summary of the French Listing Prospectus (included in the Note d’Opération), taken together.

2. Purchase of the Offered Securities.

(a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, (i) the Company hereby agrees to sell to the several U.S. Dollar Underwriters, and each of the U.S. Dollar Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company with a view to resale to investors, the respective number of Firm ADSs set forth in the first table in Schedule I hereto opposite its name, and (ii) the Company hereby agrees to sell to the several Euro Underwriters, and each of the Euro Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company with a view to resale to investors, the respective number of Firm Shares set forth in the second table in Schedule I hereto opposite its name. The Firm Shares (and, as the case may be, the Optional Shares) and the Firm ADSs (and, as the case may be, the Optional ADSs) are being offered as part of a single capital increase at an identical price of $[•] per ADS (the “ADS Purchase Price”) corresponding to €[•] per Ordinary Share (the “Ordinary Share Purchase Price” and, together with the ADS Purchase Price, the “Offering Price”) based upon the exchange rate as in effect on the date hereof, as agreed between the Company and the Representatives, and exclusive of the commissions set forth herein.

(b) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, (i) the Company agrees to sell to the U.S. Dollar Underwriters the Optional ADSs, and the U.S. Dollar Underwriters shall have the option to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to [•] Optional ADSs at the ADS Purchase Price,

and (ii) the Company agrees to sell to the Euro Underwriters the Optional Shares, and the Euro Underwriters shall have the option to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to [•] Optional Shares at the Ordinary Share Purchase Price. The Representatives may exercise the option to purchase Optional Securities at any time in whole or in part, on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus (such date to correspond with the closing of the subscription period under article R.225-118 of the French Commercial Code) (the “Greenshoe Period”), by written notice from the Representatives to the Company. Any such exercise notice shall specify the number and type of Optional Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters and the date on which such securities are to be purchased. The purchase date must be at least two business days after the written notice is given and may not be earlier than the Closing Date for the Firm Securities nor later than ten business days after the date of such notice. On the day, if any, that Optional Securities are to be purchased (the “Additional Closing Date”), each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional ADSs or Optional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional ADSs or Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, as you may determine), as the case may be, that bears the same proportion to the total number of Firm ADSs or Firm Shares, as the case may be, set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm ADSs or Firm Shares (except that such proportion acquired by Jefferies LLC shall be calculated on the basis of the aggregate amount of Firm Securities acquired by Jefferies LLC and Jefferies International Ltd together (i.e., up to [•] Optional ADSs) and such proportion acquired by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated shall be calculated on the basis of the aggregate amount of Firm Securities acquired by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited together (i.e., up to [•] Optional ADSs)). The Representatives may elect that all or a portion of the Optional Shares be delivered in the form of ADSs or may elect that all or a portion of the Optional ADSs be delivered as Ordinary Shares, and payment therefor shall be made in U.S. Dollars or Euros, as the case may be.

The obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement shall not constitute a firm underwriting (garantie de bonne fin) within the meaning of Article L.225-145 of the French Commercial Code.

(c) The Company understands that the Underwriters intend to make an offering in the United States of the respective portions of the Offered Securities sold to them as contemplated hereby and in the Prospectus as soon after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement as is advisable, and initially to offer the Offered ADSs on the terms set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell Offered Securities to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter.

(d) Payment of the Ordinary Share Purchase Price and the ADS Purchase Price, as applicable, for the Firm Shares and the Firm ADSs shall be made to the Company (i) in Euros with respect to the Firm Shares by wire transfer or credit of immediately available funds of an amount equal to the product of [•] Firm Shares sold in the European Offering by the Ordinary Share Purchase Price to a blocked account in the Company’s name at Société Générale (the “Euro Blocked Account”) and (ii) in United States dollars with respect to the Firm ADSs by wire transfer or credit of immediately available funds of an amount equal to the product of the [•] Firm ADSs sold in the U.S. Offering by the ADS Purchase Price to a blocked account in the Company’s name at Société Générale Securities Services, as transfer agent and registrar of the Company (the “Registrar”) (the “Dollar Blocked Account” and, together with the Euro Blocked Account, the “Blocked Accounts”), each at 10:00 a.m. Central European Time, on [•], 2020, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than [•], 2020, as shall be designated in writing by you.

The Company irrevocably agrees to such transfer. Such payment shall be made to accounts specified by Jefferies LLC, on behalf of the Underwriters, immediately following the issuance of the Certificate referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.

(g) In case of exercise of the option to purchase Optional Securities by the Representatives, payment for any Optional ADSs shall be made to the Company in United States dollars to the Dollar Blocked Account and payment for any Optional Shares shall be made in Euros to the Euro Blocked Account in the same manner as set forth in Section 2(d), on the date specified in the corresponding notice described in Section 2(b), or at such other time on the same or on such other date, in any event not later than [•], 2020 as shall be designated in writing by you. On the Additional Closing Date, subject to receipt of payment for the Optional Securities in the Blocked Accounts, the Registrar will issue, or cause to be issued, the certificat du dépositaire des fonds (the “Additional Certificate”, together with the Certificate, the “Certificates”), required by article L. 225-146 of the French Commercial Code. Issuance and delivery of the Optional ADSs or the Optional Shares, as the case may be, and payment to the Underwriters of their compensation in respect thereof, shall occur in the same manner as set forth in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2 for the Firm ADSs or the Firm Shares, as the case may be.

(h) The certificates evidencing the Offered ADSs shall be registered in such names and in such denominations as the Representatives shall request in writing not later than one full business day prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be. The Firm Securities and Optional Securities shall be delivered to you on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the

case may be, for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters, with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the transfer of the Offered Securities to the Underwriters duly paid by the Company.

(i) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Representatives and the other Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of the Offered Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representatives nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Representatives nor the other Underwriters shall have any responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto.

or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and the F-6 Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the F-6 Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), the French Listing Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, any road show or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter through the Representatives consists of the following information in the “Underwriting” section of the Prospectus furnished by or on behalf each Underwriter: “The underwriters have advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M of the Securities Act of 1933, they may also engage in other activities that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the ordinary shares and ADSs, including the imposition of penalty bids,” “any such dealers may resell ordinary shares and ADSs to certain other brokers or dealers at a discount of up to €[·] per ordinary share and $[·] per ADS from the offering price” and “A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the web sites maintained by one or more underwriters, or selling group members, if any, participating in the offering. The underwriters may agree to allocate a number of ordinary shares and ADSs to underwriters and selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the representatives to underwriters and selling group members that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations.”

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually

agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by the Representatives and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement, or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Offered Securities and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Offered Securities. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to paragraph (d) above were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable and documented legal or other reasonable and documented expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e), in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Offered Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 paragraphs (a) through (e) are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

8. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above.

9. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Optional Securities, prior to the Additional Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market, and/or Euronext; (ii) trading of the Ordinary Shares of the Company shall have been suspended on Euronext; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities or French authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of any Offered Securities on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

10. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Offered Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Offered Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Offered Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Offered Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of

counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement, the F-6 Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the French Listing Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the F-6 Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the French Listing Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10 purchases Offered Securities that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Offered Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Offered Securities that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate number of Offered Securities to be purchased on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of Offered Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the number of Offered Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date) of the Offered Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Offered Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of Offered Securities that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate amount of Offered Securities to be purchased on such date, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement or, with respect to any Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase Offered Securities on the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 11 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 7 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

11. Payment of Expenses.

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company will pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Offered Securities (including any stock or other transfer taxes and any stamp or other duties payable thereupon); (ii) all fees and expenses of the registrar of the Ordinary Shares, (iii) all fees and expenses of the Depositary related to the Offered Securities, (iv) the costs incident to the preparation, printing and filing under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus, the F-6 Registration Statement, and the French Listing Prospectus (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent accountants; (v) the reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Offered Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably designate

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Offered Securities for delivery to the Underwriters or (iii) the Underwriters decline to purchase the Offered Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel) incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby; provided that, in the event any such termination is effected after the Closing Date but prior to any settlement date for the Optional Securities, the Company will only reimburse the Underwriters for all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Underwriters after the Closing Date in connection with the proposed purchase of such Optional Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the Company will not pay or reimburse any costs, fees or expenses incurred by any Underwriter that defaults on its obligation to purchase Offered Securities hereunder.

12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Offered Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

13. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters or the directors, officers, controlling persons or affiliates referred to in Section 7 hereof.

Exhibit A

EGC — Testing the waters authorization (to be delivered by the issuer to the Representatives in email or letter form)

In reliance on Section 5(d) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), Inventiva S.A. (the “Issuer”) hereby authorizes Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies U.S.”), Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel U.S.”), Guggenheim Securities, LLC, Jefferies International Ltd (“Jefferies U.K.”) and Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited (“Stifel U.K.”) and their affiliates and their respective employees, to engage on behalf of the Issuer in oral and written communications with potential investors that are “qualified institutional buyers”, as defined in Rule 144A under the Act, or institutions that are “accredited investors”, as defined in Regulation D under the Act, to determine whether such investors might have an interest in the Issuer’s contemplated initial public offering (“Testing-the-Waters Communications”). A “Written Testing-the Waters Communication” means any Testing-the-Waters Communication that is a written communication within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Act.

The Issuer represents that it is an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Act (“Emerging Growth Company”) and agrees to promptly notify Jefferies U.S., Stifel U.S., Guggenheim, Jefferies U.K. and Stifel U.K. in writing if the Issuer hereafter ceases to be an Emerging Growth Company while this authorization is in effect. If at any time following the distribution of any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication there occurs an event or development as a result of which such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Issuer will promptly notify Jefferies U.S., Stifel U.S., Guggenheim, Jefferies U.K. and Stifel U.K. and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication to eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission.

Nothing in this authorization is intended to limit or otherwise affect the ability of Jefferies U.S., Stifel U.S., Guggenheim, Jefferies U.K. and Stifel U.K. and their affiliates and their respective employees, to engage in communications in which they could otherwise lawfully engage in the absence of this authorization, including, without limitation, any written communication containing only one or more of the statements specified under Rule 134(a) under the Act. This authorization shall remain in effect until the Issuer has provided to Jefferies U.S., Stifel U.S., Guggenheim, Jefferies U.K. and Stifel U.K. a written notice revoking this authorization. All notices as described herein shall be sent by email to the attention of [·] at [·@jefferies.com], with copies to [·], [·] at [·@stifel.com], with copies to [•], [•] at [•@guggeinheimpartners.com], with copies to [·], [·] at [·@jefferies.com] and [·] at [·@stifel.com], with copies to [·].

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that Jefferies LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, Guggenheim Securities, LLC and Stifel Nicolaus Europe Limited (collectively, the “Representatives”) propose to enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Inventiva S.A., a société anonyme incorporated under the laws of France (the “Company”), providing for (1) a public offering in the United States (the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters, including the Representatives (the “Underwriters”), of ordinary shares, par value €0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) to be delivered in the form of American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”) and (2) a potential offering outside the United States by the Underwriters of Ordinary Shares in a private placement (the “Private Placement” and, together with the Public Offering, the “Offering”).

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase and make the Offering of the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters, the undersigned will not, during the period beginning on the date of this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) and ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Offering (the “Prospectus”) (such period, the “Restricted Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares, including in the form of ADSs, of the Company (collectively, the “Equity Securities”) or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Equity Securities (including without limitation, Equity Securities, or such other securities which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant), or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Equity Securities or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Equity Securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Equity Securities or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Equity Securities, in each case other than

(A) the Securities to be sold by the undersigned pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement;

(B) transfers or dispositions of Equity Securities acquired in open market transactions following the Offering; provided, however, that no filing or notification under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (or the equivalent thereof in any non-U.S. jurisdiction) will be required or any other public announcement or filing will be voluntarily made during the Restricted Period in connection with such transfers or dispositions under this clause (B);

(C) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities as a bona fide gift or gifts or by will, testamentary document or intestate succession;

(D) distributions of shares of any Equity Securities to partners, members, trust beneficiaries or shareholders of the undersigned;

(E) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned;

(F) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities solely by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order;

(G) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities in connection with a divorce settlement;

(H) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities to any direct or indirect affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the undersigned or any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned or any investment fund or other entity that controls the undersigned, if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity;

(I) transfer of shares of any Equity Securities to the Company in connection with the repurchase of Equity Securities in connection with the termination of the undersigned’s employment with the

Company pursuant to contractual agreements with the Company as in effect as of the date of the Prospectus;

(J) transfers of shares of any Equity Securities pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Company’s securities involving a change of control of the Company (including, without limitation, the entering into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of Equity Securities or other such securities in connection with such transaction, or vote any Equity Securities or other such securities in favor of any such transaction) approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, such securities held by the undersigned shall remain subject to the provisions of this Letter Agreement;

(K) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Equity Securities, provided that (a) such plan does not provide for the transfer of shares of Equity Securities during the Restricted Period and (b) the entry into such plan is not publicly disclosed, including, without limitation, in any filings or notifications under the Exchange Act (or equivalent thereof in non U.S. jurisdictions) during the Restricted Period; and

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters agree that, at least three business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of shares of Equity Securities, the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver, and (ii) the Company has agreed in the Underwriting Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press release.
