4REASONS AND PURPOSE OF THE MERGER
4.1FCA and PSA announced on December 18, 2019 their intention to build a new world leader in the automotive sector that would have the leadership, resources and scale to be at the forefront of a new era of sustainable mobility.
4.2The Merging Companies have the following reasons to merge:
(a)the Merger will create an industry leader with the management, capabilities, resources and scale to successfully capitalize on the opportunities presented by the new era in sustainable mobility. Following the Merger, the Combined Group is expected to be the fourth largest global automotive OEM by volume based on 2019 results. The Combined Group will have a balanced and profitable global presence with a highly complementary and iconic brand portfolio;
(b)the Combined Group will be able to offer an expanded range of models and brands as well as services to better meet customers’ changing needs, with a portfolio of vehicles that will cover all key vehicle segments, from luxury, premium, and mainstream passenger cars to SUVs, trucks and light commercial vehicles;



(c)the Merger will add scale and substantial geographic balance in addition to product diversity, as well as accelerating PSA’s entry into significant markets such as North America. FCA’s strength in North America and Latin America and PSA’s solid position in Europe will result in a much greater geographic balance for the Combined Group compared to each of FCA and PSA, with approximately 46 percent of revenues derived from Europe, Middle East and Africa and Eurasia and approximately 44 percent from North America, based on combined 2019 revenues, excluding Faurecia S.E. The Merger will also create opportunities for the Combined Group to reshape the strategy in other geographic regions, including China;
(d)with an already strong global R&D footprint, comprised of 51 centers and approximately 33,000 dedicated employees in the aggregate as of December 31, 2019, excluding Faurecia S.E., the Combined Group will have a robust platform to foster innovation and further drive development of transformational capabilities in new energy vehicles, sustainable mobility, autonomous driving and connectivity, allowing it to effectively compete with other automakers in these emerging trends in the automotive industry. The Combined Group will be able to leverage on the best among a broad set of platforms, powertrains and vehicles and to converge new vehicle launches on the most efficient technology. Compared to the Merging Companies separately, the Combined Group will have the capacity to accelerate the deployment of electrification technologies and to improve the ability to identify CO2 abating technologies preferred by customers. The Combined Group would be able to deploy these technologies across its broad range of brands in a shorter timeframe and react more quickly to changes in regulation and customer preferences;
(e)the Merging Companies expect synergies to be achieved in the following four areas: (i) technology, platforms and products: the sharing and convergence of PSA’s and FCA’s respective platforms, products and powertrains along with the optimization of R&D investments and manufacturing processes is expected to create significant efficiencies, in particular, as investments will be amortized over the combined production of the Merging Companies; (ii) purchasing: procurement savings are expected to result from leveraging the Combined Group’s enlarged scale, leading to lower product costs and broader access to new suppliers (in particular in respect to electric or high tech components), as well as from the harmonization of platforms; (iii) selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A): savings are expected from the integration of functions such as sales and marketing, and the optimization of costs in regions where both parties have a well-established presence (i.e., EMEA and LATAM); and (iv) all other functions: synergies are expected from the optimization of other functions, including logistics, where savings are expected from the optimization of logistics for new cars and the effect of the procurement volume increase on FCA’s and PSA’s combined expenditures, as well as supply chain, quality and after-market operations. The annual industrial synergies are expected to exceed EUR 5 billion, with approximately 80 percent of synergies to be achieved after four years from the Closing. Approximately 75 percent of synergies are expected to arise from technology, platform and product convergences and procurement savings, approximately 7 percent from SG&A, and the remaining synergies are expected from all other functions. The annual run-rate synergies are expected to exceed the costs necessary to achieve such synergies within the first year following the Closing, and the total one-time cost to achieve the synergies is estimated at EUR 4 billion; and
(f)the transaction will create a more stable and resilient group, significantly improving its ability to withstand economic downturns, which, in the automotive industry, are typically exacerbated by high cyclicality and low margins. The Merging Companies expect that the more robust combined balance sheet and financial flexibility resulting from the Combination, together with the benefit of



the synergies and the improved business balance across geographies, will enhance the resilience of the Combined Group across market cycles.

6.TERMS OF ISSUE AND ALLOTMENT OF SHARES, CANCELLATION OF SHARES, FRACTIONAL ENTITLEMENTS AND MEASURES IN CONNECTION WITH THE SHAREHOLDING IN PSA
6.1At the Effective Time:
(a)FCA shall issue and allot for each issued and outstanding PSA Ordinary Share (excluding the Excluded PSA Shares), 1.742 FCA Common Shares (such ratio of FCA Common Shares to PSA Ordinary Shares, the "Exchange Ratio"); and
(b)all PSA Ordinary Shares shall be cancelled by operation of Law,
provided that:
(i)the FCA Common Shares issued as part of the Merger and represented by the book-entry positions referred to under (ii) below, shall be issued and allotted to Cede & Co, as nominee for DTC, for inclusion in the centralized depositary and clearing systems of DTC and Euroclear France, and ultimately, directly or indirectly, on behalf and for the benefit of the former holders of PSA Ordinary Shares;
(ii)each book-entry position previously representing PSA Ordinary Shares (other than the Excluded PSA Shares, if any), which includes all PSA Ordinary Shares (other than Excluded PSA Shares, if any) held in:
(A)pure registered form (nominatif pur);
(B)administered registered form (nominatif administré); and
(C)bearer form (au porteur),
shall following the implementation of the Merger be exchanged for book-entry positions representing FCA Common Shares issued and allotted in accordance with the Exchange Ratio, it being specified that:
(A)the book-entry positions representing PSA Ordinary Shares held in pure registered form (nominatif pur) shall be exchanged for book-entry positions representing FCA Common Shares in pure registered form (nominatif pur);
(B)the book-entry positions representing PSA Ordinary Shares held in administered registered form (nominatif administré) shall be exchanged for book-entry positions representing FCA Common Shares in administered registered form (nominatif administré);
(C)at no time shall there be any conversion of book-entry positions representing PSA Ordinary Shares held (i) in pure registered form (nominatif pur) or (ii) in administered registered form (nominatif administré) into book-entry positions in bearer form (au porteur); and
(D)the book-entry positions representing FCA Common Shares in pure registered form (nominatif pur) shall be recorded by Société Générale Securities Services within Euroclear France; and
(iii)each PSA Ordinary Share held in treasury by PSA, each PSA Ordinary Share held by FCA and any other PSA Ordinary Shares referred to by Article L. 236-3(II) of the FCC



(together, the "Excluded PSA Shares"), if any, shall be cancelled by operation of Law in accordance with Article 2:325(4) DCC and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor,
provided further that no fractional FCA Common Shares shall be issued and allotted and any fractional entitlements in connection with the Merger will be settled as follows:
(i)with respect to fractional entitlements of the former holders of PSA Ordinary Shares held in:
(A)administered registered form (nominatif administré); or
(B)bearer form (au porteur),
each relevant authorized intermediary in the centralized depositary and clearing systems of Euroclear France shall (i) aggregate such fractional entitlements of such holders, (ii) sell the corresponding FCA Common Shares on behalf of such holders in the market for cash and subsequently (iii) distribute the net cash proceeds to such holders proportionate to each such holder’s fractional entitlements; and
(ii)with respect to fractional entitlements of former holders of PSA Ordinary Shares held in pure registered form (nominatif pur), Société Générale Securities Services shall (i) aggregate such fractional entitlements of such holders, (ii) sell the corresponding FCA Common Shares on behalf of such holders in the market for cash and subsequently (iii) distribute the net cash proceeds to such holders proportionate to each such holder’s fractional entitlements.
Without prejudice to the foregoing, each holder of PSA Ordinary Shares that benefits from a fractional entitlement to a FCA Common Share may waive any cash consideration in respect thereto.
It is noted that, in the event where the number of FCA Common Shares to be issued upon the Merger calculated in accordance with Clause 6.1(a) would not be a rounded number, the total number of issued and allotted FCA Common Shares would be rounded down to the nearest full number and any fractional entitlement would be paid in cash, such cash amount to be calculated based on the stock market quotation upon the closing of the market of the FCA Common Shares on the last trading day before the Closing Date.
The total amount of cash payments that will be made by FCA pursuant to this Section 6.1, will not exceed 10% of the aggregate nominal value of the FCA Common Shares that will be issued and allotted pursuant to the Merger.
6.2Following implementation of the Merger, any holder of FCA Common Shares registered in the name of Cede & Co, as nominee for DTC, and included in the centralized depositary and clearing systems of DTC and Euroclear France is entitled to request, through its intermediary for such FCA Common Shares, to be registered in its own name in FCA's shareholders’ register, provided that such FCA Common Shares



shall no longer be included in the centralized depositary and clearing systems of DTC and Euroclear France and may no longer be traded on Euronext Paris.
6.3No FCA Common Shares will be cancelled in accordance with Article 2:325(3) DCC.
6.4Neither FCA nor PSA has shares without voting rights or shares without dividend rights (it being noted that PSA is not entitled to vote nor to receive any dividend with respect to the PSA Ordinary Shares it holds in treasury), and therefore Article 2:326 paragraphs (d) through (f) DCC do not apply.
7THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS USED FOR THE DETERMINATION OF THE MERGER CONDITIONS AND INFORMATION ON THE VALUATION OF THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES TO BE TRANSFERRED
7.1The terms and conditions of the Merger have been based on such factors as further described in the Reports of the Boards (see Clause 25). To the extent accounts, amongst other factors, were used to establish the terms and conditions of the Merger, such accounts were the following:
(a)for PSA, the individual statutory accounts prepared under French generally accepted accounting principles ("French GAAP") as at December 31, 2019 as set out in Schedule 3 (the "2019 PSA Statutory Accounts") and the consolidated accounts prepared in accordance with IFRS as at June 30, 2020 as set out in Schedule 4;
(b)for FCA, the consolidated accounts as at December 31, 2019 as set out in Schedule 5 and the interim consolidated accounts as at June 30, 2020 as set out in Schedule 6, each prepared in accordance with IFRS.
7.2For the purposes of FCA’s statutory accounts, prepared for Dutch accounting purposes (the “Dutch Statutory Accounts”) the Merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria applied in FCA’s consolidated accounts, i.e. in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) with PSA being the accounting acquirer.
7.3For the purposes of the Dutch Statutory Accounts:
(a)FCA shall record as of the Retroactive Effective Date the acquired PSA’s assets and liabilities at their historical carrying values in the PSA statutory accounts as at December 31, 2020, prepared in accordance with Part 9 of Book 2 DCC with application of IFRS accounting principles ("Combination 3") and approved by the FCA Board of Directors after the Effective Time; and
(b)FCA’s assets and liabilities shall be recorded, at the Effective Time, at their respective fair values as applied under Combination 3.
8FINANCIAL INFORMATION
8.1In respect of the Dutch Statutory Accounts, the financial information of PSA will be accounted for in the Dutch Statutory Accounts as from the Retroactive Effective Date, with FCA’s assets and liabilities being



recorded only as from the Effective Time, in accordance with the reverse acquisition merger treatment described in Clauses 7.2 and 7.3 above.
8.2Any obligations in respect of the preparation and approval of the annual accounts of PSA as from the Effective Time will rest upon FCA by operation of Law.
8.3For French tax purposes and unless requested otherwise by the French tax authorities, the FCA French PE will prepare financial information according to French GAAP (the “FCA French PE Accounts”). In this respect, all of the assets and liabilities of PSA will be registered in the FCA French PE Accounts as from the Retroactive Effective Date based on the net book value ascribed to such assets and liabilities in the 2020 PSA Statutory Accounts at the Retroactive Effective Date. As provided under Clause 2.3, all of the profits and losses derived from the transactions realized by PSA during the period starting as from the Retroactive Effective Date will be registered in the FCA French PE Accounts.

9DESIGNATION AND VALUE OF THE TRANSFERRED ASSETS AND ASSUMED LIABILITIES
9.1Designation of the transferred assets and liabilities
(a)At the Effective Time, all of the assets and liabilities of PSA (without limitation) shall be legally transferred to FCA and allocated to the FCA French PE.
(b)The description of the assets and liabilities to be legally transferred to FCA as a result of the Merger is included in this Merger Proposal for information purposes only and based solely on the PSA accounts. This description is not exhaustive as the Merger will result in a transfer by universal succession of title to all the assets and liabilities of PSA to FCA as of the Effective Time.
(c)The transferred assets and assumed liabilities comprise, without limitation, all tangible and non-tangible assets and liabilities, including contractual relationships and legal interests of any kind, receivables and liabilities, and future and contingent receivables and liabilities the legal basis for which already exists, irrespective of whether they are required to be recognized in the financial accounts or eligible for recognition or whether they are actually recognized or not, as at the Effective Time.
(d)The assets and liabilities to which reference is made in this Clause 9 reflect the assets and liabilities of PSA as of June 30, 2020. The parties are aware that, between June 30, 2020 and the Effective Time, the information contained in this Clause 9 may become wrong or incomplete as certain assets or liabilities may be transferred, acquired, settled, or the like. For the avoidance of doubt, without payment of additional consideration, PSA will also transfer to FCA such assets and liabilities which were added to or arose until the Effective Time, and, similarly, PSA will not transfer to FCA any assets or liabilities that no longer exist as of the Effective Time.
9.2Legally transferred assets
(a)The assets of PSA will be legally transferred to FCA at the Effective Time and will be recorded as of the Retroactive Effective Date in the Dutch Statutory Accounts as provided for under Clause 7.3(a).
(b)The total definitive value of the transferred assets will be determined on the basis of the PSA statutory accounts as at December 31, 2020 prepared in accordance with Combination 3.



(c)On the basis of the Provisional Accounts, the provisional book value of the transferred assets of PSA amounts to EUR 24,826 million:

9.3Legally transferred liabilities
(a)The liabilities of PSA will be legally transferred to FCA at the Effective Time and will be recorded as of the Retroactive Effective Date in the Dutch Statutory Accounts as provided for under Clause 7.3(a).
(b)The total definitive value of the transferred liabilities will be determined on the basis of the PSA statutory accounts as at December 31, 2020 prepared in accordance with Combination 3.

TOTAL LIABILITIES5,241.67

(d)For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions in this Merger Proposal pursuant to which the liabilities of PSA shall be borne by FCA shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgement of debt in favour of any creditors who shall continue to be required to prove their rights and to justify their entitlements and the relevant amounts.
For the avoidance of doubt, should any liabilities (or any over or under provisioning) not be mentioned in this Merger Proposal as a result of any error or omission, those liabilities shall nonetheless be deemed to be the property of FCA and shall be rightfully transferred to FCA without adjustment of the Exchange Ratio.
9.4Net asset value of the assets and liabilities transferred by PSA to FCA
(a)The value of the net asset of PSA legally transferred to FCA shall be equal to the difference between the definitive value of the transferred assets referred to in Clause 9.2(b) and the definitive value of the transferred liabilities referred to in Clause 9.3(b).
(b)Based on the Provisional Accounts, the provisional book value of PSA net asset to be transferred to FCA as a result of the Merger is equal to EUR 19,584 million, i.e. the excess of:
(i)the provisional book value of the transferred assets (EUR 24,826 million); over
(ii)the provisional book value of the transferred liabilities (EUR 5,242 million).
Given that the exact amount of the definitive value of PSA net asset will only be known after the Effective Time and in the absence of a guarantee as to the definitive value of PSA net asset legally transferred to FCA, it has been decided, by common agreement of the Merging Companies, that the provisional net asset book value retained for the purpose of the Merger will be equal to the net asset book value based on the Provisional Accounts (i.e. EUR 19,584



million) to which a 10% discount will be applied. Therefore, the provisional net asset value retained for the purpose of the Merger will be equal to EUR 17,625.76 million.
10GOODWILL AND DISTRIBUTABLE RESERVES
The Merger has the following impact on the amounts of goodwill and the distributable reserves in the balance sheet of FCA:
(a)Goodwill
A goodwill will be recorded at the Effective Time in the Dutch Statutory Accounts equal to the difference between (i) the value of FCA’s equity resulting from the application of the Exchange Ratio to the market value of the PSA Ordinary Shares and (ii) the fair value of FCA’s assets and liabilities at the Effective Time. Any goodwill that PSA has in its balance sheet immediately prior to the Effective Time will also become goodwill of FCA at the Effective Time, taking into account such adjustments referred to under clause 7.3(a) above.
(b)Distributable reserves
As a result of the Merger, the distributable reserves (vrij uitkeerbare reserves) of FCA will reflect the difference between (i) the total equity of PSA (adjusted as referred under clause 7.3(a) above) increased by the net asset of FCA acquired in the Merger (as set out in clauses 7.2 and 7.3 above) and (ii) the legal reserves that FCA must maintain pursuant to Dutch law and its articles of association, which is expected to result in an increase of distributable reserves compared to FCA's current distributable reserves.

(b)FCA and PSA have agreed that PSA will review with the PSA Managing Board and the PSA Supervisory Board and FCA will review with the FCA Board of Directors a potential distribution of EUR 500 million to be paid by each Merging Company to its shareholders prior to the Closing, but solely if such distribution is paid by both Merging Companies, or, in the alternative, a potential cash distribution of EUR 1.0 billion to be paid by FCA to its shareholders following the Closing; and

16SPECIAL RIGHTS
16.1All PSA Ordinary Shares rank pari passu and, other than the holders of PSA Equity Warrants and the PSA Performance Shares, there are neither natural persons nor legal entities which other than as shareholder have special rights as referred to in Article 2:320 in conjunction with Article 2:312(2)(c) DCC and Article R. 236-14, 5° FCC towards PSA such as a right to receive a distribution of profits or to acquire shares, as a result of which no rights or compensatory payments as referred to in the above mentioned sections shall have to be granted.

16.3Save as disclosed in this Merger Proposal with respect to the PSA Equity Warrants, PSA has not issued any equity or equity linked securities other than PSA Ordinary Shares and accordingly no measures are proposed under the Merger concerning holders of any such securities.
16.4Subject to Clause 17 of this Merger Proposal, no shares or securities will be allotted by FCA pursuant to the Merger other than the New FCA Common Shares. The New FCA Common Shares will rank pari passu with each other and with all FCA Common Shares and no special rights or restrictions will apply to any of the New FCA Common Shares to be allotted pursuant to the Merger.
17PSA EQUITY WARRANTS AND PSA PERFORMANCE SHARES
17.1At the Effective Time, each of the 39,727,324 outstanding equity warrants giving entitlement to subscribe for PSA Ordinary Shares, on the basis of one PSA Ordinary Share for one equity warrant, at an exercise price of EUR 1.00 per PSA Ordinary Share, between July 31, 2022 and July 31, 2026 (the "PSA Equity Warrants"), shall, except to the extent they have been cancelled prior to the Effective Time, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent an equity warrant giving entitlement to subscribe PSA Ordinary Shares and shall be converted into one (1) equity warrant giving entitlement to subscribe a number of FCA Common Shares equal to the exercise ratio of the PSA Equity Warrant in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (a "FCA Equity Warrant"), at an exercise price per FCA Equity Warrant equal to EUR 1.00. Except as specifically set forth above, following the Effective Time, each such FCA Equity Warrant shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting and exercisability terms) as were applicable to such PSA Equity Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time. For information purposes, the terms and conditions of the PSA Equity Warrants are set out in Schedule 11 of this Merger Proposal.
17.2At the Effective Time, each outstanding equity incentive award with respect to PSA Ordinary Shares that is subject to performance conditions, vesting or other restrictions under the PSA Share Plans (a "PSA Performance Share") will, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder of such award, be converted into restricted share unit awards with respect to FCA Common Shares ("FCA RSUs"). Each FCA RSU will represent the right to receive one FCA Common Share. The number of FCA RSUs into which a PSA Performance Share award is converted will equal the product of the number of PSA Ordinary Shares underlying such equity incentive award and the Exchange Ratio (with the number of FCA RSUs to be received by each holder to be rounded down to the nearest whole number without any cash compensation paid or due to such holder). In determining the number of PSA Ordinary Shares underlying an equity incentive award subject to performance conditions, the PSA Managing Board,



subject to the approval of the PSA Supervisory Board, will examine whether performance conditions should be deemed satisfied or not (and, as the case may be, if such performance conditions are satisfied in full or in part) prior to the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, each such FCA RSU will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including service-based vesting terms, but not, subject to the abovementioned decision, performance-based vesting terms) as were applicable to the relevant PSA Performance Share immediately prior to the Effective Time.
