                 Project to transfer listing to Euronext Growth
                      New Chief Financial Officer appointed

Paris,11 September 2020,

The Board of Directors of Netgem has decided to submit to the Ordinary General
Meeting of shareholders to be convened on October 20, 2020, the plan to
transfer Netgem shares from the Euronext Paris market to the Euronext Growth
Paris market.

Reasons for the transfer

Euronext Growth has asserted itself since its creation as the market of choice
for growth companies with a market capitalization of less than one billion
euros and sufficient free float of over 2.5 million euros. This transfer will
allow the Group to benefit from the dynamics and visibility of this market,
while controlling its overheads.

Terms of the transfer

Subject to the approval of this project by the shareholders and the agreement
of Euronext Paris, this listing by direct admission will be carried out through
an accelerated procedure for direct admission to trading of the existing shares
of Netgem, which will simultaneously cease to be listed on Euronext Paris. No
new shares will be issued on the occasion of this transfer.

Netgem will engage the services of a listing sponsor within the timeframe
required from the date of the transfer.

Consequences of the transfer

In accordance with applicable regulations, the Group wishes to inform its
shareholders of some of the possible consequences of such a transfer:

o The consolidated accounts closed on December 31, 2020 will remain established
in accordance with IFRS. From the 2021 financial year, the half- year report,
including the financial statements and the activity report, will be published
within 4 months after the end of the half-year (instead of the 3- month period
in force on Euronext) and will no longer be subject to a limited review by the
statutory auditors. The Group may also choose to prepare its accounts either in
accordance with IFRS or in French standards.

o Netgem will remain subject, for a period of 3 years from the transfer to
Euronext Growth, to the system of mandatory public offers and to the
maintenance of the information obligations relating to threshold crossings as
applicable for companies listed on Euronext.

o Beyond this 3-year period, the compulsory public offer mechanism will apply
in the event that a shareholder, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert,
exceeds the threshold of 50% of the capital or of the voting rights. The
communication thresholds for crossing of thresholds will then also be limited
to crossing of 50% and 95%.

o Euronext Growth being an organized multilateral trading system, Netgem will
remain subject to the applicable provisions on permanent market information and
more particularly to the provisions of Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of April
16, 2014 on market abuse (known as "MAR regulation").

o Netgem executives (and persons related to them) will remain subject to the
obligation to declare the transactions they carry out on the Group's shares and
debt securities.

The company draws attention to the fact that the transfer to Euronext Growth
could result in a change in the liquidity of the shares different from that
observed on the regulated market of Euronext Paris.

Beyond the foregoing, the Netgem group will ensure that the quality of the
relationships it has always sought to establish with its shareholders and
investors is maintained.

Provisional timetable for the transfer (subject to the agreement of Euronext
Paris)

October 20, 2020: Ordinary General Meeting of Netgem and Board of Directors
implementing the transfer.

The admission to Euronext Growth will take place within a minimum of 2 months
from the General Meeting.

New Chief Financial Officer appointed

Following the retirement of Mr. Alain Floch at the end of September, Netgem
announces the appointment of Mrs. Sandrine Alexandre to head the Group's
Finance Department. Mrs. Alexandre joined the Group when it was founded and
previously held the position of Deputy Chief Financial Officer.
