ITEM 5.03	Amendment to Bylaws

On May 16, 2019, the shareholders of Criteo S.A. (the " Company ") amended and restated the By-laws ( statuts ) of the Company, effective immediately. Article 11.1 of the By-laws has been amended to provide that the board of directors of the Company (the " Board ") shall be composed of at least three and no more than ten members, whereas previously, the maximum number of directors who could serve on the Board was eighteen (the maximum number allowed under French law). The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the amended By-laws, the English translation of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.



ITEM 5.07	Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Because none of the matters voted upon at the 2019 Annual General Meeting were considered “routine” under relevant stock exchange rules, brokers were not permitted to exercise discretion with respect to any matter; accordingly, there were no broker non-votes with respect to any matter.
