PRESS RELEASE

                EURAZEO ANNOUNCES THE SALE OF ITS STAKE IN NEOVIA

Paris, February 1, 2019 - Eurazeo, Idia, Future French Champions, and
Unigrains, Neovia shareholders since 2015 alongside InVivo (historical majority
shareholder), have today announced the effective sale of all Neovia shares to
Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM).

Over the past three years, spurred by Eurazeo and InVivo, its historical
shareholder, as well as its management team, Neovia has undergone an in-depth
transformation and accelerated its international reach, while expanding into
high added-value businesses. Over the period, the company carried out more than
15 acquisitions worldwide, boosting its revenue outside Europe from 52% to
nearly 75%. Backed by its new shareholder, with its highly complementary market
positions, Neovia is well positioned to further its global leadership in animal
nutrition.

Transaction sales proceeds for Eurazeo and its investor partners total EUR225
million, including EUR170 million for Eurazeo, representing a return on its
initial investment of nearly 2x and an IRR of approximately 20%.
