Dear EDAP Shareholders,

EDAP has achieved many significant milestones over the past year. Almost without exception, the economic circumstances in the countries we operate in remain challenging. Yet, through the tremendous energy and effort from all the EDAP teams around the world, we achieved significant growth in revenues in 2012, concluded the follow-up phase of our US clinical trial for Ablatherm-HIFU and refocused our activities on the US market by relocating our Chief Executive Officer to the United States.

2012 was a record breaking year for EDAP in lithotripsy sales. We attribute much of this success to our strategy of having a wide range of products that address most of market segments and enable greater market penetration. Specifically, 2012 was a great year for our operations in Asia, and our activities gained significant traction in the Middle East.

We have been growing our lithotripsy business in the recent years because of our commitment and capacity for innovation. We have clearly demonstrated this over the past few years as we built a range of innovative products with our current range of lithotriptors including our Sonolith i-move and Sonolith i-sys. They represent not only a very innovative offering on the market but also a wide range of options and solutions. This record of innovation, combined with an aggressive and effective market penetration strategy, has led to a record 2012 year for EDAP.  As we continue to expand our presence around the world, we work at maintaining this trend.

Turning to our HIFU (“High Intensity Focused Ultrasound”) division and our US ENLIGHT clinical trial, in 2012 we completed the 2-year patient follow-up phase and conducted in-depth analysis of the data and resulting statistics in order to provide the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) with the most comprehensive data.  On January 31, 2013, we submitted our Pre-Market Approval (“PMA”) file to the FDA for our Ablatherm device and on March 26, 2013, we received confirmation from the FDA that our PMA submission contained all of the information needed to proceed with the substantive review. With this major milestone completed, we have now entered the substantive review phase for Ablatherm-HIFU.  Since the start of our clinical trial, we have strived to maintain close communication with the FDA. We will continue to provide the agency with timely communications in order to support their review process.

We recently announced a new addition to our HIFU offering: a new robotic HIFU device for focal therapy of prostate cancer called Focal.One.  Focal.One is the first device dedicated to the focal approach in prostate cancer therapy.  We officially launched Focal.One at the 28th Annual European Urology Association (EAU) Congress in Milan, Italy, in March 2013 where we saw tremendous interest in the device.  Focal.one, in combination with our existing Ablatherm device, provides the company with a full range of innovative HIFU offerings. This is in line with our global strategy of covering most segments of the markets within which we operate. It allows us to expand our business and answer the treatment needs of most types of urologists and patients with localized prostate cancer.
 
 

 
Finally, in 2012, we achieved major financial milestones by gradually streamlining our capital structure. We restructured and reduced the amount of outstanding bonds to $8 million. Also, we very recently launched a $ 12 million fund raise which will allow us to further strengthen our financial profile, as well to accelerate our investments in preparation for our market entry in the U.S. with Ablatherm-HIFU.

Based on these achievements, we are pleased to convene our shareholders in a General Meeting on June 17, 2013 and would like to take this opportunity to request your support for the attached resolutions.

You will be requested to vote for resolutions submitted to (i) the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders and to the (ii) Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders.

Resolutions relevant to the Ordinary General Meeting (Resolutions 1 to 4) include approval of the Company’s 2012 fiscal year accounts, related corporate activity approvals and allocation of Board fees. We invite you to read the Company’s Form 20-F Report relating to the 2012 fiscal year available on the Company’s website www.edap-tms.com, Investor Relations section.

Resolutions relating to the Extraordinary General Meeting relate mainly to the renewal of the resolutions that you previously authorized in last year’s General Meeting. The resolutions, in accordance with French and international standards and in the interest of the Company, aim at providing the Company with the ongoing flexibility to develop its business in the months and years to come.

To that end, we submit for your approval the renewal of various financial delegations to your Board of Directors (Resolutions 6 to 9), which would allow it, if need be, to implement share capital increases, with or without preferential subscription rights. The maximum aggregate nominal amount of share capital increases that may be carried out, pursuant to the delegations we propose you to grant to your Board of Directors, would be renewed at 1,300,000 euros, i.e., a maximum possible number of 10,000,000 shares with a nominal amount of 0.13 euros each (Resolution 5).

While the Company was recently able to raise funds in good conditions, we believe that that these authorizations are necessary to ensure that the Company has the flexibility to conduct its business and seize future opportunities. The Board of Directors and I remain committed to making sure that the use, if any, of these authorizations will be thoroughly reviewed in light of the ultimate interest of the Company’s Shareholders.

In the name of the Board of Directors of EDAP,
I wish to thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,


Philippe CHAUVEAU
Chairman of the Board

DECISIONS RELATING TO THE ORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING
 
Management report on the Company’s activity for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012:

We invite you to read the management report of the Board of Directors available pursuant to French laws and regulations and the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on the 2012 consolidated accounts, which is available on the Company’s website www.edap-tms.com, in the “Investor Relations” section, to have a detailed view of our 2012 activity, significant events which occurred since January 1, 2013 and future prospects.

While remaining committed and focused on the development of its activities in the United States, the Company has decided not to have a majority of U.S. residents and/or citizens as members of its Board of Directors given the impact on EDAP’s status as a “Foreign Private Issuer” with regards to U.S. law. In that respect, during the Board of Directors’ meeting on May 15, 2013, Marc Oczachowski, currently a U.S. resident, informed the Board of Directors of his resignation from his mandate as Director, with immediate effect, which was acknowledged by the Board of Directors.
 
DECISIONS RELATING TO THE EXTRAORDINARY SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING

Prior to examining the various proposals submitted to your approval, please find below a summary of the reasons that have led us to call the extraordinary general meeting.

On June 25, 2012, we convened you to submit to you certain resolutions allowing us to seize financing opportunities in order to strengthen the Company’s financial structure. We hereby wish to renew and extend the validity of some of these delegations granted to the Board of Directors as some of these delegations terminate in November 2013.

In accordance with French and international standards and in the interest of the Company, in the view of its development, it seems appropriate to us to renew various financial delegations to your Board of Directors (resolutions 6 to 9) granted to the Board of Directors to implement share capital increases, immediately or in the future, with or without preferential subscription rights, with the same objective of responding to opportunities which may arise and thus allow the Company to strengthen its equity capital.
 
- 2 -

 
In addition, in line with the Company’s profit-sharing policy in favor of its employees, we submit a delegation of authority to be granted to your Board of Directors so that it may carry out a share capital increase for the benefit of participants in the Company’s employee savings scheme (resolution 10).

The maximum aggregate nominal amount of share capital increases that may be carried out pursuant to the delegations we propose you to grant to your Board of Directors would be set at 1,300,000 euros, i.e., a maximum number of shares of 10,000,000 with a nominal value of 0.13 euros each (resolution 5).

This amount would be an aggregate maximum which would be the same for all resolutions providing for share capital increases. To this amount must be added, if need be, the additional amount of the shares or securities to be further issued to preserve, as provided by law and by any applicable contractual provision providing for other cases of adjustments, the rights of the holders of securities giving access to share capital or other rights giving access to share capital.

Please also note that the delegations granted pursuant to resolutions 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 will replace the previously granted delegations having the same purpose.

In the event that the Board of Directors uses the delegations of authority granted to it pursuant to these resolutions, it shall report to the next shareholders’ general meeting on the use made by it of such delegations, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

For each of the delegations submitted to your approval, the reports established by the Company’s statutory auditor will be read to you.

We propose to hereinafter review each of the resolutions submitted to your approval in the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting:
 
2.
Financial delegations to be granted to the board of directors

Resolution 5 enables to set the maximum aggregate nominal amount of the share capital increases that may be carried out and the debt securities that may be issued pursuant to the delegations submitted to your vote at 1,300,000 euros, i.e., a maximum of 10,000,000 shares to be issued with a nominal value of 0.13 euro each.

The four delegations of authority submitted to your approval (resolutions 6 to 9) will allow the Board of Directors to respond to any capital-raising opportunities which would prove necessary in order to finance the development of the Company.

The Board of Directors would have all powers to implement these delegations, in accordance with applicable law and the Company’s by-laws, in order, without limiting the generality hereof, to set the dates, the terms and conditions of any issuance, the form and characteristics of shares or securities giving access to the share capital or debt securities to be issued, with or without a premium. The Board of Directors shall, in particular, determine the amount to be issued, set the date of dividend rights, including retroactive, for the shares or securities giving access to the share capital or debt securities to be issued, determine the method of paying-up and, if need be, the strike price, the exercise period of the securities, or the terms of the exercise of the rights for exchange, conversion, repayment or attribution by other manner of shares or securities giving access to the share capital, subject to the limits set in the delegations submitted to your approval.

The Board of Directors would have all powers to implement these delegations, on one or more occasions, and in such proportions and at any such times it may deem appropriate, and to issue the corresponding securities or, as the case may be, to postpone such issuances, enter into all agreements to ensure the success of the contemplated issuances, acknowledge the completion of such issuances
 
- 3 -

 
and amend accordingly the by-laws and more generally, to do the following:

-  
determine, in accordance with applicable laws, the possible adjustments of the terms under which the securities may in the future give access to the share capital,
-  
suspend, if need be, the exercise of rights attached to such securities as permitted by laws and regulations, for a maximum period of three (3) months,
-  
deduct any amounts from the share premiums, in particular, the cost of any capital increases,
-  
ensure in the future the protection of the rights of holders of securities giving access to the share capital of the Company in accordance with applicable laws and regulations,
-  
take all measures and perform all formalities required in light of the issuance, listing and financial services for the securities issued pursuant to this resolution and the exercise of rights attached thereto.

For the purposes hereof, the Board of Directors asks you to approve or renew the resolutions mentioned below, using the legal mechanism of delegation of authority, and to delegate your authority to it in order to:

-  
increase the share capital by issuance of shares or any securities giving access to the share capital of the Company or giving a right to allocation of debt securities, with preservation of the Company’s shareholders' preferential subscription rights (resolution 6)

-  
increase the share capital by issuance of shares or any securities giving access to the share capital of the Company or giving a right to allocation of debt securities, with cancellation of the Company’s shareholders' preferential subscription rights, by means of a public offering (resolution 7)

-  
increase the share capital by issuance of shares or any securities giving access to the share capital, with cancellation of the shareholders' preferential subscription rights in favor of one or several categories of persons who meet certain specified characteristics, being specified that the issuance price (or the amount of the counterparty which is due to the Company for each share to be issued, in the case of issuance of securities giving access to the Company’s share capital) will be set in accordance with usual market practices, by reference to the price offered to institutional investors in the context of said global placement, in accordance with the over-the-counter negotiations the Board of Directors will carry out with said investors. In any case, the price so determined by the Board of Directors may represent a discount compared to the trading price of the Company’s share on the NASDAQ (resolution 8).

 
Pursuant to this resolution 8, you are asked to cancel the shareholders’ preferential subscription rights for the shares and securities which would be issued hereto and to reserve subscription of such shares to the new or existing investors who meet all of the criteria specified in A. or B. below, for a minimum individual subscription amount of 250,000 euros or its counter-value in foreign currencies as at the date of subscription (issuance premium included):
 
 
A.

(ii)  
specialized or skilled in the health care or biotechnologies areas or specialized in investing in companies with high growth potential; and
(iii)  
which are prepared to make an investment decision in respect of the Company solely based on available public information, provided, however, that each prospective investor will be required to enter into a confidentiality agreement
 
 
- 4 -

 
regarding the proposed investment prior to any disclosure to it of the name of the Company; or
 
 
B.
any placement agent or underwriter in connection with the offering or the placement of shares or securities giving access to the Company’s share capital to investors meeting the criteria set forth in A. above, as part of such agent’s or underwriter’s compensation for their services.

increase the share capital by issuance of shares or any securities giving access to the share capital, with cancellation of the shareholders' preferential subscription rights in favor of practitioners using the Company’s technologies who meet certain specified characteristics, or commercial partners, or patients who have benefited from treatments using technologies developed by the Company, being specified that the issuance price (or the amount of the counterparty which is due to the Company for each share to be issued, in the case of issuance of securities giving access to the Company’s share capital) will be set in accordance with usual market practices, in accordance with the over-the-counter negotiations the Board of Directors will carry out with said investors. In any case, the price so determined by the Board of Directors may represent a discount compared to the trading price of the Company’s share on the NASDAQ (resolution 9).

In this resolution, you are asked to cancel the shareholders’ preferential subscription rights for the shares and securities which would be issued hereto and to reserve subscription in favor of the following new or existing investors, with a maximum of 150 subscribers, with a minimum individual subscription amount of 10,000 euros or its counter-value in foreign currencies as at the date of subscription (issuance premium included): practitioners who have used the Company’s technologies over the course of the last 24 months preceding the issuance of the shares, subject to compliance with the applicable laws and professional ethics, commercial partners who contracted with the Company within the last 24 months or patients who benefited from technologies developed by the Company within the last 10 years.
