Just develop it normally. You overexposed by about one stop,
who cares?
The film could be overexposed by 3 or 4 stops and would
still deliver
quite normal (if dense) negatives. Modern films have
extremely long
straight density curves and will only have very well defined
shadows when
overexposed a few stops.

Because of the way the ISO standard is written it gives
just about the minimum exposure possible for good shadow
detail. Many photographers find an extra stop of exposure
gives better shadow detail. Note also that the total range
of a typical scene is perhaps seven or eight stops so two
extra will not make much difference in tone rendition.
