Proxy Report - 29/05/2018

ITEMS 9 and 10: Amounts granted in 2017 to Mr Delabrière and Mr de Rosen are excessive compared to the SBF120 median


ITEM 11: Although the company’s disclosure allows shareholders to clearly understand amounts granted, the latest are excessive and unbalance the global structure of the 2017 total remuneration of Mr Koller, CEO.

ITEM 8: the company proposes to increase by 10% the fixed remuneration. This increase is not itself an issue. However, the company did not compensate this increase (by decreasing the maximum bonus to 150% of fixed remuneration for example). It is unfortunate as structure remains unbalanced and amounts to be granted remain excessive.
