transformation applied to Digital and data strategy over the course

The Board warmly thanks Laura Desmond for her
contribution to its work and its committees during her tenure.
In addition, as part of the internal management
transition process initiated in 2017 on the initiative of Paul
Hermelin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Board of
Directors decided on 16 September 2019 to appoint Aiman Ezzat,
currently Chief Operating Officer, to succeed Paul Hermelin as
Chief Executive Officer after the General Meeting of Shareholders
scheduled for May 20, 2020. The Board of Directors also wished to
propose to the 2020 Shareholders' Meeting the appointment of Aiman
Ezzat as a member of the Board of Directors for a term of four
years.
Assuming the adoption of these resolutions by
the Shareholders’ Meeting of May 20, 2020, the Board of Directors
