2. Notes to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements / 2.6 Employees Costs and Benefits

Post-Employment Benefit Costs Post-employment benefit costs relate to the aggregated amount of current service and interest costs for defined benefit plan and company cost for contributions base plans. Following the Board decision approved in the AGM 2020, the CEO pension rights are accrued through a defined contributions plan from 1 January 2020, which coexists with the former defined benefit pension plan. The accrued pension rights under the former defined benefit plan have been frozen at the end of 2019 and remain unvested until the retirement date of the CEO. The pension rights arising from the Company’s defined contribution plan are deducted from the frozen defined pension rights. As of 31 December 2021, the defined benefit obligation related to the frozen defined benefit commitment amounts to €9,048,433 (€9,423,777 in 2020). This obligation has been accrued in the 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements and will be updated annually up to the retirement date of the CEO considering additional service cost and future changes on economic assumptions or other factors like salary increase. For the fiscal year 2021, the cost related to the CEO’s pension rights accrued under Company’s plans during the year represented an expense of €1,138,794 ( versus an expense of €1,179,332 in 2020). The annual cost of pension rights accrued under applicable mandatory collective and state pension plans are accounted for among social charges
