OF DIRECTORS

Every year since 2005, the Company has assessed the operations of its Board of Directors and committees and, in this framework, contracts for an external assessmentto be carried out every three years, in accordance with the recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF code. After two years of internal evaluation, the 2018 evaluation was entrusted to an outside firm based on individual interviews. The firm relied on an interview guide validated by the Compensation and Appointments Committee. The resultsof this assessmentwere discussedin the Compensation and AppointmentsCommitteeMeeting of 7 March2019 and in the meetingof the Boardof Directorson 14 March2019. The Directors stressed that the functioning of the Board of Directors generally met their expectations, had improved even further, and was consistent with the rules of good governance.
