EXECUTIVE OFFICER

The total remuneration and benefits in kind paid by Quadient S.A. and the companies it controls to Didier Lamouche, Chairman and Geoffrey Godet, Chief Executive Officer, during the financial year 2020 were awarded on the basis of the resolutions approved by the General Meeting of July 6, 2020. These resolutions approved the principles and criteria for setting, allocating and awarding the various elements of this remuneration. At Quadient, the remuneration policy for executive directors is determined by the Board of Directors, upon the Appointments and Remuneration Committee’s proposal.

The Board of Directors and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee refer in particular to the recommendations of the Afep-Medef code when establishing the remuneration and benefits awarded to Quadient’s executive directors. In accordance with these recommendations, they ensure that this remuneration policy complies with principles of comprehensiveness, balance, comparability, consistency, transparency and moderation, and also take market practices into account and, more generally, Quadient's corporate interest. Due to the time spent in the United States linked to the importance of this country for Quadient, Geoffrey Godet’s remuneration is partly paid in United States dollars by the subsidiary company Quadient Holding Inc.
