(1) For the record, the performance condition for the 2013 stock option plan, which became exercisable on November 21, 2017, is set out on page 90 of the 2013 Registration Document: “Performance conditions [are] linked, for stock options, to Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance compared with a reference stock market index which is based for 50% on the CAC 40 and for 50% on a sample of eight listed companies - NSG, 3M, Imerys, CRH, Travis Perkins, Wolseley, Owens Corning and Rockwool - operating in one or more of Saint-Gobain’s businesses (with each accounting for 1/8th of the 50%).” “The applicable performance conditions are as follows: a) for the stock options, Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance will be calculated by comparing average prices for Saint-Gobain shares for the six months to November 21, 2013 with the average prices for the six months to November 21, 2017. Based on this comparison, at the end of the four-year vesting period the options will be exercisable as follows: -if Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance exceeds that of the reference index by at least 10%, all of the options will be exercisable; -if Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance is between 10% higher and 20% lower than that of the reference index, the number of exercisable options will be calculated by the following formula: ([Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance/performance of the index] - 80%) / (110% - 80%) -if Saint-Gobain’s stock market performance is 20% or more below that of the reference index, none of the options will be exercisable.”
