Change of Director

Mr Jean-Marcel Denis today resigned as a Non-executive Director of the Company effective immediately after the Company's AGM. Mr Jean-Marcel Denis was Chairman of the Audit Committee and a member of the Nomination and Remuneration Committees. The Board thanks Mr Denis for his years of dedicated and loyal service to the Group and wishes him and his family well for the future.

Mr René Proglio, Non-executive Director and member of the Audit Committee, succeeds Mr Jean-Marcel Denis as Chairman of the Audit Committee, also effective as of today immediately after the Company's AGM. The Audit Committee will therefore comprise Sir John Lewis, Mr Emmanuel Olympitis, and Ms Françoise Coutaz-Replan, with Mr Proglio as its Chairman. The Board wishes Mr Proglio well in his new role.
