The General Shareholders' Meeting of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain

aggregate 68.36% of the outstanding shares. All resolutions were
adopted.
In particular, this General Shareholders' Meeting appointed
Benoit BAZIN, future Chief Executive Officer as from July 1(st) ,
2021, as a new Director. Pierre-André de CHALENDAR will serve as

In addition, the Directors' terms of office of Pamela KNAPP and

Sibylle DAUNIS as Director representing employee shareholders, were
renewed by the General Shareholders' Meeting. Philippe VARIN, whose
experience and judgement have contributed significantly to the
Board's debates and decisions, did not wish to renew his term of
office, in view of the age limit he would have reached during his
term of office if renewed, and leaves the Board today.
