In respect of the provisions laid down under Article 520ter of the Companies Code concerning variable remuneration for the members of the Management Committee and the need to spread variable remuneration payments over a three year period in case certain thresholds are passed, the Board of Directors states the following:
Taking the above into consideration and since the target variable remuneration bonus pay-out for the Managing Director and CEO, as well as the other members of the Management Committee, surpasses the 25% maximum threshold, the Board of Directors proposes to the General Shareholders' meeting to approve the said deviation from the principle of a spread over three years and hence allow the full payment of the variable remuneration within a shorter period.
Resolution No 7.6. : Approval of the deviation from the principle of a spread over three years and to allow, given the cyclical nature of the business, the full payment of the variable remuneration within a shorter period for the benefit of the Managing Director and CEO, Olivier Chapelle SPRL, as well as for the benefit of all other members of the Management Committee.

New edition of the Stock Option Plan of the Recticel Group.
The Board of Directors intends to issue in 2020, within the framework of the authorised capital, a new edition of the Stock Option Plan of the Recticel Group. To this effect, it requests the authorisation of the General Meeting, not through any legal obligation but in accordance with the 2009 Code of Corporate Governance.
Resolution No 8.1 : The Meeting gives its authorisation to the Board of Directors so that, if appropriate, it can issue a new edition of the Stock Option Plan of the Recticel Group in favour of the senior managers of the Recticel Group. If the Board of Directors decides to do this, the new edition will include the issue of a maximum of 600,000 stock options, with a period for exercising the option of three to maximum nine years and an unavailability period of three years, to be allocated to the beneficiaries free of charge. The issue price will be fixed on the basis of the average price of a Recticel share over the normal period preceding the offer.
