CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Composition and conditions for the preparation and organization of the Board of Directors
Within the scope of the law and the rights and duties of directors as defined in the Internal Rules of the Board of Directors of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE and in accordance with the AFEP-MEDEF Code, directors are subject to compliance with the rules applicable to the situation of conflict of interest and stock exchange Code of Ethics.
Mr. Laurent Burelle and Ms. Éliane Lemarié are brother and sister. Mr. Paul Henry Lemarié is the husband of Ms. Éliane Lemarié.
Ms. Félicie Burelle is the daughter of Mr. Laurent Burelle.
Ms. Cécile Moutet is the daughter of Mr. Jean Burelle. Ms. Félicie Burelle and Ms. Cécile Moutet are cousins
There are no family ties between the other directors of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE
Each director has declared, as they do every year, that he/she:
· has not been convicted of fraud in the last five fiscal years;
Directors are required to act in the interests of the Company in all circumstances
Each year, the Board of Directors examines potential situations of conflicts of interest and the agreements reported to it pursuant to Article 4.2 of its Internal Rules
Beyond the provisions of the French Commercial Code applicable to related party agreements, the Board's Internal Rules provide that each director must inform the Board of any conflict that might exist between his or her interests and those of the Company and of any conflict of interest in which he or she might be involved, directly or indirectly, and, if involvement in such conflict cannot be avoided, must refrain from participating in the discussions and decisions on the matters concerned.
On the basis of the declarations prepared by each director in application of the delegated regulation (EU) no. 2019/980 supplementing regulation (EU) no. 2017/1129 called "Prospectus 3," the Board of Directors has not identified any potential conflict of interest between the duties of the directors with respect to Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE and their private interests and/or other duties. In particular, based on the work of the Appointments and CSR Committee, the Board of Directors found that there was no business relationship of any nature between the Plastic Omnium Group and any of its directors, which could lead to conflicts of interest.
No director is bound either to the Company or to its subsidiaries through service contracts providing benefits of any kind.
The Board of Directors is aware of the applicable rules on the prevention of insider misconduct, in particular the periods during which trading in securities of the Company is prohibited. It ensures that its Internal Rules and the Stock Exchange Ethics Charter are regularly updated
On the basis of laws, regulations and market recommendations, Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE's Stock Market Ethics Charter sets out the legal and regulatory framework applicable to insider information in order to enable each director to avoid breaching these rules.
Insider information is specific non-public information which, if it were to be made public, could have an appreciable influence on the share price. This insider information can be of three main types in particular: strategic, linked to the definition and implementation of the Group's development policy; recurring, linked to the annual calendar for the production and publication of annual and interim financial statements, regular communications or periodic meetings dedicated to financial information: or ad hoc, linked to a given project or financial transaction.
This charter explains what is forbidden when holding inside information, in particular when it involves carrying out or having carried out financial transactions on Plastic Omnium shares on the stock market. It reiterates that misconduct in this area is subject to criminal penalties.
Directors with permanent insider status are particularly requested not to carry out transactions on the securities of Plastic Omnium during certain periods if they have insider information. The Internal Rules of the Board of Directors mention the obligation for all members of the Board of Directors and all censors of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE to comply with the terms of the charter. Members are periodically reminded of these obligations by the Company.
In the meeting of the Board of Directors of December 7, 2022, each director received the schedule of closed periods for 2023 outside of which they may trade in Plastic Omnium shares.
Furthermore, the directors notify the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF – Autorité des Marchés Financiers) of each transaction carried out by themselves, or by persons closely related to them, involving Plastic Omnium securities (see section 3.2.5 "Summary of transactions reported by executive corporate officers and directors during fiscal year 2022").

All the directors of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE have access to permanent information and resources adapted to the performance of their duties. Everyone has a duty of care and participates independently in the work and decisions of the Board and, where applicable, its review Committees. Each director is subject to compliance with the rules in force on conflicts of interest
Article 4.6 of the Internal Rules provides that the Board of Directors must carry out an annual assessment of the independence of each director with regard to the criteria of the AFEP-MEDEF Code to which it refers, i.e.:
Is not or has not been during the past five years:
Is not an executive corporate officer of a company in which the Company directly or indirectly holds an office of director or in which an employee designated as such or an executive corporate officer of the Company (at present or having been at any time in the past five years) holds an office of director.
Is not a significant customer, supplier, investment banker, corporate banker or adviser:
The assessment as to whether or not the relationship with the Company or its Group is significant is discussed by the Board, and the quantitative and qualitative criteria leading to this assessment (continuity, economic dependence, exclusivity, etc.) are explained in the annual report.
Does not have close family ties with a director
Has not been Statutory Auditor of the Company during the past five years.
Has not been a director of the Company for more than twelve years. Loss of status as independent director occurs on the twelfth anniversary of the start of the term of office.
A non-executive corporate officer cannot be considered independent if he or she receives variable compensation in cash or shares or any compensation linked to the performance of the Company or of the Group.
Directors representing major shareholders in the Company or its parent company may be considered as independent providing these shareholders do not participate in the control of the Company. However, above a threshold of 10% of the capital or voting rights, the Board, based on a report by the Appointments Committee, systematically reviews the classification as independent, taking account of the composition of the Company's capital and the existence of any potential conflict of interest.
At its meeting of February 21, 2023, the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Appointments and CSR Committee, examined the independence of the directors at December 31, 2022. On the proposal of this committee, the Board considered, in accordance with the AFEP-MEDEF Code to which the Company refers, that a director is independent when "he or she has no relationship of any kind with the Company, its Group or its management that could compromise the exercise of his or her freedom of judgment".
At December 31, 2022, in addition to Mr. Laurent Favre and Ms. Félicie Burelle, executive corporate officers, the following directors cannot be considered independent:

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Composition and conditions for the preparation and organization of the Board of Directors
The Chairman of the Board of Directors shall provide the directors with sufficient time to enable them to fully perform their duties. In addition, the Chairman of the Board of Directors constantly communicates to the members of the Board any material information concerning the Company. Each director receives and may request all information necessary for the performance of their duties. For this purpose, the directors may meet with the key executive corporate officers of the Company and the Group as soon as the Chairman of the Board of Directors has been informed in advance.
At the request of the Chairman of the Board of Directors or a director, an operational director may be invited to any meeting of the Board devoted to the prospects and strategies of their sphere of business.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors participates in organizing the Board's periodic self-assessment and the reflections on governance matters relating to the Board's functioning
Once a year, the Board devotes an item on its agenda to the assessment of its functioning in order to:
For this purpose, once a year, the Board of Directors discusses its functioning, and every three years it conducts a formal evaluation carried out with the support of the Appointments and CSR Committee, and the assistance of an external consultant where necessary, and in accordance with the recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF Code,
The shareholders are informed each year in the report on corporate governance, of the performance of the assessment and follow-up measures.
The 2022 assessment procedure was reviewed by the Appointments and CSR Committee.
It was carried out using a questionnaire prepared in 2021 with the assistance of an external firm. This document, previously approved by the Appointments and CSR Committee, served as a basis for the interviews organized between the directors and the Secretary of the Board. The directors were once again asked to give their opinion on the main governance issues, in particular the organization of its Senior Executives, the need to appoint a lead director, executive sessions and relations with shareholders on governance issues.
The work of the Committees was also reviewed, in particular the procedure for assessing current agreements, the analysis of the independence of the directors and anv conflicts of interest.
The directors also gave their opinion on the quality and relevance of the information provided to them, on the agendas of the Board of Directors and gave their point of view on the Board's commitment in defining the strategy of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE
They made suggestions for improvements and proposals on strategic topics that they would like to pursue in 2023.
The summary of these interviews carried out by the Secretary of the Board gave rise to an initial report to the Appointments and CSR Committee. then to the Board of Directors.
First of all, concerning the composition of the Board, the directors consider that it is satisfactory and balanced. In 2022, the Board welcomed Ms. Martina Buchhauser, founder of The Procurement Initiative, and Ms. Elisabeth Ourliac, former Vice-President Strategy of Airbus (see paragraph 3.1.1.3-Changes in terms of office and positions of the Board of Directors). The diversity of profiles and expertise makes it possible to actively discuss with Senior Executives the strategic challenges facing the Group and to make independent decisions. The composition of Committees is also considered appropriate with competent directors within each of them.
Concerning the onboarding procedure for new directors, the Board considers that this is satisfactory (in particular the provision of the necessary information documents, the interview with the Secretary of the Board and the Chairmen of the Committees).
Concerning the organization of Board discussions, it was stressed that each director plays his or her role to the full by questioning Senior Executives. Discussions are held freely, and the directors express themselves in a very positive climate of trust. The Chairman promotes exchanges and the quality of debates. Senior Executives communicate transparently and respond in detail to all questions. The dynamics of the Board are quite satisfactory with excellent interaction between the various directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and the Managing Director.
Concerning the work of the Committees, their operation is satisfactory, the projects are well constructed. The directors, members of these committees, believe that the subjects are dealt with in a serious and solid manner. The Board can take its decisions with complete confidence on the basis of the recommendations of the Committees.
The Audit Committee fulfills its missions exactly, with work based on the detailed information provided by the Company's management. The balance between compliance and business issues is particularly appreciated. CSR topics and the monitoring of non-financial data are well addressed and will be strengthened.
The Compensation Committee is well prepared and the work is well anticipated. The members of this Committee have a good level of information to prepare recommendations, in particular comparable companies drawn up on the basis of a sample of companies adapted in size, organization, sector and challenges, as well as consolidated analyses on compensation in the SBF 120 and/or SBF 80. The alignment of compensation with the strategic objectives pursued is verified. The inclusion of quantifiable criteria related to the Company's climate objectives, in particular the carbon neutrality strategy, is the subject of particular attention by the Committee (see paragraph 3,1,4),

The quality of the work of the Appointments and CSR Committee is highlighted, in particular the selection of new directors, which is carried out well in advance. CSR issues are now widely addressed and include the Company's climate and carbon neutrality strategy, the review of the Non-Financial Reporting Disclosure, the social dimension, gender diversity within management bodies, for which Plastic Omnium is regularly recognized for its strong commitment to diversity within the Group.
Directors emphasized the quality of information, which is provided in full and is detailed, and which is communicated to them before each meeting of the Board and committees and which promotes the quality of discussions.
Directors considered that Board of Directors' meeting agendas are adapted to the economic situation and cover all subjects. The in-depth presentation of revenue, the automotive market and new technologies allow directors to be immersed in Plastic Omnium's operational business. Concerning acquisitions, the directors are satisfied with the way in which the discussions are presented and discussed in the Board. They are in line with the Group's strategy. The Senior Executives listen to the opinions of the directors. The monitoring of acquisitions and the integration of acquired companies processed by the Audit Committee was greatly appreciated.
The directors do not consider it necessary to appoint a Lead Director, in light of the composition and functioning of the Board. This appointment would be of limited interest, as the directors wished to maintain a direct relationship with the Chairman and Senior Executives.
They also believe that the attention paid to conflicts of interest is well managed by the rules in force. They attach particular importance to the annual analysis of the independence of the directors and to the assessment made, since 2020, of agreements relating to ordinary operations and concluded under arm's length conditions.
In addition, there were the following points for improvement: continued involvement of the Board of Directors in terms of corporate social responsibility and the monitoring of non-financial criteria; the holding of meetings of the Board of Directors at an operational site would allow members to assess in situ the progress of the Company in the areas of investment and strategy. In 2023, the Board of Directors will meet at one of the sites belonging to the acquisitions carried out in 2022.
By virtue of the legal and regulatory provisions and of Article 11 of the bylaws, the Board of Directors sets the Group's strategies and ensures their implementation in accordance with its corporate interest, taking into consideration social and environmental challenges. It determines, on the proposal of Senior Executives, the multi-year strategic guidelines in terms of corporate social responsibility.
The strategic orientations defined by the Board of Directors include issues
related to climate change and more generally sustainable development challenges. Each of the three Specialized committees of the Board of Directors examines matters falling within its area of expertise, taking into consideration the Company's sustainability strategy. Thus, on the basis of the work of its Committees, the Board of Directors annually reviews the Group's CSR policy and determines the strategic orientations taking into consideration social and environmental challenges. The strategic climate guidelines include objectives that are governed by a specific timetable.
Subject to the powers expressly conferred on Shareholders' Meetings and within the limits of the Company's objects, the Board examines any question in connection with the smooth running of the Company and through its deliberations settles matters concerning it. It is committed to promoting the long-term creation of value by the business.
The Board ensures that shareholders receive relevant and informative information on the Company's strategy, development model and the account taken of the significant non-financial challenges facing the Company as well as its long-term outlook.
The Board of Directors carries out the controls and verifications that it deems necessary. The directors control the Company's economic and financial management, they review and approve the broad lines of actions considered by the Senior Executives, which implement them
To this end. the Board constantly seeks a working method which. while strictly complying with the law and regulations, is conducive to the conditions of good corporate governance.
The works of the Board of Directors are based on its regularly updated Internal Rules, which aim at completing the legal, regulatory and statutory rules and the industry recommendations that the Board refers to
The balance of powers within the Board of Directors is based mainly on its consistent and harmonious composition and on the qualities of its members. The diversity and complementarity of the directors' experiences and expertise (entrepreneurial, international, financial, industrial, digital, etc.) enables quick and in-depth understanding of the challenges associated with the Plastic Omnium Group's development.
The balance between long-serving, seasoned directors and those more recently appointed allows a new vision to be combined with the consistency of long-term decisions.
Senior Executives have the broadest powers to act under any circumstances in the name of the Company, within the limits of the corporate purpose and subject to the powers that the law expressly grants to Shareholders' Meetings and to the Board of Directors. The Internal Rules of the Board of Directors contain limits on his powers to take certain decisions which, on account of their purpose or their amount, are subject to the prior approval of the Board of Directors.
Thus, the Board of Directors must approve material transactions likely to affect the Group's strategy or significantly change its financial structure or scope of businesses.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Compensation of members of the Board of Directors and executive corporate officers
This report, prepared by the Board of Directors, upon the proposal of the Compensation Committee, in accordance with the provisions of Article L.22-10-8 of the French Commercial Code, presents the total compensation and all benefits in kind paid during fiscal year 2022 to executive corporate officers. It describes and distinguishes between the fixed, variable and exceptional elements that make up that compensation and those benefits as well as the criteria used to calculate them or the circumstances giving rise to them.
In accordance with the provisions of the AFEP-MEDEF Code, compensation paid to executive corporate officers is defined by the Board of Directors based on the proposal of the Compensation Committee. It is presented at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and subject to a binding vote in accordance with Articles 22-10-8 and L. 22-10-34 of the French Commercial Code. The compensation policy is reviewed every year by the Compensation Committee. In its recommendations to the Board of Directors, it proposes a compensation policy in line with the corporate interest and the practices of comparable international groups for similar positions based on a benchmark including CAC 40 and SBF 120 companies. In addition, variable and long-term compensation, when it applies, depends predominantly on quantitative criteria, including for climate-related criteria or, more broadly, on ESG ambitions, which form a significant part of the criteria for these two types of compensation.
In accordance with the recommendations of Article 25.2 of the AFEP-MEDEF Code, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, who is a non-executive corporate officer, does not receive any variable compensation linked to the Company's performance.
The compensation of other executive corporate officers includes:
Strict performance criteria are set for both the variable portion and the long-term incentive portion and maintain a link between the Group's sustainable performance and executive compensation, thus contributing to the Company's strategy and sustainability.
The compensation policies applicable to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer and the Managing Director, from 2023, are discussed in section 3.2.2.
Mr. Laurent Burelle, Chairman of the Board of Directors, received an annual fixed compensation of €950,000.
The annual fixed compensation of Mr. Laurent Favre. Chief Executive Officer, amounted to €1,000,760 for fiscal year 2022. In addition to this annual fixed compensation, an annual benefit in kind is valued at €14.073.
The annual fixed compensation of Ms. Félicie Burelle, Managing Director, amounted to €650.760 for the period in question, plus an annual benefit in kind valued at an amount of €11,814.
It should be noted that Mr. Laurent Burelle. Chairman of the Board of Directors, does not receive any variable compensation for his duties.
The base amount of the annual variable compensation of Mr. Laurent Favre amounts to €1,100,000 if the targets are achieved at 100%. It can vary between 80% and 120% of this amount, depending on the achievement of the targets set by the Board of Directors. The variable compensation can thus vary between €880,000 if the criteria are 80% achieved and €1,320,000 if the criteria are 120% achieved.
The quantifiable part of the criteria therefore represents 64% and the qualitative part 36%. The trigger threshold of 80% is assessed for each of the criteria; below this threshold, the criterion is not met and the corresponding share of compensation is not awarded. If achievement of a criterion is assessed at above 120%, the criterion weighting remains 120%. Outperformance on one criterion is not transferable to another criterion. Thus, in total, the variable compensation cannot exceed 120% of the amount set at €1,100,000 for the Chief Executive Officer in 2022.
At its meeting of February 21, 2023, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee:

Compensation of members of the Board of Directors and executive corporate officers
neutrality on scopes 1 and 2 by 2025, 100% for the gender equality objective for governing bodies in line with the provisions of the French Rixain law and the company-specific objectives, and 85% for the objective relating to the deployment of the compliance program within the Group in order to take into account both completed and ongoing actions to integrate the entities acquired in 2022.
Consequently, the Board of Directors decided that the percentage of variable compensation awarded to Mr. Laurent Favre in respect of fiscal year 2022 would be 102.5%.
The amount of the variable portion for fiscal year 2022 is therefore €1,127,775. It will only be paid to Mr. Laurent Favre if the shareholders vote in favor at the General Meeting of Shareholders of April 26, 2023.
The base amount of the annual variable compensation of Félicie Burelle amounts to €600,000 if the targets are achieved at 100%. It can vary between 80% and 120% of this amount, depending on the achievement of the targets set by the Board of Directors. The variable compensation can thus vary between €480.000 if the criteria are 80% achieved and €720,000 if the criteria are 120% achieved.
The quantifiable part of the criteria therefore represents 64% and the qualitative part 36%. The trigger threshold of 80% is assessed for each of the criteria; below this threshold, the criterion is not met and the corresponding share of compensation is not awarded. If achievement of a criterion is assessed at above 120%, the criterion weighting remains 120%. Outperformance on one criterion is not transferable to another criterion. Thus, in total, the variable compensation cannot exceed 120% of the amount set at €650.000 for the Managing Director in 2022.
At its meeting of February 21, 2023, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee:
Consequently, the Board of Directors decided that the percentage of variable compensation awarded to Ms. Félicie Burelle in respect of fiscal year 2022 would be 102.5%.
The amount of the variable portion for fiscal vear 2022 is therefore €615,150. It will only be paid to Ms. Félicie Burelle subject to the favorable vote of the shareholders at the General Meeting of Shareholders of April 26, 2023
The Compensation Committee, in accordance with the recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF Code, which aim to ensure the long-term action of senior managers, has recommended to the Board of Directors that incentive compensation awarded to the executive corporate officers should be subject to strict performance conditions comparable to those of other beneficiaries.
Mr. Laurent Burelle was not granted any performance shares in respect of 2022 in accordance with the compensation policy which stipulates that the compensation of the Chairman of the Board of Directors does not include any variable compensation or any long-term incentive scheme.
On the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors' meeting of February 17, 2022 decided to award 57,361 performance shares to Mr. Laurent Favre with respect to fiscal year 2022.
On the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors' meeting of February 17, 2022 decided to award 38,241 performance shares to Ms. Félicie Burelle with respect to fiscal year 2022

The detailed characteristics and performance conditions of this performance share plan are set out in section 3.2.3.
Burelle SA and Plastic Omnium Gestion, a subsidiary of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE. have set up supplementary pension plans for some of their employees and executive corporate officers.

These are defined-benefit plans (Article 39 of the French General Tax Code), the rights of which are subject to the completion of the career of each participant in the Group. These plans fall under Article L. 137-11 of the French Social Security Code and have been declared to the URSSAF under the option Tax at 24% on contributions to the insurance contract.
In accordance with the provisions of Order no. 2019-697 of July 3, 2019, these plans were closed to new members as of July 4, 2019 and frozen from January 1, 2020. In December 2021, the new plans in accordance with Article L. 137-11-2 of the French Social Security Code, described below, were set up, the Board of Directors having authorized these plans.
Following the closure and freezing of the defined-benefit plans described above (Article L. 137-11), defined-benefit pension plans were put in place by Burelle SA and Plastic Omnium Gestion at the end of 2021 with a retroactive effective date of January 1, 2020.
These pension plans, which fall under the certain rights regimes, in which pension rights are not conditional upon the completion of the employee's career with the Group, are covered by Article L, 137-11-2 of the French Social Security Code.
The main features of these two plans are presented in the table below.
The beneficiaries of these plans are employees of Burelle SA and Plastic Omnium Gestion whose employment corresponds to coefficient 940 of the National Collective Agreement for the Plastics Industry, subject to being under the age of 60 on January 1, 2020 and being more than two years from the minimum retirement age for social security pensions referred to in Article L. 161-17-2 of the French Social Security Code (i.e. as at this date, 62 years old). Directors may benefit from this supplementary pension plan provided they comply with the provisions of Articles L. 22-10-8 and R. 22-10-14, II of the French Commercial Code.
For directors and employees whose compensation, within the meaning of Article L. 242-1 of the French Social Security Code, is greater than eight times the amount of the social security ceiling, the acquisition of annual rights is subject to compliance with performance conditions as defined in the regulations of the said plan.
The plans are fully funded by Burelle SA and Plastic Omnium Gestion, which took out an insurance policy on December 1, 2021, meeting the requirements of securing, on the one hand, rights currently vesting, and on the other hand, annuities paid out, under European Union law

€1,127,775 | During the meeting of February 21, 2023, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, determined and set the amount of the variable compensation (quantifiable and qualitative parts) of Laurent Favre with respect to fiscal year 2022 at €1,127,775. The Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, decided to define the methods for calculating the variable compensation as follows: · weighting of 64% for the quantifiable part and 36% for the qualitative part, |
| • variable part target for 2022 (in the event of the achievement of the objectives set by the Board of Directors) set at €1,100,000. |
|||
| In application of these methods and the achievement of the criteria used to calculate the variable portion, the amount of the variable portion for 2022 was determined as follows: |
|||
| For the quantifiable part (64%), the parameters used are: · the level of free cash-flow (20%), |
|||
| · the level of net profit (loss) - attributable to owners of the parent (15%), | |||
| · the level of the operating margin (20%), and | |||
| · ESG criteria relating to safety at work, gender diversity in management bodies, and the reduction of CO2 emissions (9%). |
|||
| For the qualitative part (36%), the following parameters were used: · the development of the Group's Digital and Innovation strategy, anticipating market changes by deploying the Hydrogen strategy and ensuring operational excellence (15%) |
|||
| · the identification of acquisition opportunities and taking strategic decisions likely to impact the development of the Group's activities (15%) |
|||
| · qualitative ESG criteria relating to the Group's transformation towards carbon neutrality, the implementation of the compliance policy, and the rollout of the Plastic Omnium Group's purpose (6%). |
|||
| At its meeting of February 21, 2023, the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee: · noted that the achievement rate of the financial criteria was 108.5%, broken down as follows: free cash-flow: 103.5%, net profit (loss) attributable to owners of the parent company: 120%, operating margin: 102%; |
|||
| · decided that the achievement rate for the qualitative criteria met 97.5% of expectations and targets; |
|||
| · the achievement of ESG criteria was approved at 92%. | |||
| Overall achievement rate taking into account the weighting of the various criteria: 102 5%. |
|||
| The variable portion for 2022 thus amounts to €1,127,775 and will only be paid to Laurent Favre subject to the favorable vote of shareholders at the General Meeting of Shareholders of April 26, 2023. |

In accordance with Article L.22-10-9 of the French Commercial Code, the following table presents changes, starting in 2018, in the equity ratio between the compensation paid to executive corporate officers and the average and median compensation paid to Plastic Omnium employees in France.
The ratios are usually compared to the Group's performance. However, the impact of the Covid-19 health crisis on the Group's performance makes the change in the equity ratio difficult to compare.
The payroll taken into account increased by 4.9% during the same period of comparison. However, there was an increase in employee savings linked to the 2021 performance, whereas the health crisis had led to a significant decrease in this item in 2021 in respect of 2020 performance.
The average compensation of employees located in France and taken into account to produce this equity ratio rose from €57,710 in 2018 to €63.849 in 2022, an increase of 10.6%.
The ratios were calculated using the following methodology:
· scope of legal entities in France excluding the companies of the Environment Division sold in 2018; excluding, as not significant, the French entity of the Lighting Division formed on October 6, 2022 as well as the workforce of the French e-Power companies acquired in August 2022;
It should be noted that Mr. Laurent Favre and Ms. Félicie Burelle have been directors since January 1, 2020. Mr. Laurent Burelle was Chairman and CEO until December 31, 2019; and has been Chairman of the Board of Directors since January 1, 2020,

The compensation of executive corporate officers must reflect the Company's strategy and be competitive in order to attract, motivate and retain the best talents in the highest positions of the Company.
This compensation is assessed on an overall basis, by taking into account all of its components.
The fixed portion is defined according to the role, experience and reference market of the executive corporate officer, having regard in particular to the compensation granted to executive corporate officers of groups similar in size and development are comparable to that of the Plastic Omnium Group. It is set by the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Appointments Committee
The annual variable compensation is intended to reflect the executive corporate officer's personal contribution to the development of the Group and the improvement of its results. It is balanced with respect to the fixed portion decided by the Board of Directors and is between 80% and 120% of the fixed portion depending on whether or not previously set targets have been achieved or exceeded.
To assess the competitiveness of this compensation, a consistent and stable reference panel is defined by the Compensation Committee. It is made up of French and international companies with a significant global position. These companies are located in comparable markets, being, within in the automotive sector, direct competitors of the Plastic Omnium Group, or operate in the broader automotive industry, for all or part of their business. It is reviewed each year by the Compensation Committee in order to verify its relevance and is subject to change, in particular to take into account changes in the structure or business of the companies selected.
The variable compensation of executive corporate officers must include a predominant quantitative part subject to performance conditions with assessment periods adapted to the horizon of each of these objectives.
The Board of Directors has established the compensation policy applicable to executive corporate officers in the interests of the Company, in order to ensure the Company's long-term sustainability and development.
The compensation policy applied to executive corporate officers is directly linked to the Group's strategy. It promotes harmonious, regular and sustainable growth, both in the short and long term. The aim of the Board of Directors is to encourage Senior Executives to maximize the performance of each fiscal year, and also ensure its repetition and regularity.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Compensation of members of the Board of Directors and executive corporate officers
The Board of Directors chooses to directly correlate the performance of the executive corporate officer with that of the Company. These performance criteria make it possible to assess the Plastic Omnium Group's performance through internal performance indicators and external growth indicators, The objectives selected generate long-term value. The choice of various operational financial criteria aims to encourage balanced and sustainable growth. The ESG criteria are an integral part of this analysis, and include quantitative criteria related to climate objectives (see below).
These objectives must also encourage the executive corporate officer to adapt the Group's strategy to the transformations of the automotive industry, in particular the digital transformation and the shift towards less carbon-intensive mobility
Compensation must promote a long-term development approach, in line with the Group's permanent values, reflected in its purpose. For many years, Plastic Omnium, as part of its CSR ambitions, set out in the "Act for All" program, has permanently linked the issues of sustainable performance, safety and well-being at work to the compensation of its executive corporate officers. As a company committed over the long term to innovative and sustainable mobility, with a majority family shareholder, Plastic Omnium intends to maintain this link between the annual variable compensation and the long-term compensation of its executive corporate officers and the ESG objectives, namely:
In this context, ambitious and quantified objectives guide the definition of the variable and long-term compensation of executive corporate officers, in particular:
In addition to these elements having a significant impact on the Company's executive compensation, Plastic Omnium pays particular attention to the well-being at work and the employment of seniors.
With regard to the compensation of the executive corporate officers (Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director), in accordance with the AFEP-MEDEF code to which Plastic Omnium refers, the objectives and the degree of achievement of each one are assessed each year by the Compensation Committee.
For 2023, the weighting of ESG criteria in the definition of compensation has been strengthened. These criteria account for 20% of the total variable compensation (15% in 2022). Within these criteria, the share of quantifiable criteria continue to be the much larger part. Thus, 80% of the ESG criteria are quantifiable, the "climate" criterion only includes quantifiable objectives, in application of Plastic Omnium's "carbon neutrality" roadmap
Similarly, the allocation of performance shares to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director is subject to compliance with two ESG criteria. The performance shares, whose final grant would take place in 2026, are thus subject, in addition to the applicable quantifiable financial objectives, to the achievement in 2025 of the carbon neutrality objective and the gender diversity targets in governing bodies, i.e. 25% of managers being women by 2025.
Compensation is defined annually in such a way as to ensure the proper application of the policy and rules set by the Board of Directors. The latter is based on the work and recommendations of the Compensation Committee, which at December 31, 2022 was composed of 3 directors, 2 of whom are independent directors. Ms. Amandine Chaffois, employee director, has been a member of the Compensation Committee since January 1, 2023. The Committee has the information it needs to prepare its recommendations and in particular, to assess the performance of the executive corporate officers with regard to the short, medium and long-term objectives.
The Compensation Committee has all the internal information it needs to perform its duties. This information enables it to assess the performance of the Group and of its executive directors, both economically and in non-financial matters. The annual, economic and financial results of the Group are presented each year to the Compensation Committee in the month of February and serve as a basis to assess the financial performance criteria for the variable compensation of executive corporate officers.
The principles of the Human Resources policy are regularly presented to the members of this Committee or at Board meetings. The directors are able to verify the consistency between the compensation of the executive corporate officers and the compensation and employment conditions of the Group's employees.
The committee and the Board may also deepen their assessment of the Company's performance by any means that they choose, for example by calling upon the Group's main executive corporate officers to provide information, in conjunction with Senior Executives.
Recommendations are made to the Board of Directors on the basis of this work, and which then collectively takes decisions relating to the determination of the compensation of executive corporate officers.
When a new member of the Board of Directors is appointed or co-opted during the fiscal vear. the Board discusses the elements of compensation to be granted, in accordance with the compensation policy previously voted by the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The Compensation Committee carefully analyzes the texts and reports on the compensation of executive corporate officers, in particular the report on corporate governance and the compensation of the executives of listed companies of the French Financial Markets Authority, as well as the report of the High Authority on Corporate Governance. It complies with the recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF Corporate Governance Code for listed companies, to which Plastic Omnium refers.
Compensation of members of the Board of Directors and executive corporate officers
It is attentive to the observations of investors and strives to take them into account, while maintaining the consistency of the compensation policy decided by the Board of Directors and subject to the constraints related to the confidentiality of information.
The Compensation Committee's work is also based on an international panel of leading global companies, which serves as a reference for comparative compensation studies. This panel is composed of French and international companies, occupying a leading global position. These companies are located in similar markets, either directly competing with Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE or operating in the wider automotive market, for all or part of their activities.
It is on this basis that recommendations are made to the Board of Directors, which then collectively makes its decisions concerning the compensation of executive corporate officers, in accordance with the compensation policy approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders.
Article L.22-10-8 of the French Commercial Code and the order of November 27, 2019, issued in application of the Pacte law, give companies the chance to include in their compensation policy any exemptions in the event of exceptional circumstances. Failing this, the Board of Directors would be unable to grant an element of compensation not provided for in the compensation policy previously approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders, even though this decision could be necessary in view of these exceptional circumstances. It is specified that this exemption can only be temporary while awaiting the approval of the modified compensation policy by the next General Meeting of Shareholders; it would be duly justified and in accordance with the Company's interests.
If necessary, the modification of the compensation policy in the light of exceptional circumstances would be decided by the Board of Directors on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. Thus, for example, the recruitment of a new executive corporate officer under unforeseen conditions could require the temporary modification of certain existing compensation elements or the proposal of new compensation elements.
It could also be necessary to modify the performance conditions governing the acquisition of all or part of the existing compensation components in the event of exceptional circumstances resulting in particular from a significant change in the scope of the Group following a merger transaction, a sale, acquisition, or creation of a significant new business, a change in accounting method or a major event affecting the markets on the Group's business segment
The Board of Directors of February 21, 2023, in accordance with the recommendation of the AFEP-MEDEF Code. proposes that the General Meeting of Shareholders of April 26. 2023 determine the compensation of the Chairman of the Board of Directors who does not assume the General Management, by defining the fixed annual compensation, excluding any variable compensation of allocation of performance shares.
Mr. Laurent Burelle benefits from insurance cover and healthcare costs.
The compensation of the Chairman of the Board of Directors is determined on the basis of the following items:
lt is essential for the Board of Directors to be able to count on a committed, experienced and competent Chairman such as Mr. Laurent Burelle, recognized for his involvement in governance matters and in relations with stakeholders. Mr. Laurent Burelle, who has chaired the Board of Directors since 2001, has already raised the governance of Compagnie Plastic Omnium SE to an exemplary level while serving as Chief Executive Officer until December 31, 2019. The Board wishes to highlight the expertise of Mr. Laurent Burelle, whose in-depth knowledge of the Company, its environment and its strategic challenges represents a major asset.
The compensation of Mr. Laurent Burelle corresponds to the Board's ambition to ensure the continuity of its work and enable its development.
The Board of Directors also took into account the extensive missions that it decided to entrust to Mr. Laurent Burelle in his capacity as Chairman of the Board of Directors.
On the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors of February 21, 2023 proposes that the General Meeting of Shareholders maintain the fixed annual compensation of Mr. Laurent Burelle, Chairman of the Board, at €950,000.

The compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Managing Director consists of fixed compensation, variable compensation and the allocation of performance shares.
It does not include any exceptional items.
The Board of Directors determines the various components of this compensation, being attentive to the necessary balance between each of
them. Each component of compensation corresponds to a defined and clearly stated objective. The various components of compensation form a balanced package with a breakdown of approximately:

The fixed compensation should reflect the responsibilities of the executive corporate officer, his or her level of experience and skills.
The fixed compensation serves as the basis for determining the maximum percentage of the target variable compensation.
In accordance with the principles set out above, the fixed compensation of the Chief Executive Officer in respect of 2023 amounts to €1,100,000 for the full year, compared with €1,000 000 for fiscal year 2022. That of the Managing Director in respect of 2023 amounts to €750,000 for the full year, compared with €650,000 for fiscal year 2022,
The annual variable compensation represents, at target, €1,200,000 for 100% achievement of the objectives set for Mr. Laurent Favre, and €750,000 for 100% achievement of the objectives set for Ms. Félicie Burelle. It may vary between 80% and 120% of the target set (respectively €1,200,000 for Mr. Laurent Favre and €750,000 for Ms. Félicie Burelle) depending on the level of achievement of the objectives. If achievement is below 80%, no variable compensation is paid, the percentage of achievement being assessed for each criterion. The absolute maximum, for each criterion and for the total variable compensation, is 120%. Thus, if the objectives are more than 120% achieved, the achievement rate will be 120%, making it possible to compensate for outperformance while limiting the short-term incentive.
As the principle is not to encourage inappropriate risk taking, the annual variable compensation remains reasonable compared to the fixed compensation
Variable compensation is designed to align the compensation of the executive corporate officer with the Group's annual performance and to promote the implementation of its strategy year after year.
It is determined according to specific performance assessment criteria determined by the Board of Directors
These criteria are financial, non-financial and qualitative.
The financial and non-financial criteria are simple and quantifiable. Thev represent a predominant portion of the annual variable compensation.
The weighting of each criterion as well as the objectives to be achieved are set at the beginning of the year in question and communicated to the executive corporate officer.
These criteria are as follows
Compensation of members of the Board of Directors and executive corporate officers
The quantifiable objectives for determining the variable portion of the compensation due in respect of fiscal year 2023 were defined in relation to the Group's target forecasts presented to the Board of Directors on December 7, 2022.
Quantifiable, financial (70%) and non-financial (13%) criteria represent 83% of annual variable compensation.

It aims to encourage the executive corporate officer to take action in the long term and to build loyalty and promote the alignment of their interests with the corporate interest and the interests of shareholders. To this end, the vesting of shares is subject to performance conditions that are recognized at the end of a vesting period of three vears from the grant date.

These awards have a dual purpose:

In accordance with the legal provisions and on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors adopted a charter relating to the identification and evaluation of related party agreements and free agreements whose purpose is to specify the methodology and criteria to be applied for the classification of related-party agreements and commitments relating to current agreements and entered into under arm's length conditions by the Company and fulfilling these conditions. It may be amended at any time by the Board of Directors, in particular to take into account any legislative and regulatory changes.
In accordance with the law, agreements entered into between the persons referred to in Article L.225-38 of the French Commercial Code (agreement entered into directly or through an intermediary between the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, one of its Managing Directors, one of its directors, one of its shareholders holding a fraction of the voting rights greater than 10% or, in the case of a corporate shareholder, the Company controlling it within the meaning of Article L.233-3 of the French Commercial Code), relating to current agreements and entered into under arm's length conditions, are not subject to prior authorization by the Board of Directors.
The charter provides for the following procedure: the Legal and Financial Departments, informed of any draft agreement that may be qualified as a related-party agreement or a current agreement, are responsible for analyzing the characteristics of said agreement and thus submitting it either to the authorization and control procedure provided for related-party agreements, or classifying it as an agreement relating to ordinary transactions concluded under arm's length conditions. This procedure also provides for an annual review by the Audit Committee of agreements classified as current transactions entered into under arm's length conditions based on the accounting entries recorded during the previous fiscal year. This review is carried out in the light of the criteria specified in the charter enabling a current agreement to be classified as under arm's length conditions.
Each year, the Audit Committee also examines the relevance of the criteria used to classify a current agreement entered into under arm's length conditions, specified in the charter.
The Audit Committee reports on its work to the Board of Directors, which ensures, on the basis of these reports, that the aforementioned agreements relating to day to-day transactions and entered into under arm's length conditions meet these conditions. In this context, the Board of Directors may either confirm the classification as a current agreement entered into under arm's length conditions, or consider that the agreement in question must be subject to the related-party agreement procedure and therefore be subject to its ratification. In compliance with the regulations, the persons directly or indirectly interested in one of the aforementioned agreements do not take part in the discussions or in the decision-making relating to their assessment.
Pursuant to Article L.22-10-10, 2 of the French Commercial Code, concerning fiscal year 2022, the work of the Audit Committee confirmed that all agreements entered into or renewed by the signatories during this fiscal year related to current transactions and were concluded under arm's length conditions, or were duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to their conclusion or renewal.
