PRESS RELEASE

Paris, June 7, 2018

GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING AND BOARD MEETING OF JUNE 7, 2018: PIERRE-ANDRÉ DE CHALENDAR REAPPOINTED AS CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

The General Shareholders' Meeting of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain was held today in Paris. The shareholders present or represented at the meeting held an aggregate 58.89% of the outstanding shares. All the resolutions were adopted.

The Director's term of office of Mr. Pierre-André de Chalendar was renewed by the General Shareholders' Meeting and the Board reappointed him as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain, in line with its intention announced on November 23, 2017.

The General Shareholders' Meeting also ratified the co-optation of Ms. Dominique Leroy who was appointed as an independent Director by the Board of Directors on November 23, 2017.

Furthermore, the General Shareholders' Meeting approved the amendment to Compagnie de Saint-Gobain's by-laws so that two Directors representing employees be appointed to the Board of Directors irrespective of its size, whereas under the by-laws previously in effect and according to the law, the number of these representatives should have been reduced to one in view of the reduction of the size of the Board of Directors.

After the departure of Mr. Alain Destrain and Mr. Pascal Laï, who left on the expiry of their term of office as employee Directors and made a significant contribution to the discussions and decisions of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain's Board of Directors through their experience and judgement, Ms. Lydie Cortes and Mr. Philippe Thibaudet join the Board of Directors as of today.

Finally, the General Shareholders' Meeting approved the payment of a dividend of €1.30 per share (versus €1.26 for financial year 2016), to be paid wholly in cash. The ex-dividend date will be June 11 and the dividend will be paid as from June 13, 2018.

A webcast of the General Shareholders' Meeting and the results of the vote on each resolution are already available on the Company's website (www.saint-gobain.com).
