GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING, JUNE 2, 2022

 

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
69.43% of the outstanding shares and all resolutions were adopted.

In particular, Mr. Pierre-André de Chalendar's term of office was renewed by
the General Shareholders' Meeting by a majority of nearly 95% and the Board of
Directors reappointed him as Chairman of the Board of Directors, in accordance
with the statement expressed in the press release of March 25, 2022. As a
reminder, Pierre-André de Chalendar has indicated to the Board of Directors
that he would serve as Chairman for a maximum period of two years, i.e. until
the June 2024 General Meeting at the latest.

In addition, the General Shareholders' Meeting held today ratified the
co-optation of Ms. Lina Ghotmeh and approved the appointment of Mr. Thierry
Delaporte.

As Ms. Anne-Marie Idrac reached the age limit, her term of office expired at
the end of the General Shareholders' Meeting. During the years of her term,
the experience and judgment of Ms. Anne-Marie Idrac have contributed greatly
to the discussions and decisions of the Board. The Board of Directors has
decided to appoint Mr. Jean-François Cirelli as Chairman of the Nomination
and Remuneration Committee to succeed her.

The Board of Directors of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain is composed of 14 members
