Recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF Corporate Governance Code not complied with by the Company Terms of office of Directors should be staggered so as to avoid replacement of the entire body and to favour a smooth replacement of Directors (paragraph 13.2). When a non-compete agreement is entered into, the Board must incorporate a provision that authorizes it to waive the implementation of this agreement when the Officer leaves (paragraph 23.3). The Board must make a provision to ensure no payment of the non-compete is made once the Officer claims his or her pensions rights. In any event, no benefit can be paid over the age of 65. (paragraph 23.4).

Explanation/Action plan

The Annual General Meeting of April 29, 2016 rejected the 30 th resolution which provided for the directorships to be staggered.

Mr. Frédéric Rose’s non-compete agreement was entered into in July 23, 2008, modified in March 9, 2009, approved by the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting on June 16, 2009 in its 8 th resolution and not modified further. Protecting the interests of the Group and its stakeholders, Technicolor’s Board of Directors did not believe it was necessary to amend Mr. Rose’s non-compete agreement as of now, given his age, reserving the right to amend it in the future.
