EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Under the provisions of article L. 225-51-1 of the French Commercial Code, the
Board of Directors opted to dissociate the duties of Chairman of the Board of
Directors from those of Chief Executive Officer, with Mr. Philippe Varin performing
the duties of Chairman of the Board andMr. Philippe Knoche performing the duties
of Chief Executive Officer.
The dissociation of these duties is intended to establish a clear distinction between
the strategic direction, decision-making and control duties of the Chairman of the
Board and the operational and executive duties of the Chief Executive Officer. It is
also intended to improve the functioning of the Board through the presence of a
person dedicated to chairing it, and the balanced distribution of powers limiting the
isolation of a single executive and promoting dialogue among peers.
Executive management procedures are described in Section 3.6 of the report of
the Chairman of the Board of Directors on governance, internal control procedures
and risk management (Appendix 1).
The Chief Executive Officer is supported by an Executive Committee in which all
of the group’s businesses are represented.
This committee examines and discusses all matters pertaining to the group’s
operations and strategy. In principle, it meets each week.
Since July 1, 2016, AREVA has been organized into two operating entities, New
AREVA Holding (hereinafter called “NewCo”) and AREVA NP, each with an
Executive Committee in charge of steering operations.
As of the date this Reference Document was filed, the composition of the Executive Committees was as follows:
