Changes to VINCI's Board of Directors

In 2010, VINCI's Board of Directors innovated by creating the position of Lead Director. This innovation was adopted as a best practice by many other companies listed on the Paris stock market. VINCI's Board of Directors decided at that time to appoint its Vice-Chairman as Lead Director. To date, combining the roles of Vice-Chairman and Lead Director of the Board has been particularly effective for the Group.

Now, in view of VINCI's significant growth, especially in the international arena, and to stakeholder expectations in terms of corporate social responsibility (CSR), as well as to better integrate changes to best practices in the field of corporate governance, VINCI's Board of Directors has decided to separate the roles of Vice-Chairman and Lead Director of the Board.

Consequently, the Vice-Chairman has been assigned duties relative to representing the Group, participating in shareholders' meetings and, more generally, assisting the Chairman; providing his insight to the Board on the Group's operations and organisation; and chairing the Board of Director's Strategy and CSR Committee. Mr Yves-Thibault de Silguy is confirmed in his position as Vice-Chairman.

In addition, the Board has assigned to Mrs Yannick Assouad, Chief Executive Officer of Latécoère and member of the Board, the position of Independent Lead Director. Mrs Assouad will be responsible for ensuring the Board's good corporate governance. She will also chair its Appointments and Corporate Governance Committee.

The internal rules of VINCI's Board of Directors have been revised accordingly. They will be available on www.vinci.com.
