As Robert Brunck will soon reach the age limit set by the company's articles of association for the chairman of the board, CGG's board of directors has unanimously decided to appoint Rémi Dorval, currently a director of the company, to succeed him as chairman of the CGG board of directors. This decision will take effect at the end of the next annual shareholders' meeting which is due to be held on 4 June, subject to the renewal of Rémi Dorval's term of office by this shareholders' meeting. During the same board meeting, CGG's board of directors renewed for a period of three years Jean-Georges Malcor's term of office as Chief Executive Officer, which expires on 4 June, so that he can implement CGG's performance and strategic repositioning plan.
