Foncière des Régions' Supervisory Board approves the proposed resolutions for
the General Meeting on 31 January 2011
Foncière des Régions' Supervisory Board met today and approved the proposed
resolutions for the General Shareholders' Meeting on 31 January 2011. At this
General Meeting, Foncière des Régions' new governance structure will be put to
the shareholders for approval.
These draft resolutions, which are available on the Foncière des Régions
website (www.foncieredesregions.com), will be disclosed as legally required,
notably in the French official gazette (BALO), over the coming days.
The proposed resolutions incorporate the various principles adopted by the
Supervisory Board on 15 November based on the work of the ad hoc committee set
up by the Board, in addition to the good governance principles recommended by
the AFEP-MEDEF code for unaudited listed companies, including:
- The adoption of a governance structure with a Board of Directors instead
of a dual structure (Supervisory Board and Management Board)
- 10 directors, with 40% independent. The proposed independent directors
whose appointment will be submitted for approval at the General Meeting
are Jean Laurent, Jean-Luc Biamonti, Bertrand de Feydeau and Pierre
Vaquier
- The Board's decisions are taken based on a simple majority.
The adoption of this new governance structure, submitted for approval at the
General Meeting on 31 January 2011, will be followed by a Board of Directors
meeting on the same day, when the following items will notably be adopted:
- The separation of functions for the Chairman of Board of Directors
(non-executive) and the Chief Executive Officer, with Jean Laurent, the
current Chairman of the Supervisory Board, becoming Chairman of the Board
of Directors in the new governance structure, and Christophe Kullmann,
current Chairman of the Management Board, appointed as Chief Executive
Officer.
- The appointment of one or more observers with a consultative vote.
Further to the Supervisory Board meeting, Jean Laurent announced that: "These
draft resolutions represent the culmination of several months' work, led by
the Supervisory Board and an ad hoc committee, chaired by Pierre Vaquier. We
are pleased to be able to submit a governance structure that is consistent
with the AFEP-MEDEF recommendations, as well as a new phase in Foncière des
Régions' development, for approval by our shareholders on 31 January".
