Comunicato Successivo
Amaury Hendrickx sostituirebbe Guido Padovano, dimessosi per consentire un rinnovo graduale dei mandati dei memrbi del Consiglio di Vigilanza.
La nomina di Françoise Gri quale membro indipendente farebbe aumentare il numero di membri indipendenti, che passerebbero a quattro, ovvero un terzo del Consiglio Rexel, che avrebbe così 12 membri.
The shareholders' meeting called for May 20, 2010 will also be asked to incorporate in Rexel's by-laws the principle of the staggered renewal of the terms of office of the members of the Supervisory Board and to reduce their terms of office from five years to four years.
The Management Board's proposal to the May 20, 2010, shareholders' meeting of these two appointments and of the change to the by-laws reflects Rexel's commitment to comply with the principles and best practices set out in the AFEP-MEDEF corporate governance code, in terms of transparency, disclosure and good governance. In 2009, the Board also asked an independent consulting firm, Ricol Lasteyrie, to assess its organization and functioning. The consultants' report concluded that the Board's work, as well as the information provided to its members, was of high quality.
