Combined General Meeting of Air Liquide Shareholders of April 30, 2024 - Seite 2
The Annual General Meeting renewed the terms of office of two independent Directors, Kim Ann Mink and Monica de Virgiliis, for a period of four years. The term of office of Fatima Tighlaline, Director representing the employees, was renewed by decision of the European Works Council, also for a period of four years from today’s Annual General Meeting. These three terms of office will therefore expire at the close of the 2028 Annual General Meeting (called to approve the financial statements for the financial year 2027).
The Board of Directors thus remains composed of 14 members: 12 members appointed by the Annual General Meeting, the vast majority of whom are independent (83% independent Directors), including five women (42%) and five foreign nationals, and two Directors representing the employees. The composition of the Board offers a diversity of profiles, experience, skills, nationalities and cultures, adapted to the Group’s challenges. It reflects the diversity policy implemented by the Board of Directors.
In addition, the Annual General Meeting voted in favor of the 2023 remuneration components for:
- François Jackow, as Chief Executive Officer;
- Benoît Potier, as Chairman of the Board of Directors;
as well as on the information related to the remunerations of all corporate officers for 2023.

- François Jackow, as Chief Executive Officer;
- Benoît Potier, as Chairman of the Board of Directors;
- and non-executive Directors.
Lastly, on the recommendation of the Appointments and Governance Committee, the Board of Directors held today, renewed the terms of office of Kim Ann Mink, Fatima Tighlaline and Monica de Virgiliis in the relevant Committees. The composition of the Committees thus remains unchanged:
