Criterion 5: Statutory auditor

Not to have been a statutory auditor of the corporation within the previous five years.

Criterion 6: Period of office exceeding 12 years

Not to have been a member of the Supervisory Board for more than 12 years. Loss of the status of independent director occurs on the date of the 12^th anniversary.

Criterion 7: Status of non-executive officer

A non-executive officer cannot be considered independent if he or she received variable compensation in cash or in the form of securities or any compensation linked to the performance of the corporation or group.

Criterion 8: Status of the major shareholder

Directors representing major shareholders of the corporation or its parent Company may be considered independent, provided these shareholders do not take part in the control of the corporation. Nevertheless, beyond a 10% threshold in capital or voting rights, the Board, upon a report from the nominations committee, should systematically review the qualification as independent in the light of the make-up of the corporation's capital and the existence of a potential conflict of interest.

*With the exception of Pierre Pénicaud and Patricia Velay-Borrini, members representing employees who are not taken into account according to the Afep-Medef Code.

The classification as an independent member of the Supervisory Board is reviewed annually by the Nominating Committee, which draws up a report. This report is then passed on to the Supervisory Board, which reviews the position of each member of the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board specifically verifies that its members have no significant business relationship either from a qualitative or quantitative perspective with Publicis Groupe.

At its meeting on March 8, 2023, the Supervisory Board reviewed the independence of its members for the 2022 financial year.
