During the session, the following presentations were given to the shareholders:

Address by the Chairman of the Board of Directors

Mr Jérôme Brunel, Chairman of the Board of Directors, introduced the presentations sequence with an overview of the Company's general economic climate, which shows encouraging signs, while the context remains uncertain.

He covered the Company's adapted profile, notably enabling it to cope with the increase in the cost of debt, as well as the significant work accomplished by the Board of Directors and Gecina's teams to effectively capitalize on the Company's leading assets.

In terms of environmental responsibility, he reminded participants that a "Say on Climate" resolution, concerning the Company's decarbonization strategy, was submitted to be voted on by the shareholders. This marks a significant step forward with the Company's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and making a positive contribution to the fight against climate change.

Strategic and operational vision

Mr Beñat Ortega, Chief Executive Officer, then presented the Company's strategic and operational vision, notably looking at the key elements from the 2023 full-year results, reflecting a solid operational performance.

He then presented the Company's CSR performance and strategy, detailing Gecina's climate ambition concerning the decarbonization

of its greenhouse gas emissions for its buildings in operation by 2030.

Financial performances in 2023

Mr Nicolas Dutreuil, Deputy CEO in charge of Finance, presented Gecina's financial performances and results for 2023.

Statutory auditors' reports

The Company's statutory auditors presented their report to the General Meeting, covering their work concerning:

  • the control of the annual and consolidated financial statements
  • the proposed payment of an interim dividend for 2023
  • the regulated agreements
  • the financial delegations
  • the capital increase reserved for employees
  • the awards of performance shares
  • the capital reduction

The statutory auditors did not make any observations in their reports and issued a certification, without any reservations, of the Company's annual and consolidated financial statements.

Say on pay

Ms Dominique Dudan, Chairwoman of the Governance, Appointments and Compensation Committee, presented the items of compensation for the corporate officers for 2023, as well as the elements from the compensation policy for corporate officers for 2024, as presented in section

Document and in the general meeting brochure.

Presentation of the resolutions

Mr Frédéric Vern, General Secretary, presented a summary of each of the resolutions submitted to be voted on by the shareholders.

Answers to shareholders' questions

The Company received written questions from two shareholders.

To summarize, these written questions concerned:

  • The minimum number of shares to be held for a Director and the potential creation of an advisory committee for individual shareholders

In its response, the Board of Directors reminded participants that, in accordance with the provisions from the bylaws, each Director must own one share; in addition, the Board of Directors' rules of procedure require each Director receiving compensation in this respect to own at least 291 shares.

With regard to the advisory committee for individual shareholders, the Board of Directors indicated that there were no plans at this stage to create an advisory committee, while noting that the Company has set up a shareholder club for instance.

  • Amendment of the resolutions that aim to waive preferential subscription rights

In its response, the Board of Directors reminded participants that the request to renew the various delegations and authorizations relating to financial operations is intended to enable the Board of Directors to have flexibility for its choice of potential issues. Some of these resolutions provide for the possibility to waive preferential subscription rights, which may make it possible to achieve a larger volume of capital thanks to more favorable conditions for issues.

  • The accessibility of Gecina's portfolio for all forms of disabilities and the Company's employment policy for staff with disabilities

In its response, the Board of Directors indicated that 100% of the portfolio's communal areas, based on accessibility criteria, are compliant with the French employment code (Code du travail) or construction and residential code (Code de la construction et de l'habitation) which govern them. Out of all the establishments open to the

public, more than 90% are compliant or about to be brought into line, while the remaining properties are currently subject to work to ensure compliance.

The Board of Directors reminded participants that the integration of employees with disabilities is a core pillar of the Group's employment policy and mentioned the various actions carried out for several years by the Company and its Foundation, as well as the measures rolled out to support employees with disabilities.

  • The student residence business, its profitability and the potential possibility of selling this portfolio

The Board of Directors' response indicated that the student residence business is back up to occupancy levels that are identical to those seen before Covid. The portfolio's performance is in line with the Group's expectations.

With regard to a sale, participants were reminded that for all of the Group's assets, the Company's opportunistic approach and its rationale as a real estate company lead it to review each possible scenario for each building, while noting that the Company is not under any constraints to buy or sell.

  • The proceedings underway concerning Mr Jean-Louis Missika and their impact for Gecina

In its response, the Board of Directors reminded participants about the context for the allegations and the role of Mr Jean-Louis Missika concerned by an investigation for the unlawful acquisition of an interest when he was Chairman of Gecina's Advisory Committee, which does not have any specific powers and met on two occasions between April and November 2021.

In the context of this investigation, the National Financial Prosecutor's Office has decided to prosecute the Company for complicity and concealment of the unlawful acquisition of an interest. Gecina's premises were searched in June 2022 and it fully cooperated with the Judicial Police. The Company will vigorously defend itself against these unfounded charges and will take all necessary measures to handle this situation with the seriousness and diligence it requires.

  • Gecina's turnover and its impact on the
    Company

In its response, the Board of Directors indicated that the Company has experienced an increase in its turnover trend in line with other companies from the real estate sector, linked to a particularly dynamic job market since 2022 among other factors. Gecina has capitalized on this opening up of the market to implement an active skills management policy and recruited new talents. However, the average seniority of employees on permanent contracts was 12 years at the end of 2023, enabling knowledge to be transferred between generations and supporting the portfolio's effective management over time.

  • The status of the tenant Solocal and the departure of the tenant Engie announced for the La Défense building

In its response, the Board of Directors confirmed that the Company monitors changes in the health of all its tenants.

With regard to the Engie group's departure from the La Défense building, it indicated that several options can be considered and the various potential scenarios are continuing to be looked into, particularly in terms of the building's characteristics, which offer a number of opportunities.

Some shareholders then submitted questions during the session or using the chat feature offered with the General Meeting webcast. To summarize, these exchanges primarily concerned:

  • The potential buyout of a rival listed real estate company and the sale price for the 101 Champs-Elysées building

Participants were reminded that the Company is not under any constraints to buy or sell. The Company's financial solidity enables it to be opportunistic. Moreover, any operation like this would be considered in relation to the shareholders' interests.

With regard to the sale of the 101 Champs-Elysées building, it was indicated that, at the buyer's request, the sale price has not been published. However, the Company communicated on the

overall volume of sales completed in 2023, which came to 1.3 billion euros.

  • The Chief Executive Officer's compensation policy for 2024 and the criteria that led to the proposal to increase his fixed compensation

It was indicated that an in-depth review of the Chief Executive Officer's compensation was carried out by the Governance, Appointments and Compensation Committee, supported by the work of an independent consulting firm. The results of the comparability study showed that the Chief Executive Officer's fixed salary was uncorrelated and lower than the average and median levels for the companies benchmarked.

The Board of Directors, as recommended by the Governance, Appointments and Compensation Committee, considered, taking into account the Chief Executive Officer's skills, his commitment to the Company's development and the results achieved in a context of a deep crisis, that it was necessary to adjust his fixed compensation, which had not been increased since 2018, in line with the market.

  • Potential new requirements in terms of social housing, environmental criteria or urban planning

A strengthening of societal demands among all of the Group's stakeholders has been confirmed. Gecina has strong commitments in all of these areas, which have already been anticipated in certain cases. For example, it was indicated that social housing is included in various Group residences, such as the Ville d'Avray residence or a student residence in Paris' 15th arrondissement.

  • Existence of real estate projects using geothermal energy

The response indicated that the Company is constantly looking to develop innovation within its real estate projects. Two assets from the portfolio have been developed with geothermal systems and other projects are currently being looked into, particularly for residential assets, using dry geothermal energy, a method that makes it possible to optimize land use, in a closed loop system, without extracting water from an aquifer.
