Resolution of Extraordinary General Meeting held on January, 24th 2020

Version:

First (1st)/ Date of approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders of FOURLIS HOLDINGS S.A.

24.1.2020

Purpose:

This Policy concerns the members of the Board of Directors (BoD) of FOURLIS HOLDINGS S.A., and it was

conducted according to the EU Directive on the shareholders' rights (EU Directive 2017/828 issued by the

European Parliament and the Council dated 17 May 2017), as this has been incorporated in the Greek

legislation with L.4548/2018.

The Remuneration Policy (hereinafter the Policy) contributes in the business strategy and in the long-

term interests and the viability of the company, and specifies the method of contribution.

It defines in detail both the existing rights of the members of the Board of Directors and the obligations

of the Company towards them, and the terms under which the remuneration will be provided in the

future.

To whom the Policy concerns:

Existing members of the Board of Directors and/or new members of the Board of Directors of the Company during its term. In the Board of Directors are included the General Director as well as his deputy, if any, as defined in article 110 of L.4548/2018.

Term:

The present policy is valid for four (4) years, unless it is revised and/or amended earlier by a decision of

the General Meeting of the Shareholders of FOURLIS HOLDINGS SA.

The Committee on Nominations and Remunerations shall examine on a yearly basis if the Policy

continues to be compatible with the business strategy of the Company or if the Committee should

propose its amendments to the Board of Directors. Every four (4) years or earlier if there is a need for an

amendment, after a proposal of the Committee, the Board of Directors shall submit any changes of

Policy that it deems as appropriate to the General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company for

approval.

General Information:

The Remuneration Policy takes into account the applicable laws, the good corporate governance

policies, the Greek Code of Corporate Governance, the Articles of Association and the Internal Regulation

for the Organization of the Company. The Policy acknowledges the existing rights and obligations of the

members of the Board of Directors and specifies the terms under which the future remuneration may be

granted to the existing or/and new members of the Board of Directors during the term of their duty.

No member of the Board of Directors takes decisions or is responsible for his own remuneration. The

Committee on Nominations and Remuneration shall ensure that no person shall be present at the

discussion of its remuneration.

The Policy is uploaded in the webpage of the Company: www.fourlis.gr

1. How the Policy contributes in the business strategy, the long-term interests and the viability of the Company

The Company pays both the executive and the non-executive members of the Board of Directors taking into account the principle of fair and reasonable remuneration for the best and most appropriate individual for the relevant position considering at the same time the level of responsibility as well as the knowledge and the experience required in order to meet the expectations, ensuring at the same time its short-term and long-term business plan, so that it can continue to create value for the customers, the shareholders, the employees and the economy of the countries in which it runs its business activities.

Resolution of Extraordinary General Meeting held on January, 24th 2020

The Remuneration Policy of the executive members of the Board of Directors contributes in the business strategy, the long-term interests and the viability of the Company:

  • Providing a fair and proper level of a standard fixed remuneration which allows the executive members to focus on the creation of a viable long-term value.
  • Balancing the short-term and the long-term remuneration in order to be ensured that short-term goals which will lead long-term to the creation of a value are targeted.
  • Offering short-term variable remuneration with performance criteria which harmonize the interests of the executive member to the interests of the shareholders.
  • Including long-term variable remuneration against titles with long-term performance criteria, which contribute in the creation of a value.

The Policy does not provide for variable remuneration for the non-executive members of the Board of Directors so that it can be guaranteed that there is no conflict of interests in decision-taking of the non-executive members and in their option to doubt the decisions of the Board of Directors when these result in risk-taking by the Company.

2. Remuneration Policy for the executive members of the Board of Directors

The Remuneration Policy of the Executive members of the Board of Directors, apart from those mentioned in Section 1, also takes into account other significant factors for the determination of the remunerations such as the knowledge and the experience required for the achievement of the objectives of the Business plan of the Company.

The Committee on Nominations and Remunerations and the Board of Directors are informed regularly about the structure of the remuneration and the policies followed inside the Company, as well as about the market trends in the specific issue (annual researches on remuneration and benefits). These data are considered upon revision of the Policy.

3. Remuneration Policy of the non-executive members of the Board of Directors

In the determination of the remuneration level of the non-executive members of the Board of Directors, the market practice is taken into account, regarding the companies of a similar size on the basis of the stock market value, revenues, profits, complexity, structure and international dimension.

The non-executive members of the Board of Directors receive the basic remuneration and are paid additional remuneration in order to exercise the duty of presiding at the committees. The non-executive members of the Board of Directors do not have a participation right in any program for the provision of incentives.

To the non-executive members of the Board of Directors a remuneration is paid, which is standard and fixed and covers the time required for the exercise and execution of their duties. The said standard remunerations cover the attendance time in up to five (5) meetings of the Board of Directors and in up to five (5) meetings of the Committees of the Board of Directors including the time for transfers and preparation.

The maximum amount of the annual total basic remuneration is specified by the Board of Directors after proposal of the Committee on Nominations and Remunerations and is subject to approval by the Annual Ordinary General Meeting of shareholders.

There is no pre-determined level of annual remuneration or increase of remuneration nor a pre-specified maximum level of remuneration.

4. Deviations from the Policy

In extraordinary circumstances the deviation from the Policy is allowed temporarily, whenever this is deemed necessary by the Board of Directors, so that the long-term interests of the Company in their entirety can be served and its viability can be ensured. Any derogation must be examined and approved by the Board of Directors.

5. Employment Contracts

5.1. Term/Duration

The term of duty of the executive members of the Board of Directors may not exceed 5 years, unless, upon proposal of the Committee, the Board of Directors of the Company shall approve a duty for an indefinite period of time.

5

Resolution of Extraordinary General Meeting held on January, 24th 2020

5.2. Fees

The executive members of the Board of Directors, for their participation in the BoD, are not entitled to any other standard fee or other remuneration, apart from their remuneration as executive officers of the Company.

5.3. Hirings and Promotions

The entire remuneration for the hiring of a new executive member of the Board of Directors shall be specified according to the terms of the approved Policy.

5.4. Terms for the termination of the contract

For the executive members of the Board of Directors and as regards their other duties, all provisions of the labour law apply, in relation to the termination of their employment contract.

5.5. Commitments

The Company, upon approval of the present policy, reserves the right to fulfill any contractual obligations already undertaken towards the members of the BoD, before the date of its entry into force.

In case that an officer of another Company of FOURLIS Group moves as an executive member of the Board of Directors of the Company, then - as the policy for "Promotions and movements of the employees within the Group" specifies - continues to enjoy all his employment rights.
