This business represents sales of € 700 million
out of the total business sold by Faurecia of € 1.9 billion. In organizing the divestiture, Plastic Omnium will
seek the best solution for the future of the sites, the employees and the customers.

The closing of the deal is due to take place on July 29, 2016 for the entire perimeter sold by Faurecia. The
enterprise value is € 665 million. The divestiture commitment made by Plastic Omnium has no impact on the
sale of the business by Faurecia or on the amount of the transaction.

This sale will almost completely eliminate Faurecia’s debt. The Group will thus be able to accelerate
investment in value added technologies for sustainable mobility and the cockpit of the future.
