PRESS RELEASE

Saint-Gobain successfully launches a dual tranche

EUR 1.5 billion bond issue consisting of

   EUR 750 million with a   5 year maturity and a 0.625% coupon

EUR 750 million with a 12 year maturity and a 1.875% coupon

With this dual tranche transaction Saint-Gobain takes advantage of favourable market conditions to lengthen the average maturity of its debt, optimising at the same time its average cost of funding.

This success underlines the bond investors' confidence in the credit quality of Saint-Gobain.
