Paris, October 13, 2008 - JCDecaux SA (Euronext Paris: DEC), the No.1 outdoor advertising company in Europe and in the Asia-Pacific region, No.2 worldwide, has been awarded the contract to provide the City of Paris with universal access automated public toilets, following a competitive tender. This agreement will run for a period of 15 years.

The contract covers the design, manufacture, installation and operation of 400 universal access automated toilets. These modern, spacious and brightly lit conveniences were created by the designer Patrick Jouin. This new range of toilets is designed to be eco-friendly thanks to the use of recyclable materials in their manufacture and to the use of rainwater for their upkeep. Accessible to all (visually- or motor-impaired individuals, etc.), these facilities will be available to the public free of charge.

Jean-Charles Decaux, Chairman of the Executive Board and co-CEO of JCDecaux, said: “With a total of 400 universal access automated public toilets, this rental contract – the largest of its kind worldwide – demonstrates our expertise in this particular area with a concept invented by JCDecaux 26 years ago. The total number of units of public toilets managed by JCDecaux reaches almost 3,000 units, generating more than 306 million visits since 1982. By renewing this contract with JCDecaux, the City of Paris is acquiring a new network of aesthetically pleasing and ecologically designed street furniture to fully satisfy the criteria of its socially responsible and eco-friendly approach.”
