copy or extract of the minutes of the meeting to carry
out all filings, publications and other formalities
prescribed by Law
A. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shareholder Against For
Approve the external proposal has been filed by FCPE
Action Gaz 2005, one of the employees shareholders
vehicle, it amends the earlier Resolution 14 on
options for 0.50% of share capital and tends to
enlarge the beneficiaries to all employees but
equally, even if a greater accessibility of employees
to share-based payments seems positive, we do not
support this proposal as we consider that egalitarian
grants of options must not be encouraged and that
stock-options grants must remain a remuneration tool
in the hand of the Board of Directors, we recommend
opposition
B. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shareholder Against For
Approve the external proposal from the Suez Action Gaz
2005 ESOP amends the earlier authorization for
restricted shares up to 0.7% of the capital but here
for all employees and equally, we do not support as we
consider that theses devices must be used as element
of the individual pay and because the Board of
Directors has already implemented all-employees plans
and asks shareholders authorization to continue within
the limit of 0.20% of share capital [See Resolution
15], we recommend opposition
C. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shareholder Against For
Approve to cut total dividend to EUR 0.80 instead of
EUR 2.2, this external proposal from the Suez Action
Gaz 2005 ESOP is not based on the strong increase of
the 2008 dividend, last year employees shareholders
already suggested to freeze the dividend, the motive
is to increase the investments and salaries instead of
the dividends; the resulting dividend would be a
reduction to only 57% of the ordinary dividend paid
last year and 36% of the total dividend for this year,
a final distribution much too low in view of the
legitimate expectations of the shareholders, we cannot
support such resolution which primarily opposes the
interests of employees and shareholders
