20,000,000 new shares of a par value of EUR 1.00
each; [Authority expires at the end of 18-month
period] ; it supersedes the one granted by the
shareholders' meeting of 16 JUL 2008 in its
Resolution 18 and to cancel the shareholders'
Preferential subscription rights in favour of any
entities, of which aim is to subscribe, detain or
sell GDF Suez shares or other financial instruments
within the frame of the implementation of one of the
various options of the group GDF Suez International
Employee Shareholding Plan and to take all necessary
measures and accomplish all necessary formalities
PROPOSAL #E.14: Authorize the Board of Directors all ISSUER YES FOR FOR
powers to grant, in one or more transactions, in
favour of employees and Corporate Officers of the
Company and, or related Companies, options giving the
right either to subscribe for new shares in the
Company to be issued through a share capital
increase, or to purchase existing shares purchased by
the Company, it being provided that the options
shall not give rights to a total number of shares,
which shall exceed 0.5% ; [Authority expires at the
end of 18-month period]; this delegation of powers
supersedes the one granted by the shareholders
meeting of 16 JUL 2008 in its Resolution 22 and to
cancel the shareholders' preferential subscription
rights in favour of the beneficiaries mentioned above
and to take all necessary measures and accomplish
all necessary formalities
PROPOSAL #E.15: Authorize the Board of Directors to ISSUER YES AGAINST AGAINST
grant for free, on 1 or more occasions, existing or
future shares, in favour of the employees or the
Corporate Officers of the Company and related
companies; they may not represent 0.5% of issued
share capital; [Authority expires at the end of 18-
month period]; this delegation of powers supersedes
the one granted by the shareholders meeting of 16 JUL
2008 in its Resolution 21 and to take all necessary
measures and accomplish all necessary formalities
PROPOSAL #E.16: Grants full powers to the bearer of ISSUER YES FOR FOR
an original, a copy or extract of the minutes of the
meeting to carry out all filings, publications and
other formalities prescribed by Law
PROPOSAL #A.: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER ISSUER YES AGAINST FOR
PROPOSAL: 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
PROPOSAL #B.: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER ISSUER YES AGAINST FOR
PROPOSAL: 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
PROPOSAL #C.: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER ISSUER YES AGAINST FOR
PROPOSAL: 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

of share premium account or the concept of reserve
fund but, according to the transitional provisions of
the new act, it is allowed to reduce the size of
these funds by adhering to the provisions set for
reducing share capital. Transferring the funds as
proposed will enhance the flexibility of the
company's capital structure and increase the
distributable equity and reserves
