“Annual General Meeting”

Atos Origin’s Annual General Meeting was held today with a quorum of 61.02 %. The shareholders approved specifically the following resolutions:

  • The company’s accounts and the consolidated accounts for 2007 were approved
  • The distribution of a dividend of 0.40 euro for a total amount of 28 million euros was also voted through (to be paid in cash on 3 July 2008). This first ever dividend payment by Atos Origin reflects the good operational performance of the company in 2007 and its confidence in the outlook of the company.
  • As per the agreement signed 28 May 2008 with Centaurus Capital and Pardus Capital Management, Didier Cherpitel, Diethart Breipohl and Dominique Bazy tendered their resignations at the end of the Annual General Meeting. Jan Oosterveld, whose mandate was up for renewal, did not wish to stand for reelection.
  • The Supervisory Board now consists of nine members, of which seven are deemed to be independent. All mandates run for five years, expiring at the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2013.
    • René Abate
    • Behdad Alizadeh (Partner, Pardus Capital Management)
    • Benoît d’Angelin (Partner, Centaurus Capital)
