Alstom's shareholders meeting
Alstom's ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meeting, convened on 1 July 2014, approved all the resolutions with the exception of the 20th resolution, which proposed to introduce in the bylaws of Alstom a new provision in order to maintain single voting rights. Bouygues voted in favour of the new French law principle on double voting rights and therefore against 20th resolution.
The shareholders' meeting renewed the appointments of Bouygues SA, Mr Olivier Bouygues, Mrs. Lalita Gupte and Mrs. Katrina Landis as Directors.
The shareholders' meeting approved the appointment of Mrs. Bi Yong Chungunco, as independent Director, succeeding to Mr Georges Chodron de Courcel, whose term of office expired at the end of today's shareholders' meeting. Mrs Bi Yong Chungunco is currently Senior Vice President, Group General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Lafarge S.A.
Following the shareholders' meeting, the Board has reviewed its Committees as follows:
- Mrs. Bi Yong Chungunco is joining the Ethics, Compliance and Sustainability Committee. The Ethics, Compliance and Sustainability Committee will be chaired by Mr Pascal Colombani, independent Director, succeeding to Mr Jean-Martin Folz.
- Mr Jean-Martin Folz, lead independent director, has joined and will chair the Nominations and Remuneration Committee.
