Regulatory News:

Vivendi’s Supervisory Board, at its meeting on 18 December 2008, examined the AFEP/MEDEF* recommendations on the remuneration of executive directors of publicly-quoted companies.

The Supervisory Board, on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee and the Human Resources Committee, decided to apply these recommendations in their entirety. It noted that most of these recommendations had already been widely anticipated and already apply to Vivendi’s executive directors.

The Supervisory Board confirms that the recommendations of the AFEP and MEDEF now constitute the corporate governance code to which Vivendi voluntarily subscribes when drawing up the report required by article L. 225-37 of the Code of Commerce.
