its subsidiaries.<br />
Its main missions are:<br />
• to perfect the Group’s strategy and the investment and<br />
financial strategies,<br />

• to decide on investments and disposals.<br />
The committee met 21 times during <strong>2011</strong>, and all of the members<br />
attended each meeting.<br />
Financial committee meetings of a technical nature are also<br />

Committee amounted to €1,262,100 in <strong>2011</strong>.<br />

of the Executive Committee<br />
There is only one stock option plan in force in the company, which<br />
was issued in 2006. 15,770 options were allotted to certain members<br />
of the Executive Committee, of which 7,885 were exercised in<br />
<strong>2011</strong> by one of the members of the Executive Committee.<br />
