(A) GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING GL EVENTS AND ITS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Information on the company's business Created in 1978, under the name Polygone Services, GL events is today a global provider servicing all participants of the event industry: organizers, communications agencies, companies, institutions, etc In this environment, with its historical business covering the delivery of services, since 2001 GL events has completed its upstream offering, expanding into the organization of events and venue management (convention centres, exhibition centres, concert halls) to offer comprehensive event industry solutions. As a result, the Group is today able to propose an offering covering the organization (design, marketing, event communications), venues and associated logistical services. Strategy GL events' goal is to pursue this strategy of integration to cover the entire event industry cycle. This goal will be achieved through the integration of new fields of expertise enriching the global offering of venues under management, the acquisition of businesses with higher added value such as the organization of trade shows and exhibitions and proprietary events France, Europe and other regions where the Group currently manages or will manage venues and the integration of new facilities for hosting events in France and in other countries to complete the network available to organizers of professional, institutional and corporate events. The goal of this strategy, combining organic growth and targeted acquisitions, is to achieve Group sales by 2010 of approximately 900 million by increasing the contribution in the revenue of the activity of the organization of events and venue management and strengthening the Group's presence in international markets. The development of business from venues added to the offering in recent years, contributions from new concessions announced will contribute to organic growth. The Group's continued active participation in calls for tender as concession agreement for venues in France and other countries are renewed in the years ahead will also fuel this expansion. Finally, the development of event organization activities will fuel the growth of logistical services. Growth through strategic acquisitions will focus on the following areas: The acquisition of activities with higher added value such as the organization of trade fairs, exhibitions and events in France Europe and other regions where the Group manages or will manage venues, the integration of new facilities for hosting events in France and other countries. Integration of new services in the offering of venues under management The Group's development also offers synergies between its two major divisions, enriching its offering by providing Group customers the possibility to work in France and in international markets through its expanding global network of venues. Growth in the activity of organizing trade fairs, exhibitions and events and venue management should contribute to significant gains in margins. 3/9

If such rights are not exercised by shareholders, their value will be diluted.
