Dividend
The economic recession that began at the end of 2008, general uncertainty and the significant decline in demand in the fourth quarter of 2008 which continued during the first semester of 2009 have resulted in a lack of visibility for 2009.
The Group has prepared itself to face this difficult economic environment with new structural plans for cost reduction and a sharpened focus on financial discipline with, as a priority, the generation of Free Cash Flow.
In this context, the Board of Directors has recommended to not pay a dividend with respect to 2008. This recommendation has been approved by the Annual Shareholders meeting of May 20, 2009.
