Amendment to the agenda of the general meeting of shareholders, March 19, 2010 (2010/03/01 6:35 PM) As previously announced, a general meeting of shareholders has been convened for March 19, 2010, at 10 am, at the Centre des Congrès d'Aix-en-Provence, 14 Boulevard Carnot in Aix-en-Provence, in order to decide upon the financial restructuring plan. However, the agenda for the meeting has been updated by the Board of directors on February 24, 2010, upon the request of a minority shareholder to add draft resolutions to the agenda. Shareholder's request to add draft resolutions to the agenda A minority shareholder, Mr Michel Meeus, has in effect requested the Company to propose at the general meeting of shareholders:
During its meeting on February 24, 2010, the Board of directors decided to not support these draft resolutions and as a result to invite shareholders to reject them altogether. The Board of directors stresses that considerable efforts have been made since several months in preparation for the Company's financial restructuring, which is the key element for the Company's future. THEOLIA's current management team is committed to this financial restructuring in which the two major last steps are (i) the general shareholders meeting's approval and (ii) the completion of the capital increase with preferential rights reserved for shareholders. The Board of directors considers that it would be very damaging for the Company to radically change the composition of its Board of directors while the financial restructuring process is ongoing. It also wishes to draw the Company shareholders attention to the significant uncertainties which would weigh on the Company assuming these draft resolutions presented by Mr Meeus would be upheld by the general meeting. Indeed, this shareholder::
Approval of the cooptation of Board members As a result of the request to add draft resolutions to the agenda related to the ordinary general meeting, and as required by law, the Board of directors has included in the agenda of the general meeting of March 19, 2010, the approval of the cooptation of Board members that occurred since the last general meeting, that of Messrs Jean-Pierre Mattéi and Philippe Leroy. Agenda for the Meeting Thus, as a result of the above, the general meeting of shareholders of March 19, 2010, is called to decide upon:
THEOLIA invites its shareholders to consult the preparatory documents for this general meeting, which are available on the Company's website and notably include: the notice of meeting and the convening notice (including the agenda and the draft resolutions proposed to the meeting), the Board's report to the meeting as well as the addendum to this report and the rules for participating and voting. English translations will also be made available at a later date. All the documents and information relating to this meeting will be communicated to shareholders according to laws and regulations.

Upon request from THEOLIA, this mandate has been once again extended by the President of the Commercial Court of Aix-en-Provence, for 3 months up to May 22, 2010.
