PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shr Against For Approve the external proposal has been filed by FCPE Action Gaz 2005, one of the employees shareholders vehicle, it amends the earlier Resolution 14 on options for 0.50% of share capital and tends to enlarge the beneficiaries to all employees but equally, even if a greater accessibility of employees to share-based payments seems positive, we do not support this proposal as we consider that egalitarian grants of options must not be encouraged and that stock-options grants must remain a remuneration tool in the hand of the Board of Directors, we recommend opposition B. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shr Against For Approve the external proposal from the Suez Action Gaz 2005 ESOP amends the earlier authorization for restricted shares up to 0.7% of the capital but here for all employees and equally, we do not support as we consider that theses devices must be used as element of the individual pay and because the Board of Directors has already implemented all-employees plans and asks shareholders authorization to continue within the limit of 0.20% of share capital [See Resolution 15], we recommend opposition C. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL: Shr Against For Approve to cut total dividend to EUR 0.80 instead of EUR 2.2, this external proposal from the Suez Action Gaz 2005 ESOP is not based on the strong increase of the 2008 dividend, last year employees shareholders already suggested to freeze the dividend, the motive is to increase the investments and salaries instead of the dividends; the resulting dividend would be a reduction to only 57% of the ordinary dividend paid last year and 36% of the total dividend for this year, a final distribution much too low in view of the legitimate expectations of the shareholders, we cannot support such resolution which primarily opposes the interests of employees and shareholders - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HALLIBURTON COMPANY Agenda Number: 933038487 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Security: 406216101 Meeting Type: Annual Meeting Date: 20-May-2009 Ticker: HAL ISIN: US4062161017 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prop.# Proposal Proposal Proposal Vote For/Against Type Management 1A ELECTION OF DIRECTOR: A.M.
