Supervisory Board Changes

Cooptation of employee shareholder representative

Nomination of Mr François Henrot as Censeur

Boulogne-Billancourt, 13 December 2010 – At its meeting held on 13 December 2010, Vallourec's Supervisory Board co-opted Mrs Pascale Chargrasse, as member of the Supervisory Board, representing Vallourec employee shareholders.

On 3 December 2010, at the close of the Value 10, the Vallourec employee shareholder plan, employees of the Group owned over 3% of Vallourec's share capital.

Mrs Chargrasse, employee of the Group since 1985, is a member of the Supervisory Board of one of the Corporate Mutual Funds (Fonds Communs de Placement d'Entreprise) invested in Vallourec shares. Her appointment is subject to approval at the Annual General Shareholders' Meeting scheduled for 7 June 2011.

Jean-Paul Parayre, Chairman of Vallourec's Supervisory Board said: "The Supervisory Board is pleased to see a growing employee participation in Vallourec's share capital and is delighted that employees will now be contributing to the Board's discussions."

Philippe Crouzet, Chairman of the Management Board, added: "Close to 70 per cent of Group employees subscribed to Value 10, the third employee shareholder programme in three years. Employee share ownership in Vallourec has thereby reached a significant level. This success demonstrates the confidence of Vallourec's people in the future of the company."

At the same meeting, the Supervisory Board noted the resignation of Mr François Henrot as member of the Supervisory Board and Strategy Committee. In order to continue benefiting from his valued advice, the Board nominated him as Censeur (non-voting Board member).

Pascale Chargrasse, who graduated from the Orsay Technology Institute with a DUT diploma in Computer Science, joined the Group in 1985 as an Analyst Programmer. Member of the Supervisory Board of Vallourec Actions Corporate Mutual Fund (FCPE), Pascale Chargrasse currently works as a Business Development Manager at Valinox Nucléaire, a wholly-owned Vallourec subsidiary. She is also a union representative on the Group's Works Council.
