SES Shareholders Hold Annual General Meeting



    SES S.A. (Paris:SESG) (LuxX:SESG) today announced that its
    shareholders have approved all resolutions presented at their annual
    general meeting held today in Betzdorf, Luxembourg.

    The shareholders notably approved the company´s 2007 accounts and
    the proposed dividend of EUR 0.60 per share (+ 36% compared to 2006),
    which will be paid on April 23rd, 2008.

    The resolution to renew the authorisation to repurchase the
    company´s own shares was approved. This resolution enables SES to
    continue its share buyback programme, one of the three elements of the
    company´s strategy to create value for shareholders. SES´s financial
    strength and liquidity provides a strong foundation for the
    continuation of its growth strategy of further investment in satellite
    infrastructure, increasing dividends and share buyback/cancellation
    activities.

    Shareholders at the annual general meeting also re-elected 16
    members of SES´ Board of Directors and appointed Bridget Cosgrave as a
    new member of the Board. Cosgrave was with Belgacom SA from 2001-2007
    as a member of the company´s Executive Committee.

    Following the shareholders´ meeting, the new Board of Directors
    reappointed Rene Steichen as Chairman, and elected two Vice
    Chairpersons: Francois Tesch and Jean-Paul Zens.
