Renault board of directors unanimously approves CEO’s action plan in wake of fraud crisis
PARIS – March 14, 2011 – Renault’s board of directors held an extraordinary meeting Monday at the request of CEO and President Carlos Ghosn. Ghosn addressed the full board, including representatives from Japan, about the preliminary findings of a French prosecutor who has been conducting an investigation into the case of three employees terminated for alleged wrongdoing. The prosecutor exonerated Messrs Michel BALTHAZARD, Bertrand ROCHETTE et Matthieu TENENBAUM of all wrongdoing.

In addition, Ghosn presented the board of directors with the results of an investigation by the Central Directorate of Interior Intelligence (DCRI). The agency’s findings point to organized fraud involving at least one Renault employee.

Ghosn presented the board with the following action plan:                                                        
1.Offer to reinstate or compensate all three employees accused and wrongfully dismissed. 
2.Conduct appropriate disciplinary proceedings against three employees in Renault’s security division.
3.Restore the image of Renault and bolster confidence in the company and its executives. Ghosn told the board that he had decided to wave the 2010 variable compensation and 2011 stock option benefits for himself, Chief Operating Officer Patrick Pelata and possible other senior executives involved.
4.Analyze and streamline Renault’s security division. Ghosn and Pelata will lead this project with an independent director, the Chairman of the Audit Committee. The security division will be the direct responsibility of Renault’s executive committee. The Executives HR department will now report to the SVP, Human Resources. 

The board of directors unanimously supported Ghosn's action plan. Pelata tendered his resignation, but Ghosn refused to accept it. Ghosn also emphasized his and Pelata’s commitment to leading Renault.
