This company and its subsidiary shall perform their activities exclusively on behalf of local authorities, their groupings and local public institutions. This financing activity shall be carried out by the subsidiary using resources mainly generated by issues of financial instruments, excluding resources received directly from the State or resources guaranteed by the State. In derogation of the provisions of Articles L. 2252-1 to L. 2252-5, L. 3231-4, L. 3231-5, L. 4253-1, L. 4253-2 and L. 5111-4, local authorities, their groupings and local public institutions are authorised to guarantee all of the subsidiary's commitments up to the amount of their own outstanding loans with said subsidiary. The conditions for the application of this guarantee are specified in the articles of association of the two companies." The Decree n° 2020-556 dated 11 May 2020, incorporated as article D 1611-41 of the CGCT, specifies the requirements that must be satisfied by local authorities, their groupings and local public institutions to become shareholders of said company. It determines the thresholds that may apply to their financial condition and level of indebtedness and which take into account their capacity as shareholders of said company and guarantor of said subsidiary." 51 CAFL Lo bonque des collectivités#52App2 - The First Demand Guarantee Mechanism The Members' Guarantee and the Agence France Locale - Société Territoriale Guarantee are both independent first demand guarantees under Article 2321 of the Civil Code: they benefit holders of all securities issued and contracting parties of all acts concluded by Agence France Locale with the provision that these securities or acts shall apply based on the Guarantee of Agence France Locale or the Members' Guarantee: "The independent guarantee is the undertaking by which the guarantor is bound by virtue of an obligation entered into by a third party to pay an amount either on-demand or in accordance with agreed terms. The guarantor is not bound in the event of explicit abusive or fraudulent behaviour by the beneficiary or in the event of the latter colluding with the instructing party. The guarantor may not claim any exception against the guaranteed obligation.

Compliance with this rule is guaranteed by the statutory budgetary audit mechanism involving regional and local Courts of Auditors acting at the behest of the State representative. It notably includes a procedure for rectifying excessive deficits in the accounts" This rule ensuring balanced budgets is notably codified in Article L.1612-4 of the CGCT: "The local authority budget is balanced when the operational and investment sections are both balanced and approved, with revenues and expenditures assessed in a faithful manner and when funding from the revenues of the operational section to the investment section, added to this section's own revenues (excluding proceeds from borrowings) and to depreciation and provisions, provide sufficient resources to cover annual capital repayments falling due during the financial year." Article L.2331-8 of the CGCT states that proceeds from borrowings represent one of the non-tax revenue items of the investment section in local authority budgets. Borrowings correspond to long-term debts taken out during the period. Borrowings may also only be used for funding investment requirements and must be differentiated from short-term debts, which only cover annual requirements and which are not included in the budget. 54 CAFL Lo bonque des collectivités#55- App5 A Strong and Stable Shareholder Base In case a member requests to leave In case of changes in the field of competences of a member local authority • Each shareholder member cannot leave before a minimum 10-year lock-up period; Following the 10-year period, no member will be allowed to leave Agence France Locale unless it has fully repaid its loans; Worsened financial position Financial position impact Improved financial position • All members shall remain guarantors of AFL up to the level of their outstanding loans with AFL (principal, interest and incidentals) until they have fully repaid their loans; Local authority classified as a Sleeping Member If the local authority does not pay an additional ICC(1) due to the new competences If the local authority pays an additional ICC due to the new competences 55 The leaving member is requested to find a new shareholder which has been approved by the Board of Directors of AFL - ST to acquire its shares.

Our institution, Agence France Locale, is not a financial institution like the others. Created by and for local authorities, it acts in a local context to strengthen our freedom, our ability to develop projects and our responsibility as public actors. Its culture of prudence prevents us from the dangers of the complexity and richness of its governance, and from abuses related to conflicts of interest. Its fundamental objective is to offer local authorities access to resources under the best conditions and with complete transparency. The principles of solidarity and equity guide us. Convinced that we will go further together, we wanted an agile institution that would appeal to all authorities, from the largest regions to the smallest towns. We see profit as a means to optimize public spending, not as an end in itself. Through AFL, we support a local environment committed to addressing social, economic and environmental challenges. The AFL strengthens our power to act, to carry out projects locally, for today and tomorrow, for the good of the people who live there. We are proud to have a bank that expresses growth as we see it, ever more responsible and sustainable. We are Agence France Locale."
