3 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ON 19 FEBRUARY 2025

A welcome booklet is given to each member of the Board of Directors on their appointment. This booklet is structured around the provision of information and the possibility of exchanges with Executive Management and the members of the Executive Committee, throughout their term of office, to help members understand the specifics of the Company and its activities. The members of the Board were made aware of climate issues, in 2023, during a strategic seminar during which Jean Jouzel, a renowned climate specialist and former Vice Chairman of the IPCC, gave a presentation. This training was appreciated. In view of Groupe ADP’s significant stake in GMR Airports, a trip to India was organised in early 2024 to enable members of the Board of Directors to meet GMR Airports corporate officers and visit the airport facilities in Hyderabad and Delhi. In particular, the delegation tested the “Departure” and “Arrival” routes for passengers. On this occasion, GMR Airports’ corporate officers presented the Group's activities and development prospects, as well as the Company's challenges in terms of corporate, social and environmental responsibility, with a particular focus on climate issues and decarbonisation initiatives. GMR Group representatives and members of the Board of Directors exchanged views on infrastructure development, non-aeronautical and diversification activities (aircraft maintenance, training school) and innovation. In 2024, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer made the ethics and compliance training modules for Groupe ADP available to the members of the Board of Directors, comprising a general module and additional modules on specific subjects such as personal data protection. Lastly, the systematic reporting of the CSR Committee’s work to the Board of Directors’ meetings on CSR topics contributes to the ongoing information of its members. The procedure for assessing related-party agreements involving day-to-day transactions entered into under normal conditions is described in the internal charter relating to the related-party agreements adopted by the Board of Directors on 11 December 2019, hereinafter referred to as "the Charter". The procedure, which was implemented in 2020, requires that the Board of Directors ensure that the agreements relate to day-to-day operations and were entered into under normal conditions as defined in the aforementioned charter. The persons directly or indirectly involved in the agreements do not take part in their evaluation. The Board of Directors, on the advice of the Audit and Risks Committee, is examining a summary of agreements relating to ordinary transactions and entered into under normal terms and conditions, drawn up by the Legal Affairs and Insurance Department, at the same meeting as it will examine regulated agreements entered into and authorised in previous financial years, the performance of which continued during the previous financial year. 3.1.3.3.2.5 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCEDURE IMPLEMENTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO ASSESS AGREEMENTS RELATED TO CURRENT CONDITIONS AND AGREED UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS – DESCRIPTION OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION

This summary statement sets out the purpose, duration and financial implications of these agreements and the reference to the reasons set out in the Charter justifying their classification. Lastly, the so-called “free” agreements are reviewed by the Legal and Insurance Department at the time of any modification, renewal, extension or termination, so that an agreement previously considered as free and as such excluded from the procedure for regulated agreements may be subject to the prior authorisation of the Board of Directors at the time of its modification, renewal, extension or termination, and vice versa, based on changes in fact or law. This review was carried out by the Board of Directors on 14 February 2024, after review by the Audit and Risk Committee on 8 February 2024. 3.1.3.3.2.6 MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS The Chairman and CEO convenes Board meetings at regular intervals and at times he or she deems appropriate. To enable the Board to review and discuss in detail issues within its jurisdiction, the Rules of Procedure provide that the Board shall meet at least six times a year, and more if circumstances so require. The notice convening the Board meeting is sent to the Board members, by any appropriate means, at least five days before the date of the meeting except in a case of justified emergency and sets the place of the meeting. The members of the Board meet at least once a year, without the Chairman and CEO being present when his compensation is reviewed. In 2024, the Board’s work focused on the deployment of the 2025 Pioneers strategic roadmap, which sets out the new long-term airport model, to drive the growth of tomorrow and be in step with changes in societal and environmental expectations. Groupe ADP wants to make its airports multi modal transport and energy hubs, aim for excellence in hospitality for its passenger customers and operational and environmental performance for its airline customers, and develop, in a multi-local approach, a culture of innovation and responsibility by placing its action at the heart of the regions. At the same time, the Board of Directors regularly monitored the organisation of the hosting of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games at Paris airports, in accordance with a CSR approach. The year 2024 also highlighted the growing involvement of the Board of Directors and its committees in all aspects of sustainability, in particular with the implementation of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) and the certification by the independent third-party organisation SBTi (Science-Based Target initiative) of Groupe ADP’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets. In view of Groupe ADP’s significant stake in GMR Airports, a trip to India was organised in early 2024 to enable members of the Board of Directors to visit the airport facilities in Hyderabad and Delhi. On this occasion, GMR Airports’ corporate officers presented the group’s activities and development prospects. 3.1.3.3.2.7 ACTIVITIES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN 2024
