1 PRESENTATION OF THE GROUP MAIN HUBS

CDG EXPRESS The CDG Express project, to link Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport to Gare de l'Est train station in 20 minutes, was relaunched in January 2014 by the French Minister for Transport, with the creation of CDG Express Études, bringing together the French State, SNCF Réseau and Aéroports de Paris. This company carried out the studies necessary for the project, culminating in the French law of 28 December 2016, which provided the framework for the implementation of the project. In February 2019, a concession agreement was signed with the CDG Express infrastructure project management company, owned by SNCF Réseau, Aéroports de Paris and Caisse des Dépôts, to finance, build and operate the infrastructure. In July 2019, a contract was signed with Hello Paris Services, a subsidiary of Keolis and RATP Dev, to operate the future link. Initially scheduled for the end of 2023, commissioning was postponed to the end of 2025, then pushed back again to early 2027, due to: u the impact of the works on existing traffic; u the partial cancellation of the environmental permit in November 2020, followed by the confirmation of its validity in April 2022; u delays linked to rail works in the north of the Île-de-France region. In November 2024, an amendment to the concession agreement was signed to include this deferment. To date, the CDG Express project represents an investment of €2.6 billion, which is financed by a loan from the French State for a maximum of €2.2 billion approved in the French Finance law for 2024 and by equity contributions of around €400 million equally divided among the three shareholders. To repay the loan, the Infrastructure Manager will benefit from fees paid by the rail operator. In accordance with the amended Finance law for 2016, it will also benefit from the special “CDG Express” contribution of a maximum of €1.40 per air passenger, excluding connecting passengers, paid by the airlines that use Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport from the time the link is commissioned. At the end of 2024, the project was 70% complete. The CDG2 station has been completed and delivered to SNCF Gare et Connexions. In autumn 2024, a temporary interruption to traffic allowed the first phase of structural work to be carried out ahead of the replacement of the Pont des Cathédrales bridge, which will begin at the end of February 2025. Investment programmes The main investments at Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub in 2024 are described in chapter 5. The 2024-2026 projected investment programme includes: u the rehabilitation and EASA compliance of runway 1 and associated taxiways; u the project to extend the existing discharge pipe between the Renardières basin and the Réneuse River for 9.4 km to the Marne River; u the rehabilitation of Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub; u studies for the project to extend the existing LISA automatic transport line to east of the hub;

The Roissypôle-Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle 1 station, which houses the regional and long-distance bus station and an RER B station, is the airport's public transport gateway for Terminals 1 and 3. Numerous express and public bus routes serve the bus station and play an important role in the platform's overall mobility scheme. Additional express lines are set to be introduced in the near future, covering a number of towns in the neighbouring départements of Val d’Oise and Seine-et-Marne. Internal public transport services are provided by CDGVal, an automatic transport system that connects the platform’s three terminals, the RER-TGV stations at the centre of Terminal 2, the bus station and the long-stay car parks, as well as shuttle services to and from the terminals. In terms of rail access, a number of new services are planned between now and 2030, including the CDG Express, a direct 20-minute link to Paris (March 2027) and the commissioning of a new rail link between Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport and the Hauts-de-France region at end-2026 ("Roissy-Picardie" project) at the Terminal 2 intermodal station. This line, for which the financing agreement was signed on 3 May 2017, aims to provide a high-speed train link with Amiens and to improve accessibility by rail to the southern part of the Hauts-de-France region and the northeast of the Val-d’Oise from the airport via TER trains. In addition, as part of the “Grand Paris Express” project, Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport will be served by the automatic metro line 17 by 2030. This line received a Declaration of Public Utility by decree on 14 February 2017. The airport will then be located 35 minutes from La Défense and 33 minutes from the Saint-Lazare train station with a connection at Saint-Denis-Pleyel. The line 17 station will be located in the intermodal station of Terminal 2, with an additional station potentially added in the Roissypôle area, depending on the platform's future development needs. The airport is preparing to accommodate these new flows with various investments, in particular to increase the capacity of the CDGVAL in order to encourage a modal shift towards public transport. As part of the 2025 Pioneers strategic roadmap, Groupe ADP is promoting a new long-term airport model and is working to create multi-modal connectivity hubs capable of offering the mode of transport with the lowest environmental impact for each destination, for the benefit of passenger customers and the surrounding areas. In spring 2025, the Group will launch a new development project for the Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub, as part of a voluntary consultation process. Intermodality, both for long distance travel (high-speed rail and low-carbon air transport) and for everyday journeys, with priority given to low emission modes of transport to access the platform, will be at the heart of our development plans. For connecting passengers, in addition to the traditional plane-plane connection, the inter-modal train-plane connection could play an increasing role in the development, in a context of a decrease in domestic flights. By the end of 2025, the Group aims to increase the number of connecting train-plane passengers at Paris-Charles de Gaulle by 50% compared with 2019.
