INFORMATION ABOUT <strong>ANF</strong><br />
Reports and <strong>in</strong><strong>format</strong>ion for <strong>the</strong> Shareholders’ Meet<strong>in</strong>g<br />
We have taken all <strong>the</strong> due diligence we considered necessary with respect to <strong>the</strong> audit<strong>in</strong>g standards of <strong>the</strong> Compagnie Nationale des<br />
Commissaires aux Comptes (<strong>the</strong> national Statutory Auditors’ organisation) <strong>in</strong> order to perform our assignment. This due diligence consisted<br />
of verify<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> content of <strong>the</strong> <strong>report</strong> from <strong>the</strong> Executive Board on this transaction and <strong>the</strong> terms for determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> issue price of <strong>the</strong> equity<br />
securities to be issued.<br />
Subject to fur<strong>the</strong>r exam<strong>in</strong>ation of any issue terms that may be decided, we have no observations to make on <strong>the</strong> way <strong>in</strong> which <strong>the</strong> issue price<br />
of <strong>the</strong> equity securities to be issued was set, appear<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Executive Board’s <strong>report</strong> under <strong>the</strong> 11th, 12th and 13th resolutions.<br />
In addition, as this <strong>report</strong> does not state <strong>the</strong> terms for determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> issue price of <strong>the</strong> equity securities to be issued with<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> context of<br />
implement<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> 16th resolution, we cannot give our op<strong>in</strong>ion on <strong>the</strong> choice of items <strong>in</strong>cluded <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> calculation of <strong>the</strong> issue price.<br />
As <strong>the</strong> issue price for <strong>the</strong> equity securities to be issued has not been set, we do not express an op<strong>in</strong>ion on <strong>the</strong> fi nal terms under which<br />
<strong>the</strong> securities will be issued and, as a result, on <strong>the</strong> proposal to remove pre-emptive subscription rights made to you <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> 12th and 13th<br />
resolutions.<br />
Pursuant to Article R. 225-116 of <strong>the</strong> French Commercial Code, we will prepare an additional <strong>report</strong>, if applicable, at such a time as <strong>the</strong><br />
authorisations are used by your Executive Board <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> case of issues of ord<strong>in</strong>ary shares with removal of pre-emptive subscription rights and<br />
issues of securities giv<strong>in</strong>g access to capital.<br />
