GENERAL COMMENTS<br />

In this registration document, unless stated otherwise, the terms “Company” and “<strong>Iliad</strong>” refer to <strong>Iliad</strong> S.A. and<br />

the term “Group” refers to the Company and its subsidiaries and associates.<br />

Investors are urged to pay careful attention to the risk factors described in Section 4 “Risk Factors” of this<br />

registration document before making their investment decision. One or more of these risks could have an adverse<br />

effect on the Group’s activities, financial position, results of operations or on its objectives and targets.<br />

Furthermore, other risks not yet identified or not considered significant by the Group could have the same<br />

adverse effects, and investors could lose all or part of their investment.<br />

This registration document contains statements about the Group’s objectives. Such statements may in certain<br />

cases be identified by the use of the future or conditional tense, or by forward-looking words, including but not<br />

limited to “believes”, “targets”, “expects”, “intends”, “should”, “aims”, “estimates”, “considers”, “wishes”,<br />

“may”, etc. These statements are based on data, assumptions and estimates that the Company considers to be<br />

reasonable. They may change or be amended due to uncertainties related to the economic, financial, competitive<br />

and regulatory environment. In addition, the Group’s business activities and its ability to meet its targets may be<br />

affected if certain of the risks described in Section 4 of this registration document were to materialize. In<br />

addition, meeting targets implies the success of the strategy presented in Section 6.1.1 “Strategy” of this<br />

registration document. The Company does not undertake to meet and does not give any guarantee that it will<br />

meet the objectives and targets presented in this registration document.<br />

This registration document also contains details of the markets in which the Group operates. This information is<br />

notably taken from research carried out by external organizations. Given the very rapid pace of change in the<br />

Internet and telecommunication sectors in France and the rest of the world, this information may prove to be<br />

erroneous or out of date. Accordingly, trends in the Group’s business activities may differ from those set out in<br />

this registration document.
