4 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) Declaration of Extra ‑ financial Performance

As a leader in agricultural insurance, Groupama helps farmers meet the major challenges facing this strategic sector (sovereignty, quality and health, and eco ‑ services). Groupama and Initiative France established a national partnership in the form of philanthropy to support the economy and entrepreneurship at the local level (in particular, trades, crafts, and agriculture). This national partnership strengthens existing and well ‑ established relationships between the Groupama regional mutuals and the Initiative France Network, in a hundred territories. The objective is to step up and diversify support for project leaders, evidenced by support from entrepreneurs, from the presentation of the project through to financing and then by monitoring the Company’s development stages. Groupama participates actively with its elected representatives or employees in regional approval committees with other Initiative France partners; these committees grant interest ‑ free loans. Groupama brings its expertise in risk prevention and management to these committees; in addition, project holders can access insurance for their interest ‑ free loan. As a partner committed to the dynamics of the territories, Groupama supports innovative companies in favour of safety and the environment, committed to the local economy. Each year since 2018, Groupama also awards regional and national Trophées Pros to small businesses that have a positive impact on society and the environment. Partnerships with accelerators (such as French Assur Tech in Niort) are also led by the Group’s companies. The Volt’terre innovation programme was launched in 2022 and continued in 2023 with a second graduating class. The main objective of the programme is to develop innovation at the Group level by involving Groupama startups and teams at the local level. To achieve this objective, the programme relies on five startup accelerators, positioned as close as possible to our employees in five cities in France: Le Mans, Lyon, Montpellier, Rennes, and Paris. Each year at the Salon des Maires, Groupama welcomes to its stand the teams of Groupama Predict, which is committed to climate change and preventive measures for policyholders, and the association Générations Mouvement, of which Groupama is a partner. Générations Mouvement is the leading federation of retirees’ clubs in France and works to support and create social ties among seniors. It should be noted that the Salon des Maires was an opportunity to highlight the Oasis experience in the fight against medical deserts. Almost all of the Group’s companies engage in local actions/ societal partnerships. Companies focus on certain themes, such as entrepreneurship, support for young people , actions to support people with disabilities, solidarity, culture, and heritage, the environment, cinema, prevention , and the fight against breast cancer ( via the participation of companies in the La Parisienne foot race, the Octobre Rose event, etc.). Many employees of the Group’s companies take part in these highlights of the year. Also worth mentioning in terms of the commitment of the entities’ employees are the Special Olympics races, which Groupama employees attend. For the past three years, we have been developing a significant sponsorship programme for cycling in the regions: support for races and amateur cycling clubs, Ton Club Ton Maillot, with 485 amateur clubs and more than 10,000 licence holders in (1) (2)

mainland France and the French overseas departments and territories who have already received assistance from us. In 2023, Groupama launched its fourth season and is also continuing the “everyday cycling” campaign: distribution of fluorescent armbands and more visibility kits throughout France. Groupama became a major partner of Vélotour in 2023 (50,000 participants) with the aim of making cycling accessible to everyone and promoting safe cycling. This is the background to the partnership with Vélotour, a concept that allows cyclists to discover French cities and their heritage in a different way through unusual bike rides in places that are sometimes inaccessible to cyclists. The routes, which range from 15 to 25 kilometres, are designed to highlight this environmentally friendly means of transport, introduce local residents to nearby bike paths, and raise awareness of ecomobility from an early age, all while respecting the highway code. In late 2021, Groupama launched a major multiyear international campaign: Les Gestes Qui Sauvent. We want to train 1 million people in first aid for free. Recognising a heart attack and knowing how to react in the event of choking or a dizzy spell are among situations that can happen at any time and where first aid comes first. Groupama therefore wishes to raise awareness among the general public of “life ‑ saving techniques” through physical training and video tutorials. Participation is open to members and their families, employees, elected representatives, and anyone else who wants to save lives – number of trained people provided in the indicators in the “Prevention” section. The milestone of 100,000 people trained was reached in 2023. The “Bracelets de plage” campaign, which enables the identification of small children (on the French coasts), in which Groupama has been a partner for more than five years (handing over bracelets to the Rescue Services and CRS) was continued in 2023 (60,000 bracelets made available). In 2023, corporate philanthropy amounted to more than €8.4 million, a stable overall amount compared with 2022. Major commitments include: €1.7 million devoted to the fight against rare diseases (support for research, associations, and families, medical information, with the Groupama foundation and the regional mutuals). In 2023, 10 new initiatives were supported by the regional mutuals throughout the country: nine research projects, one state ‑ of ‑ the ‑ art piece of equipment, and one support group for siblings. Since 2000, the foundation has supported two major players: Orphanet (a scientific reference platform) and Alliance Maladies Rares (a group of 240 associations). Assessment of the 2023 “Balades solidaires” (solidarity walks): 103 walks and 32 solidarity events ( versus 91 walks and 31 events in 2022); 57 rare disease associations and 4 research projects received €418,325 in donations ( versus €412,000 in 2022); 22,863 walkers and participants in 2023. €560,000 is devoted to supporting cinema (support for young film ‑ makers and distribution as well as the Cinémathèque française, with the Gan Foundation for 35 years); more than 40 César awards have been given to the foundation’s winning films; around a hundred scripts are reviewed each year (including 70% first features, 30% second features, and 30% projects proposed by female Directors); the Gan Foundation is a partner of two prestigious festivals in France (Semaine de la Critique in Cannes and the Annecy Animation Film Festival).
