DISCLOSURE ON EXTRA-FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE CLIMATE CHANGE

Energy efficiency 5.4.2

[102-12] [103-1 Energy] [103-2 Energy] [103-3 Energy] [302-5]

designing devices compliant with regulations as well as various Voluntary Agreements, Technicolor is committing to improve energy efficiency and to reduce the carbon footprint of gateways and Set-Top Box. Also, Technicolor has actively contributed to creation or revision of eco-design regulations impacting the design and development of Technicolor gateways and Set-Top Box by providing inputs to the EU commission, via Technicolor’s membership with the Digital Europe organization of leading Digital Technicolor European companies. Especially with regard to eco-design requirements on the new regulation of no-load condition electric power consumption and average efficiency of External Power Supply 2019/1782 and regulation 801/2013/EU on standby and network standby power. Each eco-design regulation contains provisions for its future evaluation and possible revision, taking into account the experience gained with their implantation and technological progress. As concerns electricity consumption during the use of Connected Home devices (Set-Top Box and gateways) in their targeted markets during their estimated product lifetime of 5 years (STB) or 4 years (gateway), the one-year impact of all Connected Home devices produced during 2021 is estimated to be an equivalent 784 thousand tons of CO 2eq . The assumed product operation that may be controlled in part by the network operator and the consumer, includes active hours during use, standby hours when not actively in use, and switched-off hours, aligned primarily with customer habits for using their television at home. For any individual piece of equipment, the true equivalent emission will depend on the country and region of operation, as emission factors vary significantly depending on electricity generation methods and sources in each country.

Technicolor started to implement eco-design guidelines in 2008 and has long taken a positive stance towards environmental and efficiency issues in the development, manufacture, and use of its products. The Connected Home segment complies with all the laws, regulations and industry guidelines endorsed by Technicolor in order to improve the energy efficiency of its products while not impacting the user experience. These include: the European Union Code of Conduct on Energy Efficiency of • Digital TV Service and Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment; the European Union Industry Voluntary Agreement to improve • energy consumption of Complex Set-Top Box (CSTB); the US Voluntary Agreement for Ongoing Improvement to the • Energy Efficiency of Set-Top Box (STB); the US Voluntary Agreement for Ongoing Improvement to the • Energy Efficiency of Small Network Equipment (SNE); the Canadian Pay-TV Set-Top Box Energy Efficiency Voluntary • Agreement (STB CEEVA); the Canadian Energy-Efficiency Voluntary Agreement for Small • Network Equipment (CEEVA SNE) to extend its existing energy saving initiatives into the Canadian market. Technicolor was the first Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) vendor to sign the Code of Conduct for Broadband Equipment, putting itself in a leading role for low energy consumption residential gateways.

Renewable energy 5.4.3

[103-1 Energy] [103-2 Energy] [103-3 Energy] [103-1 Emissions] [103-2 Emissions] [103-3 Emissions] [302-4]

As part of its pledge to conduct business safely and responsibly, Technicolor has always measured environmental impact and sought to reduce it through monitoring programs and projects focused on its activities. As the industrial footprint of the Group continues to transform away from energy-intensive processes due to industry closures in glass, tubes, and motion picture film, and the non-industrial footprint continues to evolve and to grow in digital media and the cloud, our energy focus has evolved, resulting in a growing emphasis on increasing the proportion of renewable energy as a percentage of electricity consumed at all the Group sites.

In Brazil, the Connected Homes manufacturing plant dedicated to the production of Set-Top Box for the Americas has a long-term plan to improve its carbon footprint, in part by increasing its proportion of energy from renewable sources. While some portion of electricity available on the market is from renewable sources, the site also installed solar panels, energy storage systems, and control systems sufficient to generate 10% of the electricity consumed by the site.
