Worldline’s Corporate Social Responsibility approach is based on a materiality analysis used to prioritize its actions in the most relevant areas, taking into account its business activities and the expectations of its stakeholders. Therefore, the materiality analysis is a quality assessment tool used to connect and prioritize financial and non-financial subjects. It allows to focus on issues that are truly strategic and critical to the sustainability of the Company's business model and enable it to achieve its objectives and manage its impact on the Company. The 2017 materiality analysis and associated reporting process were structured and delivered in compliance with the guidelines of the New Standards from the Global Reporting Initiative and the practices of the Atos group. The approach was also developed in accordance with the principles of the AA1000 standards. Consequently, Worldline’s reporting is processed through two documents: the Registration Document includes a whole set of Key ● Performance Indicators and the results of the materiality assessment, in line with Worldline’s financial statements. The document is intended for the investor community. It complies with the French Grenelle II law and the Energy Transition for Green Growth law; the Corporate Social Responsibility report, including the ● main KPIs, highlights the key initiatives and case studies on important topics to Worldline. This document was prepared in accordance with the New GRI Standards "Comprehensive Option" and contains a cross-reference table showing the links between GRI information and the expectations of the French law Grenelle II law and the Energy Transition for Green Growth law contained in the Registration Document. The above reports for this year do not cover all data and actions related to new acquisitions made in 2017 (First Data Baltics, Digital River World Payments, MRL Posnet and Diamis). Worldline will consider these new entities in upcoming reports, to include their data on a yearly basis.

Identification and prioritization of relevant topics Worldline performed a materiality assessment in 2014 that was revised in 2016 and confirmed in 2017 following extensive dialog with its stakeholders. The materiality assessment aims to identify the essential challenges that the market and the main stakeholders consider critical for Worldline. As presented in Section D.1.1.3, the prioritization was based on the materiality review performed in 2014 and updated in 2015 and 2016, following the Global Reporting Initiative New Standards of reporting.
