COMPAGNIE DE FINANCEMENT FONCIER

Commitment on Derivatives in order to maintain the then current rating of the obligations foncières by S&P

In accordance with the legal framework applicable to sociétés de crédit foncier, Compagnie de Financement Foncier uses micro- and macro-interests and currency hedging operations to limit its exposure to interest rate variations and currency fluctuations. As part of this process, Compagnie de Financement Foncier has entered into derivatives agreements with a number of derivatives banking counterparties. Although the documentation policy of the Company for these agreement typically provides for asymmetrical collateralization arrangements whereby the derivatives counterparties will post collateral to the benefit of Compagnie de Financement Foncier while the Compagnie de Financement Foncier will not, the Compagnie de Financement Foncier is nonetheless exposed to the risk of default of its derivatives counterparties.

Such hedging agreements are entered into with derivatives counterparties having sufficient level of ratings on terms that comply with the applicable public methodologies criteria of the rating agencies rating the obligations foncières issued by Compagnie de Financement Foncier commensurate with the then applicable rating of such obligations foncières, provided that, with respect to the “Counterparty Risk Framework Methodology And Assumptions” published by Standard & Poor’s on 29 November 2012 to be read in conjunction with the “Covered Bonds Counterparty And Supporting Obligations Methodology And Assumptions” published on 31 May 2012 (the “New S&P Criteria”):

(iii) in any event, as long as the obligations foncières of Compagnie de Financement Foncier are rated by S&P, if any of such derivatives agreement referred to in paragraph (i) or (ii) above includes an additional termination event that gives Compagnie de Financement Foncier an option to terminate if there is no mutually acceptable replacement derivatives counterparty, and the notional amount of all such derivatives exceeds 5% of the then outstanding amount of the obligations foncières issued by Compagnie de Financement Foncier, Compagnie de Financement Foncier undertakes to, within 60 calendar days as from the date on which the applicable rating trigger event ocured:
