The Issuer is, directly or indirectly, the ultimate holding company of all the companies in the RCI Banque group and its assets are substantially comprised of shares in such companies. It does not conduct any other business and is accordingly dependent on the other members of the RCI Banque group and revenues received from them. See the Annual Report 2022, pages 2-3, 272-273, for a brief description of the RCI Banque group and the Issuer's position within the RCI Banque group. Management See the Annual Report 2022, pages 177-182, for the names, functions and relevant external activities of members of the Issuer's Board of Directors. Gianluca De Ficchy has been appointed as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Issuer as of 1 February 2023. Their business address is at the registered office of the Issuer. As at the date of this Supplement, Gianluca De Ficchy does not hold any mandate in any companies outside of the Issuer. There are no potential conflicts of interest between the duties to the Issuer of the members of its Board of Directors and their private interests or other duties. Shareholders See the Annual Report 2022, pages 272-273, for information on ownership and control of the Issuer. The major shareholder in the Issuer is bound, in its relations with the Issuer, by French law provisions relating to the Issuer's status as a credit institution (réglementation bancaire). Financial information See the Annual Report 2022, pages 193-267 (including the accounting policies and explanatory notes thereto at pages 202-267) and the Annual Report 2021, pages 157-231 (including the accounting policies and explanatory notes thereto 5 at pages 166-231), for, respectively, the RCI Banque group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 and the year ended 31 December 2021. See the Annual Report 2022, page 201 and the Annual Report 2021, page 165, for, respectively, the RCI Banque group's consolidated cash flow statement for the year ended 31 December 2022 and the year ended 31 December 2021.

Consistent with RCI Banque activity and regulation applicable to the banking business in France, new loans granted during the period are partially or fully financed through an increase of debt. Increase in new loans are closely linked to the general economic situation in the car industry and the sales performance of the Renault and Nissan Alliance. Depending on these factors, a variation of 10 per cent. of debt (increase or decrease) over a six-month period is not considered unusual given RCI Banque's activities. Debt increases are usually performed through: (i) public issues under existing EMTN programme, which are all publicly disclosed, (ii) bank loans, ABS transactions and private debt issuances, all of which are not publicly disclosed, (iii) as well as amounts payable to customers, including customer savings and term deposits accounts collected through the deposit taking activities." The following text shall be added in the sub-section "Recent Developments" in the "Description of RCI Banque and the RCI Banque Group" section on page 96 of the Base Prospectus: "15.
