Conversely, there were no player transfers during the winter transfer window in January 2021, nor during the first part of the summer transfer window in June 2021, as the Euro and the pandemic combined to make the market relatively inactive.

Given the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Group's bank and bond lenders agreed to grant a "covenant with respect to the 30 June 2021 reference date.

With the economy appearing to emerge from the crisis, the Group has strengthened its finances, which should give it the flexibility it needs to pursue its future development with ambition.

Throughout the financial year, the Group adapted its finances to the public health situation, optimising all of its fixed and variable expenses, while taking advantage of government aid. Given the significant decline in Total Revenue, the Group anticipates that the bottom line will be well into the red both in the second half and over the entire 2020/21 financial year.

A digital and retailing giant, Amazon has a sound financial condition and already has a significant base of 10 million Amazon Prime subscribers. Amazon's entry will increase the Ligue 1 championship's visibility in France and abroad. Amazon's interest in the championship gives tangible expression to its modern view of bringing sports broadcasting to the greatest number and through all terminals, in line with current consumer practices.

In early July 2021 Canal+ indicated to beIN Sports that it wished to cancel its sub-licensing contract. BeIN Sports has sued Canal+ for the payment of lot 3.

Update on recourse against the LFP

Olympique Lyonnais has been informed that the Paris Administrative Court rejected the claim for damages lodged against the LFP, and OL reserves the right to appeal against that decision to the Paris Administrative Court of Appeal.

4/ OUTLOOK FOR THE 2021/22 FINANCIAL YEAR

Spectators return to the stadium

With vaccination gradually ramping up and health passports now in place, the Group can now plan to resume sporting activities and other events at Groupama Stadium.

OL Groupe was a precursor in the vaccination campaign. Starting in April 2021, the Group offered its stadium as a temporary vaccination centre, which then became a permanent one. To date, more than 200,000 people have been vaccinated at Groupama Stadium, and the Group has launched an intense campaign to promote the vaccination passport. The Group expects that vaccination passports, which enabled the Club to welcome spectators into the Stadium for friendly matches on 17 July, will pave the way for more and more spectators to come to the OL Valley site.

The professional teams have demonstrated excellent performance

a high-profile role, both in the Ligue 1 championship and at the European level. The Club will compete in European cup play for the 24th time since 1997/98 (23 consecutive times until the shortened 2019/20 season), participating in the Europa League this season.

Ajax Amsterdam, has

demonstrated his ability to integrate young players and ambitious performance targets.

After finishing second in Division 1 and reaching the UEFA Champions League (UCL) quarter- team will be aiming for their 15th D1 championship title and their eighth UCL title (after 14 consecutive D1 titles and seven UCL titles, of which five in a row).

5/ OL VALLEY - NEW ARENA

The OL Valley site is being finalised, with the opening of the 23,000 m² leisure and entertainment centre on 9 June 2021. The centre combines 17 different recreational, sporting and cultural sites, as well as nearby food services for visitors and local residents, and will contribute to the visitor experience around Groupama Stadium.

The Group is actively planning the new events venue in OL Valley, which will have a capacity of 12,000 to 16,000 people. A contract to design and build this new facility has been awarded to the Populous architectural firm and Citinea, a subsidiary of Vinci Construction France (subject to satisfaction of the customary conditions precedent), with the investment

cost estimated at ca. million. Administrative procedures are being finalised, with a targeted construction start date of end-2021 and completion projected for end-2023. Favourable opinions were rendered in June 2021 after the public enquiries, and Metropolitan Lyon is expected to vote on the amended land-use plan at the end of September. This ultra- modern and connected facility will be the largest of its kind in France outside of Paris and will complement the Group's existing Events capacity. OL Groupe aims to host 80-120 events p.a. in the facility, including concerts, seminars and large professional trade shows, as well as sport and eSport competitions (in particular Euroleague basketball games). In June 2021, the Euroleague Board validated LDLC ASVEL's permanent member status in that semi-closed European basketball league beginning with the 2021/22 season. In addition, LDLC ASVEL won both the French championship and the EuroCup in 2020/21 for the second time (after 2018/19).
