This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. This is neither an advertisement and not a prospectus for the purposes of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of June 14, 2017 (as amended, the “Prospectus Regulation”), nor a prospectus within the meaning of the Public Offers and Admissions to Trading Regulations 2024, and has not been approved, filed, or reviewed by any regulatory authority of the EEA or the United Kingdom.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in certain transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA (“EEA”) RETAIL INVESTORS – The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA.

Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors (as defined above) in the EEA has been or will be prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any such retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPS Regulation.

Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors (as defined above) in the UK has been or will be prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

Other than as required by applicable law, Sanofi does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information or statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained herein.
