Auditors‘ statement regarding<br />
the reference document<br />
As auditors of Générale Location accounts and in compliance with the regulation COB 98-01, we have examined the<br />
financial and accounting information contained in this reference document and performed all the procedures that<br />
we considered necessary, in accordance with professional standards in force in France.<br />
This reference document has been established under the responsibility of the Chairman of the Board of Directors and<br />
as such we can testify to the fairness of the information it contains in relation with the financial situation and the<br />
accounts.<br />
In compliance with the professional standards applicable in France, our mission consisted of evaluating the fairness<br />
of the information concerning the financial situation and the accounts, to verify their compliance with the accounts<br />
included in the <strong>report</strong>. Our mission required from us to read the additional information contained in the reference<br />
document, in order to identify if there may be possible significant discrepancies with the information concerning the<br />
financial situation and the accounts, and to point out information openly erroneous which would have stricken us<br />
based on our general knowledge of the company acquired within the framework of our mission. Since all provisional<br />
data resulted from a structured development process of elaboration, this reading took into account the hypotheses<br />
adopted by the directors and their translation into numbers.<br />
We have audited the financial statements and the consolidated accounts for the years ended 31 December 1999,<br />
2000 and <strong>2001</strong> decided by the Board of Directors, according to the professional standards applicable in France, and<br />
certify to them without reserve or observation.<br />
We have no comments to make concerning the fairness of the financial and accounting information presented in<br />
this reference document.<br />
