In each of those countries, Total plays an active role in promoting the social and economic development of the local communities. Sharing locally created wealth and maintaining its reputation as a good neighbor are integral parts of any company’s duty to act responsibly and lead by example. The Total Group is determined to build on its commitment to social development by spearheading a number of philanthropic activities that champion the values of respect, support and solidarity. Since its inception in 1992, the Total Foundation has been driving these public-interest initiatives. The Foundation’s initial focus was protecting marine biodiversity, but its activities were broadened in 2008 to encompass health, culture and solidarity. The Total Foundation can build on its long-term commitment alongside top-tier partners to help improve access to such essential services as healthcare, education and employment while protecting and promoting mankind’s natural and cultural heritage. The Foundation engages its employees in its activities by backing the community-support projects in which they are involved across the five continents. As France’s leading corporate foundation in terms of allowance, the Total Foundation pursues a widely accessible range of long-term programs in a bid to promote innovation and serve the needs of its partners, whose loyalty and quality guarantee that such programs are relevant and capable of achieving progress.

INTERVIEW WITH THIERRY DESMAREST AND CATHERINE FERRANT 10 WORDS FOR PAVING THE WAY

Loyalty We believe in pioneering initiatives with a focus on the long term, since loyalty is where the seeds for efﬁciency are sown. Building and maintaining long-lasting relationships of trust with our partners creates a legacy that helps open our eyes to new approaches and unexpected horizons. This creates the foundations for… … Dialogue Listening and responding helps to contrast individual values and principles and hones intuition.

02 … Beauty Beauty is all around us, from the smallest note of music to the largest temple, from a snapshot to the depths of the oceans, from the infinitely small to the infinitely large. Beauty is also present in every gesture, both giving and receiving. Celebrating and protecting beauty, as the Foundation intends to do, involves constantly working to weave a bit more… … Harmony Creating a more tightly knit society is one aim of the Corporate Philanthropy. Broadening access to essential services (healthcare and education), procuring the resources to protect nature, promoting understanding and respect for other cultures—this quest for balance requires constant dialogue with public stakeholders and patrons, as well as great care in light of a social context fraught with… … Fragility Vulnerability is everywhere. The Foundation’s missions strive to protect all things fragile: the fragile traces of the past conserved in our art and heritage, the clear and present fragility of our environment and the fragility of the future, because if we fail to help the younger generation prepare for tomorrow’s world, and if we fail to facilitate their access to work and knowledge, then we will fail to create… … Gateways What could possibly be more rewarding for a foundation than helping to impart knowledge from one discipline, one environment and one generation to another.

Our commitment to the younger generation and culture gives us insight into the wealth and fertility of social innovation.

The long-standing diversity of our focus areas, combined with our culture of transferring knowledge, gives us hope of making a lasting contribution to social harmony while masterminding solutions that will continue long after our involvement ends. — “BETWEEN GENEROSITY AND PHILANTHROPY, THERE IS ROOM FOR EXCELLENCE.”

2013 Activity Report 03 GOVERNANCE The Total Corporate Foundation Since it was founded in 1992, the Total Foundation’s mandate has been renewed every five years. In 2013, it began its fifth five-year term with 50 million euro allowance. The Total Foundation aspires to be a venue for interaction and dialogue with its partners and is powered by a permanent 13-member team that manages projects, budgets and partnerships on a daily basis; oversees and develops selected projects; and brainstorms new strategic directions for the programs. The Foundation is also bolstered by special expert committees to 1 address each focus area. They bring together stakeholders from inside and outside the Group who evaluate applications and select which projects will be presented before the Foundation’s Board of Directors. Chaired by Thierry Desmarest, honorary chairman of Total SA, the Foundation’s Board of Directors includes nine other members: five representatives from Total (Jean-François Minster, Jean-Jacques Guilbaud, Jacques-Emmanuel Saulnier, Karl Van Camp and Onno Schoonderwoerd) and four external experts (Michel Aubier, Pierre-René Bauquis, Carl Gustav Lundin and Bruno Racine). The board holds two meetings a year to green-light the budget, assess the initiatives carried out and approve the Foundation’s new strategic directions. Corporate Philanthropy Division Total furthers and sustains the Foundation’s initiatives by supporting a number of public-interest projects through a dedicated division: the Corporate Philanthropy Division. This division is managed by the same team from the Foundation and designs its projects to dovetail with the Foundation’s initiatives.

2013 Activity Report 07 COMMITTED TO PRIORITIZING YOUNG PEOPLE

Because they represent tomorrow’s world, young people form the backbone of Total’s aid policies. Their education and protection underlie a number of philanthropic projects focusing on healthcare, culture, solidarity and training.

The Total Foundation actively encourages employees in France and abroad to lend their support to young people in need. Mentoring students through Frateli or Proxité (a program at the Institut Télémaque) or taking part in solidarity projects with associations are just some of the ways employees can show their commitment.

In a similar vein, the Group’s Corporate Philanthropy Division helps young people ﬁnd their place in society and the professional world, thereby facilitating their prospects for a long working life. Since 2009, Total has taken part in building and assessing innovative practices via the FEJ, the National Youth Development Fund created by the French government. Total built on this partnership by signing an agreement on June 7, 2013, that refocuses initiatives on promoting access to employment as well as cultural and artistic education for young people. Not surprisingly, the program’s code name is “Priorities for Youth.”

Because all good ideas are welcome, the Total Foundation champions a number of associations that help the younger generation, such as Sport dans la Ville and Groupe SOS in France, and Children of the World and Coup de Pouce Humanitaire abroad.

50 60,000 466 million euros young people aided employee-led allocated to the through 200 experimental solidarity projects FEJ since 2009 programs funded supported since 2006 by Total between 2009 in 75 countries and 2013

PROMOTING MANKIND’S CULTURAL TREASURES

Each of the 130 countries in which Total does business are a melting pot of culture, art and traditions. These are just some of the cultures that need to be discovered and shared.

The Foundation, a loyal partner to cultural institutions in France (the Louvre Museum, Centre Pompidou, Guimet Museum, Arab World Institute, musée du quai Branly, Louvre-Lens, and so on), helps focus the spotlight on their exhibitions in France and abroad. From the Middle East to Southeast Asia to Africa, the Foundation helped promote the wealth of cultural resources across the ﬁve continents.

In the French regions where the Group is active, the Total Foundation continued working alongside the Fondation du Patrimoine, for which Total is the leading patron, in restoring and rehabilitating the country’s cultural, industrial and craft heritage. The Foundation breathes new life into each historically important site and gives people a chance to learn a trade and ﬁnd their place in society.

What is the focus of the Guimet Museum’s actions? Asia holds a fundamental place in today’s world. I like reminding people that Asia represents half of the world’s population! Hosting a national collection of Asian art in France has never had such strategic import, but we should also remember that the Guimet Museum became a major national depart- ment in 1945.

2013 Activity Report 17 A new “eye on the future” When the monumental sculpture Le Signal was erected in 1961 in the plaza in front of the André Malraux Museum of Modern Art, on the very spot where the Museum of Le Havre crumbled under the German bombing campaign, a symbol was born: the modernity of the reinforced concrete work by Henri Georges Adam symbolized the momentum of postwar France. Unprotected from the elements for 50 years, Le Signal was showing the ravages of time. Work was completed in 2012 with funding from the Total Foundation to restore the 22-meter-long sculpture to its former glory. GIVING

2013 Activity Report 19 INNOVATING TO TACKLE DISEASES

Many of the countries where Total is active are characterized by their unequal access to healthcare. Non-OECD territories in particular are prone to pandemics and natural disasters and are cruelly lacking in appropriate treatment and resources. Nothing could be more natural for a group such as ours than to join forces with local organizations with the aim of improving access to knowledge and healthcare.

Since 2005, the Total Foundation has partnered with the Institut Pasteur, a pioneering force in global biomedical science research and the ﬁght against infectious diseases. The Foundation helps mastermind groundbreaking research programs and provides training for local healthcare teams. The partnership spans the entire medical sector and initially focused on HIV/AIDS before gradually encompassing other pandemics and emerging infections.

Researchers and ﬁeld teams are channeling their expertise to tackle infantile diarrhea and meningitis, along with their psychosocial repercussions. According to local needs, the Total Foundation is committed to getting involved with other partners. In Cameroon, the Foundation is assisting ANRS (French National Agency for Research into AIDS and Viral Hepatitis) as part of the Pédiacam program, which is assessing the implementation of a long-term system for early diagnosis and monitoring of children born to HIV-positive mothers.

At the same time, Total’s Corporate Philanthropy Division is working alongside NGOs to tackle humanitarian disasters.

Including 1 million euros 2 allocated to international 500,000 million euros projects euros allocated in 2013 earmarked every year to fund urgent for healthcare and and 800,000 humanitarian actions the partnership with the euros allocated Institut Pasteur to the Françoise Barré Sinoussi chair

The Foundation’s ﬁnancial support has also helped renovate the Institut Pasteur and the pediatric facility in Bangui, as well as the Saint Joseph Healthcare Center in Ouango, thereby improving conditions for treating and caring for young patients. To raise awareness among families, who often take a haphazard approach to their children’s treatment, an evaluation is being conducted into the local practices and perceptions surrounding this type of diarrhea.

2013 Activity Report 25 DIVING DEEP INTO THE OCEANS

The term “blue planet” is a ﬁtting description, since water, is one of our main elements. Protecting the integrity of our oceans is an immense challenge facing the future of mankind.

The Total Foundation was alerted to this emerging issue more than 20 years ago and has since lent its support to countless research programs into marine biodiversity (biological diversity proper or relating directly to the oceans).

These programs are driven by leading experts and organizations and are aimed at gaining a keen insight into the lives of species as well as marine and coastal ecosystems. The knowledge acquired can then be used for their protection. Informing the general public is essential for raising global awareness of the fragility of marine life, so the Total Foundation ensures that all knowledge acquired is disseminated to the widest possible audience, including the youngest members of society.

At the same time, Total works alongside sea rescue services and ﬁshermen as part of its commitment to improving everyday safety for sea users.
