Sustainability Financing Framework We have designed this Sustainability Financing Framework (the “Framework”) to further align Autodesk’s impact strategy with our financial strategy. In addition, the Framework has been de‑ veloped in accordance with the ICMA Green Bond Principles 2021 (“GBP”), Social Bond Principles 2021 (“SBP”), and Sustainability Bond Guidelines 2021 (“SBG”, and together “the Principles”), which are voluntary process guidelines for best practices in the Sustainability Financing market. The Framework is aligned with the five core components of the Principles: A) Use of proceeds B) Process for project evaluation & selection C) Management of proceeds D) Future reporting E) External review A. Use of proceeds We intend to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from any Sustainability Financ‑ ing pursuant to this framework to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, one or more new or existing “Eligible Projects”. In addition, we would expect to reach full allocation within 24‑36 months after any potential future Sustainability Financing. Eligible Projects refer to projects that meet the defined “Eligibility Criteria”, and include cap‑ ital and operational expenditures made by us beginning with the 24 Months preceding the issuance date of any Sustainability Financing. “Eligibility Criteria” means any of the following: Eligible project Eligibitlity criteria U.N.
