Alternative Options for Consideration by Allego’s Board Alternative options contemplate a funding package for Allego. Allego is delisted / taken private Considerations • Broader interest in funding Allego’s plan as a private company • Delisting would be preceded by a tender offer to allow minorities to exit • Non-tendering minorities could potentially be squeezed out • Delisting temporarily would confer multiple benefits: o Greater access to private capital o Elimination of all costs associated with a public listing o Cover from the public eye Potential Parties • submitted a take-private offer at $2 per share in Nov 2023, accompanied by a • 125m equity injection; are updating their proposal • strong interest to fund plan in full; detailed discussions held with management; expect to table a proposal ahead of the 17th • continue to assess and have proactively inbounded • currently conducting preliminary DD, expect to submit an LOI ahead of the 17th; need to manage relationship with • supportive of a take-private; would lean on third parties to fund • potential to re-engage for funding of the private entity Allego level funding • Narrower set of funding options at current prices, liquidity and leverage levels • structure could be re-explored, but small upfront commitment and loss of negotiating leverage were good for a commitment of $150m ($100m at close + $50m delayed draw) in redeemable preferred form SPV level funding • Potentially interesting to a small number of parties • Funding connected directly to a set of ringfenced and unlisted assets • Muddies the equity story to public investors (fund flows, minority pay-aways etc.) are understood to prefer this structure, but only able to explore post summer Allego> 3

Key Questions for Madeleine • How do you intend to fund the tender offer? Out of which fund and up to what level of acceptances? • Please elaborate on what you mean by credit approved? Do you have an equity commitment letter in place for the required funding? • Do you intend to pursue a squeeze-out of Allego’s minorities post settlement of the tender offer? • How do you intend to support the near term and future funding requirements of the company once delisted / taken private? And over what timeframe? (internal note: Meridiam cite €250m of min equity required in N5Y, and the “willingness to support the procurement of attractive and competitive financing terms” without committing to a funding package themselves) • Are you committed to remaining Allege’s controlling shareholder for the medium to long term? • What is your remaining investment horizon in Allego? • Are you open to ceding outright control of Allego if a competitively priced and full funding package can be sourced? • Have you discussed your proposal with Apollo? When do you intend to do so? Allego> 4
