Answered in your identical post on the Keil forum:

(Identical, that is, apart from omitting the detail that you're using Raisonance!)

You should be able to ignore it. It provides an execution address, similar to the S5/6/7 records Motorola used. It is generally used to allow a loader to place the code in RAM, and jump to an entry point.

Here with Keil

...

:103B300049AE399019106B010710219AFF0181A934

:0C3B40000C931E9C5A2047011500000049

:04000005080000ED02

:00000001FF

It points to the __main entry point (via the .MAP file)

    Stack_Size                               0x00001000   Number         0  stm32f10x.o ABSOLUTE

    __Vectors                                0x08000000   Data           4  stm32f10x.o(RESET)

    __main                                   0x080000ed   Thumb Code     0  entry.o(.ARM.Collect$$$$00000000)

I'll also note on the STM32 (Cortex M3) that the address should be ODD because it is Thumb code.

Except in that thread the OP *was* using Keil tools. I'm not sure asking questions in multiple forums is really a problem, it's like asking multiple colleagues who may not have been party to other/earlier conversations, and might have different experience(s) with different tools.
