Pursuant to Article 106, Paragraph 4 of Decree Law No. 18 of March 17, 2020 (the "Cure Italy Decree"), converted by Law No. 27 of April 24, 2020, as subsequently amended and most recently extended by Decree Law No. 215 of December 30, 2023 (the "Thousand-ExtensionsDecree 2024"), converted by Law No. 18, the Company has decided that attendance at the Shareholders' Meeting by those entitled to vote shall take place exclusively through the representative designated by the Company pursuant to Article 135- undecies of Legislative Decree No. 58/98 ("TUF"), to whom a proxy or sub-delegation must be given, in the manner and under the conditions indicated below.

Notice from the intermediary must be received by the Company by the end of the third open market day preceding the date set for the Shareholders' Meeting on first call (i.e., by April 17, 2024); however, eligibility to attend and vote will remain unaffected if notices made by the intermediary are received by the Company after that deadline, provided that they are received by the start of the Shareholders' Meeting proceedings of the individual call.

MODALITIES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE MEETING AND GRANTING OF PROXY TO THE DESIGNATED REPRESENTATIVE

Pursuant to Article 106, Paragraph 4 of the Cura Italia Decree as subsequently amended and most recently extended by the Milleproroghe Decree 2024, converted by Law No. 18 of February 23, 2024, intervention and voting at the Shareholders' Meeting by those entitled to vote is permitted exclusively through the representative designated by the Company pursuant to Article 135-undecies of the TUF, to whom a proxy or sub-delegation must be given, in the manner and under the conditions indicated below.

Consequently, the Company has appointed Computershare S.p.A.-with registered office in Milan, Via Mascheroni No. 19, 20145-to represent the Shareholders pursuant to Article 135-undeciesof the TUF and the aforementioned Cura Italia Decree, (the "Designated Representative").

The proxy, so conferred, shall be effective only for the proposals in relation to which voting instructions have been given;
  2. proxy or sub-delegation pursuant to Article 135-noviesof the TUF and as an exception to Article 135- undecies, paragraph 4 of the TUF.

    It should be noted that shares for which proxies have been given, even partial proxies, are counted for the purpose of duly constituting the Shareholders' Meeting.

APPOINTMENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

With reference to the fourth item on the agenda of the ordinary part, it is recalled that pursuant to Article 15 of the Articles of Association, the appointment of the Board of Directors will be made on the basis of lists submitted by the Shareholders in which the candidates are listed by a progressive number, which must be deposited at the Company's registered office by the twenty-fifth day prior to the date of the Shareholders' Meeting on first call , i.e., by March 28, 2024.

The filing of lists for the renewal of the Board of Directors may also be made through a certified e-mail address at si-servizitalia@postacert.cedacri.it.

Pursuant to Article 15.3 of the Articles of Association and in accordance with current regulations, lists of candidates for the office of Director may be submitted by Shareholders who, alone or together with other Shareholders, collectively hold voting shares representing at least 2.5 percent of the share capital entitled to vote at the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting (in view of the determination made by Consob in Executive Determination No. 92 of January 31, 2024).

Ownership of the minimum shareholding required for the submission of lists is determined by taking into account the shares that are registered in favor of the Shareholder on the day the lists are filed with the Company.

Together with each list, by the filing deadline for that list, the documents required by current laws, including regulations, and Art. 15.3 of the Articles of Association, including: (i) the declarations with which each of the candidates accepts his/her candidacy and certifies, under his/her own responsibility, the non-existence of causes of ineligibility and incompatibility, as well as the existence of the requirements prescribed by current regulations and by the Company Bylaws to hold the office of Director of the Company; (ii) the appropriate certification issued by an intermediary qualified in accordance with the law proving the ownership of the number of shares necessary for the submission of the lists; (iii) the information regarding both the identity of the Shareholders who have submitted the list and the percentage of shareholding held by them; (iv) the curriculum vitae regarding the personal and professional characteristics of each candidate, with an indication of the positions of administration and control held in other companies and with any indication of the suitability of the same to qualify as independent pursuant to Articles. 147-ter, paragraph 4 and 148, paragraph 3 of the TUF and/or Article 2 of the Corporate Governance Code.

The appropriate documentation from the intermediary proving ownership of the number of shares required for the submission of the lists may also be produced after the filing, as long as it is within the deadline of twenty- one days before the date of the Shareholders' Meeting (i.e., by April 1, 2024).

Pursuant to Article 15.3 of the Articles of Association, each list must expressly indicate the candidacy of at least one person who meets the independence requirements prescribed by current legal provisions; lists bearing more than seven candidates must contain at least three candidates who meet the independence requirements prescribed by current legal provisions.

Pursuant to Article 15.3 of the Articles of Association, l and lists with a number of candidates equal to or greater than three must contain a number of candidates belonging to the least represented gender of not less than one-third - or the greater share required by the legislation, including regulations, in force from time to time - of the number of members to be elected to the Board of Directors. In this regard, it should be recalled that, pursuant to Article 147-ter, paragraph 1-ter, of the TUF and Law No. 160 of December 27, 2019, for six consecutive terms starting from the first renewal of the administrative body after January 1, 2020, within the Board of Directors, the less represented gender must obtain a share equal to at least two-fifths of the Directors elected.

Since this is the second renewal of the Board of Directors after January 1, 2020, each list containing a number of candidates equal to or greater than three must therefore be composed in such a way that the less represented gender obtains a share equal to at least two-fifths of the Directors elected. If the application of the gender distribution criterion does not result in a whole number of Board members belonging to the least represented gender, such number shall be rounded up to the next higher unit.

Please note that, pursuant to Article 15.3 of the Articles of Association, each Shareholder and Shareholders who are members of the same shareholders' agreement pursuant to Article 122 of the TUF may submit, or concur to submit, and vote for only one list. Endorsements and votes cast in violation of this prohibition will not be attributable to any list. Each candidate may only run on one list, under penalty of ineligibility.

Pursuant to Article 15.3 of the Articles of Association, lists for which the above provisions are not observed will be considered as not submitted.

Reference is also made to Consob Communication No. DEM/9017893 of February 26, 2009, in which the Supervisory Authority recommended that Shareholders submitting a minority list file, together with the list, a statement certifying the absence of any relationship of connection, even indirect, as referred to in Article 147- ter, paragraph 3, of the TUF and Article 144-quinquies of the Regulations adopted by Consob Resolution No. 11971/99 ("Issuers' Regulations"), with Shareholders who hold, even jointly, a controlling or relative majority interest, where identifiable on the basis of the notifications of significant shareholdings pursuant to Article 120 of the TUF or the publication of shareholders' agreements pursuant to Article 122 of the TUF, as well as the absence of the significant relationships indicated in the aforementioned Communication, or specifying, where existing, the significant relationships indicated in the aforementioned Communication and the reasons why they were not considered decisive for the existence of relationships of connection.
