***

2 Analytical statement of the reasons why the Promoter proposes the exercise of the vote in the manner set out in the proxy statement and the Proxy Form.

The Issuer promotes the Solicitation in order to allow for an easier and more informed exercise of voting rights by the shareholders and, therefore, to encourage the maximum involvement of the shareholder base on almost all items on the agenda. In this perspective, without prejudice to the reasons that will be set forth below for each of the Proposals, the Solicitation is - first and foremost and on a general basis - motivated by the Issuer's intention to offer, also through the organisation of the Delegated Entity and the assistance services provided by the latter, a tool for the benefit of the shareholders, aimed at increasing, with diligence and in a spirit of fairness and transparency, their awareness of the various issues relating to corporate governance and actively supporting their effective and sustainable commitment.

Given that the Promoter is also the Issuer, for a broader illustration, Shareholders are invited to examine the reports prepared by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 125-ter of the Consolidated Finance Act and the "Report on the Formation of the Slate for the Renewal of the Board of Directors by the Outgoing Board", published on the Issuer's website at www.gruppotim.it/assemblea

ORDINARY SESSION

Agenda item 1. Financial Statements as at December 31, 2023 - Approval of the financial statements - Coverage of the loss for the year.

The draft financial statements as at December 31, 2023 presented for approval by the Shareholders' Meeting show a net loss of € 995,364,447.83. The reasons for this result are described in the Report on Operations, to which reference is made.

Therefore, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote for the Board of Directors' proposal to approve the financial statements and to cover the loss for the year in the amount of € 575,673,347.42 through full utilisation of the Additional Paid-in Capital and in the amount of € 419,691,100.41 through withdrawal from the Legal Reserve.

* Agenda item 2. Report on the remuneration policy and compensation paid.

2.1 Approval of the first section (2024 remuneration policy)

2.2. Non-binding vote on the second section (compensation paid in 2023)

In accordance with Article 123-ter of the Consolidated Finance Act, the Report on Remuneration Policy and Compensation Paid (the 'Report') was prepared and approved by the Board of Directors.

The first section of the Report illustrates the policy adopted by the Issuer for 2024 on the remuneration of Directors, Statutory Auditors and Key Managers with Strategic Responsibilities, as well as the procedures used to adopt and implement this policy.

The second section of the Report illustrates the implementation of the remuneration policies and the compensation that was paid in the year 2023.

The Report is by law intended for the vote of the shareholders. The decision on the first section is binding. The decision on the second section is not binding.

Having regard to item 2.1 on the agenda, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote for the proposal of the Board of Directors to approve the first section of the Report, considering that the remuneration policy for 2024 described therein (referring to an annual timeframe) is aligned with the interests of the Shareholders and takes into adequate consideration the results of the benchmark analyses carried out, the policies of the main proxy advisors and the indications gathered during the engagement phase, while contributing to the pursuit of the business and sustainability objectives of the Company's 2024-2026 strategic plan. With regard to item 2.2 on the agenda, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote for the proposal of the Board of Directors to resolve favourably on the second section of the Report, taking into account that the compensation paid for any reason during the year 2023, illustrated therein, was paid in line with the applicable remuneration policy.

Agenda item 3. Appointment of the Board of Directors.

*

3.1. Determination of the number of members of the Board of Directors.

Article 9.1 of the Articles of Association provides for a variable number of directors from 7 to 19, to be determined by the Shareholders' Meeting until otherwise resolved. Without prejudice to these limits, the choice must obviously be appropriate to the size and complexity of the Company as well as the number and composition of the board committees. In the Guidelines, the Board of Directors - in light of the experience gained, the results of the self-assessment exercise carried out and market orientations - expressed the view that a reduction in the number of members from the current number of fifteen would be appropriate, consistent with the long-term trend in comparable companies, with the practice in place in several large and very large listed companies, and with the opportunity to contain the overhead costs of corporate governance. In particular, taking into account the scope of business that will result from the implementation of the Delayering Plan, the outgoing Board has deemed it appropriate to appoint a governance body of nine members.

For these reasons, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote for the proposal submitted by the outgoing governance body to set the number of members of the Company's Board of Directors at nine for the three-year period 2024-2026.

3.2. Determination of the term of office of the Board of Directors.

The determination of the term of office of directors is referred to the Assembly, subject to the legal limit of three financial years.

In this regard, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxies to vote for the proposal by the outgoing Board of Directors that the term of office of the new Board of Directors should be the maximum term permitted by law, i.e., three financial years, expiring at the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the financial statements at December 31, 2026, as such determination is in line with the Company's established practice and the need to ensure a certain degree of continuity in the composition of the Board, also in relation to the pursuit of the objectives of the Delayering Plan and, in general, to the work yet to be done in view of the prospective evolution of TIM's scope of business, a delicate and unique transition in the company's reality.

3.3. Appointment of Directors

Slate No. 1 was submitted by the outgoing Board of Directors of TIM in the exercise of the right recognized in Article 9.2 of the Articles of Association.

Slate No. 1, which also comprises the names of the Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer, includes the following candidates:

    1. Alberta Figari, new candidate, indicated as Chairperson;
    1. Pietro Labriola, listed as Chief Executive Officer, a position he has held since January 21, 2022;
    1. Giovanni Gorno Tempini, director since March 31, 2021;
    1. Paola Camagni, director since March 31, 2021;

    1. Domitilla Benigni, new candidate;
    1. Jeffrey Hedberg, new candidate;

    1. Antonella Lillo, new candidate;
    1. Andrea Mascetti, new candidate;
    1. Enrico Pazzali, new candidate;
    1. Luca Rossi, new candidate.

Listed below are the candidates who have declared that they meet the independence requirements provided for by current laws and regulations and the Corporate Governance Code:

  • Alberta Figari, listed as Chairperson;

  • Paola Camagni;
  • Federico Ferro Luzzi;
  • Domitilla Benigni;
  • Jeffrey Hedberg;
  • Paola Tagliavini;
  • Maurizio Carli;
  • Romina Guglielmetti;
  • Leone Pattofatto;
  • Antonella Lillo;
  • Andrea Mascetti;
  • Enrico Pazzali;
  • Luca Rossi.

The various stages into which the process for the formation of Slate No. 1 was divided – also in compliance with the "Procedure for the submission of a slate for the renewal of the Board of Directors by the outgoing Board of Directors" of January 18, 2024 – are briefly illustrated below:

  • self-assessment by the outgoing Board;
  • development of the Guidelines;
  • Appointment of a legal advisor to assist the Board and record the necessary minutes, an executive search consultant to provide professional assistance in the search and evaluation of potential candidates, and a shareholder service firm to act as information agent and corporate strategic advisor in communications with the market;
  • survey of the main stakeholders in line with the Company's engagement policy in order to consult the key shareholders and certain representatives of the capital market with regard to the qualitative and quantitative profiles of the composition of the new Board;
  • definition of criteria for candidate selection;
  • candidate selection process, through the definition first of a provisional long list of candidates, and then of a short list of candidates; and, finally,
  • preparation of Slate No. 1 and its publication.

In particular, the candidates included on Slate No. 1 were selected on the basis of the specific criteria that the Board of Directors adopted, with the favourable opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the support of the consultants, in line with the Guidelines and the indications gathered during consultations with stakeholders.

The preliminary evaluation and selection process that led to the formation of Slate No. 1 was carried out in accordance with the Procedure and, in the Issuer's opinion, in full compliance with the indications formulated by Consob in its Warning Notice No. 1/22 of January 21, 2022 "Submission of slates by the board of directors for renewal of the board of directors" and international best practices. The same process, which provided for the assistance of external advisors, therefore took into account the indications provided by the Board in the Guidelines at the end of the self-assessment as well as those resulting from the dialogue with key shareholders and certain market representatives.

As part of this process, the names of 35 potential candidates from outside the current Board were initially considered, identified, in line with the aforementioned selection criteria, with the assistance of the executive search consultant. Having noted that some of the candidates were not available and having obtained the suggestions of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, the Chairperson submitted a long list of 19 candidates not belonging to the Board of Directors. Subsequently, following further examinations and interviews with external candidates, a short list was drawn up including, in addition to the current CEO, whose confirmation is proposed, 12 external candidates, 4 internal candidates for the position of nonexecutive directors and an external candidate for the position of Chairperson.

For further details on the entire, articulated and transparent process that was carried out by the Board of Directors, please refer to the 'Report of the Board of Directors on the formation of the slate for the renewal of the Board of Directors by the outgoing board' approved on March 6,

2024, published on the Issuer's website at www.gruppotim.it/assemblea. As stated in the aforementioned report, the Board (1 ) in office approved Slate No. 1 on March 6, 2024, with three directors abstaining.

The resolution was adopted in strict compliance with the provisions of Article 2391 of the Italian Civil Code.

Slate No. 1 is composed of six women and nine men, for a total of thirteen independents, selected in such a way as to ensure, on the one hand, a certain degree of continuity to ensure maximum value is gained from the extraordinary activities and transactions initiated by the outgoing Board and, on the other hand, to ensure the inclusion of high-profile external candidates, bringing diversified experience, who can contribute to the future development of the Company.

With specific reference to the relevant figures within the Board of Directors, both for the role of Chairperson and for that of Chief Executive Officer (whose confirmation is proposed), the figures identified fully represent the relevant characteristics for the two roles, which emerged from the Board's self-assessment activities.

With regard to the candidate for the position of Chairperson, Alberta Figari has 30 years of professional experience as a business lawyer, from 1994 to 2021 at the international law firm Clifford Chance (becoming a partner in 1998) and more recently at the international law firm Legance. She is specialized in M&A and corporate finance transactions in Italy and abroad and in equity capital markets transactions including capital increases and IPOs. In addition to these specific skills, she has a consolidated knowledge of corporate governance and board dynamics, having assisted corporate bodies of complex listed companies as external legal counsel. From 2013 to 2022, she was an independent Director on the Board of Directors of Assicurazioni Generali, covering, inter alia, the role of Chairperson of the Control and Risk Committee for the entire period. Alberta Figari is complementary to the figure of the CEO and will certainly be able to guide the Board in the complex path that will have to lead to the closing of the NetCo operation and the other initiatives and challenges that await the Company in the next three years.

The curriculum vitae of each candidate on Slate No. 1 is available on the Issuer's website at www.gruppotim.it/assemblea.

The Promoter therefore invites Shareholders to grant proxy to vote for Slate No. 1 submitted by the Board of Directors, considering that the directors drawn from it have the optimal mix of skills and experience to enable the new Board to meet the needs related, inter alia, to the prospective evolution of TIM's business, protecting the interests of all shareholders and stakeholders.

3.4. Determination of the remuneration of the Board of Directors

It is established practice at TIM for the Shareholders' Meeting to set a maximum overall amount of the gross annual remuneration to be allocated to the Board of Directors. Responsibility for the procedures for the allocation and actual use of the remuneration thus established (which does not include the remuneration of Directors holding special positions) lies with the Board of Directors, which for this purpose may consider the market benchmark, but above all the commitment required to discharge the duties of the office, as well as the workload and responsibilities related to participation in the board committees.

Confirming this approach, the outgoing Board of Directors proposes to confirm the sum established - at the initiative of the shareholders - at the time of the last two renewals (in 2018 and 2021) and never entirely used, merely gauging it to take into account the proposed reduction in the number of members of the new body from 15 to 9. The amount thus determined would change from the current € 2,200,000 per year gross to € 1,300,000 per year gross.

( 1 ) The current Board of Directors is currently composed of six directors taken from the slate submitted at the Shareholders' Meeting held on March 31, 2021 by the outgoing Board of Directors, five directors taken from the slate submitted at the aforementioned Shareholders' Meeting by a group of asset managers and SICAVs, and four directors co-opted during the term of office.

Therefore, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote in favour of the proposal of the outgoing governance body to set the total annual gross remuneration of the new Board of Directors at € 1,300,000.

* Agenda item 5. Adoption of amendments to the 2022-2024 Stock Options Plan - Related and consequent resolutions.

On March 31, 2022, the Shareholders' Meeting approved, pursuant to Article 114-bis of the Consolidated Finance Act, the 2022-2024 Stock Option Plan (the 'Plan') addressed to a portion of the Group's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and key managers with strategic responsibilities of the Company).

The Plan provides for a maximum of free and non-transferable 257,763,000 options, which grant the beneficiaries, at the end of the so-called Vesting Period, the right to subscribe or purchase an equal number of Shares, at a price of € 0.424 per share (Strike Price).

The details of the Plan approved by the Shareholders' Meeting, described in the information document (the "Information Document") drafted pursuant to Article 84-bis of the Issuers' Regulations and Model No. 7 set forth in the relevant Annex 3A, were incorporated into the specific regulations (the "Plan Regulation") approved by the Board of Directors, upon the proposal of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, on May 4, 2022.

During the engagement meetings held with the Company's main investors and proxy advisors, critical considerations were expressed on some specific aspects of the Plan that were deemed not in line with the guidelines published by the same parties. In a perspective of continuous improvement and listening to the suggestions that emerged from the dialogue with stakeholders, also in consideration of the failure to approve the 2023 remuneration policy by the Shareholders' Meeting of April 20, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors - after preliminary investigation by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee - proposed to the Shareholders' Meeting to make a significant change to the Plan, aimed at significantly reducing the maximum payout achievable by the beneficiaries. In particular, it is proposed to amend the definition of "Maximum Benefit" contained in the Information Document and in the Plan Regulation, by significantly reducing the cap from € 1.50 (which - as at March 6, 2024, the date of approval of the proposal by the Board of Directors - was equivalent to more than 5 times the current price of Telecom Italia ordinary shares and to an overall capitalization of ordinary shares of about € 22.8 billion, which compares with that of about € 4.3 billion as at the date of approval of this report) to € 0.80 per share. Due to the operation of the stock options and by virtue of the strike price (as mentioned, € 0.424), the 47% reduction in the cap will result in a 65% reduction in the maximum payout at target.

The adoption of this amendment will therefore reduce the maximum target payout for the CEO from € 25,824,000 to € 9,024,000 and for first-tier beneficiaries from € 6,725,000 to € 2,350,000. In order to follow up on what emerged during the aforesaid engagement meetings concerning provisions in the event of a change of control, it is also proposed to eliminate the possibility indicated in the Information Document and in the Plan Regulation - "for the Board of Directors to approve the acceleration of Vesting (and the immediate exercisability) of the target Options, in the event of a public offering of the Shares", providing instead, in accordance with market practice, only the mechanism according to which if "following a public offering, a party acquires legal control of the Company, the acceleration of Vesting (with immediate exercisability of the Options at target) will automatically take place" ("double trigger"), as already indicated in the Information Document and in the Plan Regulation.

In view of the Board's approval of the aforesaid proposed amendments to the Plan, prior consent to their application was obtained from the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, as well as from the Key Managers with Strategic Responsibilities, who, in the aggregate, are the target recipients of 86,500,000 Options (corresponding to 38.4% of the Options allocated under the Plan). Following the approval of the amendments by the Shareholders' Meeting, the beneficiaries, other than the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and the Key Managers

with Strategic Responsibilities, who have not yet consented to the amendments covered in this report will be asked to accept the new version of the Plan and the Plan Regulation, so that it can also apply to them. With respect to beneficiaries who do not give their consent within the aforementioned time limits, the amendments under consideration will not apply and the current provisions of the Plan will continue to take effect.

For further information, please refer to the report prepared by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 125-ter of the Consolidated Finance Act on the fifth item on the agenda of the Shareholders' Meeting and the information document prepared in accordance with the applicable regulations to reflect the changes described above.

For the foregoing reasons, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote in favour of the proposal to approve the amendments to the 2022-2024 Stock Option Plan, under the terms described in the report of the Board of Directors and resulting from the information document prepared pursuant to the applicable regulations.

EXTRAORDINARY SESSION

Agenda item 6. Use of part of the legal reserve to cover the loss for the year - Waiver of the obligation to reinstate it pursuant to the rules on tax suspension restriction.

At the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, the coverage of the loss for the year 2023 was submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting through full utilisation of the Additional Paid-in Capital and withdrawal from the Legal Reserve in the amount of € 419,691,100.41.

It is noted that the Legal Reserve is subject to tax suspension up to the amount of €1,834,666,727.25, of which:

  • (i) € 468,944,256.66 pursuant to Law No. 72/1983,
  • (ii) € 716,378,104.85 pursuant to Law No. 342/2000, and
  • (iii) € 649,344,365.75 pursuant to Law No. 413/1991.

The Board of Directors, insofar as it may be necessary, proposes that the reduction of the legal reserve of € 419,691,100.41 by withdrawal of the aforementioned amount should be considered final, excluding any obligation of subsequent replenishment with future profits in relation to the provisions on tax suspension restriction. On this point, the shareholders are called upon to pass a resolution in extraordinary session, pursuant to Article 6, paragraph 2 of Law No. 72 of March 19, 1983, to the extent that this provision is applicable. However, the obligation to replenish the legal reserve until it has reached one-fifth of the share capital pursuant to Article 2430 of the Civil Code remains unaffected.

Therefore, the Promoter solicits Shareholders to grant proxy to vote in favour of the proposal to approve the reduction of the corresponding equity items on a definitive basis, excluding their subsequent replenishment, without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2430 of the Italian Civil Code.

3 Voting proxies not issued in accordance with the Proposals specified in item 1 of this Section.

Since the solicitation of proxies is promoted by TIM, pursuant to Article 138, paragraph 2, of the Issuers' Regulation, the Promoter is required to exercise its vote - through the Delegated Entity and, in turn, through sub-proxy to the Designated Representative - even if the proxy is not issued with voting instructions in accordance with its Proposals (multi-way proxy). Therefore, if the solicited person has given a proxy to vote for proposals that differ from those made by the Promoter, the Designated Party shall exercise the vote in absolute conformity with the instructions received from the solicited party;

4 Highlighting of any other information necessary to enable the party solicited to make an informed decision on the granting of proxy.

Nothing else to point out.

Section IV - Information on the granting and revocation of proxy

1 Validity of the voting proxy.

For the proxy to be valid, the Proxy Form must be signed and dated:

  • in the case of a natural person, by the person entitled to vote at the Shareholders' Meeting;
  • in the case of a legal entity, by the person legally representing it and entitled to vote at the Shareholders' Meeting.

In relation to participation and voting by the eligible voters, please note that:

  • (a) Pursuant to Article 83-sexies of the Consolidated Finance Act, entitlement to participate in the Shareholders' Meeting and to exercise voting rights is certified by a communication to the Issuer, made by the intermediary adhering to the centralized management system of Monte Titoli S.p.A., in favour of the person entitled to vote, on the basis of the evidence relating to the end of the accounting day of the seventh trading day prior to the date set for the Shareholders' Meeting in first call (April 12, 2024 - record date);
  • (b) only those who hold the right to vote on that date (April 12, 2024) shall be entitled to participate in and vote at the Shareholders' Meeting.

The persons entitled to vote and who issue the proxy must request their intermediary to notify the Issuer, within the terms and in the manner provided for by applicable law, of their entitlement to participate in the Shareholders' Meeting and exercise their voting right.

Pursuant to Article 135-novies, paragraph 2, of the Consolidated Finance Act, in the event that the Shareholder holds shares deposited in several securities accounts, they may delegate a different representative for each securities account; may also delegate a single representative for all accounts.

2 Deadline by which the Proxy Form must be received by the Delegated Entity and how to send it to the Promoter.

The Proxy Form must be received by the Promoter, through the Delegated Entity Morrow Sodali, by no later than 11:59 p.m. on April 21, 2024 (the "Submission Deadline"), by one of the following means (the "Submission Methods"):

Morrow Sodali S.p.A. Via XXIV Maggio, 43 00187 Rome To the attention of the Dipartimento Retail

In the event that the proxy is sent by electronic mail, without prejudice to the validity of the proxy thus submitted, it is recommended, in order to facilitate operational activities, to send by post or hand-deliver to Morrow Sodali the original, or send an electronically signed document, pursuant to Article 20, paragraphs 1-bis and 1-ter, of Legislative Decree No. 82 of March 7, 2005. Together with the Proxy Form, the following must also be submitted:

  • (i) in the case of natural persons, a photocopy of their ID document, and
  • (ii) in the case of legal persons, a photocopy of the certificate issued by the Companies Register or the special power of attorney, showing the powers of representation of the person signing the proxy in the name and on behalf of the legal person;

(iii) copy of the notice of share ownership sent by the intermediaries to the Company.

The Promoter assumes no liability for the failure to vote in connection with proxies received after the Deadline for Proxies or proxies which, although received by the Deadline, do not fully comply with the law.

3 Exercise of the vote by the Promoter in a manner other than that proposed.

Pursuant to the applicable regulatory provisions, including Article 138, paragraph 2, of the Issuers' Regulation, and since Articles 137, paragraph 3, and 138, paragraph 4, of the Issuers' Regulation do not apply, since the Promoter is also the issuer, as well as in accordance with Consob Communication no. 3/2020 of April 10, 2020, since this is a shareholders' meeting in which voting rights may be exercised exclusively through the Designated Representative, the Promoter may in no event vote - through the Delegated Entity and, in turn, through sub-proxy to the Designated Representative - in a manner other than in accordance with the instructions indicated in the Proxy Form, also in the event of the occurrence of significant circumstances, unknown at the time of granting the proxy and which cannot be communicated to the solicited party, such as to lead the latter to believe that, had they known them, they would have given different voting instructions.

4 Revocation of the voting proxy.

Proxies are revocable at any time by a written statement brought to the Promoter's attention, again through the Delegated Entity, according to the aforementioned Granting Terms, no later than 11:59 p.m. on April 21, 2024.

Declarations of Responsibility

Without prejudice to the information on the items on the agenda made available to the Issuer in accordance with applicable law, the Promoter declares that the information contained in this Proxy Statement and in the Proxy Form is sufficient to enable the solicited party to make an informed decision on the granting of the proxy.

* * *

The Promoter is also responsible for the completeness of the information disseminated in the course of the solicitation.

* * * This Proxy Statement was submitted to Consob at the same time as its distribution to the recipients of the solicitation.
