as Chairman of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee, I am pleased to present to you the Report on the Remuneration Policy 2022 and Remuneration Paid for the Year 2021, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 10 March 2022.
Also this year we intend to communicate in a comprehensive, clear and transparent manner to all stakeholders the principles on which our remuneration policy is based, as well as the systems and processes that govern it, and the results of its application.
During 2021, the transformation process that begun in 2020 continued, positioning Atlantia as a leading player on the international scene in the mobility infrastructure and services sector, with its mission of contributing to achieving a new mobility model, centred on people's needs and to promote increasingly intelligent, safe, sustainable and integrated mobility.
Atlantia promotes a business model for sustainable success, to the benefit of shareholders and other stakeholders. To this end, in December 2021, with the favourable vote of more than 99% of the capital present at the meeting, the principle of pursuing long-term sustainable success was incorporated into the company's articles of association as a guiding criterion for the Board of Directors' actions.
Consistently, the Remuneration Policy provides for a clear connection between remuneration and the economic, social and environmental value created. The structure of the remuneration systems favours a medium-long-term perspective and promotes the active involvement of all the issuer's employees in sharing the results achieved and the value created.
In a framework of substantial continuity with the 2021 Policy, which received broad support from shareholders with over 98% of votes in favour, the Policy proposed to shareholders for 2022 includes two new elements which reinforce Atlantia's commitment to sharing the profits of its long-term sustainable value creation.
Subject to the favourable opinion of the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April, a form of employee share ownership will be launched consisting of allotment of 250 shares per year free of charge to employees in non-managerial positions, subject to a three-year lock-up period. This structural form of stock ownership aims to share the value created over time with all of the issuer's employees. All the issuer's employees are also recipients, with remuneration opportunities consistent with their positions, of the annual incentive plan (MBO), thus sharing with management the pursuit of the key economic, strategic, social and environmental objectives through which Atlantia guides the development of its investment portfolio.
The Policy requires the Chief Executive Officer and their first line of executives to build up an investment in shares of the issuer within an appropriate timeframe and to hold it continuously over time. For
the Chief Executive Officer, the investment is equal to a multiple of 2x fixed remuneration, in line with the European best practices.
The Report contains an initial Section dedicated to describing the Company's Remuneration Policy for the year 2022, including information on the structure and amounts of the remuneration for the Board of Directors to be elected by the Shareholders' Meeting on 29 April.
The second Section provides information on remuneration paid in 2021, consistently with the Remuneration Policy approved by shareholders last year, which the company complied with without exceptions.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the members of the Committee, Andrea Boitani, Giuseppe Guizzi, Anna Chiara Invernizzi and Carlo Malacarne for their contributions. Lastly, I would like to thank you, the shareholders, for dedicating your attention to the Report, in the hope that it will meet with your full approval at the Shareholders' Meeting.
Best regards,
Chairman of Atlantia's Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee

This Report on the Remuneration Policy and Remuneration Paid (the "Report") is divided into two sections:
Section I: the "Policy" for the 2022 financial year for the Directors, Statutory Auditor and Top Management of the issuer;
Section II: the "Report" for the 2021 financial year which provides detailed information on the remuneration paid during the year.
In light of the changes made to Article 123-ter of the Italian Consolidated Law on Finance through Legislative Decree No. 49 of 10 May 2019, Section I is subject to a binding vote at the Shareholders' Meeting, and Section II is subject to an advisory vote at the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the Annual Financial Statements as at 31 December 2021.
The Report, which was approved by Atlantia's Board of Directors on 10 March 2022 on the proposal of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee (the "Committee"), has been prepared in compliance with current legal and regulatory requirements:
• Article 123-ter of Legislative Decree No. 58/98 implemented in the Italian Consolidated Law on Finance ("CLF");
The Company has also adopted this Policy in compliance with Consob Regulation No. 17221/2010, as amended by Resolution No. 21624 of 10 December 2020, regarding related party transactions, including pursuant to the Related Party Transaction Procedure ("Related Party Procedure") adopted by Atlantia and available on the "Governance" section of its website.
This Report is sent to Borsa Italiana and made available to the public at Atlantia's registered office (at Piazza San Silvestro 8, Rome) and on the Company's website by the twenty-first day prior to the date of the Shareholders' Meeting.
1 - It should be noted that in December 2020, Consob published the final version of the Issuers' Regulations, effective as of 1 January 2021.

Vision, Mission and Strategy Atlantia is a holding company that holds stakes in companies that manage transport infrastructures and offer mobility services on four continents around the world. The transport infrastructure is essential for economic and social development and growth, as they connect people, goods, communities and territories. Against a backdrop of increasingly important global challenges, such as climate change, population growth and social pressure for a fairer distribution of resources, and the rapid transformation brought about by digital technology, the mobility eco-system is undergoing a major transformation. We are committed to contribute the achievement of a new mobility model centred on people's needs and capable of generating a positive social, environmental, and economic impact. Our aim is to meet people's basic need to travel, offering them the possibility of doing so in an increasingly sustainable, safe, seamless and smart way. It is our mission to create economic and social value for the communities and territories in which we operate through active investment in cutting-edge assets, capable of offering mobility services that make the travel experience unique and simplify everyday life. Innovation and sustainability are the drivers of the Company's growth in the long term, within the framework of values that inspire our actions. Atlantia has defined new guidelines for its development, aimed among other things at strengthening its positioning in the sectors where it currently operates and expansion into adjacent sectors according to a logic of synergistic diversification and resilience of its portfolio, with sustainability and innovation as the lowest common denominator of value creation for all its stakeholders.

Governance
In pursuing sustainable success, our corporate governance model is geared towards maximising value for shareholders and all stakeholders, the constant monitoring of business risks and the highest level of transparency towards the market, and is aimed at ensuring integrity and fairness in decisionmaking processes. We have adopted a traditional system of administration, which clearly distinguishes roles and responsibilities. The Board of Directors guides the company, pursuing its long-term sustainable success and is supported by four committees with proposing and advisory functions: the Control and Risk and Corporate Governance Committee, the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee, the Committee of Independent Directors for Related Party Transactions and, lastly, the Sustainability Committee, established on 18 February 2021 to strengthen the Company's commitment to social and environmental sustainability issues. During 2021, an action plan was completed, which is aimed at incorporating the principles and recommendations of Borsa Italiana's new Corporate Governance Code, which Atlantia adheres to, into its corporate governance system. The main milestones reinforcing corporate governance concerned the adoption of the Engagement Policy aimed at establishing transparent communication and maintaining a constant and ongoing relationship with shareholders, investors and the company's main stakeholders; the adoption of the Responsible Investment Policy aimed at employing a structured approach to the use of resources and the management of the investment portfolio, combining a positive social and environmental impact with return on investment; the adoption of the Diversity, Equality and Inclusion Guidelines aimed at ensuring equal opportunities, including remuneration, and using the diversity of the workforce as a driver of innovation and continuous improvement.

Politica di remunerazione The Remuneration Policy supports the Company's sustainable growth strategy by pursuing the aims described below.
Transparency – Providing stakeholders with a clear understanding of remuneration systems, encouraging dialogue by acting constructively on any dissent expressed on remuneration systems, regularly monitoring best market practices with a view to continuous improvement, ensuring a high level of transparency towards all stakeholders.
Value – Gearing towards the creation of long-term value, through incentive systems. Variable remuneration plans are linked to short- and medium-term metrics that underpin the growth of economic, social and environmental value. The long-term component of variable remuneration plans has a higher weight than the short-term component, is share-based and provides for the retention of 50% of the shares deriving from incentive plans for a period of two years following their vesting. Atlantia encourages the sharing of results achieved with management and, more generally, with its employees, favouring a long-term perspective. In this regard, the Company promotes employee share ownership.
Sustainability – Promoting a sustainable development model for shareholders and other stakeholders Our commitment to creating economic and social value for the communities and territories in which we operate is reflected in the Remuneration Policy by anchoring incentive plans to objectives that are consistent with our guidelines for sustainable business development, with particular reference to fighting against climate change, the relationship of trust with stakeholders, gender equality and the safety, health and well-being of our employees.

Providing for a requirement on share ownership (so called Share Ownership Guidelines) for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and for Top Management, including Executives with
The Remuneration Policy for the year 2022 is in substantial continuity with the structure approved in 2021 with over 98% approval by the shareholders. The new aspects introduced strengthen the policy framework by taking into account feedback received from the market on potential further aspects for improvement. For example, the Share Ownership Guidelines have been adopted as a means of further aligning interests in the long term.
The graph below shows the voting trend in relation to Section I of the Report on the Remuneration
Policy over the 2019 to 2021 period.
The pay mix takes into account:
Balancing the fixed component, which is designed to compensate for the role held, and the shortand long-term variable component, designed to ensure that there is a strong connection between remuneration, performance and value creation for shareholders and other stakeholders.
More than 50% of the CEO's target variable remuneration is paid in shares over a multi-year period, consistent with the orientation towards creating sustainable value over time.

The CEO is also General Manager of Atlantia. The Company's Top Management consists of positions reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chairman and includes the following Executives with Strategic Responsibilities: Directors of Investments, Chief Strategy & Corporate Development Officer, CFO in their capacity as Manager responsible for preparing the accounting documents. The Internal Audit Director, reporting to the Chairman, is the recipient of variable remuneration systems differentiated from the rest of the Top Management and consistent with their scope of responsibility (more information in section 4.5.4) and is not included in the graph.

The fixed component is determined in consideration of the professional content, responsibilities and possible delegated powers associated with the role, taking into account practices and market data for similar roles.
For the Chairman and for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, the fixed component is established by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors, on the proposal of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee. For the term of office of the Board of Directors to be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, the fixed remuneration will be determined by the Board of Directors in relation to the powers and duties conferred in light of the market benchmarks set out in section 4.2 "Market references".
The annual variable component (MBO Plan – Management by Objectives) rewards the achievement of results in relation to a combination of economic-financial, strategic-operational and sustainability objectives.
Assessment of individual performance quality, measured through a structured and transparent process, can determine the increase or decrease of the accrued MBO incentive within a range of +/-10% (it does not apply to the CEO and General Manager).
There is a cap on the incentives that can be granted.
Chief Executive Officer and General Manager: maximum 100% of fixed remuneration.
Top Management: maximum 70% of fixed remuneration (excluding the +/- 10% individual performance multiplier).

The Executives with Strategic Responsibilities of the Company are:
On 14 October 2021, Atlantia resolved to end the management and coordination of its companies, in line with the process of gradual independence of its subsidiaries and its role as a strategic investment holding company.
This is the logic behind the decision, already taken last year, not to include the management of its subsidiaries in the Policy. The latter is in fact a beneficiary of remuneration policies that are separate from those of the issuer and governed by its own management body and consistent with the specific reference context and the remuneration principles inspired by international best practice promoted by Atlantia, which sets them out in guidelines whose adoption is recommended to the management bodies of its subsidiaries in line with the market context, strategic priorities and the specific risk profile of each business. The main elements of these guidelines provide for:
In line with its role as a holding company for strategic investments, Atlantia monitors the state of actual implementation of the guidelines.

Atlantia places central importance on the evaluations expressed by each stakeholder and is committed to promoting opportunities for discussion to make the Company's remuneration plans and instruments increasingly transparent and understandable. To this end, an Engagement Policy3 was approved by the Board of Directors in 2021, which also includes dialogue on remuneration issues. The Engagement Policy is guided by the following principles:
During 2021, the Company analysed the shareholders' voting results on the Remuneration Points raised on the 2021 Policy mainly related to the possibility of paying discretionary bonuses. These bonuses have therefore been limited both in terms of their quantity and in terms of the governance process that provides for the ex ante definition of performance metrics and compliance with the criteria set out in Paragraph 4.5.
Policy and the voting instructions expressed by the proxy advisors, and acknowledged the feedback received, reinforcing the alignment of interests between the Top Management of the Company in particular, and the issuer's employees more generally, through:
The Company's 2021 Remuneration Policy was approved at the 28 April 2021 Shareholders' Meeting, with 98.36% of attendees voting in favour. The graph below shows the votes in respect of Section I of the Report on the Remuneration Policy over the 2019 to 2021 period. Voting trends show growing support for our Remuneration Policy and, based on the broad support received in 2021, Atlantia has deemed it appropriate to confirm the remuneration structure already adopted, while seeking to intercept further areas of improvement with the changes made.
The analyses of votes cast at the shareholders' meeting were also supplemented by an examination of the feedback received from stakeholders during the engagement process carried out in 2021. The changes introduced in the 2022 Remuneration Policy also take into account such feedback.



The Policy establishes principles, guidelines and rules relating to the remuneration of:
The Committee performs functions in investigating, advising and making proposals to the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Committee is entrusted with the following tasks:
of the Board of Directors and to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company, including Executives with Strategic Responsibilities;
• the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Supervisory Board.
The establishment of Atlantia's Remuneration Policy involved many people and corporate bodies, in accordance with the Company's articles of association and applicable law.
The composition, duties and operating procedures of this Committee are defined by a specific Regulation last updated in February 2021 (https://www.atlantia.com/en/governance/boardcommittees/nomination-remuneration-and-humancapital-committee).
The Committee consists of five non-executive directors, all of whom are independent.
All members have specific and appropriate expertise in financial matters and/or remuneration policies.
The Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee meets periodically and as often as necessary to perform its functions according to an annual calendar that typically follows the following cycle of activities:

With regard to the activities carried out in 2021 by the Committee, reference is made to Section II of Directors any amendments to the incentive plans aimed at safeguarding the Company's primary objectives, in the spirit of preserving convergence between the interests of the beneficiaries and the interests of the shareholders in the common intent of creating sustainable value also in consideration of the interests of the other stakeholders, without prejudice to compliance with legal and regulatory restrictions and the rights of the participants.
Such exception may be made, for example:
• in the event of exceptional and/or extraordinary circumstances such as, for example, events of an extraordinary and/or non-recurring nature and/ or not attributable to the typical activity of the Company and/or the group, which are considered particularly significant and/or not provided for in the management plans, which entail a significant change in the group's perimeter, or significant changes in the macroeconomic and/or
this Report and to the 2021 Corporate Governance Report (available on the Company's website).
For 2022, the Committee is scheduled to hold at least eight meetings, three of which have already been held as of the date this Report was approved.
As provided for in Article 123-ter, Paragraph 3-bis of the Italian Consolidated Law on Finance and Article 84-quater of the Issuers' Regulations, in the event of exceptional circumstances that may compromise the Company's long-term interests or its ability to stay on the market, Atlantia reserves the right to make temporary exceptions to the Remuneration Policy most recently approved by shareholders, limited to the components of remuneration relating to the annual and multiannual variable remuneration plans and pay mix. In this case, also with the possible assistance of thirdparty and independent experts, the Committee may submit for the approval of the Board of competitive scenario, extraordinary events with a significant impact beyond the management's control;


Atlantia is a holding company that holds stakes in companies that manage transport infrastructures and offer mobility services on four continents around the world. Transport infrastructures are essential for economic and social development and growth, as they enable connecting people, goods, communities and territories. Against a backdrop of increasingly important global challenges such as climate change, population growth and social pressure for a fairer distribution of resources, and value for the communities and territories in which we operate through active investment in cuttingedge assets, capable of offering mobility services that make the travel experience unique and simplify everyday life. Innovation and sustainability are the drivers that guide the Company's growth in the long term, within the framework of values that inspire our actions. The Remuneration Policy, with an annual duration, was established with criteria that are substantially similar to those used by the Company to determine the terms and conditions of the remuneration package of its employees, applying for them remuneration policies that provide for a remuneration structure that essentially the same (and, therefore, also providing for forms of variable remuneration and, in general, corporate welfare

It is our commitment to contribute to achieving a new mobility model, centred on people's needs and capable of generating a positive social, environmental and economic impact. Our aim is to meet people's basic need to move around, offering the opportunity to do so in an increasingly sustainable, safe, seamless and smart way. Our mission is to create economic and social tools) taking into account the legal and contractual provisions applicable from time to time, as well as the remuneration references resulting from specific benchmarks provided by external providers that are separate in relation to the different types of roles. The Remuneration Policy, which is consistent for all the Company's employees, has been developed considering the remuneration and working conditions of the employees, supports the business strategy by pursuing the objectives set out below.
The structure of the Remuneration Policy is divided into fixed and variable, monetary and equity components, and completed by non-cash components (benefits), as illustrated in Chapter «4 Remuneration components".
Atlantia promotes dialogue with stakeholders, monitors and acts constructively on any dissent expressed on remuneration systems, regularly monitors best market practices to constantly improve the Remuneration Policy and its implementation, and is committed to ensuring a high
Atlantia promotes the creation of long-term value, including through its incentive systems. Variable remuneration plans are linked to short and medium-term metrics that underpin the growth of economic, social and environmental value. The long-term component of variable remuneration plans has a higher weight than the short-term component, is share-based and provides for the retention of 50% of the shares deriving from incentive plans for a period of two years following their vesting. Atlantia encourages the sharing of results achieved with management and, more generally, with its employees, favouring a long-term view. In this

The remuneration provided for Atlantia's employees, including the current executive directors and Top Management may consist of:
The definition of Remuneration components is inspired by the following principles:
The variable component of remuneration has the following characteristics:
Atlantia periodically checks whether the remuneration packages are in line with market practices.
In particular, with regard to remuneration benchmarks, the independent advisor, Willis Towers Watson (WTW), provided information relating to market trends, practices and remuneration levels in order to monitor the appropriateness of the remuneration of non-executive directors, the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and Top Management.
Comparison with the market has an important role in the process of developing the remuneration policy. The competitiveness of the Remuneration Policy is tested against a number of reference markets for similar roles, with the aim of making consistent comparisons.
For the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, the reference market used for developing the 2022 Policy (WTW GECAT Report on Board Compensation Europe 2021) consists of a panel of approximately 320 listed European companies, representing the major European financial markets (BEL 20, CAC 40, DAX, ISEQ 20, MIB40, AEX, IBEX 35, SMI, FTSE 100). There was a special focus on the practices of companies belonging to the MIB 40

| Long-term variable component (LTI) |
A variable component denominated in shares, whose payment depends on the degree to which overall shareholder return and sustainability objectives are achieved. Equity incentives accrue according to an incentive curve consistent with the level of challenge of the result achieved and the number of shares attributable to beneficiaries is predetermined in a maximum quantity. Incentive levels are consistent with the role covered. Beneficiaries are employees in managerial leadership positions. |

| Employee Share Ownership Plan |
A component involving allotment of shares free of charge to Atlantia's employees. Beneficiaries in managerial positions, including the Chief Executive Officer, Top Management and all employees who already receive long-term incentives are entitled to receive a grant of 1 share per year for the 2022-2027 period, subject to continued employment. Other employees are entitled to receive 250 shares per year for the 2022-2027 period, subject to continued employment. The adoption of this programme is subject to the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting called for 29 April 2022.

index. The same reference market was used for the remuneration of non-executive directors and the Chairman (WTW Report Non-Executive Director's pay - European Framework 2021).
In addition, for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, a second, smaller reference panel (peer group) was used, which is comparable to Atlantia in terms of size and type of business (holding companies).
Finally, the peer groups used by the proxy advisors ISS and Glass Lewis (market peer group for Glass Lewis), included in the reports issued for the Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2021, were also analysed for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager.
For Top Management, the reference market WTW used and processed is a peer group of 35 European companies including industrials and investment holding companies of a size comparable to Atlantia.
The competitiveness of remuneration opportunities is also monitored periodically for the rest of the Company's managers and professionals.
As regards the remuneration of the directors who will be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, on the basis of the preliminary activities carried out by the Committee in relation to market benchmarks and in consideration of the fact that such remuneration must be appropriate to the expertise, professionalism and commitment required by the importance of the role covered, the Board of Directors has recommended that the Shareholders' Meeting maintain the current remuneration for the office of director. Also the structure and the amounts of the remuneration of the board committees remain unchanged.
With regard to the remuneration of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Guidance Opinion to the shareholders for appointing the new Board of Directors when its term expires with the approval of the financial statements as at 31/12/2021 recommends that the Chairman to be appointed should have a non-executive role and not hold significant delegated powers. On the basis of the preliminary activities carried out by the Committee in relation to market benchmarks and in consideration of the commitment required due to the importance of the office, the Board of Directors considers that the fixed remuneration that will be established should be consistent with Italian and European market practices and that the Chairman should not be a beneficiary of any form of variable remuneration.
With regard to the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, who will be appointed on the occasion of the renewal of the Board of Directors whose term expires with the approval of the financial statements as at 31/12/2021, on the basis of the preliminary activities carried out by the Committee in relation to market benchmarks, the Board of Directors considers that the fixed remuneration to be established should be between the first quartile and the median of the markets analysed, i.e. in a range between EUR 900,000 and EUR 1,100,000.
In relation to the variable component of the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer and Top Management, the Board has deemed the levels already approved in the 2021 Remuneration Policy to be consistent with the market and they are unchanged in the 2022 Remuneration Policy.
The following table shows the target and maximum pay mix for 2022 for Atlantia's Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and Top Management (average values). For the Chairman, in line with the recommendation made by the Board of Directors in its Guidance Opinion to shareholders regarding the non-executive role of the Chairman to be appointed when the Shareholders' Meeting appoints the new Board of Directors on 29 April, no variable remuneration is provided.

The CEO is also General Manager of Atlantia. The Company's Top Management consists of positions reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chairman and includes the following Executives with Strategic Responsibilities: Directors of Investments, Chief Strategy & Corporate Development Officer, CFO in their capacity as Manager responsible for preparing the accounting documents. The Internal Audit Director, reporting to the Chairman, is the recipient of variable remuneration systems differentiated from the rest of the Top Management and consistent with their scope of responsibility (more information in section 4.5.4) and is not included in the graph.

The fixed gross annual remuneration component gives value to skills and experience and remunerates management according to their role and responsibilities.
Changes over time in the fixed component of remuneration are implemented on the basis of criteria and assessments that take into account the role, the level of performance over time, and the Remuneration levels recorded for similar roles in the reference market.
The remuneration for the special role of Chairman is established by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors, on the proposal of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee. The remuneration of the Chairman, Mr Fabio Cerchiai, in office until the approval of the financial statements as at 31/12/2021, comprises of the following:
With regard to the remuneration of the Chairman to be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, the Board of Directors will determine the remuneration in consideration of the market benchmarks set out in Paragraph 4.2 "Market references".
The fixed remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager is established by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors, on the proposal of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee. The remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, Mr Carlo Bertazzo, in office until the approval of the financial statements as at 31/12/2021, is broken down as follows:
As regards the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer to be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, the Board of Directors will determine such remuneration in consideration of the market benchmarks set out in Paragraph 4.2 "Market references".
As an executive of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager is entitled to the indemnities due for travel in line with the provisions of the National Collective Labour Agreement for executives of companies that produce goods and services.
The fixed remuneration of Top Management consists of a fixed gross annual component (Gross Annual Salary - GAS), consistent with the role held.
The variable component of the remuneration packages consists of two main elements: annual bonus (MBO Plan) and long-term incentives (2021- 2023 Stock Grant Plan, approved at the 29 April 2021 Shareholders' Meeting).
These plans have value creation as their main objective, taking into account the interests of the various stakeholders and consistent with the Company's business strategy.
In addition, the Company's Remuneration Policy may provide for the recognition of ad hoc bonuses in favour of executive directors, Top Management, other managers and professionals. These ad hoc bonuses can be linked to the implementation of transactions of strategic importance. The possibility of ad hoc bonuses is intended to be a possibility, although not likely to be recurrent.
The process for the possible award of ad hoc bonuses is governed by the Board of Directors with the support of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee. This process requires a rigorous preliminary review of the eligibility of the transaction of a strategic nature, the potential recipients, the metrics and conditions underlying the vesting of the ad hoc bonus, and the terms and circumstances of the specific transaction of a strategic nature (terms of engagement). Specifically, this process involves:
The amount of this ad hoc bonus shall not, in any event, exceed the maximum annual value of the MBO incentive and shall be defined within an overall bonus pool for the specific transaction of a strategic nature. Any ad hoc bonus payments will be subject to claw-back clauses.

The short-term variable component consists of the MBO Plan, which is designed to align the short-term (annual) remuneration opportunities of management and other beneficiary employees with the achievement of objectives of importance to the Company, making it possible to appreciate and reward the contribution of each beneficiary to the success of the Company as a whole and of the organisational area to which they belong specifically.
The MBO Plan is directed at all Atlantia's resources, including the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and Top Management. On the other hand, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the non-executive directors are not included among the beneficiaries of the Plan.
The annual variable incentive scheme is annually reviewed by the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee which proposes to the Board of Directors the objectives, metrics and targets for the executive directors and the overall scheme for the Company's Top Management. The MBO plan follows a clear and transparent annual communication process to all participants. Each participant is assigned incentive percentages (target and maximum) based on gross annual remuneration. The incentive percentages are defined based on the role, in order to adequately balance fixed and variable remuneration according to the position held by the individual and their impact on results. The amounts of MBO actually paid are linked to the level of achievement of the performance objectives and the weight assigned to the various objectives up to a predefined maximum, beyond which no further amounts (cap) are payable. The incentive payable for intermediate results between the minimum and maximum level is calculated by interpolation. Bonus accrual requires that a minimum score of 50 points be achieved.
There is also a mechanism for linking the amount accrued as an MBO bonus to the assessment of the quality of individual contribution, through a factor that affects ±10% of the value of the final bonus. This multiplier/demultiplier is not applied to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager. The bonus paid therefore also takes into account the quality of individual performance and the effectiveness of leadership.
The MBO plan guides the beneficiaries towards achieving value drivers. Specifically, for the year 2022 it is divided into the following objectives.
For the Company's Top Management, again with reference to the year 2022, the strategicoperational objectives are consistent with those of the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and may also provide for the achievement of specific milestones on the portfolio of activities managed or on the specific activities of the function.
• Sustainability objectives, with a weight of 20%, common to all beneficiaries. For the year 2022, these objectives are broken down as follows:
For each objective, a result to be achieved at least at a threshold level is determined. If the threshold level is not met, the specific objective receives a score of 0. If, on the other hand, the objective is achieved for values between the threshold level and the target level and between the target level and the maximum value, the specific objective receives a score calculated by interpolation, in consideration of the weight of the objective itself, on a 70-100-130 point scale (threshold-target-maximum). Finally, even if the maximum level is exceeded, the score awarded will still be equal to the set maximum. The bonus payable is subject to a cap. A minimum of 50 points must be achieved for a bonus to accrue. If 50 points are achieved, a bonus of 50% of the amount payable on full achievement of the targets (target of 100 points) is paid. The achievement of all objectives at the maximum level is equivalent to the maximum achievement of 130 points which the accrual of the maximum defined bonus corresponds to. A multiplier of ±10% is applied to the final value of the incentive thus calculated, depending on the assessment of the quality of individual performance. However, this multiplier does not apply to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager. The bonus is paid in the year following the year in which it accrues in relation to the performance achieved, following approval of the financial statements at the Shareholders' Meeting.

Below are the incentive values for 2022 (as a percentage of the fixed component4) achievable through the MBO Plan, upon achievement of the threshold, target and maximum results.
The long-term variable component is intended to promote the Company's value growth and the dissemination of a culture of sustainable value creation in management's strategic and operational decisions.
As already set out in the remuneration policies of previous years, vesting of the Phantom Stock Option and 2017 Stock Grant plans (3rd cycle) and whose vesting will end on 15 June 2022 are still in progress. The 2017 Additional Incentive Plan ended its vesting period in October 2021. Details are provided of rights accrued to directors and Executives with Strategic Responsibilities in the second section of the Report.
For more information on the features of these plans, please see the information documents (available on the Company's website).
In 2021, Atlantia implemented the "2021-2023 Stock Grant Plan" approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2021. This plan involves allotting shares free of charge in return for value creation and sustainability objectives being achieved over a three-year period.
The plan provides for an annual allotment mechanism (known as a rolling approach) and is divided into three allotment cycles in the years 2021, 2022 and 2023. At the end of the vesting period of each cycle, shares are allotted free of charge to beneficiaries in relation to the level of achievement of the underlying performance conditions. According to the number of shares actually accrued, it is expected that the countervalue of the dividends paid in the three-year period will be allocated in the form of additional free shares.
The 2021-2023 Stock Grant Plan, for the second 2022 allotment cycle, is addressed to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and the Company's managerial leadership positions, including Executives with Strategic Responsibilities.
The payment of the bonus in shares is subject to the achievement of value creation objectives for shareholders and other stakeholders. The objectives are common to all beneficiaries.
The amount of the equity incentive or the number of shares, actually accrued, varies according to the degree to which the objectives are achieved, as illustrated below.

Atlantia's annualised TSR achieved over the threeyear period will determine the allocation of 35% of the number of accrued shares, as follows:
There is no accrual for this objective if the annualised TSR for the three-year period is less than 6%.
Atlantia's relative TSR will determine the 35% of the number of accrued shares. TSR is measured in relative terms relative to a peer group that includes:
The TSR achieved by the companies making up the Peer Group and by Atlantia (considering the two indices as one company) will be ordered in descending order, from the company (or index) with the best TSR result to the company with the worst result. If Atlantia is positioned:
There will be no allocation for this target if the positioning is below the median.
Performance relating to social and environmental aspects accounts for 30% of the number of accrued shares and is measured by a series of indicators, referring to the group perimeter on the allocation date, as shown in the table below.
For each of the sustainability indicators it is possible to obtain a score on a scale from 50 to 150 points (threshold-maximum) based on the result obtained compared to the expected result. Results below the threshold level result in the allocation of zero points. Achievement of an average score of at least 50 points is required for the accrual of shares related to sustainability metrics. The Board of Directors will assess the level of results achieved on the basis of the preliminary investigation prepared by the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee. The data on the performance achieved will be taken from the annual reporting and, if necessary, supplemented by specific reporting on the subject.
The sustainability indicators are consistent with the sustainability guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors and measure the performance described below:
• reducing direct C02 emissions (scopes 1 and 2) in line with the decarbonisation roadmap, which provides for a 50% reduction in direct emissions by 2030 (vs 2019) and zero emissions by 2040;
• progressive increase in the use of renewable energy (self-produced and/or purchased) with the objective of over 75% of energy used coming from renewable sources by 2030.
• improving the Company's corporate reputation in the eyes of the public, as measured by an independent third party (RepTrak), which measures reputation based on perception, trust and esteem for companies, assigning them a score on a scale of 0 to 100 points.
• increasing the proportion of women in middle and senior management positions and among directors and statutory auditors in the management, supervisory and audit bodies appointed by Atlantia in companies in its investment portfolio, in line with the DE&I Guidelines adopted by the Board of Directors.

The value of the equity incentive when the right to receive shares is granted in relation to the performance that will be achieved is defined for each beneficiary in line with the role covered and contribution to results. This incentive is a number of shares, target and maximum, calculated by taking as a reference a multiple of the fixed remuneration and the share price recorded in the month preceding the start of each plan cycle.
The incentive levels for 2022 (as a percentage of the fixed component5) of the 2021-2023 Stock Grant Plan are shown below.
A portion equal to 50% of the shares accrued in relation to the results achieved at the end of the vesting period, net of the shares that will be sold to cover the taxes and any other contribution charges (i.e. sell to cover) will be subject to a nontransferability restriction for a period of 24 months from the end of the vesting period.
There are contractual arrangements that allow the Company to demand the return, in whole or in part, of variable components of remuneration paid (or to withhold amounts subject to deferral), determined on the basis of data that may be manifestly incorrect. Manifestly incorrect data are data that are useful for the purposes of verifying the achievement of the targets under the various incentive plans, on which the accrual of rights is conditional. Manifest error that can characterise data can be:
the disbursement or allocation of the bonus was decided, in order to obtain the right to the incentive; or
• the achievement of objectives through conduct contrary to legal provisions or company regulations.
The Company also reserves a claw-back right against individuals who are found to be responsible, with malice or gross negligence, for violations of laws and/or regulations, the Code of Ethics, the Code of Conduct or company rules that are related to or have an impact on the employment relationship, affecting the related fiduciary assumption, even where such conduct has not had a direct impact on the achievement of objectives and the accrual of the right to bonus payments.

The Company may exercise the claw back right within five years from the vesting of the right to payment of the variable component or from the shares being granted.
For the Internal Audit Director and the recipients of incentives of the Company's internal audit structure, there are specific short- and long-term incentive programmes with objectives that are consistent with the scope of responsibility.
This plan is intended to create a steady base of employee-shareholders with the aim of sharing the value created with all the employees also thanks to their contribution.
All the beneficiaries of the plan are employees of the issuer and are entitled to a differentiated annual allocation of shares:
Treasury shares already in the portfolio will be used for the plan. For further details, please refer to the information document published on the Company's website (https://www.atlantia.com/en/governance/ general-meeting).
Benefits are defined as providing goods and/or services related to the employment relationship. The benefits package consists both of goods and/or services as provided in collective agreements and/ or agreements with social partners, and additional goods and/or services defined in line with market practice. The offer of social security benefits, risk and health coverage, and company cars are differentiated by role clusters. On the other hand, the welfare benefits offered are identical for all employees.
The Employee Share Ownership Plan, subject to the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, provides for the allotment of shares free of charge on an annual basis for the 2022-2024 threeyear period, and subsequently also for the 2025- 2027 three-year period, but only for those employees who have been allotted shares in the first three-year period and continue to be employed by the Company. Each allotment of shares will be subject to a threeyear non-sale restriction (i.e. lock-up).
Specifically, the following can be provided:
The 2022 Remuneration Policy establishes guidelines on share ownership (Share Ownership Guidelines) for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and the Company's Top Management, including ESRs.
These guidelines require the Chief Executive Officer to hold a number of Atlantia shares equal to at least 2 times his or hers fixed remuneration, while providing for members of Top Management for a minimum shareholding requirement of 0.5 times fixed remuneration. The relevant persons must meet the minimum shareholding requirements set out above within 5 years of the end of the 2022 financial year. For persons that may hold these positions in the future, the five-year period begins from the end of the financial year relating to the year in which they took office.

The Company does not provide for ex ante agreements for termination of office or termination of employment for executive directors, Executives with Strategic Responsibilities and Top Management, which are not in line with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code and best practices of corporate governance, in compliance with laws and collective agreements. Specifically, the following agreements are in place:
payment of a gross lump-sum indemnity equal to double the average total remuneration, understood as the sum of:
• the gross fixed remuneration received as an employee as at the date of termination;
The allocation of indemnities is in lieu of and in derogation of the payments due under the law and the National Collective Labour Agreement for managers of companies producing goods and services.
For other Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, and for Top Management in general, there are no agreements in place that regulate the economic aspects relating to the potential termination of the employment relationship at the initiative of the individual or of the Company. Any withdrawal will therefore be governed by current legislation and the National Collective Labour Agreement for managers of companies producing goods and services or by individual agreements.
On the proposal of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee, the Board may provide for executive directors and Top Management for an indemnity for the early termination of the directorship or its non-renewal and/or for the termination of the employment relationship, determined in such a way that its total amount does not exceed a certain number of years of remuneration within a maximum ceiling to exit agreements entered into equal to 24 months of average gross annual salary+MBO paid in the threeyear period prior to termination. In the absence of agreements, the Company undertakes not to pay severance indemnities exceeding 24 months' salary of the average gross annual salary+MBO paid in the three-year period prior to termination (except in cases where it is due pursuant to the application of the National Collective Labour Agreement).
Unless otherwise specified, for the effects of termination of relationship on the rights assigned under the long-term incentive plans, please refer to the Information Documents published on the Company's website.
There are no non-competition agreements in place with executive directors, Executives with Strategic Responsibilities or Top Management of the Company.


The Remuneration of the members of the current Board of Directors, appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 18 April 2019 and in office for the 2019- 2021 three-year period, is established as follows:
The remuneration of non-executive directors is not linked to the economic results achieved by the Company, nor do they participate in short and medium-to-long-term incentive plans.
The remuneration of the members of the Board Committees established within Atlantia's Board of Directors, as determined at the Shareholders' Meeting of 18 April 2019, is as follows:
As regards the remuneration of the directors to be appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 April 2022, on the basis of the preliminary activities carried out by the Committee in relation to the market benchmarks and in consideration of the fact that such remuneration must be appropriate to the skills, professionalism and commitment required in light of the importance of the role held, the Board of Directors has proposed to the Shareholders' Meeting that the current remuneration for the office of director be maintained. In addition, the structure and amounts of remuneration for board committees will also remain unchanged.

This section of the Report describes the remuneration paid, or accrued but still to be paid, in 2021, on an accruals basis, to Directors, Statutory Auditors and other Executives with Strategic Responsibilities at an aggregate level where there is no requirement for disclosure on an individual basis under applicable law.
This Section is submitted to the non-binding vote of the Shareholders' Meeting as provided under Article 123-ter of Legislative Decree No. 58 of 24 February 1998 (the "Italian Consolidated Law on Finance" or "CLF", updated according to Legislative Decree No. 49 of 10 May 2019), and which provides under Paragraph 6: "Without prejudice to the provisions of [...] the Shareholders' Meeting called [...] resolves in favour or against the second section of the report established by Paragraph 4. The resolution is not binding." In addition, the person appointed to carry out the legal audit of the financial statements verifies that the directors have prepared this Section, as required by Article 123-ter of the Italian Consolidated Law on Finance (as updated by Legislative Decree of 10 May 2019).
The remuneration items reported are consistent with the Policy approved by the Board of Directors in 2021 and submitted to the binding vote at the 28 During 2021, no severance payments were made to Executive Directors or Executives with Strategic Responsibilities. Furthermore, the approved 2021 Remuneration Policy was implemented without
April 2021 Shareholders' Meeting pursuant to Article exceptions. 123-ter, Paragraph 6 of the Italian Consolidated Law on Finance, which voted in favour of the Policy.
During the year, the relevant corporate bodies examined the main reasons for the negative vote on the second section; these were mainly connected with payments related to termination of employment, with particular reference to those made to the former General Manager. On the other hand, the shareholders welcomed the voluntary 25% reduction in fixed remuneration for the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager for the May-December 2020 period and the suspension of incentive schemes for 2020 in view of the significant impact that the Covid-19 pandemic had on the economic and financial performance. Below is a representation of the votes on remuneration paid in 2020.
In consideration of the feedback received, already from 2021 the Remuneration Policy provides that compensation in the event of termination of employment may not exceed 24 months of the average annual fixed and variable remuneration received in the previous three years, without prejudice to the provisions of the applicable National Collective Bargaining Agreement.
In accordance with Article 84-bis, Paragraph 5 of the Issuers' Regulations, this document also includes a report on the decisions taken by the Board of Directors concerning the implementation of the incentive plan approved by the Shareholders' Meeting on 28 April 2021.


During 2021, the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee met 9 times. The table below shows the main issues that the Committee addressed in 2021:
For some of the issues set out above relating to market benchmarks and the Board's self-assessment process, the Committee was assisted by consultancy firm Willis Towers Watson (now WTW) and company Egon Zehnder, whose independence of judgement it had verified in advance.
The total remuneration payable to members of the Board of Directors, Board of Statutory Auditors and other Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, pertaining to 2021, is specified in Table 1 and described below.
During the year, the Chairman of the Board of Directors received fixed remuneration for EUR 820,000 of which EUR 80,000 as Director (Paragraph 1) and EUR 740,000 as Chairman (Paragraph 3). These remunerations are in line with what is set out in the 2021 Remuneration Policy.
The Chief Executive Officer and General Manager received remuneration of EUR 790,000 in 2021, of which EUR 80,000 as Director (1st paragraph), EUR 200,000 as Chief Executive Officer (3rd paragraph) and the remainder as General Manager. These remunerations are in line with what is set out in the 2021 Remuneration Policy.
Remuneration approved for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager for sitting on the Boards of Directors of subsidiaries, associated companies or companies in which Atlantia holds an interest is paid back to the Company.
During 2021, remuneration was paid in accordance with the 2021 Remuneration Policy Report, as approved at the Company's Shareholders' Meeting held on 18 April 2019. The detailed breakdown by name is shown in Table 1.
In line with what is set out in the 2021 Remuneration Policy Report, the Company has updated the perimeter of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities identifying them, as of January 2021, in the following roles of the issuer:

Consistently with the contents of the 2021 Remuneration Policy Report, approved by the Shareholders' Meeting on 28 April 2021, the 2021 MBO Plan for the Chief Executive Officer and ESRs was structured around the following objectives:
For each objective, a result to be achieved at a threshold level is determined. If the threshold level is not met, the specific objective has been given a score of 0. If, on the other hand, the objective is achieved at values between the threshold and the target level and between the target level and the maximum value, the specific objective has been scored on a 70-100-130 point scale (thresholdtarget-maximum). If the maximum level is exceeded, the score awarded will be equal to the preestablished maximum. The bonus payable is subject to a cap. If 50 points are achieved, a bonus of 50% of the amount payable on fully achieving the targets (target of 100 points) is paid. Upon achieving all the objectives at the maximum level a maximum of 130 points are awarded, corresponding with the accrual of the maximum established bonus. A multiplier of ±10% is applied to the final value of the incentive thus calculated, depending on the assessment of the quality of individual performance. This multiplier does not apply to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager.
In line with the above, the table below shows the definitive 2021 MBO objectives for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager.

Strategic repositioning of Atlantia – Weight 30% The objective was broken down into the achievement of three milestones, whose degree of achievement was assessed by the Board of Directors on the basis of the preliminary activity of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital – To provide Atlantia with an organisational structure, resources and a centre of excellence for innovation, which is one of the strategic drivers for the Company's future development. The Board of Directors assessed that the objective was fully achieved, given that: (i) the Innovation Department was created; (ii) key figures in the organisation were hired; (iii) the Mobius innovation centre was set up in partnership with SDA Bocconi; (iv) an initial investment was made in an innovative form of mobility such as urban air mobility. – To develop the investment portfolio in sectors that are already covered and in adjacent sectors in line with the strategic development lines approved by the Board. The Board of Directors assessed that the objective was reached at the target in consideration of the development activities relating to the mobility services segment, the scouting of investment opportunities in the core sectors and in the new development areas identified which, inter alia, led to the award of the competitive process initiated by Siemens for the sale of Yunex Traffic and the establishment of Urban Blue for the development of urban air mobility infrastructures that are synergic with the airport segment; also an eco-system mobility scenario to 2030 was defined as well as the Company's relevant positioning, as explained to the market in January 2022. – To resolve the serious breach proceedings initiated by MIT in relation to the subsidiary Autostrade per l'Italia. The Board of Directors assessed that the objective was fully achieved, given that (i) an agreement for the sale of Atlantia's interest in Autostrade per l'Italia S.p.A. had been signed; (ii) the Settlement Agreement between Aspi and MIMS was signed on 14 October 2021; (iii) the CIPESS approved the amendment to the Autostrade per l'Italia Single Agreement, Additional Deed, and the new Economic and Financial Plan; (iv) the waiver/consent solicitation of Atlantia's and Autostrade per l'Italia's debt was successfully completed. All these activities are conditions precedent to the agreement for the sale referred to in point (i) above. The Board of Directors has resolved that the portion of the incentive that is part of this specific milestone will be paid after the completion of the sale of the |

The MBO incentive for the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager is EUR 678,938, subject to reaching a score of 124.75. The bonus is subject to a five-year claw back clause.
In accordance with the policy approved for the year 2021, an MBO incentive at an aggregate level of EUR 948,819 was reported as achieved for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, due to reaching an average score of 122.25 and the +/- 10% multiplier in individual performance. The economic and financial objective and the sustainability objectives have the same weight for ESRs and the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, i.e. they accounted for 50% and 20% of the bonus respectively. The other strategic-operational objectives partly overlapped with the objectives of the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager and partly related to specific milestones of the supervised functions.
All bonuses awarded and paid include claw back clauses with a five-year duration.
As described in Paragraph "3.1.3 Bonuses and other incentives" of the 2020 Report on Remuneration Paid, during 2021 the performance condition relating to an ad hoc bonus awarded to an Executive with Strategic Responsibilities in 2020 occurred, in accordance with the 2020 Policy which had suspended the ordinary incentive systems but maintained the possibility of awarding ad hoc bonuses in relation to extraordinary transactions of particular importance. In accordance with the 2020 Remuneration Policy, an incentive of EUR 160,000 was granted to an Executive with Strategic Responsibilities in connection with the successful completion of the sale of 49% of the share capital of investee company Telepass (for an amount of over EUR 1 billion). The incentive was granted with the performance condition that the closing of the transaction should take place by a certain date and at a sale price within a certain range. The performance condition was fully met.
Specifically, after the preliminary activities of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee and the approval of the Board of Directors:
Implementing the 2021 Remuneration Policy, following a resolution of the Board of Directors on 13 May 2021, rights were granted for the first cycle of the 2021-2023 Stock Grant Plan as set out in detail in Table 3A. This information is provided in accordance with the provisions of Article 84-bis, Paragraph 5 of the Issuers' Regulations.
As explained in the 2021 Remuneration Policy, this plan consists of allotment of shares free of charge in return for value creation and sustainability objectives being achieved over a three-year period. The plan provides for an annual allotment mechanism (known as a rolling approach) and is divided into three allotment cycles in the years 2021, 2022 and 2023. At the end of the vesting period of each cycle, shares are allotted free of charge to the beneficiaries in relation to the level of achievement of the underlying performance conditions. According to the number of shares actually accrued, it is expected that the value of the dividends paid in the three-year period will be allocated in the form of additional free shares.
In accordance with the characteristics described in the Information Document and the 2021 Remuneration Policy, the first plan cycle concerned the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, Top Management (including Executives with Strategic Responsibilities) and other Company executives.
As of 31 December 2021, the long-term incentive plans under vesting are:

During 2021, the gate relating to the 2nd cycle of the 2017 SOP/SGP Plans was also found not to have been reached and therefore the rights for this cycle have lapsed. This gate was represented by the accumulated FFO of the financial years 2018-2020, whose achievement was adversely affected by the COVID- 19 pandemic crisis. The company decided not to make any adjustments to the assigned performance targets.

The Board of Statutory Auditors was re-appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2021 and therefore the following were the members in office in the two terms:
The remuneration paid for the financial year 2021 to the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors in office until the approval of the financial statements for the year 2020 was approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of 20 April 2018, and the remuneration for the Board of Statutory Auditors re-appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2021 is that approved by said Shareholders' Meeting, on the proposal of the Board of Directors, which determined the remuneration on the favourable

opinion of the Nomination, Remuneration and Human Capital Committee, following a benchmark determined with the support of the advisor, Willis Towers Watson. It should be noted in this regard that starting from the current three-year period, the variable remuneration linked to participation in meetings has been eliminated, and accordingly the newly appointed Board of Statutory Auditors only receives the fixed remuneration shown in the table.
The remuneration paid to the members of the Supervisory Board during 2021 was determined by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 8 November 2019 and confirmed on 10 June 2021 when the Supervisory Board was re-appointed, as follows:
• The current Supervisory Board, appointed by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 11 June 2021, is composed of: 1 external member as coordinator, 1 standing auditor of the Issuer, 1 internal member, in line with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code. The internal member does not receive any remuneration.

The remuneration trends for 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 are shown below, considering:
7 - With reference to the remuneration paid to Mr Castellucci, the annual/three-yearly MBO not received was not considered for the year 2018. 8 - With reference to the remuneration paid to Mr Bertazzo, the amounts paid to Edizione S.r.l. first and then to Mr Bertazzo were taken into account, net of the remuneration waived.
The decrease in average remuneration is due to investment and divestment activities that have led to significant changes in the scope of consolidation in relation to the countries in which Atlantia's consolidated companies operate, with an increasing weight of countries with lower cost of living and remuneration (at 31 December 2021, 54% of employees within the scope of consolidation are in Latin America).
For more information on the composition and trend of the workforce that influences the average remuneration paid to employees, please refer to

We make reference to the ex post corrective mechanisms in respect of the previous Chief Executive Officer, Mr Giovanni Castellucci in view of the elements that have arisen, as represented in the Report on the Remuneration Policy for 2020.
In 19 December 2020, the Company filed an action before the Court of Rome seeking a declaration that:
struments under the 2014 Phantom Stock Option Plan - 2nd cycle, the 2017 Annual MBO and the 2017 Additional Incentive Plan - Phantom Stock Options - for the following gross amounts: EUR 414,178.08 (four hundred and fourteen thousand one hundred and seventy-eight Euros and eight cents), as consideration for the exercise of 169,779 Options under the 2014 Phantom Stock Option Plan - 2nd cycle; EUR 305,116.62 (three hundred and five thousand one hundred and sixteen Euros and sixty-two cents), as the 2017 Annual MBO;
In a ruling of 23 December 2021, the Court of Rome rejected Atlantia's application. According to the grounds of the ruling, it was not established that Mr Castellucci had acted wilfully, it being necessary to obtain at least a first-degree conviction in the criminal courts or submit further evidence that could be independently assessed in the civil courts.
The Company is preparing its appeal. However, it is not excluded that given the provisional enforceability of the first instance ruling, Mr. Castellucci might request payment of the amounts withheld by the Company.
On 5 October 2021, the Company also notified Mr Castellucci of the revocation of the assignment of options under the 2017 Additional Incentive Plan - Phantom Stock Option. However, following the ruling of 23 December, Mr Castellucci, through his lawyers, contested the revocation and reaffirmed his right to the assignment.


In 2021, there were no agreements on termination of employment relationship with Directors, General Managers and ESRs.
