Item No. 1 of the agendaProposal to delegate the Board of Directors, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, for a term of five years from the date of the relevant resolution, with the power to increase the share capital free of charge in tranches, pursuant to article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, by issuing not more than 2,800,000 ordinary shares, for an amount not exceeding Euro 560,000, at a value equal to the par value of the Moncler's shares on the date of execution of the capital increase, to be entirely charged to the share capital, to be assigned to the employees of Moncler S.p.A. and of its subsidiaries, which are beneficiaries of the 2018-2020 incentive plan concerning the ordinary shares of Moncler S.p.A., named "2018-2020 Performance Shares Plan"; subsequent amendment of article 5 of the By-laws currently in force.

Dear Sirs,

This report is issued pursuant to article 125-ter of the Legislative Decree of February 24, 1998, No. 58 (the "Consolidated Financial Act") and article 72 of the CONSOB Regulation on issuers adopted pursuant to resolution No. 11971 of May 14, 1999 and subsequent amendments and integrations (the "Issuers' Resolution").

The Board of Directors has called this extraordinary shareholders meeting in order to resolve upon the granting, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, to the Board of Directors of a proxy, for a term of five years from the date of the relevant resolution, empowering the same to resolve upon a gratuitous and divisible capital increase, pursuant to article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, of maximum Euro 560,000 with the issuance of a maximum number of 2,800,000 ordinary shares, at a value equal to the par value of the Moncler shares on the date of the execution of the capital increase, to be entirely charged to capital account, to be awarded to the subordinate employees of Moncler S.p.A. and its subsidiaries which may be appointed as beneficiaries of the 2018-2020 incentive plan concerning the ordinary shares of Moncler S.p.A. named "2018-2020 Performance Shares Plan" (the "Plan"), with the subsequent amendment of article 5 of the by-laws currently in force.

1. Reasons for the capital increase

The meeting of the Board of Directors held on February 26, 2018 has resolved upon, among others, the submission to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, as second item of the agenda an incentive and loyalty plan named "2018-2020 Performance Shares Plan" (the "Plan"), addressed to the executive directors, executive with strategic responsibilities, employees, collaborators and consultants of Moncler S.p.A. ("Moncler" or the "Company") and its subsidiaries pursuant to article 93 of the Consolidated Financial Act, to be executed through the gratuitous allocation of Moncler ordinary shares (the "Shares"), upon achievement of certain performance targets (the "Performance Targets").

The details of the Plan are described in the relevant directors' report and the information memorandum drafted in compliance with article 84-bis of the Issuers' Regulation at the Shareholders' disposal for the assessment thereof in light of the above mentioned item of the agenda of the ordinary shareholders' meeting.

The object of the Plan is, namely, the granting of the so-called Moncler Rights which give the right, in case certain performance targets are achieved, to gratuitously receive one (1) Share per each Moncler Right granted, it being understood that the number of Shares to be allocated will be defined on the basis of the level of achievement of the above mentioned Performance Targets.

Such Shares shall result from a capital increase – to be executed through profits or reserves pursuant to article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code – or from the allocation of own shares.

Therefore, for the purposes of securing a sufficient amount of Shares to be allocated to the subordinate employees of Moncler S.p.A. and its subsidiaries which may be appointed as beneficiaries of the Plan upon achievement of the Performance Targets, the Board of Directors hereby suggests granting, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, the same Board of Directors a proxy, for a term of five years from the date of the relevant resolution, empowering the same to resolve upon a gratuitous and divisible capital increase, pursuant to article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, of maximum Euro 560,000 with the issuance of a maximum number of 2,800,000 ordinary shares, at a value equal to the par value of the Moncler shares on the date of the execution of the capital increase, to be entirely charged to capital account, to be awarded to the subordinate employees of Moncler S.p.A. and its subsidiaries which may be appointed as beneficiaries of the Plan.

The grounds for the adoption of the Plan are based on the need to keep on offering a remuneration system which, on the one hand, builds loyalty and encourages managers and key individuals of the Group, linking the variable part of the relevant compensation to the actual performance of the Company and the creation of new value, orienting the key personnel towards medium-long term results and, on the other hand, may attract highly qualified resources within the management team.

2. Features of the capital increase reserved for the subscription by the beneficiaries of the Plan

For the execution of the capital increase serving the Plan, it is hereby proposed to empower the Board of Directors, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, to resolve upon a gratuitous and divisible capital increase through profits and reserves to be identified by the Board of Directors, pursuant to article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code, of maximum Euro 560,000 with the issuance of a maximum number of 2,800,000 ordinary shares, with par value equal to the Moncler shares on the date of the execution of the capital increase, to be entirely charged to capital account.

The Plan spans a three-year period (2018-2020) and provides for the allocation to the Beneficiaries of the Moncler Rights to be carried out during the 2018 financial year and the possible granting of the Shares to be performed in 2021 following the assessment of the Performance Targets. The maximum number of Shares to be allocated to the Beneficiaries is equal to No. 2,800,000.

The share capital increase pursuant to article 2349, paragraph 1 of the Italian Civil Code will have to be executed by means of profits and/or reserves as resulting from the last financial statement approved during the financial year in which the Shares are allocated. For this reason, the most effective technical means for the above purposes is empowering the Board of Directors, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, to resolve upon the gratuitous capital increase in order to serve the Plan.

The Board of Directors will be also empowered to determine, in due course and from time to time, the profits and/or reserves to be allotted to such purpose, and to adjust the relevant account books in accordance with the issuance of such shares, in compliance with the applicable laws and accounting principles.

3. Features of the newly issued shares

The Shares allocated to the beneficiaries of the Plan have regular dividend rights and, therefore, the rights related thereto are due to each beneficiary as of the date when the same becomes the holder of such Shares, together with the relevant dividend coupon in force on such date.

4. Amendments to article 5 of the by-laws

As a consequence of the proposed resolution, article 5 of the by-laws currently in force will have to be amended by adding a paragraph providing for the proxy to be granted to the Board of Directors, pursuant to article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, in order to empower the same to gratuitously increase the share capital in accordance with article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code.

It is hereby pointed out that the proposed amendment to the by-laws does not grant to the Shareholders who do not vote in favor of such amendment the right to withdraw, since it does not ground any reason for their withdrawal pursuant to article 2437 of the Italian Civil Code.

Here below is the wording currently in force of article 5 of the by-laws of Moncler currently in force, against the wording hereby proposed by the Board of Directors (through the addition of a paragraph 5.6 as per the first item of the Extraordinary Shareholders' meeting of the date hereof):
