Letter from the Chair of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee to the Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

I am pleased to present the "Report on the Remuneration Policy 2022 and remuneration paid in 2021" of doValue (hereinafter also "the Report") which will be submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2022.

The year 2021 was a record one for doValue Group, both in terms of new GBV secured (totalling almost €15 billion) as well as Gross Revenues and EBITDA (€572 million and €201 million respectively). Growth was driven by the full consolidation of doValue Greece as well as the progressive recovery post COVID, with court activity normalising and the pace of auctions accelerating. The year was also a positive one for global markets (MSCI World Equity Index posting a +20% performance in 2021), albeit with the start of 2022 markets have become more volatile on the back of sustained inflation, interest rates rising and the geopolitical tensions in Ukraine.

2021 was also the year of a new Remuneration Policy, that was born with the objective of reflecting the new Group Model and aligning the overall remuneration framework more to shareholders' and investors' long-term objectives and broader stakeholders' interests, considering the market practices and regulatory updates. The new Policy adheres to the Corporate Governance Code of Borsa Italiana, as a further measure of governance strengthening and alignment to recommended practice, is compliant with recent regulatory changes, namely the update of Issuers' Regulations published by Consob in December 2020, and is aligned with the recommendations regarding remuneration of the Corporate Governance Code from the "Corporate Governance Committee" of listed companies.

After this first year, we are proposing now to consolidate it on a longer-term perspective, with a 3-year Remuneration Policy and the horizon of three Long Term Incentive rolling cycles.

The new Remuneration Policy, with a time frame 2022-2024, will be aligned with the Strategic Business Plan, providing a high level of consistency to the whole Governance system, supporting coverage to key roles and ensuring an attractive reward proposition for individuals that are key to the longterm strategy of the Group.

With the perspective of a 3-year policy, we are keeping key features from the 2021 Remuneration Policy, while introducing some elements:

  • Keeping the variable compensation strategy for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, articulated in:
    • a short-term incentive plan (MBO), to foster annual performances, both financial and non-financial, including a special focus on competencies and behaviors, aimed to progress on alignment of doValue's values across the Group;
    • a long-term incentive plan (LTI), to leverage alignment of participants to the long-term interest of Stakeholders, attract and retain individuals who are key to the long term success of the Group and foster the "One-Group culture";
  • Increasing focus on ESG metrics, as a key element to reinforce doValue's Sustainability Plan;
  • Reviewing the peer group for relative TSR, reflecting the new character of doValue as a Group.

This Remuneration Policy is a relevant part of the business strategy of the Group, aimed to incentivise the Group's management to pursue the business objectives and to achieve the desired results in line with stakeholders' expectations.

This Report on Remuneration Policy for the period 2022- 2024 and Remuneration Paid 2021 has been approved by the Board of Directors on 28 March 2022 and is submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting, in accordance with the Provisions of article 123-ter of the Consolidated Law on Finance.

The Chairman of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee

1.3 The new Group organisation and medium-long term strategy: remuneration plan to support the business plan, with a sustainability approach

The doValue Group is a leader in the management of primarily non-performing loans for banks and public and private investors.

The Group has also developed a range of ancillary products related to servicing activity which include gathering, developing and providing property-related and legal information on borrowers and providing property services that are also related to recovery activities (e.g. participation in auctions, REOCO, etc.) and support activities for the judicial recovery of loans.

The doValue Group intends to continue to reinforce its position as leader in the credit servicing sector in Europe, leading the evolution of the credit servicing industry, leveraging a unique business model:

And with focus on:

  • Achievement of objectives for growth in earnings, return for shareholders and optimization of financial leverage;
  • Reinforcement of doValue's leadership in management services for non-performing and unlikely-to pay debts and Real Estate assets in Southern Europe;
  • Greater efficiency in operations and reduction of costs;
  • Solid Group assets under management to support the creation of value for shareholders.

In January 26th 2022 doValue published the business plan 2022-2024 based on the following strategic pillars:

Reflecting the Commitment to the enhancement, transformation and innovation support a sustainable growth while caring of the eco-system in which doValue operates.

2022 will be the core year of doTransformation, setting the base for improved operations and better margins going forward.

In December 2021, the Board of Directors, upon positive opinion of the Risk, Related Parties Transaction and Sustainability Committee, approved the 2021-2023 Sustainability Plan, and the doValue ESG framework has been further developed within the "care" strategic pillar of the business plan 2022-2024:

(market-based method)

Above priorities are reflected within annual and long-term incentive plans and within doValue Leadership model.

In this scenario, the new Remuneration Policy is strictly connected to the business plan, thus it is submitted to the 28 April 2022 AGM to be approved for the period 2022- 2024, in line with the time horizon of the Business Plan. It aims to reward sustainable performances across the Group, to foster the "One-Group culture", reinforcing the retention, attraction and engagement of key people.

The Company monitors market remuneration and incentive practices regularly. The peer group used to assess the competitiveness of the compensation levels and structure has been selected from a panel of European Listed Companies operating in businesses with similarities with doValue business portfolio and Italian Financial Institutions with complexity comparable to doValue. The following types of selection criteria have been applied:

  • Qualitative criteria (related to the listing share index and core business)
  • Quantitative criteria (related to market capitalization, number of employees, RoE)

The selected peer Group is the following: Arrow Global Group Plc, London Stock Exchange, Deutsche Boerse, Partners Group, Nexi, Euronext, Italmobiliare, Encore Capital Group, Anima, Cerved Group, Re/Max, BFF Banking Group, Pra Group, Banca Ifis.

doValue has embarked on a path to include more and more sustainability in its business strategy by promoting innovative projects and awareness campaigns towards all stakeholders.

doValue has defined a Group Total Reward proposition involving all Group personnel, which aims to value the contributions of all employees and to take into consideration the working conditions of all employees:

The Leadership Model that has been defined is key to ensure a successful engagement, commitment and entrepreneurial attitude from all doValue employees and based on the following dimensions or behaviours:

Effectiveness

Focused on innovative solutions. Always one step ahead. Result-focused objectives. Careful listening to achieve a full understanding of the task and identify sustainable solutions.

Responsibility

Professional behaviour aimed at building trust and credibility with customers, shareholders, partners, colleagues and generally in the economy and society.

doValue analyzed in detail the vote expressed by the Shareholders' Meeting of 2021, with the aim of identifying the main improvements to be implemented in the Remuneration Policy subject to approval in 2022. The outcomes of shareholder votes on the Remuneration Reports presented in the last two years are shown below.

Aiming to address shareholders and proxy investors feedback regarding 2021 remuneration policy, the proposed remuneration policy for the period 2022- 2024 is strictly linked to 2022-2024 business plan, to demonstrate the commitment to the 2024 and beyond strategic ambition.

The proposed remuneration policy highlights the following changes, to further strengthen the alignment to long term objectives in the interest of all stakeholders:

  • a 3-year Remuneration Policy is proposed, in alignment with 2022-2024 Business Plan;
  • the long term incentive plan is confirmed as an "integral" component of the reward proposition for the three years;
  • an increased link with ESG priorities, in alignment with the sustainability ambition declared within the strategic plan (focus on employees, clients and

Collaboration

Creating an inclusive environment that promotes open dialogue where every opinion is valued. Promoting team spirit. Personal commitment and commitment to others.

Leadership

Inspiring and motivating the team to achieve great results, acting as a role model and being responsible for your own actions and those of the team.

broader reputation): employee satisfaction and engagement with focus on ESG related dimensions is included both in STI and LTI. An additional metric related to the improvement on ESG Indexes is additionally included in the LTI Plan.

• more clarity is provided regarding termination clauses for good leavers for health reasons or retirement, in line with the "care" pillar of the business plan (employees focus).

In addition, an investors engagement journey has been started, aimed to continuously improve the alignment to stakeholders, including the active dialogue to provide additional details on strategic imperatives and to follow up on concerns regarding the remuneration framework.

In the following pages a detailed description of the afore mentioned topics is provided.

THE REMUNERATION POLICY GOVERNANCE PROCESS

The remuneration policy governance process

The process related to the definition, adoption and implementation of the Remuneration Policy takes into account the delegation of authorities of the various corporate bodies and functions involved and aims at ensuring that each delegated corporate body or function fully exercises the responsibilities defined by external regulations, the articles of association or internal regulations.

Also for 2022 doValue has been advised by Willis Towers Watson in preparing the Remuneration Policy.

The Remuneration Policy and paid remuneration report is reviewed by doValue's Board of Directors based on a proposal from the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and is later submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting in line with the requirements of the current regulatory framework.

The Group Human Resources Function examines the policy at least annually and eventually makes a proposal to revise this document. In making the proposal, the Function considers, in particular, the evolution of the market, strategies and risk profile, liaising to that end with the competent Functions and Corporate Bodies, which provide their contribution to the process according to their respective remits as described in more detail below. Any case, the policy is revised at least on a three-years base and consequently submitted to the AGM.

Several Corporate Bodies and Functions are involved in this process, each for its own areas of competence, in compliance and as established by the relevant regulatory requirements, the Articles of Association and the Company's internal governance model.

The role of doValue's Corporate Bodies and Company Functions, in relation to the Remuneration Policy definition, adoption and implementation process, is indicated below.

The derogation can only be decided following the Related Parties Procedure.

Exceptional circumstances refer only to situations in which an exception to the Remuneration Policy is necessary to pursue long term interests and sustainability of the company as a whole or to ensure its ability to remain on the market.

3.5. Group Chief Executive Officer

The remuneration structure of the Group's CEO is established in order to align the incentives with the Group's long-term interests, and in general, those of shareholders and investors, and to ensure the long-term sustainability of remuneration and incentive systems while taking into account changes in risks assumed by the Group over time.

The contract for the mandate 2021-2023, approved by the Board of Director of 25 February 2021 and reflected in the Remuneration policy approved by the Shareholders meeting of 29th April 2021, confirms the remuneration framework composed by fixed and variable components established so as to maximise the alignment with the interests of shareholders and the Company.

The remuneration package of the Group CEO is articulated in two components as follows:

• fixed remuneration paid for 40% on a monthly basis, in cash, and for 60% on a yearly basis (after the Shareholders' meeting which approve the Financial Statements for the previous year). The payment of the 60% component, for 2/3 in cash and 1/3 in shares, is subject to the fact that no breach of contract with the Group's customers has occurred that has led to a negative economic impact of more than 5% of Group EBITDA;

• variable remuneration, linked to the achievement of assigned objectives and paid entirely in shares (or, upon initiative of the Board of Directors, partly in shares and partly in cash) over a deferred period of three years (from the payment of the up-front instalment). The Maximum amount is set at 200% of the maximum fixed remuneration for each year.

Benefits are also assigned that are in line with the relevant policies, in addition to D&O (Directors and Officers) insurance coverage, of a stable and pre-determined nature.

3.5.1 Variable Remuneration of the Group CEO

Payment of the variable remuneration is subordinate to the preliminary and joint achievement of the gates that also guarantee the sustainability of the Group's incentive systems.

Specifically, the annual variable compensation is not awarded to the Group CEO in the event that the following entry gates identified for the purposes of activating the CEO's incentive system are not met in the specific year ("CEO Access Gates"):

• Group EBITDA at least equal to the 80% of Group

EBITDA defined in the annual plan (strategic and operational);

• DEBT to EBITDA ratio equal or lower than 3.

The above indicators will be considered net of extraordinary transactions (and related impacts) approved by the BoD during the reference year for the MBO (the "Accrual Year").

Variable remuneration is awarded based on the degree to which the assigned objectives and relevant targets are achieved. The maximum variable compensation amount is recognised upon achieving the target maximum level of all the assigned objectives.

MBO for the Group CEO: KPIs and incentive curve

1Deferred components from previous years plans follow malus conditions set within the specific plan

The 40% component is zeroed in case at least EBITDA or two additional objectives at minimum level are not achieved. The maximum variable remuneration is gradually reduced for performances not in line with the assigned objectives.

The 60% is vested as a function of the creation of value for the shareholders, measured by the average share price comparison with the target value defined by the Board of Directors for every period. (the "Target Value"). The Minimum Target Value to align to Value Creation for Shareholders is set at increasing values according to a formula which takes into account the amount of dividends distributed.

The variable remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer from both components, subject to the achieving of the assigned objectives and entry conditions, is paid fully in shares and as follows:

  • for the 40% upfront,
  • for the 60% deferred pro-quota in 3 years (20%, 20%, 20%).

In order to align the incentives with the long-term interests of the Group, and in general, those of shareholders and investors, and to ensure the long-term sustainability of the remuneration and incentive systems, and considering the performance over time of the risks assumed by the Group, any variable remuneration assigned is paid over a timeframe of several years as indicated in the diagram below:

  • an Up-Front Amount of 40% is paid after the approval, by the Shareholders' Meeting, of the financial statements relating to the Accrual Year, within the month following that approval;
  • a 60% amount is deferred pro-quota over the three financial years after the assignment of the up-front variable portion: each of the three deferred amount is equal to 20% of the awarded variable remuneration.

Shares received under the above conditions may be sold for an amount that, on a quarterly base, may not exceed the 25% of awarded shares.

The payment of deferred amounts is also subject to the verification of the following malus conditions:

• 20% reduction, if the Group EBITDA is 25% less than the values ascertained at the end of the Accrual Year. If this reduction is higher than 50%, the deferred amounts will be reduced by 50%;

• 100% reduction (zeroing of the deferred amounts) if one of the clawback clauses (see below) occurs during the deferral period.

The values of these indicators are checked as of 31 December of the year prior to the year each of the deferred amount is actually payable.

Once the achievement of the above conditions has been verified, the payment of deferred amounts is also subject to meeting the condition that the average market value of shares in the 12 months prior to the Vesting Date (i.e. the date in which the Board of Directors verifies the achievement of the vesting conditions) is not lower to the Target Value of a percentage higher than 5% (Minimum Vesting Value). If on the vesting date, the Minimum Vesting Value has not been reached, vesting will be deferred by 12

months, after which, the condition will again be verified and, if again it has not been met, vesting will be deferred a further 12 months; if at this point (24 months after the original vesting date) the Minimum Vesting Value has not been reached, the corresponding deferred amount will be cancelled.

On the Shares assigned as Deferred MBO, cash amounts equal to 50% of the dividends distributed between the MBO Allocation Date and the allocation of the Shares accrue.

After payment of the incentive, the Company reserves the right to ask the Group CEO to repay the 50% of the value of the MBO assigned (either in cash or shares) ("clawback"), if one of the following cases occurs:

  • mismanagement conducts, or omission of his duty to supervise or put in place the necessary safeguards for the sound and proper management of the Group, including significant violations of policies relating to the management of operational risks, to the detriment of the Group (the detriment is meant as a loss of 30% or higher of the Group's equity);
  • violations of laws rules and policies, or omission of his duty to supervise or put in place the necessary

safeguards for the sound and proper management of the Group, which would result in the liability of doValue in accordance with the provisions of Legislative Decree 231/2001;

  • serious violation by the CEO of the regulations applicable to transactions in which the CEO has a conflict of interests;
  • fraudulent behavior, characterized by malice or gross negligence to the detriment of doValue.

It should be noted that, further details of the plan are described in the "Remuneration Plan based on financial instruments", accompanied by the relative Information Document prepared as per article 114-bis of the Consolidated Law on Finance and submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting convened on 28 April 2022, given the use of doValue common shares.

As mentioned above, the CEO cannot be a recipient of the discretional one-off payments.

3.5.2 Payments provided in the event of leaving office or termination of the office as CEO

In keeping with best practices and the Company's policies, there is an agreement with the CEO which governs exante the economic aspects related to early termination of the corporate office and/or early termination of contract aimed at preventing the hazard of a current or future dispute, thus avoiding the risks inevitably connected with a lawsuit that could have consequences including of a reputational and image nature for the Company, ensuring at the same time greater certainty in legal relationships. The amount resulting from application of this agreement cannot exceed a maximum number of 24 months of gross total remuneration, calculated on the basis of the last fixed remuneration and the average of the variable remuneration in the previous three-year period.

Without prejudice to compliance with the aforesaid total maximum limit equal to 24 months of gross conventional total remuneration, the agreement links the amount to be paid to the CEO to the residual duration of the corporate office. In particular, in the event of early departure from office for reasons other than just cause, the amount will be equal to 25% of the last monthly fixed remuneration received, multiplied by the number of months between the date of leaving office and the month of March 2024, plus 1/12 of 50% of the last MBO assigned, multiplied by the number of months between the date of leaving office and the closing date of the 2023 financial year. The provided benefit is paid 50% in Shares and 50% in Cash and is subject to deferral period, restriction clause on sale and vesting condition defined for the MBO system.

In the event of early departure from office for reasons other than just cause during the deferral period, CEO maintains the right to receive the MBO deferred in line with the criteria described above.

In the event of termination of the office on the natural expiration date (Shareholders' meeting to approve Financial Statements of 2023), CEO maintains the right to receive the deferred parts of the MBO related to the mandate 2021-2023 within one year from the termination date, (i.e. reducing the overall deferral period for 2022 and 2023 MBO Deferral component), subject to the vesting and other conditions in line with the criteria described above, except for the -malus not driven by individual misconduct.

The variable compensation (both annual and long term) aims to align pay and sustainable performances while increasing attractiveness and supporting retention of individuals that are key to the long term success of the Group.

2 In the event of change of the area of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities during the year, including following the Group's organisational structure, the elements of the remuneration structure defined in this section represent the guiding principles of the remuneration structure, which will be organised considering the specific nature of the reference geographic market and assigned responsibility.

3.6.2.1 Short-term incentive plan: MBO

The MBO is based on the achievement of annual predetermined objectives, balanced between financial and non-financial objectives.

Sign-on bonuses, aimed at ensuring the attraction of resources with proven experience, are only allowed during the hiring phase.

The maximum variable compensation opportunity within the MBO is set at 60% of the maximum variable compensation.

For DIRS with maximum variable set to 200% of fixed remuneration, it means 120% of the gross annual remuneration (hereinafter also "Maximum Bonus").

The MBO is based on a balanced scorecard providing Financial and Non-financial key performance indicators (KPIs) – as follows:

The weight of each performance criteria depends on the "group" or "local" roles of the DIRs, based on the following matrix:

INDIVIDUAL SCORECARD
DIRS WHAT - 70% HOW - 30% - Competencies and Behaviours
GROUP
EBITDA
COUNTRY

The HOW component evaluation will include the input from a 180º feedback, including bottom-up assessment. The area objectives of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities are defined by the CEO.

The actual award is defined by the Board of Directors, after consultation with the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, based on achieved performances, as highlighted in the following incentive curve:

In case achieved performances are below the "Minimum" threshold, no payout accrues, while in case the overall performance achieved is Outstanding, the maximum opportunity accrues (130% of the Target Bonus. This would mean 120% of the gross annual remuneration, for DIRs with maximum variable set to 200% of fixed remuneration, and a STI/LTI split of 60%/40%.

Variable remuneration linked to MBO is paid based on the degree to which the assigned targets have been achieved. The maximum possibility is recognised upon achieving the maximum level of all the assigned objectives.

The assigned variable remuneration is gradually reduced for performances not in line with the assigned objectives. The same is zeroed for failure to meet the minimum performance threshold that activates the MBO system. Payment of the variable remuneration is subordinate to the preliminary and joint achievement of the entry gate that also guarantee the sustainability of the Group's incentive systems.

Specifically, no variable remuneration is paid in the event that the entry gate identified for the purposes of activating the incentive systems is not met ("Access Gates"):

• for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities in "group" roles (e.g. Group Heads): Group EBITDA at least equal to the 80% of Group EBITDA defined in the annual plan (strategic and operational)

Without prejudice to the right to compensation for any additional damages, after payment of the variable compensation, the Company reserves the right, within 5 years from the granting date of the variable remuneration and regardless of whether the employment is ongoing or terminated, to ask the Beneficiary to repay the bonus ("clawback"), if one of the following cases occurs:

  • beneficiary's fraudulent behaviour or gross negligence to the detriment of the Group;
  • serious and intentional violations of laws, the Code of Ethics and Company rules,
  • allocation of a bonus based on data which later turns out to be manifestly incorrect or intentionally altered.

The Clawback cause will be applied as legally enforceable based on country by country provisions.

The payment of variable compensation is also subject to the verification of this malus condition: 100% reduction (zeroing of the STI amounts) if one of the clawback clauses occurs during the performance period.

As previously mentioned, Executives with Strategic Responsibilities cannot be recipients of discretionary one-off payments. Should it occur, it would be considered a derogation to the Remuneration Policy, allowed only on an exceptional basis, under the circumstances and upon the procedure describe in paragraph n. 2.2.

However, a sign-on and/or retention plan may be defined by the BoD, upon Appointments and Remuneration Committee's opinion and aimed to attract or retain Executives key to the long term success of the Group. The amount may not exceed the fixed compensation, will be deferred overtime to ensure the retention purposes and subject to malus and clawback clauses.

The MBO is paid entirely in Cash (after the approval, by the Shareholders' Meeting, of the financial statements relating to the Accrual Period, and within 30 days thereafter).

3.6.2.2 Long-term variable remuneration: LTI

The LTI Plan provides an annual grant ("rolling" plan) entirely based on doValue shares (i.e. "Performance Shares"), aiming to:

  • incentivize the achievement of key strategic performances and value creation, supporting the alignment of the beneficiaries to the long-term interest of shareholders and broader stakeholders;
  • foster the One-Group culture;
  • support the commitment to attract, engage and retain doValue employees as a strategic asset for the Group.

Each grant is based on a three-year vesting period.

The plan provides the beneficiaries with the right to receive, on a rolling base, free Company shares if a predetermined set of performance conditions are met at the end of the vesting period.

The grant amount for each cycle is defined according to different organization clusters and, for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, is equal to 80% of Gross Annual Remuneration (40% of the maximum overall variable compensation). The number of shares is based on the average price of the doValue share in the 3 months before the Board of Directors meeting that approves the Plan to be submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting.

In case of a new hire, the granted amount of shares for the cycle will be prorated based on the hire date. The Appointments and Remuneration Committee can propose a full granting for the approval of the BoD.

For each cycle, an entry gate condition is provided, upon proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and with the approval by the Board of Directors.

For the first cycle, the following condition is applied: Group EBITDA at the end of the vesting period (at 31/12/2024) at least equal to the 70% of Group EBITDA defined in the annual plan (strategic and operational).

The number of vested shares is based on the achievement of the KPIs at the end of each vesting period, provided the achievement of the entry gate condition.

The Strategic Objectives of the LTI, in line with 2022-2024 Business Plan, are the following:

The pay-out is defined for each KPI according to the following:

3 The companies in the peer group (Intrum, Banca IFIS, B2Holding, Kruk, Axactor, Hoist, Illimity, Mutui Online, BFF Group, Banca Sistema) are listed companies comparable with doValue. Any shares involved in extraordinary transactions resulting in their delisting or in a significant reduction in the free float, will be replaced by comparable shares, if possible.

The Target of the 2022-2024 cycle is aligned to 2022- 2024 Business Plan.

The number of vested shares will be calculated as follow:

  • when the maximum performance level (so called "Maximum") is reached, the number of vested shares will be equal to the maximum of shares granted. No additional shares will vest when a performance level above the Maximum will be reached;
  • when the target performance level (so called "Target") is reached, the number of vested shares will be equal to the target shares granted ("Target");
  • when the minimum performance level (so called "Threshold") is reached, the number of vested shares

Relative Total Shareholders Return (weight: 30%)

The KPI is articulated in two different indicators (equally weighted, 15%):

  • doValue TSR Vs Peer Group4 TSR
  • doValue TSR Vs Mid Cap index

The number of vested shares will be calculated as follow:

doValue TSR Vs Peer Group TSR (weight 15%) doValue TSR Vs Mid Cap index (weight 15%)

Ranking Vested Shares
1st, 2nd o 3rd Maximum number of shares
awarded
4th o 5th Target number of shares

9th, 10th, 11th No vested shares

Should doValue's TSR be negative over the vesting period, even though it is– at least – on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd rank, the over performance will not be recognized and the associated score will therefore be equal to Target number of shares awarded.

will be equal to the minimum number shares granted ("Minimum"). Below the "Threshold" performance level no shares will vest.

For performance levels between Threshold and Target and between Target and Maximum, a calculation by linear interpolation will be applied, as shown in the graph.

The indicator will be considered net of extraordinary transactions (and related impacts) approved by the BoD during the reference period for the Plan.

Should doValue's TSR be negative over the vesting period, even though it is– at least – on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd rank, the over performance will not be recognized and the associated score will therefore be equal to Target number of shares awarded.

4 The companies in the peer group (Intrum, Banca IFIS, B2Holding, Kruk, Axactor, Hoist, Illimity, Mutui Online, BFF Group, Banca Sistema) are listed companies comparable with doValue. Any shares involved in extraordinary transactions resulting in their delisting or in a significant reduction in the free float, will be replaced by comparable shares, if possible.

ESG: social commitment on employee engagement (weight: 10%)

The number of vested shares for each ESG metric will be calculated as follow:

Performance Vested Shares
Maximum Maximum number of shares awarded
Target Target number of shares
awarded
Threshold Minimum number of shares awarded
Below threshold No vested shares

The Target of the 2022-2024 cycle is aligned to 2022- 2024 Business Plan.

On a yearly base, respectively at the beginning of 2023 and the beginning of 2024, the Board of Directors, upon the proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, will set the objective for the cycle 2023-2025 and 2024-2026.

Provided the participant incurs tax liability in connection with the compensation in Shares, the Company may satisfy the minimum tax withholding obligation on behalf of the Participant by either (a) withholding from the Shares to be issued, the number of Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld for income and employment taxes.

Or (b) arranging to have sold on Participant's behalf a sufficient number of Shares that is equal to the amount required to be withheld.

At the end of the vesting period, a one year Lock up period applies to 50% of vested shares net of assignable/ assigned shares to cover the social contributions/ tax should, to be held by the Executives with Strategic Responsibilities.

An additional number of shares, or the monetary equivalent, equal to the value of the 50% of dividends paid during the vesting period, is granted to the beneficiaries ("Dividend Equivalent") at the end of each vesting period.

The overall time horizon is described below:

SUMMARY OF KEY EVENTS OF 2021 FINANCIAL YEAR

Summary of key events of 2021 financial year

Gross Book Value

Record results were achieved in 2021, with approx. €14.7 billion of new Gross Book Value secured from a mix of new and existing clients. Approx. €3.3 billion of forward flows were received from existing clients through forward flow agreements (significantly above the target of €2.0 billion) and €11.4 billion of new mandates were secured by doValue (significantly above the target of €7.0-9.0 billion). The above mentioned figures include Project Frontier (a €5.7 billion mandate in Greece signed in October 2021 and purchased by doValue for €35.5 million).

At the end of 2021, Gross Book Value stood at €149.5 billion, compared to the level of €157.7 billion at the end of 2020. The level of Gross Book Value at the end of 2021, pro-forma for the mandates already secured but not yet onboarded as of December 31st, 2021, is €157.8 billion.

Income Statement

The Collection activity in 2021 has been equal to €5.7 billion (compared to €4.3 billion in 2020). The increase reflects in part the acquisition of doValue Greece completed in June 2020, but also the progressive post-COVID recovery of court activities and the relaxation of the restrictions put in place by the various governments with the aim of supporting companies and households to better weather the pandemic.

The Group Collection Rate is equal to 4.3% for 2021, having increased by 120 bps compared to 2020 and being above the pre-COVID level of 4.2% recorded in 2019.

In 2021, doValue has recorded Gross Revenues for €572.1 million, an increase of 36% compared to the €420.5m recorded in 2020. To be noted that the 2021 include the full contribution of doValue Greece, acquired in the month of June 2020. Gross Revenues recorded in Q4 2021 have grown by 35% compared to Q4 2020.

Servicing Revenues, equal to €528.6 million (€386.1 million in 2020), show an increase of 37%, on the back of the enlarged consolidation perimeter but also supported by the higher-than-average fees characterising the Greek market compared to the Group average, which further demonstrates the attractiveness of the acquisition of FPS (now doValue Greece) in 2020.

Revenues from Co-investments are equal to €8.8 million (were equal to €429 thousands in 2020) and are mainly related to Project Relais and Project Mexico in which doValue booked a capital gain on the back of successful processes envisaging the purchase (or backstop) and reselling of the junior and mezzanine notes to institutional investors.

The contribution of Revenues from Ancillary Products and Minor Activities is €34.6 million (€34.0 million in 2020), these activities represent a stable and consistent source of revenues for the Group.

Net Revenues, equal to €506.5 million, have increase by c. 37% compared to €370.4 million in 2020.

Outsourcing fees have marginally decreased as a percentage of Gross Revenues to 11% (compared to 12% in 2020).

Operational Expenses, equal to €307.1 million have decreased as a percentage of Gross Revenues to 54% (compared to 60% in 2020, when they stood at €253.7 million). The increase in Operational Expenses in absolute terms is mainly due to the larger consolidation perimeter. In relative terms, both Staff Costs and Other Operating Costs (IT, Real Estate and SG&A) show a decrease in the percentage incidence of Gross Revenues, driven by various cost reduction programs but also by the accretive contribution of doValue Greece, a company which features a very favourable ratio between Operational Expenses and Gross Revenues. In particular, the Group has recorded a reduction in personnel costs from 41% to 38% of Gross Revenues. doValue has put in place an organic plan to further rationalise Operational Expenses, aimed at creating more significant savings leveraging on the synergies between the different areas of the Group. EBITDA excluding non-recurring items grew by 58% to €200.9 million (from €127.5 million in 2020), with an improvement in EBITDA margin excluding non-recurring items of 480 bps, growing to 35.1% (from 30.3% in 2020). Including non-recurring items, EBITDA stood at €199.3 million, recording a growth of 71% compared to 2020, when it stood at €116.6 million. Non-recurring items above the EBITDA mainly include charges related to the merger between doValue Greece and doValue Hellas and

Net Income excluding non-recurring items stands at €50.7 million, compared to €12.0 million in 2020. The increase is linked to the growth in EBITDA and partially compensated by higher D&A, higher financial expenses (due to a higher indebtedness related to the completion of the acquisition of doValue Greece) and higher taxes. Including non-recurring items, Net Income stands at €23.7 million, compared to a negative result of €30.4 million in 2020. The non-recurring items included below the EBITDA for 2021 mainly refer to provisions for early

other consultancy costs related to M&A projects.

retirement incentive plans, additional one-off provisions for risk and charges, the one-off non-cash effect of the residual amortised costs related to the reimbursement of the Senior Facility Loan for the acquisition of Altamira, and the one-off impact of the missed renewal of the Sareb contract in terms of higher amortisation and reduction in fair value. The latter aspect has emerged on February 24th, 2022, i.e. after the communication to the market of the preliminary results for 2021 and represents the only change compared to the results presented on February 17th, 2022, considering that the estimate previously communicated assumed the continuation of the contract with Sareb albeit at a substantially lower fee level. As a reminder, Net Income was negatively affected in 2020 by the Tax Claim for an amount of c. €29 million.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Generation

Net Working Capital at the end of 2021 stood at €132.6 million compared to €123.3 million at the end of 2020, representing a marginal increase of €9.3 million in 2021 (an increase of 8% year on year, lower than the increase in Gross Revenues, both on a reported and on a pro-forma basis).

Net Debt at the end of 2021 stood at €401.8 million, compared to the €410.6 million as the end of 2020. Financial Leverage (represented by the ratio between Net Debt and EBITDA) decreased materially in 2021 and stands at the end of 2021 at 2.0x (from 2.6x at the end of 2020) mainly thanks to the growth in EBITDA in 2021. By the end of 2021 doValue has essentially achieved the lower end of its Financial Leverage target range (2.0- 3.0x).

In 2021, the Group activity has led to the generation of Operating Cash Flow of €140.1 million (70% conversion from EBITDA including non-recurring items) and to the generation of Free Cash Flow equal to €96.1 million (48% conversion from EBITDA including non-recurring items). As a reminder, the cash flow generation in 2021 was impacted by several one-off factors, such as the agreement reached with Eurobank at the time of the closing of the FPS acquisition in June 2020 (which foresaw the early payment at the end of 2020 of the fees due for 2021), the higher than average Capex of €29.6 million (partly related also to the doTransformation program), the Tax Claim payment of €33 million, and the share buy-back program of €4,6 million.

Dividend

The Board of Directors of doValue has approved to propose to the Shareholders a dividend related to the fiscal year 2021 of €0.50 per share (for an amount of approximately €39.5 million, considering the current number of treasury shares owned by the Company). The dividend, which is subject to approval from the Annual General Meeting, will be payable on May 4th, 2022 (with ex-dividend date on May 2nd, 2022, and record date on May 3rd, 2022).

As discussed in the context of the presentation of the Business Plan 2022-2024 on January 26th, 2022, the strong expected cash flow generation of the Company for the next three years and the shift towards a more organic approach to growth in the Business Plan horizon enable an upgrade of the Company's dividend policy which allows more distributions to the shareholders with an increased level of visibility.

In particular, doValue is committing to growing its Dividend per Share in the 2021-2024 period by at least 20% per annum, implying total dividend paid of at least €200 million in relation to the fiscal years 2021-2024. doValue reserves itself the possibility to further increase distributions to shareholders through dividends and / or share buy backs if limited M&A activity is performed.

Project Frontier

On October 15th, 2021, doValue signed (through its subsidiary doValue Greece) a new servicing mandate in relation to a landmark €5.7 billion securitisation of Greek non-performing loans performed by National Bank of Greece (Project Frontier). Project Frontier is the first securitisation of a portfolio of non-performing loans by NBG, the largest Greek bank by total assets, under the Hellenic Asset Protection Scheme, and was successfully awarded through a competitive process where doValue participated in a consortium together with affiliates of Bain Capital and Fortress. Funds and accounts managed by Bain Capital and Fortress respectively purchased 95% of the mezzanine and junior notes issued by a Special Purpose Vehicle, which acquired the Project Frontier portfolio, while doValue Greece has been appointed as servicer. The price for the acquisition of the servicing contract by doValue was approximately €35.5 million, which was paid in Q4 2021 upon the closing of the transaction. Project Frontier portfolio onboarding was completed on February 7th, 2022.

Project Mexico

In 1H 2021, Eurobank has started the securitisation process for the Mexico portfolio. The Mexico portfolio, equal to €3.2 billion of Gross Book Value, was already under management by doValue as part of the original perimeter deriving from the FPS acquisition from Eurobank in 2020. With the aim of preserving the servicing mandate, during Q3 2021, doValue made a binding offer (subsequently accepted by Eurobank) for the purchase of a 95% stake in the mezzanine and junior notes of the portfolio with the objective of disposing of such notes in the market. During the month of October 2021, doValue finalised an agreement with Waterwheel Capital Management, a US institutional investor, for the disposal of a 90% stake in the mezzanine and junior notes related to the securitisation of the Mexico Portfolio (the disposal was closed in December 2021).

Investments in QueroQuitar and BidX1

On May 13th, 2021, doValue signed an investment agreement to invest in a share capital increase of the Brazilian fintech company QueroQuitar for a total amount of approximately €1.5 million. The transaction was subsequently closed on May 20th, 2021. With this investment doValue acquired a stake of about 10% in QueroQuitar with the aim of establishing cooperation and partnership in the future for the development of innovative recovery models and collection technology in the European unsecured NPL market segment. Based in São Paulo, QueroQuitar is one of the most promising fintech start-ups operating in the field of digital collections, with approximately 15 million registered debtors and over 20 customers among Brazil's leading financial institutions.

On November 4th, 2021, doValue's Board of Directors approved the subscription by doValue of a €10 million capital increase in BidX1 for a stake of approximately 15%. The acquisition was subsequently closed on November 9th, 2021. BidX1 is a prop-tech company (jointly controlled by founder Stephen McCarthy and Pollen Street Capital) specialized in the promotion and execution of real estate transactions through real-time online auction processes. Unlike traditional real estate marketplaces (i.e., Idealista, Immobiliare.it, etc.) that BidX1 can sometimes use to promote properties being auctioned, BidX1 takes care of the entire sale process of the property including the provision of contractual documentation, visits to the property and the finalization of the purchase following the auction. Based in Ireland, where it was founded in 2011 as a traditional auction house, BidX1 has developed since 2017 a digital platform for the sale of real estate assets, moving towards a completely digital business model and successfully undertaking an ambitious internationalization process: in a few years BidX1 has established presence in UK, Spain, Cyprus and South Africa with its own subsidiaries and local staff. doValue's investment in BidX1 is part of the growth strategy for external lines through transactions that foster the development of an ecosystem of valueadded services to support the NPL and REO and businesses diversification towards sectors with high growth rates. It is intention of doValue supporting BidX1 growth as independent operator at the service of the broadest spectrum of sector operators.

Innovation has historically been a key focus for doValue and it has been realized both internally, through JVs or acquisitions. The push for innovation will accelerate with the Business Plan 2022-2024, with main areas of focus revolving around the way data are managed, processes are structured also tapping into the recently acquired capabilities in terms of fintech (QueroQuitar) and proptech (BidX1). Further innovation will involve areas around artificial intelligence, credit information, legal services, business process outsourcing, early delinquencies and granular UTPs, and some of these are likely to be pursued through M&A. All in all, innovation will allow doValue to increase the scope of its reference market, further decrease correlation with the credit cycle and accelerate the move from a labour-intensive business model towards a more technology-driven approach.

Issuance of Senior Secured Notes

On July 22nd, 2021, doValue has successfully completed the issuance of the €300 million senior secured notes due 2026 reserved for certain qualified investors at a fixed rate equal to 3.375% per annum and an issue price equal to 100.0%. The proceeds from the issuance have been used by doValue (i) to prepay and cancel the outstanding senior facility agreement entered on March 22nd, 2019 (including accrued interest thereon and related interest rate swaps), (ii) to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction, and (iii) with the remainder to be held as cash for general corporate purposes. In the context of the issuance, the rating of the notes by Standard & Poor's and Fitch has been set at BB/ Stable Outlook, therefore confirming the corporate credit rating of doValue.

Spanish Tax Inspection

As part of an inspection ("Tax Claim") concerning the financial years 2014 and 2015 conducted by the Spanish tax authority ("Authority") on Altamira Asset Management Holding ("AAMH"), a vehicle attributable to the previous

shareholders of the Altamira group and not part of the doValue Group, and Altamira Asset Management ("AAM"), AAM considered it in its own interest to reach an agreement with the Authority and, in July 2021, made a payment of €33 million, completely resolving the tax pending with the Authority. Following this payment, doValue received a first reimbursement from AAMH for €4.1 million as an adjustment to the AAM acquisition price and a second reimbursement from the insurance company for €0.7 million. It should be noted that, following the notification by the Authority, doValue promptly activated the insurance coverage entered at the time of the acquisition of AAM having received positive opinions regarding the right of compensation. Nevertheless, as mentioned during the Capital Markets Day held on January 26th, 2022, doValue has taken a prudent stance on the matter and the potential reimbursement of the Tax Claim from the insurance company has not been included in the Business Plan 2022-2024.

Sareb contract

On February 24th, 2022, Sareb (the company set up by the Spanish Government and the Spanish Banks in 2012 with the purpose of managing and divest distressed assets that were transferred to it from four nationalized Spanish financial institutions) has communicated the decision of not renewing the contract with doValue (the current contract expires in June 2022) as well as with all the servicers that are currently managing the Sareb portfolio. doValue had already foreseen this scenario, as described in the Business Plan 2022-2024 presented by the Group on January 26th, 2022. Considering the highly competitive nature of the process that Sareb has conducted in the last few months (which was focussed on the level of commissions payable by Sareb to the servicers), the new contract would have not contributed positively to the Group profitability, and therefore the decision by Sareb will not have a material impact on the Business Plan 2022-2024 financial targets and on the overall strategic direction of the Group.

Sareb is currently a relevant client of doValue in Spain, as such the decision by Sareb will trigger a reorganisation of doValue's operations in Spain aimed at operating at an adequate scale preserving the profitability of the business in Iberia. In addition, doValue's growth in Spain in 2023 and 2024, in particular, in terms of EBITDA, will be led by a higher extraction of value from the current GBV (excluding Sareb), new servicing agreements and new revenue streams.

doValue reiterates its target for the Iberia region in terms of 2024 EBITDA (€35-40 million), as well as the broader financial targets at Group levels presented on January 26th, 2022.

Such event has led to an adjustment of the findings presented in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31st, 2021, with reference to the update of the impact of the amortisation and the quantification of the fair value of the intangible assets relative to the servicing contracts deriving from the acquisition of Altamira Asset Management. In particular, an update was made on the amortisation and an updated impairment test was carried out according to accounting principle IAS 36 to take into account of the changed future scenario, with the deriving estimate of an increase of €7.2 million (or €4.6 million post tax and post minorities) of the cost component "net impairment losses on tangible and intangible assets" related to the previous assumption of continuation of the contract albeit at much reduced commissions and limited profitability. In consideration of the non-ordinary nature of the event the overall impact of such change is classified from a management point of view amongst the non-recurring items of the profit and loss statement.

Outlook

The servicing market in Southern Europe continues to be vibrant, with banking institutions particularly keen to accelerate their asset quality projects in view of the expected rise in default rates on the back of the lifting of moratoria across the entire Southern Europe in 2021 and in light of the recent geo-political crisis triggered by the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February 2022. In addition, progresses in the vaccination campaign, the normalisation of economic activities and the lifting of most limitations on foreclosures activities have supported the full normalisation of the operating environment in the credit servicing sector.

More generally, doValue activity is underpinned by exogenous and favourable medium to long term tailwinds, including the implementation, by banks, of stringent regulations for the recognition of loans (IFRS 9, Calendar Provisioning, Basel IV) aimed at promoting a very proactive approach in managing their balance sheets, in addition to the well-established outsourcing trend by banks of servicing activities.

doValue 2021

With regard to this specific section, the Shareholders are proposed to approve, with a binding resolution, an exception to the 2021 Remuneration Policy regarding the CEO's variable remuneration for 2021 in light of the circumstances described below.

The component, on which the Board of Directors resolved to propose an exemption to the Shareholders' Meeting, concerns 60% of the CEO's annual bonus (MBO) linked to the achievement of a share price target during the second half of the year. 2021. This target has not been reached if we consider only the second half of 2021, while it would be fully achieved if we assessed the entire year of 2021.

The rationale for the decision to take the share price target as a reference during the second half of 2021 alone was guided by the hypothesis that the doValue share (and financial markets in general) at the beginning of 2021 could still be excessively penalized by the given situation. from the Covid-19 pandemic. In reality, this choice resulted in a penalizing result for the CEO following the particular volatility of the stock, in particular during the third quarter of 2021.

In addition to the above, it is noted that 2021 showed strong positive results: gross revenues increased to 572.1 million euros, EBITDA, excluding non-recurring items, of 200.9 million euros (EBITDA margin equal to 35%), net profit, excluding non-recurring items, which reached 50.7 million euros, a Financial Leverage of 2.0x as of 31 December 2021, and driving a dividend per share of 0.50 euros. Furthermore, as mentioned, on 25 January 2022 the Board of Directors approved the 2022-2024 Business Plan, illustrating the strategic commitment in line with the long-term interests of doValue's stakeholders.

By virtue of these circumstances and taking into account that the aforementioned component is an integral part of the long-term remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, in the meeting of 28 March 2021, proposed not to cancel but rather defer the vesting of the aforementioned component, at the end of the mandate of Chief Executive Officer (in conjunction with the evaluation of the MBO for 2023), under the following conditions:

  • the additional and specific objective is achieved in terms of the target value of the share price for 2023 (substantially incremental compared to 2021);
  • the mechanisms relating to deferred remuneration to be paid in 2023 and the malus and claw back mechanisms are satisfied.

The number of shares assigned will be defined by dividing the target amount expressed in euros by the average price per share of the 12 months preceding the assessment of the vesting conditions, and will be paid subsequently after the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2023 financial statements, without prejudice to the deferral period indicated in the remuneration policy.

The aforementioned waiver proposal, which does not lead to an immediate cash payment, but a total deferral, is aimed to reinforcing an even greater alignment of the CEO's remuneration structure with the Company's growth objectives, also in light of the new strategic economic objectives set in the Business Plan; furthermore, the payment conditions established (including the maintenance of the target value set for 2023, as well as the deferral mechanism) ensure alignment with the interests of the Shareholders and make it possible to appreciate the convenience for the Company.

This derogation will be implemented only in the event of a favorable vote by the Shareholders' Meeting of 28 April 2022.

4.6 Executives with Strategic Responsibilities Remuneration

Variable remuneration of the Executives with Strategic Responsibilities is based on:

  • a Short Term Incentive system, with company and individual objectives aimed at incentivising the managers to achieve the Group's earning objectives and to pursue the development strategy with a sound and prudent risk management approach.
  • A Long Term Incentive (LTI) system, 2021-2023, with company objectives, aimed to align participants to

the long-term, attract and retain individuals that are key to the long term success of the Group and foster the "One-Group culture".

  • In respect of the 2021 variable STI component of the remuneration and as described above, the variable compensation system was activated in light of the reach of the "Entry Gate".
  • GROUP EBITDA equal or higher than 80% of Budget EBITDA
  • For Region / Country Managers, one additional entry gate at 70% EBITDA of the area of responsibility.

EBITDA IBERO 50.470 70% 130%
EBITDA HELLENIC 97.635 70% 194%

Consequently, based on the achievement of the performance conditions provided for the STI system, with an average level of 115%, the 2021 variable remuneration for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities was paid, with an overall amount of 1.975.322€, with an average of 329.220€.

In line with the new regulatory framework ("Issuers Regulation" - December 2020), disclosure is provided in relation to the average ratio between fixed and variable remuneration paid to the Executives with strategic responsibilities for the financial year 2021.

REMUNERATION PAID 2021: CASH/SHARES

A total of 29 participants have been selected to participate in the 2021-2023 cycle:

Total 29 268.811 2.748.812

The Compensation Plan 2021 based on doValue "Shares" has features differentiated based for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities and Key individuals.

The differentiation of the Plan features characteristics based on beneficiary categories is aimed at placing greater focus on the remuneration structure of subjects with a greater and more direct impact on business in order to drive behaviour towards strategic objectives and discourage behaviours which include excessive risk taking or short-term oriented.

  • Executives with Strategic Responsibilities: the LTI Plan regulated under this Information Document is granted entirely in doValue Shares. The Maximum amount is the 80% of the fixed remuneration.
  • Key individuals: granted entirely in Shares. The Maximum amounts is up to 25%-40% of the fixed remuneration.

The application of the policy has been done within the above features, with the exception of four key individuals with a higher percentage of LTI in regards to the fixed remuneration, being the average of 57% of the fixed remuneration as Long Term Incentive maximum granted. These cases have been approved by the BoD upon recommendation of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, conditioned to the vote in the Shareholders to this Report on remuneration paid.

Hiring and severance pay

During 2021 two individual settlement agreements for the exit of Executives with strategic responsibilities were defined. These individual agreements provided for termination payments totaling EUR 685.351 gross as a redundancy incentive.

This remuneration was paid immediately upon termination in one of the cases, while the second case will be effective in 2022, and remuneration will be paid immediately upon termination.

The indemnity payment is compliant with the indications of the 2021 Remuneration Policy, is composed by an upfront payout, with no further deferred compensation, and represents 41% of the maximum termination payment applicable under the Remuneration policy.
