The related voting rights are suspended under Art. 2357-ter of the Italian Civil Code.

Under the outlined procedure, this must be received with the relevant written voting instructions, together with a copy of the delegating party's valid identity document. If the delegating party is a legal person, the following is required: a copy of a valid identity document of the pro tempore legal representative, or another person with the appropriate powers, the documentation proving their qualifications and powers (copy of a Chamber of Commerce certificate or similar), and any copy of the accreditation certificate issued by their bank or intermediary.

The proxy or sub-delegation and written voting instructions must be provided together with a copy of the delegating party's valid identity document. If the delegating party is a legal person, the following is required: a copy of a valid identity document of the pro tempore legal representative, or another person with the appropriate powers, the documentation proving their qualifications and powers (copy of a Chamber of Commerce certificate or similar), and any copy of the accreditation certificate issued by their bank or intermediary, under the procedures outlined in the form. This must be received no later than 12 noon on the day before the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e., 27 February 2025. The proxy or subdelegation and the related voting instructions may be revoked within this deadline as described above.
As of today's date, the Designated Representative is available to shareholders to provide any information and clarifications that may be necessary to grant the proxy (for the completion of the proxy form and voting instructions and their transmission), at the address [email protected] or from the following number (+39) 0246776818 – 14 (from 9 am to 6 pm, Monday to Friday).

Shareholders from whom the Company has received a specific notice through an authorised intermediary under current legislation, may request agenda additions or submit new resolution proposals.

Within the same deadline and using the same procedure, the proposing Shareholders must submit to the Board of Directors a report containing the reason for resolution proposals on the new items proposed for discussion or the reasons for the additional resolution proposals on items already on the agenda.
Agenda additions are not permitted when the Shareholders' Meeting legally resolves on a directors' proposal or a project or report prepared by them, other than those referred to in Article 125-ter, paragraph 1, of the TUF.
Notice of agenda additions or submission for new resolution proposals on items already on the agenda shall be given using the same procedure for publication of this notice, at least 15 days before the date set for the Shareholders' Meeting (i.e., by 13 February 2025). At the same time as the publication of the notice of additions or submission, the report prepared by the requesting Shareholders, accompanied by any Board of Directors' assessments, will be made available using the same procedure for the Shareholders' Meeting documentation. Since Shareholders' Meeting participation is permitted exclusively through the Designated Representative, proposals will be published promptly on the Company's website to enable those entitled to vote to express themselves also on these new proposals and allow the Designated Representative to collect voting instructions.
Since participation in the Shareholders' Meeting is permitted exclusively through a Designated Representative under the Company Articles of Association, and art. 135-undecies.1 of the TUF, those entitled to vote may submit individual resolution proposals on the agenda items by the 15th day before the date set for the first or only convocation of the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e. Not later than 11:59 pm of 13 February 2025, by sending them to the Company's certified e-mail address [email protected], specifying the following email subject "Fine Foods & Pharmaceuticals N.T.M.

The deadline for submitting such proposals, under art. 135-undecies.1 of the TUF, allows those interested in submitting individual proposals to consider what has been published by the Company on the agenda items. This allows the Designated Representative to update the forms to grant proxies under art. 135-undecies and art. 135-novies of the TUF, so that those entitled to vote may assess requests and proposals timely before providing voting instructions.
Under Article 127-ter of the TUF, those who are entitled to vote and from whom the Company has received a notification through an intermediary, authorised under current legislation, may ask questions on the agenda items exclusively before the Shareholders' Meeting, and by the seventh trading day before the date set for the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e., 19 February 2025, by sending the questions by certified email to [email protected].
