In the case in which, within the filing conditions for slates indicated above, only one slate is filed or only slates presented by shareholders which are related, notice is given without delay and consequently slates may be presented until the end of the third day following this date (April 7, 2025) by shareholders which, individually or together with other shareholders, hold shares representing at least 1.25% of the Share Capital with voting rights at the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting.
Each shareholder may vote for only one slate.
