It should be noted that the Plan is not to be considered of "particular importance" pursuant to Article 114-bis, paragraph 3 of the TUF and Article 84-bis, paragraph 2, of the Regolamento Emittenti, as it is aimed only at employees who are not managers with strategic responsibilities.
This Information Document is prepared pursuant to Article 84-bis of the Regolamento Emittenti and in accordance with Schedule no. 7 of Annex 3A of the same Regolamento Emittenti; it has been made available to the public at the Company's registered office and on TIM's website at www.gruppotim.it/assemblea , as well as on the authorised storage mechanism at the internet website , within the terms and in the manner provided for by applicable law.
Information not yet available at the time of approval of the proposal for the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be disseminated in due time in the manner provided for by the applicable regulations.
The Plan is reserved for members of the Group's management, as discretionally identified by the Board of Directors, following the approval of the Plan by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 24 June 2025, from among the Employees deemed worthy of incentives, recognition and retention based on management considerations.
The inclusion among the Beneficiaries will take into account the role held, the level of organisational responsibility and the expected contribution to the Group's strategic objectives, with a view to incentivising and retaining key resources, in compliance with the remuneration policy submitted for approval by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 24 June 2025.
The Beneficiaries will be identified by the Board of Directors, also on the basis of the indication of the CEO, from among the Employees following the approval of the Plan by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 24 June 2025; the members of the Board of Directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries are not among the Beneficiaries of the Plan.
At the date of the Information Documents, the Plan is ideally aimed at approximately no. 85 employees of the Group, according to the decisions that will be taken by the Board of Directors, without prejudice to the fact that further additional Beneficiaries may be identified by the Board of Directors after the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 24 June 2025.

1.4 Description and numerical indication of the beneficiaries, separate for the categories indicated in point 1.4, letters a), b), c) and d) of Annex 3A, Schedule 7 of the Issuers' Regulation

Not applicable.
c) Any other categories of employees or collaborators for whom differentiated characteristics of the Plan have been provided (e.g., managers, middle managers, white-collar workers, etc.);
Not applicable.
The Plan aims to reward and encourage the loyalty and retention in the Group of a selected pool of key resources, aligning the interests of management with the interests of TIM's shareholders, in terms of achieving the objective of increasing the value of the Share in the medium term.
The instrument used is represented by units called Phantom Shares, which give the Beneficiaries, once the Vesting Period and the subsequent Calculation Period have elapsed, the right to receive a monetary bonus equal to the difference between the Vesting Value and the Threshold Value, multiplied by the number of Phantom Shares accrued, without prejudice to the limit of the Maximum Vesting Value and that no Bonus will be paid if the Vesting Value is equal to or lower than the Threshold Value.
Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 1 above with reference to the criteria for identifying the Beneficiaries, the accrual of the Phantom Shares and the consequent payment of the monetary Bonus are subject exclusively: (i) to the permanence of the Relationship on the date of conclusion of the Vesting Period (without prejudice to the provisions of Article 4.8 below in the case of the so-called good leaver), and (ii) the circumstance that the Vesting Value is higher than the Threshold Value.
Reference should also be made to par. 4.5 of this Information Document for further details.
The number of Phantom Shares allocated to each of the Beneficiaries is determined by the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Committee. The Beneficiaries are divided into specific incentive bands, based on criteria such as:
As of the date of this Information Document, a total maximum of 29,978,750 Phantom Shares is expected to be allocated.
In particular, the pay opportunity is defined and differentiated according to the role and will correspond:
The actual quantity of Phantom Shares allocated will be determined in any case by the Board of Directors, within the limits indicated above, also taking into account any terminations, entries or reallocations.
Not applicable.
In defining the characteristics of the Plan, no significant tax or accounting implications emerged that could substantially affect the structure of the Plan itself.
2.6 Possible support for the Plan by the Special Fund for the Incentive of Worker Participation in Enterprises, referred to in Article 4, paragraph 112, of Law No. 350 of 24 December 2003
Not applicable.
The Plan, as illustrated in this Information Document, will be submitted for approval to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting called on 24 June 2025, to which it will also be proposed to resolve to grant the Board of Directors the power to implement it.
In particular, it will be proposed that the Board of Directors be granted all the powers necessary or appropriate for the implementation of the Plan, including, but not limited to:
The Board of Directors is responsible for the implementation of the Plan. The Board of Directors avails itself of the preparatory, propositional and advisory support of the Committee and has the right to delegate the operational management of the Plan to the competent corporate functions.
The Board may also delegate powers to the Chief Executive Officer for certain aspects concerning the actual implementation of the Plan.
In the event of extraordinary events concerning the Company or changes to the regulatory framework with effects on the Plan, the Board of Directors will have the right to make any amendments to the Plan Regulations, with the assent of the Committee and without the need for further involvement of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, any amendments and additions aimed at keeping the substantial and economic contents of the Plan unchanged, within the limits permitted by the resolutions taken by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting and by the regulations applicable from time to time.
Since this is a "Phantom" Shares Plan (i.e. one that provides for the payment of a monetary Bonus), there is no provision for the payment to the Beneficiaries of Shares, nor for the issuance or purchase of the same by the Company.
The Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Committee and with the support of the company's
management and the advisory Willis Tower Watson, approved the structure of the Plan, defining its main characteristics, and finally this Information Document. There are no conflicts of interest of TIM's directors, as they are not Beneficiaries of the Plan.
The proposal for the adoption of the Plan by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting was: (i) approved, as far as it is concerned, by the Committee on 19 May 2025; (ii) approved by the Board of Directors on 23 May 2025. The adoption of the Plan will be submitted, pursuant to art. 114-bis of the TUF, to the approval of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting called on 24 June 2025.
The Plan is submitted for approval to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting called for 24 June 2025. Subsequently, in the event of approval of the Plan, the Board of Directors will meet to take the relevant decisions for the purposes of implementing the Plan itself, after preliminary investigation by the Committee in the light of the relevant Regulations and also on the proposal of the Chief Executive Officer regarding the identification of the Beneficiaries.
As of 19 May 2025, on which the Committee examined the Plan to be submitted to the Board of Directors for approval, the official stock market price of TIM Shares was equal to Euro 0,385.
As of 23 May 2025, on which the Board of Directors approved the Plan and resolved to submit it to the Shareholders' Meeting for approval, the official stock market price of TIM Shares was equal to Euro 0,384.
3.9 Terms and methods by which the Issuer takes into account, in identifying the timing of the allocation of the instruments in implementation of the Plan, the possible coincidence in time between: (i) such assignment or any decisions taken in this regard by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee; and (ii) the dissemination of any relevant information pursuant to art. of art. 17 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014
Any coincidence in time between the disclosure of inside information (or the pendency of the "delay" in the dissemination of the same) and the initial assignment of the Phantom Shares would be irrelevant for the Beneficiaries, as they will accrue the right to payment of the monetary Bonus exclusively at the end of the Vesting Period, without prejudice to the payment of the Bonus at the end of the Calculation Period and on the basis of the Vesting Valuetag.
Moreover, the Calculation Period has already been defined and is the same for all Beneficiaries, so the
Company does not plan to prepare any particular safeguards in relation to the situations mentioned above.
The Plan provides for the assignment to the Beneficiaries of Phantom Shares, the accrual of which determines, under the terms and conditions better described in paragraph 4.5 below, the Beneficiaries' entitlement of the payment of the monetary Bonus, within the limits of the Maximum Bonus.
The Plan provides for a single cycle of Phantom Shares, without prejudice to the possibility for the Board of Directors to assign Phantom Shares in one or more times during the Vesting Period.
The Plan will end on 14 April 2027, the last date of the Calculation Period, and any attribution of the Bonus will take place after the period as determined by the Board of Directors.
The Plan provides for the assignment of a maximum of n. 29,978,750 Phantom Shares, upon vesting of which there is no payment to the Beneficiaries of Shares but only of a monetary Bonus.
Without prejudice to the discretionary identification of the Beneficiaries of the Phantom Shares as described in the previous paragraphs of the Information Document, the attribution of the Bonus to the Beneficiaries is not subject to the achievement of individual or corporate performance objectives, but to the joint occurrence of the following conditions:
In the presence of these conditions, the Beneficiary will be entitled to receive a monetary Bonus determined according to the following formula:
It is understood that, for the purposes of calculating the Bonus to be paid to the Beneficiary, the Vesting Value may not in any case exceed Euro 1.4225 (i.e . the Maximum Accrual Value).
The Phantom Shares will be attributed to the Beneficiaries personally, and may not be transferred or subject to constraints or be the object of inter vivos disposition acts. As a result of the vesting of Phantom Shares , there is no payment to the Beneficiaries of Shares but only a monetary Bonus.
Not applicable.
In the event of termination of the Relationship before Vesting (and therefore during the Vesting period), due to (i) retirement; (ii) consensual termination (with the exclusion in any case of voluntary resignation); (iii) placement outside the Group perimeter, for any reason, of the company with which the Beneficiary maintains his Relationship; (iv) total and permanent disability or death (with assignment in the latter case to the heirs), the Phantom Shares, in a reduced number in proportion to the entire four-month periods already elapsed from the date of assignment of the Phantom Shares until the interrupting event, will remain susceptible of Vesting (without acceleration of the Vesting period), as long as the interrupting event occurs after January 1 of the year following the assignment of the Phantom Shares.
It is understood that, in any other case of termination of the Relationship with TIM or the Subsidiaries, the Phantom Shares will lapse. In the event of a letter of disciplinary contestation being sent, and until the moment of receipt of the communication with which the relevant sanction is imposed (with possible application of the Claw-back) or until it is reported that no sanction will be imposed, the right to receive the Bonus will remain suspended..
In the event of transfer of the Relationship from the Company to another company of the Group, or vice versa, or in the event of termination of the Relationship and simultaneous establishment of a new Relationship within the Group, the Beneficiary will retain, mutatis mutandis, all rights aconferred to him by reason of the Plan.
The Board of Directors is granted all the powers required to implement the Plan, making any amendments and/or additions necessary for the pursuit of the objectives that the Plan is intended to achieve, including in the event of changes in the applicable legislation or extraordinary situations not provided for in the Regulations.
Not applicable.
4.12 Valuations of the expected expense for the Company at the date of its assignment, as determinable on the basis of terms and conditions already defined, for the total amount and in relation to each instrument of the Plan
As of the date of this Information Document, the actual expense for the Company cannot be determined, as it depends on variables that cannot yet be verified, including the quantity of Phantom Shares actually accrued and the occurrence of the conditions for the Beneficiaries to be entitled to the monetary bonus, including in particular – in addition to the permanence of the Relationship – the circumstance that the Vesting Value is higher than the Threshold Value (as well as the extent of the difference between the Accrual Value and the Threshold Value with reference to each Beneficiary).
Not applicable.
Not applicable.
4.15 In the event that the shares are not traded on regulated markets, any information useful for a complete assessment of the value attributable to them
Not applicable.
4.16 – 4.23 Not applicable as it is not a stock option
Not applicable.
