The Committee, in general, may avail itself, by way of the Group's Human Resources Department, of all the information and Corporate functions deemed necessary to carry out its responsibilities.
1.4 The Group's Human Resources Department
The Group's Human Resources Department assists the CEO/GM and the Committee in defining the Group's Global Reward Policy by conducting studies of market trends and practices and providing the analyses needed to develop remuneration policies, as well as to align them with the highest possible standards.
More in detail, with the support of the relative Corporate functions:

- identifies and proposes possible indicators to be used to estimate the fixed and variable components of remuneration packages which are in line with the best practices, subject to internal job grading and analysis of reference markets;
- addresses the legal aspects tied to the preparation and application of the incentive plans based on financial instruments;
- coordinates the definition and implementation of the Performance Management Process connected to the short and medium term incentive plans;
- monitors the application of the Group's Global Reward Policy.
1.5 Definition and Approval of the Group's Global Reward Policy
Each year the Remuneration Committee submits the Policy to the Board of Directors for approval on the basis of the proposal prepared by the CEO/GM with the support of the Group's Human Resources Department. During the meeting held on December 10th , 2014, the Remuneration Committee expressed a positive opinion on the Group's Global Reward Policy for 2015, which was subsequently approved by the Board of Directors on December 18th, 2014. The Global Reward Policy provides the Group Human Resources Department with both the guidelines needed to ensure consistent Group-wide management and the flexibility needed to meet the specific needs of the different Countries.
2. PRINCIPLES
The primary objective of the Group's Global Reward Policy is to align the performance targets of the Company's resources with those of the Group, as well as to attract, motivate and retain talented managers and the key resources within the organization and, more in general, to strengthen Group integration through:
- a shared philosophy, consistent with Amplifon's strategy, size and needs;
- a single remuneration system for the Executives and the Key Managers, and solid guidelines for the rest of the Company's staff, particularly with regard to the Talent category;
- a shared and transparent set of rules and processes.
2.1 Performance Based
The remuneration is primarily linked to the performance of the individual, the team and the Group as a whole. Structured performance evaluation processes make it possible to identify the best performances and reward them in a selective manner, linking Group value creation to the individual performance. The short and medium/long term objectives are balanced to reflect each role profile and level of responsibility and are always kept aligned to the short-medium term business priorities.
2.2 Competitive & Attractive
The Global Reward Policy must allow the Company to attract and retain the organization's Talents and key performers. Amplifon's remuneration policy relative to fixed remuneration is in line with the market average and in terms of Total Remuneration reaches the 75th percentile. The remuneration policy is mainly based on a Total Remuneration approach, instead of leveraging on the single remuneration components. The Company communicate to the employees the individual overall remuneration structure in a transparent way. Amplifon constantly monitors market trends and practices in the other Countries where the Group is active through the collaboration of Mercer, a global leader in salary surveys.
2.3 Fair & Equitable
In order to guarantee fair and equitable treatment with the Group, the Company's reward system is based on job grading. The criteria used to assess performances, to recognize talents and to review salaries are clearly outlined in the Global Reward Policy. The reward policy is applicable to the whole Company on the basis of defined clusters which have similar characteristics.
2.4 Lean & Cost Effective
In order to guarantee maximum control of labour costs, the Company adheres to a selective policy based on return on investment. The Company is committed to keep its reward systems simple and immediately comprehensible and, at the same time, protect the reward systems' sustainability in full compliance with the Company's P&L. The Group/Country HR and Finance functions are committed to a continuous and careful control of costs arising from remuneration policies.
The Global Reward Policy defines and calls for the use of different reward leverages in order to balance short and medium/long term objectives, motivate resources and selectively reward them, incentivising conduct which maximizes value for the Company and the Shareholders.
3.1 Base salary
The fixed component of the salary is determined based on detailed and up-to-date market surveys, on the position held, on the level of responsibility and is directly influenced by individual performance. Salary reviews are largely reserved for top performers, those who possess critical know how and Talents. The Group's guidelines provide for consistent differentiation in performance evaluation and define recommended salary ranges which are based on the relevant market practices and linked to the individual growth within the position held (entry level, developing, maturity, top driver/star).
3.2 Short term variable compensation (MBO)
Short term variable compensation aims to recognize the results obtained in a single year establishing a direct connection between compensation and performance. It depends on the cluster, the level of responsibility and is tied to a mix of individual and team performance, as well as Country and Group results. The incentive schemes are structured in such a way that performances which exceed the predetermined goals are rewarded more than proportionately and performances that fail to reach the minimum threshold are strongly penalized. Payout may even reach zero. The variable incentives foresee a "cap" on the incentive deliverable and must be "self-financed", considered both in terms of budget both on final finance balance.
3.3 Medium/long term variable compensation (share)
Currently different share incentive plans are still active: previous stock options plans not yet expired, the Performance Stock Grant Plan 2011-2020 (approved by the Shareholders' Meeting on December 13th, 2010) addressed to the CEO/GM, the Group International Key Managers and Talents and the New Performance Stock Grant Plan 2014-2021 (approved by the Shareholders' Meeting on April 16th, 2014) addressed to three different clusters of population:
-
Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, Executives (including Key Managers with strategic responsibilities) and Senior Managers (Country Market Directors and Corporate Senior Managers) who stand out for consistent and excellent performances and/or further development potential;
-
- International Key Managers and Talents, both at Country and Group level;
-
- Acousticians and Sales Managers at different organizational level who stand out for excellent performances (approximately the 10% on Country total)
The main target in these plans' definition is to achieve an alignment between the interests of the shareholders and the one of the resources who are mainly and directly involved in long term value creation, together with retaining key resources of the organization. Also these incentives foreseen a cap in the maximum payout.

| CEO/GM PAY MIX |
|
|---|---|
| Base salary | 30% |
| Short Term variable component (MBO) |
30% |
| Medium/Long Term variable component (LTI Share) |
40% |
| Total Remuneration | 100% |
In keeping with the principles of our Reward Policy, the CEO/GM's pay mix consists of a significant variable component tied to results with a particular focus on sustainability and which gives more weight to the medium term variable component than to the short term one.
5.1 Base salary
Each year the Remuneration Committee assesses the CEO/GM's fixed remuneration in light of reference market standards and potentially proposes any necessary changes based on the principles of the Group's Global Reward Policy, as well as in light of the level of Total Remuneration per year.
5.2 MBO
The CEO/GM's variable incentive is linked to the Group's economic and financial performances. With regard to these components, each year the Remuneration Committee submits a proposal to the Board of Directors in which it identifies the parameters and targets to be used and, subsequently, verifies the results for the previous year.
More in detail, the following parameters were considered for 2015:
- Group EBITDA
- Group Net Sales
- Group Free Cash Flow
- RoS (EBIT/Net Sales) Existing Countries
The targets take into consideration the different factors deemed part of a balanced performance and reflect the priorities indicated in the Company's plans. The total incentive is equal to the sum of the single bonuses payable upon achieving the relative targets.
The targets to be reached are calculated on the basis of pre-determined exchange rates and the perimeter at the beginning of the reference fiscal year.
A minimum threshold is determined for each target under which the target is deemed to not have been achieved and, consequently, the payout linked to the single target will not be made.
In the event the targets for EBITDA, Net Sales, Free Cash Flow and RoS are exceeded a booster in continuum will be applied which allows for a payout of up to 200% of the EBITDA target and up to 150% of the Net Sales, Free Cash Flow and RoS targets. The Net Sales, Free Cash Flow and RoS boosters will be applied only in the event the EBITDA threshold is reached.
The only further condition for the payout, in addition to the targets achievement, is that the CEO/GM must be employed for the whole performance year and consequently until December 31st of the reference year.
Following the modification introduced by the new Code of Conduct on July 2014, the BoD has approved the inclusion of a claw-back clause into the operative rule of the MBO of the CEO/GM and the Key Managers. The clause foreseen the right of the Company to claim for reimbursement of the amounts paid on the basis of materially inaccurate performance metrics.

On April 28th 2014 the BoD has approved the Operative Rules of the Plan, the cumulative targets of the 2014- 2016 cycle and the first cycle of assignment. The details of the assignments are shown in Part 2 – Table 3A of this statement.
Following the modification introduced by the new Code of Conduct on July 2014, the BoD has approved the inclusion of a claw-back clause into the LTI share assignment letters of the CEO/GM and the Key Managers and a lock-up clause for the shares eventually vested. Considering the international best practices and the consistent vesting period of the plan the lock-up period has been defined in 1 financial year from the date of vesting of the rights.
6.4 Previous Stock Options/Performance Stock Grant plans
The Key Managers are currently beneficiaries of Stock Option plans approved in 2005, 2010 and of the Performance Stock Grant Plan 2011-2020 (the details of the assignments made under these plans are shown in Part 2 – Table 2 and 3A of this statement).
6.5 Additional insurance coverage
The Key Managers are covered, together with all the executives of Amplifon SpA, by a life insurance policy (only in the event of death) which is in addition to what is provided under the National Collective Labour Contract (CCNL Commercio) through the Antonio Pastore Fund. The policy will cover up to a maximum of € 360,000 which is the level under which an anamnestic questionnaire need not be filled out. The premium varies depending on the actuarial age of the insured and is determined definitively when coverage begins.
All of the Amplifon SpA executives, including the the Key Managers, also have medical coverage which provides for the refund of expenses, in addition to standard FASDAC coverage, and an annual medical checkup.
6.6 Benefits
The the Key Managers are beneficiaries of a Company car in accordance with and pursuant to Amplifon's Company car policies.
In 2012 the Company has introduced a flexible benefits program on a trial basis. Under this plan Key Managers, as well as all employees of Amplifon S.p.A, may select, within a predetermined budget and in accordance with the law (art. 100, comma 1 of TUIR) options which best fit his/her needs with a particular focus on education/culture and healthcare not provided for as part of the coverage referred to in paragraph 6.5.
6.7 Indemnity in the event of resignation, dismissal or termination
To date, there are no agreements regarding indemnity to be paid in the event of resignation, dismissal without cause or termination following a takeover bid, nor are there any agreements based on which non-cash benefits should be provided or maintained if the employee relationship is terminated.
6.8 Responsible of the Internal Audit function
The remuneration of the manager of the "Internal Audit" function is in line with the Remuneration Policy of the Group and consistent with the role / task assigned to him/her. In particular, the base salary is commensurate with the market benchmark of listed companies and to the levels of performances evaluated on the basis of individual goals set annually and key competences required by the position. The variable incentive is linked, as well as all Managers of Amplifon SpA to Group results and to a positive evaluation of individual objectives mentioned above.
7. MAIN CHANGES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRIOR YEAR
The Global Reward Policy 2015 confirms the setting applied with satisfactory results in the previous years. Given the persistent difficult macroeconomic environment, the global trends in reward and the indication in terms of company disclosure information quality provided by the European recommendations and the Italian bodies (in particular the indications of the new Code of Conduct) it has been paid particular attention to:
-
the differentiation within the salary review actions;
-
the quality of the company disclosure information – the Board of Directors on December 18th 2014, following the indication of the new Code of Conduct and in particular the application criteria 6.C.1 f), on advice of the Remuneration Committee has approved the introduction of a claw back clause for the variable incentives of the CEO/GM and the Key Managers with strategic responsibilities. This clause has been introduced into the operative rule of the short term incentive plan (MBO) and of the medium/long term plan (LTI share) and foreseen the right of the Company to claim for reimbursement of the amounts paid on the basis of materially inaccurate performance metrics. Considering also the international best practices the BoD has also introduced, for the LTI share plan of which the CEO/GM and the Key Managers with strategic responsibilities are beneficiaries, a lock up clause for the shares eventually vested. Taking into consideration the consistent vesting period of the plan the lock-up period has been defined in 1 financial year from the date of vesting of the rights.
-
the alignment with the medium/long term strategic priorities of the Company and the different business models currently existing in the Group. In particular, the BoD will submit to the next Shareholders' Meeting on April 21th 2015 the proposal of extension of the New Performance Stock Grant Plan 2014-2021 (cluster 3 – top performing audiologist) also to the audiologists not direct employees of the Group. This modification will allow the extension of this important rewarding and retention tool, very much appreciated after the 1° cycle of assignment, also within the different business models of the Group.
On March 3rd, 2015 the Board of Director based on the proposal of the CEO and on the advice of the Remuneration & Appointment Committee has approved the new organizational structure that foreseen the creation of the Chief Operating Office role and consequently the appointment of Enrico Vita as COO and General Manager of the Group. The remuneration framework of the COO/General Manager is in line with the Remuneration Policy applicable to the Key Managers with strategic Responsibilities (as defined in chapter 6 of this Statement).
