Letter of the Chairperson of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee

Dear Shareholders,

In my capacity as Chairperson of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, and also on behalf of the Committee and the Board, I am proud to present you Avio the "Report on the remuneration policy and compensation paid" of Avio S.p.A. (hereinafter "Avio" or the "Company").

On May 6, 2020, the Shareholders' Meeting appointed Avio's new Board of Directors, which will be in office until the date of the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2022 Annual Accounts. The Appointments and Remuneration Committee is now composed, in addition to myself, of Monica Auteri and Donatella Isaia.

One of this Report's aims is help increase the awareness of Stakeholders (shareholders, employees and customers) of how the Company's remuneration policies correlate with business strategies, in an increasingly complex context and in the face of new challenges that Avio faces, through its committed management.

Remuneration is an effective tool to align the interests of top management to those of the shareholders, contributing to the pursuit of corporate strategy and long-term interests, as well as to the sustainability of the Company. The ability to attract, retain and motivate management is a key factor for any company which, like Avio, operates in a highly-specialised sector requiring constant and rapid alignment to the requirements imposed by the market and technological development.

In this perspective, the Committee prepared and submitted for the approval of the Board of Directors a remuneration policy for 2022 (illustrated in the first section of this Report), in line with the corporate context of Avio and with the objectives set out by the Company. The remuneration policy for 2022 defined by Avio aims at pursuing the sustainable success of the business. The intent is to design a corporate strategy that is not only focused on economic, financial and equity results, but that is also able to make the most of human, social, relational and environmental capital, inspiring its corporate policies to sustainability, neutrality, inclusiveness and encouragement of equal opportunities.

As discussed in more detail below, the new policy differs from the previous year's policy in some ways. The most significant change stems from the Company's desire to maintain the purpose of the remuneration system of motivating management through challenging but achievable targets and ensuring that they remain with the Company. At its meeting of March 28, 2022, Avio's Board of Directors therefore resolved to cancel the 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles of the existing 2020-24 long-term monetary incentive plan, as the changes in the changed circumstances following the exceptional events of the last years and months compromised its effectiveness, making it extremely difficult to achieve the expected economic-financial targets. At the same time, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee developed a proposal for a new extraordinary performance share plan to replace the two cancelled cycles, which would provide for the allocation of shares in connection with the achievement of performance targets measured over the 2022-24 period and significantly reduced award opportunities compared to the two cancelled cycles. On March 28, 2022, the plan was approved by the Board of Directors, which resolved to submit it for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting called for April 28, 2022.

The additional changes made to the Policies are the result of an analysis of national and international best practices and the vote cast by shareholders at the Shareholders' Meeting of April 29, 2021, in addition to ongoing dialogue with investors and stakeholders. Specifically, a change was introduced in the mechanism for calculating the incentives of Senior Executives, in line with the changes already made in 2021 to the annual variable system for managers and office workers, while keeping the maximum caps on awards unchanged.

The Appointments and Remuneration Committee considers that the remuneration policy described in this Report takes into consideration the recommendations of Company stakeholders in order to incentivise the achievement of strategic targets by the Company and to align the interests of the members of corporate boards

and top management to the overriding target of creating sustainable value for shareholders in the long-term. To this end, it should be recalled that top management is directly involved in business risk by means of holdings in the share capital of Avio S.p.A. These are held through the investment vehicle In Orbit S.p.A. which, to date, represents 4.1% of share capital at December 31, 2021, and is the third largest shareholder of the Company. Moreover, this equity investment has increased over time from 3.7% at the time of listing to the current 4.1%, demonstrating the alignment of interests between management and shareholders in relation to business risk.

INTRODUCTION

This Report was prepared by Avio in accordance with Article 123-ter of the CFA, Article 84-quater of the Issuers' Regulation and Annex 3, Schedule 7-bis - recently updated - in addition to, on the basis of self-regulation, Article 5 of the Corporate Governance Code, with which Avio complies.

Pursuant to Article 123-ter of the CFA, the Report comprises two sections.

Section I outlines the Remuneration Policy adopted by the Company for Financial Year 2022, with regards to the following parties:

  • (i) Members of the Board of Directors, distinguishing between Executive and non-Executive Directors;
  • (ii) Members of the Board of Statutory Auditors;
  • (iii) Group Senior Executives.

Section I of the Report also outlines the procedures utilised for the preparation and adoption of the Remuneration Policy, in addition to the bodies and parties responsible for the Policy's correct implementation.

The Remuneration Policy was approved by the Board of Directors on March 28, 2022, with the favourable opinion of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee. As resolved, the Remuneration Policy will be updated on an annual basis.

The drafting of the Remuneration Policy as regards the comparisons of the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, the members of the Board of Directors and Company Committees, was supported by Willis Towers Watson, a leading human resources development and organisation consultancy firm, with reference made to the remuneration policies of 35 Italian and European companies which are overall comparable to Avio and, particularly, to the following more significant peers belonging to the STAR segment, Italian Stock Exchange of Borsa Italiana: Bologna Airport, Brembo, Fiera di Milano, Cairo Communication, Interpump Group, IMA, Mondadori, Elica, ERG, Cementir, Datalogic, Gefran, BIESSE, Exprivia, Unieuro, OpenJobMetis and Prima Industrie.

As regards the assessments in relation to the remuneration of Senior Executives, the Company was supported by the Korn Ferry consultancy firm and utilised the Top Executive Italia market as a reference. This includes people in Top Management positions in Italian companies operating in comparable sectors to Avio.

Section II of the Report for the year 2021 outlines each of the items comprising the remuneration of the individuals listed at points (i), (ii) and (iii), as well as an analysis (in a specific table) of the remuneration paid to these parties, in any regard and in any form by the Company or by its subsidiaries in 2021, in addition to remuneration not yet paid at the Report approval date, although relating to 2021. In addition, a comparison for the years 2019-2021 between the change in compensation for members of the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors, employee compensation and the Company's performance is shown.

A relative table, as per Article 84-quater, paragraph 4 of the Issuers' Regulation, presents holdings in the Company or its subsidiaries by these parties and by parties related to them.

This Report is sent to Borsa Italiana and is made available to the public at the registered office of Avio (in Rome, via Leonida Bissolati 76, Rome) and on the Company's website www.avio.com "Corporate Governance" section, at least twenty-one days before the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2021 Annual Accounts.

On March 28, 2022, Avio's Board of Directors resolved to submit: (i) Section I of the Report on the 2022 Remuneration Policy to a binding vote of the Shareholders' Meeting; and (ii) Section II on compensation paid in 2021 to an advisory vote.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction

The Remuneration Policy and Report represents the liaison between the Company's strategic development targets and management action. The structure and rationale for the policies are designed to be consistent with the Company's goals of growth and long-term shareholder value creation. In particular, the selection of economic and financial indicators and the processes for defining and monitoring targets are designed to support and incentivise management to achieve the Group's targets.

Avio's business model and long-term sustainability is based on its capacity for development and technological innovation, and therefore on its ability to attract and develop highly qualified resources at both managerial and technical-scientific level. For this, the remuneration policy is a key tool. The criteria and tools adopted in the policy incorporate the most advanced elements of national and international best market practices. In this context, long-term sustainability, a structural characteristic of the Group's long history, is a priority target that led in 2020 to the inclusion of specific parameters, complementary to the economic and financial targets, against which to measure management performance. These sustainability targets reinforce the active role that Avio has always played in collaboration with the main institutional stakeholders at an international level (such as the European Space Agency, the European Union and the European Commission),- at a national level (such as the Italian Space Agency and the Presidency of the Council of Ministers), and at a local level (such as the Municipal Administration of Colleferro).

In confirmation of the strategic nature of the Group's sustainability targets, it should be noted that a specific internal Board Committee was set up in 2020 to guarantee alignment between the Group's strategic and sustainability targets. Management has also expressed its continuing commitment to transparently communicating sustainability performance through the preparation of the Non-Financial Statement, which Avio has published since 2018.

Principles of Avio's remuneration

Avio's Remuneration Policy for Executive Directors and Senior Executives is based on the following principles and criteria:

  • this policy seeks to attract, retain and motivate individuals of high professional standing, with particular regard to key positions for the development and management of the business;
  • a link with Company's performance and risk profile;
  • the alignment of the interests of Company Management with the pursuit of the target to contribute to the corporate strategy, to create value for shareholders over the long-term and to achieve sustainable performance over time.

Main changes in the 2022 Remuneration Policies

The key changes introduced in the 2022 Policies include:

  • updating of the mechanisms in the annual incentive system for Senior Executives, to provide more clarity in the process of calculating targets, in line with the changes to the annual incentive system already in place from 2021 for Avio's middle management and other employees. The update involved removing the corporate "multiplier" and adjusting the reward/performance correlation accordingly. The theoretical maximum levels have not changed. The change did not affect the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, in his third year of office;
  • introduction of a new extraordinary long-term incentive plan to replace the 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles of the monetary LTI plan:
    • o in fact, Avio's Board of Directors, at its meeting of March 28, 2022, resolved to cancel the 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles of the existing 2020-24 long-term monetary incentive plan, whose retention and incentive purposes for management have ceased to exist in consideration of the changed circumstances caused by the exceptional events of the last few years. The COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian-Ukrainian crisis are the main factors that have eroded the currency of the economic-financial targets to which these cycles were linked;
    • o at the same time, the Board of Directors resolved to submit for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting of April 28, 2022 an extraordinary performance share plan that provides for a single allocation of company shares at the end of the 2022-24 performance period, depending on the degree to which a target reflecting the Company's economic and financial sustainability is achieved. The beneficiaries of the plan are the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and managers who are recipients of the two cancelled cycles (2020-22 and 2021-23) of the monetary plan. The nominal value of the award at the start of the extraordinary plan, which will only occur if approved by the Shareholders' Meeting, corresponds to a reduced portion equal to 60% of the target awards of the cancelled 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles
  • in the context of the recurring multi-year monetary plan, for the third allocation cycle 2022-2024, the weighting of ESG metrics in determining the premium is increased from 10% to 16%; the overall

weighting of the economic-financial indicators is therefore 84% compared to the original 90% of the previous cycles;

▪ improved ex-ante disclosure of the ESG metrics used in incentive plans.

Results of voting on 2021 Policies

The Remuneration Policy defines the principles and guidelines adopted by Avio for the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors and Senior Executives.

As resolved, the Remuneration Policy will be updated on an annual basis.

1. GOVERNANCE - PROCEDURES FOR THE ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE REMUNERATION POLICY

1.1. Parties involved in the preparation, approval and any revision, as well as implementation of the Remuneration Policy

The principal parties and boards involved in the preparation, approval and any revision of the Remuneration Policy are the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and the Board of Statutory Auditors. The Board of Directors, the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee are also responsible for the correct implementation of the Remuneration Policy and oversee its correct implementation. A brief description of the duties, which in accordance with the applicable regulation and the By-Laws are required of these Boards with regards to the remuneration of the Directors, is provided below.

In 2020, the Sustainability Committee was set up, a new internal Board Committee composed only of Independent Directors whose task is to assist the Board of Directors with investigative functions, of a propositional and consultative nature, in the evaluations and decisions relative to sustainability issues falling within the remit of the Board, and whose work will constitute an important contribution to strengthening the link between the Remuneration Policies and Avio's sustainability strategy.

Shareholders' Meeting

The Shareholders' Meeting:

  • (i) establishes the total remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors in accordance with Article 2364, paragraph 1, No. 3) of the Civil Code, also in accordance with Article 2389, paragraph 3 of the Civil Code and Article 15 of the By-Laws;

The Appointments and Remuneration Committee provides consultation and proposals, and in terms of remuneration:

  • a. assists the Board of Directors in developing and revising the Remuneration Policy;
  • b. periodically evaluates the adequacy, the overall consistency and the concrete application of the remuneration policy of Senior Directors and Executives of the Company, utilising for this latter the information provided by the Chief Executive Officer/ General Manager and draws up for the Board of Directors related proposals;
  • c. presents proposals or expresses opinions to the Board of Directors on the remuneration of Executive Directors and other senior Directors in office, as well as establishing the performance targets related to the variable component of this remuneration and monitors the application of the decisions adopted by the Board verifying, in particular, the achievement of the performance targets;

  • e. reports to the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the financial statements through the Chairperson of the Committee or another member appointed by the latter - upon the means to perform their duties, with respect to remuneration-related tasks attributed to the Committee.

The Committee is also assigned, with respect to remuneration issues alone, the duties allocated to the committee responsible for related party transactions as per the Related Party Transactions Policy adopted by the Company. For transactions with significant related parties, where the Committee does not include at least three Independent Directors, the controls at Article 14 of the stated Policy apply.

This committee guarantees the broadest scope of information and transparency on the remuneration of the Executive Directors, as well as the manner for determining their remuneration. In any case, as per Article 2389, paragraph 3 of the Civil Code, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee has solely the function of presenting proposals, while the power of determining the remuneration of Executive Directors remains with the Board of Directors, having consulted with the Board of Statutory Auditors and in any case with the abstention of the interested Directors regarding decisions upon their own remuneration.

The Appointments and Remuneration Committee consists of three Non-Executive Directors, independently appointed by Board of Directors' motion of April 14, 2020, namely:

  • Giovanni Gorno Tempini (Chairperson);
  • Monica Auteri;
  • Donatella Isaia.

At the time of their appointment, the Board of Directors positively assessed the Independent Directors Giovanni Gorno Tempini, Monica Auteri and Donatella Isaia as having adequate knowledge and expertise in financial matters and experience in the field of remuneration policies.

The composition, tasks and procedures of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee are governed by the Corporate Governance Code and the regulation adopted by the Committee.

Where considered necessary or beneficial for the execution of its duties, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee may utilise outside remuneration policy consultants. In 2021, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee met on eight occasions. The meeting attendance of Committee members is reported in the table at the bottom of Section 4.2.1 of the Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Report, available on the Company's website www.avio "Corporate Governance" section.

3. REMUNERATION POLICY

3.1. TARGETS AND PRINCIPLES OF THE REMUNERATION POLICY

Avio's Remuneration Policy is based on the following key principles and is defined according to the following criteria:

  • this policy seeks to attract, retain and motivate individuals of high professional standing, with particular regard to key positions for the development and management of the business, through a remuneration structure which recognises the value of the individual and their contribution to company growth.
  • the link with the Company's performance and strategy: the remuneration recognises the achievement of individual and corporate performance targets, referring to quantitative economic-financial indicators consistent with the targets set by the Company's industrial, business and sustainability plan. Targets are set and measurable, and rewards are attributed according to the level of performance achieved.
  • the alignment of the interests of Company management with the pursuit of the target to create value for the shareholders and stakeholders of Avio over the long-term through an appropriately balanced system of fixed and variable components, on the basis of the strategic targets and the risk management policy of the Company, and the setting of limits for the variable components which also reward results which exceed the assigned targets, the integration of targets with the sustainability strategy of the Company.

Avio's Remuneration Policy contributes to the attainment of the Company's mission, values and strategies, taking into account the remuneration and conditions of Group employees, through:

· a fair and inclusive approach to all Company employees, to promote equal opportunities and recognise skills;

· a reward system that recognises individual contributions and the responsibilities of the role covered, and takes into account market benchmarks, in line with the "weighting" of positions within the organisation;

· a structured compensation package that takes into account employees' needs and the annual remuneration benchmarks prepared by the Company.

In line with the above principles, the Company shall present this document for the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting of April 28, 2022.

3.2. OUTLINE OF THE REMUNERATION POLICY

The Remuneration Policy provides that the fixed and variable components (this latter in turn split between short and medium/long-term) are established on the basis of principles and processes according to the beneficiary category.

In this regard, on May 11, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company, on the proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, identified, updated the scope of the Senior Executives, in light of the positions and respective roles held within the Group. This consists of four Executives, two of whom were identified as Senior Executives in 2021.

The Company in any case considered it appropriate to create a remuneration system based on the Executive/managerial responsibilities of the parties concerned and therefore independently set the criteria for determining the remuneration of:

  • (i) Directors, and more specifically:
    • (a) Non-Executive Directors; and
    • (b) Executive Director;
  • (ii) Board of Statutory Auditors;
  • (iii) Senior Executives.

(i) DIRECTORS

All directors receive a fixed remuneration which appropriately compensates the work and commitment provided by the Directors to the Company.

On May 6, 2020, the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolved to award each Director a gross annual remuneration of Euro 35,000 and a gross annual remuneration of Euro 120,000 to the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, in continuity with the amount of fees established for the members of the Board of Directors in the previous three-year period and in line with market practices.

On July 28, 2020, the Board of Directors also resolved to award the members of the internal Board Committees the following fees, in line with market practices:

  • i) to the members of the Control and Risks Committee, a gross annual fee for the Chairperson of Euro 30,000.00 and for the other members of Euro 15,000.00 each;
  • ii) to the members of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and the Sustainability Committee a gross annual fee for the Chairperson of Euro 25,000.00 each and for the other members of Euro 10,000.00 each.

(a) NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS

The Non-Executive Directors (whether independent or not) are granted a fixed remuneration, the overall amount of which is established by the Shareholders' Meeting, allocated on an individual basis by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 2389 of the Civil Code.

The remuneration of these Directors is not based on any financial results or specific targets of the Company and is commensurate with the commitment required, also in relation to participation on internal Board Committees, for which specific remuneration is allocated.

(b) EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS

The remuneration of the Executive Director (Chief Executive Officer/General Manager) is adequately balanced between short-term development targets and the sustainable creation of value for Shareholders over the longterm period.

Specifically, the Executive Director's remuneration structure is made up of:

• a fixed component: this component takes into account the breadth and strategic relevance of the role played and the distinctive subjective characteristics and strategic skills of the managers assigned to the

role. The amount is sufficient to remunerate the service also in the case of the partial reaching of the performance targets upon which the variable remuneration component is based, and therefore - among other issues - discourages the undertaking of conduct not consistent with the risk propensity of the company. More specifically, the fixed component is calculated according to the size of the managed business, the various areas of responsibility covered, the Avio Group's complex corporate structure, including internationally, also taking account of market practice for similar positions at industrial sector companies (benchmark by Willis Towers Watson).

• a short-term variable component: the purpose of this component is to encourage management to work towards the achievement of annual targets that maximize the Avio Group's value, in line with shareholders' interests. This component is conditional upon reaching a minimum performance threshold with respect to the annual targets set by the Board of Directors, upon proposal by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee. The indicators used to define the annual business performance targets (and to calculate the actual amount of the short-term variable component) are the Group's financial and earning parameters, as described below.

The value of the annual variable component for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager of Avio is 75% of the fixed remuneration on achievement of the target, with a maximum of 100% of the fixed remuneration. The payment of discretional bonuses is not envisaged;

• a long-term variable component: this component seeks to incentivise Executive Directors to maximise the value of the Group and to align their interests with those of the shareholders. The payment of this remuneration may be deferred to the conclusion of a three-year timeframe, subject to the achievement of the performance conditions (as per the following paragraphs) measured over a multi-year period.

For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, the value of the target bonus, with reference to the 2022- 2024 allocation cycle within the scope of the 2020-24 Plan, is equal to 60% of fixed remuneration, with a maximum value of 75%.

We note on March 28, 2022, Avio's Board of Directors resolved to cancel the 2020-2022 and 2021-2023 cycles of the 2020-24 Multi-Year Plan, of which the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager was a beneficiary, with a target bonus value equal to 60% of fixed remuneration and a maximum value equal to 75%.

Subject to the approval of the extraordinary 2022-24 performance share plan by the Shareholders' Meeting on April 28, 2022, the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager will also be the beneficiary of a one-time grant of rights to receive shares of the Company at the end of the 2022-24 performance period, depending on the degree to which a target reflecting the Company's financial viability is achieved. The initial nominal value of the award - which corresponds to a reduced portion of the sum of the awards related to the cancelled 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles - for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager is equal to 72% of fixed compensation upon achievement of targets and 108% in the event of maximum performance.

fringe benefits: fringe benefits provide for the provisions of goods and/or services in line with market practice and applicable regulations. In particular, the Chief Executive Officer of Avio, in addition to the benefits under the Industry Executives Collective Bargaining Agreement, is assigned two company cars and supplementary life and total and permanent invalidity accident insurance.

For a description of the short-term variable component and of the long term component of the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, reference should be made to Paragraph 3.3.

(ii) BOARD OF STATUTORY AUDITORS

All the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors receive a fixed remuneration which appropriately compensates the work and commitment provided by the Statutory Auditors to the Company.

The Shareholders' Meeting held on May 6, 2020 resolved, for the 2020-2022 three-year period, to attribute to the Chairperson of the Board of Statutory Auditors a remuneration of Euro 50,000 per year and to the Statutory

Auditors a remuneration of Euro 35,000 per year, in line with the remuneration attributed to the Board of Statutory Auditors for the 2017-2020 three-year period and with the practices of the listed companies of the STAR segment with levels of capitalisation comparable to Avio.

(iii) SENIOR EXECUTIVES

The remuneration of Senior Executives is structured so as to focus management on company results and the creation of value.

The remuneration of Senior Executives is composed of:

  • a fixed component: this component takes into account the breadth and strategic relevance of the role played and the distinctive subjective characteristics and strategic skills of the beneficiary, in addition to market practice for comparable positions. The amount is sufficient to remunerate the service also in the case of the non-reaching of the performance targets upon which the variable remuneration component is based;
  • a short-term variable component: the purpose of this component is to encourage management to work towards the achievement of annual targets that maximize the Avio Group's value, in line with shareholders' interests. This component is conditional upon reaching a minimum performance threshold with respect to the annual targets set by the Board of Directors, upon proposal by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee. The indicators used to define the annual business performance targets (and to calculate the actual amount of the short-term variable component) are the Group's financial and earning parameters. Each Executive is also assigned individual targets specifically related to specific areas of responsibility, measured according to predominantly quantitative, financial and earnings indicators, or operating indicators. In determining the short-term variable component, the achievement of business results and individual/area/function results are therefore combined.

The average value of the annual variable component for Avio Senior Executives is 30% of the fixed remuneration on achievement of targets, with a maximum amount (capped) of 50% of the fixed remuneration.

No forms of discretional variable remuneration are envisaged.

• a long-term variable component: this component seeks to incentivise Senior Executives to maximise the value of the Group and to align their interests with those of the shareholders. The payment of this remuneration may be deferred to the conclusion of a three-year timeframe, subject to the achievement of the long-year performance conditions.

The value of the target bonus is 35% of fixed remuneration with respect to the three allocation cycles under the 2020-24 Plan, with a maximum value of 44%.

On March 28, 2022, Avio's Board of Directors approved the cancellation of the 2020-2022 and 2021-2023 cycles of the 2020-24 Multi-Year Plan.

Subject to the approval of the extraordinary 2022-24 performance share plan by the Shareholders' Meeting on April 28, 2022, the Senior Executives will also be the beneficiaries of a one-time grant of rights to receive shares of the Company at the end of the 2022-24 performance period, depending on the degree to which a target reflecting the Company's financial viability is achieved. The initial nominal value of the award which corresponds to a reduced portion of the sum of the awards related to the cancelled 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles - for Senior Executives is equal to an average of 42% of fixed compensation upon achievement of targets and 63% in the event of maximum performance.

fringe benefits: fringe benefits provide for the provisions of goods and/or services in line with market practice and applicable regulations. In particular, the Senior Executives of Avio, in addition to the benefits under the Industry Executives Collective Bargaining Agreement, are assigned a company car and

supplementary life and total and permanent invalidity accident insurance.

For the description of the short-term variable component and the long-term variable component for Senior Executives, reference should be made to Paragraph 3.3.

3.3. VARIABLE REMUNERATION COMPONENT

The variable remuneration system of Avio includes a short-term variable component and a medium/longterm variable component.

3.3.1 SHORT-TERM VARIABLE COMPONENT

The annual incentive system provides for the payment of a monetary bonus on the reaching of the pre-set annual targets. This system is reviewed every year by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, which proposes to the Board of Directors the targets for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and the Senior Executives, identifying the metrics.

The beneficiaries of the system are, in addition to the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and the Senior Executives, Avio's managers and professionals. The value of the target bonus is based also on the level of responsibility of the role, according to pre-set "brackets"; each beneficiary, depending on their bracket, is assigned a variable target bonus expressed as a percentage of the fixed remuneration on achieving the pre-set targets; a maximum amount is established where the targets are exceeded.

The right to a variable bonus is subject to achieving a minimum level of results relating to the company's preestablished economic and financial targets. These are measured in terms of Adjusted EBITDA and Net Financial Position, each with equivalent weight.

The Group's Adjusted EBITDA (50%) and Net Financial Position (50%) are used as performance indicators. Business targets are set with respect to the budget approved by the Board of Directors.

The choice of the two economic-financial indicators allows for a balanced reflection of the Company's economic and financial performance, in line with the practices of the benchmark (Korn Ferry). In particular, the Adjusted EBITDA expresses the capacity to generate profits independently of any non-recurring effects attributable to a single year; the Net Financial Position expresses the ability to maintain the net cash position within the value pre-set for the reference year.

For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, the bonus is exclusively linked to company targets in terms of Adjusted EBITDA and Net Financial Position, establishing:

  • a level of performance minimum level (threshold), on reaching which 40% of fixed remuneration is paid; no bonus is paid below the threshold level. The minimum is 74.1% of the target value for Group Adjusted EBITDA and 74.4% for the Group Net Financial Position parameter;
  • a target performance level, on the achievement of which the target bonus of 75% of the fixed remuneration is recognised;
  • a maximum performance level, on achievement of which the maximum value of the relative bonus, equal to 100% of the fixed remuneration (cap), is recognised. The maximum performance level is 105.7% of the target value for Group Adjusted EBITDA and 114.2% for the Group Net Financial Position.

The following diagram shows the link between targets and the bonus for achieving the minimum, target and maximum targets for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager (the value of the bonus is expressed as a % of fixed remuneration)

Given the confidential nature of the strategic targets, it is not possible to provide more ex-ante detail; instead, Section II of the Report sets out details of the results achieved.

For Senior Executives, the bonus is linked for 50% to company targets (Adjusted EBITDA, Net Financial Position, Injury frequency rate) and for 50% to individual targets: between four and five specific management targets, to which economic-financial indicators are linked, or rather annual operating indicators. In determining the overall individual performance, each target is assigned a differing weight.

The annual target for the theoretical bonus for Senior Executives is 30% of the fixed remuneration on achieving the target targets; the maximum amount (capped) is 50% while the minimum amount is 8% (corresponding to the individual and corporate threshold value below which no bonus is earned).

The following diagram shows the link between targets and the bonus expected upon achievement of the minimum target, target, maximum for Senior Executives (the value of the bonus is expressed as a % of fixed remuneration) for 2022:

In the event of failure to achieve the economic-financial targets, no bonuses are paid, not even for the part relating to the specific function or individual targets.

In the case of particularly challenging annual goals, the Board has the discretion to define a (de)multiplier that may increase or decrease the value of the final bonus paid. The demultiplier is defined consistently with the level of achievement of the annual targets in terms of Adjusted EBITDA and Net Financial Position of the Group, as represented below. As from the 2022 Policies, this (de)multiplier is not applied to Senior Executives, for whom the same calculation method is adopted as applies to the other employees receiving annual variable remuneration from 2021. This decision has involved readjusting the bonus levels planned for target results and adjusting the bonus/performance correlation accordingly, while keeping the maximum theoretical value of the bonus unchanged. The (de)multiplier continues to be applied to the annual bonus for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager. Unlike the position for Senior Executives, it is linked solely to the Company's economic and financial parameters, and the bonus levels planned for target results have not been adjusted.

The adoption of the (de)multiplier does not in any case change the maximum value of the bonus payable to the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, equal to 100% of fixed remuneration.

For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager for 2022, the performance scenarios and (de)multiplier are:

3.3.2 LONG-TERM VARIABLE COMPONENT

2020-2024 Incentive plan

On March 25, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the new 2020-2024 incentive Plan, whose beneficiaries are the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, Senior Executives and other Senior Managers.

The Plan is divided into three allocation cycles, starting in 2020, 2021 and 2022 respectively, and provides for the payment of a monetary bonus at the end of a three-year performance period, based on the degree of achievement of predetermined targets. The choice of a cash plan was also considering the fact that Avio's top management is already directly involved in the business risk through their participation in the capital of Avio, held through the investment vehicle In Orbit S.p.A., which today represents 4.1% of the share capital.

The long-term incentive plan is linked to two three-year cumulative economic and financial performance indicators of the business plan and to ESG indicators: the economic and financial indicators are the three-year

cumulative Reported EBITDA and the Return on Invested Capital2 ; there are four ESG indicators as indicated below: (i) Gender diversity3 ; (ii) Gender pay gap4 ; (iii) Waste Management 5 ; (iv) Employee Training6 .

For the 2022-2024 third cycle of the plan, economic and financial indicators weigh 84% overall and ESG metrics weigh 16% (4% for each of the four indicators). The weighting of the ESG component has increased compared from the previous 2020-2022 and 2021-2023 cycles, which envisaged a total weighting for the economicfinancial indicators of 90% (45% for cumulative three-year reported EBITDA and 45% for Average Return on Invested Capital) and a 10% weighting for the ESG metrics (2.5% for each of the four indicators).

There are a total of 12 beneficiaries of the first cycle of the 2020-2022 long-term incentive plan, including the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and Senior Executives.

There are a total of 13 beneficiaries of the second cycle of the 2021-2023 long-term incentive plan, including the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and Senior Executives.

There are a total of 13 beneficiaries of the third cycle of the 2022-2024 long-term incentive plan, including the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager and Senior Executives.

With regard to the financial performance levels linked to the indicators outlined, it was decided to utilise the three-year target values of the Business Plan. For ESG metrics, please refer to the performance levels approved by the Board of Directors as currently applicable, for each cycle at the time of allocation. The performance targets of ESG indicators are defined as a three-year average value.

For each of the selected indicators, there is:

  • − a minimum performance level (threshold) of 90% of the target value for the cumulative three-year Reported EBITDA, 85% for the average three-year Return on Invested Capital, 90% for Gender Diversity, 96% for the Gender Pay Gap, 90% for Waste Management and 90% for Employee Training; no bonus is recognised below the threshold level;
  • − a target performance level, on the achievement of which the target bonus is recognised for each of the two indicators considered;
  • − a maximum performance level, equal to 110% of the target value for the cumulative three-year Reported EBITDA and 115% for the average three-year Return on Invested Capital, 110% for Gender Diversity, 102% for the Gender Pay Gap, 110% for Waste Management and 110% for Employee Training, on achievement of which the maximum relative bonus value (capped) is recognised.

On achieving the intermediary performance levels, the bonus value is calculated for the linear interpolation.

The performance levels are in line with that established by the Group's Business Plan.

The value of the bonus is:

  • For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager at 60% of fixed remuneration for target results, 75% in the event of maximum performance, 45% in the event of minimum performance;
  • Senior Executives at 35% of fixed remuneration for target results, 44% in the event of maximum

In the event of a change of control, the incentive plan establishes an accelerated bonus assignment, with pro rata temporis reduction and on the basis of the degree to which the targets linked to the maturation of the bonus are achieved.

2022-2024 Performance Share Plan

On March 28, 2022, the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, resolved to submit for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting called for April 28, 2022 an incentive (performance share) plan that provides for the grant of rights to receive free Company shares, subject to the achievement of predetermined performance targets, at the end of a three-year performance period 2022-24.

The plan was approved by the Board of Directors at the same time as the cancellation of the 2020-22 and 2021-

7 The minimum and maximum performance range for the Gender Pay Gap, as an exception with respect to the other ESG indicators, is 96% at the minimum value and 102% at the maximum value

23 cycles of the 2020-24 Multi-Year Plan, whose retention and incentive targets for management had ceased to apply in view of changed circumstances. The exceptional events of recent years have, in fact, made it impossible to achieve the original economic and financial targets to which these cycles were linked.

As such, the new performance share plan is extraordinary and non-recurring in nature:

  • the recipients of the plan are the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, Senior Executives and other managers, all of whom were already beneficiaries of the 2020-22 and 2021-23 cycles of the cancelled 2020-24 Multi-Year Plan;
  • the value of the grants related to the Plan is defined by applying a significant reduction to the original value of the grantsrelated to the two cycles of the money plan subject to cancellation and corresponds to 60% of the sum of the target grants.

The extraordinary performance share plan is linked to the achievement of a single target, Order Intake, which reflects the sustainability and growth of the business in the medium term and corresponds to the cumulative value of new contracts acquired in the three-year period 2022/2024. In choosing the indicator, consideration was given to all the metrics linked to the variable remuneration of Avio's management.

The selected indicator involves:

  • − a minimum performance level (threshold), equal to 80% of the target value, upon achievement of which the minimum number of Shares, equal to 75% of the target, is allocated and below which no bonus is granted;
  • − a target performance level, upon achievement of which the target number of Shares are allocated;
  • − a maximum performance level, equal to 120% of the target value, upon achievement of which the maximum number of Shares (cap), equal to 150% of the target number, are granted.

Upon achievement of intermediate performance levels, the number of Shares to be granted will be calculated by linear interpolation.

The performance levels are in line with that established by the Group's Business Plan.

The value of the bonus is:

  • For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager at 72% of fixed remuneration for target results, 108% in the event of maximum performance, 54% in the event of minimum performance;
  • Senior Executives at 42% of fixed remuneration for target results, 63% in the event of maximum performance, 32% in the event of minimum performance.

The following diagram shows the link between targets and the bonus for achieving the minimum, target and maximum targets for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager (the value of the bonus is expressed as a % of fixed remuneration and corresponds to the nominal value of the allocation):

Given the confidential nature of the strategic targets, it will be not possible to provide more ex-ante detail; instead, Section II of the Report sets out details of the results achieved.

In the event of a change of control, a public tender offer or public exchange offer on Avio shares, the Board of Directors, at its sole discretion, shall have the power, subject to the opinion of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, to grant the beneficiaries the right to receive all or some of the allocated Shares in advance, also in consideration of the actual achievement of the performance targets, and to provide for the early termination of the Plan.

For additional information regarding the plan, please refer to the related Prospectus (www.avio.com, Governance/Shareholders' Meeting 2022 section).

3.4. CLAWBACK

Avio's incentive plans - both short- and long-term - include a clawback clause which permits the recovery of amounts issued on the basis of manifestly erroneous or false data in the 5 years subsequent to issue.

3.5. EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS

Upon the occurrence of extraordinary events that render the performance scenarios used to formulate the targets set in the plan essentially out of date, the Company's Board of Directors may, by proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, make the corrections to the targets set out in the incentive plan required to ensure that the plan's substantial and economic contents remain unchanged.

For the purposes of the above, "extraordinary events" are defined as: (i) events of an extraordinary and/or nonrecurring nature and/or not attributable to the core business of the Avio Group (including, without limitation, acquisitions or disposals of equity investments or business units) considered of particular importance and/or currently not provided for in company planning that entail a significant change in the scope of the Company or the Avio Group; (ii) significant changes in the macroeconomic and/or competitive scenario or other extraordinary factors with a significant impact beyond the actions within the management's control; and/or (iii) significant events, not only of an economic or financial nature.

Any changes to performance targets must safeguard the principles and guidelines according to which the plan has been formulated by not introducing undue advantages or penalties for either the beneficiaries of the plan or the Company.

4. POLICY UPON BENEFITS ON CONCLUSION OF OFFICE

For the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager alone, in the case of resolution of contract by the Company or dismissal for just cause, the payment of an all-inclusive indemnity is envisaged equal to two gross annual remunerations, that is, the sum of the gross annual fixed remuneration and the short-term variable remuneration at 100% of the fixed remuneration. This value includes any component relating to compulsory contractual provisions - the value of which to date, on the basis of Company seniority, amounts to 8 months' pay -, which will not be paid in the event of termination of employment by the Company or resignation for just cause. The all-inclusive allowance was reduced during 2019 from twenty-eight to twenty-four monthly payments.

For Senior Executives, there are no similar agreements that make advance provision for financial aspects in the event of termination of office, or relating to the possible early termination of the relationship at the initiative of the Company or of the person concerned. Instead, the safeguards in law and those provided for under the national collective bargaining agreements for Industry Executives apply. These take into account the role and age of the Executive at the time the relationship is terminated, and the annual salary.

Regarding the effects of early termination on long-term incentive, it is provided that:

  • For good leaver8 scenarios, with reference to the multi-year monetary plan, there is the possibility of paying the bonus on a pro-rata basis upon termination of employment; with reference to the performance share plan which is submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting of April 28, 2022, the beneficiary may retain the right to receive a number of shares on a pro-rata basis, based on the level of achievement of the performance targets;
  • In bad leaver scenarios, the beneficiary will permanently and fully forfeit the right to receive the allocations - monetary or in shares - under the plans.

The Company reserves the right to enter into consulting or collaboration agreements after the termination of the employment relationship, aimed at preserving the transfer of know-how and business continuity.

The Company in addition reserves the right to sign non-competition agreements involving specific roles requiring strategic knowledge, for whom this restriction is necessary in compliance with the statutory provisions and limitations. Currently, a non-compete agreement with the Chief Executive Officer and the General Manager is applicable for a total gross amount of six months of fixed remuneration. There are no specific insurance coverage, social security and pension payments for the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager following resolution of contract with the Company, except for those provided for by the National Collective Bargaining Agreement for Industrial Executives.

8 Good leaver scenarios include:

- removal from the office of Director prior to the conclusion of the term of office without cause;

- resignation from the office of Director if the beneficiary, without just cause, undergoes a revocation or non-confirmation of the proxies such that his or her relationship with the Company or the subsidiary is substantially altered;

- conclusion of the Company's Board of Directors not followed by renewal;

- with particular reference to Senior Executives and Managers, dismissal without just cause;

- death or disability of the beneficiary (due to illness or injury ascertained by a medical-legal expert report by a professional appointed by the Company) that entails the abstention from carrying out his or her duties for a period, continuous or non-continuous, of more than eight (8) months;

- voluntary resignation, only on the condition that the beneficiary fulfills the statutory retirement requirements and in the 30 subsequent days presents a request to access the relative benefits;

SECTION II

PART 1

In the first part of Section II of this Report, the following information is provided regarding the implementation of the 2021 Policies:

    1. Avio 2021 performance and incentives
    1. adequate, clear and understandable disclosure on each of the items comprising compensation matured for the financial year 2021 in favour:
    2. (i) the members of the Board of Directors;
    3. (ii) of the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors;
    4. (iii) of the other Senior Executives (information provided at aggregate level);

highlighting its compliance with the 2021 Policies and how compensation contributes to the Company's long-term results.

    1. the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager's pay mix in application of the 2021 Policies
    1. the change in compensation for members of the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors, employee compensation and the Company's performance is shown.

The remuneration policy in 2021, as verified by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee through the periodic assessment under the Corporate Governance Code, was implemented in line with the general standards approved by the Board of Directors and shared by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee.

The independent audit firm (Deloitte) has verified the preparation of Section II of the Policies.

Avio performance and incentives

The year 2021 saw Vega back in the skies in the early part of the year, as operations resumed in full, in compliance with the measures to contain the COVID-19 outbreak and with the known operational and logistical limitations and associated slowdowns. Avio's activities also focused preparing for the new Vega-C launcher, whose maiden flight is scheduled for May 2022.

Performance in 2021 was, on the whole, positive, but was impacted by the unexpected and significant increase in energy and gas costs in the fourth quarter.

With reference to the main corporate indicators in the annual incentive scheme, the results achieved are substantially in line with the targets for Adjusted EBITDA and exceed the maximum level for the Net Financial Position. A multiplier equal to 1.01 is applied to the bonus - as established by the Board of Directors - until the maximum value established at the time of allocation is reached. The actual values for the two indicators over the last three years and the target value for 2021 are set out below.

Net Financial
Position
(Euro
millions)
57.9 62.6 57.2 46.3

For the Executive Director, the value of the 2021 bonus is substantially in line with the target (76.3% of the fixed component). With respect to Senior Executives the 2021 bonus value averages 21.5% of the fixed component9 .

Under the long-term incentive plan, the bonus for the 2019-2021 cycle is linked to reaching two performance targets set in April 2019:

  • the three-year cumulative reported EBITDA target was not achieved, primarily due to the results for 2020 caused by the start of the health emergency and the increase in energy and gas costs in the last quarter of 2021;
  • the Operating Free Cash Flow target was met at the maximum level.

The amount of the bonuses that will be paid is 62.5% of the target opportunity: for the Chief Executive Officer this value is therefore equal to 33.75% of fixed remuneration, while for Senior Executives it is equal to 14.39%8 of the current fixed remuneration component. Fixed remuneration refers to those in effect at the time of assignment of the target.

1. Items comprising 2021 remuneration

Chairperson of the Board of Directors, Non-Executive Directors and Board of Statutory Auditors

With reference to the Chairperson and the Non-Executive Directors of the Board of Directors and the Chairperson and the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors in office as at the date of this report, it is noted that:

  • On May 6, 2020, the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolved to award each Director a gross annual remuneration of Euro 35,000 and a gross annual remuneration of Euro 120,000 to the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, in continuity with the amount of fees established for the members of the Board of Directors in the previous three-year period and in line with market practices. On July 28, 2020, the Board of Directors also resolved to award the members of the internal Board Committees the following fees:
    • i) to the members of the Control and Risks Committee, a gross annual fee for the Chairperson of Euro 30,000.00 and for the other members of Euro 15,000.00 each;
    • ii) to the members of the other internal Board Committees i.e., Appointments and Remuneration Committee and Sustainability Committee - a gross annual fee for the Chairperson of Euro 25,000.00 each and for the other members of Euro 10,000.00 each.
  • The Shareholders' Meeting held on May 6, 2020 resolved, for the 2020-2022 three-year period, to attribute to the Chairperson of the Board of Statutory Auditors a remuneration of Euro 50,000 per year and to the Statutory Auditors a remuneration of Euro 35,000 per year, in line with the remuneration attributed to the Board of Statutory Auditors for the 2017-2020 three-year period and with the practices of the listed companies of the STAR segment with levels of capitalisation comparable to Avio.

The tables in Part 2 of this Section provide details of the compensation paid, consistent with the 2021 Policies and the Shareholders' Meeting motions noted above.

As of the date of this Report reversibility agreements are in place for the remuneration of some Directors. Specifically, Mr. Roberto Italia, Chairperson of Avio's Board of Directors, and Space Holding S.r.l. signed a reversionary agreement whereby the remuneration accrued for the position held by him is paid to Space Holding S.r.l. As regards the above, at December 31, 2020, the Company's payable towards Space Holding S.r.l. amounted to Euro 120,000.

For the 2020-2022 three-year period, the sole Executive Director (i.e. the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager) will not receive any additional remuneration for the positions taken on the Board of Directors and its internal Committees, as already receiving remuneration for the position of General Manager.

Finally, the Board of Directors of the Company in 2017 identified, further to the Executive Director of the company, an additional 4 Senior Executives. In 2021, the number of Senior Executives was reviewed: two managers were identified as Senior Executives and two managers ceased to be Senior Executives, one because of a change in role and the other because of retirement.

Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, Giulio Ranzo

The remuneration of Giulio Ranzo (Chief Executive Officer/General Manager) for 2021 includes the following components:

  • (i) fixed remuneration as an Executive of the Company, amounting to Euro 448,000;
  • (ii) annual variable remuneration relating to 2021, amounting to Euro 341,622.

The remuneration of the Senior Executives employed by the Company, reported in aggregate, for 2021 includes the following components:

(i) fixed remuneration as Executives, amounting to Euro 569,849;

Key:

  • Remuneration component considered: the values shown refer to total remuneration (fixed + annual variable component + long-term incentive matured in the reference year). With reference to the annual variable remuneration, the figures used to calculate the total annual remuneration of employees are estimates, based on the information available at the date of this Report, in view of the fact that the actual value of the bonuses has not yet been determined on an individual basis for all the recipients of variable remuneration
  • Employee perimeter: this refers to Avio employees at December 31, 2021; the values of remuneration are reported on a full-time equivalent basis. The following are not included in the analyses: the Chief Executive Officer/General Manager, as this is one of the persons for whom individual information is reported, and employees seconded to other Group companies.

NOTE

(2B) Deferred Year Bonus: At its meeting of March 28, 2022, the Board of Directors approved the cancellation of the 2021-2023 cycle of the 2020-24 multi-year monetary plan. The reported value of the allocation made during 2021, therefore, as of the date of preparation of this document is "no longer payable".

(3A) Bonuses from prior years that are no longer payable: The values shown refer to the allocation for the 2020-2022 cycle of the 2020-24 multi-year monetary plan, the cancellation of which was approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting of March 28, 2022.

The value of the bonus under the 2017-2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan reported in Section II of the Report was adjusted during 2021 as a result of checks on calculation methods. Consequently, in January 2022, an additional amount of Euro 22,781 was paid to the Chief Executive Officer and an additional amount of Euro 8,970 was paid to Senior Executives under the Plan.
