I versamenti in denaro fatti dagli azionisti alla Società a titolo di finanziamento possono essere effettuati a termini di legge, anche in osservanza del combinato disposto degli articoli 2497-quinquies e 2467 del codice civile:

La legittimazione all'intervento in Assemblea e all'esercizio del diritto di voto è attestata dalla comunicazione alla Società, effettuata dall'intermediario, sulla base delle proprie scritture contabili relative al termine della giornata contabile del settimo giorno di mercato aperto precedente la data fissata per l'Assemblea in prima o unica convocazione. Le registrazioni in accredito o in addebito compiute sui conti successivamente a tale termine non rilevano ai fini della legittimazione all'esercizio del diritto di voto nell'Assemblea.
La comunicazione deve pervenire alla Società entro la fine del terzo giorno di mercato aperto precedente la data fissata per l'Assemblea in prima o unica convocazione ovvero entro il diverso termine stabilito dalle applicabili disposizioni regolamentari.

La delega può essere conferita anche con documento informatico sottoscritto in forma elettronica ai sensi dell'art. 135-novies, comma 6, del D. Lgs. n. 58/1998 e sue disposizioni attuative.

regolamento dei lavori assembleari.
Un candidato può essere presente in una sola lista, a pena di ineleggibilità.
Hanno diritto di presentare le liste gli azionisti cui spetta il diritto di voto che, da soli o insieme ad altri azionisti, rappresentino almeno la percentuale del capitale sociale fissata dalla Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa.

La titolarità della percentuale del capitale sociale è determinata avendo riguardo alle azioni che risultano registrate a favore degli azionisti nel giorno in cui la lista è depositata presso la Società, con riferimento al capitale sociale sottoscritto alla medesima data.
La relativa attestazione può essere comunicata alla Società anche successivamente al deposito della lista purché sia fatta pervenire entro il termine previsto per la pubblicazione delle liste da parte della Società.
La Società consente agli azionisti che intendono presentare le liste di effettuare il deposito tramite almeno un mezzo di comunicazione a distanza, secondo le modalità che renderà note nell'avviso di convocazione dell'Assemblea e che consentono l'identificazione degli azionisti che procedono al deposito.
La quota di partecipazione richiesta per la presentazione delle liste di candidati per l'elezione del Consiglio di Amministrazione viene indicata nell'avviso di convocazione dell'Assemblea chiamata a deliberare sulla nomina di tale organo.
Al fine di assicurare l'equilibrio tra generi in conformità alla normativa primaria e secondaria pro tempore vigente, ogni lista che contenga un numero di candidati pari o superiore a tre deve prevedere la presenza di candidati di entrambi i generi, in modo che al genere meno rappresentato appartenga un numero di candidati almeno pari a quanto stabilito dalle applicabili disposizioni di legge e regolamentari.
Le liste sono depositate presso la Società entro il venticinquesimo giorno precedente la data dell'Assemblea convocata in prima o unica convocazione per deliberare sulla nomina dei componenti del Consiglio di Amministrazione e messe a disposizione del pubblico presso la sede sociale, sul sito internet e con altre modalità previste dalla Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa con regolamento almeno ventuno giorni prima della data dell'Assemblea.
Le liste sono corredate:

Le liste presentate senza l'osservanza delle disposizioni che precedono non vengono sottoposte a votazione.
Qualora un soggetto che risulti collegato ad uno o più azionisti di riferimento abbia votato per una lista di minoranza l'esistenza di tale rapporto di collegamento assume rilievo soltanto se il voto sia stato determinante per l'elezione dell'amministratore.
I quozienti così ottenuti sono attribuiti ai candidati di ciascuna lista, secondo l'ordine dalla stessa previsto.
Quindi, i quozienti attribuiti ai candidati delle varie liste vengono disposti in un'unica graduatoria decrescente. Risultano eletti, fino a concorrenza del numero degli amministratori fissato dall'Assemblea, coloro che hanno ottenuto i quozienti più elevati, fermo restando che deve comunque essere nominato amministratore il candidato elencato al primo posto della seconda lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti e che non sia collegata in alcun modo, neppure indirettamente, con i soci che hanno presentato o votato la lista risultata prima per numero di voti.
Pertanto, qualora il suddetto candidato non abbia ottenuto il quoziente necessario per essere eletto, non risulterà eletto il candidato che ha ottenuto il quoziente più basso tratto dalla lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti ed il consiglio verrà completato con la nomina del candidato elencato al primo posto della seconda lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti.
Al candidato elencato al primo posto della lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti spetta la carica di Presidente del Consiglio di Amministrazione.
Nel caso in cui per completare l'intero Consiglio di Amministrazione più candidati abbiano ottenuto lo stesso quoziente, risulta eletto il candidato della lista che non abbia ancora eletto alcun amministratore o che abbia eletto il minor numero di amministratori.
Nel caso in cui nessuna di tali liste abbia ancora eletto un amministratore ovvero tutte abbiano eletto lo stesso numero di amministratori, nell'ambito di tali liste risulta eletto il candidato di quella che abbia ottenuto il maggior numero di voti.
In caso di parità di voti di lista e sempre a parità di quoziente, si procede a nuova votazione da parte dell'Assemblea, risultando eletto il candidato che ottiene la maggioranza semplice dei voti.
Qualora così procedendo, all'interno del nominando Consiglio di Amministrazione non risultasse eletto almeno il numero minimo di Amministratori Indipendenti richiesto dalla normativa primaria e secondaria pro tempore vigente, si procederà come segue: i candidati che risulterebbero eletti per ultimi in base al quoziente progressivo e tratti dalla prima lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti, sono sostituiti dai candidati immediatamente successivi, che hanno ottenuto i quozienti progressivi inferiori, ed identificati nella medesima lista come Amministratori Indipendenti.
Qualora ad esito delle votazioni e delle operazioni di cui sopra la composizione del Consiglio di Amministrazione non sia conforme alla normativa primaria e secondaria pro tempore vigente inerente l'equilibrio tra generi, il candidato del genere più rappresentato eletto per ultimo in base al quoziente progressivo e tratto dalla prima lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti, è sostituito dal primo candidato del genere

meno rappresentato che ha ottenuto il quoziente progressivo inferiore ed indicato nella medesima lista, purché sia rispettato il numero minimo di amministratori indipendenti richiesti dalle disposizioni pro tempore vigenti. Qualora ciò non fosse, il candidato sostituito del genere più rappresentato sarebbe di volta in volta il soggetto eletto per penultimo, terzultimo e così via, in base al quoziente progressivo sempre tratto dalla prima lista che ha ottenuto il maggior numero di voti,
Qualora così facendo non si assicuri il risultato richiesto, la sostituzione avverrà con delibera assunta dall'Assemblea a maggioranza relativa, previa presentazione di candidature di soggetti appartenenti al genere meno rappresentato.
Il candidato indicato al primo posto della lista risulta eletto Presidente del Consiglio di Amministrazione.
Qualora così procedendo, in presenza di un nominando Consiglio di Amministrazione non risultino rispettate le disposizioni pro tempore vigenti in materia di Amministratori Indipendenti e/o di equilibrio tra generi, si procederà mutatis mutandis come sopra descritto al comma 10 che precede del presente articolo.
La nomina assembleare di amministratori in sostituzione di amministratori cessati dalla carica, anche in seguito a cooptazione dei medesimi, è liberamente effettuata con le maggioranze di legge, fermo restando l'obbligo di rispettare il numero minimo di Amministratori Indipendenti e le disposizioni della normativa primaria e secondaria pro tempore vigente in materia di equilibrio tra generi.

Per la medesima convocazione possono essere utilizzati anche più d'uno dei mezzi sopra elencati.
In occasione delle riunioni del Consiglio di Amministrazione, con cadenza almeno trimestrale, gli amministratori ed il Collegio Sindacale sono informati, a cura degli organi delegati ed anche relativamente alle società controllate, sul generale andamento della gestione e sulla sua prevedibile evoluzione, nonché sulle operazioni di maggior rilievo economico, finanziario e patrimoniale e su quelle nelle quali gli amministratori stessi abbiano un interesse, per conto proprio o di terzi, o che siano influenzate dal soggetto, ove sussista, che esercita l'attività di direzione e coordinamento nonché sull'eventuale esecuzione delle operazioni con parti correlate. Qualora ragioni di urgenza o di opportunità lo richiedano, la comunicazione può essere effettuata agli interessati anche per iscritto.

If the convocation notice does not indicate the calls subsequent to the first, the Shareholders' Meeting shall be intended as convened on a single call under article 2369, paragraph 1 of the Civil Code.
For the constitution and resolutions of the meetings, both Ordinary and Extraordinary, on
first and subsequent calls, and in the case of a single call, the provisions of law shall apply, except as otherwise provided in these Articles of Association.
and the term of office within the limits established by the law.
A candidate may appear on only one list under penalty of ineligibility.
Shareholders having the right to vote who, alone or together with other shareholders, represent at least the percentage of share capital set by the National Commission for Companies and Stock Exchange are entitled to submit lists.
The ownership of the percentage of share capital is determined with regard to the shares registered in favour of the shareholders on the day when the list is filed at the Company, with reference to the share capital subscribed at that date.
The related declaration can be communicated to the Company also after the filing of the list, provided it is received by the deadline for publication of the lists by the Company.
The Company allows shareholders who intend to submit lists to proceed with filing through at least one means of remote communication, in the manner which shall be disclosed in the convocation notice of the Shareholders' Meeting and which allows the identification of shareholders who shall proceed with filing.
The shareholding portion required for the submission of lists of candidates for the election of the Board of Directors shall be indicated in the convocation notice of the meeting called to approve the appointment of said body.
A shareholder may not submit or vote for more than one list, even through a third party or through trust companies. Shareholders belonging to the same group - intended as the parent company, subsidiaries and companies under joint control - and shareholders who are parties to a shareholders' agreement pursuant to article 122 of Legislative Decree no. 58/1998 regarding issuer's shares may not submit or vote on more than one list, even through a third party or trust companies.
For the purposes of compliance with the minimum number of Independent Directors referred to in paragraph 1 of this article, each list shall identify a minimum number of candidates, calculated on the basis of the total number of candidates therein, who satisfy the independence requirements provided by primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore.
In order to ensure gender balance in accordance with primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore, each list containing a number of candidates equal to or greater than three shall have the presence of candidates of both genders, so that the less represented gender has a number of candidates at least equal to that provided by applicable provisions of law and regulations.
Lists are filed at the Company within the twenty-fifth day before the date of the meeting called on first or second call to resolve on the appointment of the members of the Board of Directors and made available to the public at the registered office, on the website and other manner prescribed by the National Commission for Companies and the Stock Exchange with regulation at least twenty-one days prior to the Meeting. The lists contain:
a) information regarding the identity of the shareholders who submitted the lists, indicating the percentage of shares held;
Lists presented without compliance with the foregoing provisions shall not be submitted for voting.
If an individual who is connected to one or more reference shareholders has voted for a minority list, the existence of said relation shall only become relevant if the vote was crucial for the election of the director.
The resulting quotients are attributed to the candidates of each list, according to the order envisaged therein. Therefore, the quotients attributed to the candidates of the various lists are in a single list in decreasing order. The candidates elected, up to the number of directors set by the Shareholders' Meeting, are those who have obtained the highest quotients, without prejudice to the fact that the director appointed shall be the candidate at the top of the second list that obtained the highest number of votes and that is not connected in any way, even indirectly, with the shareholders who submitted or voted for the list with the most votes.
Therefore, if said candidate has not obtained the quotient necessary to be elected, the candidate who obtained the lowest quotient from the list that obtained the most votes shall not be deemed appointed, and the board will be completed with the appointment of the candidate at the top of the second list that obtained the most votes.

If none of these lists has elected a director or they have all elected the same number of directors, within these lists, the candidate elected shall be from the list that obtained the most votes.
In case of equal number of list votes and equal quotient, there shall be a new vote by the Shareholders' Meeting, and the candidate who obtains the simple majority of votes shall be elected.
If proceeding as such, within the new Board of Directors at least the minimum number of Independent Directors required by the primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore is not elected, the procedure will be as follows: candidates who would be elected last based on the progressive quotient and taken from the first list that obtained the most votes, are replaced by candidates immediately following, which obtained the lower progressive quotients, and identified in the same list as Independent Directors.
If following the vote and operations above the composition of the Board of Directors does not comply with primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore regarding the gender balance, the candidate of the most represented gender elected last on the basis of the progressive quotient and taken from the first list that obtained the most votes, is replaced by the first candidate of the less represented gender that obtained the lower progressive quotient and indicated in the same list, providing compliance with the minimum number of independent directors required by the provisions in force pro tempore. If this is not the case, the replaced candidate of the most represented gender is from time to time the subject elected for penultimate, third last and so on, based on the progressive quotient also taken from the first list that obtained the most votes.
If, doing so, the result requested is not ensured, substitution shall take place by Shareholders' Meeting resolution decided by the relative majority, upon the presentation of the candidates that belong to the less represented gender.
The candidate at the top of the list shall be elected Chairperson of the Board of Directors.
If proceeding as such, in the presence of a new Board of Directors the provisions currently in force are not complied with as regards Independent Directors and/or gender balance, the procedure shall be mutatis mutandis as described above in paragraph 10 of this article.
In the absence of lists, and if through the voting mechanism by list the number of candidates elected is less than the number established by the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors shall respectively be appointed or integrated by the Meeting with the majorities required by law.
In the event of termination of office, for any reason, of one or more directors, those remaining in office shall replace them by co-option in accordance with and for the effects of article 2386 of the Civil Code, subject to the requirement to comply with the minimum number of Independent Directors and the provisions of primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore, as well as the Codes of Conduct, also with reference to the gender balance.
The appointment of directors from the Meeting to replace directors resigned from office, also as a result of cooption of the same, is freely performed with the legal majority, without prejudice to the obligation to respect the minimum number of Independent Directors and the provisions of the primary and secondary legislation in force pro tempore with regard to gender balance.
The Board of Directors shall choose and appoint from among its members a Chairperson who shall represent the Company, if the Shareholders' Meeting has not already done so, or if the Chairperson appointed by the Meeting should terminate their office for any reason.
The Board of Directors may elect one or more Deputy Chairpersons who replace, with representation of the Company, the Chairperson in case of absence or impediment thereof.
The actual exercise of power of representation by the Deputy Chairperson proves the absence or impediment of the Chairperson and releases third parties from any verification or responsibility in this regard.

In case of appointment of several Deputy Chairpersons, the Board of Directors shall determine the method of replacement of the Chairperson.
The Board of Directors may, finally, appoint a Secretary who need not be a Board member.
The Board of Directors shall meet as often as the Chairperson deems it necessary or when requested in writing by at least two of its members.
The Chairperson of the Board of Directors may also call a meeting in a place other than that of the registered office.
The Chairperson of the Board of Directors will call the meeting, or anyone acting on his/her behalf, also through the appropriate engagement to another Director or the Secretary, or the Board of Statutory Auditors or a standing auditor, subject to communication to the Chairperson of the Board of Directors by registered letter or telegram, fax or email sent at least five days beforehand, or in urgent cases, by telegram or fax or email sent at least one day before the date set for the meeting, to each member of the Board of Directors and each standing auditor, to the addresses previously communicated by the recipients.
More than one of the means listed above can also be used to call the meeting.
The meetings of the Board of Directors may also be held by video or audio conference on the condition that all participants can be identified, can follow the discussion and participate in real time during the discussion, and can receive, send or view documents.
Where appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting, the Honorary Chairperson collaborates with the Chief Executive Officer in drawing up and implementing communication, social, cultural and/or institutional initiatives that involve the Company and - if he/she is not a director - can take part in the meetings of the Board of Directors, in an advisory role and without voting rights, expressing opinions on the matters subject to discussion.
At meetings of the Board of Directors, held at least on a quarterly basis, the directors and the Board of Auditors are informed, by the delegated bodies and also with regard to subsidiaries, on the general performance of operations and outlook, and on the most important economic, financial and equity transactions and those in which the directors have an interest, on their own or third-party account, or are influenced by the party, if any, exercising the activity of management and coordination and on the possible execution of transactions with related parties. If reasons of urgency or opportunity require, the communication may be made to recipients concerned also in writing.
For the validity of the constitution and the resolutions of the Board of Directors, the presence of a majority of its members in office is required and, in the absence of convocation, the presence of all its members in office and regular auditors.
Resolutions shall be adopted with the favourable vote of the majority of directors present.
The resolutions of the Board of Directors shall be recorded in the minutes, signed by the Chairperson and secretary of the meeting.
If because of resignations or other causes half of directors shall no longer be in office, in case of even number, and more than half, in case of odd number, the entire Board of Directors shall be deemed terminated. The Board of Auditors, which is responsible, until the reconstitution of the Board, for the ordinary management of the Company, shall promptly convene the Shareholders' Meeting to appoint a new governing body.
The loss of the requirements of article 17) of the Articles of Association shall result in immediate termination of office.
