I TEM 3 A UTHORISATION OF THE BUY-BACK PLAN FOR E NI SHARES AFTER FIRST CANCELLING THE PREVIOUS BUY-BACK PLAN AUTHORISED BY THE S HAREHOLDERS M EETING ON M AY 10, 2013 , WITH RESPECT TO THAT PORTION NOT IMPLEMENTED. R ELATED AND CONSEQUENT RESOLUTIONS.

Dear Shareholders, The Shareholders Meeting held on May 10, 2013 authorised the Board of Directors to purchase on the Mercato Telematico Azionario , within 18 months of that date, up to a maximum of 363,000,000 ordinary Eni shares for a price of no less than euro 1.102 per share and no more than the official stock market price reported for the shares on the trading day prior to each individual transaction, plus 5%, up to a total amount of euro 6,000,000,000.00 in accordance with the procedures established in the Rules of the Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.pA..

The buy-back plan began on January 6, 2014. By March 21, 2014, the Company had bought back 8,800,000 shares representing 0.24% of its share capital for euro 150,808,309 equal to 2.51% of the maximum total amount of euro 6,000,000,000.00 established by the foregoing resolution. The average purchase price was euro 17.1373 per share.

The Board plans to continue the buy-back plan and therefore you are asked to authorise, after first cancelling the authorisation approved on May 10, 2013 in respect of the portion not implemented as of the Shareholders Meeting date, the purchase of ordinary Eni shares pursuant to Article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code and Article 132 of the T.U.F., under the terms and with the methods to be indicated below, in accordance with Article

Table of Contents

144- bis of the Issuers Regulation adopted by Consob Resolution No. 11971 of May 14, 1999 as amended.

Reasons for which authorisation to acquire treasury shares is requested

The purchase of treasury shares represents an effective and flexible management tool to increase value for Shareholders over time in line with the remuneration policies of other major oil companies.

Maximum number and class of the shares to which the authorisation refers

Authorisation is requested for the purchase, including in multiple tranches, of Eni S.p.A. ordinary shares, up to a maximum number of 363,000,000 shares, corresponding to approximately 9.9885% of the share capital, including the number of treasury shares acquired subsequent to the Shareholders Meeting of July 16, 2012 authorising the buy back. More specifically, as of March 21, 2014, the number of treasury shares held by Eni totalled 20,188,287 ordinary shares, representing 0.56% of share capital. Enis subsidiaries do not hold shares in the Company.

Useful information for the purpose of a thorough assessment of compliance with the provisions of Article 2357, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code

The maximum number of treasury shares held by Eni S.p.A., also taking into account any ordinary shares that may be held by subsidiaries, must never exceed the maximum limit established by the applicable pro tempore regulations. In order to ensure compliance with the limits under the law, appropriate measures will be taken to ensure timely and complete disclosure regarding the shareholdings of Eni S.p.A.'s subsidiaries. For the purchase in question, the amount of euro 6,000,000,000.00 (six billion euro and zero cents) was allocated to a specific reserve, formed by using the existing budgetary reserves and designated for the purchase of treasury shares. The purchase of treasury shares will therefore take place through the utilisation of the above mentioned reserves and hence within the limits of the available reserves reported in the most recent financial statements. At the time of each acquisition, the necessary accounting entries will be made in observance of the provisions of law and the applicable accounting principles.

Duration for which the authorisation is requested

Authorisation to purchase treasury shares is requested for a period of eighteen months, beginning from the relative resolution of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting. The Board of Directors may proceed to purchase treasury shares, one or more tranches and at any time, in respect of the applicable regulations, with the speed held to be appropriate for the interests of the Company.

Minimum and maximum price for the treasury shares to be purchased

Purchases of treasury shares shall be carried out in respect of the operating conditions established by market practices governing the acquisition of treasury shares, admitted by Consob pursuant to Article 180, paragraph 1, letter c) of the T.U.F. with Resolution No. 16839 of March 19, 2009, as well as EC Regulation No. 2273/2003 of December 22, 2003, where applicable, without prejudice to the fact that the unit price of the shares cannot in any case be lower than a minimum of euro 1.102, and no greater than the official price recorded on the trading day before each individual purchase operation, plus 5%.

Table of Contents

Methods by which the purchase shall be made

The acquisitions shall be carried out on the Mercato Telematico Azionario of Borsa Italiana S.p.A. in accordance with Article 144- bis , paragraph 1, letter b) of the Issuers Regulations and the provisions in any case applicable, so as to allow respect for the equal treatment of Shareholders as envisaged in Article 132 of the T.U.F., and hence on regulated markets, in accordance with the procedures established in the Rules of the Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.pA., which do not allow for the direct matching of buy orders with sell orders.

Dear Shareholders, you are invited to resolve as follows:

" The Ordinary Shareholders Meeting

resolves

1) to cancel, for the portion not yet implemented as of the date of the Shareholders Meeting, the authorisation to the Board of Directors to acquire treasury shares as resolved by the Shareholders Meeting of May 10, 2013;

2) to authorise the Board of Directors, pursuant to Article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code, to purchase on the Mercato Telematico Azionario - in one or more transactions and in any case within 18 months from the date of this resolution - up to a maximum of 363,000,000 (three hundred and sixty-three million) ordinary Eni shares, for a total amount of no more than 6,000,000,000.00 euro (six billion euro and zero cents), including, respectively, the number and the value of treasury shares purchased subsequent to the Shareholders Meeting of July 16, 2012 authorising the share buy-back, at a unit price of no less than 1.102 euro (one point one zero two euro) and not more than the official price reported by Borsa Italiana for the shares on the trading day prior to each individual transaction, plus 5%, in accordance with the procedures established in the Rules of the Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.pA. In order to respect the limit envisaged in the third paragraph of Article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code, the number of shares to be acquired and the relative amount shall take into account the number and amount of Eni shares already held in the portfolio;

3) to grant the Board of Directors all the broadest powers to execute this resolution, including through the use of delegation, including the possible assignment of tasks to intermediaries authorised pursuant to law, with the speed held to be appropriate for the interests of the Company, as permitted by applicable regulations, in the manner envisaged in Article 144-bis, paragraph 1, letter b) of the Issuers Regulation, taking into account market practices inherent to the acquisition of treasury shares admitted by Consob pursuant to Article 180, paragraph 1, letter c) of the T.U.F., with Resolution No. 16839 of March 19, 2009, as well as EC Regulation No. 2273/2003 of December 22, 2003, where applicable " .

circumstances governed in whole or in part to foreign law, on the basis of an evaluation of substantive equivalence.

In presenting this proposal, the shareholders the Ministry of the Economy and Finance and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A. ask the Board of Directors of the Company to draft the agenda of the Shareholders Meeting called to approve the financial statements for 2013 so that the extraordinary business concerning the introduction of the above clause in the By-laws is addressed before the ordinary business concerning the electionof the Board of Directors.

In this regard, it is appropriate to underscore the connection of this proposal with the presentation of slates for the election of the new Board of Directors, in order to allow the shareholders to assess the consequences with regard to eligibility and forfeiture that the approval of the clause would entail.

The shareholders the Ministry of the Economy and Finance and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A. also entrust the Board of Directors with the task of identifying the most appropriate position for the aboveclause, so that the latter fits organically into the By-laws.

If the above clause should be approved by the Shareholders Meeting, the shareholder the Ministry of the Economy and Finance also asks the Board of Directors of the Company to adjust Group policies to reflect the principles contained therein in the manner considered most appropriate.

Finally, please note that the proposed amendment to the By-laws does not trigger the right of withdrawal on the part of Shareholders who do not approve the clause pursuant to Article 2437 of the Italian Civil Code.

Assessment of the Board of Directors of Eni S.p.A. pursuant to Article 125- ter , paragraph 3 of the T.U.F.

Dear Shareholders, Pursuant to Article 2367 of the Italian Civil Code, at the request of the Shareholders the Ministry of the Economy and Finance and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A. - owners, at the

Table of Contents

time the request was made, of respectively 157,552,137 ordinary Eni S.p.A. shares, equal to about 4.3353% of the share capital, and 936,179,478 ordinary Eni S.p.A. shares, equal to around 25.7604% of the share capital, which jointly represent 30.1% of the share capital of Eni S.p.A. - the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting is called to discuss and resolve upon the introduction of additional integrity requirements for Directors and the related grounds for ineligibility and forfeiture in the By-laws.

The request is legitimate, since the proposing Shareholders possess the shareholding required by law (5%) to exercise the right provided for by Article 2367, paragraph 1, of the Italian Civil Code, and it is not a matter on which the Shareholders Meeting is called to resolve under the law on the basis of a proposal, a project or a report of the Directors.

The Board of Directors supports the opportunity to introduce rigorous integrity requirements for Directors in order to fully protect the Company's reputation, an essential asset, but, without addressing the issue of whether or not the clause is legal, it invites the Shareholders to assess whether the effects of the clause, which are triggered by a mere indictment, without even any finding of criminal liability, are actually in their interests. The Shareholders should therefore assess whether, in the absence of harm to the Company's reputation, they should be barred from electing or retaining those most capable of managing the Company or whether, in any case, managerial stability and the certainty that the market demands are placed at risk.

The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the clause can be most naturally incorporated into the By-laws by adding a new Article (17- bis ) and amending Article 17.3 appropriately.

Below, we reproduce the current and proposed versions of Article 17.3 of the Eni By-laws, as well as the new Article 17- bis .

Dear Shareholders, Therefore, you are invited to resolve upon the proposal made by the Shareholders the Ministry of the Economy and Finance and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A. to introduce additional integrity requirements for Directors and the related grounds for ineligibility and forfeiture in the By-laws by amending Article 17.3 and adding a new Article 17- bis to the By-laws. In the event of approval, we invite you to grant to the Chief Executive Officer the fullest powers so that said officer may, including by delegating powers to others and in accordance with the time limits and procedures provided for by law, execute this resolution, filing the By-laws with the Company Register, and, where appropriate or necessary, making any formal additions, amendments or removals required for the purpose of recording the By-laws with the Company Register.

I TEM 5 A MENDMENTS TO THE B Y-LAWS: A RTICLE 16

Dear Shareholders, The current wording of Article 16 of the By-laws of Eni S.p.A. establishes that, as a general rule, Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meetings shall be held on more than one call, leaving the use of a single call to the discretion of the Board of Directors. This formulation was introduced in 2011 in order to implement the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 27 of January 27, 2010, transposing Directive 2007/36/EC (the "Shareholders Rights Directive"), which amended the first paragraph of Article 2369 of the Italian Civil Code, establishing the right of recourse to a single call instead of multiple calls. Subsequently, Legislative Decree No. 91 of June 18, 2012, (the "Corrective Decree") further amended the first paragraph of Article 2369 of the Italian Civil Code, establishing the single call as a general rule, unless the By-laws state otherwise. In order to align the text of the By-laws with the new legislative provision, as well as to simplify and provide greater certainty about the date of the Shareholders' Meeting, we propose that Article 16.2 of the By-laws be amended to provide that Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders Meetings shall normally be held on single call, without prejudice to the possibility of the Board of Directors using more than one call when it deems it appropriate to do so.

I TEM 6 D ETERMINATION OF THE NUMBER OF MEMBERS OF THE B OARD OF D IRECTORS

Dear Shareholders, The Shareholders Meeting has been called to appoint the Members of the Board of Directors, as the term of office of the present Directors, appointed by the Shareholders Meeting held on May 5, 2011, draws to an end. Pursuant to Article 17.1 of the By-laws, the Board of Directors shall consist of no fewer than three and no more than nine members and the Shareholders Meeting determines the number within these limits. The Shareholder Meeting on May 5, 2011 set the number of Directors at nine. Article 17.1 of the By-laws also states that, in addition to the Directors appointed as specified above, the Minister of the Economy and Finance, in agreement with the Minister for Economic Development, may appoint an additional non-voting director, pursuant to Decree Law No. 332 of May 31, 1994 ("Decree Law No. 332/94"), ratified with amendments by Law No. 474 of July, 30, 1994. Until now the Minister of the Economy and Finance has not exercised such right. It should be noted on the date of the Shareholders Meeting, this provision in the By-laws could cease to be in effect, along with other clauses in the By-laws concerning the special powers of the State, if the regulations identifying strategic assets in the energy, transportation and communications sectors, approved on March 14, 2014 by the Italian Council of Ministers, come into force, in implementation of Decree Law No. 21 of March 15, 2012, ratified with amendments

Dear Shareholders,

Table of Contents

Pursuant to Article 17.3 of the By-laws, the Board of Directors, with the exception of any Director appointed in accordance with Decree Law No. 332/94 2 , is appointed by the Shareholders Meeting on the basis of the slates presented by the Shareholders (and, if necessary, by the Board of Directors), on which the candidates shall be listed in numerical order. The slates presented by Shareholders must be filed in the manner indicated in the notice calling the Meeting at least twenty-five days prior to the date of the Shareholders Meeting at single call, i.e. by April 13, 2014, automatically extended to April 14, 2014 (the first subsequent business day). Each Shareholder may, severally or jointly, submit and vote on a single slate only. Controlling persons, subsidiaries and companies under common control may not submit or participate in the submission of other slates, nor can they vote on them, either directly or through nominees or trustees. As used herein, subsidiaries are those companies referred to in Article 93 of the T.U.F. Each candidate may stand on a single slate, on penalty of disqualification. Only those Shareholders who, severally or jointly, represent at least 0.5% of the share capital are entitled to submit a slate, as established by Consob Resolution No. 18775 of January 29, 2014. Ownership of the minimum holding needed to submit slates is determined with regard to the shares registered to the Shareholder on the date on which the slates are filed with the Company. Related certification may be submitted after the filing, provided that submission takes place by the deadline set for the publication of the slates by the Company. Article 17.3 of the By-laws contains specific provisions on the composition of the slates aimed at ensuring compliance with the rules on gender balance on company Boards, pursuant to Law No. 120 of July 12, 2011. Since this is the first time that this rule has been applied, under the law at least one-fifth of the Director positions to be appointed, rounded up, i.e. two, must be filled by the less-represented gender. Therefore pursuant to Article 17.3 of the By-laws, slates submitted by Shareholders for the Board of Directors that contain three or more candidates must include at least one member of the less-represented gender among the candidates indicated. Together with the filing of each slate, on penalty of inadmissibility, the following documents shall also be filed:

| - | statements of each candidate
accepting his/her nomination; |
| --- | --- |
| - | the curriculum vitae of each
candidate containing adequate personal and professional
information; |
| - | statement of each candidate
affirming that he/she meets the requirement of
independence set forth by Article 148, paragraph 3, of
the T.U.F., as well as of the absence of any grounds
making him/her ineligible or incompatible for such
position and that he/she satisfies the integrity
requirements; |
| - | the identity of the
Shareholders who have presented such slates and the
overall percentage of ownership of Eni share capital
held. |

According to Consob Communication No. DEM/9017893 of February 26, 2009, Shareholders other than those who severally or jointly hold a controlling or majority shareholding, should file, along with their slates:

a statement specifying any relationships, if significant, and the reasons why these relationships are not considered determinant to the existence of the aforementioned relationships.

The slates, together with the abovementioned information, will be made available at the Companys registered office, on the Companys website and through Borsa Italiana at least twenty-one days prior to the date set for the Shareholders Meeting in single call, i.e. by April 17, 2014. At least one Director, if there are no more than five directors, or at least three Directors, if there are more than five, shall satisfy the independence requirements established for the members of the board of statutory auditors of listed companies in Article 148, paragraph 3, of the T.U.F., referenced by Article 147- ter of the T.U.F.. Shareholders are invited to also take into account the independence requirements and the number of independent directors recommended by Article 3 of the Corporate Governance Code. The independent candidates shall be expressly indicated in each slate. All candidates shall also meet the integrity requirement applicable to the statutory auditors of listed companies under Article 148, paragraph 4, of the T.U.F., which also applies to directors pursuant to Article 147- quinquies , paragraph 1, of the T.U.F.. Furthermore, it should be noted that, as to item No. 4 on the agenda ("Amendments to the By-laws: Article 17 and new Article 17-bis"), the Shareholders the Ministry for the Economy and Finance and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti S.p.A. submitted a proposal to amend the By-laws that, if approved, will introduce additional integrity requirements for Directors and the related grounds for ineligibility and forfeiture. Therefore Shareholders are advised to take due account of the possibility that this change shall be approved and that, as a result, the requirements for the appointment of Directors may be modified. Finally, the Italian Corporate Governance Code advises Shareholders, in submitting their slates and subsequently appointing directors, to consider, in light of the BoD advice expressed by the Board on the issue, the professional qualifications, experience, including managerial experience, and types of candidates, in respect of the size of the issuer, the complexity of its activities and the specific characteristics of the business sector in which it operates, as well as the size of the Board of Directors. In this regard, the BoD advice expressed by the current Board of Directors has been published and is attached to this Report. Directors shall be elected in the following manner in accordance with Article 17.3 of the By-laws: a) seven-tenths of the Directors to be elected shall be drawn from the slate that receives the most votes of the Shareholders in the order in which they appear on the slate, rounded off in the event of a decimal number to the next lowest whole number; b) the remaining Directors shall be drawn from the other slates. Said slates shall not be connected in any way, directly or indirectly, to the Shareholders who have submitted or voted the slate that receives the largest number of votes. For this purpose, the votes received by each slate shall be divided by one or two or three depending upon the number of directors to be elected. The quotients, or points, thus obtained shall be assigned progressively to candidates of each slate in the order given in the slates themselves. The candidates of all the slates shall be ranked by the points assigned in single list in descending order. Those who receive the most points shall be elected. In the event that more than one candidate receives the same number of points, the candidate elected shall be the person from the slate that has not hitherto had a Director elected or that has elected the least number of directors. In the event that none of the slates has yet had a Director elected or that all of them have had the same number of directors elected, the candidate among all such slates who has received the highest number of votes shall be elected. In

26 -

the event of equal slate votes and equal points, the entire Shareholders Meeting shall vote again and the candidate elected shall be the person who receives a simple majority of the votes; c) if the minimum number of independent Directors required under these By-laws has not been elected following the above procedure, the points to be assigned to the candidates draw from the slates shall be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by each slate by the ordinal number of each of these candidates; the candidates who do not meet the requirements of independence with the fewest points from among the candidates drawn from all of the slates shall be replaced, starting from the last, by the independent candidates, from the same slate as the replaced candidate (following the order in which they are listed), otherwise by persons meeting the independence requirements appointed in accordance with the procedure set out in letter d). In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of directors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the lowest number of votes, or, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced; c-bis) if the application of the procedure set out in letters a) and b) does not permit compliance with the gender-balance rules, the points to attribute to each candidate drawn from the slate shall be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by each slate by the ordinal number of each of these candidates; the candidate of the over-represented gender with the fewest points from among the candidates drawn from all of the slates shall be replaced, without prejudice to the compliance with the required minimum number of independent directors, by the member of the less-represented gender who may be listed (with the next highest ordinal number) on the same slate as the candidate to be replaced, otherwise by a person to be appointed following the procedure set out in letter d). In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same minimum number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of directors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the fewest number of votes, or, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced; d) to appoint Directors who for any reason were not appointed pursuant to the above procedures, the Shareholders Meeting shall resolve, with the majorities required by law, to ensure that the composition of the Board of Directors complies with applicable law and the By-laws. With regard to the foregoing proposal of the Board of Directors, in accordance with Article 17.3 of the By-laws, the Shareholders Meeting is charged with appointing the Directors on the basis of the slates presented by those eligible to do so. The outgoing Board of Directors elects to not exercise its right to submit its own slate of candidates.

Dear Shareholders, You are invited to vote for one of the slates that will be submitted by the Shareholders on this item on the agenda.

Specifically, it is recommended that at least those relationships indicated under point 2 of the Consob Communication be listed. Alternatively, the lack of significant relationships should be indicated; - the reasons why these relationships do not give rise to the relationships of association referred to in Article 148, paragraph 2, of the T.U.F. and Article 144- quinquies of the Issuers Regulation.

If this does not permit compliance with the gender-balance rules, he/she shall be replaced by a person chosen by the Shareholders Meeting with the majority required by law, so as to ensure that the membership of the Board of Statutory Auditors complies with the law and the By-laws. In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of Statutory Auditors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the fewest number of votes, or, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced.

| 2.1 | The objectives to be
achieved by means of the attribution of plans |

tool of incentive and loyalty of the management most
critical for the company and aims to support the
achievement, in line with international best practices,
of the following objectives: |

| | further promote the
alignment with the shareholders' interests in the medium
to long term by the use of the Total Shareholder Return; |
| --- | --- |
| | a more sustainable value
creation over the medium to long term through the
introduction of the Net Present Value of proved
hydrocarbon reserves. |

For each annual assignment, the Plan provides for a three-year Vesting Period in line with the best practices in the industry at international level.

| 2.2 |
| --- |
| The incentive levels are
defined as a percentage of fixed remuneration, in
accordance with the following principles of the
remuneration policy adopted by Eni: |

| - | compensation package for
management suitably balanced between: i) a fixed
component consistent with the powers and/or
responsibilities assigned and ii) a variable component
defined within maximum limits serving to fix the
remuneration to the actual performance; |
| --- | --- |
| - | consistency of the total
remuneration with the market references applicable for
similar positions or roles with a similar level of
responsibility and complexity, in the context of company
panels that are comparable with Eni; |
| - | variable remuneration of the
executive roles that have a greater influence on business
performance levels characterised by a significant
percentage of long-term incentive components, through an
appropriate deferment over a period of at least three
years in line with the long-term nature of the business
activities of Eni; |

	The Plan will expire in
2019, at the end of the Vesting Period for the last
assignment of 2016.
4.4	The maximum number of
financial instruments, also in the form of options,
assigned for each tax year in relation to the entities
identified or the specified categories
	The Plan provides for the
payment of cash incentives and does not provide for the
allocation of financial instruments.
4.5	The methods and clauses
for the implementation of the plan, specifying if the
effective attribution of the instruments is subject to
conditions being met or given results being achieved,
including performance-related; a description of said
conditions and results
	The performance conditions
of the Plan are verified annually and at the end of each
three-year period as the result of a careful process of
verification of the results actually achieved by the
Compensation Committee, in support of the resolutions
passed on the matter by the Board of Directors.
	The performance conditions
of the Plan are linked to the following parameters:

| 1. | Total Shareholder Return
(TSR) of the Eni share, with a weight of 60%, measured on
an annual basis during the Vesting Period in terms of the
relative positioning versus the Peer Group. |
| --- | --- |
| 2. | Net Present Value of the
reserves (NPV), with a weight of 40%, measured on an
annual basis during the Vesting Period in terms of the
relative ranking of the annual percentage variation vs.

The TSR measures the total return of a share as the sum of the components:

| i) | capital gains: the ratio
between the change in the share price (difference between
the share price at the end and at the beginning of the
reference period); |
| --- | --- |
| ii) | reinvested dividends: the
ratio between dividends per share distributed during the
reference period and the share price at the beginning of
the reference period. Dividends are considered reinvested
in the security on the ex-dividend date. |

TSR is calculated annually in local currency, taking as the starting point of the analysis the last trading day of the year preceding the reference year, and as the end point of the analysis the last trading day of the reference year.

development costs and related taxes. It is stated in
accordance with the rules of the FASB Extractive
Activities - Oil and Gas (topic 932) allowing a
consistent benchmark of data reported by oil companies. |

elements of this indicator includes: |

| - | for proved reserves
(developed and undeveloped), the valuation at the average
price of the year, which remains unchanged in future
years unless contractual variations are already defined; |
| --- | --- |
| - | for production and
development costs, a valuation at constant terms (not
inflated); |

Period, the final multiplier for the payment is
determined as the average of the annual multipliers, to
be applied to the assigned incentive for the
determination of the incentive to be paid. This incentive
may be paid as a percentage between zero and 130%. There
is no payment in the event of failure to reach the 5 th rank for both indicators in at least one of the three
year period. |
| --- | --- |
| | The Plan provides for the
adoption of clawback mechanisms for the recovery of any
incentives that, as may be proven by the competent
departments within a period of three years from the
payment, are found to be not due. These mechanisms will
be used in cases involving persons who have been
responsible for wilfully altering the data used for the
achievement of the objectives or who have reached the
same objectives by displaying conduct that is contrary to
Company or legal regulations, without prejudice to any
other action permitted by law to protect the interests of
Eni. |
| 4.6 | The indication of any
restrictions of availability affecting the instruments
assigned or the instruments from the year of the options,
with specific reference to the terms within which
subsequent transfer to the company or third parties is
permitted or prohibited |

termination conditions in relation to the attribution of
plans in the event that the addressees should carry out
hedging operations that enable the neutralisation of any
prohibitions of the sale of the financial instruments
assigned, also in the form of options, or financial
instruments arising from the exercise of these options |
| | Not applicable. |
