7. Appointment of the Directors and the Statutory Auditors
Pursuant to Articles 147-ter and 148 of the T.U.F. and Articles 17.3 and 28.2 of the By-laws, the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors are appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting on the basis of slates presented by the Shareholders. Only those Shareholders who, severally or jointly, represent at least 0.5% of the share capital are entitled to submit a slate. 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. The related statement provided by the authorized intermediary may be submitted to the Company, with the same procedures indicated below, after the filing provided that it is sent by 6:00 p.m. (CET) on April 15, 2026.
The slates must be filed at the Company's registered office in compliance with applicable regulations by April 13, 2026, together with the additional documentation required by applicable law and regulations. The deadline for the filing of the slates would be on Saturday April 11, but it is extended to Monday April 13, 2026, which is the first following working day, in order to facilitate Shareholders in the presentation of slates.
Slates may be filed by certified e-mail at the address [email protected].
For further information, please contact the Corporate Secretary's Office at the certified e-mail address [email protected] and at the e-mail address [email protected].
With regard to the appointment of the Statutory Auditors, if as of the deadline noted above (April 13, 2026) only one slate, or only slates presented by Shareholders who are affiliated pursuant to Article 144-quinquies of the Consob Issuers Regulation, have been deposited, the deadline for presenting slates pursuant to Article 144-sexies, paragraph 5, of the Consob Issuers Regulation shall be postponed until the third day following the statutory deadline of April 11, 2026 (of April 14, 2026). In such case, the threshold established for the presentation of slates is reduced by half (i.e. 0.25% of the share capital).
For the submission, filing and publication of slates, please refer to the provisions of Articles 17 and 28 of the By-laws, the Company's website and the Report of the Board of Directors on the items on the agenda of the Shareholders' Meeting, which will be available on the aforementioned website as provided by law.
Articles 17.3 and 28.2 of the By-laws - contain specific provisions on the composition of the slates. In particular, with regard to the appointment of the Board of Directors, Article 17.3 of the By-laws provides that at least two-fifths of the Board shall be made up of Directors of the less represented gender, rounding up to the next whole number, except in the case where the number of members
of the Board is equal to three, in which case the number of positions shall be rounded down to the next whole number, as indicated by Consob. Slates with a number of candidates for Director equal to or greater than three must include candidates of different genders. Slates seeking to participate in the appointment of the majority of the members of the Board, made up of more than three candidates, must reserve two-fifths of the positions to the less represented gender, rounding up to the next whole number.
If the number of members of the Board is nine, in accordance with the proposal of the Board to the Shareholders' Meeting, the number of members belonging to the less represented gender must be equal to four.
Accordingly, Shareholders who intend to present a slate seeking to participate in the appointment of the majority of the members of the Board shall include three candidates of different gender from that of the other candidates if there are six candidates on the slate, and two candidates of the less represented gender if there are five candidates on the slate. If the Shareholders' Meeting decides that the number of members of the Board shall be fewer than nine, the Directors to be elected shall be drawn from the slates in the progressive order in which they are listed.
With regard to the appointment of the Board of Statutory Auditors, Article 28.2 of the By-laws establishes that two of the positions of standing Statutory Auditor shall be reserved for the less represented gender. Shareholders that intend to submit a slate containing three or more candidates for the positions of standing and alternate Statutory Auditor shall include candidates of different gender in the section for standing Statutory Auditors. If two candidates are indicated in the section for alternate Statutory Auditors, they must be of different genders.
The Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors have expressed their advice on the composition of the new Board of Directors and Board of Auditors to the Shareholders, which has been made public and will be attached to the report of the Board of Directors on the items on the agenda of the Shareholder's Meeting. The Corporate Governance Code, which the Company adopts, recommends requiring those presenting a list for the appointment of the Board of Directors that contains a number of candidates greater than half of the members to be elected, to provide adequate information, in the documentation presented for the filing of the slate, regarding the compliance of the list with the orientation (published in a specific section of the Company's website dedicated to the Shareholders' Meeting) expressed by the Board of Directors, also with reference to the diversity criteria established by principle VII and by the recommendation 8 of the Corporate Governance Code, and to indicate their candidate for the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
