In accordance with Article 83-sexies of Legislative Decree No. 58/1998 (the "CFA") those who have sent to the company the relative communication through an authorized intermediary based on the accounting records on the 7th (seventh) trading day before the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e. April 17, 2025 (record date), have the right to attend and vote at the Shareholders' Meeting - exclusively through the representative designated by the Company.

Attendance at the Shareholders' Meeting shall be permitted to the designated representative (referred to below) and the other entitled parties, other than those who are entitled to vote (who must grant proxy to the designated representative), exclusively by electronic means of communication that allow for their immediate identification and participation, with the connection arrangements to be communicated by the Company.

The Company has designated Mr. Alessandro Franzini as the designated shareholder representative pursuant to Article 135-undecies, CFA (the "Designated Representative").

Shareholders wishing to attend the Shareholders' Meeting must therefore send the Designated Representative, free of charge (with the exception of any mailing or delivery costs), in compliance with the provisions of Article 135-undecies of the CFA, the proxy containing voting instructions on all or some of the motions on the Agenda. The proxy must be accompanied by an identity document and, in the case of a principal who is a legal person, a document proving the powers to issue the proxy, using the specific proxy form prepared by the Designated Representative itself in agreement with the Company, which is available on the Company's website at www.franchetti.tech, in the Governance/Shareholders' Meetings section.

The proxy must be delivered using the aforementioned form, in compliance with the instructions for completion and delivery contained therein, by the end of the second trading day before the date of the Shareholders' Meeting (i.e. April 28, 2025 in first call and May 12, 2025 in second call) and will be effective solely for those motions for which voting instructions have been provided. Proxies and voting instructions are revocable in accordance with the same terms above.

The shares in relation to which proxy is conferred, also partially, are included for determining the proper constitution of the Shareholders' Meeting. In relation to the proposals for which no voting instructions have been conferred, the shares are not included for the calculation of the necessary majority and of the share capital percentage required to approve the motions.

The Designated Representative may also be granted proxies and/or sub-proxies pursuant to Article 135-novies of the CFA, as an exception to Article 135-undecies, paragraph 4 of the CFA. Such (sub)proxies, along with corresponding written voting instructions, must be received by the Designated Representative at the certified e-mail address [email protected] by 12 noon on the day before the date set for the Shareholders' Meeting (i.e. April 29, 2025 in first call and May 13, 2025 in second call). Proxies may be granted using the specific form available on the Company's website at www.franchetti.tech, in the section Governance/Shareholders' Meetings, in the manner and by the deadline indicated on the form. Proxies and voting instructions may be revoked in accordance with the same manner and deadlines that govern their delivery.

Granting proxies under Articles 135-novies and 135-undecies of the CFA shall not entail any expenses for the Shareholder, with the exception of any mailing or delivery costs.

From the date this call notice is published, the Designated Representative will be available

for information and clarifications by telephone (+39 02/433371) and by e-mail at [email protected]. Voting may not take place through correspondence or electronic means.

This shareholding shall be demonstrated by filing appropriate certification. Shareholders may not present more than one slate, nor may they vote for more than one slate, including through nominees or trust companies.
