The Offer is not conditional on the receipt of a minimum quantity of acceptances.
The Offering Party shall give notice of the fulfilment or non-fulfilment of the Offer Conditions and of any decision to waive them, by 7:29 a.m. on the second stock market Trading Day following the end of the Acceptance Period, by means of a communication, pursuant to article 36 of the Issuer Regulation, as well as in the notice relating to the final results of the Offer pursuant to Section F.3 below of the Offer Document.
In the event of non-fulfilment of any of the Conditions of the Offer and failure by the Offering Party to exercise the right to waive them, with the resulting ineffectiveness of the Offer, the Shares for which the Offer was accepted will be returned to their respective holders, without any expenses or fees charged to them, by the first stock market Trading Day following the first announcement whereby the Offer is declared null and void.

The Shares that OJM offers to acquire by means of this Offer are Ordinary shares of OJM, and therefore such acquisitions are subject to legislative and regulatory provisions on the acquisition of treasury shares.
In particular, pursuant to Article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code, "the company may only purchase treasury shares within the limits of the distributable profits and available reserves reported in the last duly approved financial statements. Only fully paid-up shares can be purchased. The acquisition must be authorised by the shareholders' meeting, which establishes its procedures, indicating the maximum number of shares to be acquired, the duration, not to exceed eighteen months, for which the authorisation is granted, the minimum consideration and the maximum consideration. (...) Shares purchased in violation of the previous sections must be transferred according to methods to be determined by the shareholders' meeting, within one year of their purchase. Otherwise, it must proceed without delay with their cancellation and the corresponding share capital reduction (...)".
On the basis of the foregoing, the acquisition of the Shares Subject to this Offer was authorised by the Shareholders' Meeting of OJM on 21 April 2023. In particular, the above-mentioned Shareholders' Meeting approved the procedures, the maximum number of Shares to be acquired (Equal to 20% of the share capital pro tempore of the Company, with regard to the Treasury Shares held over time both directly and indirectly by subsidiaries, if any) and the purchase price range, or the price that will be identified on a case-by-case basis considering the procedures chosen for carrying out the transaction and in compliance with any relevant legal and regulatory requirements in force, both national and EU, as well as the permitted market practices pro tempore in force if the conditions are met and it is decided to make use of them, it being understood that, the purchase price per share may not deviate, either downward or upward, by more than 20% from the official stock market price on the stock exchange session preceding each individual transaction or on the stock exchange session preceding the date of the announcement of the transaction.
In compliance with the resolutions of the Shareholders' Meeting, on 29 June 2023 the Board of Directors approved the Offer, according to the terms set forth in this Offer Document and therefore: (i) the maximum number of Shares Subject to this Offer equal to 1,500,000, (ii) the unit Consideration per Share equal to EUR 9.00 (therefore within the price range identified by the Shareholders' Meeting), (iii) the duration of the Acceptance Period agreed upon with Borsa Italiana of 24 Trading Days, unless extended, and (iv) in the case of full Acceptance of the Offer, the Maximum Outlay of EUR 13,500,000 (below the available reserves set forth in the most recently duly approved financial statements).
As this is a partial voluntary offer, in the case of Acceptances of the Offer for quantities of Shares exceeding the up to 1,500,000 Shares Subject to the Offer, the Shares for which the Offer is accepted shall be allocated according to the "pro-rata" method, by means of which the Issuer will acquire the same percentage (calculated by applying the Allocation Ratio) of Shares from all Participants for which they have accepted the Offer.

It should be noted that, starting from the Announcement Date (inclusive) and by the last day of the Acceptance Period as possibly extended (inclusive), the Issuer does not intend to purchase, directly and/or indirectly, Shares outside the Offer.
Should an Allocation be applied, the Issuer will withdraw without distinction from each Participant a number of Shares equal to the product between the number of Shares for which the Offer has been accepted and the Allocation Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares.
If the Shares for which the Offer has been accepted from an individual Participant are identified by different identification codes, the Offering Party will withdraw the Shares from each Participant according to the mechanisms described in Section L of the Offer Document, which should be referred to for further information.
By 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the Acceptance Period, i.e. 8 September 2023 and in any case by 7:29 a.m. on the first Trading Day following the end of the Offer Acceptance Period, unless extended, the provisional results of the Offer will be announced to the market and any applicable Allocation Ratio will be calculated.
By 7:29 a.m. of 14 September 2023 (Trading Day prior to the Payment Date), unless the Acceptance Period is extended, the final results of the Offer will be announced and the Allocation Ratio applied will be confirmed.
The excess Shares following the Allocation will be once again made available to the Participants through the Custodian Intermediaries within the first Trading Day subsequent to the Notice of Final Results. The application of any Allocation will not allow the Participants to revoke their Acceptance. If, at the end of the Acceptance Period, the Offer has been accepted for fewer Shares than the Shares Subject to the Offer, OJM will purchase all Shares for which the Offer was accepted with no need to apply the Allocation procedure.
As a result of the Allocation, Participants will be paid the Consideration only on the Shares actually withdrawn. Therefore, the premium implicitly recognised to Participants will be equal to the Allocation Ratio multiplied by the premium offered.
If all the Offer is accepted for all Shares currently outstanding, net of the Treasury Shares held by OJM at the Offer Document Date equal to 342,759 and the shares held by the shareholders Omniafin S.p.A. ("Omniafin") and M.T.I. Investimenti S.r.l. ("MTI") for a total of 3,155,186, as set forth in Section A.14, for which Omniafin and MTI have declared their own intention not to accept the Offer, the Allocation Ratio would be 15.20%. As a result, in this case, the premium recognised to the Participants with respect to the official market price on 29 June 2023 would be reduced to [0.09]% (see Case 3 in the table below).
The table below shows, merely by way of example, a numerical simulation of the Allocation procedure and any implied premium on the official Stock Exchange listing price on the date of 29 June 2023 (or the last Trading Day prior to the promotion of the Offer) recognised to the Participants.

Recent significant extraordinary transactions are described below.
In May 2021, Openjobmetis S.p.A. completed the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Quanta S.p.A., and, indirectly, of 100% of the subsidiary Quanta Risorse Umane S.p.A., a transaction already announced in January of the same year. The statutory, accounting and tax effects of the merger of Quanta S.p.A. into OJM took effect - pursuant to article 2504-bis, paragraph 2, of the Italian Civil Code as of 1 January 2022.
On 11 November 2022, the Board of Directors resolved, subject to the closure of the buyback programme resolved on 19 April 2022, to approve a new one to be implemented - in compliance with the resolutions of the Shareholders' Meeting and in compliance with the principle of equal treatment of Shareholders envisaged by art. 132 of the TUF - through a voluntary and partial public tender offer, pursuant to art. 144-bis, paragraph 1, lett. a) of the Issuer Regulation on Treasury Shares, for a maximum of 325,065 ordinary shares admitted to trading on Euronext STAR Milan, at a price of EUR 8.80 per share and for a maximum value of EUR 2,860,572.00. The takeover bid subscription period had a duration of 15 Trading Days, i.e. from 8:30 a.m. on 14 November 2022 to 5:30 p.m. on 2 December 2022. For further information, please refer to Section E.5 of this Offer Document.
On 21 April 2023, the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting ordered the cancellation of 342,800 Treasury Shares with no nominal amount already in the portfolio and equal to 2.5% of the share capital.
With respect to the economic, equity and financial situation, please note that the temporary work employment industry is highly competitive and some of the competitors are large multinationals that are able to adapt quickly to market changes and to offer services at competitive prices, thanks to their financial strength, the marketing tools they can deploy and the economies of scale they can take advantage of. In addition, the Italian temporary work market, net of what is explained above, is characterised by a high degree of fragmentation, including over 100 active employment agencies. Therefore, it cannot be excluded that the current structure of OJM will prove inadequate in this competitive environment, and that in order to maintain its competitiveness it may have to take certain initiatives that other market players have resorted to, and consequently may incur out-ofbudget costs, with possible impacts on the Group's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. It should be noted that, in general terms, it is possible that in the future changes to the sector's reference regulatory framework may be introduced that could impose updates and/or changes to the IT systems, the costs of which cannot currently be predicted.
For further information on the critical issues relating to the economic, equity and financial situation of the Offering Party/Issuer, as well as operating performance characterised by discontinuity with respect to the past, please refer to the Directors' Report on Operations contained in the 2022 Annual Financial Report, and in particular the sections "Risks related to operations", "Analysis of Operating Performance of the Openjobmetis Group for the year 2022" and "Outlook", available to the public at the registered office and on the Issuer's website, www.openjobmetis.it, in the Investor Relations/Financial Report section.

On 28 June 2023, the Company took out a loan from Banco BPM S.p.A. for a total of EUR 35 million, broken down into an amortising credit line of up to EUR 30 million and a revolving line of up to EUR 5 million, which may be used for the purposes described in Section G.1, including the finalisation of buyback transactions, including by means of partial voluntary public tender offers.
The loan provides for a final repayment date of 30 September 2029 and deferred interest calculated on the basis of the reference Euribor plus a variable margin in relation to the performance of the NFI/EBITDA ratio at the end of the year of between 140 and 170 bps, in accordance with the margin ratchet specified below. NFI means the adjusted NFP pursuant to the loan agreement signed on 28 June 2023 of the payables relating to multi-year contracts for the use of assets (office lease and longterm car rental) calculated in accordance with IFRS 16.
| NFI/EBITDA | BPPA margin | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| X ≥ | 1.50x | 170 | |
| 1.00x | > X > | 1.50x | 155 |
| X ≤ | 1.00x | 140 |
The loan also includes a financial covenant (NFI/EBITDA <2.25, the "leverage ratio"), with the possibility of an exception only once during the life of the loan in the event of acquisitions, of 2.75.
| Calculation Date | LR lower than |
|---|---|
| 31 December 2023 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2024 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2025 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2026 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2027 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2028 | 2.25 |
It should be noted that the NFP set forth in the financial statements as at 31 December 2022 is negative and equal to EUR 26.2 million. Pursuant to the loan agreement in place as at 31 December 2022, as well as the loan agreement entered into on 28 June 2023, payables relating to multi-year contracts for the use of assets calculated according to IFRS 16, which as at 31 December 2022 amounted to EUR 13.9 million, do not need to be counted. As a result, the net financial indebtedness (NFI) pursuant to the contract amounts to EUR 12.4 million. Since in the new loan the amount of EUR 6 million merely replaces the remaining amount outstanding of EUR 5.8 million (for more information, see Sections B.1.8 and G.1), it follows that the net financial indebtedness increased by the new payable items which may be disbursed under the new contract would theoretically amount to EUR 41.6 million.
Even in the absence of a positive contribution in terms of EBITDA of the acquired companies, the

NFI/EBITDA ratio would be approximately 1.4 and therefore lower than the cap of 2.25. For further information, please refer to Section G.1 below of this Offer Document.
In consideration of the fact that the Offering Party and the Issuer are the same, the significant shareholders and the members of the management and control bodies of the Offering Party coincide with the significant shareholders and members of the management and control bodies of the Issuer and are therefore necessarily related parties.
For information on relations with related parties of the Offering Party and Issuer, please refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year 2022, attached to the 2022 financial statements, and in particular pages 110-111, available to the public at the registered office and on the website of the Issuer, www.openjobmetis.it, Investor Relations/Financial Report section.
As at the Offer Document Date, no significant transactions were concluded with related parties during the current year.
OJM has managed to adapt to a continuously evolving job market on the strength of its efficient and flexible business model that combines the competitiveness of large multinationals, operating in the same sector, with a streamlined decision-making process characteristic of smaller companies.
The Company's mission is to support business development by evaluating possible growth opportunities consistent with its mission, while continuing to be a leader in the field of human resources, aiming to be a partner of companies interested in the services offered and a reference point for the workers interested in entering, re-entering or repositioning themselves in the labour market.
In addition to its temporary employment services, the Group is aiming to strengthen other services such as recruitment and selection, outplacement and training of personnel - which make it possible to increase, on the one hand, margins and, on the other, the quality of its offerings to potential and established customers.
As at the Offer Document Date, the Offering Party has not taken any decision with regard to any new extraordinary transactions, while maintaining a particular focus on the opportunities that the market may offer, with the aim of dynamically continuing along the path of growth undertaken until this time.
Over the years, the Issuer has pursued a strategy also focused on the acquisition of Italian employment agencies and/or specialised HR companies, which will possibly also be pursued in the future in line with the same guidelines as in the past. These transactions normally allow for the generation of cost and/or revenue synergies, the integration of new specialised skills that may enable the development of new specialised divisions and the integration of commercial relationships with new customers as well as the penetration in new geographical areas.

The Offer consists of a partial voluntary public tender offer promoted pursuant to articles 102 et seq. of the TUF by the Company and is not aimed at, nor may it lead to, the Offering Party exceeding the threshold of 90% of the share capital of the Issuer or the delisting of the Shares from Euronext STAR Milan (delisting).
In the event of full acceptance of the Offer and taking account of the shares already in the Issuer's portfolio at the date of this Offer Document, OJM will actually end up holding a total of 1,842,759 Treasury Shares, corresponding to 13.78% of the Issuer's share capital.
Therefore, in consideration of the nature of the Offer, the prerequisites for the Purchase Obligation pursuant to article 108, paragraph 2, of the TUF are not met.
The Offer consists of a partial voluntary public tender offer promoted in accordance with articles 102 et seq. of the TUF by the Company and is not aimed at, nor may it result in, the delisting of the Shares from the Euronext STAR Milan (delisting).
Therefore, in consideration of the nature of the Offer, no prerequisites are met for the Right to Purchase pursuant to article 111 of the TUF, or for the Obligation to Purchase pursuant to article 108, paragraph 1, of the TUF.
Equita SIM S.p.A. acts as Intermediary in charge of Collection in connection with the Offer and will receive fees in relation to the services provided. Equita SIM S.p.A. is also acting as specialised operator for the Issuer's shares on the Euronext STAR Milan market. In addition, please note that Equita SIM S.p.A. acted as intermediary responsible for the execution of the Treasury Share purchase programme initiated on 19 April 2022 on the basis of the authorisation of the Shareholders' Meeting approved on the same date and that, at the Offer Document Date, in the course of the normal exercise of its activities, it: (i) may have provided or could provide in the future services in favour of the Offering Party, its shareholders and/or their parent companies, subsidiaries or associates; (ii) at any moment could hold short or long positions and, if permitted by applicable regulations, negotiate or otherwise carry out transactions, on its own behalf or on behalf of customers, in capital or debt instruments loans or other financial instruments (including derivatives) of the Offering Party, its shareholders or their parent companies, subsidiaries or associates.
Lastly, it should be noted that Banco BPM S.p.A., which acts as guarantor bank for the precise fulfilment of the obligations of the Offering Party to pay the Consideration (i) granted the Banco BPM Loan to the Offering Party (as defined below), (ii) provides/has provided corporate finance services

in the last 12 months in favour of the Offering Party and its Group and may provide the same services in the future, as well as additional services, to the Offering Party or its Group.
The Offer is intended for current OJM Shareholders and concerns up to 1,500,000 Shares, equal to 11.22% of the Issuer's entire share capital.
The possible scenarios for the current OJM Shareholders in the case of Acceptance or non-Acceptance of the Offer are illustrated below.
In the case of Acceptance of the Offer and the fulfilment of the Conditions of the Offer set forth in Section A.1 (or the waiver of them by the Offering Party), the Shareholders will receive consideration of EUR 9.00 for each Share for which the Offer is accepted, without prejudice to any Allocation, which will take place if the Offer receives Acceptances to an extent exceeding the number of Shares Subject to the Offer.
By accepting the Offer, the OJM Shareholder:
The OJM Shareholders may accept the Offer with their respective Shares during the Acceptance Period.
The Shares for which the Offer is accepted shall remain restricted in connection with the Offer and, therefore, from the Acceptance date until the Payment Date, those who have accepted the Offer may exercise the property and administrative rights relating to the Shares for which the Offer has been accepted, but may not entirely or partially transfer, or in any case carry out other disposals, regarding such Shares (without prejudice to the right to revoke Offer acceptances in cases of competing offers or higher offers pursuant to article 44, paragraph 7 of the Issuer Regulation).
It should be recalled that acceptance of the Offer alone does not entail, in itself, the elimination of the increased vote or the prerequisites for accrual of the increased vote. Therefore, on the assumption of the return of Shares in the event of Allocation, the Participant will have the right to have Shares returned that have the same rights and/or powers (such as, for example, the pending request for registration in the special list held by OJM in order to obtain the increased vote, the pending accrual of the increased vote, as well as the increased vote) that they would have had in the event of non-acceptance of the Offer.

The Offer consists of a partial voluntary public tender offer proposed in accordance with articles 102 et seq. of the TUF and is not aimed at, nor may it result in, the delisting of the Shares from the Euronext STAR Milan (delisting).
Therefore, if the Offer is not accepted, OJM Shareholders will remain shareholders of the Issuer and the relative Shares will continue to be traded on the Euronext STAR Milan.
In accordance with the provisions of article 101-bis, paragraph 3, letter d) of the TUF, the following do not apply with regard to the Offer: the provisions of articles 102, paragraphs 2 and 5 (Obligations of bidders and disqualification powers), 103, paragraph 3-bis (Execution of the offer), 104 (Defence), 104-bis (Neutralisation rule) and 104-ter (Reciprocity clause) of the TUF and any other provision of the TUF that places responsibility on the Offering Party or the Issuer to meet specific disclosure obligations to employees or their representatives.
The following table shows the equity investments held by the shareholders Omniafin and MTI on the basis of the results in the shareholders' register, as also supplemented by the communications pursuant to art. 120 of the TUF of the same shareholders and other information available to the Company as well as on the basis of the composition of the Company's share capital and voting rights updated as at 4 May 2023, without taking into account possible changes in the number of total voting rights deriving from the transaction subject to the Praude Communication 120, described extensively in Section B.1.3.
| Shareholder | no. Shares | % share capital | No. of voting rights | % voting rights as at 4 May 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Omniafin S.p.A. | 2,466,789 | 18.45% | 4,909,405 | 25.96% |
| M.T.I. Investimenti S.r.l. | 688,397 | 5.15% | 1,364,294 | 7.21% |
| Total | 3,155,186 | 23.60% | 6,273,699 | 33.17% |
The shareholders Omniafin S.p.A. and MTI Investimenti S.r.l. have each declared their intention not to accept the Offer.
As a result of the Offer, both Omniafin individually, as well as along with any people acting in concert

with Omniafin, and Omniafin and MTI jointly as parties acting in concert pursuant to the joint provisions of article 109, paragraph 1, and article 101-bis, paragraph 4-bis of the TUF (as parties to the Shareholders' Agreement, as defined below) as well as along with any people acting in concert with them, may be subject to the obligation to promote, respectively, a full public tender offer pursuant to article 106, paragraph 1, of the TUF as a result of exceeding the threshold of 30% of voting rights, and/or a public tender offer from consolidation pursuant to articles 106, paragraph 3, lett. b) of the TUF and 46 of the Issuer Regulation.
In this regard, Omniafin and MTI have hereby and if necessary communicated, through their legal representatives during the meeting of the Board of Directors on 29 June 2023, their commitment to waive as soon as possible after the press release concerning: (i) the final results of the Offer and (ii) the possible application of the allocation with confirmation of the Allocation Ratio applied, the increased voting right with respect to a number of Shares such so as to ensure that the obligation to promote a takeover bid does not emerge either individually, as regards Omniafin and any parties acting in concert with it, or jointly, as regards Omniafin and MTI and any parties acting in concert with them (also possibly pursuant to article 106, paragraph 5, letter d) of the TUF and art. 49, paragraph 1, lett. e), of the Issuer Regulation).
The waiver of the increased voting right to avoid the occurrence of the obligation will be carried out by Omniafin and by MTI in proportion to the Shares held by each.
Considering that the Offer is promoted by OJM and that, therefore, the Offering Party and the Issuer are the same, the notice by the Issuer with the content pursuant to art. 103, paragraph 3 of the TUF and art. 39 of the Issuer Regulation containing all data that may be necessary to understand the Offer and for the Issuer to evaluate the Offer has not been prepared.
At the Offer Document Date, the macroeconomic scenario is severely impacted by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and by the sanctions and restrictive measures, both commercial and financial in nature, applied, inter alia, by various European Union countries against the Russian economy and the ensuing repercussions on the national and international economic context. Furthermore, the international geopolitical situation is also characterised by profound uncertainty regarding the possible evolution of political-military tensions between China and the USA, connected to the crisis between China and Taiwan. The Offering Party does not believe that the reasons for the Offer are jeopardised by the current geopolitical context. However, in light of the uncertainties regarding the evolution of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the possible intensification of the above-mentioned sanctions and restrictive measures and, as regards relations between China and the USA, a possible escalation of political-military tensions, and the possible financial crisis and/or economic recession that could ensue, at the Offer Document Date it is not possible to predict whether the occurrence of the above-mentioned events will have repercussions: (i) on the Offer; and/or (ii) on the conditions of the assets and/or the equity, economic and/or financial conditions of OJM and/or the relative Group with respect to those set forth in the consolidated interim financial report as at 30 June 2023 that the Company's Board of Directors approves on 4 August 2023. In this regard, attention

is drawn to the fact that the effectiveness of the Offer is subject, inter alia, to the MAC Condition (for more information on the MAC Condition, please refer to Section A.1 of the Offer Document).
At the Offer Document Date, the national and international macroeconomic context is still affected by the health emergency linked to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, uncertainties remain regarding the possible evolution and effects of this pandemic, the possible adoption of measures by the authorities in the event of a worsening of the epidemiological situation and the economic recession that could ensue. With regard to the OJM business, at present there are no changes in future plans, as described in Section G.2, which should be referred to for the details, or significant impacts in relation to the management of the Company or the business of OJM and the relative Group depending on the above-mentioned pandemic. Without prejudice to the foregoing, in light of the uncertainties regarding the evolution and effects of the pandemic, the possible adoption of measures by the national authorities regarding the prevention of infection and the possible financial crisis and/or economic recession that could ensue, at the Date of the Offer Document, it is not possible to predict whether it may have substantial negative effects: (i) on the Offer; and/or (ii) on the conditions of the assets and/or the equity, economic and/or financial conditions of OJM and/or the relative Group, with respect to those set forth in the consolidated interim financial report as at 30 June 2023 that the Company's Board of Directors approves on 4 August 2023. In this regard, attention is drawn to the fact that the effectiveness of the Offer is subject, inter alia, to the MAC Condition (for more information on the MAC Condition, please refer to Section A.1 of the Offer Document).

OJM is a company operating in compliance with Italian law. Its place of jurisdiction is Milan.
At the Offer Document Date, the fully subscribed and paid-up share capital of the Issuer is equal to EUR 13,712,000.00, divided into 13,369,200 ordinary shares with no nominal value. There are no other categories of Shares, nor bonds convertible into Shares.
Each Share gives the right to one vote, without prejudice to the possibility to obtain the increased voting right pursuant to article 7 of the Articles of Association in force.
The breakdown of the Company's share capital and voting rights as at the date of 4 May 2023 is provided below.

(1) The total number of voting rights, as reported in the last communication issued by the Company pursuant to article 85-bis, paragraph 4-bis, of the Issuer Regulation of 4 May 2023, is equal to 18,911,707. The number of voting rights specified in the table is calculated by excluding all 342,759 Treasury Shares held by OJM whose voting rights are suspended from the total 18,911,707 voting rights relating to the total number of shares issued taking into account the increased vote. It should be noted that the Company's articles of Association provide for an increase in voting rights pursuant to article 127-quinquies of the TUF.
(2) The number of voting rights for the purpose of calculating the relevant share for mandatory takeover bids is calculated by excluding only the 37,792 Treasury Shares not intended for the Company's OJM employee and director share assignment plans currently in place from the total 18,911,707 voting rights relating to the total number of shares issued taking into account the increased vote, while the remaining 304,967 Treasury Shares were included pursuant to art. 44-bis, paragraph 4, lett. b) of the Issuer Regulation.
Please note that on 25 July 2023, the Company received a communication pursuant to art. 120 of the TUF from the shareholder Praude Asset Management LTD ("Praude"), whereby the shareholder notified the Company of the reduction of its equity investment below the relevant threshold of 15% of the total voting rights, communicating that it is the holder of a share equal to 11.97% of the total voting rights of the Company (the "Praude Communication 120"). At the approval date of Offer Document , taking into account that (i) Praude holds both ordinary shares and shares with increased voting rights of the Company by way of discretionary asset management, (ii) the Company has not yet received the required communications from the intermediary/ies of Praude pursuant to the regulation on increased voting rights highlighting the number and type of shares involved in the disposal transaction subject to the Praude Communication 120 and, therefore, (iii) on the basis of Praude Communication 120 alone, it is not possible to determine with certainty the number of shares with increased voting rights subject to disposal by Praude, the Company is not yet able to calculate the number of total voting rights as resulting from the outcome of the transaction subject to the Praude Communication 120. The Company will provide information relating to the change in its share capital and, in particular, the number of voting rights deriving from the transaction subject to the Praude Communication 120 in accordance with and within the terms set forth in article 85-bis, paragraph 4-bis, of the Issuer Regulation.

The Group's financial liabilities consist of payables due to Banco BPM S.p.A. of EUR 8.8 million, payables to other banks of EUR 16.9 million and payables for long-term contracts for the use of assets calculated according to IFRS 16 of EUR 13.9 million. Only the exposure to Banco BPM S.p.A. is subject to compliance with the NFI/EBITDA financial covenant.
This financial covenant, known as the leverage ratio, is the NFI/EBITDA ratio as defined in the loan agreement. It is measured on an annual basis as at 31 December, since it is based on the Group's consolidated financial statements. The lending bank has the right to request the termination of the loan agreement if, at the date of calculation, the restriction is not complied with.

The financial constraint that must be complied with at consolidated level is shown below:
| Calculation Dates | NFI/EBITDA < |
|---|---|
| 31 December 2022 | 2.25 |
| 31 December 2023 | 2.25 |
NFI = Net Financial Indebtedness
EBITDA = Consolidated net profit for the year before income taxes, net financial expense, amortisation/depreciation, provisions and impairment losses
It should be noted that as at 31 December 2022 the financial covenant had been complied with. The leverage ratio was 0.409 and therefore lower than the cap of 2.25.
For the purpose of calculating the NFI, the total financial liabilities of EUR 39,601 thousand must be reduced by the cash and cash equivalents of EUR 13,385 thousand and payables relating to long-term contracts for the use of assets calculated according to IFRS 16, equal to 13.8 million. As a result, the NFI value amounts to EUR 12.4 million.
Branch leases contain extension options that can be exercised up to six months before the end of the binding period. If, at their respective deadlines, all extension options should be exercised, the potential cash flows that are not currently reflected in the lease liability would amount to approximately EUR 18,600 thousand.

The relationships between Group companies and the Group with related parties, as identified on the basis of the criteria defined in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures, are mainly commercial in nature.
During 2022, the Group carried out transactions with some of the above-mentioned entities as shown below. The general conditions that regulate said transactions have been carried out on an arm's length basis.
During the meeting of 12 October 2015, the Board of Directors approved and subsequently updated, most recently on 29 June 2021, the related party transactions policy and procedure, in accordance with Article 2391-bis of the Italian Civil Code and with the "Related party transactions regulations" adopted by CONSOB with resolution no. 17221 of 12 March 2010 and subsequent amendments.
The total value of the transactions and residual balances is as follows:

The consolidated Net Financial Position of the Openjobmetis Group at the same date was equal to a negative balance of EUR 26,216 thousand.
The full acceptance of the Offer would have the following accounting effects:
Even in the event of full acceptance of the Offer, the Company and the Group would maintain a solid equity and financial position, compatible with the implementation of the current business plan.

In the first few months of 2023, the "Meloni Government" again highlighted the need for flexibility that characterises the current labour market, setting among its objectives the amendment of the "Dignity Decree" (i.e. Law Decree no. 87 of 12 July 2018, converted with amendments by Law no. 96 of 9 August 2018), which in 2018 had created an element of fracture with the Employment Agencies.
The "Labour Decree" (i.e. Law Decree no. 48 of 4 May 2023, converted with amendments by Law no. 85 of 3 July 2023) marks the opening of a new regulatory scenario. This Decree also substantially affected the configuration of the reasons for temporary contracts with a duration between 12 and 24 months, introducing three of them with greater accessibility, compared to the strict reasons of the Dignity Decree, or specific requirements established by collective agreements, technical, organisational and production-related requirements and replacement needs of other workers. Furthermore, the involvement of the Employment Agencies in the search for employment for the beneficiaries of the "Inclusion Allowance" represents a clear sign of the ferment that will characterise
the staffing market in the coming months.

The intermediary engaged by the Offering Party to coordinate the collection of Offer Acceptances, authorised to carry out its activities in Italy, through the signing and delivery of the Acceptance Form, is Equita SIM S.p.A., or the Intermediary In Charge of Collection. The Intermediary In Charge of Collection operates through all Custodian Intermediaries participating in the Euronext Securities Milan centralised securities clearing system.
Acceptance of the Offer must take place by (i) delivering the dedicated Acceptance Form, duly filled out in each part and signed, and (ii) simultaneously depositing the Shares at the Custodian Intermediaries.
The Acceptance Forms may be sent to the Intermediary In Charge of Collection through each Custodian Intermediary. Therefore, the Acceptances will be received by the Intermediary In Charge of Collection indirectly, through the Custodian Intermediaries, which will collect the Acceptance Forms of the Participant shareholders.
The Custodian Intermediaries will collect the Acceptance Forms, keep the Shares for which the Offer is accepted in deposit, check the regularity of the Shares and the compliance of the Acceptance Forms and make payment of the Consideration according to the procedures set forth below.
At the Payment Date, the Shares for which the Offer is accepted and for which no Allocation has been carried out will be transferred to a securities account in the name of the Offering Party.
The Offer Document as well as the documents specified in Section N below of the Offer Document have been made available to the public for consultation at the registered office of the Issuer and the Intermediary In Charge of Collection.

This Offer concerns the acquisition of OJM Shares intended, without distinction and under equal conditions, for all Shareholders at the date on which the relative Acceptance Form is signed.
The Offer concerns the acquisition of up to 1,500,000 Shares, traded on the Euronext STAR Milan, representative of 11.22% of the entire share capital of OJM. The Offer does not concern financial instruments other than Shares.
The Shares for which the Offer is accepted must be freely transferrable to the Offering Party and free of real, mandatory and personal constraints of any type or nature whatsoever.
Each Participant may also tender to the Offer any Shares held with Increased Voting Rights. For the sake of clarity, it should be recalled that acceptance of the Offer alone does not entail, in itself, the elimination of the increased vote or the prerequisites for accrual of the increased vote. For further information on the consequences of acceptance of the Offer by holders of Shares with Increased Voting Rights, please refer to Section A.12 above.
In the event of the acquisition of the maximum number of Shares Subject to the Offer and taking into account the Shares already in the portfolio of the Issuer at the Offer Document Date, OJM will hold 1,842,759 treasury shares, corresponding to 13.78% of the share capital. Therefore, at the end of the Offer (even in the case of full acceptance of the Offer), the limit set forth in art. 2357, paragraph 3, of the Italian Civil Code, which provides that the nominal value of the Treasury Shares purchased may not exceed one-fifth of the share capital, also taking into account, for this purpose, the shares held by the subsidiaries, will be respected.
At the Offer Document Date, the Issuer has not issued convertible bonds or other financial instruments.
The Offer does not concern financial instruments convertible into Shares or which attribute the right to subscribe Shares.
The Offer is not subject to obtaining any authorisation from the competent authorities.
For further information on the Conditions of the Offer, see Section A.1 of the Offer Document above.

At the Offer Document Date, OJM holds 342,759 Treasury Shares, equal to 2.56% of the entire share capital, which are not included in the Shares Subject to the Offer.
With reference to the above-mentioned Shares held by OJM, as Treasury Shares, the voting right is suspended.
The Offering Party does not hold additional financial instruments that provide the right to vote in the shareholders' meetings of the Issuer.
At the Offer Document Date, OJM has not entered into any repurchase or securities lending contracts, contracts establishing usufruct or pledge rights concerning the Treasury Shares, and has not made other commitments of any other nature with the Shares as the underlying asset (by way of example but not limited to option agreements, futures, swaps and forward contracts on such financial instruments), directly or through trust companies or third parties, or through subsidiaries.

The Consideration offered, which will be paid in full in cash at the Payment Date, is set at EUR 9.00 for each Share for which the Offer is accepted and is effectively withdrawn on the outcome of the same.
At present, no distribution of reserves or extraordinary dividends is planned between the Offer Document Date and the Payment Date.
The Consideration is net of stamp duty, registration tax and tax on Italian financial transactions, where due, and of the fees, commissions and expenses that will be borne by the Offering Party. On the contrary, any income tax, withholding tax or substitute tax, where due, on the capital gain realised, will be borne by the Participants in the Offer.
In the case of full Acceptance of the Offer, the Maximum Outlay will be equal to EUR 13,500,000.
The Offering Party did not rely on the opinions of independent experts or specific valuation documents.
The Consideration was determined, within the range established by the Shareholders' Meeting of OJM on 21 April 2023, following independent assessments by the Board of Directors, taking into consideration the analysis of the OJM stock market prices in the months prior to the announcement of the Offer. In assessing the terms and conditions of the Offer, the Company took into account the fact that, on the basis of available information, current market trends and the OJM 2023 Consolidated Interim Financial Report, it is reasonable to expect a recovery in performance in the second half of the year compared to the first half of the year and, overall, a trend for the whole of 2023 substantially aligned with the previous year.
The highest price paid by the Offering Party, in the 12 months prior to the Announcement Date, for the purchase of securities of the same class was equal to EUR 9.17, within the range set by the Shareholders' Meeting of OJM of 19 April 2022.
Specifically, the Consideration, equal to EUR 9.00 for each Share for which the Offer is accepted and effectively withdrawn on the outcome of the Offer, incorporates a premium of 0.59% with respect to the official Stock Exchange price of 29 June 2023 (i.e. the last Trading Day prior to the launch of the Offer - the "Reference Date" - equal to EUR 8.95, as well as (i) a premium of 2.05% with respect to the weighted average of the official prices of the Shares of the Issuer in the 12 months prior to 29 June 2023 and (ii) a discount of 0.89%, 6.92% and 3.38%, compared to the weighted average of the official prices of the Shares of the Issuer in the periods at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months, respectively, as described in more detail in the table below.
| REFERENCE PERIOD | WEIGHTED AVERAGE OFFICIAL PRICES (€) |
IMPLIED PREMIUM/DISCOUNT IN THE CONSIDERATION (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Price at Reference Date | 8.95 | 0.59% |
| Weighted average price - 1 month prior to Reference Date |
9.08 | (0.89%) |

| Weighted average price - 3 months prior to the Reference Date |
9.67 | (6.92%) |
|---|---|---|
| Weighted average price - 6 months prior to Reference Date |
9.32 | (3.38%) |
| Weighted average price - 12 months prior to Reference Date |
8.82 | 2.05% |
If the Allocation is applied, and if the number of Shares for which the Offer is accepted is higher than the Shares Subject to the Offer, the Consideration will be paid to the Participants only on the Shares effectively withdrawn.
Therefore, the premium implicitly recognised to Participants would be equal to the Allocation Ratio multiplied by the premium offered.
If all the Offer is accepted for all Shares currently outstanding, net of the Treasury Shares held by OJM at the Offer Document Date equal to 342,759 and the shares held by the shareholders Omniafin and MTI for a total of 3,155,186, as set forth in Section A.14, for which Omniafin and MTI have declared their own intention not to accept the Offer, the Allocation Ratio would be 15.20%. As a result, in this case, the premium recognised to the Participants with respect to the official Market price on 29 June 2023 would be reduced to 0.09%.
The Offer is proposed on up to 1,500,000 Shares, equal to 11.22% of the total 13,369,200 Shares outstanding.
The total equivalent value of the Offer, in the case of full Acceptance of the Offer, amounts to EUR 13,500,000.
The table below shows a comparison of the Consideration with several consolidated indicators of the Issuer, total and per Share, referring respectively to the financial statements as at 31 December 2022 and the financial statements as at 31 December 2021.
Please note that in the calculation of the data per Share, changes in the share capital and the number and value of the Shares were taken into consideration and, when appropriate, the adjustment formula adopted is also specified.

Assuming that there are no companies perfectly comparable to the Issuer, even at international level, these multipliers were compared with the average figures of EV/EBITDA, EV/EBIT, Price/Cash Flow, Price/Earnings and Price/Book Value for the financial years 2021 and 2022 relating to listed companies active in the temporary employment sector that have similar profiles to Openjobmetis. These companies were identified from amongst the following two groups of comparable companies: (a) companies operating globally and also present in the Italian market (Adecco Group, Randstad and Manpower Group) ("Global") and (b) companies operating mainly in selected European markets (Groupe Crit and Synergie Group) ("EU"). Below is a brief description of each:
• Adecco Group: founded in 1957 with registered office in Zurich (Switzerland), it is a company listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange with a market capitalisation of approximately EUR 5.7 billion as at 18 July 2023. The company is active in the sector of human resources placement and training. At 31 December 2022, the company had approximately 39,000 employees;

(1) The multipliers were calculated on the basis of the number of shares issued net of treasury shares at the last available date prior to the Offer Document Date and on the basis of the market price of the shares at 18 July 2023. In the case of the Issuer, the multipliers were calculated on the basis of the Consideration net of treasury shares at the Offer Document Date.
It should be noted that the Issuer's multipliers calculated on the basis of the Consideration per Share are placed at premium with respect to the average and median ones of the EU panel with reference to the EV/EBITDA and EV/EBIT multiples and at a discount with respect to the Price/Cash Flow, Price/Earnings and Price/Book Value multiples for both years considered. The Issuer's multipliers are

also at a discount with respect to the Global panel with reference to all multiples taken into consideration, albeit in a context of only partial comparability of the Issuer with the reference sample, as previously described, and in light of a greater market capitalisation and geographical diversification than those of the Issuer.
The following table shows the monthly weighted arithmetic mean of official prices recorded by the Shares in each of the 12 months preceding the Offer launch date.

On 14 November 2022, OJM promoted a partial voluntary public tender offer, concluded on 2 December 2022, on a maximum of 325,065 Treasury Shares, equal to 2.37% of the share capital, at a unit consideration per share for which the offer was accepted and withdrawn equal to EUR 8.80 (the "2022 Takeover bid on Treasury Shares"). This consideration incorporated a premium of 9.94 with respect to the official Stock Exchange price of 11 November 2022 - the last Trading Day before the launch of the offer - equal to EUR 0.80. The above-mentioned offer was accepted for a total of 3,568,654 Shares, equal to 26.03% of the entire share capital and 1,097.83% of the maximum number of Shares Subject to the Offer. As a result of the application of the allocation ratio, on the payment date, i.e. 9 December 2022, the Company purchased 325,024 Shares, equal to 2.37% of the entire share capital, for a total outlay of EUR 2,860,211.20.
In the current year, no financial transactions were carried out (such as mergers and spin-offs, public offers) which entailed a valuation of the OJM Shares by the Issuer, nor were there any transfers of significant packages of OJM Shares.
Without prejudice to that set forth in Section E.5 above, in the last 12 months, meaning the 12 months prior to the Announcement Date, the Issuer carried out transactions for the purchase of 353,906 Treasury Shares at a weighted average price of EUR 8.74.
At the Offer Document Date, also following the cancellation of 342,800 Treasury Shares with no nominal value, as approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 21 April 2023, the Issuer holds 342,759 Treasury Shares.

F. PROCEDURES AND TERMS FOR ACCEPTANCE OF THE OFFER, DATES AND PROCEDURE FOR PAYMENT OF THE CONSIDERATION AND RETURN OF THE SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THE OFFER
The Offer Acceptance Period agreed upon with Borsa Italiana pursuant to article 40 of the Issuer Regulation will begin at 8:30 a.m. on 7 August 2023 will end at 5:30 p.m. on 8 September 2023 (inclusive), unless the Offer is extended, which OJM shall announce pursuant to provisions of law and regulations in force.
Therefore, unless there are extensions of the Acceptance Period, 8 September 2023 is the closing date of the Acceptance Period.
Acceptance of the Offer may take place on any Trading Day included in the Acceptance Period between 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.
The Offering Party reserves the right to extend and/or modify the terms of the Offer, announcing this by publishing dedicated press releases, which will be made available to the public on the website of OJM, www.openjobmetis.it Investor Relations section.
Acceptance of the Offer must take place by (i) delivering the dedicated Acceptance Form, duly filled out in each part and signed, and (ii) simultaneously depositing the Shares for which the Offer is accepted in a restricted account at the Intermediary In Charge of Collection or the Custodian Intermediaries.
In consideration of the securities dematerialisation procedure, for the purposes of this Section, the Share deposit shall be considered carried out if the Shareholder provides suitable instructions on transferring such Shares to the Offering Party to the Custodian Intermediaries at which the Shares it holds are deposited. Therefore, in consideration of the above-mentioned security dematerialisation procedure, the signing of the Acceptance Form shall be valid as an irrevocable instruction granted by the individual Participant to the relative Custodian Intermediary at which the Shares are deposited in the securities account, to transfer such Shares to restricted accounts at the above-mentioned Intermediary In Charge of Collection.
The Shareholders that have Shares available and intend to accept the Offer may deliver the Acceptance Form and deposit the Shares indicated therein at the Custodian Intermediaries on the condition that the delivery and deposit are executed in due time to allow for the Custodian Intermediaries to deposit the Shares at the Intermediary In Charge of Collection by no later than the last day of the Acceptance Period.
The Custodian Intermediaries, as agents, must counter-sign the Acceptance Forms. The risk that the Custodian Intermediaries may not deliver the relative Acceptance Forms by the last valid day of the Acceptance Period and not deposit the relative Shares at the Intermediary In Charge of Collection by no later than the last day of the Acceptance Period shall be borne exclusively by the Offer Participants.

When the Offer is accepted and the Shares are deposited by signing the Acceptance Form, a mandate shall be granted to the Custodian Intermediary to carry out all formalities necessary in preparation for the transfer of the Shares to OJM, which shall bear the relative cost.
Furthermore, in order for the Offer to be accepted, the relative Shares must be free of real, mandatory and personal constraints and encumbrances of any type or nature whatsoever as well as freely transferrable to OJM. Furthermore, the Offer may be accepted for Shares generated by purchases carried out in the market only after the transactions have been settled within the clearing system.
The Offer may be accepted for Shares identified by the following identification codes: (i) ISIN IT0003683528 (i.e. Shares other than the Shares for which registration in the special list held by OJM is required in order to obtain increased voting rights, the Shares registered on the list held by OJM and pending accrual of increased voting rights, as well as the Shares with Increased Voting Right, (ii) ISIN XXITV0000313 (i.e. Shares for which registration in the special list held by OJM is required in order to obtain increased voting rights) (iii) ISIN XXITV0000321 (i.e. Shares registered in the special list held by OJM and pending accrual of increased voting rights) and (iv) ISIN IT0005155269 (i.e. Shares with Increased Voting Right). Any Shareholder intending to simultaneously accept the Offer for Shares held identified by different identification codes will be required to specify in the Acceptance Form, for each type of Shares identified by the identification codes referred to above, the quantity that it intends to contribute to the Offer.
If Acceptances of minors or people entrusted to guardians or trustees are signed, in accordance with applicable legal provisions, by the party who exercises paternal authority, protection or administration but are not accompanied by the authorisation of the judge supervising the guardianship, they shall be accepted with reservations and not counted for the purpose of determining the percentage of Offer Acceptance, and they shall be paid for in any case only when the authorisation is obtained.
The Offer may be accepted only for Shares which at the moment of Acceptance are duly registered and available in a securities account in the name of the Offer Participant open at a Custodian Intermediary.
In the case of an irregular Acceptance not remedied within the term of the Acceptance Period, the Shares for which the Offer was accepted on the basis of such irregular Acceptance shall be returned to the respective owners within the first Trading Day of the end of the Acceptance Period, with no additional expenses for Participants.
Please note that the Acceptance of the Offer by Shareholders is irrevocable, without prejudice to the case in which during the Acceptance Period a public tender offer on the Shares pursuant to article 106 of the TUF is promoted.
For the entire period during which the Shares are restricted in connection with the Offer and, therefore, from the Acceptance Date until the Payment Date, the Offer Participants may exercise all property (such as the option right and the dividend right) and corporate (such as the voting right) rights relating to the Shares for which the Offer is accepted. In the same period of time, the Participants may not transfer, in

whole or in part, and in any case carry out acts of disposal concerning the Shares for which the Offer was accepted (without prejudice to the right to revoke the acceptances of the Offer in the event of competing offers or higher offers pursuant to article 44, paragraph 7, of the Issuer Regulation).
At the Payment Date, the Intermediary In Charge of Collection will transfer all Shares for which the Offer was accepted into a securities account in the name of OJM. Therefore, as of the Payment Date, the Offer Participants may no longer exercise property and corporate rights relating to the Shares for which the Offer is accepted.
During the Acceptance Period, the Intermediary in Charge of Coordinating the Collection of Acceptances will communicate to Borsa Italiana on a daily basis, pursuant to art. 41, paragraph 2, lett. d), of the Issuer Regulation, data relating to acceptances received during the day and the total Shares for which the Offer was accepted, as well as the percentage that these quantities represent with respect to the Shares Subject to the Offer. Borsa Italiana will publish such data by means of a specific notice by the end of the following day.
The provisional results of the Offer will be published by the Offering Party, pursuant to art. 36 of the Issuer Regulation, via the publication of a notice by the evening of the last day of the Offer Acceptance Period and in any case by 7:29 a.m. on the first Trading Day after the end of the Offer Acceptance Period, unless it is extended.
The final results of the Offer will be published by the Offering Party, pursuant to art. 41, paragraph 6, of the Issuer Regulation, by means of publication of a notice by 7:29 a.m. on the Trading Day prior to the Payment Date, i.e. 14 September 2023, unless the Acceptance Period is extended.
The effectiveness of the Offer is subject to the MAC Condition and the Burdens Condition.
At any time and at its sole discretion, the Offering Party may waive, or modify the terms of, whole or in part, the Conditions of the Offer.
The Offering Party shall give notice of the fulfilment or non-fulfilment of the Conditions of the Offer and any decision to waive them, by 7:29 a.m. on the second stock market Trading Day after the end of the Acceptance Period, unless extended, by means of a communication, pursuant to article 36 of the Issuer Regulation, as well as in the above-mentioned Notice of Final Results.
In the event of non-fulfilment of one or more of the Conditions of the Offer and failure by the Offering Party to exercise the right to waive them, with the resulting ineffectiveness of the Offer, the Shares for which the Offer was accepted will be returned to their respective holders, without any expenses or fees charged to them, by the first stock market Trading Day following the first announcement whereby the Offer is declared null and void for the first time.

The Offer is promoted exclusively in Italy, as the Shares are listed on the Euronext STAR Milan, and is intended, under equal conditions, for all Shareholders.
The Offer has not been and will not be promoted or disseminated in the United States of America, Canada, Japan or Australia, or in any other country in which it is not permitted without authorisation from the competent authorities (jointly, the "Other Countries"), either using instruments of domestic or international communication or commerce of the Other Countries (including, for example, the postal network, fax, telex, email, telephone and internet), or through any structure of any of the financial intermediaries of the Other Countries, or in any other manner whatsoever.
A copy of this Offer Document, or portions of it, as well as a copy of any subsequent document that OJM will make available to the public in relation to the Offer, are not and shall not be sent, or transmitted in any other manner whatsoever, or in any case directly or indirectly distributed, in the Other Countries.
Anyone who receives the above-mentioned documents must not distribute, send or dispatch them (either by post or any other means or instrument of communication or commerce) in the Other Countries.
The Offer Document is not and may not be interpreted as an offer of financial instruments intended for parties residing in the Other Countries. No instrument may be offered or bought or sold in the Other Countries without specific authorisation in compliance with the applicable local legal provisions of such Other Countries or an exception to such provisions.
Acceptance of the Offer by parties residing in countries other than Italy may be subject to specific obligations or restrictions set forth by provisions of law or regulations. Those intending to accept the Offer bear exclusive liability for complying with such regulations and, therefore, before accepting the Offer, they must check with their advisors with respect to the existence and applicability of such regulations.
Any Acceptances resulting from solicitation activities carried out in violation of the limitations set forth above shall not be accepted.
The Consideration payment shall take place on the Payment Date, i.e. 15 September 2023, without prejudice to any extensions of the Acceptance Period that may be made in compliance with provisions of law or regulations in force.
No interest shall be paid on the Consideration between the Offer Acceptance Date and the Payment Date.
At the Payment Date, the Intermediary In Charge of Collection will transfer all Shares for which the Offer was accepted into a securities account in the name of the Offering Party. The payment of the Consideration is subject to the performance of the formalities required to transfer the Shares to the securities account of OJM, which will take place when the payment is made.
As of the Payment Date, the Offer Participants may no longer exercise all property (such as the option

right and the dividend right) and corporate (such as the voting right) rights relating to the Shares for which the Offer is accepted.
For the entire period in which the Shares are restricted in connection with the Offer and, therefore, until the Payment Date, the Participants may exercise the property and corporate rights relating to the Shares which will remain the property of the Participants. During the same period of time, Participants may not transfer, all or in part, or in any event dispose of the Shares for which the Offer has been accepted.
The Consideration for the Shares for which the Offer is accepted will be paid in cash and effectively withdrawn on the outcome of the Offer.
The Offer Consideration will be paid by the Offering Party, through the Intermediary In Charge of Collection, to the Custodian Intermediaries, which shall transfer the funds to the accounts of the respective Participant customers (or their agents) in compliance with the instructions provided by the participants themselves (or by their agents) on the Acceptance Form.
The obligation of OJM to pay the Consideration due for the Shares for which the Offer is accepted and effectively withdrawn on the outcome of the Offer will be deemed met when the relative funds are credited to the Custodian Intermediaries. Therefore, the Offer Participants shall bear exclusively liability for the risk that the Custodian Intermediaries may not transfer such funds or delay their transfer in favour of the Offer Participants entitled to them.
At the date of this Offer Document, the Offering Party has not entered into contracts with holders of the Shares in relation to Acceptance of the Offer.
The Acceptance of this Offer is governed by Italian law. The Court of Milan has exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute concerning Offer Acceptance deeds.
In the event of non-fulfilment of the Conditions of the Offer and failure by the Offering Party to exercise the right to waive them, with the resulting ineffectiveness of the Offer, the Shares for which the Offer was accepted will be returned to their respective holders, without any expenses or fees charged to them, by the first stock market Trading Day following the first announcement whereby the Offer is declared null and void.
When the amount of the Shares for which the Offer is accepted exceeds the total number of Shares subject to the Offer, the Shares will be involved in an Allocation on the basis of the provisions of Section L. of this Offer Document.
The Shares for which the Offer is accepted that will not be acquired following the application of the Allocation will be returned to the respective holders, without such holders being charged for any

expenses or costs, within the first Trading Day subsequent to the Notice of Final Results.

The Offering Party intends to financially cover the Maximum Outlay of the Offer, equal to a maximum of EUR 13,500,000.00, through the resources deriving from the loan taken out on 28 June 2023 from Banco BPM S.p.A. (the "Banco BPM Loan").
The loan may be used by the Company exclusively to finance:
• with reference to the amortising credit line:
(i) for a maximum amount of EUR 6 million:
it being understood, in any case, that the total maximum amount of the above-mentioned credit line is EUR 30 million and that any residual amount following the completion of buy-back transactions may be used by the Company to finance support for liquidity requirements, also relating to working capital management, as well as for general cash requirements;
• with reference to the revolving credit line, up to a total maximum amount of EUR 5 million, to support liquidity needs, also connected to working capital management, as well as for general cash requirements.

It should be noted that if the entire amount of the loan of EUR 35 million is disbursed, the NFI, calculated on the basis of the available data at 31 December 2022 (see Section B.1.8), would amount to approximately EUR 41.6 million and even in the absence of a positive contribution in terms of EBITDA of the acquired companies, the NFI/EBITDA ratio would be equal to approximately 1.4 and therefore lower than the cap of 2.25.
The business type allows - as the Company has demonstrated in previous years - for the generation of significant cash flows, also as a result of the fact that the business does not require large investments in technology, products and research and development. In light of the above, the Company therefore believes that the debt assumed is sustainable.
The guarantee of exact fulfilment of the obligations of the Offer, for the purposes of art. 37-bis of the Issuer Regulation, was issued by Banco BPM S.p.A. On the basis of this guarantee, Banco BPM S.p.A. is irrevocably and unconditionally obliged to guarantee the exact fulfilment of the Offering Party's payment obligations as part of the Offer, to make the Maximum Outlay available and to pay, with readily available funds, to the Participants in the Offer the Consideration per Share for all Shares for which the Offer is accepted and purchased in the interest of the Participants in the Offer and at the mere written request of the Intermediary in Charge of Coordinating the Collection of Acceptances and with the methods specified by the latter.
By promoting the Offer, the Issuer intends to:

Although at present the cancellation of the Shares purchased with the Offer does not fall within the Company's strategic objectives, the Board of Directors will retain the right to cancel all or part of the Treasury Shares in execution of the mandate granted by the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting on 21 April 2023.
The Offer is not intended to, nor may it, result in the delisting of the ordinary shares of the Issuer from the Euronext STAR Milan.
The Company's mission is to support business development by evaluating possible growth opportunities consistent with its mission, while continuing to be a leader in the field of human resources, aiming to be a partner of companies interested in the services offered and a reference point for the workers interested in entering, re-entering or repositioning themselves in the labour market.
As at the Offer Document Date, the Offering Party has not taken any decision with regard to any investments, while maintaining a particular focus on the opportunities that the market may offer, with the aim of dynamically continuing along the path of growth undertaken. If necessary, the Issuer will provide adequate disclosure in compliance with current legislation.
The Issuer has no corporate restructuring and reorganisation plans in place.
The term of office of the Issuer's Board of Directors currently in office – appointed for a three-year period on 30 April 2021 – will expire with the approval of the financial statements as at 31 December 2023.
At the Offer Document Date, the Issuer has not identified any specific amendments or changes to be made to the current Articles of Association of Openjobmetis S.p.A. in the 12 months following the Payment Date, except for what was approved by the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of last 21 April. In particular, the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting granted a mandate to the Board of Directors and, on its behalf, to the Chair of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director, jointly or severally, to update article 5.1 of the Articles of Association to reduce the number of shares specified therein by a number corresponding to the shares that will actually be cancelled in execution of the resolution whereby the Shareholders' Meeting approved the cancellation of all or part of the Shares that may be purchased under the authorisations granted by the Shareholders' Meeting, up to a maximum of 1,336,920 Shares, delegating for this purpose to the Board of Directors, with the power to sub-delegate to the Chair of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director, jointly or severally, to (i) determine the actual number of Treasury Shares to be cancelled from time to time in accordance

with the purposes set forth in the Board of Directors' explanatory report; and (ii) proceed with the relative cancellation, which may be divided into several tranches or carried out in a single transaction, in any case no later than 18 months from the date of this resolution.
The Offer consists of a partial voluntary public tender offer promoted in accordance with articles 102 et seq. of the TUF and is not intended to, nor may it result in the delisting of the Shares of the Issuer from the Euronext STAR Milan (delisting).
In consideration of the nature of the Offer, which is precisely a partial voluntary public tender offer on the Treasury Shares of the Offering Party, it may in no case lead to the Offering Party holding a total stake of more than 90% of the Issuer's ordinary share capital, and therefore the prerequisites for the Right to Purchase pursuant to art. 111 of the TUF and for the Obligation to Purchase pursuant to art. 108, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the TUF are not met.

In the last 12 months, no financial and/or commercial transactions were carried out between OJM, directly or via trust companies or third parties, and its shareholders or members of the Board of Directors or the Board of Statutory Auditors which may have or have had significant effects on the activities of OJM.
At the Date of the Offer Document, there are no agreements between the Offering Party and the shareholders of the Issuer concerning the exercise of voting rights, or the transfer of Shares of the Issuer.

By way of consideration for the functions performed in connection with the Offer, OJM will recognise and pay out the following remuneration, by way of a fee inclusive of any and all remuneration for brokerage activities:
No cost will be charged to the Offer Participants.

The Offer consists of a partial voluntary public purchase offer and is not intended to, nor may it, result in the delisting of the ordinary shares of the Issuer from the Euronext STAR Milan.
In the case of acceptances of the Offer for quantities of Shares exceeding the up to 1,500,000 Shares Subject to the Offer, an allocation will take place according to the "pro-rata" method, by means of which the Issuer will acquire the same percentage (equal to the Allocation Ratio) of Shares from all Participants for which they have accepted the Offer.
Should an Allocation be applied, the Issuer will withdraw without distinction from each Participant a number of Shares equal to the product between the number of Shares for which the Offer has been accepted and the Allocation Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares.
If the Shares for which the Offer is accepted by a single Shareholder are identified by different identification codes, in order to protect the positions accrued in relation to the possibility of exercising the increased voting right, in the case of an Allocation, the Offering Party will withdraw Shares from each Participant according to the following order of priority:
By 11:59 p.m. on the last Trading Day of the Acceptance Period, i.e. 8 September 2023, unless extended, the Offering Party will check the provisional results of the Offer and calculate any Allocation Ratio applicable in the event of an Allocation.

Excerpt from shareholders' agreement in accordance with article 122 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998 ("TUF") containing basic information in accordance with article 130 of Consob Regulation no. 11971 of 14 May 1999, as amended (the "Issuer Regulation")
Update of 18 July 2023.
On 13 July 2020, Omniafin S.p.A. with registered office at Via Giuseppe Pozzone no. 5, in Milan, Tax code and Registration Number with the Register of Companies of Milan 03223710157, VAT Number 11109720158 ("Omniafin") and MTI Investimenti S.r.l. with registered office at Viale Premuda no. 46, Milan, Tax code and Registration Number with the Register of Companies of Milan 92031510123, VAT Number 11266970968 ("MTI Investimenti" and, jointly, the "Parties") proceeded with the (i) early termination, as of 13 July 2020, of the shareholders' agreement that was signed between the same on 12 November 2015 with a duration of three years from 3 December 2015 and automatically renewed for a further two years until 1 December 2020 (the "2015 Agreement"), concerning their shareholding in Openjobmetis S.p.A. Agenzia per il Lavoro, with its registered office in Milan, via Assietta no. 19, Tax code, VAT Number and Registration Number with the Register of Companies of Milan 13343690155 (the "Company" or "Openjobmetis") and (ii) signed a new shareholders' agreement (the "2020 Agreement" or "2020 Shareholders' Agreement") focused on regulating certain specific aspects concerning their shareholding in the Company, with particular reference to the appointment of corporate bodies. On 22 March 2021, Omniafin and MTI Investimenti reached an agreement according to which they agreed to partially and within given limitations derogate certain provisions contained in the 2020 Agreement, with exclusive reference to the renewal of the Company's administrative body by the Shareholder's Meeting held on 30 April 2021. The agreement was formalised, by exchange of correspondence, in a letter (the "Derogation Letter") that was signed for acceptance by MTI on 22 March 2021.
The 2020 Shareholders' Agreement provides for a duration of three years, starting at 00.00 a.m. on 14 July 2020 and ending at 11:59 p.m. on 13 July 2023 and, on its natural expiry date, shall be automatically renewed for a further 3 (three) years, unless notice of termination is given by one of the Parties to the other at least 6 (six) months before the natural expiry date.
Since no notice of termination was given within the contractual term, the Agreement was automatically renewed for a further three years from the first natural date of expiry and therefore until 11:59 p.m. on 13 July 2026.
Furthermore, with respect to what was previously published on 05 January 2023, the situation regarding the number of shares and voting rights – as bound by the 2020 Agreement – has been changed as a result of the new composition of the Company's share capital, following the cancellation of 342,800 treasury shares without reduction of share capital, pursuant to the resolution passed by Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting on 21 April 2023 filed with the Company Register on 04 May 2023 (see Regulated Information no. n. 1803-20-2023/ 1803-21-2023).

All the shares and voting rights held by each Party are bound by the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement. The provisions of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement shall also apply with reference to the Company's shares of which Omniafin and/or MTI Investimenti should become direct or indirect holders in the course of the duration of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement.
None of the Parties exercises, by virtue of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement, control over the Company, in accordance with Article 93 of the TUF.

The 2020 Shareholders' Agreement regulates the mechanisms for designating the members of the Board of Directors and of the Board of Statutory Auditors of the Company, setting forth an undertaking for the Parties to submit a single list in the occasion of the appointment and of the renewal of each of the corporate bodies, as well as to vote for said list with all the shares the Parties will hold as at the date of the related resolution.
The Parties have undertaken to do everything in their power to ensure that, to the extent permitted by law, the Company is managed by a Board of Directors consisting of 9 (nine) directors appointed in the following manner on the basis of the list voting mechanism prescribed in the Articles of Association of the Company.
On occasion of the appointment of the Board of Directors, the Parties undertook to submit a single list of 9 (nine) candidates, designated as follows, in any case in compliance with the provisions of the law and the articles of Association applicable, including with regard to gender balance:
(i) 5 (five) directors, including 2 (two) directors who fulfil the independence requirements prescribed
by TUF and by the Corporate Governance Code for listed companies approved by the Corporate
Governance Committee and promoted by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (the "Corporate Governance Code"),
shall be designated by Omniafin;
(ii) 3 (three) directors, including 1 (one) director who fulfils the independence requirements prescribed
by the TUF and by the Corporate Governance Code, shall be designated by MTI Investimenti; and
(iii) 1 (one) director, who will be placed in ninth place on the list, who fulfils the independence requirements of the TUF and the Corporate Governance Code, shall be appointed by mutual agreement between Omniafin and MTI Investimenti.
As a partial and limited derogation of the provisions contained in the 2020 Agreement, the Derogation Letter required that, with reference to the Shareholder's Meeting held on 30 April 2021, the Parties proposed that the Board of Directors be composed of 10 (ten) directors. To this end, the Parties had undertaken to present a single list of 10 (ten) candidates, exclusively for the shareholder's meeting called for 30 April 2021, designated in accordance with the provisions contained in the 2020 Agreement as outlined earlier.
The Parties will agree in advance on the number of candidates of the less represented gender to be designated by each Party, it being understood that, in the event the Parties cannot reach an agreement that the top 8 candidates on the list include candidates of the less represented gender in the minimum number required by applicable law in force at the time, each Party will nominate candidates of the less represented gender in proportion to the total number of directors designated by each Party pursuant to points (i) and (ii) above, rounded off by Omniafin.
The Parties undertake to do everything in their power to ensure that, to the extent permitted by law, at the first meeting of the Board of Directors following the appointment and without prejudice to the current powers reserved for the Board of Directors:
(i) Marco Vittorelli is appointed Chairperson with the same powers as those granted to him at the date of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement;
(ii) Rosario Rasizza is appointed Managing Director with the same powers as those granted to him at the date of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement;
(iii) two Vice Chairpersons are appointed, the first identified as Biagio La Porta and the second provided

by Omniafin from among the directors appointed by the same, whose name will be proposed in sufficient time for his/her appointment.
If one or more directors designated by one of the Parties should leave office, each Party hereby undertakes to do everything in its power to ensure that, within the limits allowed by law, the director or directors that will replace him/her or them is, or are, appointed by the General Meeting of the Company (and before this, at the time of co-optation by the Board of Directors) in the persons indicated by the Party that had originally designated the director or the directors who left office and to the same (or to another director indicated by the Party that had previously appointed the person replaced) are conferred any powers or positions already held by the director who left office.
The Parties have undertaken to (i) do everything in their power to ensure that, for the entire duration of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement, the Company's Board of Statutory Auditors is composed of 3 (three) standing members and 2 (two) alternate auditors, and, (ii) to submit, at the time of the appointment of the Board of Statutory Auditors, and vote in favour of a single list of candidates designated as follows, in any case in compliance with the provisions of the law and the Articles of Association applicable, including with regard to gender balance:
(i) 1 (one) standing auditor placed first in the Standing Auditors section of the single list, who - if no list other than that of the Parties is submitted - will be appointed Chairperson, 1 (one) standing auditor placed third in the Standing Auditors section of the single list and 1 (one) alternate auditor placed first in the Alternate Auditors section of the single list will be appointed by Omniafin;
(ii) 1 (one) standing auditor placed second in the Standing Auditors section of the single list and 1 (one) alternate auditor placed second in the Alternate Auditors section of the single list shall be appointed by MTI Investimenti.
The Parties shall agree in good time in advance on the number of candidates of the less represented gender nominated by each Party so that the same Party shall nominate both the standing auditor and the alternate auditor of the less represented gender so that in case of withdrawal or termination for any reason of the standing auditor of the less represented gender, such auditor shall be replaced by the alternate auditor of the same gender nominated by the same Party. It is understood from this point on that, in the event that the Parties cannot reach an agreement allowing the above, MTI Investimenti shall nominate one standing auditor and one alternate auditor of the less represented gender.
The Parties have terminated the 2015 Agreement between them with effect from 11:59 p.m. on 13 July 2020.
The 2020 Shareholders' Agreement shall be effective for three years, starting at 00.00 a.m. on 14 July 2020 and ending at 11:59 p.m. on 13 July 2023 and, on its natural expiry date, shall be automatically renewed for a further 3 (three) years, unless notice of termination is given by one of the Parties to the other at least 6 (six) months before the natural expiry date.
The Derogation Letter was effective up to the date of the renewal of the Board of Directors as deliberated by the Shareholders' Meeting held on 30 April 2021.

If, within the term of the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement the shareholding held by Omniafin in the share capital of Openjobmetis, should fall below 8.9% or the shareholding held by MTI Investimenti in the share capital of Openjobmetis should fall below 2.5%, the 2020 Shareholders' Agreement shall be automatically terminated.
The 2020 Shareholders' Agreement was filed with the Register of Companies of Milan on 16 July 2020. The Derogation Letter was filed with the Company Register of Milan on 26 March 2021.
