Chairman's Letter

Dear Shareholders,

I am delighted to present the Remuneration Report for 2014 which will be put to the Shareholders' meeting.

In 2014, all topics related to remuneration within the Prysmian Group were given, as always, the utmost attention. We have pursued the objective of strengthening and upgrading the pay tools we introduced in previous years while continuing to build on a Group pay policy in line with a responsible approach focused on performance, sustainability and a transparent dialogue with investors. Dialogue and transparency with investors remain key elements which we believe are symbolically represented by this report.

One of the most significant activities carried out by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee in 2014 to support the Board of Directors has been the monitoring of the first window implementation of the employee stock purchase plan "YES" (Your Employee Shares): a plan that allowed all the interested Group employees (executives, white collar and blue collar) in 27 different countries to purchase company shares at favourable terms and through which we are further increasing the employees engagement as well as their sense of belonging to the Group.

Another relevant activity for which the Committee has offered the Board its support was the evaluation of the failure to execute the long-term Incentive Plan (performance shares) and the deferral and coinvestment plan of the annual bonus for the period 2014-2016, as already approved by the Shareholders' Meeting, as a result of a problem that had arisen when implementing the WesterLink project. The delay accrued in the project, as a result of technical problems, has in fact led to a revision of the budget forecasts for the current year that resulted in the decision not to launch the Plan.

Finally, the Committee was asked to provide its own support in relation to the creation and revision of remuneration packages for the Executive directors, the Managers with Strategic Responsibilities and the Group's Internal Audit Manager. Said packages have been defined in line with the Group's internal policies and with market best practices.

We have collected the information relating to the remuneration policy in this Report, which describes its principles, governance, and elements which make up the remuneration of the Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, the short, medium and long-term incentive mechanisms and the related objectives, with the aim of increasing stakeholders' knowledge of our pay policies and to highlight their consistency with our business strategies.

This Remuneration Report has been approved by the Board of Directors on 25 February 2015 and section I will be submitted for an advisory vote to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting pursuant to applicable laws.

The Chairman of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee

Giulio Del Ninno

This document has been prepared in compliance with the provisions contained in CONSOB Resolution no. 18049 of 23 December 2011 in implementation of article 123-TER of Leg. Decree 58/1998 regarding transparency on Directors' pay in listed companies and is structured into two separate sections:

  • Section I, which explains the Remuneration Policy to be adopted in the year 2015;
  • Section II, which explains the final balance in terms of the Remuneration Policy actually adopted in the year 2014.

SECTION I

1. Introduction

The Remuneration Policy adopted by the Prysmian Group aims to attract and retain talented people with the skills necessary to achieve the company's objectives and to motivate management to pursue ever better performance in compliance with the company's values and culture.

The Group Pay Policy is defined so as to align the Management's interests with those of shareholders whilst pursuing the primary objective to create sustainable value in the medium to long term, by forging a real and verifiable link between the pay, on the one hand, and performance, both individual and of the Group, on the other.

The Remuneration Policy described in this document applies to the members of the Board of Directors and to Managers with strategic responsibilities.

  • Prysmian S.p.A. ("Prysmian" or "the Company") is currently managed by a Board of Directors consisting of eleven Directors:

2. Governance

The definition of the Policy is the result of a shared and transparent process in which the Remuneration and Appointments Committee ("the Committee") and the Board of Directors of the Company have a central role.

On an annual basis, in fact, the Remuneration and Appointments Committee puts the Pay Policy to the approval of the Board of Directors and supervises its application during the year.

The Board of Directors set up the Remuneration and Appointments Committee and appointed its members. This Committee has the role of providing consultancy and making proposals to the Board of Directors with reference to establishing the remuneration of the Group's Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, as indicated in the table, the appointment/substitution of independent Directors, as well as the size and composition of the Board.

The Committee currently consists of three independent non-executive Directors: Giulio Del Ninno, the Chairman, Massimo Tononi and Claudio De Conto.

The members of the Committee have long and consolidated experience and specific know-how in the economic and financial field.

The main responsibilities of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee are:

  • to assess and formulate the remuneration policy for executive Directors with particular functions;
  • to examine and discuss pay policy proposals for Managers with strategic responsibilities;
  • to assess and formulate any proposals made by the Company regarding management remuneration policies;
  • to periodically oversee the effective implementation of the proposals made and approved by the

Board of Directors as regards the remuneration of Managers with strategic responsibilities;

  • to verify the achievement of the performance objectives related to the incentive systems for the Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities.
  • to assess and formulate proposals made to the Board of Directors regarding share incentive plans, stock options, public ownership of shares and similar incentive and retention plans applicable to management and employees of Group companies that are owned by the Company;
  • to carry out preliminary investigations into the implementation of the executive directors succession plans if the Board of Directors resolves to adopt them.

For a description of the Committee's duties regarding the appointment of Directors, please refer to the "Remuneration and Appointments Committee" section of the Report on Corporate Governance Report and Ownership Structure.

In 2014, the Committee met 5 times and all the members took part in the meetings. The work undertaken by the Committee, with the support of the Group Human Resources Department, in particular concerned:

  • the formulation of proposals to be submitted to the Board of Directors regarding the remuneration of the Company's executive directors and managers with strategic responsibilities as regards both the fixed and variable parts of the remuneration;
  • the assessment of the criteria adopted in relation to both the variable incentive systems (based on the achievement of established objectives) and the pay policies for senior management;
  • the analysis of all information concerning the Prysmian Group remuneration policy as described in the remuneration report approved by the Board of Directors and also submitted for examination to the Shareholders' Meeting;
  • support in implementing the first purchasing window in relation to the Group employee stock purchase plan ("YES");
  • the definition of the new long-term Incentive Plan for the three years 2014-2016 and the closelyrelated deferral and co-investment plan;
  • the decision not to implement the medium- and long-term Incentive Plan for the three years 2014-2016.

In 2015, the committee has started working on the design and structure of the new Long Term Incentive plan 2015-2017.

The Remuneration and Appointments Committee, while providing advice and making, draws on the support of an independent external consultant, Hay Group, which provides information on trends, practices, and market pay levels on a global scale in order to monitor the Top Management pay fairness.

No Director takes part in meetings of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee during which proposals relating to their own remuneration are formulated.

The Group Human Resources and Organisation Director was invited to act as Secretary during the Remuneration and Appointments Committee meetings.

3. Remuneration policy principles

The key principles that form the basis of Prysmian's remuneration policy are:

  • to adopt a clear and transparent governance model:
  • "to pursue the creation of a balanced corporate governance system useful to achieve economic

and financial objectives while fully safeguarding shareholders, together with the achievement of better performance"

  • to support the corporate strategy, attract and retain key human resources for the organisation:

"people are essential to achieve the strategic objectives"

  • to ensure consistency between the management "total remuneration" and the Group's performance, in line with the shareholders' expectations: "the essential driver of Prysmian's remuneration systems is the business performance, in fact, a

significant part of management's remuneration, both short and medium term, depends on the achievement of performance objectives in line with the investors' expectations"

  • to implement policies in line with the risk profile, through an appropriate balance among the various elements of pay, aimed at supporting value creation:

"the remuneration systems philosophy favours a concept of performance measured over a time horizon which is sufficient to guarantee sustainability and value creation in the long term."

  • to foster the Group's employees involvement through the purchase and ownership of shares:

"through the YES plan and stock retention policies, Prysmian aims at increasing the number of employee shareholders who can participate in the success of the company"

4. Remuneration of the Chairman and of non-executive Directors

The Shareholders' Meeting of 18 April 2012 has approved, in addition to a reimbursement of all expenses incurred by the Board on behalf of the Company, a total gross remuneration of Euro 430,000 for each year in office. The Shareholders' Meeting has also given authority to the Board of Directors to determine the distribution of the above-mentioned remuneration to all or only some of the individual directors, based on the specific responsibilities held by each of them.

The Board of Directors has accepted the proposal submitted by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee which sets forth the following allocation of the annual remuneration:

  • (i) Euro 30,000 to the Chairman of the Board of Directors,
  • (ii) Euro 40,000 to each of the 7 independent non-executive directors, pursuant to the TUF, and
  • (iii) Euro 20,000 to each of the 6 members of the internal committees.

5. Remuneration of executive Directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities – elements of pay

The remuneration structure of executive directors and directors assigned specific duties and Managers with strategic responsibilities is defined by Prysmian with a twofold goal; on the one hand, it aims to attract and retain resources with appropriate professional qualities enabling them to achieve the company's objectives, whilst on the other it seeks to bring management's interests in line with those of the shareholders, thereby guaranteeing the sustainability of the business and results in the medium- and long-term.

This section of the report describes the key elements and the guidelines of the Remuneration Policy for the year 2015.

5.1. Fixed remuneration

The Executive directors and the Managers with strategic responsibilities' fixed pay levels are set at the moment of hiring according to the complexity, the actual responsibilities and the experience required of the job, as well as to the reference remuneration market. The comparison with the remuneration market is carried out with the support of a job evaluation method which enables consistent comparison and ensures a competitive position in the external market.

As for the Top Management positions, the reference market used consists of a panel of listed European companies. These companies are included in the FT Europe 500 listing as the main companies in Europe in terms of capitalisation.

The fixed component of the remuneration package is of relative importance on the total remuneration package of the individual directors (paragraph 6, pay mix). This limited weight, yet which is sufficient and appropriate even in the event that the variable part should not be disbursed due to failure to achieve the connected objectives, is such as to reduce excessively risk-oriented behavior, to discourage initiatives focused on short-term results and to enable a flexible approach to be taken towards the variable component.

Once a year, the Remuneration and Appointments Committee prepares a Pay Policy proposal for Top Management to be put for approval to the Board of Directors.

This policy may entail an update to the fixed remuneration. These potential revisions consider various factors, including the competitiveness with respect to the market remuneration data, sustainability, internal fairness and individual performance. It is therefore a meritocratic approach that is made even more objective by the introduction, in 2013, of a global performance assessment system (P3 - Prysmian People Performance) that is coherent and homogeneous throughout the Group.

This formal system for the annual performance assessment concerns, on an annual basis, all employees, including top executives, in terms of achievements and alignment to the Group's value model.

5.2. Variable short and medium/long-term remuneration

The variable component within the remuneration packages offered in Prysmian consists of three main elements:

  • annual bonus (short term)
  • co-investment of annual bonus + multiplier (medium term)
  • performance share (long term)

5.2.1. Annual bonus (MBO)

The variable annual incentive system (MBO - Management By Objectives) designed by the Group for certain employees holding positions of responsibility aims to align individual conduct with the organization's annual strategic objectives, rewarding the beneficiary for the results achieved in the shortterm (1 year).

The annual variable incentive system is defined each year by the Appointments and Remunerations Committee that proposes the objectives for the Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities to the Board of Directors, identifying the various metrics.

Each participant is assigned incentive percentages, at minimum and maximum, on the basis of their gross annual remuneration. The final payout will vary depending on the degree to which the objectives assigned have been achieved, up to a pre-defined cap. The incentive percentages are defined in relation to the hierarchical level and are consistent with the strategic nature of the role, with the aim of balancing the fixed and variable remuneration according to position and impact on results.

A multiplier/demultiplier of the final value of the MBO is then envisaged, linked to the individual performance assessment (P3), but always up to the cap identified in advance for each. In determining the bonus disbursed, qualitative performance and the employee's conduct are therefore also taken into consideration. The MBO plan has a very rigorous plan and each year the rules are communicated clearly and transparently to all participants.

The disbursement of the annual bonus will take place on a pro quota basis according to the months effectively spent with the Group during the performance period with a minimum working period of 9 months. The new hires will participate only if hired before July of each year.

Continuing on from previous years, the MBO 2015 plan will envisage:

  • two access conditions (on/off); one of a financial nature, linked to Group liquidity, the Group Net Financial Position, and one that is economic and connected to the Group's profitability, the Group EBITDA.
  • two economic/financial objectives relating to the relevant organizational unit
  • two objectives established according to the role played by the individual and which are also qualitative in nature and, for the functions where applicable, linked to sustainability criteria.

Below is a schematic presentation of the objectives for the management figures and the related weight on target for 2015.

Objective Weight on target
Group net financial position ON OFF condition
Group EBITDA ON OFF condition
Group EBITDA/EBITDA relating to business managed (e.g. Telecom Business EBITDA) 40% / 50%
Group Net Financial Position 20%
Group fixed costs 20% / 10%
Individual objective 20%

The following table, instead, shows the relationship between performance and annual bonus:

Annual bonus (MBO) – payout % on fixed remuneration
Chief Executive Officer Executive directors -
Managers with strategic
responsibilities
< threshold no payment
condition
on-off
> threshold payout is proportional to the level of objectives achievement
< Target (100) 0% 0%
Target (100) 66.7% 50%
level of achievement of the
pre-set 4 objectives
Maximum (150) 100% 75%
> Maximum (150) 100% (cap) 75% (cap)

If objectives are achieved at an intermediate level between target and maximum, the payout is calculated by linear interpolation.

5.2.2. Deferral and co-investment

The Deferral and co-investment plan concerning part of the annual incentive (MBO) accrued, will be valid for the two years 2015-2016 and is one of the components of the Long Term Incentive Plan, together with Performance Share, proposed for the three years 2015-2017 and described in the paragraph below. The LTI plan 2015-2017 has been approved by the Board of Directors on 25 February 2015 and which will be submitted for the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting on 16 April 2015.

Approximately 300 group key managers will benefit from this Plan, including the Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities. It is a non-compulsory plan but one that constitutes the essential condition for the beneficiaries to access the performance share plan.

Similarly to the Deferral and co-investment plan approved in 2014 but not implemented, the Deferral and co-investment plan will envisage part of the payment of the annual bonus accrued for 2015 and 2016 being deferred for a period respectively of two years and one year and, if certain pre-determined threeyear Group performance objectives are achieved, returned increased in the form of Prysmian shares. If, on the other hand, said performance objectives should not be achieved, this amount will be returned, again in the form of shares, but reduced, depending on the chosen co-investment profile, as explained below.

The Deferral and co-investment plan therefore also makes a good portion of the annual incentive (MBO) deferred and conditional on achieving the three-year objectives.

The co-investment profiles for the annual bonus from among which the beneficiaries can choose and to which different risk levels are associated are the following:

  • Basic Profile: the participant co-invests 25% of his annual bonus potentially accrued in 2015 and 2016 with the possibility of obtaining, in 2018 and in case of target level achievement of the preset objectives, a multiple of 1.5 times the amount co-invested in Prysmian shares (including the Co-investment itself), or of losing 25% of the co-invested amount should the Target not be achieved.
  • Balanced Profile: the participant co-invests 50% of his annual bonus accrued in 2015 and 2016 with the possibility of obtaining, in 2018 and in case of target level achievement of the pre-set objectives, a multiple of 2 times the amount co-invested in Prysmian shares (including the Coinvestment itself), or of losing 50% of the co-invested amount should the Target not be achieved.
  • Dynamic Profile: the participant co-invests 75% of his annual bonus accrued in 2015 and 2016 with the possibility of obtaining, in 2018 and in case of target level achievement of the pre-set objectives, a multiple of 2.5 times the amount co-invested in Prysmian shares (including the Coinvestment itself), or of losing 75% of the co-invested amount should the Target not be achieved.

The profile has to be chosen at the moment of acceptance of the plan and cannot be changed.

The objectives to which the multiple/demultiplier will be linked are:

  • the Group's accumulated adjusted EBITDA in the three years 2015-17
  • the Group's accumulated ROCE in the three years 2015-17

5.2.3. Performance share

The 2015-2017 Performance Share Plan approved by the Board of Directors on 25 February 2015 and which will be submitted to the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting on 16 April 2015 will envisage the allocation, in 2018, of a pre-set minimum and maximum number of Prysmian shares. In 2018, the plan participants, within the abovementioned range, will receive the number of shares linked to the degree to which the two Group three-year economic-financial objectives are achieved:

  • the Group's accumulated adjusted EBITDA in the three years 2015-17, counting for 70% and
  • the Group's accumulated ROCE in the three years 2015-17, counting for 30%.

The Plan beneficiaries will be around 300 Group key managers, including Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities.

The assignment value at the target level (assigned if the target level of both the above objectives is achieved) and the maximum level (if the maximum level of both the above objectives is achieved) will be defined for each beneficiary in relation to the role held and the individual fixed remuneration levels.

If an intermediate performance level is achieved between target and maximum, the number of performance shares assigned will take place by linear interpolation.

In compliance with Art. 6 of the Code of Conduct for Listed Companies a lock-up period, deemed of medium/long term nature (2 years) is also envisaged, during which the beneficiaries are not allowed to dispose of the shares that may have been allocated to them. For Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, this lock-up will be applied to 100% of shares, net of those sold to cover tax obligations.

Moreover, 10% of these shares will be career shares and the beneficiaries will therefore be unable to place any orders on them until the end of their career with Prysmian.

The plan will include claw back, for the duration of 4 years and malus, for the duration of 2 years, clauses, aimed, under certain circumstances, as example, but not exclusively, fraud, to recoup the granted, partially or totally. The clauses will cover the group CEO and senior management reporting to him. In addition it will cover other participants involved in fraud or willful misconduct.

During the plan implementation, while defining in details the characteristics, some might be adapted to guarantee the plan compliance with the local legislation and/or the exchange regulations and /or to ease the local deployment.

For more details, reference can be made to the related Information Document, available from the website www.prysmiangroup.com, in the Investor Relation - Corporate Governance - Remuneration - Incentive Plans section).

5.3. Benefits

The cash-equity pay offer is integrated by the following additional benefits:

  • supplementary pension integrative pension plan
  • supplementary medical insurance integrative healthcare insurance
  • accident insurance covering extra professional accidents
  • company car
  • ticket restaurant

Those benefits are adapted to the local environments, taking into account the market characteristics and the relevant legislations.

6. Pay-mix

The following graphs show the theoretical pay-mix of Prysmian executive directors and managers with strategic responsibilities when a target and maximum annual and three-year performance level is reached.

The graph shows the relative weight of the four elements of pay: (1) fixed, (2) cash annual variable - MBO, (3) medium - coinvestment and (4) long-term share variable – performance share.

The performance share value is calculated on the plan's fair value basis.

The pay-mix is calculated based on the actual potential total payment (cash, shares) in the 2015-2017 period during which the long-term incentive plan will be in effect.

Other forms of remuneration (non-competition clauses, retention bonuses), described in Section II of the Report, are not included in the pay-mix analysis.

CEO and General Manager, Valerio Battista Pay-mix – performance target Pay-mix – maximum performance

Executive Directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities Pay-mix – performance target Pay-mix – maximum performance

8. Other elements

8.1. Non-competition agreements

Prysmian envisages the possibility of signing non-competition clauses for executive Directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities and other employees with key roles within the organization.

In conformity with case law and practice, these clauses can provide for the payment of a percentage of annual fixed remuneration, according to the duration and extent of the restriction arising from the clause itself.

The non-competition clauses in place provide for the payment of this remuneration whilst employment contracts remain valid. As regards the Executive directors and Managers with strategic responsibilities, the Company has established that in stipulating future clauses, said remuneration will only be paid upon termination of employment.

The restriction relates to the sector in which the Group operates and has a variable territorial scope depending on the position held by the individual beneficiary.

8.2. Retention bonuses

While still enforceable for the future, to date no retention bonus is not applicable to any executive Director or Manager with strategic responsibilities.

8.3. The "YES" Plan

On 16 April 2013, the Prysmian Shareholders' Meeting approved the stock purchase plan, at favourable conditions, for the Group's employees: the YES (Your Employee Shares) plan.

The main objectives of the YES plan are the following:

  • to strengthen the commitment and the involvement of employees;
  • to make shareholders, customers and employees share their interests in the long term;
  • to foster the internal perception of the Prysmian Group as "One Company".

The Plan, intended for the Group's employees, has been implemented in 27 countries and offers to the employees the opportunity to purchase Prysmian shares, with a discount granted in the form of treasury shares, within three annual purchase windows (2014, 2015 and 2016), while accepting time constraints in relation to shares availability. A maximum number of 500,000 treasury shares are reserved for the Plan.

The employees who participate in the Plan may purchase Prysmian shares with a specific discount that will be granted in the form of treasury shares, equal to 1% for Senior Executives (the CEO, Executive Directors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities), 15% for managers and 25% for the remaining employees so as to encourage the participation of employees at all levels. For each category, a maximum annual investment has been set, i.e. Euro 13,335 for Senior Executives and Managers, Euro 8,000 for all other employees, within each purchase window. All participants, except for Senior Executives, will receive an entry bonus equal to 6 shares on the first year of participation.

The rules, briefly described above, might be slightly modified locally only for certain countries. These local variations are described in the addendum to the Regulation, of which they are an integral part.

The Plan has been launched globally in 2013 and has reached 32% participation among the eligible employees. In 2014, the first purchase window was implemented (as well as the additional window reserved to managers, as envisaged by the Plan Regulation). In 2015, the second window will be implemented.

For more details on the Plan, reference can be made to the related Information Document, available from the website www.prysmiangroup.com, in the Investor Relation - Corporate Governance - Remuneration - Incentive Plans section).

9. End of service or termination indemnity

As regards Executive Directors and/or Managers with strategic responsibilities, the Company undertakes not to enter into ex ante agreements for termination of office or of an employment relationship that are not in line with the provisions of the Code of Conduct and Corporate Governance best practice, in compliance with the laws and local collective bargaining agreements and in any case based on a payment not exceeding a total of 2 yearly pays.

During the year, the only agreement that differed from this Policy was also brought into line.

10. Pay structure for auditors

A specific long-term incentive plan will be envisaged for the manager of the Internal Audit Department and for the managers responsible for the Company's balance sheet, with objectives in line with his responsibilities; therefore, he will be excluded from the long-term incentive Plan, in compliance with the indications of Article 6 of the Code of Conduct for Listed Companies (2014 Edition). The managers responsible for the Company's balance sheet will instead participate in the plan; the claw back and malus clauses will be introduced also to support their activities.
