• 1) with reference to the Plan's implementation procedures and clauses (paragraph 4.5 of the attached Informative Document), to change the EBIT resulting from the approved consolidated financial statements of the Company related to one of the years ending on 31.12.2018, 31.12.2019 or 31.12.2020, that is the performance target conditioning the vesting of the options granted under the second tranche, to Euro 20,000;

(Mercato Telematico Azionario) for the preceding month leading up to the day on which the Board of Directors resolves the granting of options under
