(prepared pursuant to Article 125-ter of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998, as amended and supplemented)
On March 2, 2023, the Board of Directors of Salvatore Ferragamo S.p.A. (the "Company"), on the proposal of the Nominations and Remuneration Committee, resolved to propose to the subsequent Shareholders' Meeting, convened in a single call for April 26, 2023, the approval of the incentive plan called " Performance and Restricted Shares 2023-2025" (the "LTI Plan" or the "Plan"), which provides for the free assignment of ordinary shares (stock grant) (the "Shares") to certain employees and/or directors and/or collaborators of Company and/or other companies belonging to the Salvatore Ferragamo Group (the "Group"), who will be individually identified, for each of the three cycles into which the Plan is divided (the first relating to the 2023-2025 vesting period, the second relating to the 2024-2026 vesting period, and the third relating to the 2025-2027 vesting period) at the sole discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, after receiving the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
This report sets forth the main features of the Plan, in order to enable Shareholders to evaluate this proposed resolution in accordance with Article 114-bis of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998, as subsequently amended and supplemented (the "TUF"), it being understood that, for full disclosure, please refer to the Disclosure Document prepared pursuant to Article 84-bis of Consob Regulation No. 11971/99, as subsequently amended and supplemented (the "Issuers' Regulation") and in accordance with Template No. 7 of Annex 3A, attached to this report as an integral part thereof.
The Plan, in full compliance with applicable regulations as well as in line with best practice in this area, including the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies of Borsa Italiana S.p.A. in the January 2020 edition, represents a form of medium-to-long term incentive aimed at motivating and retaining (until the complete execution of the strategic plan presented on May 10, 2022, the "Strategic Plan") individuals invested with relevant functions with reference to the activity carried out by the Company and the Group by aligning their interests with those of the stakeholders, in a logic of sustainability and value creation in the medium-to-long term .
The Plan is reserved for selected employees and/or directors and/or collaborators of the Company and/or other companies belonging to the Group, who are considered key resources for the pursuit of

sustainable success in the medium to long term, and who will be identified by the Company's Board of Directors, after obtaining the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee (for each of the cycles of the Plan), at its sole discretion (the "Beneficiaries").
The Plan is divided into three cycles. The first covering the 2023-2025 vesting period, the second covering the 2024-2026 vesting period, and the third covering the 2025-2027 vesting period.
Each individual cycle of the LTI Plan includes:
The vesting of Initial Rights-divided into an amount equal to 75% of the same, linked to the achievement of retention and performance targets (the "Performance Rights"), and the remaining amount equal to 25% linked to the achievement of retention-only targets (the "Retention Rights")-and the corresponding allocation of Shares will be subject to review by the Board of Directors:
The relevant indicators for the vesting of Performance Rights (the "Performance Indicators") for the first Cycle of the Plan (2023-2025) are divided between economic-financial performance indicators (consistent with the Strategic Plan) and ESG indicators (in accordance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code and market best practices) and are as follows:

The number of Initial Rights (Performance Rights plus Retention Rights) will be determined by the Board of Directors with the approval of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee on the basis of an indicator equal to a multiple/percentage of each Beneficiary's fixed compensation and dividing this monetary equivalent by the average of the official price of the Shares in the 30 days preceding January 1 of the year of the beginning of each Plan cycle.
Subsequent to the completion of the vesting period of each cycle of the LTI Plan, each of the Beneficiaries will, in addition, be granted, free of charge, an additional number of rights calculated according to the Initial Rights accrued and the cumulative amount of dividends per Share distributed to the Company's shareholders during the period between the first day of the vesting period and the day before the date of grant of the Shares (both inclusive).
The allocation of Shares is further conditional:
The Shares, in the number corresponding to the relevant total rights, shall be assigned to the Beneficiaries, by appropriate notice from the Company, no later than the 30th (thirtieth) calendar day following the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year of the last year of each cycle.
For more information on the structure and terms and conditions of the Plan, please refer to the Information Document.
4. Availability constraints on the Shares or on the option rights granted, with particular reference to the terms within which subsequent transfer to the same company or to third parties is permitted or prohibited
The Initial Rights will be granted to the Beneficiaries in their personal capacity and may not be transferred by deed between living persons, nor may they be subject to liens or be the subject of other acts of disposition for any reason whatsoever (deed of transfer being understood to mean any and all transactions by which the effect of transferring the rights to third parties is obtained, directly or indirectly, including gratuitous deeds, exchanges and contributions).
Any attempted sale, assignment, lien or transfer made in violation of this paragraph, as well as the execution of rights hedging transactions by the Beneficiaries prior to the allotment of the Shares shall

be considered illegitimate and ineffective against the Company and, in any event, shall automatically result in the loss of any rights connected with and/or related to the Plan.
The Beneficiaries who will be identified by the Board of Directors (subject to the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee) from among those who report directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company and/or who have responsibility for a so-called "region," for the period during which they hold that role (or a role that is otherwise similar, reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company) will be obliged to hold continuously, until the end of the 2nd calendar year following the end of each vesting period, all the Shares granted under the Plan.
These Shares shall be subject to a restriction of inalienability - and therefore may not be sold, contributed, exchanged, given as a carry-over, or the subject of other acts of disposition between living persons - until the expiration of the above terms.
The constraints referred to in this paragraph will remain even in the event of termination of the Relationship, for whatever reason, except only for "good leaver," death or total and permanent disability resulting in termination of the Relationship.
For more information on the availability constraints on the Shares under the Plan, please refer to the Information Document.
The Plan does not receive any support from the special Fund to encourage workers to participate in businesses, referred to in Article 4, Paragraph 112, of Law No. 350 of December 24, 2003.

The following proposed resolution is then submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting for approval:

The Plan is also consistent with the Remuneration Policy for the year 2023, submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting convened in a single call for 26 April 2023.

Each individual cycle of the LTI Plan includes:
The Initial Rights will be divided into an amount equal to 75 per cent (seventy-five per cent) of the Initial Rights linked to the achievement of retention and performance targets (the "Performance Rights"), and the remaining amount equal to 25 per cent (twenty-five per cent) linked to the achievement of retention-only targets (the "Retention Rights").
Performance Rights may vest according to an (independent) incentive curve of between 50% and 150%. Retention Rights may vest in a fixed amount equal to 25% of the Initial Rights.
The vesting of the Initial Rights and the corresponding assignment of the Shares will be subject to verification by the Board of Directors:
For the First Cycle of the Plan, the relevant indicators for the accrual of Performance Rights are divided between financial performance indicators (consistent with the strategic plan presented to the market on 10 May 2022) and ESG indicators (in accordance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code and market best practices) and are as follows:
| INDICATOR | DEFINITION | WEIGHT |
|---|---|---|
| AVERAGE GROWTH % PRODUCT NET SALES |
Average growth in % to Product Net Sales, by which is meant the sum of sales in the retail and wholesale channel (as reported in the financial statements) net of assignments and returns (other revenue components such as royalties, hedging, rental income, etc. are therefore not included). |
30% |
| CUMULATIVE EBITDA OVER THE THREE-YEAR PERIOD |
The operating result (as reported in the financial statements) before depreciation, amortisation and impairment of tangible and intangible assets and right-of-use assets. |
30% |
| ARITHMETIC AVERAGE The ROIC for each individual year is the net profit for the period (as OF ROIC OVER THE reported in the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for |

| THREE-YEAR PERIOD | the year in question) divided by the average adjusted net invested capital (the latter represented by net invested capital excluding assets for right of use and those classified as investment properties) |
|
|---|---|---|
| Metrics on climate: 100 per cent renewable energy in all corporate locations worldwide by 2029 |

5% |
For each of the performance indicators there is an incentive curve that links the number of Performance Rights that can vest to the level of the performance indicator achieved. The Performance Rights will vest according to the level of achievement, at the end of the vesting period of each cycle of the Plan, of the relevant performance indicators.
For the First Cycle, each performance indicator will be relevant for the purpose of calculating the number of Performance Rights accrued as indicated in the following tables, by apportioning the result to the weight of the relevant indicator, and providing in particular that, at certain levels of performance, only a portion of the Performance Rights (i.e. the target number) shall accrue, while, for performances exceeding certain levels, the entire number of Performance Rights (i.e. the maximum number) shall accrue, in the portion linked to each performance indicator:

Subsequent to the completion of the vesting period of each cycle of the LTI Plan, each of the Beneficiaries will also be assigned, free of charge, an additional number of additional rights ("Additional Rights") calculated on the basis of the Initial Rights accrued and the cumulative amount of dividends per Share distributed to the shareholders of the Company during the period between the first day of the vesting period and the day preceding the date of assignment of the Shares (both inclusive) (the "Distributed Dividends"), by application of the following formula
| Additional Rights = | Number of Initial Rights Accrued * Dividends Distributed |
|---|---|
| Official average closing price of the Shares in December 2025 (for the First Cycle), 2026 (for the Second Cycle) and 2027 (for the Third Cycle) |
The Shares, in the number corresponding to the relevant total rights, will be assigned to the Beneficiaries, by means of a special notice from the Company, no later than the 30th (thirtieth) calendar day following the date of approval of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the last year of each cycle.
The assignment of the Shares will be made through an authorised intermediary specifically appointed by the Company, who may receive instructions from the Beneficiary to:

For a description of the effects brought about by the termination of the Relationship, please refer to Section 4.8 below.
The number of Initial Rights will be determined by the Board of Directors, after consulting with the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, on the basis of an indicator equal to a multiple/percentage of each Beneficiary's fixed remuneration and dividing this monetary countervalue by the average of the official price of the Shares during the 30 days preceding 1 January of the year in which each cycle of the Plan begins (and, thus, for the First Cycle, 1 January 2023).
The vesting of the Initial Rights and the corresponding assignment of the Shares is subject to the Board of Directors' verification of the attainment of the condition of permanence of the Ratio at the end of the vesting period of each cycle of the Plan and/or the level of one or more performance indicators at the end of the vesting period of each cycle of the Plan, as indicated in the paragraph above 2.2.
Subsequent to the completion of the vesting period of each cycle of the Plan, each of the Beneficiaries will be assigned, free of charge, an additional number of Additional Rights calculated on the basis of the Initial Rights accrued and the Dividends Distributed, in application of the formula set forth in the previous paragraph 2.2.
With the priority objective of ensuring an alignment of interests with shareholders, with a view to value creation and guaranteeing the retention of key figures in the medium-long term, the variable portion represents a significant part of overall remuneration, contributing to defining an adequate competitive paymix consistent with the Group's strategic objectives and risk management policy.
2.4 the reasons underlying any decision to assign financial instrument based compensation plans not issued by the financial instrument issuer, such as financial instruments issued by subsidiaries or parent companies or third party companies with respect to the group of origin; in the event that said instruments are not traded on regulated markets, information on the criteria used to determine the value assigned to them
Not applicable, as the Plan does not provide for the use of such financial instruments.
2.5 evaluations with regards to significant tax and accounting implications which have affected the definition the plans
Not applicable, as there are no significant tax and accounting implications affecting the definition of the Plan.

Not applicable, the Plan does not receive support from the special Fund to encourage workers to participate in businesses, referred to in Article 4, paragraph 112, of Italian Law no. 350 of 24 December 2003.
The Shareholders' Meeting convened, in a single call, for 26 April 2023 will be called to resolve, in addition to the approval of the Plan, the assignment to the Board of Directors, with the right to sub-delegate, of any power necessary or appropriate to fully and completely implement the Plan, to be exercised in accordance with the terms established by the Shareholders' Meeting.
The Board of Directors is the entity entrusted with the administration of the Plan, with the power to subdelegate to third parties (including, by way of example, the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager or the Nomination and Remuneration Committee) within the limits provided for by the laws in force at the time and taking into account the powers delegated by the Shareholders' Meeting (for which see Section 3.1 above).
In the event of extraordinary transactions on the Company's capital (such as but not limited to: mergers; demergers; reductions in the capital, also due to losses through the cancellation of Shares; reductions in the nominal value of the Shares due to losses; increases in the Company's capital, either free or against payment, offered in option to the Shareholders or without option rights, possibly also to be paid in kind; distribution of extraordinary dividends to the Shareholders; grouping or splitting of Shares events of an extraordinary and/or non-recurring nature and/or not ascribable to the Company's and/or the Group's typical business, considered of particular significance and/or not currently envisaged in the management plans, entailing a significant change in the Group's scope; significant changes in the macroeconomic and/or competitive scenario; extraordinary events with a significant impact outside the management's levers of action legislative or regulatory changes; or other events likely to affect the rights, the Shares, the Group and/or the Plan), the Board of Directors may make any amendments and additions to the Plan, autonomously and without the need for further approval by the Shareholders' Meeting, that it deems necessary or appropriate to keep unchanged, within the limits allowed by the legislation applicable from time to time the substantive and economic contents of the Plan as well as to ensure constant compliance with the laws and regulations (including regulatory provisions) applicable from time to time, in the spirit of preserving convergence between the interests of the Beneficiaries and the interests of the shareholders and with the common intent of creating sustainable value also in consideration of the interests of the other stakeholders. In such cases, the Board of Directors may amend, supplement or reduce, inter alia, the following non-exhaustive examples:

c) performance indicators.
In case, then:
The Board of Directors shall also have the power to temporarily suspend or cancel or amend the terms of the LTI Plan (independently and without further approval by the Shareholders' Meeting):
The decisions of the Board of Directors referred to in the preceding paragraphs shall be binding on the Beneficiaries, without the need for any further acceptance by them. In such cases, the Company shall not be liable for damages, indemnities or for any other reason to the Beneficiaries and none of the Beneficiaries shall have any claim against the Company in relation to the rights, even if already assigned, and to the Shares not yet assigned.
The free assignment of Shares in execution of the Plan will take place using Treasury Shares from purchases authorised by the Shareholders' Meeting, pursuant to Articles 2357 and 2357-ter of the Italian Civil Code.

The features of the Plan were determined collectively by the Company's Board of Directors. The Nomination and Remuneration Committee was involved in the various stages of preparing the Plan.
The Beneficiaries of the Plan may also include directors of the Company, therefore, the resolutions implementing the Plan will be adopted in accordance with Articles 2389 and 2391 of the Civil Code as applicable.
At its meeting of 24 February 2023, the Nomination and Remuneration Committee examined the Plan, giving its positive opinion, and resolved to submit it to the Board of Directors for approval.
At the meeting held on 2 March 2023, the Board of Directors, with the favourable opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and the Board of Statutory Auditors, resolved to approve the Plan proposal and submit it to the Shareholders' Meeting for approval.
The vesting of the Initial Rights and the assignment of the Shares is subject to the verification by the Board of Directors of the fulfilment of the conditions set forth in Section 2.2. at the end of the vesting period of each cycle, after having consulted the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, to the extent of its competence.
The Shareholders' Meeting called to deliberate on, among other things, the approval of the Plan is scheduled for 26 April 2023.
Following the Shareholders' Meeting approval of the Plan, the Board of Directors will (again on the proposal of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and subject to the favourable opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors) take the resolutions relevant to the implementation of the Plan.
The dates of the decisions taken by the Board of Directors regarding the assignment of the Shares will be communicated in the manner and within the terms indicated in Article 84-bis, paragraph 5, letter a) of the Regulation on Issuers.
The market price of the Shares on 24 February 2023 (i.e. on the date on which the Nomination and Remuneration Committee approved the Plan proposal) is EUR 17.58.
The market price of the Shares on 2 March 2023 (i.e. on the Date of Approval by the Board of Directors) is EUR 18.45.
Information that is not available at the date of this document will be provided pursuant to Article 84-bis (5) (a) of the Issuers' Regulation.

3.9 in the case of plans based on financial instruments traded on regulated markets, in what terms and how the issuer considers, when identifying the timing of the assignment of instruments in implementation of the plan, of the possible timing coincidence of: (i) said assignment or any decisions taken in this regard by the remuneration committee; and (ii) the diffusion of any significant information in accordance with article 17 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014; for example, if such information is: (a) not already public and able to positively affect market listings, or (b) already public and able to negatively affect market listings
The entire implementation of the Plan shall be carried out in full compliance with the disclosure obligations incumbent on the Company, so as to ensure transparency and equality of information to the market, as well as in compliance with the procedures adopted by the Company, including those concerning market abuse and management of privileged information.
4.1 the description of the ways in which the compensation plans based on financial instruments are structured; e.g. specify if the plan is based on the attribution of: financial instruments ("restricted stock assignment"); the increase of value of these instruments ("phantom stock"); option rights that enable the subsequent purchase of financial instruments ("option grants") with regulation for physical delivery ("stock option") or for cash on the basis of the differential ("stock appreciation right")
The Plan provides for the assignment, free of charge, of a number of Shares to be determined on the basis of a monetary consideration, as illustrated in Sections 2.2 and 2.3 above. Each right corresponds to 1 (one) Share.
The Plan is divided into three three-year cycles (the first covering the 2023-2025 vesting period, the second covering the 2024-2026 vesting period and the third covering the 2025-2027 vesting period).
In consideration of what is illustrated in Section 4.2 above, the Vesting Period of the First Cycle of the Plan shall end on 31 December 2025, without prejudice to the two additional lock-up years starting from the expiry of the vesting period for the Beneficiaries identified by the Board of Directors among those who report directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company and/or who have the responsibility for a so-called "region", for the period in which they shall maintain that role (or a similar role reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company).
As of the Date of the Information Document, as the Beneficiaries have not yet been identified, the maximum number of Shares attributable to them cannot be determined.
4.5 the methods and clauses for the implementation of the plan, specifying if the effective attribution of the instruments is subject to conditions being met or given results being achieved, including performance-related; a description of said conditions and results
Please refer to Section 2.2 above.

The Initial Rights and the Additional Rights shall be granted to the Beneficiaries in their personal capacity and may not be transferred by deed between living persons, nor may they be subjected to a lien or be the object of any other act of disposition for any reason whatsoever, being understood as an act of transfer any and all transactions by which the effect is obtained, directly or indirectly, to transfer the rights to third parties, including gratuitous deeds, exchanges and contributions. Any attempted sale, assignment, encumbrance or transfer made in violation of this paragraph, as well as the execution of hedging transactions on the rights by the Beneficiaries prior to the assignment of the Shares shall be considered illegitimate and ineffective towards the Company and, in any case, shall automatically entail the loss of any right connected and/or related to the LTI Plan.
The Beneficiaries who will be identified by the Board of Directors (subject to the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee) among those who report directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company and/or who have responsibility for a so-called "region", for the period during which they will hold that role (or a similar role reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company) shall be obliged to continuously hold, until the end of the 2nd (second) calendar year following the end of each vesting period, all the Shares granted under the Plan (without prejudice, of course, to the Sell to Cover mechanism and without prejudice to the provisions of Section 4.8 in the case of "good leaver").
Such Shares shall be subject to a restriction of inalienability - and therefore may not be sold, conferred, exchanged, given as a carry-over, or subject to other acts of disposition between living persons - until the expiration of the terms set forth above.
The above constraints shall remain in place even in the event of termination of the Relationship, for whatever reason, except only in the event of death or total and permanent invalidity entailing termination of the Relationship.
4.7 the description of any termination conditions in relation to the attribution of plans in the event that the addressees should carry out hedging operations that enable the neutralisation of any prohibitions of the sale of the financial instruments assigned, also in the form of options, or financial instruments arising from the exercise of these options
See previous Section 4.6.
The assignment of the Shares is conditional:
as better specified below, unless otherwise decided by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
In the event of termination of the Relationship (i.e. notice of withdrawal from the Relationship) on a date prior to the date referred to in paragraph a) above as a result of:

c) particularly serious violations of the Group Code of Ethics (resulting in the termination of the relationship);
the Beneficiary will definitively lose the right to the assignment of the Shares.
In all cases of termination of the Relationship (or notice of withdrawal from the Relationship) other than those referred to above:
The right of the Beneficiaries to the assignment of the Shares shall remain suspended from the moment of the sending of a letter of disciplinary notice (pursuant to and for the purposes of Article 7 of Law No. 300/70), or from the initiation of a precautionary suspension measure, whichever is earlier, and until the moment of receipt of the communication with which the relevant sanction has been imposed or of the communication from the Company that it does not intend to proceed with the imposition of any sanction or that it intends to terminate the precautionary suspension measure.
It is understood that, in the event of transfer of the Relationship from the Company to another company of the Group and/or in the event of termination of the Relationship and simultaneous establishment of a new Relationship within the Group, the Beneficiary shall retain, mutatis mutandis, the rights attributed to him/her under the Plan.
Except as indicated in other Sections of this Information Document (including the previous Section 3.3), there are no other causes of cancellation of the Plan.
4.10 reasons in relation to the potential provision for "redemption" by the company of the financial instruments concerned by the plans, arranged in accordance with Article 2357 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code; the beneficiaries of the redemption, specifying if it is only intended for specific categories of employees; the effects of the termination of employment on said redemption
The Plan does not provide for redemption clauses by the Company.
However, in line with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code, and without prejudice to the provisions of the Company's remuneration policies from time to time, should objective circumstances emerge from which it emerges that the data on the basis of which the achievement of the performance indicators on which the assignment of the Shares is conditional was verified were manifestly erroneous, the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, reserves the right to obtain from the Beneficiary author of one of the aforesaid acts and/or facts, the revocation of the rights and/or the return of the Shares held by the Beneficiary, including the Shares on which the lock-up commitment was encumbered, with the consequent definitive extinction of any right claimed by the latter in this regard.
The manifest error that can characterise the data can be:

The Board of Directors also reserves the right to exercise the right of clawback against individuals who are found to be responsible, with malice or gross negligence, for violations of laws and/or regulations, of the Code of Ethics (if this entails the termination of the Relationship) even where such conduct has not had a direct impact on the achievement of performance indicators and the assignment of Shares.
The Board of Directors shall decide at its sole discretion whether and to what extent to exercise the clawback right, which may be exercised no later than 3 (three) years from the assignment of the Shares.
Not applicable. No loans or facilities are to be granted for the purchase of the Shares as they will be assigned free of charge.
Please refer to Sections 2.2 and 4.4. The expected burden for the Company cannot be determined at present, as it depends on the number of identified Beneficiaries, the number of Shares assigned to each Beneficiary and the market value of the Shares.
Given the use of treasury shares, no dilution effects on capital are expected.
There is no limit on the exercise of voting rights and the assignment of property rights.
Not applicable.

See paragraph 3.3 above.
