At the same time with the Business Units development, Tinexta has strengthened corporate functions for the effective management and coordination of the Subsidiaries' activities, with particular focus on Finance, Investor Relations, External Relations and Communication departments, but also Human Resources and Organization, recognizing its human capital as a central value on which founding sustainable success in the medium and long term in the offer of innovative services to companies.

In carrying out its tasks, the Committee continued to take into consideration the high consensus expressed by Shareholders on the 2021 Remuneration Policy, regulatory requirements and best market practices,

2 The text is published in the Governance – Shareholders' Meeting Section


2.1. The economic and operating results of 2021

For Tinexta, 2021 was a year characterized by important economic and operating results, as demonstrated in brief by the indicators shown above.
The Group's positive results, in terms of growth in revenues, EBITDA and generation of operating cash flows, derive from a medium-long term corporate strategy focused on:
-
- the robust organic growth of the four Business Units (Digital Trust, Cyber Security, Credit Information and Management, Innovation Marketing & Services), which led to a general strengthening of the Company's market positioning through the development of a range of innovative products, services and solutions;
-
- the M&A strategy through two strands of growth: internationalisation and enhancement of the offer with new services/products.
The Tinexta's success and the effectiveness of the strategy implemented were reflected in the value of the company on the market. In the 2016-2020 five-year period, the share price saw an exponential


growth that was confirmed in 2021, the year when the price of Tinexta shares increased from €21/share (price at 30/12/2020) to €38.16/share (price at 30/12/2021).
2.2. Tinexta's Business Plan and Remuneration Policy
With reference to the provisions of Art. 123-ter, paragraph 3-bis of the CLF, Tinexta has defined a 2022 Remuneration Policy, as described in the following pages, consistent with the long-term result objectives and with sustainability objectives, understood not only from an economic-financial but also from an environmental, social and governance point of view.
Specifically, Tinexta developed its 2022 Remuneration Policy by adhering to the pillars defined in the Company's new Business Plan (2022-2024), presented to the market on 28 February 2022, represented below.

The 2022 Remuneration Policy is part of the company growth plan and contributes to the realization of the Company's strategies through:
-
- a fixed remuneration aimed at adequately remunerating and retaining its personnel. Tinexta recognizes human capital as one of its success factors, as a Company where the level of services offered is high;
-
- incentive systems based on the pay-for-performance concept that envisage the assignment of: i) profit objectives, typically EBITDA; ii) financial and equity objectives, typically the cash flows generation or the debt ratio; iii) project objectives in support of M&A and integration initiatives; iv) ESG objectives;


- long-term plans based on financial instruments, i.e. the 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan and the 2021-2023 Stock Option Plan, aimed at maximum alignment between the objectives of the Business Plan, the orientation towards the creation of sustainable value in the long term and the interests of Top Management.
2.3. Results of Shareholders' Meeting votes
To support the Board of Directors in defining its Remuneration Policy, the Remuneration Committee attributed importance to the evidence emerging from the examination and in-depth analysis of the results of the Shareholders' Meeting vote and the feedbacks received from shareholders on remuneration aspects, as well as the results of engagement activities with Proxy Advisors, incorporating any useful ideas to achieve constant improvement in the adoption of market best practices, which were the subject of an in-depth study.
The evolution of voting expressions shows a substantial appreciation of the Policies by the market in the last three-year period (2019-2021) during which the Policy was enriched with new instruments, including long-term incentive plans (2020-2022 and 2021-2023 Stock Option Plans), increasingly aligned with the guidelines of institutional investors on remuneration, whose favourable vote in the 2021 Shareholders' Meeting reached 94% of the total.

1.8. Duration of the Remuneration Policy and derogation procedure
According to what is defined by paragraph 3-bis, Art. 123-ter of the CLF, the duration of this Policy is one year. If exceptional circumstances arise, the Company may derogate from the Remuneration Policy approved by shareholders in order to ensure (i) the pursuit of long-term interests and/or (ii) sustainability as a whole and/or (iii) the capacity for the Company to maintain its position on the reference market. In this case, the procedure and obligations envisaged by the Procedure for related party transactions adopted by the Company in compliance with Consob Regulation no. 17221/2010 and subsequent amendments shall apply.

In these situations, the Board of Directors, on the opinion of the Remuneration Committee and the Related Party Transactions Committee, after consulting the Board of Statutory Auditors, may temporarily derogate from the following elements of the Policy: fixed remuneration, short-term variable component and long-term variable component.
2. Purpose and principles of the Remuneration Policy
The Remuneration Policy defines the principles and guidelines for determining the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors, as well as the reference criteria for defining the remuneration of the Group management, in line with the Governance model adopted by the Company and with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code.
The Remuneration Committee supported the Board of Directors in assessing the validity of the contents that characterize the Remuneration Policy, taking into consideration four fundamental principles:



The Board of Directors has therefore defined a Remuneration Policy that contributes to the achievement of the corporate mission, values and strategies in the medium-long term and that guarantees the right financial recognition, in a fair manner and proportional to the responsibilities assigned, to the individual roles and services performed, as well as in compliance with the values of inclusion and equal opportunities.
The corporate remuneration strategy goal is the sustainable success of the Tinexta Group and the pursuit of the interests of the shareholders, taking into account the need to attract, retain and motivate people with the skills and professionalism required by the role held and to reward and support the achievement of individual and company performance objectives over time.
To this purpose, Tinexta has defined its policies and verified the remuneration structure of top management also on the basis of analyses conducted on market benchmarks referring to companies in the sector considered to be comparable, both in terms of size and business similarity (peer group), monitoring trends and best practices of the Italian market.

4.4. Chief Executive Officer and General Manager
The following section describes the remuneration elements for the role of Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, as resolved by the Board of Directors of Tinexta S.p.A.. Currently, the two offices are held by Mr. Pier Andrea Chevallard.


4.4.1. Chief Executive Officer
In defining the Policy, the Board deemed it appropriate that a significant part of the remuneration be linked to the achievement of specific performance objectives, indicated in advance and determined in accordance with the guidelines contained in the Policy (Art. 5, recommendation 27 of the Corporate Governance Code).
In particular, for this role, the Board approved a remuneration package as follows:

Based on the above, the variable component at target accounts for approximately 62% of the total remuneration paid to the Chief Executive Officer and is divided almost equally between the short-term and long-term variable components.
Fixed remuneration
The Remuneration Policy provides for the Chief Executive Officer a fixed annual remuneration broken down as follows:

Short-term variable remuneration (MBO)
The objectives related to the short-term variable remuneration (MBO), with regard to the 2022 Financial Year, were approved by the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Remuneration Committee, at the meeting of 17 March 2022 and are consistent with the budget for the financial year

in question within the context of the broader three-year Business Plan of the Company. The MBO Plan is also extended to Key Management Personnel, including some Chief Executive Officers of the Subsidiaries of Tinexta S.p.A.. The Plan's purposes and guidelines are summarised as follows:
The annual incentive system (MBO) was defined in such a way as to guide organizational conduct towards the achievement of economic, financial and strategic results for the Group, through the recognition of the individual's contribution to the company performance on an annual basis. The System also aims to strengthen focus on the creation of value, in line with the company strategy, budget objectives and the culture of integration and efficiency.
The short-term incentive system aims to achieve Tinexta's annual income and financial parameters as well as the pursuit of strategic projects and initiatives to support sustainable growth in the mediumlong term.
The Company has therefore provided for operating mechanisms whereby the incentive is paid only if positive results are achieved during the Financial Year that allow the financing of the MBO Plan. To this end, a "Performance Gate" objective was defined, which is challenging and aligned with the growth objectives that the Company has set itself for 2022. If the minimum performance level envisaged by the Performance Gate is not achieved, the bonus will not be disbursed.
For the year 2022, the Performance Gate was identified as 95% of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Tinexta Group, adjusted and net of the write-down of receivables, indicated in the 2022 Budget approved by the Board of Directors of Tinexta S.p.A.
Without prejudice to the need to reach the Performance Gate for the payment of the short-term variable remuneration component, the MBO Plan also provides for the assignment of 5 specific objectives for the Chief Executive Officer, both of an economic and financial nature, linked to profitability and the financial sustainability of the Company, both of a planning nature, linked to the definition and implementation of specific strategic initiatives for Tinexta, consistent with the pillars of the Business Plan, to be implemented in the short term to lay the foundations for the creation of sustainable value in the long term.
Among the objectives assigned to the Chief Executive Officer, note the provision, for the first time, of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) objectives linked to the implementation of the 2022 Sustainability Initiative Plan. This bears witness to Tinexta's concrete commitment towards the creation of a sustainable business model, not only from an economic and financial point of view but also from the point of view of the environment, care for the workers and for the communities in which


the Group operates, in terms of importance and transparency of governance and adherence to the ethical values defined by the Company.

With regard to the Group's consolidated adjusted EBITDA, if the minimum performance level, equal to 95% of the target, is achieved, the Chief Executive Officer will be paid an amount equal to 80% of the portion of the bonus corresponding to that objective. The achievement of 100% of the objective of the budget EBITDA will correspond to a pay-out of 100% of the portion of the bonus, with a linear progression between the two values.
For the other objectives, an on/off mechanism is envisaged based on the achievement or otherwise of the performance results assigned at target. The achievable bonus will therefore be equal to 0% or 100% of the target pay-out.
The short-term variable remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer was determined at the maximum total amount of €250,000 gross per year if all the objectives listed above are entirely achieved.
The bonus accrued will be in a monetary form and will be paid in a lump sum following the approval of the 2022 Financial Statements by the Shareholders' Meeting.


Long-term variable remuneration (2020-2022 Stock Option Plan)
On 28 April 2020, the Shareholders' Meeting approved the long-term incentive plan, called the "2020- 2022 Stock Option Plan", which identifies the Chief Executive Officer as the recipient, among others.
The Plan intends to promote and pursue the following objectives:
-
- to link the overall remuneration and in particular the incentive system for the Group's management and key people to the results actually achieved by the Company and the creation of new value for the Tinexta Group;
-
- to direct key corporate resources towards strategies aimed at the pursuit of medium/longterm results;
-
- align the interests of management with those of shareholders and investors;
-
- to further develop retention policies aimed at promoting loyalty in key corporate resources and encouraging them to remain with the Company or the Tinexta Group;
-
- to further develop attraction policies towards talented managers and professional service providers to continue to develop and strengthen Tinexta's key and distinctive skills.
The Plan envisages a single cycle for the free allocation of options for the purchase and possible subscription of the Company's ordinary shares. Specifically, for each option assigned, the recipients have the right to purchase and possibly subscribe, against payment to the Company of the exercise price, one share of Tinexta S.p.A.
The number of options to be awarded to each Beneficiary was set by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, evaluating the expected contribution to the implementation of the strategy and the achievement of the objectives of new value creation, taking into account the strategic importance of the position held and the importance of the activities carried out within the Company and the Group. In particular, as part of the Plan, the Board of Directors assigned to the Chief Executive Officer, on 23 June 2020, 200,000 options.
The options, in the number granted to each Beneficiary, will become vested options, and will therefore be exercisable by the Beneficiaries, after a three-year vesting period and only on the achievement of specific performance objectives linked to the EBITDA reported in the consolidated financial statements of the Company at 31 December 2022.
The number of vested options upon achievement of the objectives shall be calculated based on the following table:


| EBITDA from the Company's consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2022 |
% of Vested Options |
|---|---|
| For values higher than 100% (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
100% of the options awarded |
| For values of 80% or higher and 100% or lower (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
In proportion to the achievement of the objective |
| For values lower than 80% (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
0% of the options awarded |
The awarded options must be exercised by and no later than 31 December 2024.
The exercise price will be calculated, as per the Plan Regulation, by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, based on the arithmetic average of the official prices recorded by the Company's Shares on the Euronext Milan market in the six months before the option award date.
In the event of failure to reach the minimum objective of 80% of EBITDA compared to the reference budget approved, the options granted will lapse and must be considered to all intents and purposes extinguished. If a value between 80% and 100% of the target EBITDA is achieved, the vested options will be assigned in proportion to the achievement of the objective. Lastly, for EBITDA values higher than the budget value, the number of vested options may not exceed that of the options assigned at the start of the Plan (cap).
A period of unavailability of 20% of the shares purchased is envisaged, following the exercise of the vested options, for a period of 3 years from the date on which the Beneficiary received the shares. This duration of the lock-up, also in consideration of the three-year vesting period by which it is preceded, is deemed consistent with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code in order to align the interests of management with the medium-long term interests of shareholders, as well as to achieve the goal of retaining the main managerial figures.


The time schedule for the operation of the 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan is shown below, giving an example of possible exercise of the vested options at the end of 20233 :
| 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |

Benefits

For the General Manager, in order to complete and enhance the overall remuneration package, the following benefits are recognized: company car for personal use, supplementary medical insurance, life and accident insurance (professional and non-professional), policy for permanent invalidity due to illness.

At the date of preparation of this Report, the Board of Statutory Auditors is composed as follows:
-
- Luca Laurini Chairman;
-
- Monica Mannino Standing Auditor;
-
- Andrea Bignami Standing Auditor.
The Shareholders' Meeting renewed the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors on 27 April 2021, for the 2021-2023 three-year period, and determined their remuneration, pursuant to Art. 2402 of the Italian Civil Code, divided between the Chairman and Statutory Auditors as follows:

The remuneration of the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors was confirmed in line with that paid to the outgoing Board of Statutory Auditors.
For the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, insurance coverage is provided for the liability deriving from the exercise of their office ("Directors and Officers").
6. The remuneration of Key Management Personnel
In line with the provisions of Art. 152-sexies, paragraph 1, lett. c) of Consob Regulation no. 11971 of 14 May 1999, as amended, Tinexta identifies as Key Management Personnel those individuals who have the power and responsibility, directly or indirectly, to plan, manage and control the Company's activities.


At the date of the Report, the Board of Directors, over the course of several meetings, identified 7 members of Key Management Personnel:
| Key Management Personnel | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CFO Tinexta S.p.A. | Oddone Pozzi | ||||
| CHRO Tinexta S.p.A. | Silvia Marinari | ||||
| Chief Executive Officer Comark | Marco Sanfilippo | ||||
| Chief Executive Officer Infocert | Danilo Cattaneo | ||||
| Chief Executive Officer Innolva | Valerio Zappalà | ||||
| Chief Executive Officer Tinexta Cyber | Marco Comastri | ||||
| Chief Executive Officer Warrant | Fiorenzo Bellelli |
The Remuneration Policy encourages Key Management Personnel to pursue the sustainable success of the Company and takes account of the need to have, retain and motivate people with the skills and professionalism required by the role they hold.
The remuneration of Key Management Personnel is approved by the Board of Directors on the proposal of the Tinexta's Chief Executive Officer, after obtaining the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, and consists of the following elements:



On the basis of the above, the variable component at target has an average incidence of approximately 55% on the average total remuneration of Key Management Personnel.
Fixed remuneration
The fixed remuneration of Key Management Personnel is determined on the basis of the "mission" of the role held and the relative responsibilities assigned and is sufficient to remunerate the services even if the variable component is not paid due to failure to achieve the of performance objectives.
Short-term variable remuneration (MBO)
Members of Key Management Personnel are recipients of the short-term incentive system for the year 2022, with the aim of motivate their actions and organizational behaviour towards achieving the company's strategic objectives in line with business priorities.
The objectives of the MBO Plan for Key Management Personnel are defined by the Chief Executive Officer, with the support of the Human Resources and Organization function, in line with the Company's Remuneration Policy and approved by the Board of Directors, with the opinion of the Remuneration Committee.
As already mentioned, the MBO Plan assigned to Key Management Personnel envisages a Performance Gate identified as 95% of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Tinexta Group, adjusted and net of the writedown of receivables, as approved in the 2022 Budget by the Board of Directors.
For the members of Key Management Personnel who are Chief Executive Officers of the Subsidiaries of Tinexta S.p.A., there is a specific case that overcomes the condition described above. In particular, if 100% of the budget EBITDA of the Subsidiary or group of companies is reached or exceeded, the bonuses will in any case be disbursed on the basis of performance with respect to the objectives assigned.
It is understood that failure to achieve the Group EBITDA objective in any event will result in the nondisbursement of the portion of the bonus associated with said objective. It should be noted that, for the Key Management Personnel of the Subsidiaries, the Group's EBITDA has a weight of 30% in the objectives sheet and that failure to achieve the Group EBITDA therefore substantially affects the amount of bonus accrued.
In general, the objectives assigned to Key Management Personnel are attributable, in line with the specific business needs and the type of role, to the following macro categories:


-
- Group economic and financial objectives;
-
- economic and financial objectives specific to the Company and/or function-role;
-
- objectives transversal to several Companies or inter-functional;
-
- objectives linked to annual strategic projects specific to the Company.
An example of a standard objective sheet for Key Management Personnel is shown below:

The bonus will be disbursed when an overall performance level of not less than 60% is reached (expressed as the weighted average of the individual objectives assigned by their percentage weight) and will vary according to the degree of achievement of the targets assigned to the individual objectives according to performance curves and pay-outs defined in advance.
In the event of performance exceeding the defined objectives, the disbursable amount cannot be greater than 133% of the bonus at target, while the achievement of the objectives at the threshold level requires the recognition of 80% of the bonus.
The bonus accrued will be in a monetary form and paid in a lump sum following the approval of the 2022 Financial Statements by the Shareholders' Meeting.


Long-term variable remuneration
The Company has two long-term incentive plans, based on Stock Options, assigned to Key Management Personnel:
-
- 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan: assigned, among others, to 5 members of Key Management Personnel
-
- 2021-2023 Stock Option Plan: assigned, among others, to 2 members of Key Management Personnel
Each beneficiary can be the beneficiary of only one Stock Option Plan.
2020-2022 Stock Option Plan
In line with the provisions for the Chief Executive Officer, Key Management Personnel also have the option of participating in the 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan.
The 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan for Key Management Personnel is the same plan assigned to the Chief Executive Officer. For a detailed description of the operating mechanisms and performance objectives, please refer to the paragraph in the section dedicated to the long-term remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, which describes the operating logic of the Plan assigned in terms of frequency of allocation of the options (single cycle), vesting period (3 years), performance objective (EBITDA at 31 December 2022), exercise period of the vested options (31 December 2024), lock-up period (3 years for 20% of the shares purchased).
2021-2023 Stock Option Plan
The Shareholders' Meeting held on 27 April 2021 approved the long-term incentive plan, called the "2021-2023 Stock Option Plan".
The Plan has characteristics that mirror those of the 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan: in fact, there is only one cycle for the assignment of options free of charge and each option assigned to the Beneficiary confers the right to purchase and possibly subscribe, against payment to the Company of the exercise price, one share of Tinexta S.p.A., with regular dividend rights.
The number of Options to be awarded to each member of Key Management Personnel was set by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, evaluating the contribution to the implementation of the strategy and the expected achievement of the objectives of


new value creation of each Beneficiary, taking into account the strategic importance of the position held and the importance of the activities carried out within the Company and the Group.
The options vest after a vesting period of 3 years and only upon achievement of the performance objective related to EBITDA, as stated in the Company's consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023.
The number of vested options upon achievement of the objectives shall be calculated based on the following table:
| EBITDA from the Company's consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023 |
% of Vested Options |
|---|---|
| For values higher than 100% (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
100% of the options awarded |
| For values of 80% or higher and 100% or lower (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
In proportion to the achievement of the objective |
| For values lower than 80% (with respect to the approved reference budget value) |
0% of the options awarded |
The recipient must exercise the vested options by and no later than 31 December 2025.
On the basis of the Regulation, the exercise price will be calculated by the Board of Directors, after hearing the opinion of the Remuneration Committee, based on the arithmetic average of the official prices recorded by the Company's Shares on the Euronext Milan stock market in the six months before the option award date.
In the event of failure to reach the minimum objective of 80% of the consolidated EBITDA of the approved budget in the financial year ended 31 December 2023, the options granted will lapse. If a value between 80% and 100% of the target EBITDA is achieved, the vested options will be assigned in proportion to the achievement of the objective. Lastly, for EBITDA values higher than the budget value, the number of vested options may not exceed that of the options assigned at the start of the Plan (cap).
70% of the shares purchased as a result of the exercise of the vested options will be immediately available to the beneficiaries, while 15% of the shares purchased will be subject to a lock-up period of 12 months from the date on which the shares were received, following the exercise of the vested


options; the remaining 15% of the shares purchased will be subject to a lock-up period of 24 months from the date on which the shares were received.
The time schedule for the operation of the 2021-2023 Stock Option Plan is shown below, giving an example of possible exercise of the vested options at the end of 20244 :

Benefits
For Key Management Personnel, the benefits are defined in line with the practices of the reference remuneration markets and with the forecasts of collective agreements, where applicable, in order to complete and enhance the overall remuneration package, taking account of the roles and/or responsibilities assigned. Specifically, the following can be attributed: company car for personal use, supplementary medical insurance, life and accident insurance coverage (professional and nonprofessional). Exceptionally, based on stringent relocation needs related to the assignment, a housing benefit may be recognized.
7. Claw-back clauses
For all variable remuneration - both short and long term - a claw-back clause has been defined, which can be activated if objective circumstances emerge from which the data, on the basis of which the accrual of the disbursement of the bonus is verified, were manifestly erroneous or intentionally altered and/or in the event of serious violations of the law, of the Code of Ethics and of company regulations,
4 For more details in relation to the 2021-2023 Stock Option Plan, please refer to the Information Document already made available to the public pursuant to Articles 114-bis of Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998 ("CLF") and 84-bis, first paragraph, of the Regulation for Issuers.


and/or in the event of fraudulent behaviour or gross negligence of the beneficiary to the detriment of Tinexta or one of the Group Companies.
The clause establishes that the Company may withhold all or part of the portion of the bonus unlawfully due with consequent definitive extinction of all rights in this regard, or request the return, in whole or in part, of the portion of the premium unduly received, net of legal withholdings, also by offsetting it against any amount due for any reason by the Company.
Tinexta will be able to recover the above-mentioned sums paid within the statutory limitation period as regards the MBO Plan, and within 3 years from the end of the plan as regards the existing Stock Option Plans.
For more details on the claw-back clauses defined for the 2020-2022 Stock Option Plan and the 2021- 2023 Stock Option Plan, please refer to the respective Information Documents, published and available on the company's website.
8. Termination of the term of office and/or employment
At the date of this Report, the Chief Executive Officer also holds the position of General Manager by virtue of a permanent employment contract. Please note that in the event of early termination by the Company without just cause and/or revocation and/or non-renewal and/or in the case they were to resign from both roles on the request of the Company, on the basis of agreements already in place, an amount will be paid, as an incentive to leave, equal to three years' total pay received as General Manager. No agreements have been entered into which take effect, are modified or are extinguished in the event of a change of control of the Company or a request for resignation following a takeover bid or a public exchange offer.
With regard to the liquidation of short-term incentives, the Company adopts the criterion of paying the amount accrued on the basis of the achievement of performance objectives, provided that the Beneficiary is in force at the time of payment and not resigning, unless individually agreed. The 2020- 2022 Stock Option Plan and the 2021-2023 Stock Option Plan also provide for the loss of the rights assigned in the event of voluntary resignation by the Beneficiary, dismissal by the Company for just cause or justified reason or in case of violation by the Beneficiary of non-competition obligations.
With reference to the payments envisaged in the event of termination of office or termination of the relationship of a member of Key Management Personnel, in the event of a change in the Company's shareholding structure or a change in the corporate framework such as to result in cancellation and/or


change in the organisational role covered, the possible termination of the employment relationship at the initiative of the company that may result from it, unless in the case of dismissal for just cause, must take place according to the terms established by the applicable individual and collective agreements, to which one year' salary may be added.
9. Non-competition agreements
The Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of the Company has undertaken not to carry out, for a period of one year after the termination of the employment relationship, on their own or directly, throughout the European Union, any type of activity that may be in competition with that carried out by the Company. In return for this commitment, the Company has undertaken to pay the Company's Chief Executive Officer and General Manager a total amount equal to the sum of the annual gross fixed emoluments due to them both as Chief Executive Officer and Director, including the variable portion calculated on the basis of the average amount received in the last three years.
For Key Management Personnel, the Company has the option of entering into non-competition agreements ex ante or ex post, i.e. during the hiring phase, during the course of the employment or at the end of the same, if the Company feels such need.
10. Other forms of remuneration
Tinexta reserves the right to recognize discretionary bonuses with a non-recurring and exceptional nature, in no case exceeding the maximum amount equal to one year of fixed remuneration, in the following cases: (i) to attract resources with high managerial seniority in the labour market, and/or with specific skills considered critical for the business, subject to passing the probationary period; (ii) to reward the additional contribution made with respect to ordinary work in the event of special projects/transactions of particular strategic importance for the Group, which arose during the year and were not already considered for the purposes of the payment of the variable short-term incentive term. These bonuses will be paid only in continuity of the existing relationship with the beneficiary.
If the allocation of discretionary bonuses concerns a member of Key Management Personnel, the Remuneration Committee will carry out its advisory and propositional function in support of the resolution of the Board of Directors.

The table below shows a comparison between the change in the remuneration paid to the Chief Executive Officer, the economic performance of the Group (in terms of revenues, operating result and shareholders' equity) and the change in the average gross annual remuneration of employees other than the parties whose remuneration is represented by name in this section of the Report, benchmarked on Tinexta's full-time employees Each figure is provided with respect to a time span of three years (2019-2021), since the Company made use of the transitional regime introduced by the new Regulation for Issuers at the time of first-time application. After four years from the entry into force of the provision, the information requested will be provided on the entire five-year period, in line with the guidelines on this point expressed by the European Commission in the draft Guidelines on the drafting of the Remuneration Report.

| Role (% change) | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chief Executive Officer | +29 | 0 | 0 | ||
| Company Performance (mln €) | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | ||
| Revenues | 375 | 270 | 259 | ||
| Operating profit | 57 | 53 | 48 | ||
| Shareholders' equity | 244 | 174 | 149 | ||
| Tinexta employees (% change) | 2021 | 2020 | 2019 | ||
