REPORT CONCERNING THE POLICY FOR REMUNERATION AND RECOMPENSE PAID FINANCIAL PERIOD 2020

Report concerning the policy for remuneration and recompense paid

in accordance with Article 123-ter TUF and Article 84-quater Listing Regulations

Traditional management and control model

Issuer: Unieuro S.p.A.

Website www.unieurospa.com, section "Corporate Governance/Shareholders' Meetings/Meeting 2020

Financial Period 2020

Approved by the Board of Directors on 6 May 2020

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE REMUNERATION AND APPOINTMENTS COMMITTEE

Dear Shareholders,

The Report concerning the policy for remuneration and recompense paid that we present to you sets forth the Remuneration Policy of Unieuro S.p.A. ("Unieuro" or "Company") for the future financial period year ending 28 February 2021, as well as the compensation paid to Directors, Statutory Auditors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities during the previous financial year which ended on 29 February 2020.

Such Report, drawn up in accordance with the governance model adopted by the Company and in accordance with the recommendations of the Self-Regulation Code as well as with the applicable best practices, was approved by the Board of Directors on 6 May 2020 upon the proposal of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee ("Committee").

Unieuro's Remuneration Policy aims to attract, motivate and retain the most appropriate resources to successfully manage the company, supporting retention capacity and incentivising the achievement of strategic objectives so as to align the interests of top management with the primary objective of creating sustainable value for shareholders in the medium to long term.

In this regard, throughout the period that began with the listing of the Company on the STAR MTA-Segment, the Committee, having received the competent contribution of the Human Resources Department, has continuously and consistently promoted a Remuneration Policy divided into three important areas:

    1. establishing the correct balance between the fixed component and the variable component of management remuneration, giving greater weight to the variable component and, in that context, preferring the medium-long term component over the short-term one, aware that such economic elements need to be considered in light of the exceptional health situation mentioned below;
    1. constantly monitoring the remuneration positioning as concerns the Company's management, promoting a plan of targeted and progressive interventions to ensure realignment and adjustment of the relative remuneration treatment mindful of the reference market; and
    1. promoting and supporting sustainability related matters, in line with the growing expectations of the financial community as regards sustainable development, thus strengthening the Company's reputation for all stakeholders.

As regards the first item, in line with best market practices and as of 2017, Unieuro has concentrated on privileging the variable component of its management remuneration over the fixed one, by means of a combination of the MBO (Management By Objectives) plan and LTIP (Long Term Incentive Plan) which are effective and consistent with Group performance.

In light of the provisions of the Self-Regulation Code, on 7 February 2017, Unieuro approved a medium-long term incentive plan (LTIP 2018-2025) providing for the allocation to management of stock options rights in Company shares. The vesting date of this plan coincided with the closing date of the last financial year, 29 February 2020.

With reference to the MBO mechanism, it should be noted that as of current year, Unieuro has withdrawn the one-off discretionary payments option for management from the Remuneration Policy; such payments were initially designed to reward the achievement of specific objectives and strategic values.

With regard to remuneration positioning and bearing in mind the Italian Stock Exchange listing, the Company has already adjusted the remuneration treatment of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities. Since then, the Company has been attentive and constantly monitoring the remuneration dynamics of the reference market to remain in line with market trends, ensuring that remuneration treatment offered to top management maintains its attraction and retention force.

In view of the ever-increasing expectations of the financial community as concerns sustainable development, as well as the introduction of Remuneration Policy guidelines that are not strictly financial, as of the financial year that has just closed, Unieuro, has provided a new reference parameter for the purpose of determining the incentives envisaged under the MBO plan. Such parameter is the "Net Promoter Score", a criterion based on customer satisfaction as expressed in questionnaires submitted to customers. The introduction of this parameter is aimed at ensuring that Managers with Strategic Responsibilities focus their activity on customer satisfaction and retention.

Having reaffirmed the principles that have inspired Unieuro's Remuneration Policy, I believe it is my duty to clarify certain measures put in place in response to the health emergency we are currently experiencing and to underline how - with reference to the pursuit of long-term interests, considering the current emergency situation caused by the Covid-19 outbreak and the impact thereof which is not foreseeable with any sufficient degree of reliability - the pandemic could impact on the Company's performance. The Board of Directors has deemed it appropriate to postpone the definition of a longterm incentive plan term (LTIP) based on financial instruments in accordance with the principles of responsibility and sustainability that have always inspired Unieuro's choices. This decision was taken also to allow the Company to make a better reasoned assessment to fix indicators that effectively and efficaciously measure and evaluate management performance, given the uncertainty as to how the emergency will evolve.

In any event, the Board is still desirous to determine a medium-long term plan - and in particular a performance shares plan - and to submit these for approval at the Shareholders' Meeting, it is hoped no later than December 2020.

With regard to those plans currently in place and those bonuses currently accruing, I think it appropriate to highlight the gesture of solidarity recently announced by the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer and the management toward all our staff and workers that are making use of the welfare previsions.

Indeed, our Chief Executive Officer, Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli, has voluntarily waived his entire remuneration for the months of April and May 2020; the Board of Directors have each elected to reduce their remuneration by 20% for the months of April and May 2020; the entire company management has elected to reduce their remuneration in a percentage between 10% and 20%. In addition company management has opted to postpone the payment date of their short-term variable compensation (May 2020) accrued on achievement of the objectives set for the financial year as at 29 February 2020, to a more appropriate time considering the evolution of the socio-economic situation generated by the pandemic, the economic results and the financial situation of the Company. These acts show a highly appreciated joint initiative, which I am certain you will have taken into account and that you share its spirit.

Dear Shareholders, the above having been stated, the Remuneration Policy that we submit for your approval confirms the distinctive elements of the pursuit of a balanced pay-mix for the management remuneration package and the tying of the variable component to clear, predetermined performance objectives also with a view to sustainability. Therefore, we submit that the Policy is fully consistent with the pursued objectives, namely to attract, retain and adequately remunerate the company's key resources, so ensuring that value for shareholders is created in the medium-long term.

We take this opportunity to thank you in advance for the acceptance that we trust you will kindly express at the shareholders' meeting.

Marino Marin

a) Bodies or parties involved in the preparation, approval and implementation of the Remuneration Policy

The bodies or parties involved in the preparation and approval of the Remuneration Policy are indicated below, with a specification of their respective roles, together with the bodies or parties responsible for the proper implementation of said policy.

The Remuneration Policy is adopted according to a process that involves the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors and the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, in accordance with the rules and regulations in force and the principles set out in the Self-Regulation Code.

The remuneration of directors assigned with particular duties (including the Chairman and Vice Chairman) is determined by the Board of Directors upon proposal of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, in consultation with the Board of Statutory Auditors. The Shareholders' Meeting may set an overall amount for the remuneration of all the directors, including those assigned with particular duties.

For the sake of clarity, the provisions of Article 123-ter paragraph 3-bis of the TUF (as amended by Legislative Decree No. 49 of 10 May 2019), allow that Unieuro may, within the limits of the laws and regulations in force, temporarily derogate from its remuneration policy in exceptional circumstances. "Exceptional Circumstances" means those situations in which a derogation from the remuneration policy is deemed necessary to pursue long term interests and sustainability of the company overall, or to ensure its capacity to remain on the market. The process is summed up below.

Specifically, the Board of Directors, on the advice of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, having heard the Related Party Transaction Committee and in conformance with the Management of Related Party Transactions Procedure adopted by the Company, may, in the above-mentioned circumstances, derogate temporarily from those items of the Policy set forth in point e) below.

Shareholders' Meeting

With regard to remuneration, the Shareholders' Meeting:

  • pursuant to Article 2364, paragraph one, No. 3) of the Civil Code, decides the compensation of the members of the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors at the time of their appointment and for the entire duration the office is to be held, until such time as different provisions are determined at a Meeting;
  • pursuant to Article 123-ter: (i) paragraph 3-bis and paragraph 3-ter TUF, resolves by binding vote on the first section of the Report and (ii) sixth paragraph TUF, resolves by a nonbinding vote on the second section of the Report; and
  • pursuant to Article 114-bis TUF, resolves on any compensation plans based on shares or other financial instruments.

Board of Directors

With regard to remuneration, the Board of Directors:

  • sets the remuneration of Directors within the remit of that resolved by the Meeting;
  • in accordance with Article 2389, third paragraph Civil Code, sets the remuneration of directors tasked with specific duties, on proposal of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee having listened to the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors;
  • determines the Remuneration Policy based on the proposal of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, and is responsible for putting it into effect;
  • prepares any compensation plans based on shares or other financial instruments, with the assistance of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, submitting these plans for the approval of the Shareholders' Meeting in accordance with Article 114-bis TUF; and
  • implements any compensation plans based on shares or other financial instruments, with the assistance of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, upon authorisation of the Shareholders' Meeting.

Executive Directors

With regard to remuneration, the Executive Directors:

  • submit any compensation plans based on shares or other financial instruments to the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, or where appropriate assist the Remuneration and Appointments Committee with drawing up said plans;
  • provide the Remuneration and Appointments Committee with all useful information so as to enable the Committee to assess the adequacy and actual implementation of the general remuneration policy, with particular regard to the remuneration of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities.

Board of Statutory Auditors

With regard to remuneration, the Board of Statutory Auditors serves an advisory role, wherein it formulates the opinions required by the regulations in force and in particular expresses its opinion on proposals for the remuneration of Executive Directors. In expressing its opinion as mentioned above, it verifies the consistency of the proposals made by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee to the Board of Directors with the remuneration policy.

Auditing Firm

As provided for by Article 123-ter: (i) paragraph 8-bis TUF, the auditing firm shall verify that the directors have prepared the second section of the Report.

b) Remuneration and Appointments Committee

On 7 February 2017, the Board of Directors, in conformity with the corporate governance recommendations contained in the Self-Regulation Code, resolved, with effect from the Trading Start Date, to establish an Appointments and Remuneration Committee, approving the regulations for the operation of such committee.

a. Composition of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee

Following the renewal of the entire Board of Directors which occurred at the Shareholders' Meeting held on 18 June 2019, subsequently on 26 June 2019, the Board of Directors moved to appoint the members of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, and appointed: Gianpiero Lenza (nonexecutive director), Catia Cesare (director in possession of the requirements of independence indicated by the TUF and by the Self-Regulation Code) and Marino Marin (director in possession of the requirements of independence indicated by the TUF and by the Self-Regulation Code) in the role of Chairman. In light of the resignation presented by Gianpiero Lenza on 23 January 2020 from his office on the Company Board of Directors, the Board of Directors appointed Pietro Caliceti (director in possession of the requirements of independence indicated by the TUF and by the Self-Regulation Code) as a member of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee on 6 February 2020.

The Remuneration and Appointments Committee was established pursuant to principle 6.P.3 of the Self-Regulation Code, which provides that such committee shall be made up of independent directors, or alternatively, non-executive directors, the majority of whom must be independent (in this case the Chairman was appointed from the independent directors).

In conformity with principle 6.P.3. of the Self-Regulation Code, each component of the Committee shall possess expertise and experience in financial matters and remuneration policies.

In the current financial period, the Remuneration and Appointments Committee shall meet whenever necessary to ensure the correct and effective fulfilment of duties.

b. Responsibilities and operating methods of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee

The operation of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee is governed by the Regulation approved by the Board of Directors on 7 February 2017 - which can be consulted on the Issuer's website in the "Corporate Governance" section - with the most important provisions reproduced below.

In view of the Company's organisational needs, its mode of operation and the size of its Board of Directors, the Company has established a single committee for remuneration and appointments pursuant to Articles 5 and 6 of the Self-Regulation Code, which is responsible for making enquiries, providing advice and offering suggestions to the Board of Directors.

As regards remuneration, in accordance with the recommendations set out in Article 6 of the Self-Regulation Code, the Remuneration and Appointments Committee has the following responsibilities:

  • (i) making proposals to the Board of Directors for the establishment of a general policy for the remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, the General Manager and the other Managers with Strategic Responsibilities - also for the purposes of the preparation, by the Board, of the remuneration report to be submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting and periodically assessing the adequacy, overall consistency and actual implementation of the general policy on remuneration approved by the Board of Directors;
  • (ii) making proposals to the Board of Directors regarding the overall remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, the General Manager and the other Managers with Strategic Responsibilities, and for the establishment of the remuneration criteria for the Company's senior management, including the performance targets linked to the variable component of that remuneration;
  • (iii) monitoring the implementation of decisions taken by the Board of Directors, by verifying, in particular, the actual achievement of performance targets;
  • (iv) examining any share-based or cash incentive plans for Company employees and the policies for the strategic development of human resources.

The Remuneration and Appointments Committee is able to access the information and corporate functions necessary to carry out its duties, as well as avail itself of external consultants, within the limits established by the Board of Directors, in conformity with the provisions of application criterion 4.C.1., letter e) of the Self-Regulation Code.

Nevertheless, in accordance with Article 19 of the Articles of Association and Article 2389, paragraph 3, of the Civil Code, the Remuneration and Appointments Committee only performs advisory and recommendation functions, whereas the power to set the remuneration of the Directors assigned with specific duties remains with the Board of Directors, in consultation with the Board of Statutory Auditors, without prejudice to the power of the Shareholders' Meeting to decide the overall amount of the remuneration of all the directors, including those assigned with particular duties.

In conformity with the provisions of application criterion 6.C.6 of the Self-Regulation Code, no director can take part in the Remuneration and Appointments Committee meetings in which proposals are made to the Board of Directors regarding their remuneration, unless the proposals regard all members in general of the committees established within the remit of the Board of Directors.

At the very next Board of Directors meeting, the Chairman will report on the activities carried out by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee.

c) Names of any independent experts involved in the preparation of the Remuneration Policy

The Company has not used any independent experts for the preparation of the Remuneration Policy.

d) Principles and aims of the Remuneration Policy and any changes compared with the previous financial period

Also, in accordance with the Self-Regulation Code, the Remuneration Policy is mainly designed to:

  • attract, motivate and retain adequate human resources and skills to successfully pursue the Company's objectives;
  • to align the interests of management with those of the Company and its shareholders; and
  • to promote the creation of sustainable medium/long term values for the Company and for its shareholders.

In determining the Remuneration Policy, the Board of Directors has taken into account the following criteria in accordance with the provisions of the Self-Regulation Code:

  • the fixed component and the variable component are suitably balanced in view of the Issuer's strategic goals and its risk management policy;

  • there are maximum limits on the variable components of remuneration;

  • the fixed component is deemed sufficient to remunerate directors for their services in the event the variable component is not paid because of failure to reach performance objectives.

In order to pursue these objectives, under the Remuneration Policy the compensation of the Directors and the Managers with Strategic Responsibilities is determined on the basis of the following components:

  • (i) a fixed annual component, commensurate with the position and the commitment required;
  • (ii) a variable component, measured on the performance of the Company, in the form of equity, equity-based or cash-based incentive plans;
  • (iii) non-monetary benefits (fringe benefits), such as the provision of a company telephone, computer or vehicle, as well as participation in welfare and insurance plans that include:
    • a. for employees of the Company, ordinary welfare and social security protection (as per the applicable national collective bargaining agreement) and insurance coverage against the risk of death, permanent disability and temporary incapacity;
    • b. as far as Directors are concerned, insurance coverage in relation to the office held on the Board of Directors.
  • (iv) compensation payable as consideration for any non-compete obligations agreed with the Managers with Strategic Responsibilities.

With respect to the Remuneration Policy for the financial period ending on 29 February 2020: (i) the faculty to award a fixed bonus for the achievement of results having particular strategic significance was deleted on grounds that the "ordinary" variable component of remuneration correctly performs the function of rewarding the same results; and ii) clawback/malus clauses were added to the short term incentive system (MBO) as recommended under point f) of Article 6.C.1. of the Self-Regulation Code. For further information, see point e) below.

e) Description of policies concerning the fixed and variable components of remuneration, with particular regard to its relative weighting within the overall remuneration and the distinction between short-term variable components and medium/long-term variable components.

The policy concerning remuneration of the Directors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities are adequately balanced to ensure alignment between short-term growth objectives and the creation of sustainable value for the Company and its shareholders in the medium-long term.

In particular, the remuneration structure comprises the following components:

  • a fixed component that reflects the person's specific powers, positions, role and strategic responsibilities;
  • a variable component designed to remunerate expected short-term performance and medium/long-term performance.

The variable remuneration and the fixed annual components have different weightings according to the characteristics of the role in the company and the responsibilities held, in order to ensure the sustainability of company results and the creation of medium/long-term value for the shareholders.

Regarding Managers with Strategic Responsibilities, when determining the relevant Remuneration Policy, the Board of Directors take as a base starting point an assessment of the current contractually agreed remuneration with each Manager with Strategic Responsibilities, which includes, inter alia, benefits and variable short-term remuneration (MBO) connected to the achievement of individual or company performance targets set for each financial period, the payment of which is conditional upon executive's remaining with the Company for the relevant period, as better described below.

The variable part of the remuneration is therefore set in such a way as to:

  • take into account the requirement that a significant part of the remuneration of Executive Directors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities must be linked to economic results achieved by the Issuer and/or the achievement of targets set in advance by the Board of Directors;
  • ensure that the interests of the Executive Directors and Managers with Strategic Responsibilities are in line with the priority objective of creating medium/long-term value for the Company and its shareholders; and
  • retain and motivate staff holding the required qualities to manage the Issuer successfully, including through the use of retention conditions.

As indicated above, the variable component of the remuneration includes a short-term component (MBO) and a medium/long-term component which are described below.

Management By Objectives ("MBO")

The remuneration of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities provides for an annual variable component (MBO) – which is a significant amount in percentage terms in respect of gross annual income – connected to the achievement of an "entry gate" and individual and/or company performance objectives set for each financial period by the Board of Directors, the payment of which is conditional upon the Manager's remaining with the company for the relevant period.

The pay-mix2 - the weighting of the different components as a proportion of total remuneration paid excluding benefits (so-called annual total compensation) is provided below:

2 The graph at page 20 does not take into account the awarding of subscription rights as concerns the medium-long term incentive plan, which shall be submitted at the Shareholders' Meeting for approval as indicated in the below paragraph (Long Term Incentive Plan).

The current MBO system envisages payment of a variable monetary component (cash bonus), payable upon achievement of the 100% of targets, in an amount determined for each manager in his/her individual contract of employment. The recognition of the bonus is conditional upon the manager's remaining in office for the reference period and reaching the performance targets which are given predetermined weighting, and specific identifiable entry levels. The bonus effectively due is calculated according to a linear progression system, bearing in mind the actual performance achieved with respect to the performance targets.

The MBO system for the year 1 March 2020 - 28 February 2021, as approved by the Board of Directors on 6 May 2020, upon the proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, and by way of continuation of that provided for in the MBO applicable to the Financial Period closed on 29 February 2020, is structured on the basis of the following parameters and criteria:

  • the performance objectives are connected to targets with reference to (i) EBITDA3 (common to all Managers with Strategic Responsibilities) ("EBITDA Performance Target") and (ii) the reduction of the net financial position or net debt (depending on the corporate role performed) ("NFP Performance Target") and (iii) Net Promoter Score, a criterion based on customer satisfaction as resulting from questionnaires obtained from to customers ("NPS Performance Target");4
  • the Target Bonus payable if 100% of the targets are reached and determined individually in the contracts of employment - is broken down according to the above-mentioned weighting of the "EBITDA Target Bonus" (70%), the "NFP Target Bonus" (20%) and in the "NPS Target Bonus" (10%);

3 See note 1 in table at page 12

4 The final determination of achievement of the Net Promotor Score objective is made by way of adjustment of the results of those surveys collected online through a "proprietary" platform, and subtracting the number of "detractors" from the number of "promoters".

  • the accrual of and payment of the EBIDTA Target Bonus, the PFN Target Bonus and the NPS Target Bonus are conditional upon (i) the reaching of predetermined entry levels, below which levels the beneficiary shall not have the right to receive any compensation and (ii) the beneficiary being employed by the Issuer at the closing date of the reference period, except in the event of termination by Company of the employment for objective reasons in which case the bonus will be readjusted proportionally ratione temporis.

Specifically, if the effective consolidated performance in the relevant period relating to EBITDA ("EBITDA Actual Performance") is:

  • a) below 80% of the EBITDA Performance Target, then the EBITDA Target Bonus would not be due, not even pro rata, as the entry level has not been achieved;
  • b) equal to 80% of the EBITDA Performance Target, then 50% of the EBIDTA Target Bonus would be due;
  • c) between 81% and 99% of the EBITDA Performance Target, then in addition to the amount indicated in point b) above - 2.5% of the EBITDA Target Bonus would be due for each plus percentage point of the EBITDA Actual Performance above 80% of the EBITDA Performance Target;
  • d) 100% of the EBITDA Performance Target, then an amount equal to the EBITDA Target Bonus would be due;
  • e) between 101% and 120% of the EBITDA Performance Target, then a sum in addition to the EBITDA Target Bonus would be due, equal to 2.5% of the EBITDA Target Bonus for each plus percentage point of the EBIDTA Actual Performance between 101% and 120% (inclusive) of the Performance Target and equal to 3% for each plus percentage point of the EBIDTA Actual Performance above 120% of the EBITDA Performance Target.
  • the NFP Target Bonus is due exclusively on condition that 70% of the EBIDTA Performance Target is achieved. On the failure to achieve such threshold, the right to receive the NFP Target Bonus will not accrue, in spite of reaching the Performance Target for the net financial position/net debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the effective consolidated performance in the reference period relating to the net financial position/net debt ("NFP Actual Performance") is:
    • a) below 80% of the NFP Performance Target, then the NFP Target Bonus would not be due, not even pro rata, as the entry level has not been achieved;
    • b) equal to 80% of the NFP Performance Target, then 50% of the NFP Target Bonus would be due;
    • c) between 81% and 99% of the NFP Performance Target, then in addition to the amount indicated in point b) above - 2.5% of the NFP Target Bonus would be due for each plus percentage point of the NFP Actual Performance above 80% of the NFP Performance Target;
    • d) 100% of the Performance Target, then an amount equal to the NFP Target Bonus would be due;
    • e) between 101% and 120% of the NFP Performance Target, then a sum in addition to the NFP Target Bonus would be due equal to 2.5% of the NFP Target Bonus for each plus percentage point of NFP Actual Performance between 101% and 120% (inclusive) of the Performance Target and equal to 3% for each plus percentage of the NFP Actual Performance above 120% of the NFP Performance Target.
  • the NPS Target Bonus is due exclusively on condition that 70% of the EBIDTA Performance Target is achieved; in the event that this threshold is not reached, the right to receive the NPS Target Bonus will not accrue, despite the achievement of the Target Performance relating to the customer satisfaction level. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the actual consolidated performance of the reference period relative to customer satisfaction ("NPS Actual Performance") is:
    • a) less than 80% of the NPS Performance Target, then the NPS Target Bonus would not be recognized, not even pro rata, as the related entry threshold has not been achieved;
    • b) equal to 80% of the NPS Performance Target, then an amount equal to 50% of the NPS Target Bonus would be due;
    • c) between 81% and 99% of the NPS Performance Target, then in addition to that indicated in point b) above -, 2.5% of the NPS Bonus Target for each plus percentage point of NPS Actual Performance greater than 80% of the NPS Performance Target would be recognized;
    • d) 100% of the Performance Target, then an amount equal to the NPS Target Bonus would be due;
    • e) between 101% and 120% of the NPS Performance Target, then an additional sum would be recognized, - equal to 2.5% of the NPS Target Bonus for each plus percentage point of the NPS Actual Performance between 101% and 120% (inclusive) of the NPS Performance Target, and equal to 3% for each plus percentage point of the NPS Actual Performance above 120% of the NPS Performance Target.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the MBO system envisages a total cash bonus cap of 150% of the maximum amount payable in the event that 100% of the objectives are achieved as defined in the individual employment agreement for each Manager with Strategic Responsibilities.

For the sake of clarity, it is to be noted that the EBITDA means by the consolidated EBITDA adjusted (i) of the non-recurring expenses / (income) and (ii) of the effects deriving from the adjustment of the revenues for guarantee extension services net of the costs estimated for the provision of the service assistance, as a consequence of the change in the business model for directly managed assistance services.

In the case of:

  • (i) extraordinary transactions that concern the Company
  • (ii) events or circumstances, including those that are exogenous (e.g. COVID-19), of an exceptional or extraordinary nature
  • (iii) changes to the legislative or regulatory context

that impact significantly on all or part of the targets, the Board of Directors, having heard the opinion of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, may revaluate the overall fairness and coherence of the incentive plan, and may make reasoned alterations thereto - upon the proposal of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee - as concerns the assigned targets/entry thresholds provided for above.

For both the short-term variable component and medium-long term components, specific malus and clawback clauses are provided as recommended by point f Article 6.C.1 of the Self-Regulation Code and, in particular:

  • the malus clause allows the variable component to be reduced or not paid out at all in the event that, in the period between accrual of the variable element of recompense and actual payment thereof, it is found that the allocation was determined either based on data or information that transpires to be manifestly wrong or in the presence of fraudulent conduct or gross negligence on the part of the recipient.
  • The clawback clause allows the Company to demand restitution of all or part of monetary incentive paid out, within 3 years of the said payment in the scenario in which the allocation was determined either based on data or information that transpires to be manifestly wrong or in the presence of fraudulent conduct or gross negligence on the part of the recipient.

Long Term Incentive Plan

As concerns the achievement of long term goals, mindful of the current Covid-19 outbreak emergency and the impact that the pandemic could have on Company performance, which as of the date of writing are not sufficiently foreseeable with any degree of reliability, the Board of Directors has deemed it opportune to postpone the determination of a long term incentive plan (LTIP) based on financial instruments. This decision is in keeping with the principles of responsibility and sustainability that underpin the choices of the Issuer. Indeed, uncertainty as to how the emergency will evolve is likely to thwart the establishing of any indicators that could effectively and efficaciously measure and evaluate management performance.

In any event, the Board is desirous to draw up a medium-long term plan - in particular a performance share plan - for submission and approval at the Shareholders' Meeting within December 2020, provided that the conditions created by the impact of the current Covid-19 emergency so permit. In particular, the long-term incentive plan would be subject to prior consideration by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee. Thereafter, should the relative proposal be approved by the Company Board of Directors, it would then be submitted for approval at the Shareholders' Meeting.

It is emphasised that the documentation for publication for the purposes of the above-mentioned Shareholders' meeting would contain certain of the information provided for in the Consob Scheme, amongst which, the vesting period and those provisions concerning the maintenance of the financial instruments in the portfolio, which are unable to be clarified at this time.

*****

Vice Chairman

The above provisions applicable to remuneration of the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall likewise apply also to the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors should one be appointed.

Directors

The compensation of the Directors is structured in such a way as to attract and motivate the best professionals and skills, to ensure the best possible performance of their duties and the achievement of the goals of the Remuneration Policy.

All Directors receive fixed compensation determined at the Meeting at the time of their appointment and applicable for the duration of their office (until such time as the Meeting makes different provision), that ensures adequate remuneration for their services and commitment to the Company. Each Director is also entitled to be reimbursed expenses incurred in the carrying out of their functions, whereas, no attendance allowance is provided for participation in board meetings.

I. Executive Directors

The remuneration of Executive Directors is adequately balanced to ensure alignment between shortterm growth objectives and the sustainable creation of value for shareholders in the medium-long term.

As at the date of this Report, the sole Executive Director is Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli, who is the Chief Executive Officer. Attention is drawn to the fact that, based on the agreed terms of his subordinate employment contract with Issuer - which provides for an all-inclusive annual gross remuneration, which is deemed to also compensate any additional offices or Company duties, Mr Nicosanti Monterastelli has expressly waived any right to any compensation resolved in his favour for the roles of member of the Board of Directors and as Chief Executive Officer.

Fixed component

The fixed component of Executive Directors' compensation is set by the Shareholders' Meeting (i) for the office of director, on the basis of the amount of compensation available for distribution established by the Meeting pursuant to Article 2389 paragraph 1 Civil Code and (ii) for any particular duty, as may be carried out by the Board of Directors in consultation with the Board of Statutory Auditors in accordance with Article 2389 third paragraph Civil Code. The Shareholders' Meeting may set an overall amount for the remuneration of all of the Directors, including those assigned particular duties.

Variable component

As regards the variable component of the Executive Directors remuneration, Executive Directors are entitled to participate in the short-term incentive plan mentioned above, as well as in any long-term incentive plan based on financial instruments as are approved by the Shareholders' Meeting within current year end. In continuance with past practice, Executive Director, Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli, shall participate in any short term incentive plan and long term incentive plan in his capacity of Manager with Strategic Responsibilities.

The non-monetary benefit recognised to Executive Directors is the so-called Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance coverage ("D&O").

II. Non-executive and independent directors

As at the date of this Report, the independent Directors are: Michele Bugliesi, Pietro Caliceti, Catia Cesari, Paola Elisabetta Galbiati, Marino Marin and Monica Luisa Montironi. Stefano Meloni is deemed to be an independent Board Director in accordance with the TUF and non- independent under the Self-Regulation Code since he is Chairman of the Board of Directors. Alessandra Stabilini is a nonexecutive Board member.

In accordance with the principles of the Self-Regulation Code and, in particular, the implementing rule set out in principal 6.C.4., the gross annual remuneration of non-executive Directors and Independent Directors is not connected to the achievement by the Company of economic targets and is, instead, commensurate to the commitment required from each of them to perform their roles.

The non-monetary benefit recognised to Non-executive Directors is the D&O (Directors and Officer) liability insurance ("D&O").

III. Compensation for participation in committees

The remuneration for participation in committees may be established by the Shareholders' Meeting.

On 26 June 2019, the Board of Directors resolved to pay an annual gross sum of: (i) €10,000 to each member of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, of the Control and Risks Committee, and of the Related Party Transaction Committee; (ii) €14,000 to the Chairman of the Control and Risks Committee; and (iii) Euro 13,000 per committee to the Chairman of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee and the Chairman of the Control and Risks Committee as well as reimbursement of expenses and the benefit of the insurance policy provided as per company practice, it being clarified that that total compensation shall be proportionate to the actual number of months spent in office.

IV. General Manager

As at the date of this Report, the Company has not appointed a General Manager.

V. Managers with Strategic Responsibilities

As at the date of this Report, the Issuer has identified 6 Managers with Strategic Responsibilities from among the persons who, in the opinion of the Issuer, have the power and responsibility, directly or indirectly, for the planning, management and supervision of Unieuro's activities.

They are the managers who currently fill the positions of (i) Chief Operations Officer (ii) Chief Omnichannel Officer (iii) Chief Corporate Development Officer and (iv) Chief Commercial Officer (v) Chief Financial Officer and Manager Responsible for Preparing Accounting Documents, plus the Chief Executive Officer Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli, who is the employee responsible for coordinating the other Chief officers.

The remuneration of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities includes an annual variable component (MBO) – which is a significant amount in percentage terms of gross annual income – connected to the achievement of an "entry gate" and individual and company performance objectives set for each financial period by the Board of Directors, the payment of which is conditional upon the Manager remaining with the Company for the reference period (see point (d), Part One, Section II).

In any event, the variable component makes up a significant part of the pay-mix and is aimed at recognising and valuing those results that have been achieved in a sustainable manner over time, whilst aligning management conduct to the corporate strategy, thus creating value for shareholders. Specifically, the average pay-mix of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities breaks down as follows:

  • Fixed remuneration 52.8%

Standing Auditors are entitled to reimbursement of board, lodging and travel expenses incurred in the carrying out of their functions. They are not entitled to receive any variable component of remuneration, such as any bonus, attendance allowance or any other incentives or benefits save for the benefit of the D&O insurance policy coverage.

f) Policy on non-monetary benefits

Refer to points d) and e) above

i) Information showing the consistency of the Remuneration Policy with the pursuit of the longterm interests of the company and its risk management policy

Without prejudice to the long term incentive plan as may be approved by the Meeting, the Company's Remuneration Policy states that the established performance objectives and the method of payment of the variable component must be consistent with the risk management policy adopted by the company, taking into account the risks assumed by the Company in the performance of its business and resources - in terms of capital and liquidity - required to undertake the activities it pursues.

On this subject, you are referred to the contents of the preceding letters d) and e).

As regards the Chief Executive Officer, no specific "golden parachute" agreements have been entered into connected to the termination of his role and – as regards the CEO's subordinate employment relationship with the Issuer – said CEO does not receive additional payments to those provided by law and the collective bargaining agreements in the event of dismissal.

Non-competition agreements may be entered into with Managers with Strategic Responsibilities within the remit of the provisions and limits of the laws in force.

m) Information on the existence of insurance, medical care or pension provisions in addition to mandatory coverage.

In line with best practices, D&O liability insurance is provided to cover third-party civil liability for actions of the corporate bodies and the Managers with Strategic Responsibilities in the course of their duties.

o) Indication of remuneration policies of other companies as may be used as a point of reference and criteria used for the selection of these companies.

SECTION II

This section, as shall be subject to the non-binding vote of the Meeting in accordance with Article 123 ter, sixth paragraph TUF, is made up of two parts:

  • (i) the first part provides a brief deceptive overview of the compensation relative to the 2020 Financial Period of those intended recipients of the remuneration Policy;
  • (ii) the second part, sets out the above-mentioned compensation in table form and includes Table No. 1 and Table No. 2 as provided for under Annex 3A Scheme 7-ter of the Listing Regulations which concerns investments held, whether directly or indirectly, in the Company or in other connected companies controlled by the Directors, the Auditors and other Managers with Strategic Responsibilities (as well as persons closely related thereto, meaning any spouse not legally separated and minor children) in conformance with Article 84-quater, fourth paragraph of the Listing Regulations.

The above-mentioned compensation is a continuance of that determined for the previous financial period in accordance with the principles followed by the Company as concerns the remuneration of members of the administrative and control bodies and of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities. Such principles are in line with the recommendations set forth in the Self-Regulation Code.

Part One

a. Compensation of the Board of Directors

Fixed remuneration

On 18 June 2019, the Shareholders' Meeting resolved to award total annual gross compensation of €580,000 for the entire Board of Directors.

On 26 June 2019, the Board of Directors resolved to distribute the above-mentioned compensation pot as follows: (i) €43,750 for each non-executive director; (ii) €10,000 for the members of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee and the Control and Risks Committee and the Related Party Transaction Committee; (iii) €14,000 for the Chairman of the Control and Risks Committee; (iv) €13,000 per committee to the Chairman of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee and of the Related Party Transaction Committee. As concerns the remuneration of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, following the appointment of Mr Stefano Meloni as Chairman on 24 February 2020 and in light of the resignation from office of Bernd Erick Beetz, the compensation of €130,000, as was resolved by the Board of Directors on 26 June 2019, was uplifted to €160,00 gross per annum, such amount fully within the total limit of remuneration established for the entire Board of Directors by the Meeting.

In accordance with the agreements governing the Chief Executive Officer's subordinate employment relationship with the Issuer and in particular the fact that his annual gross remuneration, is agreed to be inclusive of all compensation, including that for additional duties and positions in the company, said CEO has waived the right to compensation awarded to him for holding the position of executive director. By virtue of such agreements and in particular the fact that the remuneration paid to the CEO relates to his subordinate employment managerial position, the amount paid to him in Financial Period 2020 is included in the compensation paid to Managers with strategic responsibilities and represented in detail in the attached tables.

The Directors have been granted the right to reimbursement of expenses incurred for the purposes of the carrying out of their offices.

Variable remuneration

The members of the Board of Directors have not participated in the Stock Option Plan, the MBO system or other forms of variable remuneration. It should be noted that the Executive Director, Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli, participated in the Stock Option Plan in his capacity of Manager with Strategic Responsibilities.

Non-monetary benefits

The non-monetary benefits awarded to members of the Company's Board of Directors include an insurance policy which has been entered into to cover the civil liability of directors and managers, the co-called Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance ("D&O").

b. Compensation of the Board of Statutory Auditors

On 18 June 2019, the Shareholders' Meeting resolved to appoint a Board of Statutory Auditors comprising three standing members and two alternate members, for a term of three financial periods (thus until the approval at the Shareholders' Meeting of the financial statements as at 28 February 2022): Such board is comprised as follows: Giuseppina Manzo (Chairman), Maurizio Voza (standing auditor), Federica Mantini (standing auditor), Valeria Francavilla (alternate auditor) and Davide Barbieri (alternate auditor).

Fixed remuneration

On 18 June 2019, the Shareholders' Meeting resolved to grant compensation to members of the Board of Statutory Auditors for the entire period of their term of office in the overall amount of €60,000, specifying that this compensation is commensurate with the number of months they effectively remain in office. At the same Shareholders' Meeting the above-mentioned compensation was broken down as follows: (i) a sum of €26,000 to the Chairman, in addition to pension contributions, (ii) a sum of €17,000 to each standing Statutory Auditor, with pension contributions in addition.

Variable remuneration and non-monetary benefits

Members of the Board of Statutory Auditors are not entitled to any variable remuneration or nonmonetary benefits.

c. Compensation of Managers with Strategic Responsibilities

Fixed remuneration

The Managers with Strategic Responsibilities have received the fixed component of the remuneration determined by their respective employment contracts, including any payments due under contract or by law.

During the financial period ending 29 February 2020, the 5 Managers with Strategic Responsibilities (including Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli who is also currently Chief Executive Officer) were paid a total of € 1,410,014.43 in fixed remuneration.

Variable remuneration

Managers with Strategic Responsibilities participated in the MBO scheme, the Stock Option Plan.

In this regard, total gross variable remuneration paid out was Euro 1,408,750 – relating the MBO scheme applicable to financial period ending 28 February 2019 and actually paid out in the financial period ending 29 February 2020.

In relation to the Stock Option Plan, a total of 840,850 Option Rights were granted on 29 February 2020, (as defined in the registration document published by the Company and available on the Unieuro website www.unieurospa.com/it/investor-relations/prospectus). Of these Option Rights, 566,584 were granted to Executives with Strategic Responsibilities. In this regard, you are reminded that the above-mentioned Plan provides for the grant to the interested class of beneficiaries of free non-transferable inter-vivos option rights, giving the option holder the right to acquire ordinary shares in Unieuro by way of a subscription for newly issued shares or a purchase of existing stock held by the Company (at the Company's discretion). The total number of options under the Plan are 1,032,258. Any exercise of the granted option rights and the subscription to the 1,032,258 shares earmarked for the Plan will dilute the shareholding of the existing shareholders by approximately 4.9%.

You are reminded that, as provided for in the Stock Option Plan rules, upon the expiration of each year (subsequent to that closed on 29 February 2020), in which the beneficiary has exercised or all part of any share option right, said beneficiary is entitled also to receive a monetary quota in an amount equal to the amount of dividend which he/she would have received on the Stock Option Plan as of approval date up to the 29 February 2020, with exercise of the rights attached to the shares obtained in the year in question upon exercise of the relative share option right.

It should be noted that Giancarlo Nicosanti Monterastelli held the Office of Chief Executive Officer for the entire financial period 2019/2020. In virtue of his role as CEO and in consideration of the agreements concerning his subordinate employment relations with the Issuer, namely that Mr Monterastelli's gross annual remuneration would be deemed omni-comprehensive, thus inclusive of compensation relating to any additional offices or company functions as may be carried out by him, said CEO waived his right to the compensation resolved for his office of Executive Director carried out in the financial year 2020.

In particular, the compensation effectively paid to the Chief Executive Officer in the financial period 2019/2020 (from 1 March 2019 to 29 February 2020) by way of short-term variable component was €402,500, mindful that, on 8 May 2019, the Board of Directors, having considered the proposal of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, ascertained the achievement of the specific target conditions as well as the partial achievement of the specific overperformance conditions.

For more detail, as to the variable remuneration in favour of each Executive with Strategic Responsibilities, please refer to the attached tables.

Non-monetary benefits

As regards non-monetary benefits, it is noted that all Managers with Strategic Responsibilities are awarded a series of benefits, including – according to the provisions of the applicable national collective bargaining agreement and individual employment contracts – a motor vehicle for personal and business use, contributions for mandatory social security funds and supplementary medical cover, insurance coverage against death, injury and illness relating to professional and non-professional activity, D&O liability insurance, and in some cases a house allowance.

Payments provided in the event of resignation from office or termination of employment and noncompetition agreements

There are no agreements providing for the payment of any monetary consideration in the event of resignation of a Director, Auditor or Manager with Strategic Responsibilities before expiration of the term of office.

The Company has non-competition agreements in place with Managers with Strategic Responsibilities in accordance with Article 2125 Civil Code. This entails the payment of compensation, determined in relation to the duration and breadth of the agreed non-compete, restrictions, at a fixed rate while employed by the Company, with guaranteed final balance payment on the date of termination of the employment relationship to be paid provided that the total amount paid up to that moment is less than a predetermined percentage of the annual gross remuneration provided for the last year in which the employment agreement is in place.
