Due to the Covid-19 emergency, and therefore on the basis of the key principles for the protection of the health of Shareholders, employees, representatives and consultants of the company, and, more recently, in compliance with Legislative Decree No. 18 of March 17, 2020, participation at the Shareholders' Meeting shall take place only through the designated agent as per Article 135 undecies of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998 ("CFA"), according to the manner outlined below, without the physical attendance of shareholders, and access to the Meeting shall therefore be denied to all shareholders or proxies other than the aforementioned designated agent.
As regards attendance at the Shareholders' Meeting by Directors, Statutory Auditors, representatives of the Independent Auditors and the designated agent, the Company will make use of the technical tools that will allow these parties to participate via conference call, should the epidemic situation require it, or in any case make it preferable to protect the health of the participants.
RIGHT TO ATTEND AND VOTE
The right to attend the Shareholders' Meeting and the right to vote is guaranteed by communication to the company by an intermediary of the accounting records at the conclusion of the seventh day before the date fixed for the Shareholders' Meeting in single call, i.e. April 20, 2020 (record date). Those who hold shares after that date, based on the registrations on the accounts, will not have the right to attend or vote at the Shareholders' Meeting. The communication of the intermediary must be received by the Company by the end of the third trading day before the date fixed for the

Shareholders' Meeting (therefore, by April 24, 2020). The right to attend and vote at the Shareholders' Meeting remains valid if the communication is sent to the Company after April 24, 2020, but before the beginning of the Shareholders' Meeting.
PARTICIPATION AT THE SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING AND ASSIGNING OF PROXY TO THE DESIGNATED AGENT
Pursuant to Art. 106 of Decree Law No. 18 of March 17, 2020 (the so-called "Cura Italia" Decree), participation in the Shareholders' Meeting by those who have the right to vote is allowed exclusively through the designated agent.
The Company has therefore appointed Computershare S.p.A. - with offices in Milan, via Mascheroni No. 19, 20145 - to represent its Shareholders pursuant to Article 135-undecies of the CFA and the cited Decree Law (the "Designated Agent"). Shareholders who wish to attend the Shareholders' Agent must therefore grant the Designated Agent a proxy - with voting instructions - on all or some of the proposed resolutions on the items on the agenda using the specific proxy form, prepared by the Designated Agent in agreement with the Company, available on the Company's website at https://www.wiit.cloud/it/, in the section "Investors - Shareholders' Meeting".
The proxy form with voting instructions must be submitted following the instructions on the form itself by the end of the second market day open prior to the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e. by April 27, 2020, and within the same deadline the proxy may be revoked.
The proxy, thus conferred, shall take effect only for those proposals in relation to which voting instructions have been given.
It should also be noted that the Designated Agent may also be conferred mandates or subdelegations pursuant to Article 135-novies of the CFA, in derogation of Article 135-undecies, paragraph 4 of the CFA, exclusively through the proxy form, in accordance with the methods and terms outlined on the aforementioned website.
In view of the limitations that may arise due to health requirements, the participation in the Shareholders' Meeting of the persons entitled to attend (the members of elected corporate boards (i.e. Directors and Statutory Auditors), the Secretary in charge and the Designated Agent) may also take place by means of telecommunications (even exclusively) in the manner individually communicated to them, in compliance with the applicable regulations for this eventuality.
The Designated Agent will be available for clarification or information at 02 46776821 or at the following e-mail address [email protected].
The shares in relation to which proxy is conferred, also partially, are included for determining the proper constitution of the Shareholders' Meeting. In relation to the proposals for which no voting instructions have been conferred, the shares are not included for the calculation of the necessary majority and of the share capital percentage required to approve the motions. The communication to the Company by the appointed intermediary certifying the right to attend the Shareholders' Meeting is obligatory; without this communication, therefore, the proxy is invalid.
For the purposes of clarity, voting may not take place by correspondence or electronic means.
SUPPLEMENTATION OF THE AGENDA AND PROPOSALS ON MATTERS ALREADY ON THE AGENDA OF THE SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING;
In accordance with Article 126-bis of the CFA, Shareholders who represent, even jointly, at least one-fortieth of the share capital may request, within ten days of publication of this call notice (i.e. by April 7, 2020), supplementation to the matters on the Agenda, indicating in the request the further matters to be included on the Agenda, or proposals on matters already on the Agenda. Within the aforementioned period of ten days, Shareholders making a proposal must present a report on the matters to be added to the Agenda, or justification for adding further proposals to be presented on matters already on the Agenda. The request, together with a proof of ownership of the holding, must be presented in written form to the email address [email protected].
Supplementation of the agenda is not permitted for those matters on which the Shareholders' Meeting is to pass resolutions, as prescribed by law, on proposals of the Directors, or in relation to a project or report prepared by the Board. In relation to any supplementation to the matters that the Shareholders' Meeting must consider, or presentation of further proposals on existing matters on the agenda, notice is given, in the same manner established for the publication of the call notice, at least fifteen days before the date fixed for the Shareholders' Meeting, i.e. by April 14, 2020. The reports concerning further proposals on matters already on the Agenda will be made available to the public according to the means established by Article 125-ter, paragraph 1 of the CFA along with publication of the notice of presentation.
RIGHTS TO SUBMIT QUESTIONS
In accordance with Article 127-ter of the CFA, Shareholders may submit questions on the matters on the agenda, also before the Shareholders' Meeting, to the e-mail address [email protected].
Those entitled to vote must provide information enabling them to be identified, accompanied by the relevant communication from the intermediary proving ownership of the right to vote; it is however not necessary where the intermediary has sent to the company the communication for attendance at the Shareholders' Meeting. The deadline for submitting these applications is April 22, 2020. For questions which are sent to the Company by this deadline, an answer will be given to the designated representative during the Shareholders' Meeting at the latest.
A response will not be provided, even at the Shareholders' Meeting, to questions submitted before the meeting, where the information requested has already been made available by the company in "Question and Answer" format on the company website (https://www.wiit.cloud/it/) in the section "Investors - Shareholders' Meeting", or where responses have already been published in the same section. The company may provide a single reply to questions with the same subject matter.
