Campari strives to distribute a stable amount of dividend per ordinary share during a certain number of years and revises it afterwards to reflect the Group's achievements. Special voting shares do not confer any economic rights.

Furthermore, the Chairman pointed out to the meeting that, as per the date on which the dividend will be made payable, the Board of Directors will be required - with due observance of the information then available - to assess whether Campari will be able to continue to pay its outstanding debts following dividend payments.

The Chairman pointed out that the appropriation of the profit will be determined in accordance with article 28 of the articles of association of Campari.

The total amount of the dividend distributed and, consequently, the residual amount of the profits carried

forward, will vary according to the number of shares entitled and these amounts will be defined when the dividend is actually paid on the basis of the shares outstanding at the coupon detachment date (therefore excluding the Company's own shares in the portfolio at that date).

  • to allocate the profit for the financial year 2023 of €288,186,894 as follows:
    1. to distribute a dividend of €0.065 per ordinary share outstanding, except for own shares held by the Company at the coupon detachment date (for information purposes, based on the 29,617,742 own shares held on 31 December 2023, as well as on the new 69,667,738 ordinary shares issued following the successful placement in January 2024, the total dividend is €78.1 million);
    2. to carry forward the residual amount (for information purposes, amounting to €210.1 million on the basis of the outstanding shares mentioned above);
  • to pay the above dividend per share on 24 April 2024, with detachment of coupon no. 4 of 22 April 2024 (in accordance with the Italian Stock Exchange calendar) and a record date for the dividend on 23 April 2024.

After the announcement, the Chairman informed the meeting that the resolution had been adopted. The Chairman then proceeded with the next agenda item.

6. Approval of the Remuneration Policy (voting item).

The Chairman proposed to the meeting to approve, upon recommendation of the Remuneration and Appointment Committee, a new Company's remuneration policy. The current Company's remuneration policy was adopted by the EGM held in September 2020, in the context of the re-domiciliation of the Company: pursuant to Dutch and European legislation, each company shall submit the remuneration policy to a vote by the general meeting at every material change and in any case at least every four years.

The proposed remuneration policy builds upon the current remuneration policy and aims to provide a compensation structure that allows Campari to attract and retain the most highly qualified executive talent and to motivate such executives to achieve business and financial goals that create value for shareholders and other stakeholders in a manner consistent with our core business and leadership values.

More in detail, as to the executive directors' remuneration, the proposed remuneration policy is based on the

DRAFT

following four basic elements:

  1. the fixed remuneration which compensates for the individual's experience, skills, duties, responsibilities and the contribution of the individual within the Company;
  2. the short-term incentive ("STI") which aims to ensure that the executive directors are well incentivized to achieve the group performance targets in the shorter-term. The Remuneration and Appointment Committee each year will select and propose to the Board of Directors the financial performance measures to be used as targets and determines their relative weights. To support the Company's strategic objective of growth in an organic and sustainable way and focus on profitable growth segments, such performance measures are typically (i) profit, (ii) marginality, and (iii) operating working capital;
  3. the long-term incentive ("LTI") which aims to provide incentives for the executive directors to achieve growth results in the medium and long term and align their interests with the pursuit of the priority objective of sustainable creation of value for shareholders. The Company's LTI for the executive directors will consist of a share-based payment, achieved by a combination of performance share units ("PSU") and restricted stock units ("RSU"), with a prevalence of the latter over the former, as granted following approval by the general meeting. Both PSUs and RSUs are conditional on: (i) a three-year vesting period; and (ii) continuous engagement. The PSUs are also conditional on performance achievements;
  4. other benefits, such as D&O and life insurance.

Furthermore, according to the proposed remuneration policy, and in line with the current one, executive directors who have provided the Company with extraordinary value during a long-standing managerial period of at least 10 years, will be additionally eligible for an additional last mile incentive in case of achievement of additional financial and operational objectives over the last years of their term. The last mile incentive payout can be both a fixed cash amount or a variable cash based on PSUs. In the latter case the vesting period will be equal to the performance period (which will be set for a minimum period of three years).

The proposed remuneration policy, instead, does not contain any change with respect to the non-executive directors' remuneration, compared to the current remuneration policy that has been approved by the EGM held in September 2020.

The Chairman gave the meeting the opportunity to ask questions on this item and concluded that there were no questions.
