The new board member, who accepted the appointment and will remain in office until the next Shareholders' Meeting of Snam, does not meet the independence requirements set out in art. 148, subsection 3 of the Legislative Decree no. 58 of 1998 and art. 7 of the Corporate Governance Code.

The Company's Board of Directors also appointed Qinjing Shen as a member of the ESG Committee, thus replacing Yunpeng He.
