Other resolutions of the Board of Directors

In order to comply with the recent amendments to the Euronext Growth Milan Issuer Regulation ("Issuer Regulation EGM") as per the notice from Borsa Italiana S.p.A. no. 43747 dated November 17, 2023, effective as of December 4, with specific reference to the provisions of Article 6-bis regarding the appointment of independent directors, considering the removal of the obligation on the Euronext Growth Advisor to assess the independence requirements of candidates for the position of independent director for all companies already admitted to the Euronext Growth Milan market, the Board of Directors has, among other things, resolved to repeal the "Procedura per sottoporre all'Euronext Growth Advisor la valutazione dell'amministratore indipendente" previously adopted by the Company.

Therefore, in compliance with the provisions of Article 6-bis of the Issuer Regulation EGM currently in force, aligned with the regulations applicable to companies listed on the regulated market, the responsibility for assessing the independence requirements after the appointment and subsequently once a year remains with the Board of Directors of SEIF. This assessment will be based on information provided by the interested party or available to the Company. For this purpose, the Board of Directors will identify the quantitative and qualitative criteria to be considered for conducting this annual evaluation, which will be valid until the expiration of the current mandate. The Board of Directors will provide timely communication to the market regarding this evaluation and its outcome.

It is also announced that today the Company's Board of Directors also resolved to grant the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Cinzia Monteverdi, all necessary powers to convene an extraordinary meeting in order to resolve the necessary amendments to the current bylaws aimed at aligning them with the new provisions of the Issuer Regulation EGM.

The Company also informs that the internal reporting channel, known as whistleblowing channel, has been activated in implementation of the Whistleblowing Procedure (the "Procedure"), in compliance with the provisions of Legislative Decree no. 24/2023, which incorporates into the Italian legal system the regulations on whistleblowing set forth by Directive (EU) 2019/1937. The Procedure allows, in confidentiality for both the whistleblower and the individuals involved, reporting of violations of national or European Union legal provisions that harm the public interest or the integrity of the Company.

The Procedure is available at www.seif-spa.it in the Governance/Information and Procedures Whistleblowing section.
