LEGAL REFERENCES
Article 126-bis
(Integration of the agenda of the shareholders' meeting and presentation of new proposed resolutions)
Shareholders, who individually or jointly account for one fortieth of the share capital may ask, within ten days of publication of the notice calling the shareholders' meeting, or within five days in the event of calling the meeting in accordance with article 125-bis, subsection 3 or article 104, subsection 2, for the integration of the list of items on the agenda, specifying in the request, the additional items they propose or presenting proposed resolution on items already on the agenda. The requests, together with the certificate attesting ownership of the share, are presented in writing, by correspondence or electronically, in compliance with any requirements strictly necessary for the identification of the applicants indicated by the company. Those with voting rights may individually present proposed resolutions in the shareholders' meeting. For cooperative companies the amount of the capital is determined by the statutes also in derogation of article 135.
Integrations to the agenda or the presentation of further proposed resolutions on items already on the agenda, in accordance with subsection 1, are disclosed in the same ways as prescribed for the publication of the notice calling the meeting, at least fifteen days prior to the date scheduled for the shareholders' meeting. Additional proposed resolutions on items already on the agenda are made available to the public in the ways pursuant to article 125-ter, subsection 1, at the same time as publishing news of the presentation. Terms are reduced to seven days in the case of shareholders' meetings called in accordance with article 104, subsection 2 or in the case of a shareholders' meeting convened in accordance with article 125-bis, subsection 3.
The agenda cannot be supplemented with items on which, in accordance with the law, the shareholders' meeting resolved on proposal of the administrative body or on the basis of a project or report prepared by it, other than those specified under article 125-ter, subsection 1.
Shareholders requesting integration in accordance with subsection 1 shall prepare a report giving the reason for the proposed resolutions on the new items for which it proposes discussion or the reason relating to additional proposed resolutions presented on items already on the agenda. The report is sent to the administrative body within the final terms for presentation of the request for integration.

If the administrative body, or should it fail to take action, the board of auditors or supervisory board or management control committee fail to supplement the agenda with the new items or proposals presented in accordance with subsection 1, the court, having heard the members of the board of directors and internal control bodies, where their refusal to do so should prove to be unjustified, orders the integration by decree. The decree is published in the ways set out by article 125-ter, subsection 1.
Article 135-decies
(Conflict of interest of the representative and substitutes)
Conferring proxy upon a representative in conflict of interest is permitted provided that the representative informs the shareholder in writing of the circumstances giving rise to such conflict of interest and provided specific voting instructions are provided for each resolution in which the representative is expected to vote on behalf of the shareholder. The representative shall have the onus of proof regarding disclosure to the shareholder of the circumstances giving rise to the conflict of interest. Article 1711, second subsection of the Italian Civil Code does not apply.
In any event, for the purposes of this article, conflict of interest exists where the representative or substitute:
has sole or joint control of the company, or is controlled or is subject to joint control by that company;
is associated with the company or exercises significant influence over that company or the latter exercises significant influence over the representative;
is a member of the board of directors or control body of the company or of the persons indicated in paragraphs a) and b);

This article shall also apply in cases of share transfer by proxy.
Article 135-undecies
(Designated representative of a listed company)
Unless the Articles of Association decree otherwise, companies with listed shares designate a party to whom the shareholders may, for each shareholders' meeting and within the end of the second trading day prior to the date scheduled for the shareholders' meeting, including for callings subsequent to the first, a proxy with voting instructions on all or some of the proposals on the agenda. The proxy shall be valid only for proposals on which voting instructions are conferred.
Proxy is conferred by signing a proxy form, the content of which is governed by a Consob regulation. Conferring proxy shall be free of charge to the shareholder. The proxy and voting instructions may be cancelled within the time limit indicated in subsection 1.
Shares for which full or partial proxy is conferred are calculated for the purpose of determining due constitution of the shareholders' meeting. With regard to proposals for which no voting instructions are given, the shares are not considered in calculating the majority and the percentage of capital required for the resolutions to be carried.
The person designated as representative shall any interest, personal or on behalf of third parties, that he or she may have with respect to the resolution proposals on the agenda. The representative must also maintain confidentiality of the content of voting instructions received until scrutiny commences, without prejudice to the option of disclosing such information to his or her employees or collaborators, who shall also be subject to confidentiality obligations. The party appointed as representative may not be assigned proxies except in compliance with this article.
By regulation pursuant to subsection 2, Consob may establish cases in which a representative failing to meet the indicated terms of Article 135-decies may express a vote other than that indicated in the voting instructions.
Article 135-undecies-1
(Designated representative of a listed company)
The bylaws may provide that participation in the assembly and the exercise of voting rights occur exclusively through the representative appointed by the company pursuant to Article 135-undecies. The appointed representative may also be given delegations or sub-delegations pursuant to Article 135-novies, in derogation of Article 135-undecies, paragraph 4.
The submission of proposals for deliberation are not permitted at the assembly. Notwithstanding what is provided in Article 126-bis, paragraph 1, first period, those entitled to vote may individually submit proposals for resolutions on agenda items or proposals permitted by law up to the fifteenth day preceding the first or only convocation of the assembly. These resolution proposals are subsequently made available to the public on the company's website within two days following the deadline. The validity of the individual resolution submissions is contingent upon the company receiving the communication provided for in Article 83-sexies.
The right to ask questions referred to in Article 127-ter is exercised only before the meeting. The company shall provide answers to the questions received at least three days before the meeting.
Paragraph 1 also applies to companies admitted to trading on a multilateral trading market.
Civil Code
Art. 2393 (Directors liability action)
The liability action against the directors is started upon resolution of the meeting also when the company is in liquidation.
The resolution concerning the directors' liability can be adopted on the occasion of the discussion of the financial statements, although not indicated in the item of the agenda, when it concerns circumstances occurred in the same financial year.
The liability action can also be started upon resolution of the Supervisory Board adopted by two thirds of its members.
The action must be started within five years from the termination of office of the director.
The resolution concerning the directors' liability action implies the revocation from office of the directors against whom it is started, provided that it is approved by at least one fifth of the share capital. In this case the meeting provides for their replacement.
The company can waive the directors' liability action and can compromise, provided that the waiver and the settlement are expressly approved by the meeting and provided also that a minority of shareholders representing at least one fifth of the share capital does not vote against or, in case of issuers of financial instruments widely distributed among the public, at least one twentieth of the share capital or the different quantity provided for by the by-laws for the exercise of the directors' liability action pursuant to first and second paragraph of art. 2393-bis.
