The application must be submitted in writing and delivered to the registered office for the attention of the Head of Corporate Affairs, either through the postal service or via email to the certified email address azioni@pec.generali.com.

Any additions to the agenda or the submission of additional draft resolutions for items already on the agenda will be notified in the same manner as that required by law for the notice of call, within the deadlines specified in applicable regulations.
Shareholders requesting additions to the agenda are required to draft a report stating the reasons for the draft resolutions regarding the new items that they propose, or the reasons for the additional draft resolutions on items already on the agenda. This report must be submitted to the Board of Directors by the deadline for the submission of requests for additions. The report will be made available to the public, together with any evaluations by the Board of Directors, when the notice of additional items is published.
Individual proposals for resolutions
Due to the fact that the intervention at the Annual General Meeting is to be exclusively through the Designated Representative, in accordance with Article 126-bis.1.iii of the CLFI, parties with voting rights may, no later than 8 April 2026, individually submit proposals for resolutions on the items on the agenda, by sending them via email to the Designated Representative’s address generali@pecserviziotitoli.it, and to azioni@pec.generali.com, entering the words “General Meeting 2026 – individual proposal for resolutions” in the subject line of the email.

Pertinent proposals that have been correctly submitted will be made available to the public by the Company on the website www.generali.com, in the section Governance / AGM 2026, and with the other applicable procedures, by 10 April 2026.
The deadline for the submission of said proposals, set to coincide with the deadline for the publication of requests for additions, enables parties interested in submitting individual proposals to consider the material published by the Company in relation to the items on the agenda and, at the same time, allows the Designated Representative to adapt, where necessary, the form for granting proxies pursuant to Article 135-undecies and sub-proxies pursuant to Article 135-novies of the CLFI, so that parties entitled to vote may, for the purposes of issuing their voting instructions, assess, simultaneously and in time, all of the requests and proposals put forward.
Appointment of the Board of Statutory Auditors
With regard to the appointment of the Board of Statutory Auditors, which will take place on the basis of lists of candidates, the reader is referred to s. 37 of the Articles of Association, published in the Governance section of the Company website, and is advised of the following:
Legitimate right to present lists.
Shareholders are entitled to present lists of candidates if they represent a total of at least 0.5% of the company’s share capital, alone or jointly with others. Ownership of the minimum interest required for submission of lists is determined on the basis of the shares registered in the shareholder’s name on the date on which the lists are filed with the Company. Shareholders with voting rights, the companies directly or indirectly owned by them, and the companies directly or indirectly owned by the same party may join forces to present and vote for one single list; if this principle is violated, their support for the lists shall not be taken into consideration.
Relationships.
Pursuant to s.144-sexies par. 4.b of the Regulation enacting CLFI, concerning governance of issuers adopted by the Consob with resolution no. 11971 of 14 May 1999 as subsequently amended (Issuers’ Regulation) and to CONSOB communication no. DEM/9017893 of 26 February 2009, it is recommended that shareholders who intend to present minority lists should file, with the list and the additional documentation required by s. 37 of the Articles of Association, a declaration attesting the absence of relationships, direct or indirect, as per s. 144-quinquies of the Issuers’ Regulation, with the shareholder owning the relative majority. The declaration shall also specify any relationships that may exist, if significant, with the relative majority shareholder, if identifiable, and the reasons why these relationships have not been considered to determine the existence of such connections, or it shall declare the absence of any such relationships.
Methods and deadlines for presentation and publication of lists.
The lists, signed by the entitled Shareholder(s) and including the information about the shareholders submitting them, details of the total percentage shareholding held by them, and the documentation required pursuant to s. 37 of the Articles of Association must be filed at the Company’s registered office, to the attention of the Head of the Corporate Affairs, or sent to the certified e-mail address: azioni@pec.generali.com within 30 March 2026, by 5.00 pm. If on the date of expiry of the above term only a single list or lists presented by interconnected shareholders have been filed, lists may be presented up until 2 April 2026. In this case, Shareholders who alone or together with other Shareholders collectively represent at least 0.25% of the shares with voting rights at the ordinary general meeting are entitled to present lists. The lists will be made available to the public by 2 April 2026 at the company’s registered office, at Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and on the company website, www.generali.com, under Governance / AGM 2026. The certificate proving ownership of the minimum shareholding required to submit lists must be evidenced by a specific communication produced by the depositary intermediary and sent to the certified e-mail address azioni@pec.generali.com, and may also be produced after filing, but not later than the closing date for the publication of the lists, i.e. 2 April 2026; otherwise the list will be deemed not to have been submitted.

Entitlement to attend the meeting
Entitlement to attend the Annual General Meeting and to exercise voting rights is demonstrated by a statement that must be issued to the Company by an authorised intermediary in accordance with the relevant accounting records for the person that holds voting rights. The statement is issued by the intermediary based on the evidence as at the record date (14 April 2026), corresponding to the seventh market trading day before the date of the meeting.
Acquisitions or disposals made after that date will not be considered for the purpose of establishing the right to vote; therefore, those who became shareholders after that date will not be entitled to attend or vote. Owners of shares that have not yet been dematerialised may only attend the Annual General Meeting if their share certificates have first been filed with a party authorised to input them into the computerised system for subsequent communication by the authorised intermediary.
Attendance by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting is governed by current law and regulations, and by the provisions of the Articles of Association and the Annual General Meeting Regulation, which are available at the registered office of the Company and on its website.
Meeting attendance
In accordance with the Decree, pursuant to Article 106, entitled parties will only be permitted to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting through the designated representative pursuant to Article 135-undecies of the CLFI.

The proxy does not cover draft resolutions for which no voting instructions have been given. The proxy and voting instructions may be revoked within the same deadline and using the same procedures as those used to grant the proxy.
The statement issued to the Company by the intermediary, certifying the right to attend the meeting and exercise voting rights, is necessary: in the absence of this statement, the proxy shall be deemed null and void. The Designated Representative may, in lieu of the original, deliver or send a copy of the proxy form to the Company, attesting under their own responsibility that the copy is a true copy of the original and that the identity of the delegating party is correct. Pursuant to applicable legislation, the Designated Representative must retain the original proxy forms and details of any voting instructions received for one year from the end of the Annual General Meeting.
The proxy may also be granted with an electronic document signed electronically pursuant to article 21.2 of Legislative Decree no. 82 of 7 March 2005, and sent to the certified email address generali@pecserviziotitoli.it.
Without prejudice to the need for a proxy to be granted to the Designated Representative, the Designated Representative may also be granted sub-proxies pursuant to article 135-novies of the CLFI, also in derogation of the provisions of Article 135-undecies.4, of the CLFI.
