After two years from the granting of the shares of the First Tranche, having verified the occurrence of the further conditions set forth in the Plan rules – i.e.  (i) achievement of the predetermined Regulatory Solvency Ratio thresholds and (ii) lack of occurrence of any malus events -  the Board of Directors today approved  the grant of the remaining 50% of the shares related to the Second Tranche and resolved for the relevant capital increase in order to perform the granting of  n. 268,193 shares, including the additional shares calculated based on the amount of the overall dividends distributed during the additional two years of deferral based on the aforementioned “dividend equivalent” mechanism. A portion of 50% of the shares granted under the Second Tranche will be subject to a lock up period for one year from the grant as per the Plan rules.
