Remuneration
The Remuneration Policy adopted by Pirelli (“Policy”) has been defined in line with the recommendations provided by the Corporate Governance Code. The Policy aims to attract, retain and motivate persons with the professional qualities required to pursue the objectives of the Company.
The Policy, based on the principle of the pay for performance, has been defined also in order to align the interests of Management with those of Shareholders, pursuing the priority objective of creating sustainable value, in the medium to long term period, by establishing an actual and verifiable link, between remuneration, on the one hand and the performance of the individuals and Pirelli on the other.
REMUNERATION STRUCTURE
The structure of the Management remuneration, which is defined also on the basis of domestic and International benchmarks prepared by Companies specializing in executive compensation, consists of three main elements:
Gross
annual fixed
component
Annual
variable component
(MBO)
medium-to-long
term variable
component (LTI)*
intended for rewarding the performance of Pirelli Group during the 2018-2020 period.

GROSS ANNUAL FIXED COMPONENT
The fixed component shall be established on the basis of the significance of the position, professional seniority, skills required to the individual to act in the role, or on the basis of the liabilities, of the performance achieved over time, as well as the performance of the package of comparison relating to the position held by the individual.
ANNUAL VARIABLE COMPONENT (MBO)
The MBO plan is extended to the whole Management and is directed to reward performance of the beneficiary in the short term.
The accrual of the variable annual component is subject to the achievement of a financial condition of access (so-called “on/off”), defined in relation to the role covered by the beneficiary.
MEDIUM-TO-LONG TERM VARIABLE COMPONENT (LTI)
The LTI plan is extended to the whole Management (without prejudice to specific cases such as, for example, the Manager of the Internal Audit Department) and it is directed to reward the performance of the period 2018-2020 of Pirelli Group.
In particular, the plan provides for an incentive subject to the achievement of multiannual objectives and determined as a percentage of the gross annual fixed remuneration perceived by the beneficiary at the date on which the participation of this latter in the plan was established. This incentive percentage grows in relation to the role and takes account of the reference benchmark of each role.
The LTI plan is a cash plan and, therefore, it does not grant stock-options, but a cash incentive. A part of the abovementioned incentive is linked to the market performance of Pirelli & C. shares.
