In order to ensure continuity in the management of the Company, the Board proposes to set the Directors’ term of office at three financial years, this term expiring on the date that the Shareholders’ Meeting is convened to approve the financial statements for the year ended on December 31, 2025.

Dear Shareholders,

You are invited to resolve as follows:

Item 5

Appointment of the Directors

Dear Shareholders,

Pursuant to Article 147-ter of the CLF and Article 17.3 of the By-laws, the Board of Directors is appointed by the Shareholders’ Meeting on the basis of the slates presented by the Shareholders (and, if necessary, by the Board of Directors), on which the candidates must be listed with a progressive number.

The slates presented by Shareholders must be filed in the manner indicated in the notice calling the Meeting at least twenty-five days prior to the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting in single call. Considering that this term ends on April 15, 2023, which is a Saturday, to facilitate the presentation of the slates by the Shareholders, the term is extended to Monday April 17, 2023, the first working day after the legal deadline of April 15, 2023.

Each Shareholder may, severally or jointly, submit and vote on a single slate only. Controlling persons, the subsidiaries controlled by them and companies under joint control may not submit or participate in the submission of other slates, nor can they vote on them, either directly or through nominees or trustees. As used herein, subsidiaries are those pursuant to Article 93 of the CLF Each candidate may stand on a single slate, on penalty of disqualification. Only those Shareholders who, severally or jointly, represent at least 0.5% of the share capital are entitled to submit a slate, as established by Consob Resolution No. 76 of January 30, 2023. Ownership of the minimum holding needed to submit slates is determined with regard to the shares registered to the Shareholder on the date on which the slates are filed with the Company. The related statement provided by the authorised intermediary may be submitted after the filing, provided that submission takes place by the deadline set for the publication of the slates by the Company (i.e. by 6:00 p.m. (CET) on April 19, 2023).

Article 17.3 of the By-laws contains specific provisions on the composition of the slates aimed at ensuring compliance with the rules on gender balance on corporate bodies. Under the law at least two-fifths of the Director positions to be appointed, rounded up, must be filled by the less-represented gender, except when the number of the Board members is equal to three, in such case the number is rounded down to the lower unit, as indicated by Consob. Slates submitted by Shareholders for the Board of Directors that contain three or more candidates must include at least one member of the less-represented gender. Slates competing to appoint the majority of the members of the Board of Directors, made up of more than three candidates, must include at least two fifths of the candidates belonging to the less-represented gender, rounding up to the higher unit.

On the assumption that the number of the Board members, in line with the Board proposal to the Shareholders’ Meeting, is equal to nine, the number of Board members belonging to the less represented gender shall be four.

Therefore, Shareholders who want to present a slate competing to appoint the majority of the members of the Board of Directors must include three candidates belonging to a gender different from that of the other candidates, if the slate contains six candidates; two candidates belonging to a gender different from that of the other candidates, if the slate is made up of five candidates.

If the Shareholders’ Meeting decides that the number of Board members to be appointed should be lower than nine, the directors to be appointed will be taken from the slates according to the progressive order in which they were indicated on the slate.

Together with the filing of each slate, on penalty of inadmissibility, the following documents shall also be filed:

statements of each candidate accepting their nomination;

a curriculum vitae of each candidate containing adequate personal and professional information;

a statement from each candidate affirming that they meet the requirement of independence set forth by Article 148, paragraph 3 of the CLF, as well as the absence of any grounds making them ineligible or incompatible for the position and that they meet the integrity requirements;

the identity of the Shareholders who have presented such slates and the overall percentage of ownership of Eni share capital held.

Under the terms of Article 2383 of the Italian Civil Code, the candidates must submit a declaration that there are no reasons for ineligibility as provided for in Article 2382 of the Italian Civil Code and that they have not been restricted from the position of director in an EU Member State.

It is also recommended that the statements contain the attestation on whether they meet the independence requirements pursuant to Recommendation 7 of the Corporate Governance Code.

According to Consob Communication No. DEM/9017893 of February 26, 2009, Shareholders other than those who severally or jointly hold a controlling or majority shareholding, should file, along with their slates:

a statement certifying the absence of direct or indirect relationships with Shareholders who individually or jointly hold a controlling or relative majority interest, pursuant to Articles 147-ter, paragraph 3 of the CLF and 144-quinquies of the CONSOB Resolution no. 11971 of 14 May 1999, as amended, (Issuer Regulations);

a statement specifying any relationships, if significant, and the reasons why these relationships are not considered determinant to the existence of the aforementioned relationships.

The slates, together with the abovementioned information, will be made available at the Company’s registered office, on the Company’s website and through Borsa Italiana at least twenty-one days prior to the date set for the Shareholders’ Meeting in single call, i.e. by April 19, 2023.

The independent candidates shall be expressly indicated in each slate.

In this regard, the Board of Directors of Eni, under the terms of Recommendation 15 of the Corporate Governance Code, has defined guidelines on the maximum number of positions in the administrative or auditing bodies in other companies that can be considered compatible with effective performance of the tasks of director of the company, taking into account the commitment deriving from the role held.

Shareholders who submit a slate for appointment of the Board of Directors are also asked to ensure that the slate submitted is accompanied by all the information necessary to enable the shareholders to express their votes knowledgeably, including an indication of any ability of the candidate Directors to classify themselves as independent on the basis of the provisions of Recommendation 7 of the Corporate Governance Code.

Directors shall be elected in the following manner in accordance with Article 17.3 of the By-laws:

a) seven-tenths of the Directors to be elected shall be drawn from the slate that receives the most votes of the Shareholders in the order in which they appear on the slate, rounded off in the event of a decimal number to the next lowest whole number;

b) the remaining Directors shall be drawn from the other slates. Said slates shall not be connected in any way, directly or indirectly, to the Shareholders who have submitted or voted the slate that receives the largest number of votes. For this purpose, the votes received by each slate shall be divided by one or two or three depending upon the number of directors to be elected. The quotients, or points, thus obtained shall be assigned progressively to candidates of each slate in the order given in the slates themselves. The candidates of all the slates shall be ranked by the points assigned in single list in descending order. Those who receive the most points shall be elected. In the event that more than one candidate receives the same number of points, the candidate elected shall be the person from the slate that has not hitherto had a Director elected or that has elected the least number of directors. In the event that none of the slates has yet had a Director elected or that all of them have had the same number of Directors elected, the candidate among all such slates who has received the highest number of votes shall be elected. In the event of equal slate votes and equal points, the entire Shareholders’ Meeting shall vote again and the candidate elected shall be the person who receives a simple majority of the votes;

c) if the minimum number of independent Directors required under these By-laws has not been elected following the above procedure, the points to be assigned to the candidates drawn from the slates shall be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by each slate by the ordinal number of each of these candidates; the candidates who do not meet the requirements of independence with the fewest points from among the candidates drawn from all of the slates shall be replaced, starting from the last, by the independent candidates, from the same slate as the replaced candidate (following the order in which they are listed), otherwise by persons meeting the independence requirements appointed in accordance with the procedure set out in letter d). In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of directors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the lowest number of votes, or, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders’ Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced;

c-bis) if the application of the procedure set out in letters a) and b) does not permit compliance with the gender-balance rules, the points to attribute to each candidate drawn from the slate shall be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by each slate by the ordinal number of each of these candidates; the candidate of the over-represented gender with the fewest points from among the candidates drawn from all of the slates shall be replaced, without prejudice to the compliance with the required minimum number of independent directors, by the member of the less-represented gender who may be listed (with the next highest ordinal number) on the same slate as the candidate to be replaced, otherwise by a person to be appointed following the procedure set out in letter d). In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same minimum number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of directors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the fewest number of votes, or

, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders’ Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced;

d) to appoint Directors who for any reason are not appointed pursuant to the above procedures, the Shareholders’ Meeting shall resolve, with the majorities required by law, to ensure that the composition of the Board of Directors complies with applicable law and the By-laws.

Only those Shareholders who, severally or jointly, represent at least 0.5% of the share capital are entitled to submit a slate, as established by Consob Resolution No. 76 of January 30, 2023.

The slates presented by Shareholders must be filed at the company’s headquarters at least twenty-five days prior to the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting in single call. Considering that this term ends on April 15, 2023, which is a Saturday, to facilitate the presentation of the slates by the Shareholders the term is extended to Monday April 17, 2023, the first working day after the legal deadline of April 15, 2023.

Article 28.2 of the By-laws contains specific provisions on the composition of the slates aimed at ensuring compliance with the rules on gender balance on corporate bodies. Under this rule, at least two fifths of the Statutory Auditor positions to be appointed, i.e. two, must be filled by the less-represented gender.

Shareholders wishing to submit a slate with a number of candidates equal to or more than three, including standing and alternate members, should include, in the section of standing Statutory Auditors, candidates of a different gender. If two candidates are indicated in the section for alternate auditors, they must be of different genders.

Specifically, it is recommended that at least those relationships indicated under point 2 of the Consob Communication be listed. Alternatively, the lack of significant relationships should be indicated;

- the reasons why these relationships do not give rise to the relationships of association referred to in Article 148, paragraph 2 of the CLF and Article 144-quinquies of the Issuer Regulations.

In order for the Shareholders' Meeting to be aware of administration and control positions held by the Statutory Auditors in other companies at the time of appointment and prior to acceptance of the position, pursuant to Article 2400, final paragraph, of the Civil Code, candidates are requested to provide appropriate information on this in the curriculum vitae submitted and are advised to update this information through the date of the Shareholders' Meeting.

Shareholders are asked to ensure that the slate submitted is accompanied by all the information necessary to enable the shareholders to express their vote knowledgeably, including an indication of any ability of the candidate Directors to classify themselves as independent on the basis of the provisions of Recommendation 7 of the Corporate Governance Code.

The slates, together with the abovementioned information, will be made available at the Company’s registered office, on the Company’s website and at Borsa Italiana at least twenty-one days prior to the date set for the Shareholders’ Meeting on single call, i.e. by April 19, 2023.

Slates shall be divided into two sections: the first containing candidates for appointment as regular Statutory Auditors and the second containing candidates for appointment as alternate Statutory Auditors. At least the first candidate in each section must be entered in the register of auditors and have carried out statutory audit activities for no fewer than three years.

Three regular Statutory Auditors and one alternate Statutory Auditor shall be drawn from the slate that receives the majority of votes. The other two standing Statutory Auditors and the other alternate Statutory Auditor shall be appointed using the procedures set out in Article 17.3, letter b) of the By-laws or using the procedures set out in Article 17.3, letter d) of the By-laws. Said procedures shall be applied separately to each section of the other slates.

If the implementation of the above procedure does not ensure compliance with the gender balance rules for standing Statutory Auditors, the points to attribute to each candidate drawn from the standing Statutory Auditor sections of the various slates shall be calculated by dividing the number of votes received by each slate by the ordinal number of each of these candidates; the candidate of the over-represented gender with the fewest points from among the candidates drawn from all of the slates shall be replaced by the member of the less-represented gender who may be listed (with the next highest ordinal number) in the standing Statutory Auditor section on the same slate as the candidate to be replaced or, subordinately, in the alternate Statutory Auditor section of the same slate as the candidate to be replaced (in such case, the latter shall take the position of the alternate candidate that replaces him/her). If this does not permit compliance with the gender-balance rules, he/she shall be replaced by a person chosen by the Shareholders’ Meeting with the majority required by law, so as to ensure that the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors complies with the law and the By-laws. In cases where candidates from different lists have received the same number of points, the candidate from the slate from which the largest number of Statutory Auditors has been drawn or, subordinately, the candidate drawn from the slate receiving the fewest number of votes, or, in the event of a tie vote, the candidate that receives the fewest votes of the Shareholders’ Meeting in a run-off election, shall be replaced.

To appoint Statutory Auditors who for any reason are not appointed according to the above procedures, the Shareholders’ Meeting shall resolve, with the majorities required by law, to ensure that the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors complies with applicable law and the By-laws.

The Statutory Auditors shall remain in office for three financial years, up to the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting called to approve the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Long term incentive Plan 2023-2025 and disposal of Eni treasury shares to serve the Plan

Dear Shareholders,

The Board of Directors of Eni S.p.A., in relation to the expiration of the 2020-2022 share-based Long-Term Incentive Plan approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting of May 13, 2020, has resolved to submit to this Shareholders’ Meeting for approval the adoption of a new 2023-2025 share-based Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2023-2025 share-based LTI Plan”), prepared on the basis of a proposal of the Remuneration Committee, comprised entirely of independent, non-executive directors, as a tool to reward and promote the loyalty of the Company’s most critical managers.

The new Plan aims to support the achievement of the policies defined by the Company’s Strategic Plan promoting, through an adequate balancing of performance parameters, the alignment of management interests to the primary objective of creating sustainable value for the shareholders and for all stakeholders. In particular, the Plan is conditional on the performance results connected with the return of the Eni stock (Total Shareholders Return), measured in relative terms compared to a peer group made up of 6 European companies in the Energy Sector (Shell, BP, TotalEnergies, Equinor, Repsol, OMV) and on a series of absolute parameters connected with the economic/financial performance (Organic Free Cash Flow), as well as with the decarbonisation, energy transition and circular economy targets, provided for in the Strategic Plan and communicated to the market.

The Plan provides three annual awards, each of them is submitted to a Vesting Period of three years in line with industry best practices at international level.

The Plan beneficiaries (the “Beneficiaries”) are the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to be appointed by the Shareholders’ Meeting at the next election of the Board; Eni S.p.A.’s Managers with Strategic Responsibilities, as well as other “key management personnel”, who will be specifically identified during the annual implementation of the Plan from among the managers of Eni S.p.A. and its subsidiaries - with the exception of those listed on regulated markets and their subsidiaries - occupying positions that are most directly responsible for business performance or that are of strategic interest and who, at the date of the award, are employees of and/or in service with Eni and its subsidiaries.

The description of the targets and characteristics of the Plan is set out in more detail in the Disclosure Document (the “Disclosure Document”) prepared by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 114-bis of the CLF and Article 84-bis of the Issuer Regulations, attached to this Report and which will be made available to the public within the time limits and in the manner prescribed by current law, including through publication on Eni’s website.

For the implementation of the Plan, the Board of Directors has resolved to ask the Shareholders’ Meeting to be authorised to grant free of charge, in accordance with the terms and conditions described in the attached Disclosure Document, up to a maximum of 16 million Eni treasury shares to the beneficiaries of the Plan, with the possibility of also using for this purpose the treasury shares originally allocated to the previous 2020-2022 share-based LTI Plan for the part related to the shares not used, approximately 6.7

million shares. Using treasury shares avoids the need to buy additional shares and the consequent financial outlay.

The maximum number of shares allocated to the plan was estimated assuming the achievement of the maximum performance for each assignment and using, as the reference criterion, the minimum price (identified from the value of the 1st decile) recorded for Eni stock over the last three years.

Dear Shareholders,

You are invited to approve the following resolutions:

“Pursuant to and for the purposes of Article 114-bis of the Consolidated Law on Financial Intermediation and of Art. 2357- ter of the Italian Civil Code,

to authorise the Board of Directors to dispose of up to 16 million treasury shares to implement the Plan, also authorising for this purpose the disposal of the treasury shares originally allocated to the previous 2020-2022 share-based LTI Plan for the part related to the shares not used, approximately 6.7 million shares.”

Item 14

Authorisation for the purchase and disposal of treasury shares; related and consequent resolutions.

Dear Shareholders,

As part of the Company’s 2022-2025 Strategic Plan, presented to the market on March 18, 2022, a share buyback programme was provided for, for a minimum amount of €1.1 billion for the first year, increasable on the basis of the Brent price scenario up to a maximum of €2.5 billion.

In execution of the authorisation conferred by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 11, 2022, the Company carried out, between May 30, 2022 and November 29, 2022,⁵a buyback programme in which it purchased a total of 195,550,084 shares, representing 5.48% of the Company’s capital, for a total counter-value of €2,399,992,593. It is planned that these shares will be cancelled in execution of the resolution submitted for the approval of the Shareholders’ Meeting under item 17 of the agenda of the extraordinary part.

In addition, as of today, the Company holds a further 30,547,750 treasury shares in the portfolio which, after the aforesaid cancellation, will represent 0.90% of the share capital.

As indicated in the 2023-2026 Strategic Plan, explained to the market on February 23, 2023, Eni intends to distribute between 25% and 30% of the annual Cash Flow From Operations (CFFO) through a combination of dividends and buybacks. In the presence of a CFFO upside compared to what is envisaged in the Plan, the Company intends to allocate 35% of the incremental CFFO to remuneration.

In line with the Plan, also considering Eni’s expectations for the scenario and performance of the businesses, Eni intends to launch in 2023 a new buyback programme for €2.2 billion for the purposes specified in paragraph 1 below. The amount of the buyback programme may be increased on the basis of any upsides as described above, up to a total maximum of €3.5 billion.

That said, the Board of Directors proposes to authorise the purchase and disposal of treasury shares of the Company, in accordance with the Articles 2357 and 2357-ter of the Italian Civil Code, Article 132 of the CLF, Article 144-bis of the Issuer Regulations for the purposes, within the time limits and in accordance with the procedures specified below.

up to a maximum of 275,000,000 shares for the purchase of treasury shares for the purpose of remunerating Shareholders;

up to a maximum of 62,000,000 shares for the constitution of the so-called stock store.

Pursuant to Article 2357, first paragraph, of the Italian Civil Code, the purchases will be carried out within the limits of distributable profit and available reserves as reported in the most recent regularly approved financial statements.

In connection with purchases of treasury shares, an equal amount of the available reserves or distributable profits will be allocated to a specific restricted reserve as long as the treasury shares are held.

It is also proposed to authorise the Board of Directors to dispose of, at one or more times, all or part of the shares in the portfolio other than those purchased for the purpose of remunerating Shareholders, also before arriving at the maximum number of purchasable shares.

⁶ The cancellation resolution will be effective as from its registration in the Register of Companies pursuant to art. 2436, paragraph 5, of the civil code.

Minimum and maximum price.

The requested authorisation provides for purchases to be made at a price to be determined on a case-by-case basis, having regard to the procedures selected to execute the transaction and in compliance with any regulatory requirements and (if applicable) current accepted market practices, which shall not be more than 10% greater or lower than the official price registered by the Eni stock in the trading session of the Euronext Milan, organised and operated by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., on the day before each individual transaction.

The authorisation requested also specifies that the sale or other disposal actions of treasury shares in the portfolio must take place according to the terms and conditions established each time by the Board of Directors, in accordance with the purposes for which the authorisation for purchase is requested, without affecting compliance with any limits provided for in the current laws and in any applicable accepted market practices.

Methods by which purchases and disposal of treasury shares shall be made.

In particular, in compliance with the provisions of Article 132, paragraph 1 of the CLF, purchases of treasury shares shall be executed in such a manner as to ensure equal treatment of shareholders:

on regulated markets in accordance with the operating procedures established in the rules on the organisation and operation of the markets themselves, which do not permit the direct matching of bids with predetermined offers;

at the conditions specified in Article 5 of the MAR, as specified in this proposed resolution.

The authorisation requested also specifies that the actions for disposal and/or use of treasury shares other than those purchased for the purpose of remunerating the Shareholders can occur with the methods considered most appropriate and in keeping with the Company’s interest and, in any case, in compliance with current regulations and (if applicable) current accepted market practices.

The Board of Directors also submits to the Shareholders’ Meeting, in extraordinary session, the proposal to cancel any treasury shares purchased in execution of the authorisation referred to in this report for the purpose of remunerating the Shareholders, specifying that the cancellation will be made without a nominal reduction of the share capital, in consideration of the absence of nominal value of Eni shares.

ITEM 15

Use of available reserves for and in place of the 2023 dividend

The Company’s Shareholders Remuneration Policy, approved, most recently, by the Board of Directors on February 22, 2023 and communicated to the market at the time the 2023-2026 Strategic Plan (the “2023-2026 Plan”) is presented, provides for a distribution of between 25% and 30% of the annual Cash Flow From Operations through a combination of dividends and buybacks. In the presence of CFFO upsides with respect to what is envisaged in the Plan, shareholders are to be remunerated with 35% of the CFFO, increasable through the instrument of the buyback. Therefore, as well as the buyback programme pursuant to item 14 on the agenda of this Shareholders’ Meeting, the Shareholders Remuneration Policy envisages, for 2023, the payment of a dividend of €0.94 per share, to be made in tranches, according to following schedule: (i) September 2023; (ii) November 2023; (iii) March 2024 and (iv) May 2024.

The Shareholders Remuneration Policy is consistent with the indications of the 2023-2026 Plan, which provide for a high cash generation capacity and is also sustainable in economic-financial and capital terms. In addition, with specific reference to Eni S.p.A, the capital and financial sustainability is further reflected in its high capitalisation and financial strength resulting, among other things, from the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The aforesaid amount of the dividend for financial year 2023 of €0.94 per share corresponds to a total distribution of approx. €3.1 billion considering the shares outstanding at December 31, 2022, the payment of which is provided for according to the following schedule:

September 2023. €0.24 per share;

November 2023: €0.23 per share;

March 2024: €0.24 per share;

May 2024: €0.23 per share.

In line with what was done for the distribution of the dividend of financial year 2022, in order to ensure the payment of the dividend envisaged for 2023, before the approval of the related financial statements, the Board of Directors proposes that the Shareholders' Meeting resolve to distribute Eni S.p.A.’s available reserves, including the portion of the revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000, the use of which is submitted for the approval of the present Shareholders' Meeting under item 16. of the Agenda of the extraordinary part. The distribution of available reserves takes place by way of and in place of the payment of the dividend for the year 2023.

In particular, the Board of Directors proposes that the Shareholders' Meeting use the available reserves, other than the revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 for the distribution of the first tranche of September 2023 and, if necessary, also for the other tranches of the distribution provided for in the Remuneration Policy described above. For the purposes of the September 2023 distribution, as part of the available reserves, the residual amount (approx. €189 million) of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 will be allocated to the shareholders.

The Shareholders' Meeting of May 11, 2022 had approved its use for the implementation of part of the 2022 Remuneration Policy. More precisely, the Shareholders' Meeting of May 11, 2022 approved the reduction of the reserve, pursuant to Law 342/2000 for € 2,400 million, which was allocated for approx. €2,211 million to payment of the dividend tranches of November 2022, March 2023 and May 2023. The remaining amount of approx. €189 million is available for the purposes of the distribution and is expected to be used at the time the first tranche of the 2023 dividend distribution is paid, planned for September 2023. For the distribution of the November 2023, March 2024 and May 2024 tranches, it is planned to make use again of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000, use of which is submitted for approval of the Shareholders' Meeting under item 16 of the Agenda, extraordinary part, without affecting the option of making use of other available reserves, if necessary or appropriate, in the interest of the shareholders.

The amount of the total distribution provided for in the 2023 Remuneration Policy of approx. €3.1 billion is amply covered by the amount of Eni S.p.A.’s available reserves. In this regard, at December 31, 2022, the available reserves of Eni S.p.A. come to approx. €36 billion, to which must be added the 2022 profit to be carried forward (see also item 2 of the agenda above). Available reserves also include the revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000, which amounted to €7,439 million at December 31, 2022.

The Shareholders' Meeting is also requested to delegate to the Board of Directors the execution of the aforementioned resolution and the ascertainment that there are no obstacles to the implementation of the above Remuneration Policy in terms of the capital and financial sustainability of the use of reserves for the distribution, having regard to the overall context in which the Company operates, as well as the performance and financial situation of the Company and the Eni Group emerging from the accounting data and forecasts for the whole year referable to: (i) June 30, 2023, for the distribution of September 2023; (ii) September 30, 2023, for the distribution of November 2023; (iii) the 2023 annual preliminary results, for the distribution of March 2024 and (iv) 2023 draft annual financial statements, for the distribution planned in May 2024.

In regards of the above, we propose the adoption of the following resolution:

Dear Shareholders, in accordance with the Shareholders' Remuneration Policy approved by the Board of Directors of Eni S.p.A. on February 22, 2023, which sets a dividend of €0.94 per share for 2023, to be distributed in 4 tranches in the months of (i) September 2023, for €0.24 per share, (ii) November 2023, for €0.23 per share, (iii) March 2024, for €0.24 per share, and (iv) May 2024, for €0.23 per share, we ask you to approve the following resolution:

to approve, in line with the Shareholders Remuneration Policy adopted by the Board of Directors, the distribution, by way of and in place of the payment of the dividend for 2023, of €0.94 (zero point nine four) per share, to be made in tranches in the months of (i) September 2023, for €0.24 (zero point two four) per share, (ii) November 2023, for €0.23 (zero point two three) per share, (iii) March 2024, for €0.24 (zero point two four) per

share, and (iv) May 2024, for €0.23 per share;

ii)

to approve the use of available reserves i) for the payment of the tranche of €0.24 (zero point two four) planned for September 2023 — also using for this purpose the residual amount (€188,978,048.40) of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000, the use of which was resolved by the Shareholders’ Meeting of May 11, 2022 – and ii), if necessary or appropriate, in the interests of the shareholders, for the payment of the subsequent tranches;

iii)

to delegate the Board of Directors to implement the above resolutions, verifying from time to time the existence of the legal conditions for the purposes of distributing the reserve.

Item 16

Reduction and use of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 for and in place of the 2023 dividend

(extraordinary part)

As already stated under item 15 of the Agenda of this Shareholders’ Meeting, to which you are referred, the Company’s Shareholders Remuneration Policy, approved most recently by the Board of Directors on February 22, 2023 and communicated to the market at the moment of presentation of the 2023-2026 Strategic Plan (the “2023-2026 Plan”), provides for a distribution of an amount between 25% and 30% of the annual Cash Flow From Operations through a combination of dividends and buybacks. In the presence of CFFO upsides with respect to what is envisaged in the Plan, shareholders are to be remunerated with 35% of the CFFO, increasable through the instrument of the buyback. Therefore, as well as the buyback programme pursuant to item 14 on the agenda of this Shareholders’ Meeting, the Shareholders Remuneration Policy envisages for 2023 the payment of a dividend of €0.94 per share, to be made in tranches, according to following schedule and division of the amounts: (i) September 2023, for €0.24 per share; (ii) November 2023, for €0.23 per share; (iii) March 2024, for €0.24 per share and (iv) May 2024, for €0.23 per share.

For the purposes of implementing the distribution described above — which is in line with the indications of the 2023-2026 Plan and also sustainable from an economic and a financial point of view — it is planned to use Eni S.p.A.’s available reserves, the distribution of which, therefore, occurs as and in place of payment of the dividend for 2023, as explained in item 15 of the agenda. In this regard, at December 31, 2022, the available reserves of Eni S.p.A. come to a total of approx. €36 billion, to which must be added the 2022 profit to be carried forward (see item 2 of this agenda above). The said available reserves, therefore, are large enough for the purposes of the distribution, as and in place of the 2023 dividend, the amount of which is estimated at approx. €3.1 billion, considering the shares outstanding at December 31, 2022.

The available reserves also include the revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000, which, after the use made for payment of the November 2022 tranche of the Remuneration Policy envisaged for 2022, at December 31, 2022, amounted to €7,439 million.

The reduction in the revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 and its consequent use are subject, on the basis of the postponement introduced by Art. 13 of the same law, to compliance with the provisions of the second and third paragraphs of Article 2445 of the Italian Civil Code.

In this regard, it should be noted that the term referred to in the third paragraph of article 2445 of the civil code is the registration in the Register of Companies of the resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting approving the use of the reserve.

Considering art. 13 of Law 342/2000, which requires, for the reduction of the revaluation and use of the reserve pursuant to the same Law, the observance of paragraphs 2 and 3 of art. 2445 of the Civil Code, the Board submits the resolution to the Shareholders' Meeting in extraordinary session.

As explained in item 15 of this agenda, the need to comply with the timing envisaged for the use of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 implies the use of other available reserves for the payment of the September 2023 tranche and the possibility of using the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 starting from the November 2023 tranche.

In relation to this, the Shareholders’ Meeting is requested to authorise the reduction of the reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000 and its consequent use, in the amount of €2,300 million, it being understood that if compliance with the legal provisions required for completion of the procedure pursuant to the aforementioned third paragraph of Art. 2445 of the Italian Civil Code does not allow use in good time for distribution of the subsequent tranches or in the interests of shareholders, it is considered necessary or appropriate to proceed in another way for these purposes, the distribution of the tranches involved will be made drawing from other available reserves of Eni S.p.A..

The Shareholders' Meeting is also requested to delegate to the Board of Directors the execution of the aforementioned resolution and determination that there are no obstacles to the implementation of the above Remuneration Policy in terms of the capital and financial sustainability of the use of the reserve for distribution, having regard to the overall context in which the Company operates as well as the capital and financial situation of the Company and the Group, as resulting from the financial statements and the forecasts for the period respectively at (i) June 30, 2023, for the September 2023 tranche, (ii) September 30, 2023 for the November 2023 tranche, (iii) the annual preliminary results for the March 2024 tranche, and (iv) the 2023 draft financial statements for the May 2024 tranche.

In regards of the above, we propose the adoption of the following resolution:

Dear Shareholders, in accordance with the Shareholders' Remuneration Policy approved by the Board of Directors of Eni S.p.A. on February 22, 2023, which sets a dividend of €0.94 per share for 2023, to be distributed in 4 tranches in the months of (i) September 2023 for €0.24 per share, (ii) November 2023 for €0.23 per share, (iii) March 2024 for €0.24 per share, and (iv) May 2024 for €0.23 per share, we ask you to approve the following resolution:

to approve, for the further implementation of the Remuneration Policy, the reduction

- with the methods and terms set out in art. 2445 of the civil code as referred to in art. 13 of Law 342/2000 - of the “Revaluation reserve pursuant to law 342/2000" in the amount of €2,300,000,000.00 (two billion three hundred million point zero zero);

ii)

to approve, for the above purpose, the use of the aforesaid amount of €2,300,000,000.00 (two billion three hundred million point zero zero), made available following the reduction of the “Revaluation reserve pursuant to Law 342/2000” or, subordinately — if compliance with the legal provisions required

for the completion of the procedure pursuant to Art. 2445 of the Italian Civil Code does not allow completion of the procedure in good time for payment of subsequent tranches or in the interests of shareholders, it is considered necessary or appropriate to proceed in another way for these purposes — the use of other available reserves of Eni S.p.A.;

iii)

to delegate the Board of Directors to implement the above resolutions, verifying from time to time the existence of the legal conditions for the purposes of distributing the reserve.

Item 17

Cancellation of Eni treasury shares, without reduction of the share capital, and consequent amendments to Article 5.1 of the By-laws; related and consequent resolutions.

(extraordinary part)

Dear Shareholders,

you have been called to this Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting to examine and approve the proposal to cancel 195,550,084 treasury shares, and consequent amendments to Article 5.1 of the By-laws.

The ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of May 11, 2022 authorised the Board of Directors pursuant to of Article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code to purchase maximum number of shares equal to 10% of the ordinary shares making up Eni S.p.A. social capital (excluding treasury shares already held). The authorisation aimed at allowing the implementation of the share buyback programme, scheduled for the first year of the 2022-2025 Strategic Plan and to offer the Company a flexible option to grant its Shareholders additional remuneration beyond the distribution of dividends.

On that same occasion, the Board of Directors announced the intention to submit to the Shareholders’ Meeting called to approve the financial statements at 31 December 2022 a proposal to cancel the treasury shares purchased up to the date of the Meeting, in execution of the authorisation granted in the Meeting of May 11, 2022.

In execution of the resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting of May 11, 2022, the Company purchased, until November 29, 2022 (date on which the Company's buy-back programme for 2022 ended), a total of 195,550,084 treasury shares representing 5.48% of the Company's capital, for a total value of €2,399,992,593.

That said, in line with what was announced at the above Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors proposes to proceed with the cancellation of 195,550,084 treasury shares, according to the methods illustrated below.

The Company will not proceed with the cancellation of the 30,547,750 treasury shares, equal to approximately 0.86% of the current share capital, not purchased on the basis of the authorisation granted by the Shareholders' Meeting of May 11, 2022.

Since Eni shares do not have par value, the cancellation of the aforementioned 195,550,084 treasury shares will be a mere accounting operation, with the reduction of the reserve authorized by the amount of €2,399,992,593, and elimination of the same amount under the item “Treasury Shares”.

The share capital of Eni S.p.A., currently equal to €4,005,358,876.00, will therefore not undergo any reduction; the shares issued will decrease from 3,571,487,977 to 3,375,937,893 shares; the accounting parity of the remaining 3,375,937,893 shares making up the share capital will change from €1.121 to €1.186.

The cancellation of treasury shares has no effect on the economic result of the Company and does not give rise to differences in the value of the shareholders’ equity.

Following the approval of the proposed cancellation of 195,550,084 treasury shares held by the Company, significant shareholdings, as communicated until March 16, 2023, pursuant to Art. 120 of the CLF and CONSOB Resolution no. 11971/1999 and subsequent amendments, will undergo the following percentage changes 7:

Shareholder	Percentage of current share capital (3,571,487,977 shares)	Percentage of share capital after cancellation (3,375,937,893 shares)
Cassa depositi e prestiti S.p.A.	26.213%	27.731%
Ministry of the Economy and Finance	4.411%	4.667%
Eni S.p.A. (treasury shares)	6.331%	0.905%

The approval of the proposed cancellation of 195,550,084 treasury shares held by the Company requires an amendment of article 5.1 of the By-Laws, with a change in the number of shares making up the share capital (articles 5.2 and 5.3 of the By-laws remain unchanged).

The following is art. 5.1 of the By-Laws in the current and proposed text.

Current text

Proposed text

ART. 5

5.1 The share capital is €4,005,358,876.00 (four billion five million three hundred and fifty-eight thousand eight hundred and seventy-six point zero zero) represented by 3,571,487,977 (three billion five hundred and seventy-one million four hundred and eighty-seven thousand nine hundred and seventy-seven) ordinary shares with no nominal value.

(unchanged)

5.1 The share capital is €4,005,358,876.00 (four billion five million three hundred and fifty-eight thousand eight hundred and seventy-six point zero zero) represented by 3,375,937,893 (three billion three hundred and seventy-five million nine hundred and thirty-seven thousand eight hundred and ninety-three) ordinary shares with no nominal value.

(unchanged)

The cancellation resolution will be effective as from its registration in the Register of Companies pursuant to art. 2436, paragraph 5, of the civil code.

The proposed amendment does not give Shareholders the right of withdrawal, pursuant to Art. 2437 of the Italian Civil Code.

* * * * *

⁷ Significant shareholdings for the purposes of Art. 120 of the CLF are also updated through reports made by intermediaries pursuant to Art. 83-novies of the CLF when corporate rights are exercised.

Dear Shareholders,

You are invited to resolve as follows:

“The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting, having seen the Report of the Board of Directors,

resolves

1) to cancel 195,550,084 treasury shares with no par value leaving the amount of the share capital unchanged and proceeding to reduce the related reserve by the amount of €2,399,992,593 (equal to the book value of the cancelled shares);

2) to amend Article 5.1 of the By-laws as follows:

“5.1 The share capital is €4,005,358,876.00 (four billion five million three hundred and fifty-eight thousand eight hundred and seventy-six point zero zero), represented by 3,375,937,893 (three billion three hundred and seventy-five million nine hundred and thirty-seven thousand eight hundred and ninety-three) ordinary shares with no nominal value”;

3) to grant the Board of Directors - with the authority to delegate to the Chief Executive Officer and for the latter to sub-delegate - all powers necessary to execute the resolution taking all actions required, appropriate, instrumental and/or connected with the successful execution of those resolutions, as well as to make any necessary additions, changes and formal deletions for registration in the Register of Companies and do whatever else is necessary and appropriate for the success of the resolution”.

Item 18

(extraordinary part)

Dear Shareholders,

with reference to the purchase of Eni ordinary shares submitted for your authorisation pursuant to item 14 on the agenda of the present Shareholders’ Meeting in ordinary session, the Board of Directors has called you to an extraordinary session to resolve on the proposal to cancel any treasury shares that will be purchased on the basis of the aforesaid authorisation for the purpose of paying to its Shareholders further remuneration for the distribution of dividends, for a maximum number of 275,000,000 treasury shares, representing approximately 8.15% of the Company’s share capital following the cancellation of the treasury shares pursuant to item 17 on the agenda.

The cancellation proposal is in line with the purposes of the purchase, as already stated in the Report containing an explanation of the aforementioned authorisation pursuant to item 14 on the agenda of the present Shareholders’ Meeting in ordinary session.

The cancellation — the execution of which is entrusted to the Board of Directors, with the option of delegation to the Chief Executive Officer and sub-delegation by the same — may be made also through several actions, including before the purchase of the maximum number of shares authorised today by the Shareholders’ Meeting in ordinary session under the terms of item no. 14 on the agenda and by and no later than July 2024.

The cancellation of treasury shares will not have effect on the Company's economic performance and will not modify the value of shareholders' equity.

The cancellation will be followed by the amendment of Art. 5.1 of the By-laws in the part in which they indicate the number of shares into which the share capital is divided.

It is proposed, therefore, to add a last paragraph to the current Art. 5 of the By-laws as explained in the table presented below. This paragraph will subsequently be annulled once the cancellation has been completed.

Current text	Proposed text
ART. 5	ART. 5
5.4 (non-existent)	5.4. The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 10, 2023 authorised the cancellation of a maximum of 275,000,000 Eni treasury shares purchased in execution of the Plan approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of May 10, 2023, conferring delegated powers on the Board of Directors

– with the option of delegation to the Chief Executive Officer and sub-delegation by the same – to perform this cancellation, with several actions or at one time, by July 2024, to change, as a consequence, the number of shares indicated in paragraph 1 of this article, reducing it by a number of shares equal to those effectively cancelled and to proceed, after completing the cancellation, to annul this paragraph.

The Board believes that the proposed amendment does not give Shareholders the right of withdrawal pursuant to art. 2437 of the civil code.

* * * * *

Dear Shareholders,

Now therefore, on condition that today’s Shareholders’ Meeting in ordinary session has approved the authorisation for the purchase of treasury shares of the company pursuant to item 14 on the agenda of this report, you are asked to approve the following resolution on the present proposal:

“The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting, having seen the Report of the Board of Directors,

resolves

1) to authorise the Board of Directors, with the option of delegation to the Chief Executive Officer and sub-delegation by the same, to cancel up to a maximum of 275,000,000 treasury shares with no nominal value, which will possibly be purchased on the basis of the authorisation of the Shareholders' Meeting in ordinary session today for the purpose of remunerating the Shareholders. The cancellation will occur keeping the amount of the share capital unchanged and through the reduction of the related specific reserve (equal to the carrying amount of the shares cancelled);

2) to approve, as of now, after the treasury share cancellation pursuant to point 1 has been completed, the amendment of Art. 5, paragraph 1 of the By-laws in the part related to the number of shares into which the Eni S.p.A. share capital is divided, indicating in the same paragraph the number of shares that will effectively exist as a consequence of the execution of this cancellation;

3) to add a final paragraph in Article 5 of the By-Laws as follows:

The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 10, 2023 authorised the cancellation of a maximum of 275,000,000 Eni treasury shares purchased in execution of the Plan approved by the Shareholders' Meeting of May 10, 2023, conferring delegated powers on the Board of Directors – with the option of delegation to the Chief Executive Officer and sub-delegation by the same – to perform this cancellation, with several actions or at one time, by July 2024, to change, as a consequence, the number of shares indicated in paragraph 1 of this article, reducing it by a number of shares equal to those effectively cancelled, and to proceed, after completing the cancellation, to annul this paragraph;

4) to grant the Board of Directors — with the authority to delegate to the Chief Executive Officer and for the latter to sub-delegate — all powers necessary to execute the resolution, taking all actions required, appropriate, instrumental and/or connected with the successful execution of the resolutions pursuant to the previous points, as well as to make any necessary additions, changes and formal deletions for registering in the Business Register and do whatever else is necessary and appropriate for the success of the resolution”.

2023 Guidelines for Shareholders on the Board of Directors

2023 Guidelines for Shareholders on the Board of Statutory Auditors

Informative Document on Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

Eni SpA Board of Directors' Guidelines for Shareholders on the optimal
composition of future Boards of Directors, pursuant to Recommendation 23 of
the Corporate Governance Code

Approved on 22 February 2023

Preliminary Summary

The Board of Directors of Eni SpA, whose term of office expires with the approval of the financial statements for the year 2022, in compliance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code (hereinafter referred to as "CGC"), in view of the renewal of the corporate bodies, submits to the Shareholders its Guidelines on the quantitative and qualitative composition deemed optimal for the Board of Directors¹, taking into account the results of the Self-Assessment, carried out on an ongoing basis throughout the entire term of office.

The Guidelines provided by the outgoing Board come at the end of a term marked by numerous factors of significant strategic importance and transformative scope, not only with reference to the company but also the industry and the international context in which it operates.

The members of the Board emphasise that the company has in fact embarked on a major energy transition path, aimed at 2050, which has seen the development of three business plans, characterised by particularly ambitious and bold transformation goals.

In this process of change, the incumbent Board believes it has responsibly and competently fulfilled its role of strategic guidance, actively promoting and sharing objectives and constructively supporting the CEO and the entire management team in the process of diversification, transition and energy security which, moreover, began at a time strongly affected by both the impacts of the pandemic crisis and the more recent war and the consequent geopolitical and economic impacts.

The Board holds that it has achieved an important level of understanding of the complex management issues, developing significant experience and expertise in dealing with and making decisions on the topics addressed, thanks to the contribution of the professional skills and commitment and dedication devoted to the role by each Director, and also to the effectiveness of the collegial, balanced, competent and contributory work done.

The evaluations expressed emphasise the importance of guaranteeing, in the composition of the future Board, adequate continuity and the level of performance achieved, in order to ensure that the company continuously and constantly exercises its governance and policy-making functions through the Board of Directors, particularly in this extraordinarily complex and evolving economic situation, and taking into account the medium-long term industrial cycle that characterises the energy sector.

To that end, it is useful to point out that, as a result of reaching the three-mandate limit, two Directors currently in office, drawn from the minority list, will lose their Independence requirement, thus making it foreseeable that they will be replaced, and this already represents a factor of substantial change.

Context

During its 2020 - 2022 term of office, Eni's Board of Directors has, in a cohesive manner, discussed, resolved and implemented activities of significant strategic, economic and financial importance for the Company and for the national system, together with initiatives aimed at ensuring the maximum effectiveness of governance structures, summarised below:

¹ The Corporate Governance Code recommends that shareholders submitting 'a list containing a number of candidates exceeding half of the members to be elected’ are required ‘to provide adequate information, in the documentation submitted for the filing of the list, on the consistency of the list with the guidelines expressed by the Board of Directors, also with reference to the diversity criteria set forth in Principle VII and Recommendation 8, and to indicate their candidate for the office of Chairman of the Board of Directors, whose appointment shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Articles of Association'.

Confirmation of the determination and awareness of the values that inspire Eni's purpose to arrive at a fair and inclusive energy transition, with the aim of preserving the planet and promoting access to energy resources in an efficient and sustainable manner for all, without neglecting the implementation of that necessary to guarantee energy security.

Definition of a Strategic Plan, updated annually, which has seen the acceleration of the decarbonisation strategy with the goal of reducing all emissions to zero by 2050 and which has been progressively adapted to the changed macroeconomic context, further complicated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the consequent geo-political and economic impacts, and the new energy security requirements, aimed at guaranteeing the supply of additional gas volumes for Italy and Europe.

Approval of a new organisational structure for the Company (with the establishment of two new general divisions: Natural Resources and Energy Evolution) and a new business model (so called “satellite”) that envisages the establishment of companies dedicated to the generation, transformation and sale of sustainable energy products, obtained from renewable sources, biomass and decarbonised processes.

Full integration of environmental and sustainability objectives into company strategies and policies, accompanied by the inclusion of sustainability parameters, also in remuneration policies.

Continuous effort to expand in-house expertise on safety issues - operational, health & safety and cyber - also with specific Induction programmes.

Definition and updating of a dividend policy aimed at sharing with investors the value generated through Eni's progress on its strategic path accompanied by modular buy-back programs;

Significant operations in the development of proprietary frontier technologies, such as the magnetic confinement fusion project.

Adoption of the best compliance and governance practices, also in compliance with the principles and recommendations of the CGC approved in 2020 by the Italian Corporate Governance Committee (of which Eni's Chairman is President), to which the company has adhered since 1 January 2021.

Size

The current size of the Board of 9 members (the maximum number established by the Articles of Association) remains optimal, and the Board recommends its continuation, allowing for the effective composition of the internal Board Committees and the important working contribution they offer to the strategic supervision role exercised by the Board, also thanks to the variety of skills and consolidated experience offered by the Directors.

The fact that independent directors represent a majority of the Board (currently 7 out of 9, including the Chairman) as defined under the law and the CGC is also an element to be favoured.

Diversity and Tenure

With reference to the various types of diversity currently represented - gender (4 women and 5 men), age (average 59, median 61), professional background (managers, professionals, academics) and geographical origin - the Board expresses positive assessments overall. The guidelines given are to maintain, and possibly expand, a balanced and diverse variety of skills, abilities and experience, also in the future composition. The Board recalls that, pursuant to Article 17.3 of Eni's Articles of Association, at least two-fifths of the Board must consist of directors of the less represented gender, rounded up to the next whole number.

With reference to tenure in office, the guidance expressed by the Board confirms the importance of not wasting the skills and experience acquired and consolidated in the current term, taking into account that a good 6 out of 9 Directors are in their first term and that 2 of the 3 Directors taken from the minority list will in any case have to be replaced due to having served for 3 terms, the maximum limit for continued recognition as independent.

Experience - Knowledge - Skills

In the 2022 Self-Assessment, the Board of Directors, as anticipated, emphasised the need to ensure the continuity necessary to implement the strategic guidelines and operational and organisational projects, in order to achieve and consolidate results and meet Eni's strategic and management objectives.

The Board of Directors, based on experience acquired through work completed and the scale of the challenges that will have to be faced in the new term to continue the path towards a just transition, combined with the requirements of energy security, recommends a composition that ensures high skills in differentiated areas are included, with experience and expertise that confirm and appropriately complement the qualitative composition of the Board.

In addition to full independence of judgement and accountability, the main requirements, in terms of distinctive experience, knowledge and skills, which the Board deems appropriate for all directors are:

Knowledge of the regulatory framework and governance mechanisms of listed companies and awareness of the Board of Directors' strategic guidance role in complex multinational industrial realities, acquired through experience on Boards of Directors of listed companies of a complexity comparable with that of Eni;

Knowledge of sustainability issues and the climate and environmental risk control, acquired through managerial or entrepreneurial roles and in industrial contexts comparable to those in which Eni operates;

International experience and knowledge of energy markets and the socio-political realities of the countries in which Eni operates.

The Board also assigns particular importance to 'soft' skills, with the main ones listed below:

Analytical, prioritisation and decision-making skills;

Social intelligence (listening, collaboration, dialogue and communication skills);

Awareness of the importance of the role and responsibilities;

Authoritativeness and ability to share professional expertise and opinions.

Should the Shareholders opt for a substantial change in the composition of the Board of Directors, it is emphasised that it is important for new Directors to be willing and motivated to follow a robust and structured onboarding programme, in order to minimise the time required to be able to fully exercise their role and contribute to the Board's task of strategic oversight.

Availability of Time

All candidates for future Eni Board Members must give full evidence guaranteeing the availability of the time necessary to participate, physically or possibly through video-conference, and to prepare for Board meetings (16 in 2022, for an average duration of more than 4 hours) and Committee meetings, as well as to participate in onboarding/induction sessions and, during their term of office, in ongoing training sessions, as well as in meetings, also off-site, with other Board Members.

In addition to the time required to attend meetings, it is also necessary to add the significant time (which can be estimated at between two and three times the scheduled meeting time) spent preparing for each meeting and, for the Chairpersons of the Board and each of the Committees, also the time dedicated to carrying out the role and activities of preparing, organising and coordinating Board and Committee meetings.

Roles of Particular Importance

Eni's Directors, aware of the high importance of certain roles within the Board of Directors, indicate the main specific characteristics of the representatives called upon to fill those roles:

Chairman of the Board of Directors

be a figure with a high professional and value profile, independent, authoritative and credible, so as to play the role of guarantor towards Eni's shareholders and stakeholders;

capable of guaranteeing, with high leadership qualities, transparent and proper management of the functioning of the Board of Directors;

capable of fostering the integration of the different skills and experiences of Directors, contributing to constructive and effective debate and decision-making;

have previous experiences in leading Boards of listed companies of comparable size, complexity and international status with regards to Eni;

with attention and strong experience in corporate governance;

with recognised personal and professional status.

Chief Executive Officer

be a person of full and recognised authority and personal and professional standing, also at the international level, in a strategic sector such as the one in which Eni operates;

who has gained significant and clearly successful managerial experience at the apex of companies of a size, complexity and importance, including geopolitical, comparable with that of Eni;

who has the ability to lead and implement an extremely important transformation path;

who has and can convey vision and strategic thinking;

who has high charismatic and leadership qualities.

Guidelines for shareholders on the optimal qualitative/quantitative composition
of the Board of Statutory Auditors

Document approved by the outgoing Board of Statutory Auditors at its meeting
on 21 February 2023 as provided for by the CNDCEC Rules of Conduct for the
Boards of Statutory Auditors of Listed Companies of 26 April 2018

The next Shareholders' Meeting, convened for 10 May 2023, will appoint the new Board of Statutory Auditors. Therefore, the latter, having reached the end of its term and drawing on its experience and the results of a self-assessment¹, provides the Shareholders guidelines on how to determine the best candidates to propose to the Shareholders' Meeting for the quantitative and qualitative composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors.

Context

The guidelines offered by the outgoing Board come at the end of a term marked by numerous factors of significant strategic and transformative significance, as well as the impacts of the pandemic crisis and recent geopolitical and economic events, which have further impacted control activities. The strategy of enhancing and evolving Eni's businesses, also through controlled corporate vehicles, the so-called 'satellite model', represents a distinctive element to be considered in relation to the supervisory activities of the Parent Company's Board of Statutory Auditors.

It should also be emphasised that, since Eni is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Board of Statutory Auditors also performs the role and duties of an Audit Committee pursuant to SEC rules and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, i.e. it carries out functions additional to those envisaged by applicable legislation for issuers listed on the Italian market.

Finally, the responsibilities required of the auditing body have been and will be further expanded in terms of information flows and monitoring activities, in light of the entry into force of European-level implementing regulations, both recent and expected in the next three years (concerning, inter alia, statutory audit regulations and non-financial reporting).

Size, Requirements, Tenure and Diversity

The Company's By-laws provide for the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors to consist of five statutory auditors and two alternate auditors, and among the requirements of professionalism, gives prevalence to commercial law, business economics and corporate finance.

The Board draws the shareholders' attention to the need to ensure the regulatory requirement that competence in the field in which the company operates must be held by the Board as a whole.

The Board recognises the value of diversity in its composition, not only with regard to gender, while respecting the primary objective of ensuring adequate competence and professionalism for its members.

Availability of Time

For an effective interpretation of one's role, it is of paramount importance that candidates offer complete evidence they can guarantee the necessary time to prepare for and participate in the demanding activities of the assignment ².

¹ In addition to the Rules of Conduct for the Board of Statutory Auditors, for the purposes of this document, it is considered that the recommendations addressed to the outgoing Board of Directors by the Corporate Governance Code may also be analogously applicable in the event of a renewal of the Board of Statutory Auditors (see, in particular, Articles 2 "Composition of Corporate Bodies" and 4 "Appointment of Directors and Self-Assessment of the Board of Directors").

To this commitment must also be added, for the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors, the time devoted to carrying out the role and the activities of preparing, organising and coordinating the activities and meetings of the Board.

Experience, Skills

On the basis of the experience gained and the activities and challenges that the new body will have to face, the Board of Statutory Auditors considers it indispensable that the selected professionals have - on the whole - adequate experience in large and international listed companies in various industrial sectors, with highly structured and complex governance.

The Board has also identified an additional requirement for its efficient and effective functioning, namely the ability to work in a team and manage complexities in a constructive and balanced way. Decisive in this regard is the role of the Chairman, whose authority is essential both for creating cohesion and collaboration between Board members, and in the interaction with other corporate bodies, structures and people in general and, more specifically, with those responsible for the internal control and risk management system.

Lastly, the Board offers guidelines on how to assess, within the framework of the main contributions of skills, experience and knowledge, including "soft" skills, the following aspects that it believes support and appropriately complement the qualitative composition of the Board:

expertise in financial and non-financial reporting;

risk management, governance and compliance skills with reference to complex corporate groups;

skills and/or experience in climate change/energy transition;

experience in extraordinary finance and M&A transactions;

collaboration, influence and resolution of potential conflicts;

assertiveness, dialogue skills, authenticity, standing-up and communication skills.

Remuneration

The Board of Statutory Auditors deems it appropriate to mention the Corporate Governance Code³, which states that, in order to attract persons of adequate "standing", remuneration of the members of the control body must provide for an amount appropriate to the competence, professionalism and commitment required by the relevance of the role covered and by the company's size and sector characteristics, and be determined taking into account the remuneration practices widespread in the reference sectors and for companies of similar size,

² In terms of meetings, in 2022: Board of Statutory Auditors (20 meetings, with an average duration of almost 4 hours); Board of Directors (16 meetings); Internal Board of Directors Committees (a total of 44 meetings, all attended by at least one Statutory Auditor); On-boarding/induction sessions; Coordination meetings relative to the entire Group.

³ Standard XV and Recommendations 25 and 30.

also considering comparable foreign realities and practices.

In order to assess the adequacy and fairness of the remuneration attributed by the Shareholders' Meeting to the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, a useful indication is comparison with the remuneration paid to non-executive Directors, considered inclusive of remuneration for participation on Internal Board of Directors Committees, also for the purpose of consistent treatment of the corporate bodies.

Introduction

This Informative Document, prepared in accordance with Art. 84-bis (Annex 3A, Scheme No. 7) of the Issuers’ Regulation, has been prepared by Eni SpA (“Eni”) to provide information to its shareholders and to the market on the proposed adoption of the Long-Term Share Incentive Plan 2023-2025 (the “Plan”), approved by the Board of Directors of Eni on 16th March 2023, which will be submitted for approval in accordance with Art. 114-bis of the Consolidated Law on Finance to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting convened on 10th May 2023, in single call (the “Shareholders' Meeting”).

2.1

Objectives to be achieved by means of the attribution of the Plan

With the expiry of the 2020-2022 Long-Term Share Incentive Plan, a new 2023-2025 sharebased ILT plan has been introduced to support the achievement of the guidelines defined in the Company's Strategic Plan by promoting the alignment of management interests with the priority goal of creating sustainable value for shareholders, through an adequate balance of performance parameters.

The Plan envisages performance conditions, in support of the implementation of the Strategic Plan, that are consistent with the objectives communicated to the market and in line with shareholders’ interests, concerning: the return on Eni shares (Total Shareholders Return), economic/financial performance (organic Free Cash Flow) and environmental sustainability and energy transition objectives (decarbonisation, energy transition and the circular economy), in line with the interests of all stakeholders.

The Plan provides for three annual awards, each of which includes a three-year Vesting Period in line with the best practice in the industrial sector internationally.

2.2

Key variables, including in the form of performance indicators, considered in order to attribute the financial instrument based plans

The incentive levels are defined as a percentage of fixed remuneration, in accordance with the following principles of the remuneration policy adopted by Eni:

compensation package for management suitably balanced between: (i) a fixed component consistent with the powers and/or responsibilities assigned, in addition to being sufficient to remunerate service if the variable component is not paid, and (ii) a variable component defined within maximum limits and designed to link remuneration to actual performance, taking account of the risk profiles of the business;

consistency of the total remuneration with the market levels applicable for similar positions or roles with a similar level of responsibility and complexity, based on panels of companies that are comparable to Eni;

variable remuneration for managerial positions that have a greater influence on business performance characterized by a significant percentage of long-term incentive components, through appropriate deferment over a period of at least three years, in line with the long-term nature of Eni’s business and with the associated risk profile.

The performance indicators are given in paragraph 4.5 below.

page 6 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

In line with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies, which Eni has adopted, the conditions of the Plan have been defined based on a proposal by the Compensation Committee.

The Plan, in relation to its Beneficiaries, constitutes a related party transaction subject to the approval of the Shareholders’ Meeting in accordance with Art. 114-bis of the Consolidated Law on Finance, therefore the specific procedures defined by Consob resolution No. 17221 of 12.3.2010 (“Regulation on related party transactions”) are not applied, in accordance with the provisions of the paragraph 10 of the Management System Guideline “Transactions with the interests of Directors and statutory auditors and transactions with related parties” adopted by Eni.

3.6

Date of the decision taken by the competent body to propose the approval of the plan to the shareholders’ meeting and any proposal of a remunerations committee, where existing

On 16th March 2023, the Board of Directors, based on a proposal by the Compensation Committee of 8th March 2022, resolved to submit the Plan to the Shareholders’ Meeting.

3.7

Date of the decision taken by the competent body with regards to the granting of instruments and the potential proposal to said body by a remunerations committee, where existing

The Plan’s implementation is resolved annually by the Board of Directors based on the proposal by the Compensation Committee, by the end of October for the award of Eni Shares by the end of November.

3.9

In the case of plans based on financial instruments traded on regulated markets, in what terms and how the issuer considers, when identifying the timing of the granting of instruments in implementation of the plan, the possible timing coincidence of:

said granting or any decisions taken in this regard by the remunerations committee; and

ii) the diffusion of any significant information in accordance with Art. 114, paragraph 1 of the Consolidated Law on Finance: for example, if such information is: a) not already public and able to positively affect marketing listings, or b) already public and able to negatively affect market listings.

page 7 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

The Plan and its terms and conditions are previously approved with the ex-ante determination of the timing and the criteria for determining the number of Eni Shares to be granted without the possibility of exercising discretionary powers.

The number of Eni Shares to award to each beneficiary is calculated based on a set percentage of fixed remuneration (linked to the level of the position held) and with regard to the Award Price of Eni Share. The length of the period (4 months) considered for calculating the Award Price of Eni Shares rules out the possibility that the award can be significantly affected by the possible dissemination of inside information within the meaning of article 114, paragraph 1, of the Consolidated Law on Finance.

The granting of Eni Shares free of charge to each beneficiary takes place by the year after the one in which the three-year performance period ends, (from 1st January of the award year to 31st December of the 3rd year), based on the Shares awarded and the performance results approved by the Board of Directors, subject to verification and approval of the Compensation Committee.

Beneficiaries are required to comply with the provisions of insider dealing legislation and applicable regulations, in particular with reference to the disposition of the shares involved in any granting after the verification of the achievement of the performance objectives.

The characteristics of the instruments awarded

4.1

Description of the ways in which the compensation plans based on financial instruments are structured

The Plan provides for three annual awards of Eni Shares free of charge that may be granted after three years. The amount of the grant of Eni Shares is linked with the performance conditions achieved according to the specified parameters and other conditions.

For the purposes of the grant of Eni Shares to the Beneficiaries, Eni Shares already held as treasury shares will be used, allocated to serve the Plan subject to a specific resolution of the Shareholders’ Meeting.

4.2

Indication of the period of effective plan implementation also with reference to any different cycles envisaged

The Plan provides for three annual awards for the period 2023-2025. Each award is subject to a Vesting Period of three years and consequently the period of implementation of the Plan runs from 2023 to 2028, as described in the scheme below.

page 8 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

4.3

Plan expiration

The Plan will expire in 2028, at the end of the Vesting Period for the last award in 2025.

4.4

Maximum number of financial instruments, also in the form of options, granted each tax year in relation to the entities identified or the specified categories

The number of Eni Shares to award will be calculated based on a set percentage of the fixed remuneration, which is the component of the annual remuneration whose payment is guaranteed, and on the Award Price of Eni Share.

The number of Eni Shares to be granted will be defined as a percentage of those awarded, as specified in paragraph 4.5 below.

4.5

Methods and clauses for the implementation of the plan, specifying if the effective attribution of the instruments is subject to conditions being met or given results being achieved, including performance-related; a description of said conditions and results

The performance conditions of the Plan are related to four objectives, assessed for each Performance Period in comparison with the Peer Group or in absolute terms vs the target figures of the Strategic Plan, after a careful process of verifying the results actually achieved by the Remuneration Committee, which supports the resolutions passed on the issue by the Board of Directors.

The Objectives and related weightings are as follows:

25% Market objective: linked to the Total Shareholder Return (in comparison with Peer Group)

40% Economic and financial objective: Organic Free Cash Flow (absolute vs the target set forth in the Strategic Plan)

35% Environmental Sustainability and Energy Transition objectives, as follows:

10% Decarbonisation Objective: upstream GHG net emissions Scope 1 and Scope 2 equity (absolute vs the target set forth in the Strategic Plan)

15% Energy Transition objective: installed capacity of electricity generation from renewable sources (7.5%) and bio-jet fuel production capacity (7.5%) (absolute vs the target set forth in the Strategic Plan)

10% Circular Economy Objective: vertical integration percentage of the agribusiness for the production of bio-fuels (absolute vs the target set forth in the Strategic Plan)

The descriptions of each parameter are given below, together with related definition and performance verification methods, and the determination of shares to be granted at the end of the vesting period.

Relative parameters

Market Objective: measured as the difference between the Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of Eni Shares and the TSR of the FTSE Mib Index of Borsa Italiana Stock Exchange, adjusted with the Correlation Index, compared with similar differences for each company of the Peer Group, as shown in the following formula (weighted at 50%):

page 9 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

Where:

TSR_A: TSR of Eni or one of the companies in the Peer Group

TSR_I: TSR of the reference stock market index of the company to which the TSR_A applies;

p_A,I: Correlation Index

The TSR is calculated for all the companies in the performance period over three years in US dollars (USD), as the ratio between the 2 following terms:

the difference (i) between the average reference price of the shares in the four months before the end of the performance period (in the case of dividends distributed during the Performance Period and in the four months before this, the share prices are adjusted by considering the dividends reinvested in the same share) and (ii) the average reference price of the shares in the four months before the start of the Performance Period (in the case of dividends distributed in the four months for calculating the average, the share prices are adjusted by considering the dividends reinvested in the same share);

the average reference price of the shares in the four months before the start of the Performance Period (in the case of dividends distributed during the four months for calculating the average, the share prices are adjusted by considering the dividends reinvested in the same share).

For Eni and the Peer Group companies whose reference share prices are not originally expressed in USD (Eni, BP, TotalEnergies, Shell, Equinor, Repsol and OMV), the above averages are calculated by converting to USD the daily reference prices of the shares and any dividends using the Bloomberg daily exchange rate (London close).

The TSR of each Reference Stock Market Index is calculated using the same methods employed for the TSR of Eni and of the companies in the Peer Group, including conversions to USD. Therefore, the Correlation Index is calculated considering the prices of the shares of the companies and the quotations of their Reference Stock Market Index appropriately converted to USD.

page 10 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

The result of the relative parameter is determined on the basis of a partial multiplier, varying between zero and 180% and calculated based on the positioning in the Peer Group according to the following scale, with minimum performance set at the median positioning level (4th place).

Absolute parameters

Economic-financial objective: measured as the Organic Free Cash Flow cumulated in the three-year reference period, compared to the equivalent cumulated value provided for in the first 3 years of the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Directors in the year of award and kept unchanged during the performance period.

Decarbonisation objective: measured in terms of upstream net GHG emissions Scope 1 and Scope 2 equity (tCO₂eq) at the end of the three-year reference period compared to the same value expected in the 3rd year of the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Directors in the year of attribution and kept unchanged over the performance period.

The result of the parameter is determined according to the International GHG Emission Reporting Standards (e.g. GHG protocol) appropriately implemented in the Eni regulatory system, with independent verification of final data by certification Companies.

Energy transition objective: i) installed electricity generation capacity from renewable sources measured in megawatts (MW), ii) biojet fuel production capacity measured in ktons. The results of both parameters will be assessed at the end of the three-year reference period compared with the corresponding values expected in the 3rd year of the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Directors in the year of attribution and kept unchanged in the performance period.

Circular Economy objective: measured in terms of the percentage value of vertical integration of Agribusiness for the production of biofuels at the end of the three-year reference period, compared with the provisions of the 3rd year of the Strategic Plan approved by the Board of Directors in the year of award and kept unchanged during the performance period.

The verification of absolute parameters is conducted net of exogenous variables¹, using the gap-analysis approach approved by the Remuneration Committee, in order to enhance the effective corporate performance deriving from the management action

¹ Exogenous variables are those events that, due to their nature or though Company choice, are not under the control of the managers, such as, for example, Oil & Gas prices or the euro/dollar exchange rate.

page 11 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

The result for each absolute parameter will be assessed on the basis of a partial multiplier ranging between 0 and 180% determined as a function of performance as in the following chart.

The performance levels (threshold, target and maximum) of the absolute parameters for the first 2023 award (with performance period 2023-2025) are shown in the following table.

The targets for subsequent awards will be determined and disclosed in the Remuneration Report of the award year.

The number of shares to grant (A_AS) at the end of the vesting period is determined using the following formula:

A_{AS =}A_ATx M_F

where A_AT is the number of Eni shares awarded and M_F is the final multiplier equal to the weighted average of the partial multipliers of each parameter.

No Eni Shares are granted if the Final Multiplier is lower than 40%.

Finally, the Plan provides for the adoption, through the specific Regulation approved by the Board of Directors, on the proposal of the Remuneration Committee, of clawback and malus mechanisms that allow to apply:

page 12 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

the restitution of the variable component of remuneration, if already paid and/or granted (clawback);

the withholding/withdrawal of the variable components of remuneration, already vested but not yet paid and/or granted (malus).

These mechanisms shall apply in cases when the incentives (or the rights thereto) have vested based on data that subsequently proved to be manifestly misstated or in cases of wilful alteration of the same data.

The same mechanisms shall apply in cases of termination for disciplinary reasons, including serious and intentional violations of law and/or regulations, the Code of Ethics or Company rules, without prejudice to any action allowed under law for the protection of the Company’s interests.

The Policy provides that the activation of recoupment claims (or withdrawal of incentives awarded but not yet paid) must take place, once appropriate verification has been completed, within three years of payment (or award) in cases of error, and within five years in cases of deliberate intent to defraud.

4.6

Indication of any restrictions of availability affecting the instruments attributed or the instruments from the year of the options, with specific reference to the terms within which the subsequent transfer to the company or third parties is permitted or prohibited

In order to further enhance alignment with the interests of shareholders over the long term, the Plan states that, at the end of the Vesting Period, 50% of the Eni Shares granted are subject to a lock-up period of 2 years, i.e. the Eni Shares cannot be transferred and/or sold, by managers in service, for 2 year after the grant date, in line with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code.

4.7

Description of any termination conditions in relation to the attribution of plans in the event that the addressees should carry out hedging operations that enable the neutralisation of any prohibitions of the sale of the financial instruments granted, also in the form of options, or financial instruments arising from the exercise of these options

Not applicable.

4.8

Description of the effects determined by the termination of employment

The Regulation of the Plan provides as follows:

in the cases of consensual termination of the Beneficiary’s employment relationship, or the loss of control by Eni of the Subsidiary of which the Beneficiary is an employee, or the transfer of the company (or of the business unit) of which the Beneficiary is an employee to a non-subsidiary, occurring by the date on which the Board of Directors establishes the final percentage for the grant, the cash value of a predefined percentage of the number of Awarded Shares, based on the Award Price, will be paid to the Beneficiary in proportion to the period between the award and the occurrence of the above events, as well as in relation to the results recorded during this period;

in the case of the Beneficiary’s death, the heirs retain the right to receive the entire amount of the Awarded Shares at the Award Price;

in the cases of unilateral termination of the employment relationship, if the event occurs during the Vesting Period, there is no payment/granting of the Shares.

If the Chief Executive Officer is not reappointed at the end of the mandate, the granting of Eni Shares of each award will be made pro-rata with respect to the period of stay in the office, according to the results of performance achieved during the same period. In the other cases, the Plan Regulation will apply.

page 13 of 15

Eni

Informative Document – Long-Term Incentive Plan 2023-2025

4.9

Indication of any other causes for the cancellation of the plans

In the event that the market conditions of Eni Share do not allow the implementation of the Plan within the limits of the defined provision, the Board of Directors may review the terms of the Plan or possibly cancel it.

4.10

Reasons in relation to the potential provision for “redemption” by the Company of the financial instruments covered by the plans, arranged in accordance with Art. 2357 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code; the beneficiaries of the redemption, specifying if it is only intended for specific categories of employees; the effects of the termination of employment on said redemption

Not applicable.

4.11

Any loans or other benefits intended to be granted for the purchase of shares in accordance with Art. 2358 of the Italian Civil Code

Not applicable.

4.12

Indication of assessments of the forecast burden for the company on the date of the related granting, as can be determined on the basis of the terms and conditions already defined, for the total amount and in relation to each plan instrument

The execution of the Plan provides for a maximum of 16 million treasury shares to be assigned for all grants, and can also use thereto the approximately 6.7 million treasury shares originally allocated to the ILT 2020-2022 Plan and no longer assignable. The maximum number of grantable shares has been estimated in the event of achievement of maximum performance (180%), in the Vesting Period of each attribution and taking into account the value of the 1st decile of prices recorded by Eni shares over the last three years.

The corresponding cost to the Company of the implementation of the Plan, depending on the number of Eni Shares actually assigned and on the Award Price of Eni Shares, is currently not determinable and will be communicated in accordance with art. 84-bis of the Issuers' Regulation.

4.13

Indication of any dilution effects on the capital determined by the compensation plans

There is no impact on the amount of the share capital, as the Eni shares allocated to serve the Plan will be composed exclusively of Eni treasury shares already held, subject to specific authorization of the Shareholder’s Meeting.

The possible grant to Beneficiaries of Eni treasury shares will dilute the voting rights of the other Eni shareholders. Currently the voting rights attaching to Eni’s treasury shares are suspended in accordance with art. 2357-ter, paragraph 2, of the Italian Civil Code; once assigned to the Beneficiaries, these Eni Shares will give voting rights to their owners. The grant of Eni Shares to Beneficiaries can give rise to a maximum dilution of voting rights of 0.5% For example, a package of shares representative of 1% of voting rights before granting would be diluted maximally at 0.995%.
