4 1.2. Process to Define and Approve the Compensation Policy The Nominating and Compensation Committee submits the policy to the Board of s for approval. The Board of s, after reviewing and approving the policy, submits it to the Meeting for a consultative vote. The policy, as approved by the Board of s, defines the principles and guidelines that: - the Board of s is required to follow in defining the s of: o the members of the Board of s and, specifically, s who perform special functions; o the Executives with Strategic Responsibilities; - the Group uses as a reference in defining the of top management. As part of the process of defining the policy, the Company analyzes and monitors on an ongoing basis market practices and levels, based on data supplied by outside experts on an aggregate basis, without making specific references to other companies. As a rule, independent experts from the Hay Group contribute to the policy s development. The policy was prepared consistent with the recommendations of Article 6 of the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies published by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. This Compensation Report was prepared in accordance with the provisions set forth in the document published by the Consob to implement Article 123-ter of Legislative Decree No. 58/1998, which deals with transparency issues concerning the of s of listed companies Role of the Nominating and Compensation Committee The Nominating and Compensation Committee currently in office, appointed by the Board of s on January 27, 2012, is comprised of three non-executive, independent s (Gaetano Mele Chairman, Marco Jesi and Ferdinando Grimaldi Quartieri). This Committee performs a proposal-making function. More specifically: - It submits proposals to the Board of s regarding the appointment of a Chief Executive Officer and the names of s to be coopted by the Board, when necessary, as well as proposals regarding the of s who perform special functions. A portion of the overall paid to the abovementioned individuals may be tied to the operating performance of the Company and the Group and may be based on the achievement of specific predetermined targets. 4

5 - At the request of the Chief Executive Officer, it evaluates proposals for the appointment and of Chief Executive Officers and Board Chairmen of the main subsidiaries. A portion of the overall paid to the abovementioned individuals may be tied to the operating performance of the Company and the Group and may be based on the achievement of specific predetermined targets. In performing this task, the Committee may request the input of the Group Human Resources Manager. - At the request of the Chief Executive Officer, it defines the parameters used to determine the criteria applicable to the Company s senior management and the adoption of stock option plans and plans for grants of shares of stock or other financial instruments that may be used to incentivize and increase the loyalty of senior management. In performing this task, the Committee may request the input of the Group Human Resources Manager. During the first six months of 2011 (up to the Meeting of June 28, 2011) the Committee was comprised of three non-executive, independent s: Carlo Secchi (Chairman), Andrea Guerra and Marco De Benedetti. On July 1, 2011, the new Board of s of Parmalat S.p.A. appointed a new Nominating and Compensation Committee comprised of the following three non-executive s: Daniel Jaouen (Chairman), Antonio Sala and Gaetano Mele. On January 27, 2012, following the resignation from the Committee of the s Daniel Jaouen and Antonio Sala, the Board of s appointed as their replacements on the Committee the independent s Marco Jesi and Ferdinando Grimaldi Quartieri, and named Chairman the independent Gaetano Mele, who was already serving on the Committee. In 2011, the Nominating and Compensation Committee met 3 (three) times, including 2 (two) meetings by the old Committee, attended by all Committee members, and 1 (one) meeting by the Committee appointed on July 1, 2011, attended by all Committee members. At its first meeting held on February 1, 2011, the Committee whose term of office ended on June 28, 2011 approved the Compensation Policy. Minutes were kept of each Committee meeting. A breakdown of the attendance at Committee meetings is provided below: Committee members Number of meetings attended in 2011 Attendance percentage Carlo Secchi Andrea Guerra Marco De Benedetti

6 Committee appointed on July 1, 2011: Committee members Number of meetings attended in 2011 Attendance percentage Daniel Jaouen Antonio Sala Gaetano Mele Guiding Principles of the Compensation Policy 2.1. Objectives of the Compensation Policy The definition of a policy has always been a priority for the Group, which, as early as April 2004, was already defining the basic tools needed to implement a policy in line with best practices. The Group s approach to is focused on performance, awareness of market trends and alignment with the business strategy, in the interest of its stakeholders. The cornerstones of the Group s Compensation Policy are: - Clear and transparent governance; - Monitoring of market trends and practices; - Alignment of sustainability with result sustainability; - Motivation and loyalty development of all employees, with special emphasis on strategic resources. These cornerstone principles are also applied to define the of Executives with strategic Responsibilities. Accordingly, the main objectives of the policy of top management are: - Attract, motivate and retain the needed professional skills; - Promote the growth of shareholder value; - Promote sustainability over the medium/long term, with special emphasis on the interest of all stakeholders; - Ensure that there is a correlation between and actual performance, both by the Company and its managers. 6

7 Insofar as balancing fixed and variable components is concerned, the policy of top management reflects the risk profile of the Company, whose main objective consist essentially of pursuing growth both organically and through acquisitions, with the restrictions of avoiding the dilution of profitability and maintaining a strong financial position. Considering these elements, in conjunction with the low cyclicality of its industry and the consumption of food products and other consumer goods, Parmalat chose not to emphasize the variable component of the mix. Moreover, with the aim of underscoring the control function performed by the CFO (the Corporate Accounting Documents Officer), no type of incentive is provided to this executive: his is thus based exclusively on the fixed component. Specifically with regard to Article 6 of the Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies (Paragraphs 6.P.2 and 6.C.1), considering the risk profile of the Company and its industry and its strategic objectives, Parmalat believes that it should not excessively emphasize the variable component of the package. Moreover, given the limits placed on the variable amount, it does not believe that it should adopt deferral mechanisms for the variable component vested annually Criteria Used to Define Compensation The criteria used to define the of top management, consistent with the Group s policy, are: - Market practices and levels and internal levels, with the aim of ensuring external and internal fairness; the Company pursues this objective with the support of specialized independent consultants; - The Company s performance, to ensure that sustainability is aligned with result sustainability; - Personal impact, personal performance in terms of function delivery and target achievement, and assessment of the required leadership and technical competencies; - Compliance with the Company s Code of Conduct and constant support of the Group s values. The only change made to the policy in 2012, compared with the policy adopted the previous reporting year, was the elimination of indemnities payable to Executives with Strategic Responsibilities in the event of early termination of the employment relationship. In preparing this Compensation Report, Parmalat S.p.A. relied on the support of a specialized independent company. 7

8 3. Structure of the Compensation Packages 3.1. Members of the Board of s The of non-executive s is commensurate with the commitment required of each one of them, taking also into account their service on one or more committees. The of s is determined by the Meeting and, pursuant to Article 9 of the Bylaws, it does not change until a new resolution is adopted by the Meeting. The Meeting determined the total of the Board of s, which includes the individual of s who perform special functions, pursuant to the Bylaws. The Board of s, taking into account the input of the Board of Statutory Auditors, if required, decides the allocation of the total among its members. s are entitled to be reimbursed for expenses incurred to perform the tasks assigned to them. The Meeting of June 28, 2011 agreed to award to the s an additional variable, based on their actual attendance at meetings of the internal Board committees and of the Board of s. The Meeting of June 28, 2011 agreed to award to the Board of s a total annual of 1,300, euros, which the Board of s allocated as follows: - To each a fixed annual of 30, euros and an additional variable of 20, based on the attendance percentage at Board meetings. More specifically: For an attendance of less than 50% no ; For an attendance between 50% and 70% 10, euros; For an attendance of more than 70% 20, euros; - To the Chairman, an additional of 250, euros; - To the Chief Executive Officer, an additional of 500, In addition, s who serve on internal Board Committee receive an attendance fee for each committee meeting they attend. This fee was set at 6, euros for committee Chairmen and 3,900 for other committee members. 8

9 3.2. Chief Executive Officer The package of the Chief Executive Officer includes the following: - Fixed for serving as a ; - Fixed for serving as a Chief Executive Officer; - Additional variable, based on actual attendance at meetings of the Board of s. No other variable tied to the achievement of Company objectives is provided. Because his appointment to the Board of s and the award of powers of attorney occurred in the second half of 2011 and are valid until the 2011 annual financial statements are approved, the current Chief Executive Officer of Parmalat S.p.A. (Yvon Guérin) remained in the employ of B.S.A., from which he receives a commensurate with the tasks assigned to him and the activities he performs. The entire earned for his service at Parmalat is paid to B.S.A. Once the transitional phase resulting from a change in stock ownership structure and corporate governance bodies is over, the package of the Chief Executive officer will be redefined, based on the activities he performs and the tasks assigned to him, consistent with market practices and in line with the Group s policies, also with regard to the variable, as defined in Paragraph 5.2 below Executives with Strategic Responsibilities The package of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities includes the following: - Fixed ; - Annual variable (Management Incentive Program or MIP ). Because he was appointed Corporate Accounting Documents Officer, the Group Chief Financial Officer is not eligible for inclusion in incentive plans based on economic-financial indicators. 4. Balancing Compensation Components The main tools used by the Parmalat Group are: fixed, short-term incentives and long-term incentives. The approach to total employee is based on a balanced package of fixed and variable, cash and non-cash components that takes into account the Company s strategic objectives and risk profile. Specifically, given the business sector in which Parmalat operates and the characteristics of its activities: 9

10 - The amount of the variable is tied to the achievement of specific Company and personal performance targets; - These targets, which are specified and determined in advance, are directly linked with the process of defining Company objectives; - The variable component has a relatively small weight within the overall package. The fixed component is sufficiently large, in case no annual variable component is paid, due to the failure to achieve the performance targets. This approach facilitates focusing the beneficiaries not only on short-term objectives, but also on value creation over the intermediate and long term. - The variable structure calls for payments to be made once a minimum performance threshold, equal to at least 80% of the target, is achieved. If the targets of the budget approved by the Board of s are achieved, the target amount (100%) is paid. Additional payments of up to 150% of the target amount are paid for performances that are equal to or greater than 120% of the assigned target. - Parmalat adopted a total performance assessment system that takes into account: the achievement of personal objectives, the performance in performing one s functions, and technical and managerial competencies, which includes embracing Parmalat s values. 5. Components of the Compensation Package for Top Management 5.1. Fixed Compensation The fixed component represents the preponderant portion of the package. It is closely correlated with the position held by a person within the organization and remunerates the responsibilities entailed by that position. It is related to the excellence and quality of the individual contribution. The amount of the fixed awarded to each and Executive with Strategic Responsibilities is reviewed annually, in accordance with the criteria and methods illustrated in Paragraphs 2 and Variable Compensation Foreword The variable component of the is aimed at promoting the achievement of outstanding results, establishing a beneficial linkage between and performance. The fundamental objectives of the Management Incentive Program are: - To create a single reward system for all Group subsidiaries; 10

11 - To maximize the value of the Company s top performers; - To create a system that enhances the Group s competitiveness. Within Parmalat s Management Incentive Program, a target is conceived as a system of results that must be achieved. In order to effectively function as a performance incentive, each target must be S.M.A.R.T. : - Specific defined in a clear and unambiguous manner; - Measurable measured with objective indicators; - Achievable ambitious and challenging, but nevertheless perceived as achievable; - Relevant directly related to the Company s medium/long-term strategy; - Time-framed defined within a predetermined time horizon Structure and Operating Mechanism According to the program, each of the Group s s and Executives with Strategic Responsibilities must be assigned: - Group economic and financial targets: o EBITDA; o Revenues; - Departmental/Personal targets. The bonuses provided for achieving each target are stated as a percentage of the fixed and are paid in cash. The target variable can range between 20% and 40% of the fixed, depending on the post held. The variable structure calls for payments to be made once a minimum performance threshold, equal to at least 80% of the target, is achieved. If the targets of the budget approved by the Board of s are achieved, the target amount (100%) is paid. Additional payments of up to 150% of the target amount are paid for performances that are equal to or greater than 120% of the assigned target. The relationship between performance and bonus is represented by the incentivization curve shown in the chart that follows. 11

12 Bonus paid vs. target bonus 160% 150% 140% 130% 120% 110% 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 70% 80% 90% 100% 110% 120% 130% Actual performance vs. target performance (%) 5.3. Long-term Incentive Plan In 2010, the Group introduced a three-year incentive plan called Long-term Incentive Plan. At this point, the Plan s beneficiaries are the Chief Executive Officers of relevant companies of the Parmalat Group. It is a three-year plan that calls for the payment of a bonus, stated as a percentage of the gross annual fixed, upon the achievement of specific Group and country targets. The Plan s performance indicators are - Cumulative Group EBITDA for the Period; - Cumulative country EBITDA for the Period; The entire bonus is paid in cash at the end of the Plan s period. 12

13 5.4. Benefits A set of fringe benefits completes the total package, aligning internal fairness with external competitiveness. The main benefits offered include: - A Company car; - Health insurance coverage in excess of the requirements of the applicable National Collective Bargaining Agreement (manufacturing sector managers); - Housing upon relocation. 6. Individual Contracts and Treatment Provided Upon Termination of the Employment Relationship/Administration No agreement have been executed by Parmalat and its s calling for the payment of an indemnity in the event of resignation or firing/dismissal without cause or if the relationship ends due to a tender offer. Currently, no indemnity is provided for the dismissal from an office or the termination of the employment relationship for Executives with Strategic Responsibilities. As a rule, the Company does not enter into agreements that regulate ex ante the early termination of an employment relationship by the Company or the person involved, without prejudice, in all cases, to the applicable obligations pursuant to law and/or the relevant National Collective Bargaining Agreement. In addition, Parmalat S.p.A. has the option of executing a non-compete agreement with its s, Executives with Strategic Responsibilities and senior managers, at the end of their term of office or employment relationship. Pursuant to law and in accordance with practice, these agreements may call for the payment of a consideration based on the gross annual and related to the length and scope of the restrictions imposed by the agreement. These restrictions apply to the business sector within which the Group operates at the time the agreement is executed and to the Group s geographic footprint. The scope varies depending on the office held at the time the employment relationship is terminated, usually not more than one year s. 7. Policy Implementation Process 7.1. Description of the Main Company Reward Processes The Annual Salary Revision Plan is prepared and communicated annually to the Group Human Resources Department, concurrently with the budget, of which it is an integral part. With regard to Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, the Chief Executive Officer, based on the criteria defined in Item 2, determines fixed increases. 13

14 The annual Management Incentive Program ( MIP ), which constitutes the variable portion of the system, calls for the payment of a variable tied to the achievement of economic and financial targets and personal targets assigned annually to the beneficiaries of the Management Incentive Program, including Executives with Strategic Responsibilities. Each year, the Chief Executive Officer defines the individual targets of Executives with Strategic Responsibilities, consistent with the budget and the strategic plan approved by the Board of s. 14
