criteria

to the 5G ecosystem

Jaime Velázquez

Secretary

Compliance with the Code of Good Governance

60/64 Recommendation

  • Recommendation 16:
    Proportional representation of Proprietary Directors out of the total of non-executive Directors
    • In 2019 proprietary directors represented a percentage higher than their shareholding: 4 out of 11 (36% of the Board excluding the CEO vs. 29.9% stake)
    • The CNMV mitigates the strict criterion of proportionality when there are few significant shareholders (6 in the case of Cellnex, with more than 3%)
  • Recommendation 48:
    Separation Appointments and Remuneration Commission
    • Not justified by workload
    • A separation may be considered in light of future developments in the Company

Compliance with the Code of Good Governance

60/64 Recommendation

  • Recommendation 62:
    Shares given as remuneration may not be sold within a 3-year period
    • Entitlement to shares received by the CEO is generated in a 3-year period, after which they may not be transferred for a further 2 years. This is considered a sufficient period of time in terms of loyalty and to avoid speculation
  • Recommendation 64:
    CEO compensation may not exceed 2 years' total compensation
    • CEO compensation is for 2 years
    • In addition to this, there is compensation equivalent to 1 year through the "post-contractual"non-competition agreement
