Resignation of Francesca Sandrolini as Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors and replacement with Claudia Mezzabotta as Substitute Statutory Auditor

Milan, 22 April 2022 – BFF Bank S.p.A. ("BFF" or the "Bank") announces that, today, Ms. Francesca Sandrolini, Statutory Auditor and Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors, has resigned from her position with immediate effect, for exclusively personal reasons.

In this regard, Ms. Sandrolini - wishing BFF a successful future - stated that her decision had exclusively been motivated by personal reasons, related to the unexpected health situation of a close family member, which will require "a particularly significant extra-work commitment, incompatible with the time needed to adequately fulfil her role as Chairman of the Bank's Board of Statutory Auditors".

Francesca Sandrolini was appointed from the list submitted by Studio Legale Trevisan & Associati on behalf of a group of minority shareholders during the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting held on 31st March 2022.

There are no indemnities or other benefits due following termination of office.

Pursuant to Article IA.2.6.7 of the Instructions to the Regulation of Markets organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., it should also be noted that, on the basis of the information made available to the Bank, as of today, Ms. Francesca Sandrolini does not hold, either directly or indirectly, any BFF ordinary shares.

Accordingly, pursuant to the law and the Articles of Association, as of today's date, Claudia Mezzabotta, the current Substitute Statutory Auditor elected from the minority list submitted to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 25th March 2021, shall take over as Standing Auditor and shall remain in office until the next Shareholders' Meeting.

Claudia Mezzabotta's curriculum vitae, together with the list of positions held, is available at the Bank's registered office and on the Bank's website at Governance > Board of Statutory Auditors.
