In compliance with the provisions of Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001, the Eni Board of Directors has appointed a collegial-structured 231 Supervisory Body, with the role of supervising the effectiveness of the Eni Model 231 ("Model 231") and assessing its adequacy.
The Secretary of the 231 Supervisory Body is Gennaro Mallardo, Head of “Business Integrity Compliance".
Based on a proposal from the CEO in agreement with the Chairman, after consultation with the Nomination Committee and, for the external members, with an opinion from the Board of Statutory Auditors, the Board of Directors determines the composition of the 231 Supervisory Body, appoints its members and the Chairman, who is chosen among the external members, and establishes the relative remunerations.
The Eni 231 Supervisory Body currently comprises 5 members, with the majority not belonging to company structures. External members are selected among professionals with proven skills and experience in economics, organisational and internal control systems and corporate administrative responsibility.
The 231 Supervisory Body term in office coincides with the term of the Board of Directors appointing it. The term of office expires on the date of the Shareholders' Meeting convened to approve the financial statements for the last financial year in the term of the Board of Directors that appointed it. The Body still continues to perform its functions on an interim basis until the new members of the 231 Supervisory Body are appointed. External members may not be re-elected for more than three consecutive mandates.
The functions of the 231 Supervisory Body are defined as follows:
supervision of the effective performance of the Model 231 and monitoring its implementation and updating;

analysis to check that the effectiveness requirements of the Model 231 are maintained over time;
reporting to the Company on the need to update Model 231, where adjustments are required in relation to changed company and/or regulatory conditions.
