Election of the Board of Directors

Pursuant to the Consolidated Financial Act and the Bylaws, the members of the Board of Directors will be elected by slate voting. The outgoing Board of Directors does not present a slate of candidates. Slates of candidates for the office of Director may be presented by shareholders who, alone or together with other shareholders, represent at least 0.5% of the share capital.
The preparation, filing and publication of the slates shall be made in accordance with the modalities and terms prescribed or referred to in article 14 of the Bylaws, to which reference is made for everything that is not expressly indicated below.
As far as the presentation of the slates is concerned, please remind that:

• according to article 14.3, paragraph 2, of the Bylaws, each slate must include at least two candidates possessing the requirements of independence established by the law (that is to say, those provided for the statutory auditors of listed companies), distinctly mentioning such candidates and listing one of them first on the slate;
• since ENEL S.p.A. controls ENEL Factor S.p.a., a company registered in the general list of the financial intermediaries provided by article 106 of Legislative Decree No. 385 of September 1, 1993 (in accordance with the text currently applicable, pending the implementation of the amendments made by Legislative Decree No. 141 of August 13, 2010), the candidates for the office of the Board of Directors must possess – in addition to the requisites of honorableness established for the statutory auditors of listed companies, in accordance with the provisions of article 147-quinquies of the Consolidated Financial Act – also the requisites of honorableness specified, by Decree No. 517 of December 30, 1998 of the Minister of the Treasury, the Budget, and Economic Planning, for the representatives of entities which participate into the equity of financial intermediaries;
• in the event that Directors leave office before the end of their term, article 14.5 of the Bylaws provides for a mechanism of mandatory cooptation requiring that, whenever possible, such Directors be replaced by candidates from the same slate who were not elected;
• implementing the recommendations of the Self-regulation Code of listed companies, on December 19, 2006 the Board of Directors adopted a specific policy regarding the maximum number of offices that its members may hold on the boards of directors and the boards of statutory auditors of other companies of significant size in order to ensure that the persons concerned have sufficient time to effectively perform the role they have on the Board of Directors of the Company. The document containing this policy can be consulted on the Company's website (in section Group/Governance/Board of Directors).

Pursuant to article 147-ter of the Consolidated Financial Act, the slates, together with the necessary documentation, shall be filed by shareholders at the Company, no later than twenty-five days before the Meeting (i.e. by April 4, 2011). The filing of the slates and of the relevant documentation shall be made by hand delivery at the office of the Department of Corporate Affairs of Enel S.p.A. (Viale Regina Margherita No. 137 – 00198, Rome, from Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm) or using the specific section of the Company's website dedicated to the Meeting, or by fax to No. +39 06/83055028; at the filing of the slates, information allowing for the identification of those who submit the slates shall also be provided.
The ownership of the minimum equity interest to the share capital of the Company required for the purpose of submitting the slates is determined according to the shares that are registered in the name of the shareholder on the date on which the slates are filed at the Company. The relevant certificate, released by an authorized intermediary, may be provided also after the filing of the slates but, in any case, no later than twenty-one days before the date of the Meeting (i.e. no later than April 8, 2011, which is the deadline for the publication of the slates by the Company).
Please remind that the Self-regulation Code of listed companies recommends that, together with the slates, exhaustive written information on the personal and professional characteristics of the candidates – which is also required by article 144-octies of Consob Resolution No. 11971 of May 14, 1999 – is filed at the registered office. The Self-regulation Code of listed companies also recommends that this information – which must be promptly published on the Company's website together with the slates – is accompanied by a statement as to whether or not the candidates qualify as independent according to article 3 of the aforesaid Code.
We remind you that those who submit a minority slate are also subject to the recommendations made by Consob in Recommendation No. DEM/9017893 of February 26, 2009.
It should also be noted, in the end, that according to the Bylaws, for the purpose of identifying the Directors to be elected, candidates of lists that receive a number of votes amounting to less than a half of the percentage required for submitting the lists are not taken into account.
