AGENDA ITEM SEVENTEEN

Approval of the Strategic Incentive 2024-2026, which includes payment in Company shares.

To approve the long-term variable compensation plan referred to as the "Strategic Incentive 2024-2026" (the "2024-2026 Incentive"), which includes payments in Company shares, insofar as ENDESA, S.A.'s executive Director is included among its beneficiaries, with the following key characteristics:

  1. The 2024-2026 Incentive is a long-term compensation scheme primarily aimed at rewarding contributions to the business strategy and the long-term sustainability of the Company by individuals in positions of greater responsibility.

  2. The 2024-2026 Incentive applies to the Executive Director and all other executives of the Endesa Group holding strategic responsibility, as determined by the Board of Directors.

  3. The performance period will be three years from 1 January 2024, for the 20242026 Incentive.

  4. The 2024-2026 Incentive allocates an incentive to the beneficiaries that includes the right to receive: (i) a certain number of ordinary shares of ENDESA, S.A. (the "Shares") and (ii) a monetary payment linked to a target, subject to the conditions and any potential changes resulting from operation of the Plan.

    As relates to the accrued incentive, the first 65% of the target under the Plan shall be paid out fully in Shares.

    The monetary amount to be paid out is calculated as the difference in the total incentive accrued and the portion paid out in Shares.
    If the maximum number of shares is not a whole number, the amount of Shares to be allocated to each recipient shall be calculated by rounding the amount to the nearest whole number (rounding down for values of 0.49 or less and rounding up for values above 0.49).

  5. Accrual of the 2024-2026 Incentive is linked to achievement of four targets during the performance period:

    (a) Average Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of Endesa compared to average TSR of the selected benchmark, Euro-Stoxx Utilities Index, for the 2024-2026 period (45% weighting).

    (b) ROIC (Return on Invested Capital) – WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital) (30% weighting)

    (c) Reduction in CO2 Emissions (CO2): reduction of specific CO2 emissions (gCO2/kWh) of Endesa by 2026, according to the thermal gap existing in the Spanish mainland's electricity system (15% weighting).

    (d) Percentage of female managers and middle managers in relation to the total number of managers and middle managers by 2026 (10% weighting).

    For each of the targets a threshold level is set beyond which the target would be considered to have been met. Two target over-performance levels are also established – performance beyond the first level, equivalent to 150% of the incentive base (target) and performance beyond the second level equivalent to a maximum 180% of the incentive base (target). Therefore, variable compensation levels accruable under the 2024-2026 Incentive will range from 0% to 180% of the incentive base (the incentive base (target) equals 100% achievement).

  6. The target assigned to each beneficiary under the 2024-2026 Incentive will be as provided in their individual contracts, if addressed therein, or otherwise, in the relevant Group policy defining different target percentage levels based on the level of responsibility.

    The maximum number of Shares that may be paid out under the 2024-2026 Incentive is 119,323. This maximum number of shares represents 0.011% of ENDESA, S.A.'s share capital as at the date this resolution is proposed.
    The target for the Chief Executive Officer is €518,000, and the maximum number of shares that he may receive is 17,775.

  7. Both payments in the form of delivery of shares and cash payments shall be made subject to the payment and deferral rules established in the Compensation Policy and by the Board of Directors and, specifically, shall be made subject to the relevant malus and clawback clauses.

  8. It is resolved to delegate to the Board of Directors, with express power of substitution, the authority to implement at the time and in the manner it deems convenient, formalize, amend, construe, clarify and execute the 2024-2026 Incentive, adopting all resolutions and executing as many public or private documents as may be necessary or convenient to ensure the full effectiveness thereof, with the power to change, rectify, amend and supplement and, in general, to adopt any resolutions and perform any actions necessary or merely convenient for the effective implementation and operation of the 2024-2026 Incentive, including but not limited to, the following powers:

    b) To draft, sign and submit before any public or private bodies, the beneficiaries or any other party, any documents and supplementary communications which may be necessary or convenient for the purposes of implementing and executing the 2024-2026 Incentive, granting rights and delivering incentives, including, as the case may be, the relevant prior notice and informational prospectuses.

    c) To perform any actions or processes or file any returns before any person, entity or registry, public or private, in order to obtain authorizations or verifications as required to grant the rights and to pay the incentives.

    d) To adapt the contents of the 2024-2026 Incentive to the corporate circumstances or transactions that may arise during the term thereof, in the terms deemed convenient and, to the extent required or recommended by any legal provisions applicable to any of the beneficiaries, or as may be necessary for legal, regulatory, operating or similar reasons, to adapt the general conditions.

    e) To draft and publish any announcements which may be necessary or convenient.
