Pursuant to article 529 decies of the Capital Companies Law, all proposals for the appointment or re-election of directors must be accompanied in all cases by a justifying report from the Board of Directors, assessing the competence, experience and merits of the proposed candidate, and which is to be attached to the minutes of the Shareholders' Meeting or of the Board meeting. According to subarticle 4 of that article, the proposed appointment and re-election of independent directors falls, in the Company's case, the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee.

In this regard, articles 17, 20.3 and 22 of the Regulations of the Board of Directors of Prosegur establish that the powers of the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee include proposing or reporting proposals of appointment, re-election or separation of independent and non-independent directors, respectively, evaluating, as appropriate, the quality of the work and the dedication to the post during the preceding term of office of the proposed directors.

The proposed re-election and appointment of independent directors of Prosegur that is submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting has originated from the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee, for the purposes of subarticle 4 of the above-mentioned article 529 decies of the Capital Companies Law.

Pursuant to article 22.1 of the Company's bylaws, the office of Company director has a term of three years.

Accordingly, the Board proposes to the Shareholders' Meeting first of all to re-elect Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva as an independent director at the proposal of the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee.

In addition, the Board of Directors reports that the other non-executive director Mr. Eugenio Ruiz-Gálvez Priego is not proposed for re-election after holding the post of director of the Company for more than fifteen years. Consequently, Mr. Ruiz-Gálvez will cease to be a director of the Company on occasion of the 2023 Shareholders' Meeting,

the Board of Directors thanking him for his commitment and contributions throughout the years during which he has held the post.

In order to cover the vacancy that Mr. Ruiz-Gálvez will leave, the Board of Directors, at the proposal of the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee, proposes to the Shareholders' Meeting, secondly, to appoint Ms. Natalia Gamero del Castillo Calleja as an independent director.

Each proposal for the re-election and appointment of directors shall be subject to a separate and independent vote, in accordance with the provisions of article 197 bis of the Capital Companies Law.

The first part of this report sets forth the analysis of the composition and performance of the Board of Directors which supports, jointly, the proposed re-election and appointment of directors of the Company that is submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting, and the second part includes the individual report on each candidate with the information necessary for the shareholders to be able to cast their vote on the proposal made.

1. COLLECTIVE REPORT

The Board of Directors provides business leadership to the Group in a context of prudent and efficient control which permits the assessment and management of risk. The Board sets the Group's strategic objectives, ensures that it has the financial and human resources necessary to reach its objectives and reviews the performance of the management team. It also establishes the values and standards of the Group and ensures that the Group's obligations to its shareholders and to other interested parties are understood and performed. The duties of the Board are stipulated in the Board Regulations, available on the Company's website.

The Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee has analyzed the current composition of the Board of Directors, formed by nine directors, one of whom has the status of executive director (the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Christian Gut Revoredo) and eight the status of non- executive directors, four of whom are independent (Mr. Fernando Vives Ruiz, Mr. Fernando D'Ornellas Silva, Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva and Ms. Isela Costantini), two are nominee directors (Ms. Helena Revoredo Delvecchio, Chairperson of the Board of Directors, and Ms. Chantal Gut Revoredo) and another two are external directors (Mr. Rodrigo Zulueta Galilea and Mr. Eugenio Ruiz-Gálvez Priego).

Of the nine members of the Board of Directors, three are women, meaning that 33% of the Board is female, being one of them the Chairperson of the Board and also the individual who indirectly controls the Company.

The Board of Directors has two specific committees to assist it in effectively fulfilling its responsibilities: the Audit Committee, formed by three non-executive directors (two independent, Mr. Fernando D'Ornellas Silva and Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva, and one external, Mr. Rodrigo Zulueta Galilea) and the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee, formed by four non- executive directors (three independent, Mr. Fernando Vives Ruiz, Mr. Fernando D'Ornellas Silva and Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva and one nominee, Ms. Chantal Gut Revoredo), both of which are chaired by independent directors.

In view of the forgoing and, specifically, in order to fill the vacancy left on the Board by Mr. Ruiz-Gálvez, the Sustainability, Corporate Governance, Appointments and Remuneration Committee has considered that, in light of the Group's complexity, and due to the important international diversification process carried out by the Company in recent years, it is recommendable to include on the Board of Directors a director belonging to the gender that is less represented on the Board of Directors, with an international background and broad expertise in the functioning, challenges and opportunities offered by the market.

In accordance with the Director Selection Policy, this proposal for the re-election and appointment of directors is based on a prior analysis of the skills that board members must have, and of the availability of the candidates. In addition, the Board of Directors considers that, should the proposals for re-election and appointment of directors covered by this report be approved, these directors will contribute to the diversity of knowledge, experiences, age and gender on the board.

In this respect, the experience, background and professional profile of the directors and of the candidates whose re-election and appointment are submitted for approval at the Shareholders' Meeting evidence their merits and ability to hold their posts on the Company's Board of Directors and attest to their expertise and knowledge in a number of different sectors and matters that are relevant for the Company.

Accordingly, if the Shareholders' Meeting approves the proposed re-election of Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva and the proposed appointment of Ms. Natalia Gamero del Castillo Calleja, both with the category of independent director, the Board of Directors of Prosegur will be made up of five independent directors, two non- executive nominee directors, one executive director and one other external director. In addition, as a consequence of the above-mentionedre-election and appointment, of the nine members of the Board of Directors, four will be women, thereby reaching a 44% female presence, thus complying with the recommendation of good corporate governance and future regulations on the representation of the under-represented sex on the Board.

Considering the Company's shareholding structure, the resulting composition of the Board of Directors as a consequence of the proposals analyzed in this report is deemed suitable, overall, and from this viewpoint, it is appropriate to propose to the Shareholders' Meeting, for its approval, the re-election of Mr. Ángel Durández Adeva and the appointment of Ms. Natalia Gamero del Castillo Calleja.
