| The payments made by the Shareholders in proportion   to their shareholdings are agreed to be non-interest bearing.  The Company may raise finance from its own   Shareholders, upon the condition that the financing Shareholder is the holder   of a percentage of share capital of no less than 2% of the share capital and   has been registered in the Register of Shareholders for a period of not less   than three months. The Company will have a duty to repay principal and   interest. In all other cases, the payments made by the Shareholders are on   account of future increases in the share capital and, therefore, may not be   considered interest-bearing nor repaid without a formal resolution by the   Shareholders, in accordance with Legislative Decree 385/1993 and all of its   enacting provisions. |

|   | Matters and business sectors closely connected to   the company’s business sector are those stated in the Company’s purpose. |

The following shall be determined to be the result at the end of the balloting: appointed to the office of the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors shall be the Auditor candidate indicated number 1 (one) on the list which has obtained the greatest number of votes; appointed to the office of regular Auditors shall be the candidates indicated respectively in number 2 (two) on the list which has obtained the greatest number of votes and number 1 (one) on the list which has obtained the second greatest number; appointed to the office of alternate Auditors, the Auditors indicated as alternate in number 1 (one) on the list which has obtained the greatest number of votes, and on the list which has obtained the second greatest number.

In the event of two or more lists showing the same number of votes, a new vote shall be taken in order to obtain an unequivocal result. In the event of submission of a single list of candidates and regular and alternate Auditors, they shall be elected from that list.

In the event of the termination of an Auditor’s office, the alternate belonging to the same list as the Auditor to be replaced shall succeed.

When, for whatever reason, the Chairman has to be replaced, the chair shall be taken by the other Auditor elected from the list which has obtained the greatest number of votes.

The Shareholders’ Meeting called to appoint the Board of Statutory Auditors in accordance with the law shall act in compliance with the above-stated principle of representation of the minority; moreover, at least one regular auditor and one alternate auditor shall be enrolled in the registry of chartered auditors and shall have practised the audit profession for at least three years.  Regarding the appointment of the Auditors who are not elected, for whatever reasons, in observance of the rules set forth in the preceding paragraphs, the Shareholders shall act as provided for by law.
