of legislative decree n. 58 of February 24, 1998 with respect to third-party
companies in the event that such agreements regard at least 10% of the voting
stock if the companies concerned are listed or 20% if the companies concerned
are not listed.

Calculation of the aforesaid limit on stock ownership (3%) shall also take into
account the shares held through fiduciaries and/or nominees, or in general
through intermediaries.

Voting rights attributable to shares held in excess of the aforesaid limit may
not be exercised and the voting rights of each of the parties concerned by the
ownership limit will be reduced pro rata, unless a different prior indication
has been jointly given by the shareholders concerned. A resolution passed with
the votes of shares held in violation of the limit may be challenged in court
under section 2377 of the Civil Code, provided that the resolution would not
have been passed without the votes relating to shares held in violation of the
limit.

The shares for which voting rights may not be exercised shall be counted,
however, for the purpose of determining the quorum at shareholders' meetings.

6.2      Pursuant to paragraph 1 of section 2 of decree-law n. 332 of May 31,

the Treasury, the Budget and Economic Planning - in agreement with the Minister
of Industry, Commerce and Crafts - shall hold the following special powers:

a)       approval to be granted expressly when persons or entities affected by
         the limit on stock ownership specified in section 3 of decree-law n.
         332 of May 31, 1994, converted with revisions by Law n. 474 of July 30,
         1994, acquire significant holdings, by which is meant - as established
         by a decree of the Minister of the Treasury, the Budget and Economic
         Planning - those equal to or exceeding 3% of the share capital
         represented by shares with voting rights at ordinary shareholders'
         meetings. The approval must be granted within sixty days from the date
         of notice to be given by the Board of Directors when the request is
         made for registration in the shareholders' register. Until approval is
         granted and in any case after the deadline has passed without the
         approval being granted, the transferee may not exercise the voting
         rights - and any other right other than economic rights - attributable
         to the shares that represent the significant holding. In the event that
         approval is denied or the deadline expires without the approval being
         granted, the transferee must dispose of the shares in question within
         one year. In case of failure to comply, upon request by the Minister of
         the Treasury, the Budget and Economic Planning a court will order the
         sale of the shares that represent the significant holding according to
         the procedures specified in section 2359-ter of the Civil Code;

b)       approval to be granted expressly as a condition for the validity of the
         agreements referred to in section 122 of legislative decree n. 58 of
         1998 in the event that they regard at least one-twentieth of the
         capital stock consisting of shares with voting rights at ordinary
         shareholders' meetings or a lower percentage to be established by a
         decree of the Minister of the Treasury, the Budget and Economic
         Planning. Until approval is granted and in any case after the deadline
         has passed without the approval being granted, the shareholders
         participating in the agreement may not exercise the voting

                                                                               9

         rights and any other right other than economic rights. For purposes of
         granting approval, the CONSOB shall inform the Minister of the

         agreements and pacts described in this Article of which it has received

         CONSOB. In the event that approval is denied or the deadline expires
         without the approval being granted, the agreements shall not be

         commitments made when they joined the pacts referred to in the
         above-mentioned section 122 of legislative decree n. 58 of 1998,
         resolutions adopted with the decisive vote of the aforesaid
         shareholders may be challenged in court;

c)       veto of the adoption of resolutions regarding dissolution of the
         Company; transfer of its business, merger or demerger; transfer of the
         registered office abroad; change in the corporate purpose; or
         modification of the bylaws so as to abolish or modify the powers
         specified under a), b), c) and d) of this clause;

d)       appointment of a Director and a regular member of the Board of
         Statutory Auditors. In the event that the Director or the member of the
         Board of Statutory Auditors appointed in this way is terminated from
         office, the Minister of the Treasury, the Budget and Economic Planning,
         in agreement with the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Crafts, will
         appoint a substitute.

The persistence of the reasons that justify the clause referred to in paragraph
1 of this Article 6.2 shall be subject to review after a period of five years
from its inclusion, partly in consideration of the progress made in the

Minister of the Treasury, the Budget and Economic Planning, in agreement with
the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Crafts.

All those entitled to vote shall vote for only one slate.

The procedure for electing the Directors shall be as follows:

a)       four-fifths of the Directors to be elected, rounding down any fraction
         to the unit, will be drawn from the slate that obtains a majority of
         the votes cast by the shareholders in the order in which they are
         listed on the slate;

b)       the remaining Directors will be drawn from the other slates; for this
         purpose, the votes obtained by these slates will be divided
         successively by one, two, three and so forth

                                                                              13

CORPORATE BYLAWS

         according to the progressive numbers of the Directors to be elected.
         The numbers obtained in this way will be attributed to the candidates
         of such slates in the order in which they rank in the slate. The
         numbers thus attributed to the candidates of the various slates will be
         arranged in decreasing order in a single ranking. The candidates who
         obtain the highest numbers will become Directors.

         In the event that more than one candidate has obtained the same number,
         the candidate of the slate that has not yet elected a Director or that
         has elected the fewest Directors will be appointed Director.

         In the event that no Director has been elected yet from any of these
         slates or that the same number of Directors has been elected from each
         slate, the candidate of the slate that has obtained the most votes will
         be appointed Director. If there is a tie in terms of both numbers
         assigned and votes obtained by each slate, the entire shareholders'
         meeting will vote again and the candidate who obtains a simple majority
         of the votes will be appointed Director;

c)       when less than the entire Board of Directors is being elected, the
         shareholders' meeting will resolve according to the majorities provided
         for by the law, without following the procedure specified above.

17.4     Even during a Board's term, a shareholders' meeting may change the
number of the members of the Board of Directors within the limit referred to in
the first paragraph of this Article and proceed to elect them. The term of the
Directors so elected shall end at the same time as that of the Directors in
office.

17.5     Should one or more vacancies occur on the Board during the accounting
period, steps shall be taken in accordance with section 2386 of the Civil Code,
except with regard to the Director appointed pursuant to Article 6.2, d) of
these bylaws. If one or more of the Directors leaving their offices vacant were
drawn from a slate also containing unelected candidates, they shall be replaced
by appointing, in progressive order, persons drawn from the slate to which the
Director in question belonged, provided that said persons are still eligible and
willing to accept the directorship. In the event that the majority of the
Directors' offices becomes vacant, the entire Board shall be deemed to have
resigned and must promptly call a meeting of the shareholders to elect a new
Board.

ARTICLE 18

18.1     If a shareholders' meeting has not elected a Chairman of the Board, the
Board shall elect one of its members to that position. It may elect a Deputy
Chairman, who shall stand in for the Chairman in the event of his or her
