DISCLAIMER

The new shares to be issued as described in this Prospectus (the “New Shares”) will not be offered in any jurisdiction, other than Italy and France, where such offer requires an ad hoc authorization by local authorities (the “Other Countries”). No security may be offered or sold in the Other Countries except pursuant to a specific authorization under applicable local laws and regulations or to an applicable exemption from the applicable requirements. The New Shares have not been, and are not intended to be, registered under regulations applicable in countries other than Italy and France; therefore they may not be offered or assigned, directly or indirectly, in the Other Countries. In particular, the offer of the New Shares (the “Offer”) is not being, and will not be, made, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States and may not be accepted directly or indirectly, in or from the United States through the facility of a national securities exchange of the United States or by use of the mail of, or by any means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign communication or commerce of, the United States (including, without limitation, the post, facsimile transmission, telex, email, telephone, the Internet or any other electronic mechanism or medium). No offer document, nor any accompanying letter of transmittal nor any other document related to the Offer is being mailed, and must be mailed, or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from the United States, including to holders of ordinary shares or savings shares with registered addresses in the United States or to persons whom the Offeror or its agents know to be trustees, nominees or custodians holding ordinary shares or savings shares for such persons. Persons receiving such documents (including, but not limited to, custodians, nominees and trustees) must not distribute, send or transmit any of them in, into or from the United States through the facility of a national securities exchange of the United States or by the use of the mail of, or by any other means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign communication or commerce of, the United States (including, but not limited to, facsimile transmission, telex, e-mail, telephone, the Internet or any other electronic mechanism or medium). Doing so may render invalid any purported acceptance of the Offer. The securities referred to herein have not been, and are not intended to be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) and may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, into the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements applicable under the Securities Act.
