****
The issue of the Notes is part of a refinancing transaction of the corporate long-term debt of the Company for an aggregate amount of more than Euro 1 billion. The transaction allows to further strengthen the Group’s financial structure, increases its average duration by extending it to approximately 5 years, optimises the timing to fulfil the obligations (taking over 80% of maturities beyond 2020) and concurrently reduces the cost of corporate indebtedness.
Such transaction, together with, among others, the notes issue carried out in 2016, allows the Group to refinance about 95% of its corporate debt, taking advantage of contingent favourable conditions of the credit market.
Moreover, the refinancing transaction sets the basis for the Group’s further development significantly beyond the current Industrial Plan.
