PLAN FOR MERGER BY INCORPORATION of 'BN Sardegna di Navigazione S.r.l.' into 'BN di Navigazione S.p.A.'

Merger project

Pursuant to Article 2501-ter of the Italian Civil Code, the administrative bodies of 'BN di Navigazione S.p.A.' and 'BN Sardegna di Navigazione S.r.l.' have prepared the following merger plan.

Pursuant to Article 2501-ter of the Italian Civil Code, the administrative bodies of 'BN di Navigazione S.p.A.' and 'BN Sardegna di Navigazione S.r.l.' have prepared the following merger plan.

PARTICIPATING COMPANIES

  • BN di Navigazione S.p.A. with registered office in Portoferraio (LI), Calata Italy, no. 24, share capital 1,000,000.00 euros, fully paid-up, with tax code and registration number recorded in the Livorno Companies’ Register: 01968710994 – R.E.A. 147.146 (acquiring company). The company is active in the maritime cabotage sector, and more specifically in the transport of goods and passengers by means of its own or chartered ferries; in the course of its activities, it has also acquired shareholdings that are instrumental to the business.
  • BN Sardegna di Navigazione S.r.l. with registered office in Sassari (SS), Piazza Ruju no. 6, share capital 10,000.00 euros, fully paid-up, with tax code and registration number recorded in the Sassari Companies’ Register: 02386710996 – R.E.A. 193.997 (merged company). The company operates in the maritime cabotage sector and more specifically in the transport of goods and passengers by chartered ferries and is currently inactive as it is unable to invest in appropriate initiatives.

PURPOSE OF THE MERGER

The companies involved in the transaction are part of the same economic interest group. The Group has long been pursuing the goal of economic strengthening through specialisation and simplification of its various activities, implementing important strategic choices on the business, financial and administrative levels.

The merger of the two companies would bring multiple benefits to the Group, which would see a reduction in structural costs and the rationalisation of administrative activities, optimising the various resources available to the companies.

As a result of the corporate reorganisation proposed with this merger project, an optimisation of the management of resources and economic-financial flows will be achieved. Associated with the operational purposes of the merger are some significant synergies resulting from the elimination of corporate and administrative duplications and overlaps, with consequent savings in general costs due to the exercise of business activities through a single company instead of the current two. The merger by incorporation has been identified as the corporate transaction that can meet the current needs of the two companies and enable the achievement of the objectives described above.

Since BN Sardegna di Navigazione S.r.l. is wholly owned by BN di Navigazione S.p.A., no exchange ratio will be determined, as set forth by Article 2505 of the Italian Civil Code, nor will the manner in which the shares will be assigned be indicated, nor will profit participation be granted; for the same purpose, there is also no obligation to prepare the balance sheets pursuant to Article 2501-quater, the reports of the directors and experts pursuant to Articles 2501-quinquies and 2501-sexies of the Italian Civil Code. The transaction should therefore be assessed as a whole as a single step towards the desired corporate strategy.

Pursuant to Article 2501 of the Italian Civil Code, we inform you that the companies participating in the merger are in a normal state of operation, therefore they are not in liquidation and have not started the distribution of assets.

The operational modalities of the merger were also defined.

The acquiring company will continue to operate in the same maritime cabotage sector, which is the primary activity of the Group.
