  • not exceed the higher between the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent purchase bid on the MTA.


The purchases will be made on the MTA, to ensure equal treatment among shareholders, pursuant to Article 144-bis, paragraph 1, letter b), of Consob Regulation No. 11971/1999, and in accordance with the provisions of the aforementioned Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 on market abuse and with Article 3 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.

The transactions carried out under the Programme will be reported to Consob and disclosed to the market, in detailed and aggregate form, within the terms and conditions set forth in Article 2 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.
