2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Group highlights

INTRODUCTION

Impregilo group closed 2008 with an operating profit (EBIT) and a profit for the year, amounting to euro 189.1 million and euro 167.6 million, respectively, compared to euro 131.2 million and euro 40.8 million for 2007. The parent’s results were also positive with EBIT at euro 138.9 million (2007: euro 27.5 million) and profit for the year at euro 83.0 million (2007: loss of euro 1.9 million). These results confirm the group’s development and growth despite the very critical domestic and international economic climate, which is not expected to improve in the short term. The crisis which hit the financial markets in October 2008 spread rapidly to all the Italian and international industrial production and services sectors. The main economic and financial growth indicators continue to be negative in early 2009 and the short-term outlook is not at all positive. The judicial issues related to the USW Campania projects continued in this complex scenario and positive developments were only seen in the second half of the year following the Supreme Court’s cancellation of the precautionary seizure measure ordered by the Public Prosecutor. Following this cancellation, in August, the Naples Review Court ordered the immediate return of the seized assets. This decision has been appealed against with the Supreme Court by the Naples Public Prosecutor and the related ruling has yet to be handed down. The group’s diversification of its activities into three core business segments, Construction, Concessions and Engineering & Plant Construction, 14 as well as into different geographical segments continue to be a key strategic element easing the above effects and allowing it to maintain a balanced financial position, which has enabled it to achieve the aforesaid positive results for the year. 2008 revenue amounted to euro 2,957.6 million, up 12.6% on the previous year (euro 2,626.9 million). The group’s operating profit (EBIT) was euro 189.1 million (euro 131.2 million), with a return on sales of 6.4% (5.0%). The operating profit for 2007 included the non-recurring accrual of euro 50.0 million for the USW Campania projects. The Construction and Concessions segments contributed positively to this result with euro 205.9 million (R.o.S. of 11.5%) and euro 29.3 million (R.o.S. of 17.3%), respectively. The Engineering & Plant Construction segment had already encountered difficulties related to certain desalination projects in the second half of 2007, which led to an overall decrease in profitability on certain contracts again in 2008 resulting in an operating loss of euro 15.6 million. Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments came to a negative euro 4.6 million compared to a positive euro 3.4 million for 2007. Specifically, net gains on investments included the gain realised on the sale of the group’s investment in the Brazilian associate Ponte de Pedra S.A. (euro 67.5 million). Profits from discontinued operations amounted to euro 35.6 million (losses of euro 30.8 million) and include settlement of certain clauses included in the agreements for the sale of the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte, entered into in 2006 (euro 40.6 million), and the losses on the USW Campania projects (euro 5.1 million). The profit attributable to the shareholders of the parent for the year is euro 167.6 million (euro 40.8 million for 2007). It includes the gain on the sale of the group’s investment in the Brazilian associate Ponte de Pedra S.A. (euro 67.5 million) and the profits from discontinued operations (as above). The group’s net financial position at 31 December 2008 is a positive euro 42.6 million compared to a negative euro 53.7 million at the end of the previous year. The group acquired new contracts worth euro 2,999.2 million during the year. At year end, the group’s order backlog amounts to euro 16.3 billion, including euro 8.9 billion brought in by the Construction and Engineering & Plant Construction segments and euro 7.4 billion related to the residual Concessions segment order backlog. The parent’s 2008 revenue amounted to euro 1,667.0 million, up 13.3% on the previous year (euro 1,471.3 million). Its operating profit (EBIT) amounted to euro 138.9 million (euro 27.5 million) with a return on sales of 8.3% (1.9%). The operating profit for 2007 included the non-recurring accrual of euro 50.0 million for the USW Campania projects. The parent’s financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments came to a positive euro 7.1 million compared to a positive euro 7.6 million in 2007. Its profit for the year is euro 83.0 million compared to a loss of euro 1.9 million for 2007. The parent’s net financial position is a negative euro 475.0 million (31 December 2007: euro 398.1 million) with a debt/equity ratio of below 0.6.

ANALYSIS OF IMPREGILO GROUP’S AND PARENT’S FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR

This section includes the group’s and parent’s reclassified income statements and balance sheets, as well as their financial positions at the end of 2008. It also includes a summary of the main changes in the consolidated and separate income statements with those for the year ended 31 December 2007 and balance sheets in comparison with the related figures at 31 December 2007. The note numbers given in the schedules refer to the notes to the consolidated and separate financial statements which give a detailed analysis thereof. Unless otherwise indicated, figures are provided in millions of Euros and those shown in brackets relate to the previous year. The paragraph “Alternative performance indicators” in the “Other information” section gives a definition of the financial statements indicators used to present the group’s and parent’s financial position and results of operations for the year.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS In order to give a complete picture of changes in the group’s results of operations and financial position during 2008, a brief overview of the international macro-economic situation is set out below, continuing the disclosure given in the 2007 Annual Report. For the first time in the last few years, the international economy saw a generalised slowdown in industrial production in 2007. This trend 22 worsened during 2008 following the negative developments in the US subprime mortgage sector. The crisis expanded throughout the world with generalised growing distrust in the banking system, which led to a strong contraction in liquidity in circulation. The situation become even more evident in the second half of the year and is still ongoing. Starting from September 2008, certain major international financial institutions filed for insolvency, which had a direct adverse effect on financial markets. The fall in share prices was such that the European indices were at comparable levels at the end of February 2009 with those of 1996. The widespread fear about the overall stability of the credit system led to the heavy intervention by the central banks of the main countries in an attempt to restore confidence in the markets. Such actions have not, however, had the desired effects and what originally seemed to be a serious but short-lived financial crisis has rapidly evolved into an economic crisis, with a worldwide slump in demand, industrial production and employment. As part of its activities of monitoring the international economy and its performance, the International Monetary Fund has continued to revise its estimates downwards and they were recently at the lowest levels seen since 1945. Prices of the main energy sources fluctuated widely during 2008. In the first half of the year, oil prices more than doubled compared to the previous year with similar trends seen on the raw materials markets, particularly, copper and iron, which had a direct impact on their semi- finished derivatives. In the last three months of the year, the generalised market volatility was confirmed although there was an about-turn. The prices of oil and the other main raw materials decreased which has speeded up the slowdown in industrial production. This adverse situation was aggravated by the rise in inflation rates which, especially in Italy, have returned to 2001-2002 levels, and the steady appreciation of the Euro against the dollar and dollar-linked currencies. This was not helped by the generalised rise in interest rates with the three month Euribor going from 3.8% at the start of 2007 to 5.20% at 30 September 2008. This trend then changed dramatically for both the dollar, which appreciated against the Euro, and interest rates, which decreased. The impact of this latter decrease was entirely wiped out by the large rise in spreads which contributed to the higher cost of borrowing and the generalised increase in risk factors perceived by the financial system. Despite the repeated intervention of the central banks in the main countries, banks have practically cut any new lending, thus leading to another contraction in available liquidity. A clear sign of the absence of available liquidity, although it exists in the banking system, is the considerable rise in deposits made by banks with the European Central Bank in the last few months. As already described for 2007, the group’s diversification into three core businesses and different geographical segments continues to represent a strong strategic advantage, lessening the above effects and allowing it to maintain a stable financial position and results, despite the complex macroeconomic situation. As a result and thanks to the group’s large and high quality order backlog, it has been able to increase its turnover compared to 2007, resulting in stable operating profit before non-recurring items. Critical factors arising from the macro-economic situation and, specifically, the uncertainty about the internal reference market and considerable reliance on infrastructure investments and raw materials price trends need to be considered. Another critical issue for the group is the entire USW Campania projects situation and their developments, as described in more detail later in this report.

Revenue The group recorded total revenue for 2008 of euro 2,957.6 million (euro 2,626.9 million), up roughly 12.6% on the previous year. All three core businesses (Construction, Engineering & Plant Construction and Concessions) saw increases in their business volumes.

Operating profit (EBIT) The group’s operating profit was euro 189.1 million (euro 131.2 million) for a return on sales (R.o.S.) of 6.4% (5.0%). The operating profit for 2007 included the non-recurring accrual of euro 50.0 million made for the pending proceedings with the Court of Naples for the USW Campania projects. The Construction and Concessions segments made an especially positive contribution to this result: euro 205.9 million (R.o.S. of 11.5%) and euro 29.3 million (R.o.S. of 17.3%), respectively. The reduction in the Concession segment’s EBIT compared to the previous year (2007 R.o.S. of 30.3%) was significantly affected by the full impairment loss recognised on the remaining assets and the provisions made by the Argentine concession company Caminos de Las Sierras S.A. of approximately euro 18 million. This adjustment, described in the section on the Concessions segment, was necessary due to the continued contractual non-compliance by the concession grantor in respect of the contractually-provided for tariff increases, which were never given, and the consequent formal commencement of bankruptcy proceedings by the subsidiary. The Engineering & Plant Construction segment had encountered difficulties related to its desalination projects in the second half of the previous year. This led to an overall reduction in the related contracts’ profitability compared to 2007 and resulted in an operating loss of euro 15.6 million. The group’s other activities made an operating profit of euro 3.7 million, while the corporate structure’s net costs came to euro 34.2 million.

Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments The group recorded net financing costs of euro 60.5 million (euro 9.8 million) while net gains on investments amounted to euro 55.9 million (euro 13.2 million). The net financing costs were affected by a number of factors, the most significant of which are described below. • Net financial expense amounted to euro 70.5 million (euro 40.3 million). The euro 30.2 million increase on 2007 is mainly due to certain 25 South American markets where interest rates and debt levels grew sharply. The rise in Primav Ecorodovias’ debt following its acquisition of the concession company Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovias das Cataratas) led to greater financial expense of approximately euro 10 million for the Brazilian group. In addition, operations in Venezuela saw a temporary increase in their short-term debt due to delays in receiving payments for regularly approved completed work stages from state bodies. As a result of these delays, which started to be recovered in the last few months of 2008 continuing into 2009, the group companies’ exposure in local currency and concurrent considerable rise in the reference rates (the Venezuelan nominal interest rates doubled from the end of 2007 to the end of 2008) led to additional financial expense compared to the previous year of approximately euro 20.0 million. • Net exchange rate losses amounted to euro 26.9 million (net gains of euro 5.1 million) and are analysed below in terms of the different underlying foreign currencies and conditions. - The Construction segment recorded net exchange rate losses of euro 9.7 million in Venezuela, mainly due to the non-payment of progress billings by the local customers of work in US dollars, as contractually provided for and in their favour, but in the local contractual currency (Bolivar). This option to pay in US dollars had been continuously availed of by customers in the past for almost all contractual components expressed in the local currency and had been considered when measuring receivables at the end of 2007. - Net exchange rate losses for the Engineering & Plant Construction segment’s activities in the Persian Gulf area amounted to euro 13.7 million and mainly arose from local currencies, principally tied to the US dollar, as well as the US dollar itself. Despite their not meeting the hedging requirement established by IFRS, the derivatives entered into by the group hedging currency risk on contract revenue are substantially effective. The exchange rate losses classified as financing costs arising from the adjustments of the expected contract performance to current rates have been substantially offset by the performance of the relevant derivatives. - Net exchange rate losses of euro 3.5 million were recorded for the weak and/or limited circulation currencies, such as those for Brazil, Iceland, Tunisia and Nigeria. Hedges cannot be agreed for such exchange rate risks at reasonable conditions. • The euro 4.4 million decrease in gains on the sale of securities. In 2007, these gains were achieved on the management of payments made by customers in currencies other than those contractually provided for, whereas in 2008, these gains were realised by directly

financing certain foreign operating branches by the parent using its own funds. It took advantage of the currency mismatches of money markets in relation to certain South American currencies, whose official exchange rates with some strong currencies, including the US dollar, are fixed artificially. • The collection of default interest receivables by both the Engineering & Plant Construction and Construction segments, which had been fully impaired in previous years, allowed the group to achieve results approximately euro 7.6 million better than those of the previous year: euro 8.2 million for 2008 compared to euro 0.6 million for 2007. • A reduction in bank charges and commissions on financial guarantees of euro 1.7 million as well as a decrease in other financial expense (losses on the disposal of financial assets, other income and expense) of euro 6.6 million compared to 2007. With respect to gains (losses) on investments, the group recorded net gains of euro 55.9 million (euro 13.2 million) composed mainly of: • a net gain of euro 67.5 million on the sale of its investment in the Brazilian associate Ponte de Pedra S.A.; • cancellation of the remaining carrying amount of euro 9.9 million of the 50.71% investment in Impresit Bakolori P.l.c. (Nigeria) in the last few months of 2008. This company was excluded from the consolidation scope due to the significant worsening in the general stability of the area in which it operates. As a result, the group was unable to control the subsidiary’s operations and management, as it had done 26 regularly in previous years, nor to obtain reliable figures at 31 December 2008.

Profits (losses) from discontinued operations This caption shows net profits of euro 35.6 million (net losses of euro 30.8 million), which were partly offset by the losses of euro 5.0 million for the USW Campania projects. The net profits include euro 40.6 million for the financial components covered by the agreement signed in 2006 in connection with the sale by Impregilo International Infrastructures of the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. which were to be defined after the sale. These components related to: a) measurement of the deferred price for attainment of results better than those included in the 2006-2009 business plan used for the sale by the Chilean concession company. This component amounts to euro 8.2 million, net of the related tax effect. At the sale date, only the certain, identifiable consideration had been determined as a minimum guaranteed euro 2.5 million.The positive euro 5.7 million difference was, therefore, recognised entirely in 2008 on the basis of the concession company’s actual 2006 and 2007 results and forecast 2008 and 2009 results, the latter identified in advance based on an appraisal carried out by an independent third party in July 2008; b) sale of the right to subscribe 10% of the buyer’s share capital at its nominal amount, which was estimated at euro 34.9 million by an independent expert in July 2008. These amounts were collected in the fourth quarter of 2008 as already provided for in the contract during negotiations for the sale of the investment in the Chilean concession company and recognised in accordance with IRFS 5 at the time of sale. They also comply with the ruling legal requirements governing related party transactions. In this case, the relationship is between the directors.

Minority interests Minority interests in the subsidiaries contributed positively to the profit for the year attributable to the shareholders of the parent for euro 0.2 million. The 2007 contribution was a positive euro 0.6 million. THE GROUP’S FINANCIAL POSITION

Net invested capital This caption increased by euro 52.3 million on the previous year end to euro 782.3 million. Goodwill, related to the subsidiaries of the Engineering & Plant Construction segment (euro 26 million), Primav Ecorodovias (euro 14 million) and Shanghai Pucheng (euro 18 million), was tested for impairment as required by the IFRS. The tests did not show any impairment compared to the carrying amount and are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements to which reference should be made. The increase in net invested capital is mainly due to the factors listed below. • A net decrease in the carrying amount of non-current assets of euro 18.8 million, mainly due to the following: a) increases in capital expenditure for ongoing contracts that, net of impairment losses and disposals for contracts being finalised, amount to euro 28.5 million;

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part I

b) amortisation and depreciation for the year of euro 61.5 million; c) acquisition of the Brazilian concession company Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovia das Cataratas) by Primav Ecorodovias, which increased non-current assets by euro 77.8 million; d) the full impairment loss on the non-current assets of the Argentine concession company Caminos de Las Sierras of euro 14.2 million; and e) exchange rate losses, the balancing entry to which is recognised in a specific equity reserve as required by the IFRS, which decreased the carrying amount of non-current assets by euro 44.2 million at year end. • Decrease in non-current assets (liabilities) held for sale due to the sale of the group’s investment in the associate Ponte de Pedra, with a carrying amount of euro 52.4 million at the end of 2007, and changes in the assets of the USW Campania projects. Investments of euro 21.5 million were made to complete the Acerra waste-to-energy plant during the year and the group received advances of euro 27.6 million from the commissioner, which decreased its carrying amount. • The euro 149.9 million increase in working capital, due to a number of ordinary factors directly tied to the group’s operations, the key ones of which are: 28 a) increase in production for certain foreign contracts of the Construction and Engineering & Plant Construction segments, for which the related progress billings will be issued after year end and which led to a temporary increase in net working capital (including use of the related advances, when provided for) of euro 298.9 million; b) decrease in trade receivables following collection of receivables for certain contracts being finalised, together with the increase in production volumes for new contracts and the concurrent rise in trade payables in line with operating developments, which will be settled after year end. The combined effect of these captions decreased working capital by euro 132.4 million compared to the previous year end; c) decrease in other current assets net of current liabilities of euro 16.5 million, mainly as a result of: - `early payment of insurance premiums and surety commissions for the Lake Mead (US) contract, which cover the entire project term; - the decrease in payments of advances to suppliers for contracts, which are nearing completion or are being finalised related to the high speed/capacity projects and the Engineering & Plant Construction segment.

Net financial position The net financial position at 31 December 2008 amounts to euro 42.6 million compared to net financial indebtedness of euro 53.7 million at the end of 2007, a net improvement of euro 96.3 million. In addition to the results of current operations, the main factors which contributed positively to the group’s net financial position were the collection of the consideration for the sale of its investment in Ponte de Petra S.A. (approximately euro 109 million), collection of the outstanding financial components related to the sale of its investment in the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte (approximately euro 40 million) and the full repayment of the project financing for Lot 5 of the “Salerno- Reggio Calabria” contract following the early payment by the customer of the parts of the progress billings for which the group had taken out the financing and for which the group received euro 49.4 million. The key transactions using financial resources were the investments in non-current assets (euro 97.7 million) and acquisition of the Brazilian concession company Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovias das Cataratas) by Primav Ecorodovias (euro 55.1 million, net of the liquidity already held by the acquiree). As described in more detail later in this report, on 27 March 2008, the Supreme Court ruled that the precautionary seizure measure for certain financial assets as part of the legal proceedings related to the USW Campania projects be cancelled and referred the proceeding to the Naples Review Court. Following the hearing of 22 July 2008, this Court ordered the cancellation of the measure and released the above amounts from seizure on 7 August 2008. Impregilo gave guarantees in favour of unconsolidated group companies of euro 17.8 million securing loans granted by banks. This amount decreased by euro 2.0 million over the 2007 year-end figure, mainly due to repayments made by such unconsolidated group companies. The group’s net financial position at 31 December 2008 is summarised in the following table.

Revenue 2008 revenue amounts to euro 1,667.0 million (euro 1,471.3 million), up 13.3% on the previous year. The increase is due to completion of, and progress on, several foreign and Italian contracts, specifically those in Iceland, the high speed/capacity railway contracts, the Mestre motorway connector and new offices of the Lombardy Regional Authorities in Italy, as well as the commencement of new projects, such as the Pedelombarda contract. Other revenue mainly consisted of cost recoveries and prior year income.

Operating profit (EBIT) The operating profit (EBIT) was euro 138.9 million (euro 27.5 million) with a return on sales of 8.3% (1.9%). The operating profit for 2007 included the non-recurring accrual of euro 50.0 million made for the USW Campania projects. 2008 EBIT includes the corporate structure’s costs of euro 34.2 million. Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments The parent recorded net financing income of euro 10.1 million (euro 36.3 million). The euro 26.2 million decrease is due to a number of factors, the main ones of which are described below. • Total net financial expense increased by euro 17.6 million, mainly due to the payables in Venezuela where interest rates rose significantly. This effect was worsened by a temporary increase in the parent’s short-term exposure as a result of delays in payments of progress billings by state-owned customers, for works duly approved. These delays started to be recovered in the last few months of 2008 and this trend has continued in early 2009. • Gains on the sale of securities increased by euro 8.1 million. In 2007, these gains were realised on payments made by customers in currencies other than those contractually provided for in 2007, whereas in 2008, they were realised through the direct financing of operations using the parent’s own funds. It took advantage of the currency mismatches of money markets in relation to certain South American currencies, whose official exchange rates with some strong currencies, including the US dollar, are fixed artificially. • Net exchange rate losses amounted to euro 11.0 million compared to net gains of euro 7.3 million for 2007, a negative net difference of euro 18.3 million due to the following situations. - Net losses of euro 10.1 million in conjunction with the parent’s operations in Venezuela. This was basically due to the local customers’ 31 failure to exercise their reight to pay progress billings in US collars, as contractually provided for and in their favour, rather than the local contractual currency (Bolivar). This option to pay in US dollars had been continuously availed of by customers in the past for almost all contractual components expressed in the local currency and the parent had measured its receivables in that currency at the end of the previous year. - Net losses of euro 0.9 million on weak and/or limited circulation currencies, such as those for Iceland and Brazil for which hedges cannot be agreed at reasonable conditions. With respect to gains (losses) on investments, the parent recorded a net loss of euro 2.9 million (euro 28.7 million), affected by the euro 8.1 million loss arising from the impairment losses on its investments in FIBE and FIBE Campania at the end of the year to reflect their losses incurred for the USW Campania projects. This loss was partly covered (euro 6.7 million) by the release of the provision for risks on investments set up before 2006 for the Nigerian subsidiary Impresit Bakolori P.l.c. Following the worsening in the general stability in that area, the conditions for the exercise of strategic and management control by the parent ceased to exist. The provision had been set up to provide for the contingent liabilities of restructuring the subsidiary’s operating activities, which never took place due to the changed situation. The parent had already fully impaired its receivables from Impresit Bakolori in previous years. Therefore, it did not have any specific risk positions with it at year end.

Net invested capital This caption increased by euro 159.1 million. The increase is due to the following: • a decrease of euro 12.1 million in property, plant and equipment following the sale of plant and machinery used in contracts that are being finalised or have been completed of euro 8.0 million and depreciation of euro 16.3 million, partly offset by purchases of machinery for new contracts commenced during the year of euro 18.0 million; • an increase of euro 44.9 million in equity investments, mainly due to the payment of share capital for start-ups; • the net decrease in provisions for risks of euro 47.6 million, mainly as a result of the following transactions: a) utilisation of euro 31.7 million during the year to cover the losses of FIBE and FIBE Campania; this amount had been accrued in 2007; b) utilisation of euro 16.4 million, including euro 5.4 million to directly cover the liabilities for which the provisions had been set up, and euro 11.0 million for the difference between estimates made in previous years and settlement of the litigation which had led to the recognition of the provisions; • a decrease in “Other non-current assets (liabilities)”, mainly due to the reduction in receivables from special purpose entities for foreign contracts and from FIBE S.p.A.; the reduction in the latter’s receivable was due to the parent’s waiver thereof to cover the subsidiary’s losses; • an increase of euro 176.1 million in working capital, mainly due to receivables due from customers and special purpose entities in line with operating developments.

Net financial position The parent’s net financial indebtedness at 31 December 2008 amounts to euro 475.0 million, up euro 76.9 million. This increase is mainly due to the financing of certain contracts which are in a start-up stage and the financial assistance that the parent has had to guarantee to its subsidiaries involved in the USW Campania projects, which saw the continued default by their local administration customers in 2008. As described in more detail later in the section on the USW Campania projects, during 2007, certain of the parent’s financial assets (including cash with Italian banks) were seized following the precautionary measure as part of the proceedings before the Court of Naples and as ruled by the relevant judicial authorities. On 27 March 2008, the Supreme Court ruled that the precautionary seizure measure be cancelled and referred the proceeding to the Naples Review Court. Following the hearing of 22 July 2008, this Court ordered the cancellation of the measure 33 and released the above amounts from seizure on 7 August 2008.

Risk areas

38 Tax litigation During 2008, the parent commenced a dispute with the Milan tax office about an assessment challenging the tax treatment of impairment losses and losses in 2003 of certain investments held by the parent in that year. The most significant issue relates to the parent’s sale of its entire investment in the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. to Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. in 2003. The parent has challenged the unlawfulness of the criteria adopted by the tax office to determine the “normal value” of the sale. The office redetermined the alleged transfer value using the consideration paid by third parties which acquired the concession company in 2006 as a base, limiting itself to discounting this consideration over the period from the sale date in 2006 to the date of the previous transfer from Impregilo to Impregilo International Infrastructures. This is to demonstrate the greater tax that it claims should have been paid. Before the dispute was commenced, Impregilo had fully demonstrated with the related documentation the correctness of the method adopted in 2003, which had, moreover, been approved by an independent appraisal at the time of the sale. However, the tax office had not considered this documentation. At the date of the original sale, the Chilean concession company was still “constructing” its infrastructure and had only just commenced (without having completed) the activities aimed at obtaining financing to complete these works. During the preliminary stage of the dispute, Impregilo obtained a new, independent appraisal of the disputed transfer price to support its calculation. This was prepared by a leading international advisory firm. It also informed the tax office that another investment in the Chilean concession company then held by SIMEST S.p.A., a state-owned company, had also been transferred to Impregilo International Infrastructures in April 2004 for a substantially equal consideration (given the different investment percentages) to that being disputed. Despite these arguments, the local commission (first level) rejected Impregilo’s case without specifying why, fully accepting the tax office’s claims and ordering the company to pay the assessed tax, interest and fines of approximately euro 52 million. This measure was appealed against before the second level court. The lawyers assisting the parent agree with it that there are valid reasons to hold that the greater tax imposed by the tax office is unlawful, deeming that the unfavourable first level ruling was deficient in terms of the reasoning, based moreover on illegitimate arguments and without objective grounds. Therefore, Impregilo has not made any provision therefor either in its separate or consolidated financial statements. CONSTRUCTION

Impregilo S.p.A. heads the Construction business segment, which encompasses all projects relating to the construction of large-scale infra- structure, such as dams, hydroelectric plants, motorways, railways, underground railways, underground works, bridges and similar works. The business segment recorded revenue of euro 1,788.2 million (euro 1,601.3 million) with an operating profit of euro 205.9 million (euro 161.6 million) and an R.o.S. of 11.5% for the year. Despite the difficult economic situation and continued stagnant domestic large-scale in- frastructure market, progress was made on certain large-scale contracts in Italy during the year. Together with developments in foreign ac- tivities, this led to a rise in revenue for the year compared to 2007. During the year, the Construction segment continued to manage many projects relating to the construction of large-scale infrastructure. In particular, the most significant events that affected the year in relation to certain significant contracts, broken down by geographical seg- ment, are the following.

39 Italy High-speed/capacity Turin-Novara-Milan Railway Project This project includes two main railway lines, one running between Turin and Novara and the other between Novara and Milan, and is being carried out by a consortium in which Impregilo holds a 74.69% share, the C.A.V.TO.MI. consortium. In December 2006, the Main Test Cer- tificate was issued for all the line and related work and almost all off-line work for the Turin-Novara line, approved by R.F.I. on 21 December 2007. During the last few months of 2008, negotiations were stepped up with the customer to finalise the additional agreement before the final tests are carried out. The related Final Test Certificate is expected to be issued in 2009. Work continued on the Novara-Milan line during the year to complete the civil and technological line works and the off-line civil works. At 31 December 2008, work on the Novara-Milan line was 83.6% complete.

High-speed/capacity Bologna- Railway Project The project is being carried out by the C.A.V.E.T. consortium, 75.98% owned by Impregilo. The tunnel digging work was completed in 2007 and work continued on the railway superstructure, technological systems and work for sa- fety requirements during 2008 as well as the environmental clean-up of the sites where work was carried out. The project was 93.5% complete at 31 December 2008.

Mestre Motorway Connector Project This project covers the design, project management and construction of the motorway connector in Mestre. Impregilo has a 42% investment in the work. On 6 August 2007, the first section of the connector road was opened consisting of 5 km of motorway and 3 km of junctions and feeder roads.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

In December 2008, Additional Act no. 2 to the contract was signed, formalising the variation for the development of an executive plan, the carrying out of environment work (the “Passante Verde”) and the carrying out of certain changes to the motorway route. The construction work was stepped up during the year with the project 80.6% complete at 31 December 2008.

Salerno - Reggio Calabria Motorway Project: Lots 5 and 6 This project relates to the improvement and upgrading of the last section of the Salerno-Reggio Calabria motorway, between Gioia Tauro and Scilla (Lot 5) and between Scilla and Reggio Calabria (Lot 6). Impregilo’s share of the contract is 51%. Work on Lot 5 slowed down significantly, mostly in the second half of the year. The special purpose entity mainly dealt with the customer’s non-recognition of the significant delay with which it had delivered the work due to its slowness in approving the executive plan. Therefore, the special purpose entity activated the procedure under article 31-bis of Law no. 109/1994 for recognition of the related claims. An agree- ment was signed in November 2008 providing for, inter alia, the extension of the contract term by three years. ANAS (the Italian National Roads Authority) suspended the work for the “Barritteri” tunnel in December 2008 and it was only restarted in Fe- bruary 2009. Following the partly negative outcome of the procedure under article 31-bis of Law no. 109/1994 in January 2009, the spe- 40 cial purpose entity presented the customer with an arbitration request. Work was 49.7% complete on this lot at 31 December 2008. Part of the areas was delivered by project management for Lot 6 in early 2008 and work started. It subsequently slowed down and was halted, partly due to the investigation commenced by ANAS and the local administrative bodies to identify a solution to the interruptions caused by the work. Work was 14.3% complete on this lot at 31 December 2008.

New offices of the Lombardy Regional Authorities The contract, awarded in 2006, is for the works to be performed for the new offices of the Lombardy Regional Authorities in Milan on behalf of Infrastrutture Lombarde S.p.A.. The new offices will be located between Via Melchiorre Gioia and Via Restelli on an area of 33,700 square metres as part of the project to redevelop the Garibaldi-Repubblica area. The contract involves the construction of a complex consisting of four modern buildings with a sinusoidal shape and a 160-metre high central tower, incorporating a square covered by a transparent roof. Construction work commenced in the last few months of 2006 and the project was 38.2% complete at 31 December 2008.

Bridge crossing the Strait and roadway and railway connectors 41 on the side of Calabria and In March 2006, as representative of the joint venture created for this project, Impregilo signed a contract with Stretto di Messina S.p.A. for its engagement as general contractor for the definitive project, executive plans and construction of the Bridge and related roadway and railway connectors. This contract is worth a total of euro 3,900 million. A bank syndicate also signed the financial documentation required in the General Specifications after the joint venture won the tender, for the concession of credit lines of euro 250 million earmarked for this project. The customer was also given performance bonds of euro 239 million, as provided for in the contract. The joint venture headed by Impregilo S.p.A. (with a 45% share) also includes -based Sacyr S.A. (18.70%), Società Italiana per Condotte d’Acqua S.p.A. (15%), Cooperativa Muratori & Cementisti-C.M.C. of Ravenna (13%), ’s Ishikawajima – Harima Heavy Industries CO Ltd (6.30%) and Consorzio Stabile A.C.I. S.c.p.A. (2%). In 2006, as provided for by contract, a special purpose entity named “Eurolink S.c.p.A.” was set up for this project. As project leader, Impregilo holds 45% thereof. The customer has not yet issued the Initial Works Order.

High-speed/capacity Milan-Genoa Railway Project The project for the construction of this railway line was assigned to Consorzio CO.C.I.V. as general contractor with the TAV (as concession grantor on behalf of Ferrovie dello Stato)/COCIV agreement of 16 March 1992. Impregilo is the project leader. Following enactment of Law decree no. 7/2007, subsequently converted into Law no. 40 of 2 April 2007, the F.S./TAV concession was cancelled affecting the agreement between TAV and the general contractor. Before enactment of the aforesaid Law decree, the consortium had commenced an arbitration proceeding as per the original contract for the contractual non-compliance of the customer. In April, it appealed to the Lazio Regional Administrative Court against the measures adopted in compliance with the above law.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

On 12 July 2007, the Lazio Regional Administrative Court allowed the appeal made by CO.C.I.V. against the measures of the Ministry for Transportation and R.F.I.S.p.A., which had ordered the cancellation of the agreement for the high-speed/capacity Milan - Genoa railway line, pursuant to Law no. 40/2007. The Court authorised suspension of the law, deferring the related decision to the European Court of Justice. With its order of 9 October 2007, the Council of State both confirmed the deferral of the ruling to the European Court of Justice and allowed the appeal made by R.F.I. and TAV against the suspension ordered by the Lazio Regional Administrative Court. However, in June, Law decree no. 112/2008 (converted into Law no. 133 of 6 August 2008) reinstated the F.S/R.F.I.concessions, previously revoked by the implementing Law no. 40/2007, including that for the CO.C.I.V. project. Following this measure, the arbitral tribunal deferred the hearing originally set for 22 July 2008 to 10 September 2008 and then to 15 October 2008 for the filing of the fourth brief. On the latter date, the arbitral tribunal set the date for another hearing (29 October 2008). In this meeting, the TAV legal counsel requested extension of the deadline for the handing down of the award to 31 December 2010 should a court-appointed expert be appointed. Given the complexity of the matter, it is not currently possible to foresee its outcome with any reasonable certainty.

Abroad 42 Venezuela - Caracas - Tuy Medio Railway Project The project consists of the civil works and electromechanical works for the approximately 42-km long railway line between Caracas and the Tuy industrial area. The civil works have been entrusted to the Contuy A consortium, in which Impregilo holds 36.4%, while the supply of rails and railway materials and the installation of electrification and control systems have been entrusted to the Contuy C consortium (Impregilo share: 100%). The first stage of the work was completed on 15 October 2006 with the inauguration of the project and works have been mostly completed at the end of 2008. Certain minor works, which do not affect the running of the line, have still to be finished. The consortia have commenced the procedures to obtain the provisional acceptance of the works by the customer. This project was 99.0% complete at 31 December 2008.

Venezuela - Puerto Cabello - La Encrucijada Railway Project This project consists of the construction of civil works of the railway line along approximately 110 km, connecting Puerto Cabello and La Encrucijada. The activities presently underway relate to the preparation of the executive plan, digging and tunnel lining work, construction of the understructure and laying of the viaduct foundations. At 31 December 2008, work was 44.7% complete. Work is slated to be completed by April 2013, as per the recently updated programme. An additional contract was signed in June 2006 for works on the railway superstructures of seven stations, two logistics centres and two car parks as well as the maintenance of railway materials for euro 664 million. The executive plan is currently being drawn up.

Venezuela - San Juan de los Morros – San Fernando de Apure Railway and Chaguaramas – Cabruta Railway Project On 5 June 2006, an Italian joint venture, comprising Impregilo S.p.A., Astaldi S.p.A. and Ghella S.p.A., each with equal shares of 33.33%, signed two contracts with the Independent Railroad Institute of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (IAFE). The contracts relate to the construction of two new railway lines, “San Juan de los Morros- San Fernando de Apure” (252 km) and “Chaguaramas - Las Mercedes- Cabruta” (201 km). The projects are scheduled for completion within 76 months of work start-up and include the laying of 453 km of new lines. They also include the design and installation of a railway superstructure, with the construction of 11 stations and nine logistics centres. The official initial works order was signed on 15 January 2007 for the “San Juan de los Morros - San Fernando de Apure” line. The building site has been set up. Digging and work on the embankment is ongoing. The contractually-agreed advance was received during the first half of 2007 and the project was 8.3% complete at 31 December 2008. The official initial works order for the Chagauramas - Cabruta line was signed on 17 November 2006. Preparation of the executive plans has been completed and work is underway. This project was 14.8% complete at 31 December 2008.

Greece - Acheloos River Deviation Tunnel Project This project relates to the construction of a 17.4-km long hydraulic tunnel with an underground diameter of 7.1 metres and the construction 43 of related works, such as roads and access tunnels. During the third quarter of 2008, the partner Empedos transferred its share of the works to Impregilo group with the consent of the customer. This means that Impregilo group now has full responsibility for the construction contract. The tunnel excavation process was severely slowed due to geological difficulties that necessitated laborious and expensive clean-up and strengthening work. These delays are entirely due to a geological situation completely different to that shown in the contractual documentation which was made available by the customer. This situation had a negative impact on production levels. Negotiations commenced with the customer to remedy this situation led to the suspension of the work in the first quarter of 2007. The outcome was approval of the changes to the designs and technical characteristics of the contract which allowed recommencement of digging. At 31 December 2008, 92.8% of the work was complete.

Greece - Thessalonica Underground Railway Project This project relates to the construction of the automated underground railway in Thessalonica. The contract was signed in 2006 and Impregilo is involved in the civil works together with the Greek construction company Aegek S.A. and Seli S.p.A.. The project entails the construction of an automated light underground railway with the excavation of two 9.5-km tunnels and 13 new underground stations. To date, work is behind schedule due to a dispute with the customer about the design and delay in delivery of areas by it. At 31 December 2008, 13.0% of the work was complete.

Acquisition of new contracts United States - Lake Mead tunnel On 25 March 2008, Impregilo won the international tender called by the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) for the construction of an articulated water extraction and transportation system from Lake Mead to the Las Vegas (Nevada) area to increase water supplies for drinking and domestic use. Lake Mead is one of the biggest reservoirs in the US and lies roughly 30 km south east of Las Vegas. The contract is worth US$ 447 million. The project is technically very complex and involves construction of a water intake on the lake bed, at a depth of circa 100 metres and of a roughly 5-km long tunnel and the excavation of an access shaft of roughly 200 metres. Work commenced during the year to assemble the building site and is slated for completion in the second half of 2012. At 31 December 2008, 7.3% of the work was complete.

45 Italy - Pedemontana Lombarda motorway Lot 1 On 29 April 2008, as leader and representative with a stake of 47% in the joint venture, Impregilo won the tender for the design and construction of the first lot of the Pedemontana Lombarda motorway. The joint venture includes Astaldi (24%), Pizzarotti (18%) and Itinera (11%). The contract, entrusted to the general contractor, is worth approximately euro 630 million and includes the definitive project, executive plan and construction of the first section of the Como and Varese ring roads and the connector road between the A8 and the A9 motorways (from Cassano Magnago to Lomazzo). It involves roughly 47 km of motorway and secondary roads, approximately 13 km of tunnels and the construction of bridges and viaducts for a total length of approximately 1.7 km. Construction is planned to start in 2010 to be completed after about three years.

Libya - University centres In early July, following authorisation from the Libyan government, the contracts between Impregilo Lidco (company consisting of Impregilo - 60% and Libyan Development Investment Co) and ODAC (Organisation for Development of the Administrative Centres) for the design and construction of three university centres in Misuratah, Tarhunah and Sliten in Libya were formalised. Initial authorisation for the start of works was given for an amount of approximately euro 400 million. Work is scheduled to start in the next few months to be completed in 2011.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Risk areas Hydroelectric plant in Kali Gandaki - Nepal The issue dates back to July 2004, when Impregilo began arbitration proceedings before the International Court of Arbitration (I.C.C.) against its customer Nepal Electricity Authority (N.E.A.) and the kingdom of Nepal. The arbitration proceedings are aimed at obtaining payment of a claim that currently amounts to US$ 21 million, plus interest and monetary revaluations, in reference to the construction of the Kali Gandaki hydroelectric plant. The amount claimed by Impregilo mainly relates to work performed and approved, but not yet paid for, in addition to extension of the contractual period, additional claims, interest and damages. Also in relation to the above project, a dispute is pending with the Nepalese Tax Authorities. This dispute is due to the fact that, when the project began, local tax legislation provided for taxation of project activities upon completion of the work. However, this legislation changed while the work was being carried out and, in June 2005, the Nepalese Tax Authorities requested Impregilo pay a total of euro 7.3 million for local taxes. Moreover, the amount requested does not consider the counterclaims deposited by Impregilo since July 2005. Given the difficulty of relationships and in calculating how long it will take to collect the receivables, Impregilo made specific accruals to the provisions for risks and bad debts in previous years. 46 In 2007, the International Court of Arbitration issued its award on the arbitration with the customer NEA, fully accepting the claims made by Impregilo and ordering, inter alia, suspension of any tax claims by the Kingdom of Nepal until all the amounts due to the group had been paid in full. The related proceedings for the discharging of the contractual guarantees are still ongoing, after the first stage when Impregilo’s claims were again accepted. To date, there are no elements that would lead the group to believe that the proceedings could constitute a significant risk for it.

Hydroelectric plant in Nathpa Jhakri – India This project was carried out by a joint venture headed by Impregilo. It was completed in previous years. The plant was delivered to the customer and is currently operating. However, disputes are still pending in relation to the recovery of receivables and to claims made by the customer for compensation and counterclaims.

Arbitration with the customer Arbitration hearings are currently ongoing for a total value of euro 30 million (at current exchange rates). These include the requests for extending the contractual term (over euro 22.5 million) and for recognition of price adjustments (over euro 3.3 million). The relevant arbitration bodies (Dispute Review Board, Additional Dispute Review Board and Claim Review Panel) have already ruled favourably on most of the disputes. The customer has appealed against the rulings of the above bodies, presenting claims for damage from the joint venture for a total amount of approximately euro 27 million. In consideration of the above, the directors had impaired the residual receivables recognised in the financial statements by the same amount, and recognised an accrual to cover any further risks in previous years. Contractual guarantees and additional customer claims In addition to the above claims, in July 2003, the customer began enforcement proceedings on contractual guarantees for euro 21.2 million. However, the enforcement proceedings were suspended following the first level judgement of the local court, which ordered the customer to suspend enforcement until the final outcome of the arbitration proceedings. The customer agreed for the guarantees to be extended until March 2009. These guarantees are first-demand enforceable, but, based on the opinion of its legal advisors, the company believes that the risk of their enforcement is remote. Supporting this assessment, the local supreme court issued a judgement in relation to a similar attempt by the same customer to enforce guarantees against another contractor, definitively denying the claims for compensation made by the customer. In line with the considerations made at the end of the previous year and the fact that the situation has not changed significantly, the related risk of enforcement of the guarantees and additional claims by the customer is considered to be remote.

Proceedings with the Court of Florence - C.A.V.E.T. As part of a number of disputes that the Tuscan judiciary authorities had raised against C.A.V.E.T. and certain directors and managers of the consortium in connection with the Bologna - Florence high speed/capacity railway works, penal proceedings nos. 10221/99 and 47 4923/00 RGNR were commenced in previous years followed by other proceedings. The main charges raised against the consortium included, inter alia: • water theft from the water bed during excavation of the tunnels and subsequent use of such water during construction; • impoverishing and damaging of surface and underground water sources; • illegal traffic of toxic waste during the elimination of soil, rocks and mud which the consortium had treated as if such materials were not “waste”. The first level proceedings were being finalised at year end. The consortium has always sustained that it operated in compliance with the law and, specifically: • with respect to the alleged water theft, in addition to the fact that the issue is no longer punishable by law, the consortium holds that it acted in compliance with the contractual conditions and design specifications agreed with the customer; • with respect to the alleged damaging and impoverishing of the water bed, the consortium holds that, as above, it acted in full compliance with the customer’s instructions and diligently and that, therefore, the penal charges made by the prosecutor are ungrounded. The current situation of the water drainage in this area (Tuscany) following finalisation of the tunnels is in line with the designs and as agreed during the Services Conference. As a result, also when the actual damage is proven and quantified during the later stages of the proceeding, it deems that such damage is not attributable to the consortium but to the design specifications and complex characteristics of the works carried out on behalf of the customer. Therefore, the customer should be directly accountable for any consequences; • with respect to the alleged illegal traffic of waste, classification of materials such as rocks and earth (which the authority considers to be “waste”) complies with the contamination limits set by Law no. 443 of 21 December 2001 for the purposes of their exclusion from the definition as “waste”. The consortium is able to prove this, also on the basis of specific technical appraisals.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Following the final hearing for the first level proceeding on 3 March 2009, the Court of Florence cleared the defendants from all claims about the damaging and impoverishing of the water bed, deferred the acts to the Constitutional Court for the “water theft” and found the defendants guilty of the waste management issue. The Court deferred quantification of the compensation to be paid to the civil parties to a separate civil judge and ordered the payment of a “provisional” sum to the Ministry for the Environment, the Tuscan Regional Authorities and the Florence Municipal Authorities of euro 50 million each, plus other amounts to the other civil parties for a total approximate euro 0.2 million. As part of this ruling, additional interdictive sanctions were approved for the individuals involved. These will only be effective if, after finalisation of the other stages of the proceedings, the final ruling is not changed. Application of the Court’s rulings about the “provisional” sums is subject to the lodging of the grounds for the ruling, to take place before 90 days from the date of publication of the ruling, as provided for by the Court. This time limit is the same as that for presentation of an appeal by the consortium, which it will do, including appeals for the suspension of the “provisional” sums. These sums do not represent a calculation of the damage either in terms of an estimate or accurate calculation thereof, but are to protect the civil parties which cannot however consider them as definitively obtained unless a final penal ruling is issued after which an independent civil hearing would have to take place to quantify the damage. At the date of preparation of this report, it is not possible to determine either

48 the amount of the alleged damage to third parties or when any damages will be paid as the ruling would only be valid after hearings at all three levels have been held. The consortium’s lawyers agree with it that its correct conduct can be clearly demonstrated in the appeal hearing. They are confident that the sentence will be substantially changed, including with respect to the negative charges made by the first level hearing. ENGINEERING & PLANT CONSTRUCTION

The Engineering & Plant Construction segment, headed by FISIA Italimpianti and FISIA Babcock Environment (Germany), includes the operations of plants for the desalination of sea water, fume treatment and waste-to-energy processes, as well as environmental services (contamination clean-up), urban solid waste (USW) disposal, sea clean-up activities and coastal protection. The business segment’s revenue amounted to euro 988.1 million for the year (euro 846.4 million) and the operating loss totalled euro 15.6 million (profit of euro 24.6 million). As noted in the first part of this report, the effects of the difficult international economic situation, especially the Euro’s appreciation against the US dollar and dollar-linked currencies together with the significant hike in prices of ferrous and other non- ferrous metals and related derivatives had a negative effect on this segment’s profitability in the year, despite the increase in business volumes compared to 2007 (+17%). The status of the main contracts of FISIA Italimpianti is as follows: • Jebel Ali L2 desalination plant (Dubai - U.A.E.): this contract was awarded in May 2005 and provides for the construction of four desalination units for a total of 55 million gallon/day to be delivered in 2008. The electromechanical assembling work and work to start up the plant were completed during the year. The contract was 95.4% complete at 31 December 2008. 49 • Jebel Ali L1 desalination plant (Dubai): production, calculated using the cost to cost method, equalled euro 5.0 million; the contract was 98.9% complete at 31 December 2008. • Al Taweelah B desalination plant (Abu Dhabi – U.A.E): this is a desalination plant of four units that process a total of 70 million gallon/day. Work started in September 2005 and the assembly work was almost completed during the year. Distilled water production started in February and March. The first part of the plant (group 1) was delivered to the customer on 27 May 2008. At 31 December 2008, the contract was 97.6% complete. • Ras Abu Fontas B2 desalination plant (Doha-Qatar): work commenced on this combined 30 million gallon/day desalination plant/600 MW electricity generation plant in October 2005 to be completed in 21 months as part of a consortium with General Electric (supplier of the electricity generation plant). Negotiations are in place with the customer and the partner for their responsibility for the delays which had led to the extension of the contract term compared to the originally agreed dates. FISIA has already provided for this situation in 2008. At 31 December 2008, the contract was 86.5% complete. • Jebel Ali M desalination plant (Dubai – U.A.E.): this contract was awarded in March 2007 and subsequently integrated with two variations in May 2007 for a total of 140 million gallon/day to be delivered before June 2010. Procurement of the supplies and agreement of the main tender contracts continued during the year. Concurrently, the civil works were continued and the company started to construct the distillers. At 31 December 2008, the contract was 59.5% complete. • Ras Abu Fontas A1 desalination plant (Qatar): the contract was signed in May 2007 for construction of a 45 million gallon/day plant in 23 months. Procurement of the supplies and agreement of the main tender contracts continued during the year. At 31 December 2008, the contract was 57.1% complete. • Shuaiba desalination plant (Kuwait): the contract was signed in July 2007 for construction of a 45 million gallon/day plant in 34 months. Procurement of the supplies and agreement of the main tender contracts continued during the year.At 31 December 2008, the contract was 46.9% complete. The subsidiary FISIA Babcock, active in the fume treatment and waste-to-energy sectors, continued to increase its output during 2008 (+1% compared to 2007). Most of its production (67%) relates to the construction of waste treatment plants with the remainder (29%) relating to fume treatment plants.

The directors are reasonably certain that the inventories and receivables relating to the construction of the waste-to-energy plant in Acerra and to outstanding progress billing, along with the receivables arising from management of the RDF plants, are recoverable based on the amounts and negotiations underway with the government commissioner for the waste emergency in Campania. Reference should be made to the section on “Assets classified as held for sale and discontinued operations” for further details.

CONCESSIONS

Group activities in this business segment relate to the management of investments in its subsidiaries and minority investments in many other companies, almost entirely abroad, which hold concessions mainly for the management of motorway networks, plants that generate energy from renewable sources, electricity transmission, integrated cycle water systems and the management of non-medical hospital service activities. The following tables summarise the key figures of the concessions backlog at year end, split by business segment.

As illustrated in the table summarising performance by business segment, the operating profit of the Concessions segment amounted to euro 29.3 million (euro 46.6 million), equal to 17.3% of revenue which came in at euro 169.1 million for the year (euro 153.9 million). 53 With respect to the investment in the Brazilian associate Ponte de Pedra S.A., for which preliminary agreements for the group’s sale of its entire 50% investment therein to third parties were signed at the end of 2007, the conditions precedent provided for in such agreements were met in April 2008. Therefore, the sale was finalised on 30 April 2008. The transaction gave rise to a net gain of approximately euro 67.5 million, including roughly euro 11 million of the accumulated translation reserve at the sale date recognised as gains (losses) on investments in profit or loss. The net proceeds of the transaction approximated euro 109 million, including the contractually provided for price adjustment, calculated on the positive difference in the Brazilian associate’s financial position at the sale date compared to that at 31 December 2007. In accordance with the agreements entered into in 2006 for the sale of the group’s entire investment in the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. and on the basis of the appraisal prepared by an independent expert in July 2008, the following financial aspects came to light:

(i) with reference to the price adjustment based on the Chilean company’s performance, which was better than that forecast in the business plan on which the sales consideration was based, Impregilo International Infrastructures identified an approximate net euro 8.2 million during the third quarter of 2008 for this contractual component based on the above appraisal. The group had prudently recognised a profit from discontinued operations of approximately euro 2.5 million determined at the time of the sale for this price adjustment as the minimum guaranteed amount. There was, therefore, a positive difference of euro 5.7 million;

(ii) with reference to the agreement which guaranteed Impregilo International Infrastructure’s right to subscribe 10% of the buyer’s share capital at its nominal amount, and the buyer’s parent’s right to repurchase such option, the fair value of Impregilo International Infrastructure’s right was estimated at euro 34.9 million, based on the independent appraisal as described above.

Both components were received in the last part of 2008 and the related effects were recognised as a profit from discontinued operations under IFRS 5 being components of the sales consideration. This section summarises the main events that affected operations in 2008 in the Concessions segment.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Brazil The group is active in Brazil in the motorway concessions and logistics sector via its jointly controlled subsidiary Primav Ecorodovias S.A.. The motorway concessions sector performed satisfactorily in 2008. Revenue earned by Primav Ecorodovias S.A., determined in proportion to the group’s investment therein, amounted to euro 108.8 million (euro 84.5 million) while the operating profit came in at euro 52.9 million (euro 42.8 million), equal to 48.6% (50.7%) of revenue. The three concession companies, which provide access to the three key ports in South America Santos, Paranaguà and Rio Grande do Sul saw an improvement in traffic volumes compared to the previous year. By its subsidiary Ecopatio, Primav Ecorodovias continued to develop a logistics centre near the Santos Port, linked to San Paolo by a motorway managed by the related company Ecovias, in 2008. This centre will consist of a car park for heavy vehicles providing a connection service for logistics operators which will be extended to provide customs activities. It will also include a logistics centre for container handling, connected to the Santos port. Work on a second logistics centre commenced near San Paolo, again along the motorway managed by Ecovias.

54 Argentina The Argentine market, where the Concession segment is active in motorway management and electrical energy transmission, still presents significant critical issues due to the non re-negotiation of contracts in line with the Argentine monetary policy and the local authorities’ continued policy of freezing tariffs following the economic crisis which began at the end of 2001. The key events of the year were: Mercovia S.A. (subsidiary): this company holds the concession for the road connector that links the cities of Santo Tomè (Argentina) and Sao Borja (Brazil). It also provides customs services and goods warehousing services. It benefited from the rising volumes traded between the two countries, recording revenue of euro 3.7 million in 2008 compared to euro 3.1 million for 2007. Its operating profit was euro 0.5 million (euro 0.3 million). Caminos de Las Sierras S.A. (subsidiary, “Caminos”): this concession company continued to suffer from the non-adjustment of tariffs (expressly required by the emergency law of 2001). Its continued precarious financial situation, despite the repeated requests and negotiation proposals presented to the Province of Cordoba (the concession grantor), obliged the subsidiary to commence the administrative and legal procedures to withdraw from the concession contract in September 2007, for reasons attributable to the concession grantor. Impregilo concurrently commenced proceedings with the International Arbitration Tribunal of International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) to protect its investment in Caminos. Non-recognition of the tariff adjustment has also made it necessary for the subsidiary to present a request for admission to an arrangement with creditors on 18 December 2008. This request was accepted on 30 December 2008. Following acceptance of the procedure, the carrying amount of Caminos’ remaining assets was fully impaired and additional provisions of euro 18.0 million were made. In January 2009, the Governor of the Province of Cordoba issued a decree increasing the 2009 tariffs by 50% and another 50% for 2010. However, the concession company is required to make additional investments in the motorway concession. These measures do not enable Caminos to return to a balanced financial position and it has partly challenged the decree while not modifying the above assessments. Puentes del Litoral (associate): the carrying amount of this investment continues to be fully impaired in the financial statements together with its receivables due to the group given the critical issues noted in previous years. Although it has an ongoing bankruptcy proceeding, the risk is not material for the group. Aguas del Gran Buenos Aires S.A. (associate): in liquidation since 2006 following the arbitrary termination of the concession contract by the Province of Buenos Aires, the associate continued to manage its appeals against this measure commenced in international and domestic courts in 2008. The situation does not lead to additional risks for the group as it had already fully impaired the investment in the concession company in previous years.

United Kingdom The group is active in the UK construction, hospital and car park management sectors. Impregilo Parking Glasgow Ltd. (subsidiary) has a concession valid until 2034 for a multi storey car park at the Glasgow hospital with 1,400 spaces. The car park was opened during 2005. 2008 revenue was euro 1.8 million (euro 2.0 million) and the operating profit amounted to euro 0.6 million (euro 0.5 million) after amortisation and depreciation of euro 0.4 million (euro 0.5 million). The group is also involved, via its subsidiaries, in construction of the new oncological unit at the Oxford hospital (substantially 55 completed in 2008), funded with project financing. The related completion certificate was issued on 5 January 2009. The associate Ochre Solutions Holding Ltd, in which the group has a 40% investment, manages the concession, for which the operating stage has now commenced. To date, the renovation of an old building of the hospital has still to be completed and the due date for this is expected to be the end of 2009. The group also has a contract for the maintenance of hospital equipment and buildings of the radiological unit at the Wolverhampton hospital in England.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

China The group operates in the energy generation from renewable sources sector with a plant in the Province of Shanghai owned by Shanghai Pucheng Thermal Power Energy Co. Ltd., a 50% joint venture with a local state body. The joint venture generated revenue, in proportion to the group’s investment percentage, of euro 13.8 million (euro 11.9 million) and an operating profit of euro 4.8 million (euro 3.7 million), after amortisation and depreciation of euro 1.9 million (euro 1.8 million). The group has a development strategy for China which involves acquisitions for its Concessions segment in order to achieve an adequate size for the local company’s listing on the stock exchange.

Acquisition of new concessions Brazil – Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovias das Cataratas) On 6 February 2008, the jointly controlled subsidiary Primav Ecorodovias (the other partner is the Brazilian company CR Almeida) executed its acquisition of 100% of the Brazilian company Rodovias das Cataratas S.A., subsequently called Ecocataratas, which holds a motorway concession in the Paranà state. The investment cost approximately R$ 425 million and was financed by Primav Ecorodovias by taking out a loan.

56 The purchase price allocation (PPA) procedure required by IFRS 3 has been completed. The difference between the price paid to the seller and the related carrying amount of the acquired equity has mostly been allocated to the asset under concession.

Risk areas The risk areas basically relate to the group’s subsidiaries and associates operating in Argentina. The group carried out specific appraisals of the situation in the past and updated them to reflect the developments affecting Caminos. Accordingly, impairment losses of approximately euro 18 million have been recognised on the subsidiary’s remaining assets and additional provisions made. To date, no additional critical issues have come to light. The full impairment losses on the carrying amounts of the group’s investments in the associates Puentes de Litoral S.A. and Aguas del Gran Buenos Aires S.A. and loans due from them have been maintained. IMPREPAR – IMPREGILO PARTECIPAZIONI S.P.A. (IN LIQUIDATION)

Performance Liquidation of the company continued during 2008 in line with the guidelines set out in the plan, updated at the end of 2007. The net invested capital of Imprepar and its subsidiaries, which amounted to euro 53.3 million at 31 December 2007, decreased by euro 11.4 million during the year, coming in at euro 41.9 million at 31 December 2008. This decrease was mainly due to: • final settlement of the disputes with ANAS related to the Antignano contract, whereby Imprepar’s share of the receivables collected from the state body came to euro 10.6 million and the loans granted to the consortium company Antignano S.c.a.r.l. of euro 2.6 million were repaid to Imprepar; • settlement with the Italian partner of the foreign joint ventures set up for the Owen Falls and Kapichira projects, under which Imprepar was repaid the loans granted to the joint ventures of euro 4.0 million; • collection of euro 1.5 million following transfer of the deferred portion of the sales price for Imprepar’s investment in the Argentine company Constructora Alicopà to IECSA and collection of the outstanding receivable of euro 1.7 million from an African state-owned customer; 57 • the approximate euro 5.9 million adjustment made following issue of an arbitration award in favour of the subsidiary Incave, for which provisions for risks had been set up and were now excessive; this lead to a similar increase in invested capital; • payment of euro 1.6 million to settle payables related to foreign joint ventures for which the related agreements had been reached in previous years. The almost ten-year dispute with the Arezzo municipal authorities for the Bisaccioni car park construction and management concession was resolved at the end of December 2008. The company will pay the municipal authorities euro 1.5 million as compensation for its management damaging the car park in the years from 2000 to 2008 while the authorities have recognised its right to collect the contributions of euro 7 million under the Tognoli law accrued during the management period over the next six years. This situation did not affect the company’s financial position as the related effects had already been reflected in the financial statements in previous years. The companies headed by Imprepar recorded a profit for the year of euro 4.7 million, mainly due to the interest accrued on the company’s liquidity. They reported a net financial position for the year of euro 107.3 million, consisting of euro 112.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and euro 4.7 million of bank debt. Guarantees given to third parties decreased by euro 27.3 million, from euro 81.4 million at 31 December 2007 to euro 54.1 million at 31 December 2008.

Risk areas The company is currently involved in a large number of legal cases and out-of-court disputes for which the total amount claimed by it (including requested amounts and claims) approximates euro 375 million (euro 420 million), while the total nominal amount claimed by counterparties totals approximately euro 210 million (euro 240 million).The decrease relates to the judicial and extrajudicial settlement of cases and disputes during the year, the main ones of which have been described earlier.As reported in previous year, many of the claims to/by the company relate to the same dispute and should be assessed together as part of the individual project to which they relate. It cannot be excluded that additional events may come to light in the future that are not currently foreseeable despite the attention paid to any changes that might alter the risk profile of each dispute. These may require further adjustments to be made.

IMPREGILO GROUP RISK MANAGEMENT

Impregilo Group uses its complex and articulated risk management process as an important strategic tool in achieving its objectives in terms of creating utmost value for shareholders. The diversification of the group’s operating activities, both in core business sectors and in discontinued operations means management faces a wide variety of issues, which, in many cases, are difficult to foresee. Depending on the various operating situations and the different resulting risk types that can arise, management has created specific ongoing management and monitoring strategies to limit as far as possible fluctuations in cash flows due to the development of situations that arise. To this end, the risk areas existing currently are described in the sections on each segment’s performance so as to allow comparison with the comments given in the 2007 consolidated financial statements and an analysis of any new situations that have arisen at the date of preparation of this report. These descriptions are integrated by additional general considerations about risks common to the entire group’s operations. The key types of risks identified and monitored by Impregilo are: (i) operating risk being the risk related to performance of contracts and relationships with individual customers. (ii) financial risk, split into the following components: 58 • market risk deriving from the group’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations, exchange rate fluctuations and, with respect to the Engineering & Plant Construction Segment, commodity price volatility; • credit risk deriving from the group’s exposure to potential losses arising from the customers’ non-compliance with their obligations; • liquidity risk deriving from the risk that the financial resources necessary to meet obligations may not be available at the agreed terms and deadlines. The notes to the consolidated and separate financial statements give detailed information about management of these risks. NON-CURRENT ASSETS CLASSIFIED AS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

I. USW CAMPANIA PROJECTS: THE SITUATION AT 31 DECEMBER 2008 As already described in detail in previous reports, Impregilo group became involved in the urban solid waste disposal projects in the Province of Naples and other provinces in Campania at the end of the 1990’s through its subsidiaries FIBE and FIBE Campania (the “companies”). From 2000 to 2003, the companies completed the construction of the RDF plants, built for them by other Impregilo group companies, namely FISIA Italimpianti and FISIA Babcock Environment (for the electromechanical parts) and Impregilo Edilizia e Servizi (for the civil works) and took the steps necessary to produce RDF and store it temporarily until the waste-to-energy plants were ready. Over the years, the situation began to become increasingly critical due to the following main factors: • non-commencement by the Campania Regional Authorities of the scheduled separated waste collection with the related agreed volumes, an essential factor underpinning the project and service contracts agreed by the companies with the government commissioner; • inadequate landfill areas made available by the government commissioner; • commencement of activities at the Acerra waste-to-energy plant, which should have commenced as per the contract in 2001, only in August 2004 following the extraordinary intervention of more than 450 policemen who cleared the work areas occupied since January 2003 by demonstrators; 59 • the Santa Maria La Fossa waste-to-energy plant only obtained the E.I.V. (environmental impact valuation) in 2007, although activities should have started there concurrently with those at Acerra; • on 12 May 2004, the Naples Public Prosecutor seized the plants with their concurrent release on attachment bond as part of proceedings which included investigation of the directors of the group companies involved in the project (FIBE, FIBE Campania and FISIA Italimpianti) and top management of the commission; • an increasing number of municipalities, companies and inter-municipality consortia started to not pay the tariffs due to the companies for the treatment of their waste with the result that the companies saw a significant rise in receivables leading to the inevitable financial tension; • given this critical situation, the banks that had granted FIBE project financing to construct the RDF plants and waste-to-energy plant at Acerra suspended all further disbursements (they had granted euro 173.5 million); moreover, the negotiations aimed at agreeing similar funding for the RDF plants and waste-to-energy plant of FIBE Campania (at Santa Maria La Fossa) were interrupted; these circumstances worsened the two companies’ financial positions and that of the entire Impregilo group (as FISIA and Impregilo Edilizia e Servizi were engaged to build the RDF plants and the waste-to energy plants and FISIA also provided plant management services). Given this situation, beginning from early 2005, measures and procedures were adopted at top institutional levels following the direct involvement of the Italian government to return the project to its original status and normal operating conditions. Specifically: • the overdue receivables for the waste tariffs through to 31 December 2004 should have been recovered following issue of Law decree no. 14 of 17 February 2005 (converted into Law no. 53 of 15 April 2005) whereby Cassa Depositi e Prestiti should have ensured payment of the outstanding amounts under a specific procedure of roughly 60 days; • recovery of the receivables overdue after that date should have taken place by the appointment of ad acta commissioners by the extraordinary government commissioner using its powers assigned by the Prime Minister’s order (“OPCM”) no. 3397 of 28 January 2005; • the problems related to the judicial seizure of the plants would have been resolved by implementation of a “Programme for structured and management actions for RDF plants” prepared by the commissioner and subject, for certain aspects, to the approval of the Naples public prosecutor, which should have allowed their release from seizure within six months as per the “Conformity Deed” signed by FIBE and FIBE Campania;

• with respect to the availability of the landfill areas, the government commissioner issued an order on 7 December 2004 for the Monte Sarchio landfill and another for the Campania landfill on 1 April 2005. These orders substantially established that, upon the closure of the then used landfills, two new sites in the Campania region would be set up and used to ensure at least one year of regular performance of the project and giving rise to the concurrent reasonable belief that the issue of the landfills could be managed positively after that time period. Based on these assumptions, the directors of both FIBE and FIBE Campania approved a business plan for the period of the service on a going concern basis. However, a number of events took place in the following months that significantly negatively altered the assumptions inferred from the legal and administrative measures. Specifically: • Cassa Depositi e Prestiti had not yet shown any signs of applying the measures set out in Law decree no. 14/2005 (converted into Law no. 53/2005) many months after its issue and, therefore, the receivables overdue at 31 December 2004 were still outstanding with further problems about the collection of those that became due in 2005; • following social-political agreements, the government commissioner had delayed the use of one of the two previously authorised landfills 60 and had not allowed preparation of the second. This implied that, in order not to disrupt services, FIBE and FIBE Campania had to use private landfills outside the region fully bearing the very high and unplanned disposal and transportation costs from April. No feedback from the commissioner was received about their request for reimbursement; • meanwhile, the government commissioner, with a writ of summons of May 2005, took legal action claiming compensation from FIBE, FIBE Campania and FISIA for alleged damage being the costs it incurred in the past to transport waste outside the region (subsequent sections of this report give more information about this dispute); • the banks that had given the first instalment of euro 173.5 million of the project financing agreed with FIBE not only confirmed that they would not provide the rest of the financing but also formally requested that the project financing structure be dismantled as it was no longer considered suitable given the critical situation of the USW Campania project. In this situation, Law decree no. 245 (converted into Law no. 21 of 27 January 2006) was issued on 30 November 2005 and became applicable on 15 December. It: a) terminated the contracts between FIBE S.p.A., FIBE Campania S.p.A. and the extraordinary government commissioner for the Campania Waste Emergency on an ope legis basis “without prejudice to any claims arising from the terminated contracts” (article 1.1); b) required the commissioner to: (i) identify “urgently”, with a “swift EU” procedure, the new parties to which the waste disposal service for Campania should have been awarded, taking over the contracts from FIBE and FIBE Campania (article 1.2); (ii) construct “the landfills ... continue work to build the waste-to-energy plants at Acerra and Santa Maria la Fossa” (article 6.2); c) provided that responsibility for and the cost of managing the USW Campania project be transferred to the commissioner, pending the identification of new providers of the waste treatment service during the transition period, without prejudice to FIBE and FIBE Campania’s obligation to provide the service against their right to claim payment from the commissioner’s office of expenses and costs incurred in this regard (article 1.7, as modified by the aforesaid Law decree no. 263/2006); d) set specific regulations for: (i) “speeding up the procedure to obtain payment” of the waste disposal tariffs (article 2); (ii) “guaranteeing that the separate waste collection objectives are met … and resolution of the current emergency situation” (article 5). In order to assist the tender procedure described in paragraph “b.i”, FIBE and FIBE Campania complied with the commissioner’s request in March 2006 to formalise a sale promise, irrevocable until 30 September 2006 (“statements of promises to sell”). They thus committed themselves to selling the following assets to the commissioner (or parties indicated by it upon the outcome of the tender): • the waste-to-energy plant in Acerra at its carrying amount on 15 December 2005, increased by additional entries made by the current owner FIBE for work carried out and to capitalise financial expense and technical costs in the period between 16 December 2005 and the payment date; • the land on which the waste-to-energy plant of Santa Maria La Fossa is to be constructed, owned by FIBE Campania, for its carrying amount at 15 December 2005; • sundry equipment used to manage the waste treatment plants and RDF stocking sites, owned by FIBE, FIBE Campania and FISIA Italimpianti, at their carrying amount at 15 December 2005; 61 • the RDF stocking sites and related stocked materials of FIBE and FIBE Campania at their carrying amount at 15 December 2005; this amount did not include two stocking sites not recognised by the commissioner; in addition, the promises to sell provided that part thereof may be decreased by a maximum of 15%. The tenders published on 31 March 2006 also provided that the parties would have had to pay FIBE and FIBE Campania for the right to use the RDF plants (which are owned by the government commissioner) the “unamortised costs incurred by the previous providers of the service up until 15 December 2005”. The tender called on 31 March 2006 was not awarded since only two bids were presented, one of which by a non-eligible bidder. With respect to this situation, the public institutions involved showed their intention to begin a new procedure, calling bids from throughout the and committing themselves to conducting the procedure in a significantly shorter time span than the previous one. They asked FIBE and FIBE Campania to renew their “statements of promises to sell” as described above. This request was accepted and the statements were renewed until 31 March 2007. In August 2006, the tender for the allocation of the urban solid waste disposal services for the Campania region was called again. The assets to be sold and the amounts were unchanged from the previous tender. Given the continued critical waste situation in the region, the government issued two Law decrees aimed at resolving it. Specifically: a) Law decree no. 263 of 9 October 2006 (converted into Law no. 290 of 6 December 2006) which, inter alia: (i) appointed a new commissioner, the head of the Civil Protection Department, who reported directly to the Prime Minister (article 1.1); (ii) cancelled the tender called in August 2006 (article 3.1); (iii) required the new commissioner to redefine “the conditions for allocation of the waste disposal service in Campania” (article 3.1); (iv) amended Law no. 21/2006 establishing that the current holders of the contract are required to continue to provide the service until the tender is closed, and this “considering the necessary transfer of duties to the new holders, including those related to personnel and any movable and immovable property that should be transferred, given their use, age and maintenance” (article 3.1-bis);

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

(v) provided for measures aimed at ensuring the effective separate collection of urban solid waste (article 4); (vi) extended the transition period for the waste emergency situation in Campania until 31 December 2007 (article 1.1); b) Law decree no. 61 of 11 May 2007 (converted into Law no. 87 of 5 July 2007) which, inter alia: (i) opened, “also to avoid new emergency situations”, new sites to be used as landfills (article 1.1); (ii) requested the commissioner to identify “urgently … also by directly engaging parties other than the current service providers ... the best possible solutions for the treatment and disposal of waste and possible disposal of waste bales” (article 2); (iii) requested the commissioner to adopt “a plan for introduction of an integrated waste cycle in Campania” (article 9). On 5 July 2007, concurrently with the issue of the aforesaid legal measure, a new extraordinary commissioner for the waste emergency in Campania was appointed, namely the Naples Prefect. Following specific requests presented by FIBE and FIBE Campania, on 10 August 2007, the commissioner provided for the speeding up of the process aimed at reimbursing the two companies the costs incurred by them to manage the service which they had not yet received and for the direct payment by its offices of personnel expenses and subcontracting costs related to the provision of the service by them.

62 In Autumn 2007, the commissioner recommenced the procedures for the preparation of a new tender to identify an USW service operator. To overcome the problems that beset the previous tenders, the commissioner started an in-depth preliminary survey of the actual situation of the plants and equipment as well as the related labour required to provide the service under tender. It was assisted in this by FIBE and FIBE Campania. This survey was based on formats that reflected those underlying the original contracts with FIBE and FIBE Campania that had been terminated: a) geographical: the survey focused on two areas: the Province of Naples and other provinces; b) technical: the existing RDF plants and the Acerra waste-to-energy plant, still under construction. A new tender was called in December 2007 for solely the USW disposal service in the Province of Naples. At the start of the first quarter of 2008, the commissioner received expressions of interest from two major industrial groups active in the waste treatment and energy generation sector. After having requested and obtained an extension of the tender until the end of January 2008, they withdrew from the procedure, communicating their doubts about the existence of both suitable guarantees from the body calling the tender about the availability of landfills for the waste from the RDF processing and suitable certainty about the availability of the benefits provided for under measure “CIP6” for the Acerra waste-to-energy plant under construction for the sale of electricity generated by the plant at favourable tariffs. Given this situation and the further worsening in the waste collection and disposal emergency in the region, the Prime Minister issued orders nos. 3656 and 3657 of 6 February and 20 February 2008, respectively: (i) the first confirmed the benefits provided for by measure “CIP6” for the Acerra waste-to-energy plant: these benefits were confirmed by Law no. 31 of 28 February 2008 whereby, during conversion of the “Milleproroghe decree” “for the plant ... in Acerra ... the government grants and incentives provided for by the Interministerial price committee resolution no. 6 of 29 April 1992 ... are due”;; (ii) the second authorised the disposal of the waste treated by the RDF plants in the waste-to-energy plant under construction (both before and after termination of the contracts as per the aforesaid Law no. 21/2006) and currently stored in the region. After issue of these orders, the government intervened again directly enacting significant measures aimed at resolving the existing situation, including the allocation of the position as extraordinary commissioner for the waste emergency in Campania which had been held to then by the under-secretary of state that reported to the Prime Minister to the head of the Civil Protection Department. These measures were: a) Law decree no. 90 of 23 May 2008 and Law decree no. 107 of 17 June 2008, both converted into Law no. 123 of 14 July 2008. The conversion law, inter alia: (i) confirmed FIBE’s obligation to complete the Acerra waste-to-energy plant (see article 6-bis.4); (ii) expressly authorised “use of the Acerra waste-to-energy plant” (see article 5.2) and combustion of the “eco-bales” (see article 5.1); (iii) authorised “construction of the Santa Maria La Fossa waste-to-energy plant” (see article 5.3) and “construction of a waste-to-energy plant in the Naples municipality” (see article 8.1); (iv) provided for the possible allocation of the benefit of the CIP 6 “for the waste-to-energy plants located in the Salerno, Naples and Santa Maria La Fossa municipalities” (see article 8-bis. 1); (v) definitively authorised Impregilo group’s exit from the waste disposal business, transferring “title” to the RDF plants “located in their municipalities” to the provincial authorities (see article 6-bis.1) and providing for “the involvement of the Armed Forces for the technical and operating management of the plants” (see article 6-bis.3); 63 (vi) ordered “an assessment of the value” of the RDF plants and Acerra waste-to-energy plant “also for the possible purchase against consideration by the new service operator” and that the assessment of the RDF plants be carried out considering “their effective use, age and maintenance” (see article 6.1); (vii) ordered that “all the disputes […] about the waste management service be deferred to the exclusive jurisdiction of the administrative judge” (see article 4.1); b) Law decree no. 97 of 3 June 2008, converted into Law no. 129 of 2 August 2008 which, inter alia, required the Ministry for Economic Development, together with the Ministry for the Environment, to establish “the methods to provide government incentives, as per resolution no. 6 of 29 April 1992 of the Interministerial price committee, to the waste-to-energy plants located in the municipalities of Salerno, Naples and Caserta”; c) Order of the Prime Minister no. 3685 of 19 June 2008 which provided for, inter alia: (i) transfer of the “operating resources present in each plant” to the municipalities that gain title to the RDF plants; (ii) taking over of the employees of the RDF plants (other than management) by the municipalities using term employment contracts; d) Decree no. 3299 of 30 June 2008 and letter no. 1882 of the same date, both issued by the under-secretary of state which, inter alia, included orders related to: (i) completion by FIBE of the Acerra waste-to-energy plant; (ii) transfer of management of the RDF plants to the municipalities. These measures are of fundamental importance given that, in short: a) the Acerra waste-to-energy plant must be completed by FIBE and will be operative within a few months (early 2009); b) combustion of the “eco-bales” is expressly provided for at this plant; c) an additional two waste-to-energy plants will be built, benefiting from CIP 6, like the Acerra waste-to-energy plant; d) management of the RDF plants has been definitively taken from FIBE and FIBE Campania and title thereto has been transferred to the Campania municipal authorities while they will be managed by the Armed Forces.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Following enactment of these measures, and as coordinated by the relevant commission offices, FIBE and FIBE Campania took steps to ensure they were fully implemented. Specifically: a) possession of all the plants and related assets by the relevant commission offices has been completed; b) in July 2008, the relevant authority commenced a preliminary investigation to identify the costs already incurred and not yet paid to third parties for work performed after the contracts had been terminated and the activities currently ongoing and required to complete the roll out of the Acerra waste-to-energy plant; c) after the due meetings with the trade unions, the procedure to decrease FIBE's personnel and to transfer them to the relevant commissioner has been completed. In the last few months of the year, a new party has been identified for the plant’s management, namely a leading Italian company which currently owns other major waste-to-energy and RDF plants.

II. THE LITIGATION CURRENTLY PENDING FOR THE USW CAMPANIA PROJECTS 64 II.1 The administrative litigation A). In October 2006, FIBE and FIBE Campania took legal action before the Lazio Regional Administrative Court censuring the commissioner’s failure to comply with its obligations under Law decree no. 245/2005 (converted into Law no. 21/2006), namely: (i) recovery of amounts due by municipalities for waste disposal services outstanding at the date of termination of the contracts (15 December 2005); and (ii) identification of landfills for organic waste and stockpiles generated by the RDF plants and preparation and implementation of a plant maintenance plan. After accepting the precautionary motion presented by FIBE and FIBE Campania (in its ruling of 11 October 2006, confirmed by the Council of State on 7 November 2006), in its decision no. 3790 filed on 27 April 2007, the Court found that: (i) FIBE and FIBE Campania effectively provided the waste disposal service under the 2000 and 2001 contracts up until 15 December 2005; (ii) due to the ope legis termination of the service contracts, FIBE and FIBE Campania “with effect from 15 December 2005 merely provided the service on behalf of the commissioner [waste disposal] and had definitively lost title thereto”; (iii) the commission should complete the procedure aimed at meeting the companies’ requests within 45 days; (iv) an ad acta commissioner to take the necessary measures within a further 45 days, should the local administrative bodies not fulfil their obligations, would be appointed. The commissioner appealed against this ruling with the Council of State. Ruling no. 6057 of 28 November 2007 rejected the appeal, fully confirming the ruling of the Lazio Regional Administrative Court. B). The Lazio Regional Administrative Court recently confirmed the findings of its ruling no. 3790/2007 in its ruling no. 7280 of 23 July 2008. C). In December 2008, FIBE and FIBE Campania challenged a number of orders before the Lazio Regional Administrative Court whereby the parties appointed by the commissioner for technical and operating activities (Technical-operational head under Prime Minister’s no. 3705/2008 and the ad acta commissioners for the provinces) obliged the companies to re-acquire possession of certain areas and storage sites, which such parties had acquired in August 2008, as these areas and stocking sites were not deemed necessary to provide the service. Following the hearing of 19 January 2009, the Court suspended the enforceability of the challenged measures and accepted the appeal made by FIBE and FIBE Campania in its ruling no. 84/09 on 4 March 2009, cancelling the challenged measures. II.2 The civil litigation The government commissioner presented a writ of summons in May 2005 requesting compensation from FIBE, FIBE Campania and FISIA Italimpianti for alleged damage of approximately euro 43 million. During the hearing, the commissioner increased its claims to approximately euro 700 million, further to the additional claim for damage to its reputation, calculated to be euro 1 billion. The companies appeared before the court to dispute the claims made by the government commissioner and lodged a counterclaim requesting compensation for damage and sundry charges determined before the court of first instance for a total of euro 667.5 million, plus another claim for damage to their reputation of euro 1.5 billion. They also complained about the significant delay (compared to that provided for in the 2000 and 2001 contracts) in the release of the authorisations required to construct the waste-to-energy plants and the related delay in the construction of such plants. These delays have led to both the lengthening of the temporary stocking periods of the produced “eco-bales” and an increase in the stocked “eco-bales” with the related need to find bigger stocking areas: circumstances that led to the incurring of greater costs by FIBE and FIBE Campania. In the same proceeding, the banks that issued FIBE and FIBE Campania’s performance bonds to the government commissioner, also requested that the commissioner’s claim be rejected. In addition, they requested to be held harmless by Impregilo from the commissioner’s claims. Impregilo appeared before the court and disputed the banks’ requests. 65 The ruling is still at a preliminary stage. At the hearing of 20 January 2009 to verify the correctness of the cross examination, the companies’ legal counsel raised the objection of the ordinary court’s jurisdiction as opposed to the administrative court (see earlier with respect to Law no. 123/2009). The judge has reserved its decision on this objection.

II.3 The penal litigation In September 2006, the Public Prosecutor at the Court of Naples served Impregilo S.p.A., Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V., FIBE S.p.A., FIBE Campania S.p.A., FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. and Gestione Napoli S.p.A. in liquidation with a “Notice of the conclusion of the preliminary investigations about the administrative liability of companies” related to the alleged administrative crime pursuant to article 24 of Legislative decree no. 231/2001 as part of a criminal case against several former directors and employees of the above companies, investigated for the crimes as per article 640.1.1/2 of the Penal Code in relation to the tenders for management of the urban solid waste disposal cycle in Campania. Following the preliminary hearing of 29 February 2008, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing at the Court of Naples accepted the request for a hearing made by the Public Prosecutor. The first hearing for the merits of the case was held on 14 May 2008 and the proceeding is still ongoing. The Public Prosecutor requested the following precautionary measures relating to: • “assets”, pursuant to article 19 of Legislative decree no. 231/2001 (seizure: of the RDF production plants and Acerra waste-to-energy plant; approximately euro 43 million belonging to the Impregilo group companies; receivables of approximately euro 109 million due to FIBE and FIBE Campania from municipalities in the Campania region); and • “interdiction”, pursuant to article 9 of Legislative decree no. 231/2001 (or: ban on negotiating with the public bodies; exclusion from subsidies, loans and similar assistance, ban on advertising goods and services).

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

In its ruling of 26 June 2007, the Judge for the Preliminary Investigation ordered the preventive seizure of the profit from the alleged crime, estimated at approximately euro 750 million; specifically, the Judge ordered the preventive seizure of: • euro 53,000,000.00, equal to the amount advanced by the commissioner to construct the plants in provinces other than Naples; • the total amount of euro 301,641,238.98 for the regularly collected waste tariffs; • certain, liquid and due receivables due from the municipalities and not yet collected of euro 141,701,456.56; • the expense incurred by the commissioner for the disposal of the USW and related processing at the RDF plants of euro 99,092,457.23; • euro 51,645,689.90 being the missing guarantee deposit, payment of which had been agreed to guarantee correct compliance with contractual obligations; • amounts received as premiums for the collection service performed on behalf of the commissioner and municipalities to be determined upon enforcement; • euro 103,404,000.00 being the value of the works carried out to build the Acerra waste-to-energy plant up to 31 December 2005. The Judge for the Preliminary Investigation also ordered that the companies were banned from contracting with the public bodies for one 66 year with respect to waste disposal, treatment and waste-to-energy activities as an interdiction measure; this finished in June 2008. The precautionary measures ordered by the Judge for the Preliminary Investigation did not imply the expropriation of the assets but their “blocking” as they continued to be owned by the parties to which they “belonged” and could only be expropriated after the relevant rulings had been issued by the Court of Naples, the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. However, the precautionary measure was partly executed with the seizure of liquidity of approximately euro 124.8 million deposited by Impregilo, FISIA Italimpianti, FIBE and FIBE Campania with several banks as well as receivables of approximately euro 190 million of FIBE and FIBE Campania from local administrative bodies for activities performed prior to 15 December 2005. The seizure precautionary measure was appealed against on 7 July 2007. The Review Court however rejected the appeal on 24 July 2007. The precautionary seizure measure, confirmed by the Review Court, was appealed against with the Supreme Court on 5 November 2007. The Second Chamber of the Supreme Court, charged to hear the appeal, referred the relevant ruling to the United Chambers on 23 January 2008. On 27 March 2008, the United Chambers cancelled and deferred the seizure measure: a) on one side, confirming the principle whereby “the profit from the crime ... is the direct and immediate economic benefit of the crime and can be accurately calculated net of the effective use obtained by the damaged party, as part of the bilateral relationship with the body”; b) on the other, noting that neither the Judge for the Preliminary Investigation nor the Naples Review Court correctly applied this principle. Specifically, as the United Chambers stated: “the reasoning on which [the Review Court’s decision] is based, while considering the factual issues of the events examined, leads to partial and simplistic legal considerations with respect to the concept of “profit”, it does not take into account the notion as specifically set out above and, based solely on the serious breach of contract by the service providers, ends by identifying the assets that can be seized in an abstract manner, without properly checking the relationship between the illegal act and the advantage obtained”. The Supreme Court also analysed the individual items subject to the precautionary seizure in detail, concluding that: (i) none of the above items, except for the tariff net of VAT, constitute “profit from crime”; (ii) the amount of the tariff (net of VAT) that can legitimately be seized is to be determined deducting the value of the services provided by FIBE and FIBE Campania to the benefit of the municipalities from the tariff. In this respect, the following should be emphasised: - the Supreme Court acknowledges that “the service provided” by FIBE and FIBE Campania “was not always characterised by illegality and took place over a long period of time without being formally challenged by the municipalities”; - the Lazio Regional Administrative Court and the Council of State (with the mentioned rulings no. 3790/2007 and no. 6057/2007) recognised that these companies effectively provided the waste elimination service entrusted to them under the 2000 and 2001 contracts up until 15 December 2005. Following this Supreme Court ruling, with its order filed on 7 August 2008, the Review Court ordered that the measure be cancelled and the assets effectively seized be immediately returned. On 18 August 2008, the Naples Public Prosecutor presented an appeal to the Supreme Court against this order. The latter Court deferred the ruling in its hearing of 18 February 2009 to 16 April 2009. * * * Again during the second quarter of 2008, as part of a new inquiry by the Court of Naples into waste disposal and related activities in the region carried out after the ope legis termination of the contracts (15 December 2005), the Judge for the Preliminary Investigations issued 67 personal preventive seizure measures upon the request of the Public Prosecutor against certain managers and employees of FIBE, FIBE Campania and FISIA Italimpianti and managers of the commissioner’s office. The preliminary hearing was concluded on 29 January 2009 with all the defendants being committed for trial. As part of this inquiry, the former service providers and FISIA Italimpianti are again challenged for the administrative liability of companies under Legislative decree no. 231/01. The related deeds describe how this is a both a continuation of the previous investigations and a new proceeding based on new allegations. The group companies involved in the new proceeding are fully convinced of the legitimacy of their actions, also because their activities are not only expressly covered by Law no. 21/2006 but were also carried out merely on behalf of the commissioner (see the rulings of the Lazio Regional Administrative Court and Council of State in paragraph II.A.).

III. THE DIRECTORS’ CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT THE SITUATION AT 31 DECEMBER 2008 The group’s situation with respect to the USW Campania projects at the end of 2008 and in early 2009 continues to be extremely complex and uncertain in some cases (as can be seen from the wealth of the above information). It also contains certain elements that would seem to be very significant for the resolution of the existing critical issues. In fact, as mentioned above: a) at a legislative level, important measures were adopted in 2008, thanks to which: (i) the Acerra waste-to-energy plant must be finished by FIBE; (ii) combustion of the “eco-bales” is expressly provided for; (iii) other waste-to-energy plants will be built, benefiting from CIP 6, like the Acerra waste-to-energy plant; (iv) management of the RDF plants has been definitively taken from FIBE and FIBE Campania and title thereto has been transferred to the Campania municipal authorities while they will be managed by the Armed Forces; (v) the Acerra waste-to-energy plant and RDF plants will be assessed “also for the purposes of their possible purchase against consideration by the new service operators”;

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

b) at a judicial level: (i) the Naples Review Court cancelled in full the seizure ordered by the Naples Judge for the Preliminary Investigation on 26 July 2007 implementing the decision of the United Chambers of the Supreme Court. This decision has been appealed against before the Supreme Court by the Naples Public Prosecutor. The related hearing will be held on 16 April 2009; (ii) two rulings of the administrative courts (see paragraph II.1.A.) expressly recognised that FIBE and FIBE Campania had effectively provided the waste disposal service assigned to them under the 2000 and 2001 contracts up until 15 December 2005; (iii) another ruling by the administrative court confirmed the principle whereby the temporary and definitive stocking sites are also to be taken over by the commissioner, cancelling the measures whereby the commissioner had ordered the former service providers to repurchase them (see the Lazio Regional Administrative Court’s ruling referred to earlier in section II.1.C). c) at an operating level: (i) the commissioner commenced the procedures for the direct settlement of both the operating costs of providing the service in 2008 that the third party suppliers had wrongly charged to the former service provides and of a (modest) part of the costs to complete the Acerra waste-to-energy plant; 68 (ii) in November 2008, the commissioner signed a services agreement for the management of the Acerra plant (and the former RDF plant in Caivano) with the company which performs the waste disposal service in the Municipality of Naples; (iii) in December 2008, the first tests of the working of the Acerra waste-to-energy plant were successfully carried out under the supervision of the commissioner. These tests were continued in early 2009 and the first line is due to be opened on schedule by the end of March 2009. Notwithstanding this improved legislative and judicial situation, although the group’s legal advisors agree with it that developments in the ongoing litigation will show the correctness of the group’s activities and considering the different civil suits presented by local bodies and third parties in the penal cases, also with respect to alleged environmental damage, Impregilo intends to further analyse the proceedings which, as noted, still present uncertainties. Therefore, the group has maintained both the impairment losses recognised at the end of 2007 on the net assets classified as held for sale relating to the USW Campania projects and the accruals to the provisions for risks made at that date. HUMAN RESOURCES AND ORGANISATION

The group continued its activities, commenced in previous years, aimed at implementing a training programme and creating an organisational model based on a streamlined structure and by rationalising structural costs during the year. The key events of the year are described below.

Training The group continued to implement a training programme during the year aimed at strengthening and developing professional skills in order to ensure the ongoing search for excellence in carrying out one’s duties, in performances and results. The training courses are provided to all employees with the objective of developing their technical-specialist expertise pertinent to their professional area and to build up managerial skills for each level of responsibility. In 2008, 711 group employees attended professional courses. These courses covered: • training for professional groups, aimed at providing a deeper knowledge of, and updates about issues of strategic importance to the group; • institutional courses, mainly provided to increase employees’ knowledge about management issues and compliance with relevant 69 legislation; • IT courses, tailored to meet the requirements of the different internal position.

The key courses related to: • the “Workshop on economic-financial information”, which focused on developing technical management skills in the economic-financial environment and improving familiarity with the group’s management control tools; • a course for the Employers on the new issues introduced by the “Consolidated Act for health and safety in the workplace” (Legislative decree no. 81/2008), which is part of a larger training programme on the safety and health of employees which will continue in 2009 and be extended to other contract personnel involved in implementing safety management and risk prevention systems; • continuation of the training and refresher courses for managers and junior managers about Legislative decree no. 231/2001 on the administrative liability of companies and on the “Organisation, management and control model” adopted pursuant to the decree, by both classroom training and e-learning. These training courses were “attended” by 278 junior managers around the world.

Sale of a business unit by FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. to FIBE S.p.A. - the two companies commenced the trade union negotiation procedure pursuant to article 47 of Law no. 428/1990 with letters dated 5 and 6 December 2007, respectively. This related to the sale of the “Gestione Impianti Campania” business unit by FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. to FIBE S.p.A.. The procedure was completed on 14 December 2007 and the related documents were signed confirming that the procedure had been carried out correctly. The transaction’s objective is to concentrate the expertise gained from management, treatment and elimination of USW produced in the provinces of Naples, Avellino, Benevento, Caserta and Salerno in one company (the contract holder for the USW disposal service after separate waste collection as per law). This was to facilitate the transfer of the related employees to the parties that will manage the service replacing FIBE and FIBE Campania. The transaction was effective with third parties from 1 February 2008. Employees with the business unit totalled 496.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Lay-off programme pursuant to articles 4 and 24 of Law no. 223/1991 FIBE S.p.A. - Following the decision to cease all business activities, in its letter dated 17 June 2008, FIBE S.p.A. commenced a lay-off procedure pursuant to articles 24 and 4 of Law no. 223/1991 to reduce its workforce availing of the “mobilità” scheme due to the ceasing of business activities (555 employees, 505 of which with a metal and mechanical national labour contract and 50 with a building national labour contract) at the different production sites in the five provinces of Campania. Following the joint request received from the relevant trade unions, the case was examined with them as per the law, with meetings held with the different trade unions on 30 June 2008 and 21 July 2008. The procedure was concluded on 31 July 2008 when the parties signed an agreement report stating that they had not come to an agreement. After the joint examination of the situation at administrative level and after the meeting, which also had an interlocutory result, on 27 August 2008, the lay-off programme was held to be satisfactorily concluded with the signing of a report on 1 September 2008. Upon completion of the procedure and considering the hiring of 533 former FIBE employees by the ad acta commissioners in August 2008, the number of redundant employees decreased from 555 to 21. On 2 September 2008, all the operating personnel that had not availed of the employment offers made by the different ad acta commissioners, except for the employees involved in the penal proceedings (ie, seven plant heads and two managers of the storage/unloading sites) were 70 let go. The latter employees were dismissed with effect from 17 September 2008. Following the resignations tendered by personnel still employed with effect from 30 September 2008, the company did not have any employees on its books at that date.

Head office employment figures - At 31 December 2008, head office employees numbered 311, as detailed below:

Managers Junior managers White collars Blue collars Total Impregilo S.p.A 73 64 160 3 300 S.G.F.-I.N.C. S.p.A. 317-11 Total at 31 December 2008 76 65 167 3 311

Management of operating personnel - Normal activities continued with the trade unions in terms of operating personnel management with respect to the ongoing laying-off of personnel taken on for contracts being finalised (CAVET, BOCOGE S.p.A. Costruzioni Generali, CAVTOMI and Consorzio Venice Link). Specifically: CAVET – On 11 October 2007, the second lay-off programme was commenced pursuant to articles 24 and 4 of Law no. 223/91, finalised on 3 December 2007 with the signing of the related agreement with the trade unions. At 31 December 2008, the company had let 336 employees go (35 white collars and 301 blue collars). On 11 November 2008, the third lay-off programme was commenced pursuant to articles 24 and 4 of Law no. 223/91, whereby 121 employees (41 white collars and 80 blue collars) were stated to be redundant. The programme was finalised on 27 November 2008 with the signing of the related agreement with the trade unions for the laying-off of the personnel from 16 January 2009. At 31 December 2008, the consortium had 178 employees, including 10 managers, 21 junior managers, 67 white collars and 80 blue collars.

Bocoge S.p.A. Construction Generali, Arcavacata di Rende (CS) building site - The company commenced a second procedure with a letter of 3 September 2007 involving 49 employees, including seven white collars and 42 blue collars. The related agreement was signed on 16 October 2007 and the company had let 45 employees go at 19 December 2008. Following the resignation of four employees, the company does not have any white collars or blue collars on its books at year end.

C.A.V.TO.MI . - On 7 January 2008, C.A.V.TO.MI commenced the second lay-off programme pursuant to articles 24 and 4 of Law no. 223/1991 whereby 485 workers hired to construct the railway line from 85.576 km to 124.673 km are redundant (including 104 white collars and junior managers and 381 blue collars). This programme is necessary as the works are nearing completion. The procedure was wound up on 4 February 2008 with the signing of an agreement in the offices of the Ministry for Labour.At 31 December 2008, 281 workers had left. At 31 December 2008, the consortium’s employees totalled 301 (10 managers, 152 blue collars and 139 white collars), considering the above 71 dismissals.

Consorzio Venice Link - The consortium commenced a lay-off programme with a letter dated 25 September 2008 using the “mobilità” scheme to lay off 46 employees (42 blue collars and four white collars). The programme was started given the near conclusion of the works entrusted to the consortium by the general contractor (Società di Progetto Passante di Mestre S.C.p.A.) as part of the “A4 motorway - Mestre link road - motorway connector” contract (“Mestre connector” contract). The procedure was wound up satisfactorily on 5 November 2008 with the signing of an agreement with the trade unions in which the parties also agreed that the number of redundant workers had been decreased to 44 (41 blue collars and three white collars) following the dismissals handed in during the period. Another employee left the company on 31 December 2008.

At 31 December 2008, group employees totalled 9,097, as detailed below:

Renewal of the building sector national labour contract of June 2008 - The remuneration and regulatory portions of the national labour contract for the building and related sectors was renewed on 18 June 2008, effective from 1 June 2008. The regulatory portion is effective through to 31 December 2011 while the remuneration portion expires on 31 December 2009. Changes include the increase in monthly 72 minimum pay slips and wages in two instalments applicable from 1 June 2008 and 1 January 2009. SAFETY,THE ENVIRONMENT AND QUALITY

Impregilo is the first Italian company and one of the few European companies of the construction sector to have voluntarily adopted a triple Quality, Environment and Safety management system certified under the relevant regulations, UNI EN ISO 9001, UNI EN ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. This gives it great standing with the major Italian and international customers. The main scope of the three management systems is the following: • To assist all entities to implement and apply efficient quality management systems, which demonstrate the entity’s ability to regularly provide products that meet customer, legal and internal requirements. Under article 8 of Law no. 109/1994 (Framework law on public works), all contractors entrusted with public works in Italy must have an ISO 9001 certified quality system. • To promote the ongoing and informed commitment of the group companies to complying with environmental legislation and their continued improvement of environmental performances. • To be aware of and monitor all aspects related to the health and safety of employees in the workplace, in order to prevent possible accidents and minimise them. Italian company organisational models that comply with UNI-INAIL or OHSAS 18001 guidelines are assumed to comply with the requirements 73 of article 30 of the new Consolidated act on employees’ health and safety in the workplace (Legislative decree no. 81/2008). All management systems require the active involvement of all parties engaged in production processes and the definition of responsibilities, available resources and controls necessary to ensure the correct and continuous application of the entity’s policies. Thanks to this system, Impregilo has attained the key objectives set out in its Quality, environment and safety policy again in 2008, namely: • ensuring quality work in line with customer expectations and requests; • operating in full compliance with the health and safety requirements for its employees and consultants; • reducing and minimising the impact on the environment during all stages of work; • developing an organisation based on ethical standards to be adopted for all transactions with its stakeholders (employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, partners, public administration and local communities); and guaranteeing again for 2008, maintenance of the triple certification obtained following the positive outcome of the annual audit performed by the accreditation agency SGS Italia S.p.A. of the environmental management system in the fourth week of April 2008 and of the quality and safety management systems in the third week of December 2008. The agency’s audit plan included the on-site visit to the Sesto San Giovanni registered office and selected contracts, namely the Salerno - Reggio Calabria Lot 5 project (for the environment management system) and the State road 36 and Consorzio Torre (for the quality and safety management systems). As per the management system requirements and the annual audit programme for 2008, prepared by the Quality, Environment and Safety Head, audits were performed at certain headquarters departments (Strategic planning, Bid management, Personnel recruitment, Procurement management, Equipment management) and some foreign contracts (San Juan de Los Morros, Chaguaramas, VIT Tocoma and La Encrucijada, all in Venezuela) and the Italian contracts Reggio Calabria - Scilla motorway, Mestre motorway connector, Consorzio Torre and Diga di Ravedis.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Environmental report Environmental variables assume increasing importance for industrial production in a rapidly changing social-economic context. Construction companies are also increasingly aware of the importance of the environment, the need to assess the effect of their construction on the environment and to set up a transparent dialogue with their stakeholders. As part of its vast empire and while it already complies with the legislative constraints of increasingly rigid and severe environmental laws, Impregilo has prepared Environmental reports since 2002 as a communication tool to show its commitment to minimising the effects of its work on the environment and its implementation of policies to safeguard its employees’ health and safety. It is one of the first companies in its sector and one of the few in Europe to do so. The Environmental report is addressed to all Impregilo’s institutional and non-institutional stakeholders that are involved in the group’s activities and to all those parties interested in obtaining detailed information about the complex construction-environment issue. The sixth edition of the report for 2007 was published in June 2008. It presents the environmental aspects tied to construction of large- scale infrastructure and to plant engineering, desalination and waste-to-energy projects. It also discusses the effects of certain contracts carried out on a concession basis on the environment. 74 The report begins with a brief presentation of the parent, Impregilo, and a description of the main contracts carried out in the past, followed by a presentation of the company’s vision and strategy for sustainable growth, which includes its environmental policy and commitment to the ongoing improvement of its environmental performance by adopting certified, internationally-recognised management systems. The next section deals with the company’s environmental responsibility split by business segment: Construction, Engineering & Plant Construction and Concessions. The actions undertaken by Impregilo to minimise the effects of its work on the environment and to make development compatible with protection of the territory. With respect to the Construction segment, the report lists the tools used to limit the effects of construction on the environment during the construction of a large-scale contract covering the atmosphere, surface and underground watercourse, the soil and subsoil, consumption of raw materials and energy, waste generation, noise and vibrations and the landscape. Impregilo’s responsibilities as general contractor are described, especially for environmental monitoring plans, drawn up to ensure full control over the environmental situation during construction work in order to identify any irregularities or critical issues and to promptly implement the necessary remedial actions, considering the above main environmental parameters, and the environmental protection plan, to complete and integrate the environmental monitoring, used to identify the main effects of the work on the surrounding environment and to coordinate all the related prevention actions, considering the many environmental obligations. With respect to the Engineering & Plant Construction segment, the activities undertaken to design sea water desalination plants, to treat discharge water, fume treatment, waste-to-energy treatment are described together with those related to services, such as the collection and storage of urban solid waste, hospital and industrial waste, remediation of contaminated areas, prevention, control and containment of 75 marine pollution and costal protection. With respect to the Concessions segment, the report describes the projects to protect the environment rolled out by the group companies (mostly foreign) and concession holders related mainly to motorway networks, energy generation plants and water treatment plants, such as, for example: • the use of “ecological asphalt” or “rubber asphalt”, containing old tyres, which allows the recycling of used tyres, which would otherwise cause significant environmental damage; • activation of an emergency service for animals accidentally hit by vehicles, which are transported to a specialised centre and healed before being returned to the wild. The report also has a section on Impregilo’s social responsibility, social justice and development of relationships with its contractors, sub- contractors, suppliers and, especially, trade union representatives and all its employees, ensuring its effective application.

Our environmental responsibility The focus on the environmental effects of its work, prevention of pollution and the safety and health of its works are one of the key issues dear to Impregilo. Construction of a large-scale engineering contract inevitably leads to the alteration of the natural or anthropic environment in which it is located. It is thus of paramount importance to implement compatible and sustainable development whereby the large-scale infrastructure are integrated into the surrounding area, sometimes becoming the elements which shape it. Even when it is not the general contractor, Impregilo monitors the fall out of the work performed on the local social-environmental context, it adopts special measures to limit its effects on the environment and acts in such a way as to integrate the work with the natural or urban environment, as far as possible.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

In each Italian and foreign contract, Impregilo assesses and constantly monitors the key environmental parameters: • Atmosphere; • Surface and underground water courses; • Soil and subsoil; • Consumption of raw materials and energy; • Waste generation; • Noise and vibrations; • Landscape, which could be affected by its work. Impregilo identifies and implements specific environmental precautions for each of the above parameters to prevent or minimise the effects.

76 Atmosphere The most significant direct effects of the construction of infrastructure on the atmosphere are clearly linked to dust dispersion caused by the different procedures - excavation, earthwork, movement of heavy vehicles on dirt tracks, crushing plants and the demolition of existing structures. Other effects on the atmosphere may be generated by site vehicles and the self-production of electricity. Impregilo has a number of measures to reduce, as far as possible, dust generation and dispersion. For example, dirt tracks are constantly dampened during dry spells; industrial sites and quarries are equipped with tyre washing systems to prevent trucks from spreading dirt on roads, which would cause dust dispersion. Low-impact vehicles are used to minimize air pollution and regular maintenance is performed on vehicles.

Surface and underground watercourses The construction of infrastructure often has considerable effects on the surface and underground watercourses. When the contract affects water routes, a number of procedures are introduced to minimise the effects which may have a direct impact on the habitat of aquatic organisms and on water quality. Water from the work areas and industrial sites, which include workshops, concrete mixing plants, crushing plants, etc. is collected in a specific network and treated in depurification systems in order to clean the water before it is discharged into streams or rivers. The chemical- physical quality of the water is checked regularly to ensure compliance with the legal limits. Another risk for water is its possible pollution due to petrochemical products used by the work equipment or chemical products used. In this case, Impregilo ensures that contamination does not happen by implementing rigid procedures for the regular maintenance of all the equipment. Soil and subsoil Earthwork is certainly one of most obvious and typical activities of construction of any work: construction of embankments, cuttings or certain types of dams require the movement of large earth quantities. In order to prevent and minimise the use of and damage to the soil, earth is only removed from the areas effectively affected by the construction and is kept at the building site for its reutilisation for other works or to restore sites such as disused quarries or for public works such as parks and car parks. All excavation work is carried out with adequate embankments, ensuring their stabilisation and drainage. Another risk for the soil is the dispersion of chemical or petrochemical products, generated by the damage to containers and/or joints (taps, caps, etc) in the storage area, during the refuelling of vehicles or damage to vehicle tanks, the breaking of flanges and joints, the breaking of hydraulic pistons during work. In order to prevent this type of pollution, specific emergency procedures exist, such as, for example the storage of these products on impermeable surfaces, the use of absorbent materials to contain liquid spillages, the immediate removal and transportation of contaminated earth for restoration or to the landfill.

Consumption of raw materials and energy 77 Motorways, bridges and dams all require large amounts of concrete, water, iron or earth: all non-renewable raw materials. Impregilo pays considerable attention to the rationed use of these raw materials, without however compromising the quality of the finished product and its safety. Construction of a new work also entails use of energy, either in the form of fossil fuels or electricity. Energy consumption has indirect effects on the atmosphere: diesel engines produce polluting emissions while electrical power plants contribute to an increase in the greenhouse effect. Energy consumption may be reduced by using more efficient equipment or low-consumption vehicles.

Waste generation Waste generated during construction of large-scale infrastructure and engineering works can be split into two separate categories: urban waste, from logistics sites where all the support activities for the industrial production are carried out such as offices, accommodation for non-resident workers, canteens, laboratories, first aid unit and recreational facilities for the workers; and special waste deriving from the actual industrial activities. Impregilo complies with the separate waste collection requirements for its urban waste, storing it temporarily in different containers (eg, paper, plastic, glass, other) and subsequently disposing of it using authorised waste collectors. It has special containers for the temporary storage of special waste. This is disposed of at least bi-monthly, or at least annually for amounts of less than 10 mc/year, using authorised waste collectors, managed by company employee who fills out an IDENTIFICATION FORM for the transportation of this special waste as well as keeping an entry/exit ledger.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Noise and vibrations Noise created by special procedures (excavation, assembly, finishing works, concrete mixing plants) and the movement of operating equipment is one of the biggest factors that affects the area in which the work is taking place. In order to reduce this polluting factor, Impregilo uses machines with low noise emissions, equipped with silencers, especially when they are used near apartment buildings or production activities, in accordance with the local emission regulations. Work hours are shortened for critical situations to avoid disturbing the local community. Areas subject to the greatest noise impact are protected with noise barriers, that can be constructed or by artificial dunes made of backfill or by support structures and absorption panels, made of different types of materials. Alternatively and where possible, noise barriers may be created with one or more rows of trees or shrubs which both absorb the noise and improve the visual impact. Vibrations that propagate through the soil are another characteristic of civil engineering sites. These vibrations can damage buildings or other structures in the surrounding areas. In this case, specific work methods have to be used, with their regular and ongoing monitoring.

Landscape 78 Any infrastructure during its construction stage has some impact on the landscape, temporary altering its orography. Upon finalisation of its contracts, Impregilo restores the surrounding areas to their original conditions by shaping work, creation of agricultural land, sewing or planting. During this phase, it ensures that the surrounding areas are fully restored. All those substances or materials that could hinder plant growth are removed. In the case of contamination, the soil is reclaimed or treated or removed and subsequently restored. Our social responsibility Impregilo is fully aware that its human resources are an indispensible factor for its existence, development and success. The company is committed to developing their skills and to fostering the management team’s abilities and potential, encouraging relationships based on mutual trust so that they can meet their growth and improvement objectives.

Company management has introduced an effective internal/external communication process aimed at promoting the exchange of information about fundamentally important issues for the company’s development, such as, for example, the integrated Quality-Environment-Safety system, by:

• the internet site and, especially, the internal portal (“the Bridge”) which has information about the system (manual, procedures, instructions, etc.) and also the laws, decrees and regulations useful for performing contracts;

• institutional (financial statements, organisational instructions, operating circulars, press releases, periodic meetings) and informal (notice boards, e-mails) tools;

• periodic meetings, meetings with personnel and the ongoing dialogue with the company’s stakeholders (the market, customers, 79 supervisory bodies, contractors, suppliers, etc.);

• the Environmental report.

Since 2005, Impregilo has started a training programme to strengthen and develop internal skills in order to ensure the ongoing search for excellence in carrying out one’s duties, in performances and results. The training courses are provided to all employees with the objective of developing their technical-specialist expertise pertinent to their professional area and to build up managerial skills for each level of responsibility.

In 2008, the parent held courses for all its personnel, including those of the contractors, depending on the requirements, on health and safety issues. The general courses covered building site risks or the use of personal protective equipment while the specialised courses covered specific machinery or processing. Specifically, courses were held with the consignment of illustrative material and the release of individual certificates on:

• current safety at work and accident prevention legislation;

• fire-fighting procedures;

• first aid;

• manual load handling;

• the use of personal protective equipment.

Impregilo has been committed for many years to minimising the potential causes of accidents at work through structured, plant and organisational measures, pursuing increasingly balanced person-machine-environment interaction. Building site management analyses the technical and human reasons for accidents, assisted by the relevant doctor and the Quality, environmental and safety manager. They adopt and implement measures to prevent and protect workers and to avoid repetition of the event. The results of their findings are reported to the company’s corporate management once a year.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Directors’ report - Part II

Accidents at work are analysed using statistics based on the best practice indexes as well as certain useful accident indicators, such as: • nature of the injury (eg, wound, punctures, bruising, fracture, etc.); • part of the body injured (eg, head, trunk, pelvis, eyes, etc.); • form (active, passive, environment, fall, accident); • agent (eg, machine, lifting and transportation systems, distribution systems, equipment and devices, etc.); • month in which the accident took place. Thanks to this approach and the introduction of new technologies, 2008 saw a further decrease in the probability of accidents happening at work (through its prevention measures) and the seriousness of such accidents (through its protection measures). The centralised database of most common accidents at work (frequency index = no. of accidents/no. of hours worked x 1,000,000 and seriousness index = no. of days off work/no. of hours of attendance x 1,000) showed that such indexes at 18.53 and 0.69 improved significantly on the previous year (44.39 and 1.08, respectively) and were also better than the national average. The New Consolidated act for health and safety in the workplace was enacted on 15 May 2008, introducing significant amendments to the 80 issues of health and safety in the workplace, such as the concept of manslaughter or grievous bodily harm and the administrative liability of companies pursuant to Legislative decree no. 231/01. The company has based itself on the OHSAS 18001 safety management system and has certified it.

PRIVACY AND DATA PROTECTION The group continued its actions in 2008 to ensure compliance with the current legislative requirements about the protection of personal data (Legislative decree no. 196/03, the Privacy Code). SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Reference should be made to the section on “Non-current assets classified as held for sale and discontinued operations - USW Campania projects” for details on the events that have taken place since 31 December 2008 with respect to the USW Campania projects. In January 2009, Impregilo won the tender for the construction of a tunnel in Roveredo, in the Grigioni canton in Swizerland through its Swiss subsidiary CSC Impresa Costruzioni S.A.. The contract assigned by the Swiss Federal Roads Office (USTRA) is worth approximately Sfr 120 million (approximately euro 80 million at current exchange rates). CSC is the leader of the consortium with the Swiss companies Frutiger AG and PraderLosinger AG. Work on the 2.4-km San Fedele tunnel is the main part of the Roveredo ring road and entails the rerouting of the N13 national road which goes through the city centre to an underground route. On 4 February 2009, as part of the tests of the working of the high speed/capacity Bologna-Florence line, the international speed record for vehicles in tunnels was made by the Frecciarossa train belonging to Trenitalia S.p.A.. This was an Italian record as well. The Mestre motorway connector road was officially opened on 8 February 2009 in the presence of the heads of the state and the Veneto regional authorities, significantly earlier than scheduled and fully complying with the cost budget.

The following procedures were commenced with respect to the personnel involved in certain contracts after year end: 81 • On 22 January 2009, C.A.V.To.Mi commenced a lay-off programme pursuant to articles 24 and 4 of Legislative decree no. 223/1991 whereby 290 workers hired to construct the railway line from km 85.576 to km 124.673 are redundant (including 138 white collars and junior managers and 152 blue collars). This programme is necessary as the works are nearing completion. The procedure was wound up satisfactorily on 12 February 2009 with the signing of an agreement with the trade unions in which the parties also agreed that the number of redundant workers had been decreased to 287 (151 blue collars and 136 white collars) following the dismissals handed in during the period. • As part of a far-reaching organisational and production overhaul of the individual companies set up to carry out the upgrading of the Salerno Reggio Calabria motorway, with a letter dated 14 January 2009, the Scilla consortium commenced a lay-off programme due to the ceasing of business activities for 625 workers (159 white collars and junior managers and 466 blue collars) at the maxi lot V and VI building sites. Following the request of 20 January 2009 received from the trade unions of Reggio Calabria, a preliminary meeting was held at the offices of the Reggio Calabria trade association on 29 January 2009. The parties agreed to defer their joint review of the situation to 16 February 2009 when the national and regional secretaries would be present. Moreover, the group restructured certain operating companies due to the worsening of the generalised crisis that has hit both the Italian and international markets. The main group companies involved are: • With its letter of 12 January 2009, SGF Inc S.p.A. commenced a trade union negotiation procedure following the request to integrate salaries on an exceptional basis. The reasons why the company has resorted to this type of welfare support provision is due to its (structural) crisis, which has been going on for more than two years and is due to the finalising of its main contracts and non-acquisition of new ones. Following the communication to the parties from the Ministry for Labour for the completion of the legally-required trade union negotiations, an agreement was signed by the company and the trade unions on 28 January 2009 whereby the company may lay off a maximum of 73 workers from 9 February 2009 on a temporary basis.

• To resolve its serious financial and economic difficulties, which have been going on for nearly two years, FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. has decided to discontinue and dismantle, where possible, all the activities performed by its Environment division and to restructure its Desalination division and Staff structure. Accordingly, with a letter dated 2 February 2009, it commenced a lay-off programme for 136 employees (108 white collars and junior managers and 28 blue collars), located at the different production sites in Italy. On 11 February 2009, following the trade unions’ request, a joint appraisal of the reasons which led to the excess employees took place. This meeting had an interlocutary result and the parties have agreed to update their appraisal on 19 March 2009 after subsequent meetings. Following the proceedings initiated by the Public Prosecutor before the Court of Monza for crimes covered by articles 81 and 110 of the Penal Code and articles 2621 and 2637 of the Italian Civil Code, in which the former chairman of the board of directors and the former CEO of Impregilo at the time of the alleged crimes are under investigation, Impregilo S.p.A. and Imprepar in liquidation were subjected to a preliminary investigation relating to an alleged administrative violation in relation to the crimes covered by articles 25/ter, letters a) and r), points 5 and 44 of Legislative decree no 231/2001. On 13 February 2009, the Judge for the Preliminary Investigation of Milan partly accepted the request for the filing of all the charges made by the Milan Public Prosecutor. The Judge ordered the deferral of the acts to the Public Prosecutor for the preparation of charges for the part of the appeal which was not allowed.

82 As described in previous reports and earlier in this document, as part of a number of disputes that the Tuscan judicial authorities had raised against C.A.V.E.T. and certain directors and managers of the consortium in connection with the Bologna-Florence high speed/capacity railway works, penal proceedings nos. 10221/99 and 4923/00 RGNR were commenced in previous years followed by other proceedings. The main charges raised against the consortium included, inter alia: - water theft from the water bed during excavation of the tunnels and subsequent use of such water during construction; - impoverishing and damaging of surface and underground water sources; - illegal traffic of toxic waste during the elimination of soil, rocks and mud which the consortium had treated as if such materials were not “waste”. Following the final hearing for the first level proceeding on 3 March 2009, the Court of Florence cleared the defendants from all claims about the damaging and impoverishing of the water bed, deferred the acts to the Constitutional Court for the “water theft” and found the defendants guilty of the waste management issue. The Court deferred quantification of the compensation to be paid to the civil parties to a separate civil judge and ordered the payment of a “provisional” sum to the Ministry for the Environment, the Tuscan Regional Authorities and the Florence Municipal Authorities of euro 50 million each, plus other amounts to the other civil parties for a total approximate euro 0.2 million. As part of this ruling, additional interdictive sanctions were approved for the individuals involved. These will only be effective if, after finalisation of the other stages of the proceedings, the final ruling is not changed. Application of the Court’s rulings about the “provisional” sums is subject to the lodging of the grounds for the ruling, to take place before 90 days from the date of publication of the ruling, as provided for by the Court. This time limit is the same as that for presentation of an appeal by the consortium, which will include appeals for the suspension of the “provisional” sums. These sums do not represent a calculation of the damage either in terms of an estimate or accurate calculation thereof, but are to protect the civil parties which cannot however consider them as definitively obtained unless a final penal ruling is issued after which an independent civil hearing would have to take place to quantify the damage. At the date of preparation of this report, it is not possible to determine either the amount of the alleged damage to third parties or when any damages will be paid as the ruling would only be valid after hearings at all three levels have been held. The consortium’s lawyers agree with it that its correct conduct can be clearly demonstrated in the appeal hearing. They are confident that the sentence will be substantially changed, including with respect to the negative charges made by the first level hearing. OUTLOOK The group’s order backlog, results for the year and its strong international presence all represent a solid base to build on to strengthen its business activities, despite the domestic and international financial and economic situation which does not show signs of changing. The group believes that it will continue to have a positive operating profitability ratio (R.o.S.) for 2009, better than that of 2008, notwithstanding the slight downturn in production volumes. The group has a solid, balanced financial position despite the generalised credit crunch and the significant reduction in liquidity in circulation, which is an issue currently being addressed by the European and international monetary authorities in order to limit the potential deflationary effects that are a direct result thereof. The group’s financial stability is a strong competitive advantage and represents the foundation upon which its strategies can be built. The complex legal and operating situation in which the group finds itself due to the USW Campania projects and the high speed/capacity contracts will continue to be critical. The group cannot exclude that events may take place in the future that are not currently foreseeable which would require changes to be made to the valuations formulated to date. At present and excluding any events or circumstances that cannot currently be foreseen, the group does not expect to encounter difficulties in achieving positive results for 2009 for both the group and the parent. 83

OTHER INFORMATION

Treasury shares At the date this report was prepared, the parent did not hold any treasury shares either directly or indirectly.

Company bodies In their meeting of 7 May 2008, the shareholders appointed new boards of directors and statutory auditors for the parent. They have a term of office of three years, ie until approval of the financial statements at 31 December 2010. The members of the new boards are presented in the section entitled “Company officers”.

Judicial investigations - Court of Monza Following the proceedings initiated by the Public Prosecutor before the Court of Monza for crimes covered by articles 81 and 110 of the Penal Code and articles 2621 and 2637 of the Italian Civil Code, in which the former chairman of the board of directors and the former CEO of Impregilo at the time of the alleged crimes are under investigation, Impregilo S.p.A. and Imprepar in liquidation were subjected to a preliminary investigation relating to an alleged administrative violation in relation to the crimes pursuant to points 5 and 44, letters a) and r), articles 25- 84 ter of Legislative decree no. 231/2001. The Public Prosecutor notified the company of the allegations against its former chairman and former CEO on 13 October 2005. The allegation is that the company “prepared and implemented an organisation model not suitable to prevent the crimes” that the directors under investigation allegedly committed and from which it benefited. On 6 December 2005, Impregilo received notice that the preliminary investigations were completed, in accordance with article 415-bis of the Criminal Procedural Code. Subsequently, it was notified in a registered letter of 21 February 2006 that a preliminary hearing had been set in accordance with article 419 of the Criminal Procedural Code for 3 April 2006. Impregilo disputed the above allegations, lodging an in-depth brief with the court through its lawyer.The brief was prepared with the assistance of technical experts. On 24 April 2006, the Judge for the Preliminary Investigation of the Court of Monza issued a judgement stating that the court did not have territorial jurisdiction for the case and requested that the acts be sent to the Public Prosecutor with the Court of Milan. The Public Prosecutor with the Court of Monza appealed against this judgement with the Supreme Court: the related hearing was fixed for 23 April 2007 when the Supreme Court rejected the appeal made by the Monza Public Prosecutor and confirmed the Milan court’s jurisdiction to hear the case. In July 2006, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing at the Court of Milan communicated the date for the new preliminary hearing which was held on 20 October 2006. During the hearing of 12 January 2007, the Judge denied the jurisdictional pleas. On 21 February 2007, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing of Milan ruled during the related hearing that the former chairman of the board of directors and former CEO of Impregilo should be committed for trial for all the alleged crimes charged to them and also Impregilo S.p.A. and Imprepar in liquidation pursuant to Legislative decree no. 231/01. The Court of Milan ruled on a preliminary basis in the hearing of 12 July 2007 “the invalidity of the ruling issued by the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing at the Court of Milan on 21 February 2007 in the hearing pursuant to article 416 of the Criminal Procedural Code”, accepting the related objections that the defence counsel of the defendants and companies involved in the case had raised since the preliminary hearing. Thus, the Court ordered that the acts were to be returned to the Milan Public Prosecutor’s office. The Milan Public Prosecutor re-opened the proceeding and presented the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing with a request for its filing in November. On 13 February 2009, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing accepted the Public Prosecutor’s request for a part of the charges and ordered the filing, while it deferred the acts to the Public Prosecutor for the preparation of the charges for the part of the request which was not accepted.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

1. ISSUER PROFILE The corporate governance structure adopted by Impregilo S.p.A. (the “Issuer” or the “company”) is based on the guidelines set out in the Code of Conduct adopted by the Committee for Corporate Governance of Listed Companies (the “Code”) as it holds that adoption of a struc- tured governance system allows the company to operate at maximum efficiency conditions and also ensures growing levels of transparency which increases investors’ confidence in it. Impregilo is currently the leading general contractor in Italy and one of the most important general construction groups internationally.Thanks to its business and organisational skills, technical and financial expertise, risk management abilities, time and cost optimisation capacity, the group has an unrivalled wealth of expertise and skills which enables it to play a leadership role in the civil engineering large-scale works mar- ket and large-scale infrastructure and plant construction business. This report’s scope is to illustrate the parent’s corporate governance model and provide a brief description of how it has been implemented. It is based on the specially designed experimental model prepared by Borsa Italiana S.p.A..

2. INFORMATION ON THE SHAREHOLDING STRUCTURE 88 (pursuant to article 123-bis of the Consolidated Finance Act) at 25 March 2009

a) Share capital structure Subscribed and paid-up share capital in Euros: 718,364,456.72 Share categories: ordinary and savings. In their extraordinary meeting of 12 October 2004, the shareholders eliminated the nominal value of both classes of shares.

No. of shares % of share capital Stock exchange Ordinary shares 402,457,937 99.60 MTA Savings shares 1,615,491 0.40 MTA

To date, Impregilo S.p.A. has not issued other financial instruments that give the right to subscribe newly issued shares. On 7 July 2005, the company’s board of directors (the “board”) approved a stock option plan. This plan has its basis in the company’s in- tention to create a tool to motivate and encourage the loyalty of its top management and other managers and those of its subsidiaries. It was approved by the shareholders in their extraordinary meeting of 26 September 2005. The plan is still in place due to the following resolution taken by the shareholders whereby: - the board of directors are given the possibility, under paragraphs 1 and 2, article 2443 of the Italian Civil Code, to increase the share capital against consideration, in one or more instalments, within 36 months from the date of publication of the 2006 half year report, by a maximum of euro 501,180.36 by issuing ordinary shares up to a maximum of 1% of the outstanding shares, with regular dividend rights, to be offered for subscription, excluding the options for the shareholders, pursuant to the last paragraph, article 2441 of the Italian Civil Code and paragraph 2, article 134 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998 to the employees of the company and its subsidiaries under point 1, paragraph 1, article 2359 of the Italian Civil Code. These employees are the beneficiaries of the plan and are identified by the board of directors on the basis of objective assessments and in the interests of the company. The board of directors has the widest powers to determine the number of options to be assigned and the related timing, the procedure for assigning and exercising the options, setting the issue price and maximum number of new shares to be allocated to the beneficiaries, to the extent of its proxies and in accordance with the law. The shares will be offered for subscription at a unit price equal to the market price (as defined by tax legislation) on the dates of the related resolutions of the board of directors about the share capital increases. To date, the board of directors has not executed the mandate to increase share capital. The stock option plan included a part reserved for the then CEO of Impregilo S.p.A., Alberto Lina, for a maximum euro 7,089,960.72, by is- suing a maximum of 3,983,124 ordinary shares, with regular dividend rights, for a total unit price of euro 3.023, including euro 1.243 as a premium. During 2008, Mr. Lina exercised his options subscribing 983,124 ordinary shares. b) Share transfer restrictions Impregilo S.p.A. does not have any restrictions on share transfers.

g) Shareholder agreements The Issuer is aware of the following shareholder agreements, considered to be material under article 122 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998: - shareholder agreement between TeSir S.r.l. on the one side and Argo Finanziaria S.p.A., Autostrade per l’Italia S.p.A. and Immobiliare Lombarda S.p.A. on the other related to Igli S.p.A. and Impregilo S.p.A.; - shareholder agreement between Argo Finanziaria S.p.A., Autostrade per l’Italia S.p.A. and Immobiliare Lombarda S.p.A. related to Igli S.p.A. and Impregilo S.p.A.. Abstracts of the above agreements, made public as required by article 122 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998 and article 129 of Consob resolution no. 11971/99, as subsequently amended, are given in an annex to this report.

h) Appointment and replacement of directors and changes to the by-laws Article 20) of the Issuer’s by-laws states that “the company is run by a board consisting of fifteen members. Those candidates that meet the requirements set by the legislation and regulations in force at the time of their appointment may accept such 90 appointment. Directors are elected using lists presented by the shareholders (using the methods described below) in which the candidates are set out in consecutive order. In order to be valid, each list includes at least two candidates that meet the independence requirements established by law. They are shown separately and one of the two heads the list. The lists are deposited at the Issuer’s registered office at least fifteen days before the date of the shareholders’ meeting, as detailed in the notice calling the meeting. Shareholders, shareholders forming part of significant shareholder agreements as per article 122 of Legislative decree no 58/1998, the pa- rent, subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities as per article 93 of Legislative decree no. 58/1998 may not present, or be involved in pre- senting (also via trustees or nominees), more than one list. Nor can they vote (also via trustees or nominees) for more than one list. Moreover, each candidate may only be present in one list in order to be eligible. Inclusion in more than one list or votes for more than one list is/are not counted. Only those shareholders that, either individually or together with other shareholders, own shares making up at least 2% of the share capital with voting rights at ordinary meetings (or a smaller percentage set by mandatory legislative or regulatory instructions), may present lists. Together with each list and within the timeframe described earlier, the shareholders deposit: (i) the relevant certificate issued by a legally- authorised broker showing ownership to the number of shares necessary to present lists; (ii) statements whereby each candidate accepts their candidature and states, under their own responsibility, the inexistence of any reasons for ineligibility or incompatibility and the existence of the requirements for the relevant offices; (iii) a professional and personal profile of each candidate and mention of whether they qualify as independent and any offices held as director or statutory auditor in other companies; and (iv) any other information that is requested in the notice calling the shareholders’ meeting and required by the applicable law or regulations. Lists which are presented that do not meet the above requirements are considered not to have been presented. The following procedure is carried out to elect the directors: a) when there is at least one list that has received votes making up at least 29% of the share capital with voting rights at ordinary shareholders’ meetings, the 14 directors to be appointed are taken from the list which got the most votes in the order in which they are set out in the list while the other director is taken from the list presented by minority shareholders that got the most votes and is not linked in any way (directly or indirectly) to the shareholders that presented or voted for the list that got the most votes. Should the first two lists have received the same number of votes, seven directors are taken from each one in the order in which they are set out therein while one director is taken from the list that came third in terms of the votes received and is not linked in any way (directly or indirectly) to the shareholders that presented or voted for the lists that got the most votes. If only two lists are presented, the fifteenth director is the oldest candidate from those not taken from the first two lists; b) if none of the lists gets votes equal to at least 29% of the share capital with voting rights at ordinary shareholders’ meetings, the 15 directors are taken from all the lists presented as follows: the votes obtained by the lists are divided by entire numbers from one to 15. The resulting scores are assigned to the candidates of each list in consecutive order using the order in which they are included in the lists. The candidates are then included in a single decreasing order list, based on the scores given to each one. Those with the highest 91 score are elected. If more than one candidate has the same score, the one from the list that has not had any director elected from it or has had the smallest number of directors elected is taken. Lists that do not obtain a vote percentage equal to at least half that set by the by-laws for the presentation of lists are not considered. Should no lists be presented or those presented not be accepted for voting purposes, the shareholders use the majority vote system, without considering the above procedure, while ensuring the necessary number of directors with the independence requirements set by law. The list voting procedure is only used when an entire board is being appointed. Should one or more directors leave their position during the year, in order to ensure that the majority of the board is always made up of di- rectors appointed by the shareholders, the board of directors replaces them pursuant to article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code, appointing can- didates from the list to which the former director belonged, in consecutive order, and whom are still eligible and willing to accept the position. Directors who have left office are always replaced considering the minimum number of directors with the independence characteristics re- quired by law. If there is no longer a majority, the remaining directors also fall from office with effect from when the board is re-elected by the shareholders”. i) Mandates to increase share capital and to repurchase treasury shares As noted in letter a, paragraph 2, the board of directors is authorised to increase the share capital for the purposes of the stock option plan described in that paragraph. The shareholders have not authorised the repurchase of treasury shares. l) Change of control clause The Issuer is not controlled by another entity.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

m) Compensation for directors in the case of their resignation, dismissal, retirement or termination of the relationship following a public purchase offer The Issuer does not have agreements with its directors for their compensation in the case of their resignation, dismissal, retirement, remo- val from office without just cause or termination of the relationship following a public purchase offer.

3. COMPLIANCE - Impregilo S.p.A. has complied with the requirements of the original version of the Code of Conduct issued by the Committee for Corporate Governance of Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and the subsequent version published in July 2002. Following publication of the new Code of Conduct in March 2006 by the above Committee, the Issuer’s board of directors’ meeting of 20 December 2006 resolved to request the internal control committee to perform an in-depth comparative analysis of the company’s corporate governance structure compared to the Code requirements and to provide the board with its assessments, opinions and proposals about alignment with the Code and necessary actions. Based on such analysis and proposals, the board meeting of 12 March 2007 resolved to comply with the Code of Conduct drawn up by 92 the Committee for corporate governance of Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (March 2006 version) with the exceptions set out below. Specifically, in order to align its corporate governance structure with the standards and criteria of the Code, the Board of Director resolved: • with respect to letter b) of criterion 1.C.1, to classify Fisia Italimpianti S.p.A., Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. and Primav Ecorodovias S.A. as “strategic subsidiaries”; to assess the organisational, administrative and general ledger structure of the Issuer and strategic subsidiaries Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. and Primav Ecorodovias S.A., setting measures to be adopted for Fisia Italimpianti S.p.A.’s organisational structure; • with respect to letter f) of criterion 1.C.1., to adopt the rules described in paragraph 5.2 of this report; • with respect to letter g) of criterion 1.C.1., to perform once a year, during the meeting held to approve the financial statements, an assessment of the size, composition and working of the board of directors itself and its committees; • with respect to criterion 1.C.3., to adopt the rules described in paragraph 5.1 of this report; • with respect to criterion 2.C.1., to confirm the previous assessment stated in the board meeting of 7 July 2005 and, therefore, consider the directors members of the executive committee as non-executive, given that current participation in this committee, considering the frequency of the meetings and subject of the related resolutions, does not entail the systematic involvement of its members in the day-to-day management of the company nor does it lead to a significant increase in their remuneration compared to that received by the other non-executive directors; and, therefore, only the CEO qualifies as an executive director; • with respect to criterion 2.C.2., as proposed by the chairman, that the relevant internal functions provide all the directors and statutory auditors with access to the company’s intranet site to allow their direct access to the documentation and information posted thereon; and to organise their involvement in the training course on the Organisation, management and control model; • with respect to criterion 3.C.4., to generally comply with the requirements set by the Code about directors’ independence and that any non-compliance therewith should be justified; • with respect to criterion 3.C.5., that the outcome of the controls performed to check the correct application of the criteria and procedures put in place by the board to assess the independence of its members be communicated by the board of statutory auditors to the market in its report to the shareholders. The board of statutory auditors stated that it approves of this resolution during the board meeting; • with respect to criterion 3.C.6., that the independent directors meet annually, before the board meeting held to approve the financial statements, for self-assessment purposes, including examination of any remedial action to be taken, to assess the role played by independent directors within the board; they will report to the board on their findings; • with respect to criterion 4.C.1., to approve a specific “Procedure for the internal management and external communication of documents and information” to replace the “Internal regulations for disclosing “price sensitive” documents and information to the market”, approved by the board of directors on 27 March 2001, as described in paragraph 6 of this report; • with respect to letter c) of criterion 5.C.1. , to make available to the internal control and remuneration committees an annual budget of euro 25,000 per committee to be used for any necessary consultancy or other services to carry out their duties. The prior authorisation of outlays is not necessary although the committees are required to document their expenses.

Should a director be offered new positions that would lead to their exceeding the above ceilings, they shall inform the board promptly of this so that the board can grant waivers (also temporary) to the maximum number of positions set in this rule. The waiver shall be adequately documented. It shall be described in the company’s corporate governance report together with the reasons therefor.”

The current composition of the board complies with the above general criteria.

5.2. ROLE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Pursuant to article 24 of the by-laws (available on the internet site www.impregilo.it, in the Investor Relations - Corporate Governance - Corporate documents section), the board of directors has the widest powers for the company’s ordinary and extraordinary management with no exceptions. It has the power to perform all those actions that it deems suitable to carry out the company’s activities as per its business object or related activities, except for those actions reserved exclusively for the shareholders by law. The board of directors may resolve to set up or close branches in Italy or abroad, to decrease share capital if a shareholder withdraws the- refrom, to adjust the by-laws to reflect mandatory regulatory requirements, to transfer the legal offices within Italy and to merge other wholly 98 controlled companies or companies, of which at least 90% control is held, into the parent. All of these transactions are to be carried out in accordance with articles 2505 and 2505-bis of the Italian Civil Code. By law, the directors may not remain in office for more than three years and their term of office expires at the date of the shareholders’ mee- ting held to approve the financial statements of the last year of their term. As not provided for otherwise in the by-laws, the directors may be re-elected. Pursuant to article 21 of the by-laws, the board of directors elects a chairman from among its members and (possibly) one or two deputy chairmen who substitute the chairman in his/her absence. Article 20 of the by-laws provides that the board of directors has 15 members.

During the year, nine board meetings were held, with an average duration of roughly an hour and 10 minutes. The 2009 financial calendar (available on the internet site www.impregilo.it, in the Investor Relations - Corporate Governance - Corporate documents section) shows that five meetings are scheduled to take place during the year, the first of which was held on 26 February 2009.

***

The structure had been previously examined by the internal control committee which met on the same date. The board set certain measures to be adopted by FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. for its organisational structure. In its today’s meeting, the board confirmed the adequacy for the Issuer, Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. and Primav Ecorodovias S.A. after the internal control committee had done so. The board also took note of the action plan communicated by Fisia Italimpianti to its Supervisory Body, aimed at resolving the differences compared to the Organisation, management and control model, and found such plan to be adequate. - The shareholders approved a gross annual fee for each director of euro 20,000 in their meeting of 7 May 2008 and an attendance fee of euro 1,000 per meeting, decreased to euro 500 for attendance via audio or video link-up. They also approved the gross annual fee

The board did not bring any issues thereon to the shareholders during the year.

100 5.3. EMPOWERED BODIES Chief executive officers The board of directors may delegate part of its powers to one or more directors, setting limits and proxy operating methods. It may appoint directors and agents, who do not necessarily have to be board members, and establishes their powers (article 25 of the by-laws). On 7 May 2008, the board of directors appointed Alberto Rubegni as CEO. It gave him the legal power to represent the company and signatory powers with third parties and in court. He also has powers to manage the company and may delegate responsibility for the organisation and running of certain business activities. Further to the powers reserved by law to the board of directors, it also has exclusive authority for any decisions related to: a) exercise of voting rights: (i) at extraordinary meetings of the shareholders of the strategic subsidiaries (which the board has identified as FISIA Italiampianti S.p.A., Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. and Primav Ecorodovias S.A.); and (ii) at ordinary meetings of the shareholders of the strategic subsidiaries called to appoint their directors; b) identification of Impregilo’s strategic subsidiaries; c) approval of the business plan, budget and industrial plan; d) the performance of all transactions with related parties - other than “Immaterial transactions with related parties” as per the “Guidelines for transactions with related parties” currently in force and as possibly amended; e) the purchase and sale of investments in companies, consortia or other entities, as well as in businesses or business units.

Chairman On 7 May 2008, the board of directors gave the chairman the power to execute resolutions passed by it in addition to the legal representation of the company and signatory powers with third parties and in court as per article 28 of the by-laws. These powers are also held separately by the deputy chairman, to be exercised in the chairman’s absence. The chairman does not have special strategic decision-making powers. The chairman of the board of directors is not the CEO nor is he the majority shareholder of the Issuer. Executive committee Pursuant to article 25 of the by-laws, the board of directors may delegate all or part of its powers (not reserved to it by law) to an executive committee consisting of a number of members to be less than half that of the board, including the CEO, who acts as chairman of the executive committee. The board of directors set up an executive committee, in accordance with article 25 of the by-laws, which currently has six members. Meetings are called when necessary and a calendar does not exist. During the year, the committee met six times with meetings averaging roughly an hour and seventeen minutes. Two meetings have been held in 2009. *** The board of directors delegated all the ordinary and extraordinary administrative powers reserved to it to the executive committee, except for those powers reserved exclusively to it by law and those related to the performance of the following actions and transactions, reserved to the board: i. exercise of voting rights: (a) at extraordinary meetings of the shareholders of the strategic subsidiaries as identified each time by the board of directors; and (b) at ordinary meetings of the shareholders of the strategic subsidiaries called to appoint their directors; 101 ii. identification of Impregilo’s strategic subsidiaries; iii. approval of the business plan, budget and industrial plan; iv. “Significant transactions with related parties” as defined by the company’s board of directors in the “Guidelines for transactions with related parties” ruling from time to time; v. the purchase and sale of investments in companies, consortia or other entities, as well as in businesses or business units;

Information to be provided to the board of directors The board of directors meets at least every three months. The CEO, also as chairman of the executive committee, reported to the board and the board of statutory auditors on the activities carried out under proxy at regular intervals and whenever required by the specific circumstances.

5.4. OTHER EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS - The board of directors currently consists of one executive director (the CEO) and 14 non-executive directors. As described in paragraph 3 about criterion 2.C.1., the directors making up the executive committee are considered to be non-executive as involvement in the committee, given the frequency of the meetings and subject of the related resolutions, does not entail the systematic participation of its members in the day-to-day management of the company nor does it lead to a significant increase in their remuneration compared to that received by the other non-executive directors. - In order to increase the directors’ awareness about the company’s activities and situation, all the directors and statutory auditors have been cleared to access the company’s intranet site, thus gaining direct access to the documentation and information posted thereon. They are also included in the training about the Organisation, management and control model.

5.5. INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS At the first opportunity after their appointment and during the meeting held to approve the annual draft financial statements, the board of directors assessed that each non-executive director met the independence criteria set by the Code applying each criterion established

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

thereby. The directors Carlo Buora, Alfredo Cavanenghi, Claudio Cominelli and Maurizio Maresca meet the independence requirements pursuant to both Legislative decree no. 58/98 (Consolidated act on financial intermediation) and the Code.

*** The board of statutory auditors checked the correct application of the criteria and procedures adopted to check independence by the board. The outcome of such process will be communicated by the board of statutory auditors to the market in its report to the shareholders. As resolved by the board of directors about criterion 3.C.6. of the Code in its meeting of 12 March 2007, the independent directors meet annually before the board meeting held to approve the annual financial statements for self-assessment purposes and that any remedial action to be taken be examined with respect to the role played by independent directors within the board. They met on 25 March 2009 and reported to the board on the same date.

5.6. LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR As the requirements of the Code are not met, the board has not deemed it necessary to designate an independent director as lead independent director. 102

6. TREATMENT OF COMPANY INFORMATION On 12 December 2007, the board of directors approved a special “Procedure for the internal management and external communication of documents and information” as proposed by the CEO. This procedure substituted the “Internal regulations for disclosing “price sensitive” documents and information to the market” approved by the board of directors on 27 March 2001. The Procedure includes the guidelines for the internal management and external communication of documents and information, especially privileged information as per paragraph 1, article 114 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998 (“Privileged information”). It covers all those parties who, based on their employment or professional activities or duties, have frequent or infrequent access to company information about the Issuer. These parties are obliged to: (i) maintain such confidential information secret; (ii) use such information solely to carry out their employment or professional activities; and (iii) not use such confidential information contrary to the current legislation. Specifically, the directors and statutory auditors of Impregilo S.p.A. and its subsidiaries are required to maintain information and documents obtained by them during the execution of their duties confidential as well as the contents of any discussions carried out during board meetings and as part of the work of the board of statutory auditors. In order to ensure a coordinated and standard approach, any contact with the press or other mass media or with financial analysts and institutional investors that involves information (even when not confidential) about the company or its subsidiaries can only take place after authorisation by the chairman or CEO or the corporate central manager of Impregilo S.p.A. or the External relations unit of Impregilo S.p.A., in accordance with the Procedure. The chairman and CEO of Impregilo S.p.A. are responsible for managing privileged information. The related administrative bodies are responsible for management of privileged information about the subsidiaries, which may be disclosed in accordance with the Procedure. Only the chairman and CEO of Impregilo S.p.A. may divulge privileged information to the market. The communication of privileged information must respect the criteria of completeness, timeliness, transparency, adequacy and continuity. Investors should be provided with the same information to avoid discontinuity or the creation of situations that could affect the listed share price. The chairman is responsible for ensuring compliance with the Procedure. It provides for penalties to be applied to the parties that violate it.

7. BOARD COMMITTEES The board of directors has set up an internal control committee and a remuneration committee.

8. APPOINTMENT COMMITTEE The board of directors deemed it unnecessary to set up an appointment committee as to date the shareholders have not encountered difficulties in proposing suitable candidates (and no such difficulties are envisaged) such that the composition of the board of directors complies with that recommended by the Code.

9. REMUNERATION COMMITEE As noted in paragraph 7 of this report, the board has set up a remuneration committee. It held two meetings during the year. 103 *** - Its members were non-executive directors, most of whom were independent, during the year. The committee currently consists of five directors, four of whom are independent. - The directors did not attend the committee meetings held to decide on their remuneration to be proposed to the board of directors. - The committee approved rules for its working which establish that all the members of the board of statutory auditors may always attend its meetings as may the CEO, other directors, managers and external consultants, upon invitation and depending on the matters on the agenda. The other directors may also participate. The relevant departments attended committee meetings during the year to discuss matters pertinent to them.

Committee duties: - In line with the resolutions passed by the board on 7 May 2008, the committee has consulting and proposing duties, specifically related to: • the presentation to the board of proposals about the remuneration of the CEOs and other directors with special positions, monitoring the decisions taken by the board; • the regular assessment of the criteria adopted for the remuneration of key managers, supervision of their application in line with the information provided by the CEOs and presentation of general recommendations to the board of directors. - During the year, the committee presented proposals to the board of directors about the remuneration of the chairman, deputy chairmen, the CEO, the members of the internal control committee and the corporate central manager.

*** - Minutes of its meetings are drawn up. - On 12 March 2007, the board of directors resolved to give the remuneration committee an annual budget of euro 25,000 to cover the costs of any necessary consultancy or other services required to carry out its duties. The prior authorisation of outlays is not necessary although the committee is required to document its expenses. It may also avail of internal information and functions.

10. DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION A large part of the CEO’s remuneration is tied to the Issuer’s results of operations as is a significant portion of the remuneration of the key managers and other managers. The company has a stock option plan, described in paragraph 2 of this report.

*** The non-executive directors’ remuneration is not tied to the Issuer’s results nor do they have share-based payment plans.

Such key directors were the general manager Alberto Rubegni (who is also the CEO) and the corporate central manager Rosario Fiumara. 11. INTERNAL CONTROL COMMITTEE As noted in paragraph 7 of this report, the board has set up a remuneration committee. This committee met eight times during the year. *** It has always had three independent members, of whom at least two have adequate accounting and financial expertise. The committee approved rules for its working which establish that the chairman of the board of statutory auditors, or another statutory auditor identified by him, is involved in its duties. All the members of the board of statutory auditors and the internal control supervisor may always attend meetings as may the CEO, other directors, managers, external consultants and representatives of the independent auditors, upon invitation and depending on the matters on the agenda. The other directors may also participate. At least one statutory auditor and the internal control supervisor took part in the meetings held during the year. The relevant departments, the supervisory body and the independent auditors also attended upon invitation.

Committee duties In line with the resolutions passed by the board on 7 May 2008, with respect to criterion 8.C.3. of the Code, the committee has consulting 105 and proposing duties, specifically related to: - assessment, with the manager in charge of financial reporting and the independent auditors, of the correct application of accounting policies and their consistency for the preparation of consolidated financial statements; - expression of opinions on specific issues related to the identification of significant business risks and the design, creation and management of internal controls, upon the request of the specifically appointed executive director; - examination of the work plan drawn up by the internal control supervisors and their periodic reports; - performance of any other duties assigned by the board of directors; - reporting to the board of directors on its activities and the adequacy of internal controls in the meetings held to approve the annual and half year reports.

With respect to criterion 8.C.1. of the Code, the committee assists the board with the following duties: - definition of guidelines for internal controls so that the key risks that could affect the Issuer and its subsidiaries are correctly identified, adequately measured, managed and monitored and determination of criteria for their management in line with the proper management of the business; - identification of an executive director (usually one of the CEOs) to supervise the internal controls; - assessment at least once a year of the adequacy, efficiency and effective working of the internal controls; - description of the key elements of the internal controls in the corporate governance report, expressing its assessment on its overall adequacy.

With respect to criteria 8.C.1 and 9.C.1. of the Code, the committee also assists the board of directors with the following duties: - appointment and revocation of one or more internal control supervisors upon the proposal of the Executive director in charge of internal controls and definition of their remuneration in line with the company policies;

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

- establishment of the methods used to approve and carry out transactions by the Issuer or its subsidiaries with related parties. Definition of specific transactions (ie, the criteria for their identification) which require prior approval by the internal control committee and/or the intervention of independent experts, as well as whenever the board of directors deems it appropriate.

On 7 May 2008, the directors, acknowledging the relevant positive opinion of the board of statutory auditors, resolved to assign it the duties and functions set out in letter d) - assessment of the engagement letter, the audit plan and findings set out in the independent auditors’ report and management letter (if any) - and letter e) - supervision of the audit effectiveness - of criterion 8.C.3 of the Code.

During the year, the internal control committee examined and assessed the audit plan and reports drawn up by the internal control supervisor and the reports prepared by the supervisory body as per Legislative decree no. 231/2001. It also confirmed and reported to the board of directors the correct application of the accounting policies and their consistency for the preparation of the separate and consolidated financial statements, together with the independent auditors and the manager in charge of financial reporting based on the findings of the board of statutory auditors. The committee also reported to the board of directors on its activities and the adequacy, operation and effective working 106 of the internal controls during the meetings held to approve the annual and half year reports, also with respect to identification of the main business risks. The board of statutory auditors agreed with this assessment. The committee also approved the composition and working of the board and its committees. It positively reviewed the revision of the Organisation, management and control model required by article 6 of Legislative decree no. 231/01 in line with the most recent legislative amendments, changes in the company’s organisational structure, updating of areas at risk and best practices. It found that the individual members of the supervisory body continued to meet the subjective requirements of the Organisation, management and control model and, therefore, the body as a whole.

***

Minutes of the committee meetings are drawn up.

As described in paragraph 3 of this report, on 12 March 2007, the board of directors resolved to give the internal control committee an annual budget of euro 25,000 to cover the costs of any necessary consultancy or other services required to carry out its duties. The prior authorisation of outlays is not necessary although the committee is required to document its expenses. It may also avail of internal information and functions.

12. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM On 21 March 2000, the board of directors established the guidelines for the internal control system approving a specific document entitled “Guidelines for internal controls”. During today’s meeting, the board of directors approved a new document setting out the “Guidelines for internal controls of IMPREGILO S.p.A.”, as proposed by the internal control committee in its meeting of 24 March 2009. The internal controls ensure that the key risks that could affect the Issuer and its subsidiaries are correctly identified, adequately measured, managed and monitored and determines criteria for their management in line with the proper management of the business. As required by the Code, the company’s internal controls consist of a set of rules, procedures and organisational structures put in place to ensure a healthy and efficient system which is able to identify, measure, manage and monitor the main risks. The objective is to ensure the safeguarding of the company’s assets, an efficient and effective operating system, reliable financial information and compliance with the laws and regulations. *** During the meeting to approve the annual financial statements, the internal control committee reported to the board of directors on its favourable opinion of the adequacy, operation and effective working of the internal controls following its review of the reports drawn up by the internal control supervisor and the supervisory body and based on interviews with them. The board of directors agreed with and adopted this positive assessment. A similar procedure was carried out during approval of the half year report.

12.1. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IN CHARGE OF INTERNAL CONTROLS

As described in paragraph 3 of this report, with respect to letter b) of criterion 8.C.1. of the Code of Conduct, on 12 March 2007, the board 107 of directors nominated the CEO as “Executive director in charge of internal controls”, assisted by the internal control committee.

*** Together with the internal control supervisor and the internal audit unit, this executive director: • supervised identification of the key business risks (strategic, operating, financial and compliance), considering the activities carried out by the Issuer and its subsidiaries, and presented them to the board on 26 March 2008. This review was updated during the year and its findings are currently being finalised; • implemented the guidelines established previously by the board of directors and managed the previously designed and created internal controls, checking their overall adequacy, effectiveness and efficiency on an ongoing basis, assisted by the internal control supervisor; • adapted the internal controls to reflect operating conditions and the legislative and regulatory framework, again assisted by the internal control supervisor; • proposed the remuneration of the internal control supervisor to the board of directors.

12.2. INTERNAL CONTROL SUPERVISOR The board of directors approved the proposal made by the internal control committee and appointed Raffaele Manente as internal control supervisor on 12 September 2000. This employee reports to the chairman of the board of directors alone. He heads a unit of persons with different levels of experience. The supervisor is completely autonomous in terms of his actions and in operating and control terms.

On 12 December 2007, the board of directors set the internal control supervisor’s remuneration, in line with company policies, proposed by the CEO, as executive director in charge of internal controls and after consulting the internal control committee.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

The supervisor is not in charge of any operating functions and does not report to any of the operating managers, including those of the administrative and finance department. *** The supervisor has direct access to all information useful to carry out his duties, reports to the internal control committee and the board of statutory auditors and also to the executive director in charge of internal controls.

The supervisor is financially independent with his own budget approved each year by the board of directors after consulting the internal control committee. The budget was euro 886,500 for the year.

During the year, the internal control supervisor carried out procedures to assist the supervisory body, as part of his duties as head of the internal audit unit, and also analysed, reviewed and updated the business risks as well as checking the internal controls’ adequacy, effective and efficient working on an ongoing basis. *** The Issuer has an internal audit unit, headed by the internal control supervisor. 108 During the year, the internal audit unit continued its activities to identify areas which required attention to decrease risk. It performed 15 audits and drew up the 2009-2011 audit plan.

12.3. ORGANISATION MODEL pursuant to Legislative decree no. 231/2001 On 29 January 2003, the company adopted the “Organisation, management and control model” required by article 6 of Legislative decree no. 231/01, based on the Confindustria guidelines, approved on 7 March 2002. Following the legislative changes made after adoption of the first model, the board of directors revised the model on 30 March 2005 reflecting the update to the Confindustria guidelines of 18 May 2004, the code of conduct and the model drawn up by the National Association of Building Constructors (ANCE), approved on 31 March 2003 and subsequently revised on 1 September 2004. On 12 September 2006, 21 July 2008 and 25 March 2009, following the extension of the crimes covered, the internal reorganisations that had taken place in the meantime, the revision of the “Activities at risk” and in accordance with best practices, the board of directors approved the new “Organisation, management and control model” (the general section of which is available on the internet site www.impregilo.it,in the “Investor Relations – Corporate Governance – Corporate documents” section). The model’s objective is to prevent certain crimes (those committed when dealing with the state, forgery of banknotes, public paper and stamp duties, company crimes, terrorist acts or subversion of democratic order, crimes against people’s life and safety, crimes against the individual, market abuse and international crimes, receiving, laundering and use of stolen money, goods or facilities, crimes against safety in the workplace, cybercrimes and the unlawful processing of data). On 12 September 2006, the board of directors set the number of members of the supervisory body as per article 6 of Legislative decree no. 231/2001 as three, in line with that required by the new Organisation, management and control model and appointed them, consisting of the internal control supervisor (internal employee being the internal audit manager) and two external persons. Previously, the body had been monocratic (internal control supervisor). The only Italian subsidiary of strategic importance, FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. adopted its own “Organisation, management and control model” on 5 March 2004 and last updated it on 9 September 2008. The group’s Code of Conduct forms part of the Model (available on the internet site www.impregilo.it, in the “Investor Relations - Corporate Governance - Corporate documents” section). The present version was approved by the Issuer’s board of directors on 12 September 2006.

12.4. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Impregilo and its main subsidiaries have engaged independent auditors to perform the legally-required audit of their financial statements and to check that their accounting records are kept correctly as required by Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998. Their half year reports are reviewed. The independent auditors perform an audit of Impregilo, in accordance with the applicable legislation. As part of the general audit plan for the group, the subsidiaries that do not exceed the thresholds set by Consob have nonetheless engaged the independent auditors on a voluntary basis.

The shareholders resolved to engage PricewaterhouseCoopers S.p.A. to audit the parent’s financial statements for the period from 2006 to 109 2011 in their meeting of 3 May 2006. On 3 May 2007, they extended the independent auditors’ engagement for the period from 2012 to 2014, pursuant to paragraph 7, article 8 of Legislative decree no. 303 of 29 December 2006.

12.5. MANAGER IN CHARGE OF FINANCIAL REPORTING On 27 June 2007, the shareholders approved article 26 to be included in the by-laws. This new article regulates the appointment and removal from office of the manager in charge of financial reporting, the term of his office, related fee and relevant professional characteristics. Article 26 requires that the board appoint, and remove from office, after consulting the board of statutory auditors, a manager to be in charge of financial reporting, setting his term of office and fee. The candidates shall have at least three years’ experience in: (a) administration and finance or administration and control or management duties with responsibility for financial, accounting and control matters, with companies that have a share capital of at least euro 2 million or consortia of companies with a total share capital of not less than euro 2 million; or (b) legal, economic or financial aspects closely related to the company’s activities; or (c) management at a state body or public administration office active in the credit, financial or insurance sectors or in sectors closely related to that of the company. Aspects and sectors closely related to the company’s activities are those set out in the last paragraph of article 29 (which states: “Pursuant to letters b) and c), paragraph 2, article 1 and paragraph 3 of Ministerial decree no. 162 of 30 March 2000, aspects and sectors closely related to those of the company are those aspects (legal, economic, financial and technical-scientific) and business sectors tied to or related to the company’s activities and part of its business object”). The board of directors carried out a careful analysis to identify the most suitable person from within the company, considering the personal and professional characteristics that this position requires. In accordance with the guidelines of the first professional interpretations of the law and based on its analysis, the board found Rosario Fiumara, the current corporate central manager to be the most suitable candidate. Therefore, as proposed by the CEO, it appointed him as the manager in charge of financial reporting on 11 September 2007 in accordance with article 154-bis of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

During the same meeting, the board established that Rosario Fiumara’s position as manager in charge of financial reporting would have an open term, until otherwise determined by it. It set the fee for the position, as proposed by the remuneration committee which met on the same date. The board also gave Mr. Fiumara all the powers and authority required to effectively carry out his functions and duties in his new position within the budget limits approved and which were provisionally fixed at euro 50,000.00. The manger kept his original powers as corporate central manager and may be given additional powers for this position in the future. Such powers include: • direct access to all information required to produce accounting data; • unlimited use of internal communication channels which ensure the correct intragroup exchange of information; • a free hand in organising his unit in terms of both human and technical resources (materials, IT and any other items); • creation and adoption of administrative and accounting procedures independently, also by availing of the assistance of other company functions when necessary; • assessment and modification of internal administrative and accounting procedures; • participation at meetings of the board and executive committee, especially those which discuss issues related to his function and for which he is responsible; 110 • engaging external consultants, when necessary for specific issues; • interacting with employees with control duties and exchanging information to ensure the ongoing mapping of risks and processes and the proper monitoring of the correct working of administrative and accounting procedures. Rosario Fiumara accepted the position as manager in charge of financial reporting on the same date.

13. DIRECTORS’ INTERESTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In its meeting of 7 July 2005, the board of directors adopted a new specific procedure to ensure the substantial and formal correctness of the transactions carried out by the company with related parties (“Guidelines for Transactions with Related Parties”).This procedure ensures compliance with the standards set by the Code of Conduct for such transactions. For the purposes of these guidelines, a party is considered to be “related” when: a) directly or indirectly, via one or more intermediary, the party: (i) controls the entity, is a subsidiary thereof, or is subject to joint control (including parents, subsidiaries and related entities); (ii) holds an investment in the entity such that it has significant influence over it; or (iii) jointly controls the entity; b) the party is an associate of the entity; c) the party is a joint venture in which the entity has a share; d) the party is one of the key managers for the entity or its parent; e) the party is a close relative of one of the subjects in points (a) or (d); f) the party is a subsidiary, jointly controlled entity or subject to significant influence by one of the subjects as per points (d) or (e) or the parties hold, directly or indirectly, a significant portion of the voting rights; g) the party is a pension fund for the entity’s employees or any other related entity. For the purposes of the above definition: (i) the concept of control is that set out in IAS 24 (ie, control exists when an entity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Joint control is the contractually established sharing of control of an economic activity); (ii) the concept of significant influence is that set out in IAS 24 (ie, significant influence is the power to take part in determining the financial and operating policies of an entity without having control. Significant influence may be obtained by holding shares, by-law conditions or agreements); (iii) the concept of an associate is that set out in IAS 28 (ie, an associate is an entity in which the investor has significant influence and is not either a subsidiary or a jointly controlled entity); (iv) key managers are directors and statutory auditors, general managers and managers with powers and responsibilities for the planning, management and control over the company’s activities; (v) close relatives are those that could influence, or be influenced by, the person related to the company; they include persons who reside 111 in the same household, spouses who are not legally separated and relatives and in-laws up to the second degree. The procedure adopted by the board establishes that transactions with related parties should be subjected to the prior approval of the board of directors when they are significant in terms of the object, consideration, method and timing thereof. Significant transactions are all those transactions carried out with related parties other than: (i) transactions with wholly-owned subsidiaries that have a value of less than euro 500,000.00; (ii) transactions carried out within the group that are not atypical or unusual or that have been agreed at standard conditions. Transactions are considered typical or usual when, due to their object or nature, they are part of the company’s normal activities and those that are not critical in terms of their characteristics or risks related to the nature of the counterparty and their timing. Transactions that are agreed at the same conditions with all other parties are considered to have taken place at standard conditions. In order to ensure that conditions that differ from those that would probably have been agreed with unrelated parties are agreed, the board of directors ensures that transactions are agreed with the assistance of independent, highly qualified experts (banks, independent auditors, legal firms and other experts with specialist knowledge). These experts are asked to provide their opinions on the financial conditions, executive and technical methods and legitimacy of the Relevant Transactions with Related Parties.

***

As described in paragraph 3 of this report, on 12 March 2007, the directors resolved, with respect to criterion 9.C.2., that, subject to the provisions of article 2391 of the Italian Civil Code, directors with interests, either directly or on behalf of third parties, in a corporate transaction to be approved by the board of directors or executive committee may participate in the related discussions and vote thereon as such interest (investment) represents a reason for taking a responsible decision about a transaction about which the director may have greater knowledge than the other directors; that, however, the board of directors or executive committee may ask such directors to leave the meeting during the discussion on a case-by-case basis.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

14. APPOINTMENT OF STATUTORY AUDITORS Article 29) of the Issuer’s by-laws requires that “the shareholders elect a board of statutory auditors, consisting of three standing and two substitute statutory auditors. The statutory auditors shall have the characteristics required by law, the by-laws and any other relevant regulations. Appointment of the board of statutory auditors takes place using lists presented by the shareholders using the methods and within the timeframe set out below. The candidates are listed in consecutive order in each list. Lists have two sections: one for the candidate standing statutory auditors and one for the candidate substitute statutory auditors. They shall include at least one candidate for each position and may comprise up to a maximum of three candidates for the standing statutory auditor position and up to two for the substitute statutory auditor position. Lists presented by the shareholders are deposited at the company’s registered office to be available for public consultation as indicated in the notice calling the shareholders’ meeting. They are deposited at least fifteen days before the date of first call of the meeting, unless other mandatory instructions are given by legislative and regulatory instructions. Shareholders, shareholders forming part of significant shareholder agreements as per article 122 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998, the parent, subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities as per article 93 of the same decree may not present, or be involved in presenting 112 (also via trustees or nominees), more than one list. Nor can they vote (also via trustees or nominees) for more than one list. Moreover, each candidate may only be present in one list in order to be eligible. Inclusion in more than one list or votes for more than one list are not counted. Only those shareholders that, either individually or together with other shareholders, own shares making up at the percentage of share capital required for presentation of lists for candidate directors, may present lists. Together with each list, and within the timeframe described earlier, the shareholders deposit: (i) information about the shareholders presenting the list and the relevant certificate issued by a legally-authorised broker showing ownership to the number of shares necessary to present lists; (ii) statements whereby each candidate accepts their candidature and states, under their own responsibility, the inexistence of any reasons for ineligibility or incompatibility and the existence of the requirements for the relevant offices, including compliance with the ceiling for the number of positions that can be held under the current law and regulations; (iii) a professional and personal profile of each candidate; and (iv) any other information that is requested by the applicable law or regulations given in the notice calling the shareholders’ meeting. Lists which are presented that do not meet the above requirements are considered not to have been presented. Candidates that are ineligible or incompatible or who do not have the requirements established by the relevant legislation or who hold more positions than is allowed by the current laws and regulations cannot be included in the lists. The statutory auditors are elected as follows: 1. two standing statutory auditors and one substitute statutory auditor are taken from the list that got the most votes in the shareholders’ meeting, taken from the list in consecutive order in which they are included in the list sections; 2. the other standing auditor and other substitute auditor are taken from the list that received the second largest number of votes and that was presented and voted by shareholders that are not related directly or indirectly to the shareholders as per paragraph 2, article 148 of Legislative decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998. They are taken in consecutive order from the list sections (“Minority list”). If two lists received the same amount of votes, that presented by the majority shareholders is considered or, subordinately, that presented by the larger number of shareholders. When the list system is not used, shareholders elect statutory auditors by majority vote. The chairman of the board of statutory auditors is the first candidate on the Minority list. Statutory auditors fall from office in the cases provided for by the relevant legislation or whenever the by-law requirements for their appointment are no longer met. When one of the standing statutory auditors needs to be replaced, the substitute statutory auditor from the same list is co-opted. If both the standing and substitute statutory auditors from the Minority list leave their positions, the candidate in the next place on the same list is co- opted or the first candidate on the minority list that received the second largest number of votes. Shareholders appoint or replace statutory auditors in meetings called in accordance with paragraph 1 of article 2401 of the Italian Civil Code complying with the requirement to ensure minority shareholder representation. Outgoing statutory auditors may be re-elected. As required by letters b) and c), paragraph 2, article 1 and paragraph 3 of Ministerial decree no. 162 of 30 March 2000, aspects and sectors closely related to the company’s activities are those aspects (legal, economic, financial and technical-scientific) and business sectors tied to or related to the company’s activities and part of its business object.”

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Corporate governance report

On 11 June 2008, following the appointment of the new statutory auditors by the shareholders on 7 May 2008, the board of statutory auditors found that all the statutory auditors complied with the independence requirements of the Code. On 17 February 2009, it confirmed they had continued to meet such requirements throughout 2008. *** - Impregilo complies with the guidelines of criterion 10.C.4 of the Code, whereby statutory auditors that either directly or on behalf of third parties have an interest in a specific transaction shall inform the other statutory auditors and the chairman of the board of directors promptly and completely about the nature, scope, origin and terms of their interest. - In the meetings held during the year, the statutory auditors met the independent auditors who described the scope of their engagement, their responsibilities and independence as well as the procedures carried out for Impregilo and the group companies that have engaged them. - As part of its duties, the board of statutory auditors worked with the internal audit unit and the internal control committee. It took part in meetings of the latter committee with the internal control supervisor and the internal audit head. The internal control supervisor and the internal audit head also participated in several board of statutory auditors’ meetings when it reviewed the supervisor’s work.

114 16. INVESTOR RELATIONS The company believes that it is in its interests and also that it has a duty to the market to have an ongoing dialogue with its shareholders and institutional investors based on a common understanding of their roles. Such dialogue takes place within the boundaries established for confidential information to ensure that investors and potential investors receive information upon which they can base their investment decisions. Therefore, it set up the current Investor Relations unit in July 2001 headed by the Investor Relator (presently Mauro Di Bonito) whose specific duties include managing relations with investors. This person has an e-mail address specifically for receiving communications and requests from shareholders ([email protected]). The company’s internet site (www.impregilo.it) has a section for relations with investors (“Investor Relations”) where all the financial information can be found as well as up-to-date documents of interest to the shareholders, in order that they may exercise their rights in an informed manner. Impregilo posts information of interest to its shareholders on its internet site www.impregilo.it.

17. SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETINGS The document “Methods for participating at meetings by shareholders” is posted on the company’s internet site www.impregilo.it (in the “Investor Relations - Corporate Governance - Corporate documents” section). Pursuant to article 14) of the by-laws, shareholders that have presented the communication required by paragraph 2, article 2370 of the Italian Civil Code to the company within the deadline of two business days before that set for the meeting may participate at such meeting. Article 16) of the by-laws states that the documentation issued for participation at the meeting held on first call is also valid for other meetings and that meetings are called with at least 30 days notice by inclusion of an advertisement setting out the agenda in the Italian Official Journal or in the newspaper Il Corriere della Sera. The latter alternative is simpler in formal terms and allows greater flexibility while also ensuring that more shareholders are aware that the meeting has been called. The by-laws do not require that the shares, for which the communication pursuant to paragraph 2, article 2370 of the Italian Civil Code is required, remain unavailable until the meeting has been held, nor do they allow voting by post or on-screen or video link-up. *** In their ordinary meeting of 8 May 2001, the shareholders approved the “Rules for shareholders’ meetings” (available on the internet site www.impregilo.it, in the “Investor Relations - Corporate Governance - Corporate documents” section), drawn up using the format proposed by Assonime. Their scope is to ensure the orderly carrying out of meetings with respect to each shareholder’s fundamental right to request clarifications about matters on the agenda, to express its opinion and make proposals. These rules set out the methods used to ensure each shareholder’s right to take part in discussions about the matters on the agenda. *** The board of directors reported to the shareholders about the activities both carried out and planned for the future in the meeting held during 2008. It took the necessary steps to ensure that the shareholders received adequate information about the matters in order to be able to make informed decisions.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION Impregilo group has prepared its 2008 consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. As required by Regulation no. 1606/2002 issued by the European Parliament and Council, implemented in Italy by Legislative decree no. 38/2005, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union up to 31 December 2008. They comprise a consolidated balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and these notes. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost principle, except for those items which are recognised at fair value in accordance with IFRS, as described in the section on “Accounting policies”. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, hedged with transactions which qualify for hedge accounting, are adjusted to reflect changes in fair value related to the hedged risks. The consolidated balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity are presented in Euros and the amounts are shown in thousands of Euros, unless stated otherwise.

132 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The European Union endorsed IFRIC 11 (IFRS 2 - Group and Treasury Share Transactions), applicable from 1 January 2008. This interpretation has not affected the group’s 2008 financial statements. On 13 October 2008, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 39 - Financial instruments: recognition and measurement - and to IFRS 7 - Financial instruments: disclosures - applicable from 1 July 2008. This allows in special circumstances: (i) reclassification of non-derivative financial assets belonging to the category “at fair value through profit or loss”; (ii) transfer of loans and receivables classified as “held for sale” to “held to maturity”, if the company has the intention and ability to hold such instruments for a foreseeable future period or until maturity. Adoption of the above amendment has not affected the group’s consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2008 as, due to the type and limited materiality of the above categories of financial instruments held by the group, it has not made the related reclassifications.

FORMAT AND CONTENT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The group’s consolidated financial statements include the balance sheet and income statement of the parent, Impregilo S.p.A., and the Italian and foreign operating companies controlled directly or indirectly by Impregilo S.p.A.. The separate financial statements, used for consolidation purposes, at 31 December 2008 approved by the internal bodies of the consolidated companies have been used for consolidation purposes. The financial statements are prepared by adopting the parent’s accounting policies. Where necessary, consolidation adjustments have been made to make the items affected by different accounting policies consistent. A list of the companies and other Impregilo group entities included in the consolidation scope is set out in the annexes with the schedules showing changes therein during the year. Based on information that came to light after preparing the 2005 consolidated financial statements and in accordance with the group’s consultants, the group decided that the conditions for application of IFRS 5 - Non-current assets classified as held for sale and discontinued operations continue to exist as in the 2007 financial statements. Therefore, it has recognised the USW Campania project net assets and results of operations separately in the consolidated balance sheet and income statement. Due to reasons outside Impregilo’s control, the period for completion of the sale has extended beyond the year allowed by IFRS 5. Despite this, the group’s commitment to finalising the sale as described in the directors’ report remains unchanged. Therefore, the directors have not deemed it necessary to change the accounting treatment of the assets in question as provided for in IFRS 5.9.

Format of consolidated financial statements In line with previous years, the group opted to present its consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2008 as follows: • Current and non-current assets and current and non-current liabilities are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet. Current assets that include cash and cash equivalents are those expected to be realised, sold or used in the group’s normal operating cycle. Non-current assets include positive balances expected to be realised more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, financial assets and deferred tax assets. Current liabilities include payables 133 expected to be settled no more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, including the current part of medium/long-term loans. Non-current liabilities include payables expected to be settled more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, such as financial payables, personnel-related provisions and deferred tax liabilities. • The consolidated income statement gives a classification of costs by nature and shows the profit or loss before “Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments” and income taxes. The profit or loss from continuing operations, the profits or losses from discontinued operations and the profit or loss attributable to minority interests and that attributable to shareholders of the parent are also disclosed. • The consolidated cash flow statement presents the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities separately. The indirect method is used.

CONSOLIDATION CRITERIA The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by consolidating the financial statements at 31 December 2008 of Impregilo S.p.A., the parent, and the Italian and foreign companies which the parent directly or indirectly controls on a line-by-line basis. Control exists when the group has the power to govern, directly or indirectly, the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Generally speaking, control is presumed to exist when the group holds more than half of the voting rights either directly or indirectly. Entities or companies over which Impregilo has joint control, by virtue of an investment therein or specific contractual arrangements, are consolidated using the proportionate method as established by IAS 31. Associates are measured using the equity method. The financial statements used for consolidation are modified (made consistent) and reclassified to comply with the group’s accounting policies in line with the currently applicable IFRS.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

The financial statements used are expressed in the functional currency, being the local currency or another currency in which most of the economic transactions and assets and liabilities are denominated. The functional currency for the majority of the parent’s foreign group branches is the Euro as this is the main currency they use to operate. Financial statements expressed in currencies other than the Euro are translated into Euros by applying the closing rates to the balance sheet items and the average annual rates to the income statement items. Differences arising from the translation of the opening equity using the closing rates are taken to the translation reserve.

The exchange rates used to translate the foreign currency financial statements into Euros are as follows:

Currency 31.12.2008 31.12.2008 31.12.2007 31.12.2006 Closing rate Average rate Closing rate Closing rate United States - USD 1.39170 1.47076 1.4721 1.3170 United Kingdom - GBP 0.95250 0.79629 0.7334 0.6715

When an investment is sold, the accumulated amount recognised in equity is released to the income statement. The key consolidation criteria used to prepare these consolidated financial statements may be summarised as follows: • subsidiaries are consolidated on a line-by-line basis, whereby: a) assets and liabilities, costs and revenue shown in the subsidiaries’ financial statements are fully recognised, regardless of the size of the investment therein; b) the carrying amount of the investment is eliminated against the group’s share of its equity; c) the main transactions between fully consolidated entities, including dividends distributed among group companies, are eliminated; d) minority interests are shown separately under equity and their share of the profit or loss for the year is similarly shown separately in the income statement. • investments in associates are measured using the equity method whereby the carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to consider: a) the parent’s share of the profit or loss of the associate realised after the acquisition date; b) modifications arising from changes in equity of the associate that are not taken to profit or loss as per the relevant IFRS; c) dividends distributed by the associates; d) any gains paid at acquisition (measured using the same criteria set out in the section on “Accounting policies” for goodwill); e) the share of the profit or loss deriving from application of the equity method, which is taken to profit or loss; f) standardisation to comply with the group accounting policies, where necessary. • Interests in joint ventures are consolidated using the proportionate method whereby the proportionate amount of the assets, liabilities, costs and revenue of the financial statements of the joint ventures is recognised. Dividends, revaluations and impairment losses on investments in consolidated companies and gains and losses on the intragroup exchange of investments in consolidated entities are eliminated. Gains and losses arising from transactions between consolidated companies, which are not realised directly or indirectly through transactions with third parties, are eliminated in line with the investment percentage.

135 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The acquisition of subsidiaries is recognised using the method set out in IFRS 3. The cost is determined by summing the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed or incurred, the equity instruments issued by the group in exchange for control of the company acquired at the date when control is obtained, and the costs directly related to the combination. The identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree that meet the recognition requirements of IFRS 3 are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, except for non-current assets (or disposal groups) which are classified as held for sale as per IFRS 5. They are recognised and measured at the lower of purchase cost and fair value less costs to sell. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is recognised as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the purchase cost (determined as above) compared to the group’s share of the present value of the recognised identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. If the group’s share of the present value of these assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the purchase cost after their remeasurement, the excess is taken to profit or loss. Minority interests in the acquiree are initially measured as being equal to their share of the present value of the recognised assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. When a business combination consists of more than one transaction involving the subsequent purchases of shares or quotas, each transaction is treated separately, using the cost and information related to fair value at the date of each transaction to determine any additional goodwill. When a subsequent purchase ensures control of the company, the part previously held is remeasured using the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities determined at the date of the subsequent purchase. The balancing entry of this revaluation is taken to equity attributable to the shareholders of the parent. Purchases made subsequent to obtaining control do not entail revaluations of the identifiable assets, liabilities and identifiable contingent liabilities at fair value. The positive or negative difference between the purchase cost and the additional purchase of the company’s net assets is allocated to goodwill. In the case of a sale of shares or quotas that does not involve loss of control, the difference between the sales price and the carrying amount of the assets sold is taken to profit or loss.

BASIS OF PREPARATION The accounting policies adopted to draw up the group’s consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2008 comply with the IFRS and are consistent with those used to prepare the 2007 consolidated financial statements.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES Property, plant and equipment Impregilo group has opted to recognise property, plant and equipment at purchase or production cost net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis using rates determined based on the assets’ residual possible use. The annual rates are as follows:

Category Depreciation rate Land - Buildings 3% 136 Plant and machinery from 10% to 20% Industrial and commercial equipment from 25% to 40% Other assets from 12% to 25%

Land and buildings, plant and machinery with a carrying amount to be recovered mainly through their sale (rather than the asset’s continued use) are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Assets classified as held for sale shall be immediately available for sale and their sale shall be highly probable (ie, the related commitments already exist). Their sales value shall be reasonable compared to their fair value. Assets acquired as a result of business combinations are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date and remeasured within a year. Such amount reflects their purchase cost. After their initial recognition, they are measured at cost, depreciated over their estimated useful lives and shown net of any impairment losses. When an asset consists of different significant components with different useful lives, they are recognised and subsequently measured separately. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is tested for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances take place indicating that the carrying amount will not be recovered. Reference should be made to the section on “Impairment of assets” for details on impairment testing. The group has adopted the alternative method to recognise borrowing costs directly related to the acquisition or construction of an asset that provides for their capitalisation as part of the cost of the asset, to the extent of its recoverable amount. As established by IAS 23 - Borrowing costs, the group has applied this method to all qualifying assets. Borrowing costs are capitalised when the costs of the acquisition of the asset and borrowing costs are incurred, and the activities necessary to bring the asset into a condition for its use have been started. The costs provided for but not yet paid related to qualifying assets are excluded from determination of the amount to be capitalised. Capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted. Moreover, capitalisation of borrowing costs ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete. Costs incurred after the purchase are only capitalised if they increase the future economic benefits of the related asset. All other costs are expensed when incurred. Ordinary maintenance costs are fully expensed when incurred. Costs for extraordinary maintenance carried out at regular intervals are capitalised when they meet the criteria for capitalisation. Dismantlement and restoration costs of assets used for work in progress are added to the cost of the related asset and depreciated in line with the depreciation pattern of the asset to which they refer when they are expected and objectively determinable. Leasehold improvements are classified in the different items of property, plant and equipment on the basis of their nature. They are depreciated over the lower of the estimated useful life of the relevant asset and the residual term of the lease.

Property, plant and equipment acquired 137 and/or held with finance leases Assets held under finance leases whereby all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred to the group are recognised as group assets and classified as property, plant and equipment. The related payable to the lessor is shown under financial payables. The lease payment is split into the financial expense, taken to the income statement, and the principal repayment, offset against the financial payable. The carrying amount of the leased asset is determined considering its fair value or, if lower, the present value of the lease payments. Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s estimated useful life and the lease term. Leases where the lessor retains all the risks and rewards of ownership are treated as operating leases. The initial negotiation costs incurred for this type of lease increase the value of the related lease and are recognised over the lease term netted against the revenue generated by the lease. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Freely transferable assets Freely transferable assets are covered by concession contracts. At 31 December 2008, they have been classified as non-current assets and measured, consistently with the criteria used in previous years, at cost, including borrowing costs and general costs that can be capitalised over the related contracts, as defined in the accounting policy for property, plant and equipment. The carrying amount includes any gains or losses deriving from contracts between group companies. This is because the awarding of such contracts takes place through tenders at market value and is similar to contracts performed on behalf of third parties as the resulting assets are transferred free of charge at the end of the concession to the concession grantor. Freely transferable assets are depreciated over the term of the concession in line with their economic lives. Any provision for their repair or replacement is recognised under the provisions for risks and charges. The carrying amount of freely transferable assets is tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances take place indicating that the carrying amount will not be recovered. Reference should be made to the section on “Impairment of assets” for details on impairment testing. Concession contracts are dealt with in IFRIC 12 issued by the IFRIC in November 2006, which has not yet been endorsed by the European Union.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are recognised at cost net of impairment losses. At 31 December 2008, Impregilo group did not have any intangible assets with indefinite lives other than goodwill. Goodwill acquired as part of a business combination consists of any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired as at the date of the exchange transaction. Goodwill deriving from acquisitions is not amortised. It is tested annually for impairment or whenever conditions arise that presume impairment as per IAS 36 - Impairment of Assets. For impairment testing purposes, goodwill acquired as part of a business combination is allocated at the acquisition date to each of the cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units - CGUs) that will benefit from the acquisition. The carrying amount of goodwill is monitored at cash-generating unit level for internal management purposes. Impairment is determined by defining the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (or group of units) to which the goodwill is allocated. When the recoverable amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised. When goodwill is allocated to a CGU (or group of CGUs), the asset of which has been partly disposed of, the goodwill allocated to the 138 disposed of asset is considered to determine any gain or loss deriving from the transaction. In this case, the transferred goodwill is measured using the amounts related to the disposed of asset compared to the asset still held by the unit.

Other intangible assets Other intangible assets purchased or generated internally are recognised under assets in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible assets when it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Those assets with finite useful lives are measured at purchase or development cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Recoverability of their carrying amount is checked by using the criteria set out in the section on “Impairment of assets”. The excess of the purchase cost compared to the group’s share of the net fair value of the high capacity business units acquired in the past is classified as other intangible assets and mainly refers to acquisition costs of the business units purchased. The related amortisation is calculated in line with the stage of completion of the work. Ancillary charges for share capital increases are recorded in equity as a decrease in the related reserve, net of deferred taxes. Ancillary charges for financing transactions are recognised under liabilities against the disbursed loan as per the criteria given in the section on “Loans and bonds”.

Other non-current assets Other non-current assets mainly consist of loans and receivables and claims related to completed or nearly completed contracts, as in the case of Imprepar S.p.A. in liquidation. This company’s liquidation plan provides for the realisation of the assets after twelve months from year end. These assets are measured at their estimated realisable value, by recognising provisions to adjust their carrying amount accordingly. Claims are only recognised for the amounts matured and that part which is held to be reasonably recoverable. The estimated realisable value is discounted if the time value of money is material depending on when settlement is expected to take place. Impairment of assets If there is any indication that an intangible asset or an item of property, plant and equipment is impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of the impairment loss. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If a binding sales agreement does not exist, fair value is estimated using the observable prices of an active market, recent transactions or the best information available to reflect the amount the entity could obtain by disposing of the asset. Value in use is determined by discounting to present value the estimated future cash flows, expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset, gross of taxes, and, if reasonably determinable, from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Discounting is applied by using a pre-tax discount rate which reflects the present market value of the time value of money and specific risks. The assessment is made for individual assets or the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets from its continuing use (cash-generating unit). An impairment loss is recognised when the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. If the reasons for the impairment loss are no longer valid, the impairment loss (except in the case of goodwill) is reversed and the adjustment is taken to profit or loss as a reversal of impairment 139 losses. A reversal of impairment losses is recognised to the extent of the lower of the recoverable amount and original carrying amount less depreciation/amortisation that would have been recognised had the impairment loss not been recognised.

Inventories of goods Inventories of goods are measured at the lower of average purchase cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the directly related costs and estimated realisable value is determined using the replacement cost of the asset or similar assets. Any write-downs are eliminated in subsequent years when the reasons therefor are no longer valid.

Contract work in progress and revenue from construction contracts Contract work in progress consists of work performed net of progress billings issued to customers. When payment of the consideration is completed, the related turnover, including the advances, is recognised under “Revenue - goods and services” in the income statement with the related variation in inventories. The provision for contractual risks is directly offset against inventories and is set up to cover possible charges and losses on contracts performed either directly by the group or as part of a joint venture. Contract work in progress is measured considering the consideration agreed with the customer and the stage of completion of the work. Revenue related to contract work in progress is recognised using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is determined using the cost to cost method whereby the percentage of completion (the ratio between costs incurred and total estimated costs) is applied to the total estimated revenue. Given the technical complexity, size and length of time involved in completing contracts, the additional considerations are measured before an agreement is reached with the customer. Claims for additional considerations are considered when measuring contract work in progress when they can be quantified and they are reasonably certain to be made.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

In the case of events that take place after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are approved, which provide additional information about expected profits or losses on the contract, this additional information is considered when determining the contractual revenue or costs to be incurred to complete the contract and for the recognition of any profits or losses. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately. The contract costs, included in the cost to cost calculation, may be classified as: • pre-operating costs, which include costs incurred during the start-up stage of the contract, before construction starts, such as the costs of design and specific studies carried out for the contract; organisation and production start-up costs and building site start-up costs. These pre-operating costs are included in the stage of completion calculation and in the cost to cost calculation once they have been incurred. During the initial stage of the contract, they are included in the carrying amount of work in progress, if recoverable, without recognising any profit margin when the profit or loss cannot be reliably determined; • contract operating costs, which include those directly attributable to the contract (eg, materials, subcontracting, labour, amortisation and depreciation, expropriation costs, etc.). They are recognised on an accruals basis and included in the calculation of the stage of completion; 140 • post-operating costs: this category includes site dismantlement costs generally incurred after the contract has been closed to remove the installations (or entire sites) and to return the machinery or plant to the company’s premises or transfer them to another site. This category also includes losses on abandoned materials and the cost of transporting unused materials. They are included in the contract estimate and, therefore, if incurred during the contract term, they are comprised in the calculation of the stage of completion. Therefore, no specific accruals are made to the income statement; • costs for services to be rendered after completion of the contract: when provided for in the contract, these costs mainly relate to services rendered after the contract has been completed. They may include assistance and supervision provided in the early stages of use of the plant or scheduled maintenance. If the contract does not include specific additional considerations for these services and the contact may be “closed” for accounting purposes (contracts are usually closed once work is completed and the customer has accepted the end result), the costs to be incurred to render these services when the contract is closed in the accounting records should be estimated and provided for in the specific items. These costs are included in the calculation to determine the contract revenue.

Real estate projects Closing inventories of real estate projects are those real estate areas developed with a view to selling them. They are measured at the lower of costs incurred and estimated realisable value. Costs incurred consist of the consideration paid for purchasing the areas and related charges, construction costs and borrowing costs related to the project up to and not exceeding its completion.

Financial assets and liabilities Measurement and presentation of financial instruments are covered by IAS 39 and IAS 32. The group has introduced the disclosure required by IFRS 7 from 2007. The financial instruments used by the group are classified as follows: financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets. Financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss This category also includes derivatives that do not meet hedge accounting requirements. Fair value gains or losses on derivatives in this category are recognised as “Financing income (costs)” in profit or loss when they arise.

Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market. They are measured at amortised cost, as detailed further on, and any gains or losses arising therefrom are recognised as “Financing income (costs)” in profit or loss under the amortised cost method.

This category includes the following items: • Trade receivables and payables and other receivables and payables Trade and other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, net of impairment losses determined on the basis of their estimated recoverable amount calculated by analysing each position and the total non-collection risk. 141 If the collection date is postponed and exceeds normal collection times for the sector, these receivables are discounted. All factored receivables that do not meet the requirements for derecognition under IAS 39 continue to be recognised in the group’s financial statements even when they have been legally transferred. They are thus included as assets and a financial liability of the same amount is recognised. Trade and other payables are recognised at amortised cost allocating the effective interest rate to the income statement, being the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through to the carrying amount of the financial asset.

• Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits and other short-term, highly liquid investments with a term of less than three months. In the cash flow statement, this item is shown net of bank borrowings at the balance sheet date.

• Loans and bonds Loans and bonds are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration received less transaction costs. After initial recognition, loans are measured at amortised cost, whereby repayments are determined using the effective interest method with a rate which matches, at initial recognition, the expected cash flows with the initial carrying amount. Amortised cost is calculated considering the issue costs and any discounts or premiums provided for at settlement. The effects arising from the recognition at amortised cost are taken to “Financing income (costs)”.

Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. They are recognised at amortised cost, and interest accrued thereon is taken to profit or loss under “Financial income” using the effective interest method.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are not classified in the other categories. They include the following items: •Equity investments Investments in entities other than subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures (reference for which should be made to the section on “Consolidation scope”) are classified as “Equity investments” at the time of their acquisition and are included in the available-for-sale financial assets category required by IAS 39. Since they mainly relate to consortia and consortium companies of which the group holds less than 20%, in accordance with IAS 39, such investments are stated as non-current assets measured at cost, adjusted for impairment, since their fair value cannot be determined. Investments in listed companies belonging to this category are measured at fair value and the related fair value gains or losses are recognised in equity. Dividend income from such financial instruments is recognised in profit or loss under financial income when the group companies holding the investments are given the right to such dividend.

142 Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of financial instruments has been estimated as follows: • The fair value of financial instruments traded on an active market is based on the market price at the reporting date or, where more significant, the average price of the last month of the year. This method has been applied especially to listed financial instruments classified as “Available-for-sale financial assets” and financial instruments classified as “Held-to-maturity investments”. • The fair value of the derivatives classified as “Hedging derivatives” and “Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” has been measured based on the Discounted Cash Flow Model. With respect to interest rate swaps, discounted cash flows have been estimated using the implicit forward rate of the market Euro curve at 31 December 2008 and 2007, while the forward exchange rate market prices at the relevant reporting date have been used for currency forward transactions. • The fair value of loans and receivables has been determined on the basis of the present value of their future cash flows discounted at a rate equal to the current interest rates applicable in the relevant markets and the average spread agreed by the group.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities (a) Financial assets A financial asset (or, where applicable, part of a financial asset or parts of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when: (i) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the group retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients in full and immediately; (iii) the group transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the asset and: (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; or (b) neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset but has transferred control. When the group has transferred the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or has retained control, it continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of guaranteeing the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the initial carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of the consideration that the group could be required to pay. When the group’s continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option on the transferred asset (including options settled in cash or similar options), the extent of the group’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that the group may repurchase. However, in the case of a written put option on an asset that is measured at fair value (including the options settled in cash or similarly), the extent of the group’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

(b) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are derecognised when the underlying obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is exchanged with another by the same lender at substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, this exchange or modification is treated as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss. 143

Impairment of financial assets If there is any indication that a financial asset is impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of the impairment loss.

Derivatives and hedging transactions Impregilo group has derivatives recognised at fair value when the related agreement is signed and for subsequent fair value changes. The treatment of the related fair value gains or losses changes depending on whether the conditions for hedge accounting are met, as described below. Impregilo group has derivatives to hedge currency, financial and commodity (raw materials such as copper, nickel and steel) price risks. At the inception of the transaction, it documents the hedging transaction, its risk management and strategy objectives in entering into the transaction, the hedging instrument and hedged item or transaction and the nature of the hedged risk. Moreover, at the inception of the transaction and thereafter on an ongoing basis, the group documents whether or not the hedge meets the effectiveness requirements to offset its exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged item or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Based on the above-mentioned documentation, derivatives used for specific hedging purposes are classified and recognised as follows: (a) Fair value hedge - If a derivative is designated as a hedge of exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or liability due to a specific risk that may affect profit or loss, the gain or loss deriving from the subsequent measurement of the fair value of the hedging instrument is taken to profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedged item, related to the hedged risk, changes the carrying amount of this item and is taken to profit or loss. (b) Cash flow hedge - If a derivative is designated as a hedge of exposure to changes in cash flows of an asset or liability or a highly probable transaction and could affect profit or loss, the effective part of the gains or losses on the financial instrument is taken to equity.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

The cumulative gain or loss is derecognised from equity and taken to profit or loss in the same period in which the hedged transaction is recognised. The gain or loss related to a hedge or part of a hedge which has become ineffective is taken to profit or loss immediately. If a hedging instrument or a hedging relationship is closed, but the hedged transaction has not yet taken place, the cumulative gains and losses, recognised in equity up to then, are reclassified to profit or loss when the transaction takes place. If it is unlikely the hedged transaction will take place, the unrealised gains and losses recognised in equity are immediately recognised in profit or loss. The scope of the hedge is assessed in strategic terms. When they do not meet the requirements of IAS 39 for hedge accounting, the derivatives are classified as “Financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss”.

Employee benefits • Short-term and long-term benefits Short-term employee benefits, that is, payable within twelve months of the end of the year in which the employees rendered the service, are recognised as a cost and as a liability for the undiscounted amount of benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service. Long-term benefits, such as remuneration to be paid after twelve months of the end of the year in which the employees rendered the 144 service, are recognised as liabilities for an amount equal to the present value of the benefits at the balance sheet date. • Post-employment benefits Post-employment benefits are recognised at the actuarial value of the group’s payable determined in line with ruling legislation and national and in-house labour agreements. The actuarial method, based on demographic, financial and turnover assumptions, is applied by independent actuaries. The related gains and losses are taken to profit or loss as costs or revenue. The 2007 finance act and related implementing decrees have introduced significant changes to legislation governing Italian post- employment benefits, effective as from 1 January 2007. These include the option given to the employee, to be exercised before 30 June 2007, of where to allocate its future benefits. Specifically, the employee could opt to allocate them to selected pension funds or maintain them with the company, in which case, the latter shall pay the entitlements to the treasury fund of the Italian Social Security Institution (“INPS”). Following these changes, the Italian post-employment benefits accruing after the date of the employees’ decision and, in any case, after 30 June 2007, are considered part of a defined contribution plan and treated like all other social security contributions. • Share-based payments The group has applied the standards set out in IFRS 2 - Share-based payment. In line with the treatments for first-time adoption, IFRS 2 has been applied to all stock options assigned after 7 November 2002 and not yet vested at 1 January 2005. Stock option plans for the subscription of new shares of the parent only cover the physical delivery of the shares issued for the related share capital increase at the exercise date in exchange for payment by the beneficiaries of the exercise price. Share-based payments are measured at fair value of the option at the grant date. This amount is recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. This treatment is based on an assessment of the stock options that will effectively vest in favour of the qualifying employees. Determination of fair value is based on the binomial method for the measurement of options. The useful life used in the model was adjusted in line with the measurement of the effects of the non-transferability of shares, restrictions to exercise rights and considerations about employee behaviour. Income taxes Current taxes are provided for using the tax rates and applying the tax laws ruling in Italy and other countries in which the group operates, based on the best estimate of the taxable profit for the year. Group companies net deferred tax assets and liabilities when this is legally allowed. Beginning from 2004, the parent Impregilo S.p.A. and certain of its Italian subsidiaries have joined the national tax consolidation system which is regulated by the conditions set out in agreements drawn up by the participating companies. The group’s overall tax position is shown in the consolidated financial statements after derecognising intragroup transactions deriving from the netting of taxable profits. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated on the basis of the temporary differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and their carrying amount in the balance sheet. Deferred tax assets are recognised when the group holds their recovery to be probable. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each year end and, to the extent necessary, is decreased when it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to use all or part of the related benefit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the 145 liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, respectively, and are netted at company level if related to taxes that may be compensated. If the balance is positive, it is recognised as “Deferred tax assets”, if not, as “Deferred tax liabilities”. In the case of transactions recognised directly in equity, the related deferred tax asset or liability also affects equity.

Provisions for contingencies and charges In accordance with IAS 37, the group makes accruals to provisions for risks and charges when the following conditions exist:

• the group or a group company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event where an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation;

• it is probable that the obligation (through an outflow of resources) will have to be settled;

• a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

When the time value is material and the obligation payment dates can be estimated reliably, the amount recognised as the provision equals the pre-tax future cash flows (ie, forecast outflows) discounted at a rate that reflects the present market value and risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision over time is taken to the income statement as a financial expense. When the expected cash flows are included in an estimate range with the same probability of occurrence, the median value is discounted to measure the liability. Provision for restructuring costs is made when the parent or relevant group company has approved a detailed formal plan that has been implemented and communicated to the third parties involved.

Translation criteria for foreign currency items and translation of financial statements of consolidated companies or companies measured using the equity method expressed in currencies other than the Euro The translation criteria for foreign currency items adopted by the group are as follows: • foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities, excluding property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and equity investments measured at cost, are measured at the closing spot rate with any exchange rate gains or losses taken to the income statement; • property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (non-monetary assets) are recognised at historic cost denominated in the foreign currency and translated using the historic exchange rate; • revenue and costs related to foreign currency transactions are recognised in profit or loss at the exchange rate ruling on the date of the transaction; • any material effects deriving from changes in exchange rates after the balance sheet date are disclosed in the notes. With respect to the translation of financial statements of consolidated companies or companies measured using the equity method and expressed in currencies other than the presentation currency (functional currency), reference should be made to the section on “Consolidation criteria”. 146

Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations Non-current assets (and disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Assets held for sale are recognised as such when one of the following events takes place: • signing of a binding sales agreement; • approval and communication of a formal sales plan by directors. In order to be correctly measured, the assets shall be: • available for immediate sale in their present condition; • subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets, and • the sale must be highly probable and expected to take place within twelve months. Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The results of discontinued operations are disclosed separately in the income statement. As required by IFRS 5.34 - Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations, the corresponding income statement figures presented for comparative purposes are restated accordingly.

Revenue recognition • Operating and other revenue Revenue is measured to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the group and the related amount can be reliably determined. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the group has shipped the goods and has transferred all the material risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. Revenue from construction contracts is recognised as provided for in the related Standard, described below. When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date based on the ratio between the costs incurred up to the balance sheet date and the total estimated contract costs, unless this is not held to represent the stage of completion of the contract. Changes in the contract, claims and incentive payments are recognised to the extent that they are reasonably certain. Revenue is recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. • Interest income Interest income is recognised on an accruals basis, considering the disbursed amount and applicable effective interest rate, ie, the rate that discounts the estimated future inflows over the expected life of the financial asset to return it to its carrying amount. • Dividends Dividends are recognised when the shareholders’ right to receive payment arises in line with local ruling legislation.

Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated as the ratio of the profit or loss for the year attributable to the holders of the ordinary shares of the parent 147 to the weighted number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are calculated considering the potential diluting effect of the shares to be allocated to the beneficiaries of vested stock options when calculating the number of outstanding shares.

Segment reporting The group’s primary segment reporting is by business segment followed by geographical segment. The segments in which the group operates and which are used for the primary segment are Construction, Engineering & Plant Construction, Concessions, USW Campania projects and Imprepar. The group’s management and organisational structure mainly reflects the primary segment by business activity. The group’s geographical sectors for the secondary segment reporting are: Europe, North America, Central and South America, Middle East ,Asia and Rest of the World. The operating activities are organised and managed by type of activity and by country (belonging to the geographical area). The inter-segment transfer prices related to the exchange of goods and services are agreed at normal market conditions. Reference should be made to the directors’ report for information on the performance of each segment.

Significant estimates Preparation of financial statements and the related notes in accordance with the IFRS requires management to make judgements and estimates that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and financial statements disclosures. The estimates are used to determine impairment of assets, amortisation and depreciation, employee benefits, taxes and provisions for risks and charges as well as to determine total contract costs and the related stage of completion. The actual results may differ from those estimated due to uncertainties underlying the assumptions and the conditions on which the estimates are based. A significant part of the group’s activities is typically performed on the basis of contracts which provide that a specific consideration is agreed when the contract is awarded. This implies that the profits on these contracts may undergo change compared to the original estimates depending on the recoverability of greater expenses and/or costs the group may incur during performance of such contracts.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Fundamental assumptions about the future and other reasons for uncertainty when making the estimates at the balance sheet date that may lead to material adjustments to the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities are described in the specific section of the directors’ report which gives an analysis of the risk areas of each segment.

Business combinations As mentioned in the directors’ report’s section on the Concessions segment, on 6 February 2008, through Primav Ecorodovias (35% held by the group), Impregilo group executed its acquisition of 100% of the Brazilian company Rodovias das Cataratas S.A., which subsequently changed its name to Ecocataratas. The following table summarises the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as shown in the company’s balance sheet at the acquisition date and the corresponding fair values determined for purchase price allocation (PPA) purposes (to the extent of the group’s investment):

(Euro/000) Carrying amount Fair value Cash and cash equivalents 2,353 2,353 Freely transferable assets 11,271 62,055 148 Other non-current liabilities, net (47) (47) Current portion of loans (3,973) (3,973) Other current liabilities, net (2,971) (2,971) Total 6,633 57,417

The fair value of freely transferable assets has been measured by discounting the expected future cash flows from the concession arrangement. The cash used for the acquisition of Ecocataratas, net of cash acquired, is set out below:

(Euro/000) Cash and cash equivalents 2,353 Freely transferable assets 62,055 Other non-current liabilities, net (47) Current portion of loans (3,973) Other current liabilities, net (2,971) Total 57,417 Less cash acquired (2,353) Cash used for the acquisition of Ecocataratas, net of cash acquired 55,064

The 2008 income statement includes the following results following the acquisition of Ecocataratas (to the extent of the group’s investment):

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

The most significant changes include: • increases of euro 49.2 million, mainly due to investments made for the foreign contracts of the Construction segment; • depreciation of euro 37.1 million, including euro 33.6 million relating to the Construction segment, euro 2.6 million to the Concessions segment and euro 0.9 million to the Engineering & Plant Construction segment; • impairment losses totalling euro 8.1 million, recognised on the following items of property, plant and equipment during the year: (i) assets previously used for the contract in Iceland, which the group can no longer use for other contracts, since their wear and tear exceeded expectations; (ii) property, plant and equipment of Caminos de Las Sierras fully impaired together with its other assets, as detailed in note 1.2. • disposals of euro 12.6 million, euro 10.7 million of which relating to the disposal of assets related to Construction segment contracts being wound up.

1.2 Freely transferable assets Freely transferable assets amount to euro 187.5 million. The gross and net carrying amounts are given in the following table: 150

Changes of the year are detailed in the following table:

31 December Increases Depreciation Impairment Reclassifications Exchange 31 December 2007 losses rate gains 2008 (Euro/000) (losses) Caminos de Las Sierras 14,170 427 (986) (13,619) - 8 - Parking Glasgow 12,783 - (427) - - (2,871) 9,485 Parcheggio Arezzo 10,154 - (371) - (9,783) - - Mercovia - Argentina 2,210 302 (144) - - (71) 2,297 Primav Ecorodovias - Brazil 147,905 88,378 (19,296) - - (41,312) 175,675 Total 187,222 89,107 (21,224) (13,619) (9,783) (44,246) 187,457

The increase for the year principally relates to the Brazilian company Primav Ecorodovias, due to the fair value gain on the concession acquired in February 2008, together with the investment in the concession company Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovias das Cataratas). The change recognised by Primav was largely due to the strong depreciation of the Brazilian currency against the Euro, which went from an exchange rate of 2.61 at the end of 2007 to 3.24 at the end of 2008, down by 24%, mainly in the last quarter of the year. The carrying amount of assets under concession held by the Argentine company Caminos de Las Sierras, which was affected by the impairment losses recognised in 2005 and 2006, was fully impaired together with the other items making up its invested capital, given the worsening of the concession company’s already unstable financial position due to the non-adjustment of tariffs, as described in the directors’ report’s section on the Concessions segment. Moreover, following the agreement reached with the Arezzo municipal authorities for a car park management concession, currently managed by Imprepar, the group reclassified the carrying amount of part of such assets to current assets (real estate projects of euro 3.5 million) and recognised the grant of euro 6.3 million approved by the Tuscany regional authorities pursuant to the “Tognoli” law as a direct reduction in freely transferable assets (net of the discounting effect).

1.3 Intangible assets Intangible assets amount to euro 51.6 million, slightly down from the 31 December 2007 figure. The gross and net balances are given in the following table:

Contract acquisition costs include considerations paid by the parent to purchase the railway high speed/capacity business units in previous years. These assets have a finite life and are amortised in line with the stage of completion of the related contracts. The balance is as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2007 Amortisation 31 December 2008 Cavet (Florence - Bologna railway line) 517 (300) 217 Cavtomi (Turin - Milan railway line) 5,429 (2,517) 2,912 Cociv (Milan-Genoa railway line) 46,474 - 46,474 Total 52,420 (2,817) 49,603

Amortisation of the contract acquisition costs for the high capacity business units is calculated using the stage of completion method of the contracts based on the cost to cost method and considering the related purchase dates.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Amortisation of the acquisition costs for the Milan-Genoa railway line contract has not yet started as the related works have not commenced. Assets recognised at year end are deemed to be recoverable either through the ongoing arbitration proceeding for the customer’s contractual non-compliance or re-commencement of the related works. Reference should be made to the second part of the directors’ report for more information on Consorzio Cociv’s specific position.

1.4 Goodwill Goodwill amounts to euro 58.9 million, unchanged from 31 December 2007, and relates to the following cash-generating units:

(Euro/000) Business Unit 31 December 2008 FISIA Babcock Engineering & Plant Construction 11,875 FISIA Italimpianti Engineering & Plant Construction 14,230 Shangai Pucheng Concessions 18,515 Primav Ecorodovias Concessions 14,270 Total 58,890 152 The FISIA Italimpianti balance includes euro 10.9 million generated by the purchase of 49% of FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A. by the parent on 21 December 2005 from Equinox Investment Company S.c.p.a. for euro 68.5 million. The residual euro 3.3 million is the goodwill that arose on the merger of FISIA Partecipazioni into FISIA carried out before 2004. The Primav Ecorodovias balance is the result of its consolidation using the proportionate method (the investment in this Brazilian concession company is held by Impregilo International Infrastructures). The FISIA Babcock and Shangai Pucheng balances arose from the acquisitions from third parties of the related investments and business units in previous years. As required by IAS 36, goodwill, being an intangible asset with an indefinite life, is not amortised systematically but is subject to impairment testing at least annually. The impairment test is carried out by estimating its recoverable amount, value in use and the future cash flows that the related cash-generating unit will generate.

In order to calculate value in use, the relevant pre-tax cash flows have been discounted using the following rates:

31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Growth rate Discount rate Growth rate Discount rate Fisia Babcock 2.00% 10.90% 2.00% 9.70% Fisia Italimpianti 2.00% 11.70% 2.00% 9.70% Shangai Pucheng n.a (*) 5.90% n.a (*) 8.75% Primav Ecorodovias n.a (*) 12.92% n.a (*) 9.07%

(*) The growth rates are those set out in the concession’s financial plans included in the agreements with the concession grantor. The expected future cash flows were estimated by management on the basis of past experience and expected future market trends.

Expected cash flows are based on the following:

(i) with reference to FISIA Babcock and FISIA Italimpianti, the forecasts included in the 2009-2011 business plans and the terminal value estimated using the growth rates set out in the previous table;

(ii) with reference to Shangai Pucheng, the forecasts included in the business plan, which has been drawn up based on the agreement with the local government which expires in 2033. This agreement allows a reliable estimate of the future cash flows based on stable rates and business volumes, with a slight decrease due to the wear and tear of plant over time. The terminal value has been estimated as the carrying amount of current assets and liabilities at the end of 2033, since the agreement provides that they will be paid at the expiry date;

(iii) with reference to Primav, the forecasts based on the existing concession contracts and estimated traffic volumes over their term.

Given the current overall market crisis, the group has performed a sensitivity analysis, considering the potential effects of changes in the 153 reference variables:

• discount rates, for all cash-generating units, since they are caused by conditions that the group cannot control;

• growth rates, with particular reference to FISIA Italimpianti, considering the recent events affecting the company. For the other cash- generating units, expected future cash flows are sufficiently ensured by the existing contracts with their customers and the conditions of the markets in which they operate.

The recoverable value determined as above, also considering the sensitivity analysis described above, was greater than the related carrying amounts of all the cash-generating units detailed above and, therefore, no impairment losses were recognised.

1.5 Equity investments Investments in associates and other companies amount to euro 24.0 million, almost unchanged from 31 December 2007. Available-for- sale financial assets decreased by euro 7.6 million to euro 8.9 million.

154 No significant events occurred during the year with reference to the Argentine associates Puentes de Litoral and Aguas del Gran Buenos Aires such as to require revision of the assessments made in previous years, which are described in the notes to those previous year annual financial statements. Information on the term of the concession agreements is set out in the directors’ report, in the section on the relevant business segment. “Available-for-sale financial assets” relate to the investment in the listed company Mediterranea delle Acque which is measured at fair value at euro 8.9 million (euro 16.5 million at 31 December 2007). The euro 7.6 million loss has been recognised in the related equity reserve. The December 2008 average market price has been used to calculate the fair value of this asset. Following an accurate assessment of this fair value loss, the group holds that it does not reflect an impairment loss.

The decrease in “Investments in associates and other companies” is summarised in the following table:

Change in consolidation method 7,478 Acquisitions/disinvestments 4,712 Share of profit or loss of associates (8,098) Dividends from associates and other investees (2,387) Change in translation reserve of associates (2,714) Total (1,009)

The group’s share of profit or loss of associates, which, as detailed in note 14.2 was a loss of euro 12.0 million, affected the caption “Investments in associates and other companies” to the extent of the carrying amount of such investments, which was positive at the reporting date, for euro 8.1 million. The residual loss of euro 3.9 million refers to investments with a negative carrying amount, which has been therefore recognised in the “Provision for risks on investments” (see note 3). The group’s share of profit or loss of associates also includes the cancellation of the remaining carrying amount of euro 9.9 million of the 50.71%investment in Impresit Bakolori P.l.c. (Nigeria) in the last few months of 2008. This company was excluded from the consolidation scope due to the significant worsening in the general stability of the area in which it operates. As a result, the group was unable to control the subsidiary’s operations and management, as it had done regularly in previous years.

2. Assets (liabilities) classified as held for sale Net non-current assets classified as held for sale may be analysed as follows:

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

The USW Campania projects’ increase is due to continuation of works at the Acerra waste-to-energy plant. The current liabilities associated with the above-mentioned assets relate to advances received from the commissioner. During the first half of the year, the group executed the sale of the investment in the Brazilian concession company Ponte de Pedra S.A., which had already been classified as held for sale at 31 December 2007 as required by IFRS 5. The net consideration of roughly euro 109 million led to a net gain for the group of euro 67.5 million, which has been recognised in profit or loss under “Gains (losses) on investments”.

3. Provisions for risks and charges The provisions for risks and charges amount to euro 177.9 million at year end, as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Provisions for risks on investments 16,492 11,020 5,472 Other provisions 161,393 187,518 (26,125) Total 177,885 198,538 (20,653)

156 The provisions for risks on investments relate to expected impairment losses on investments in associates for the part that exceeds their carrying amount. Changes in these provisions are detailed below:

Acquisitions/disinvestments (102) Share of profit or loss of equity-accounted investees 3,943 Dividends from associates and other investees 323 Other changes, including change in translation reserve 1,308 Total 5,472

Other provisions are comprised as follows:

The euro 26.1 million decrease over 31 December 2007 is summarised in the following table:

31 December Accrual Utilisation Other Exchange Other 31 December 2007 on P&L Utilisation rate gains changes 2008 (Euro/000) (losses) Total other provisions 187,518 14,091 (28,651) (3,353) (947) (7,265) 161,393 Changes of the year comprise:

(i) the euro 14.1 million accrual mainly relating to Imprepar (euro 5.0 million), the Construction segment (euro 3.6 million), the Concessions segment (euro 3.5 million, especially in relation to Caminos de la Sierras) and the Engineering & Plant Construction segment (euro 2.0 million);

(ii) utilisations of euro 28.6 million, including euro 16.6 million used against the risks for which they had been accrued and euro 12.0 million for the difference between estimates made in previous years and settlement of the litigation which had led to the recognition of the provisions. This item mainly relates to contracts of the Construction segment (euro 20.1 million) and ongoing litigation on old contracts of Imprepar (euro 3.7 million).

The change in consolidation scope relates to the 31 December 2007 carrying amount of the provision for risks recognised in the separate financial statements of Impresit Bakalori. Following the latter’s exit from consolidation, the item has been eliminated.

The provisions for the USW Campania projects include the estimated costs and a prudent estimate of the risks relating to pending litigation based on information currently available. Reference should be made to the relevant section of the directors’ report for additional information. 157 The provisions set up by Imprepar and its subsidiaries include accruals made for probable future charges related to the closing of contracts and effects of ongoing litigation.

The provision for ongoing litigation refers to disputes involving Impregilo and certain of its subsidiaries.

“Building and Services segment litigation” relates to provisions for risks and charges previously accrued by Impregilo Edilizia e Servizi, which was merged into Impregilo S.p.A. in 2007. The utilisations for the year principally relate to a number of disputes nearing settlement for the Greek branch and Arabian branch.

The provision for environmental risks, set up by FISIA Italimpianti and FISIA Babcock, mainly relates to the management of the Fossano landfill for future charges related to the closing and post-closing activities.

“Other” comprises accruals for sundry litigation (including of a tax nature), for Italian and foreign group companies.

During 2008, the parent commenced a dispute with the Milan tax office about an assessment challenging the tax treatment of impairment losses and losses in 2003 of certain investments held by the parent in that year. The most significant issue relates to the parent’s sale of its entire investment in the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. to Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. in 2003.

The parent has challenged the unlawfulness of the criteria adopted by the tax office to determine the “normal value” of the sale. The office redetermined the alleged transfer value using the consideration paid by third parties which acquired the concession company in 2006 as a basis, limiting itself to discounting this consideration over the period from the sales date in 2006 to the date of the previous transfer from Impregilo to Impregilo International Infrastructures. This is to demonstrate the greater tax that it claims should have been paid. Before the dispute was commenced, Impregilo had fully demonstrated with the related documentation the correctness of the method adopted in 2003, which had, moreover, been approved by an independent appraisal at the time of the sale. However, the tax office had not considered this documentation. At the date of the original sale, the Chilean concession company was still “constructing” its infrastructure and had only just commenced (without having completed) the activities aimed at obtaining financing to complete these works. During the preliminary stage of the dispute, Impregilo obtained a new, independent appraisal of the disputed transfer price to support its calculation. This was prepared

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

by a leading international advisory firm. It also informed the tax office that another investment in the Chilean concession company, then held by SIMEST S.p.A., a state-owned company, had also been transferred to Impregilo International Infrastructures in April 2004 for a substantially equal consideration (given the different investment percentages) to that being disputed. Despite these arguments, the local commission (first level) rejected Impregilo’s case without specifying why, fully accepting the tax office’s claims and ordering the company to pay the assessed tax, interest and fines of approximately euro 52 million. This measure was appealed against before the second level court. The lawyers assisting the parent agree with it, as already stated in 2007 when the dispute was commenced, that there are valid reasons to hold that the greater tax imposed by the tax office is unlawful, deeming that the unfavourable first level ruling was deficient in terms of the reasoning, based moreover on illegitimate arguments and without objective grounds. Therefore, Impregilo has not made any provision therefor either in its separate or consolidated financial statements.

4. Post-employment benefits and employee benefits At 31 December 2008, the group’s liability due to all its employees determined using the criteria set out in IAS 19 is euro 33.4 million. An independent actuary performed the actuarial valuation of the post-employment benefits, which are the largest component of this item. 158 The actuarial valuation was based on the following rates: • turnover rate 8%; • discount rate 4.5%; • advance payment rate 2%; • inflation rate 2%.

Changes in the provision are as follows:

31 December Accrual Payments Contributions paid Other December 2007 to INPS treasury changes 2008 (Euro/000) and other funds Post-employment benefits and employee benefits 36,417 18,321 (18,123) (3,701) 505 33,419

5. Other non-current assets (liabilities) and non-current receivables due from associates These items include:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Non-current receivables due from associates 17,700 19,210 (1,510) Other non-current assets 57,777 64,084 (6,307) Other non-current liabilities (10,443) (21,921) 11,478 Total 65,034 61,373 3,661

Non-current receivables due from associates at year end (euro 17.7 million) are substantially in line with the previous year.They relate to amounts due from associates, including the English Ochre Holding (Concessions segment) of euro 5.7 million, the Swiss consortium CMC 851 (Construction segment) of euro 4.5 million, the joint venture Iris Terna (in which Impregilo holds an investment through its Greek branch) of euro 3.7 million and the joint venture Linea metropolitana 3 (in which Impregilo holds an investment through its Greek branch) of euro 1.3 million. Other non-current assets amount to euro 57.8 million, down euro 6.3 million on the 31 December 2007 balance. The item mainly consists of financial and other receivables of the Imprepar segment as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Imprepar and its subsidiaries 51,981 57,877 (5,896) Caminos - 3,019 (3,019) Primav 1,047 1,186 (139) Vegas Tunnel 3,233 - 3,233 Other 1,516 2,002 (486) Total 57,777 64,084 (6,307)

The decrease is mainly due to the reclassification of the euro 6.7 million balance relating to Imprepar, which includes work in progress, trade receivables and other receivables due within one year, in line with the related liquidation plan, to other current assets. The items relate 159 to both Italian and foreign customers. Other non-current liabilities amount to euro 10.4 million, down euro 11.5 million on 31 December 2007 balance, as shown in the following table:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Other non-current payables to third parties 1,034 18,139 (17,105) Financial payables to third parties 510 511 (1) Payables to employees 1,239 894 345 Payables to state bodies 7,660 2,377 5,283 Total 10,443 21,921 (11,478)

The decrease in other non-current liabilities of euro 11.5 million mainly relates to the payable due by Primav Ecorodovias group companies to the concession grantors. This caption has been reclassified from “Other non-current payables to third parties (31 December 2007) to “Payables to state bodies” (31 December 2008).

6. Net tax assets Net tax assets total euro 224.2 million at 31 December 2008, down euro 47.6 million on 31 December 2007, as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Deferred tax assets 64,104 74,893 (10,789) Current tax assets 237,362 261,744 (24,382) Deferred tax liabilities (16,954) (10,706) (6,248) Current tax liabilities (60,264) (54,117) (6,147) Total 224,248 271,814 (47,566)

Deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities when offsetting is permitted, total euro 64.1 million, down euro 10.8 million on 31 December 2007. Deferred tax liabilities amount to euro 17.0 million, up euro 6.2 million on the previous year end. Details on the related changes are given in note 15.

Current tax assets decreased by euro 24.4 million to euro 237.4 million at 31 December 2008 as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change VAT 102,371 130,654 (28,283) Other Italian indirect taxes 9,210 1,947 7,263 Foreign indirect taxes 5,437 3,696 1,741 Direct taxes 87,020 72,549 14,471 IRAP 3,946 4,877 (931) Other Italian direct taxes 2,356 14,783 (12,427) Foreign direct taxes 15,706 18,400 (2,694) 160 Tax credits and withholdings 11,135 14,482 (3,347) Other 181 356 (175) Total 237,362 261,744 (24,382)

Impregilo group factored part of its VAT and IRPEG receivables with recourse to leading factoring companies in 2007. The amount involved totalled euro 101.4 million (including VAT and IRPEG receivables of euro 61.3 million and euro 40.1 million, respectively). The group collected euro 35.0 million of that amount relating to VAT claimed for reimbursement by the CA.V.TO.MI. consortium in 2003 and 2004.

Current tax liabilities of euro 60.3 million rose euro 6.1 million over 31 December 2007. They may be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change IRES 6,074 2,364 3,710 IRAP 2,229 3,462 (1,233) Foreign taxes 15,579 32,172 (16,593) Withholdings 1,354 884 470 VAT 26,036 7,720 18,316 Foreign indirect taxes 547 651 (104) Withholdings applied in Italy 4,272 5,224 (952) Other 4,173 1,640 2,533 Total 60,264 54,117 6,147 7.

7.1.1 Real estate projects Real estate projects amount to euro 16.2 million, up by euro 2.2 million from 31 December 2007. The year-end balance mainly relates to the real estate project of euro 11.5 million (net of the related provision of euro 7.8 million) for the construction of a factory outlet. This project has been delayed since the relevant municipality has not yet implemented the measures necessary to start the works, as mentioned in the notes to the 2007 consolidated financial statements. The increase is due to the reclassification of the Arezzo car park by Imprepar (euro 2.2 million, net of the provision of euro 1.3 million) from freely transferable assets to real estate projects, following the agreement reached with the Arezzo municipal authorities for the park’s management, currently carried out by Imprepar.

The increase in the Construction segment, is due to the completion of the works relating to the Icelandic branch, in addition to the progress of the contracts in Venezuela and the Salerno-Reggio Calabria motorway. Contact work in progress of the Engineering & Plant Construction segment mainly relates to the Qatar and United Arab Emirates desalination plant, with respect to which reference is made to the relevant section in the directors’ report. The item “Imprepar” relates to contracts being wound up.

7.3 Advances on contract work in progress The item “Advances on contract work in progress” included in “Current liabilities” amounts to euro 713.1 million, down euro 63.5 million on the figure at 31 December 2007. It comprises:

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Risk management Impregilo group is exposed to financial risks, including the following: • market risk deriving from the group’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations, exchange rate fluctuations and, with respect to the Engineering & Plant Construction Segment, commodity price volatility; • credit risk deriving from the group’s exposure to potential losses arising from the customers’ non-compliance with their obligations; • liquidity risk deriving from the risk that the financial resources necessary to meet obligations may not be available at the agreed terms and deadlines.

Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk (commodities and, to a lesser extent, stock prices).

186 Currency risk The group’s international presence entails its exposure to the risk of fluctuations in exchange rates of the Euro and the currencies of the various countries in which it operates. Currency risk at 31 December 2008 mainly related to the following currencies: • Dollar (United States) • Real (Brazil) • Naira (Nigeria) • Krona (Iceland) • Peso (Argentina) • Peso (Santo Domingo) • Bolivar (Venezuela)

The group’s currency risk management strategy is essentially based on the following policies: • agreement of contractual considerations for works and projects in countries with weak currencies using a primarily multi-currency format, in which only a portion of the consideration is expressed in local currency; • use of portions of the contractual considerations in local currency mainly to cover project expenses to be incurred in that currency; • analysis of exposure in US dollars on a cumulative and prospective basis with consistent deadlines and setting up forward transactions in the same currency to hedge the group’s net exposure at those deadlines. Adoption of the above-mentioned policies has contained the group’s exposure to currency risk, which only relates to the USD and VEB. Had the Euro appreciated or depreciated by 5% against the USD at year end, the consolidated profit for the year would have been respectively greater or lower by euro 1.5 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant, mainly due to exchange rate losses (gains) arising from the adjustment of net liabilities in USD. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 0.7 million decrease (or increase in the case of depreciation) in the consolidated profit for the year. Had the Euro appreciated or depreciated by 5% against the VEB at year end, the consolidated profit for the year would have been respectively lower or greater by euro 2.8 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant, mainly due to exchange rate losses (gains) arising from the adjustment of net assets in VEB. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 0.9 million decrease (or increase in the case of depreciation) in the consolidated profit for the year.

Other price risk The group’s results are affected by fluctuations in the price of metals used in production solely in the Engineering & Plant Construction segment. Against this risk, the subsidiary FISIA carries out hedging transactions through forward purchase agreements which enables it to fix the purchase price of semi-finished products in nickel, copper and zinc in advance with respect to the actual need. Such transactions qualify as fair value hedges and the related fair values are assessed using appropriate methods. Had nickel, copper and zinc prices increased or decreased at both year ends, the consolidated profit for the years would have not changed significantly since the relevant hedging instruments are highly effective. 187

Interest rate risk Impregilo group has adopted a combined strategy of streamlining group operations by disposing of non-strategic assets, containing debt and hedging interest rate risks on a portion of the medium/long-term structured loans through interest rate swaps (IRSs). The financial risks arising from market interest rate fluctuations to which the company is potentially exposed and which are monitored by the relevant company personnel relate to medium/long-term financial payables bearing variable rates. Such risk is mitigated by interest accrued on short-term investments of liquidity available at the Italian-based consortia and consortium companies and foreign subsidiaries, which are used to support the group’s operations. Had interest rates increased (or decreased) by 50 basis points at year end, the consolidated profit for the year would have been respectively greater or lower by euro 0.9 million and consolidated equity by euro 1.5 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 1.4 million increase (or euro1.5 million decrease) in consolidated equity and a euro 0.5 million increase (or decrease) in the consolidated profit for the year, assuming that all other variables remained constant.

Credit risk Credit risk is that deriving from the group’s exposure to potential losses arising from the customers’ (which are mostly governments or state bodies) non-compliance with their obligations. Management of this risk is complex, starting as early as the assessment of offers, through a careful analysis of the characteristics of the countries in which the group’s activities should be carried out and the customers requesting an offer, which are usually state or similar bodies.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Therefore, this risk can be essentially assimilated to country risk. An analysis of this risk based on the age of the outstanding amounts is not very meaningful, since the receivables should be assessed together with the other working capital items, especially those reflecting the net exposure to customers (positive and negative work in progress, advances and payments on account) in relation to contract work in progress as a whole.

A breakdown of working capital by country, as shown in the section on “Segment reporting”, is set out below:

(Euro/000) Working capital by country 31-12-2008 31-12-2007 Italy (471,551) (737,844) Other EU countries 193,629 297,820 Other non-EU countries (15,878) 52,890 Central and South America 174,114 239,347 Other and eliminations (36,982) (158,815) Total (156,668) (306,602) 188

The group’s exposure to customers, broken down by contract location, is analysed below:

Liquidity risk Liquidity risk derives from the risk that the financial resources necessary to meet obligations may not be available to the group at the agreed terms and deadlines. The group’s strategy aims at ensuring that each ongoing contract is financially independent. This strategy is strictly monitored centrally. A breakdown of financial liabilities by due date (based on undiscounted future cash flows) is set out below:

(Euro/000) 31-12-2009 31-12-2010 31-12-2013 After Total Current account facilities 160,868 - - - 160,868 Bonds 6,811 21,007 49,550 9,439 86,807 Bank and other loans 365,079 148,395 130,010 19,415 662,899 Other financial liabilities 42,355 4,315 3,729 - 50,399 Finance lease payables 34 - - - 34 Derivatives 7,168 - - - 7,168 Gross financial liabilities 582,315 173,717 183,289 28,854 968,175 Trade payables 1,167,234 1,167,234 Total payables 1,749,549 173,717 183,289 28,854 2,135,409

The corresponding figures of the previous year are set out below for comparative purposes.

Future interest has been estimated based on the market interest rates at the date of preparation of these financial statements summarised in the notes. Liquidity risk management is mainly based on containing debt and maintaining a balanced financial position. This strategy is pursued by each of the group’s operating units. Financial and trade payables falling due before 31 March 2009 are compared with the cash and cash equivalents that can be used to meet such obligations in the table below:

Total financial and trade Cash and cash Difference payables and falling equivalents (Euro/00) due before 31 March 2009 Impregilo S.p.A. (245,628) 128,692 (116,936) Subsidiaries (429,742) 289,855 (139,887) SPEs (280,216) 405,437 125,221 Companies in liquidation (13,510) 115,044 101,534 Total (969,096) 939,028 (30,068)

The difference shown above is the “worse case scenario” occurring should all short-term credit lines without due dates be requested for repayment by lenders. In this respect: • at the date of preparation of these financial statements, the group has received no requests for early termination or immediate repayment of the above credit lines, nor are such requests expected in the next few months; • all asset items are expected to be collected.

12. Revenue Revenue for 2008 amounts to euro 2,957.6 million, up 12.6% on the corresponding figure of the previous year:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Revenue - goods and services 1,972,679 1,725,872 246,807 14.3% Change in work in progress, semi-finished products and finished products and real estate projects (1,331) (2,381) 1,050 (44.1%) Change in contract work in progress 895,700 806,915 88,785 11.0% Total operating revenue 2,867,048 2,530,406 336,642 13.3% Other revenue and income 90,596 96,497 (5,901) (6.1%) Total 2,957,644 2,626,903 330,741 12.6%

190 The change in contract work in progress includes contractual revenue deriving from production carried out during the year measured using the cost to cost method. Reference should be made to the note on work in progress for a breakdown of contract work in progress and related changes during the year.

A breakdown of operating revenue by business segment is given in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Construction 1,722,269 1,523,943 198,326 13.0% Engineering & Plant Construction 975,218 837,727 137,491 16.4% Concessions 163,771 151,347 12,424 8.2% Other 5,790 17,389 (11,599) (66.7%) Total 2,867,048 2,530,406 336,642 13.3%

A breakdown of other revenue is given in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Cost recoveries 26,035 34,076 (8,041) (23.6%) Rent and leases 925 3,309 (2,384) (72.0%) Gains on disposals of property, plant and equipment 16,189 13,528 2,661 19.7% Prior year income 31,664 32,919 (1,255) (3.8%) Utilisations of provisions for risks 20 582 (562) (96.6%) Other 15,763 12,083 3,680 30.5% Total 90,596 96,497 (5,901) (6.1%)

The 2007 “Cost recoveries” item included insurance compensation of approximately euro 12 million. 13. Costs 13.1 Raw materials and consumables The cost of raw materials and consumables amounts to euro 744.1 million, incurred in 2008 increased by euro 108.2 million compared to the corresponding figure of the previous year:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Purchases of raw materials and consumables 737,951 25.0% 637,808 24.3% 100,143 Change in raw materials and consumables 6,186 0.2% (1,911) (0.1%) 8,097 Total 744,137 25.2% 635,897 24.2% 108,240

The rise in costs for raw materials is mainly due to the combined effect of: • net increase seen for projects carried out by the Engineering & Plant Construction segment of euro 152.8 million, directly related to the rise in business volumes in that segment; • net decrease for the Construction segment of euro 45.5 million due to the reduction for a number of contracts currently being finalised, partly offset by increases seen for new projects such as certain contracts in Venezuela and for the upgrading of the Salerno-Reggio Calabria motorway. 191

13.2 Subcontracts Costs of subcontracts increased to euro 707.7 million, up euro 112.6 million on the corresponding figure of the previous year, as shown in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Subcontracts 707,697 23.9% 595,068 22.7% 112,629

The change is mainly due to the upturn for the Construction and Engineering & Plant Construction segments (euro 101.3 million and euro 10.1 million, respectively).

13.3 Other operating expenses In 2008, other operating expenses rose to euro 905.8 million, up euro 85.2 million on the corresponding figure of the previous year, as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Consultancy and technical services 343,228 11.6% 355,864 13.5% (12,636) Fees to directors, statutory auditors and independent auditors 5,345 0.2% 8,188 0.3% (2,843) Maintenance 10,302 0.3% 13,722 0.5% (3,420) Transportation and freight 53,804 1.8% 53,290 2.0% 514 Insurance 29,563 1.0% 25,526 1.0% 4,037 Recharges and allocation of costs from consortia and joint ventures 299,892 10.1% 187,441 7.1% 112,451 Rent and leases 46,336 1.6% 53,418 2.0% (7,082) Concessions costs - - 69 - (69) Other operating expenses 100,431 3.4% 106,993 4.1% (6,562) Prior year losses 12,645 0.4% 13,298 0.5% (653) Losses on disposal of assets 4,204 0.1% 2,705 0.1% 1,499 Total 905,750 30.6% 820,514 31.2% 85,236

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

“Consultancy and technical services” mainly consist of costs for the design and construction work carried out by the special purpose entities. These costs are broken down in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Design and engineering services 296,110 10.0% 294,281 11.2% 1,829 Testing 1,715 0.1% 1,269 - 446 Construction 21,505 0.7% 30,872 1.2% (9,367) Administrative, legal and other services 23,898 0,8% 29,442 1.1% (5,544) Total 343,228 11.6% 355,864 13.5% (12,636)

“Recharges and allocation of costs from consortia and joint ventures” comprise all costs that unconsolidated consortia and joint ventures allocate to the parent. The increase over the previous year is mainly due to Consorzio OIV Tocoma in Venezuela and the other Brazilian contracts, Rio Tocantis and Serra do Mar, whose works had not yet started in 2007. The decrease of “Consultancy and other technical services” is mainly due to the reduction in construction work and administrative and legal

192 services. Fees to the independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers S.p.A, and other companies of its network for 2008 are detailed as follows:

(Euro/000) Fees Audit Impregilo S.p.A. 648 Audit Subsidiaries 748 Total audit 1,396 Tax assistance Impregilo S.p.A. 29 Tax assistance Subsidiaries 180 Total tax assistance 209 Other services Other services Impregilo S.p.A. 20 Other services Subsidiaries 25 Total other services 45 Total 1,650

13.4 Personnel expenses Personnel expenses for 2008 amount to euro 327.7 million, down by euro 21.2 million on 2007. The item is made up as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Wages and salaries 215,359 7.3% 236,238 9.0% (20,879) Social security and pension charges 56,005 1.9% 65,334 2.5% (9,329) Accrual to post-employment benefits 18,321 0.6% 13,460 0.5% 4,861 Other personnel expenses 37,988 1.3% 33,891 1.3% 4,097 Total 327,673 11.1% 348,923 13.3% (21,250) The euro 21.2 million decrease is due to finalisation of work on certain foreign (Iceland and Switzerland) and Italian (high speed) contracts, partly offset by the new projects in Venezuela. The new contracts of the Engineering & Plant Construction segment did not significantly affect operating personnel expenses, since works at the building sites were mainly subcontracted. Other personnel expenses principally relate to repayments of travel expenses.

13.5 Amortisation, depreciation, provisions and impairment losses This item of euro 83.3 million shows a decrease on the previous year figure of euro 95.3 million. It may be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Accrual to the provision for bad debts 5,234 0.2% 7,597 0.3% (2,363) Accrual to the provision for risks 14,091 0.5% 76,292 2.9% (62,201) Impaiment losses 16,392 0.6% (24,503) (0.9%) 40,895 Release of excess provisions (13,893) (0.5%) (27,307) (1.0%) 13,414 Total provisions and impairment losses 21,824 0.7% 32,079 1.2% (10,255) Amortisation of intangible assets 3,164 0.1% 5,246 0.2% (2,082) 193 Depreciation of property, plant and equipment 37,093 1.3% 41,939 1.6% (4,846) Depreciation of freely transferable assets 21,224 0.7% 16,045 0.6% 5,179 Total amortisation and depreciation 61,481 2.1% 63,230 2.4% (1,749) Total 83,305 2.8% 95,309 3.6% (12,004)

The previous year balance included a non-recurring euro 50.0 million accrual made for risks related to the ongoing prosecution for the USW Campania projects. Reference should be made to the relevant section of the directors’ report for further information on this issue. The item “Accrual to the provision for risks” relates to an updated estimate of the risk of losing the pending cases or the recoverable amount of receivables at the reporting date. “Release of excess provisions” mainly relates to the release of the excess provisions for bad debts and risks compared to estimates or because the risk for which the provision had been made never arose.

14. Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments came to a negative euro 4.6 million in 2008, compared to a positive euro 3.4 million in 2007.

The item may be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Net financing costs (60,533) (9,831) (50,702) Net gains on investments 55,912 13,235 42,677 Total (4,621) 3,404 (8,025)

Reference should be made to note 8 “Equity”, for information on the reclassification of the hedging reserve to profit or loss and its changes during the year. Net financing costs were the results of many effects, the more significant of which are summarised below: (a) Total net financial expense totalled euro 70.5 million (euro 40.3 million). The euro 30.2 million rise over the previous year is mainly due to certain South American markets, where interest rates jumped and so did the group’s debt. In this context, the interest accrued on the loan of Primav Ecorodovias taken on to acquire the concession company Ecocataratas (formerly Rodovias das Cataratas) rose by approximately euro 10 million over the previous year. In addition, the short-term debt in Venezuela temporarily increased as a result of a number of delays in payments of progress billings by state-owned customers, for works duly approved. The delays, which started to be recovered in the last few months of 2008 and first few months of 2009, led to an increase in local currency exposure, which was accompanied by a rise in interest rates (the nominal interest rates in Venezuela doubled from the end of 2007 to the end of 2008), leading to greater financial expense of roughly euro 20.0 million with respect to the previous year. (b) Net exchange rate losses, including fair value gains on financial instruments, totalled euro 26.9 million (net exchange rate gains of euro 5.1 million). Their analysis by underlying foreign currency and conditions is as follows: - the Construction segment recognised net exchange rate losses of euro 9.7 million in Venezuela. This is basically due to the local customers’ failure to exercise their right to pay progress billings in US dollars, as contractually provided for and in their favour, rather than the local currency (Bolivar). They had continuously availed of this option in previous years for almost all contractual components expressed in the local currency and the related receivables were assessed on this basis at the end of the previous year; - the Engineering & Plant Construction segment recorded net exchange rate losses of euro 13.7 million in the Persian Gulf area, mainly arising from local currencies, principally tied to the US dollar, as well as the US dollar itself. Despite their not meeting the hedging requirement established by IFRS, the derivatives entered into by the group hedging currency risks on contract revenue are substantially effective. The exchange rate losses classified as financing costs arising from the adjustments of the expected contract performance to current rates have been substantially offset by the performance of the relevant derivatives; - the group realised net exchange rate losses of euro 3.5 million on weak and/or limited circulation currencies, such as those for Brazil, Iceland, Tunisia and Nigeria. Hedges cannot be agreed for such exchange rate risks at reasonable conditions. (c) A decrease of euro 4.4 million in gains on the sale of securities. In 2007, these gains were realised on the management of payments made by customers in currencies other than those contractually provided for, whereas in 2008, these gains were realised by directly financing certain foreign operating branches of the parent using own funds. The group took advantage of the currency mismatches of money markets for certain South American currencies, whose official exchange rates with some strong currencies, including the US dollar, are fixed artificially. 195 (d) The collection of a number of default interest receivables by the Engineering & Plant Construction and the Construction segments, which had been fully impaired in previous years. This led to an approximate euro 7.6 million increase over the previous year (euro 8.2 million in 2008 compared to euro 0.6 million in 2007). (e) A reduction in bank charges and commissions on guarantees of euro 1.7 million and the overall decrease in other financial expense (losses on the disposal of financial assets and other income and expense) of euro 6.6 million over 2007.

14.2 Gains (losses) on investments Net gains on investments amount to euro 55.9 million in 2008, compared to euro 13.2 million in 2007, as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Profit or loss of associates (12,041) 4,875 (16,916) Dividends 561 203 358 Gains on the sale of investments 67,492 7,005 60,487 Other gains (losses) on investments and profits (losses) of joint ventures (100) 1,152 (1,252) Total 55,912 13,235 42,677

Net gains on investments are mainly due to the following: • the sale of the group’s investment in the Brazilian concession company Ponte de Pedra S.A., finalised in April 2008, which generated a net gain of euro 67.5 million; • the cancellation of the remaining carrying amount of euro 9.9 million of the 50.71% investment in Impresit Bakolori P.l.c. (Nigeria) in the last few months of 2008. This company was excluded from the consolidation scope due to the significant worsening in the general stability of the area in which it operated. As a result, the group was unable to control the operations and management of the subsidiary, as it had done regularly in previous years.

The overall loss of associates of euro 12.0 million is broken down in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Ponte de Pedra - 5,149 (5,149) Yacilec 1,385 1,401 (16) Varie Iglys 49 706 (657) Agua Azul 252 575 (323) Impresit Bakolori (9,877) - (9,877) Other (3,850) (2,956) (894) Total (12,041) 4,875 (16,916)

“Other” mainly relates to investments held by Imprepar.

15. Income tax expense 196 The group’s income tax expense for the year is euro 52.5 million as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Current taxes 34,178 39,224 (5,046) Net deferred tax expense 17,424 27,195 (9,771) Prior year taxes (5,597) (12,434) 6,837 Total 46,005 53,985 (7,980) IRAP 6,531 9,728 (3,197) Total 52,536 63,713 (11,177)

An analysis and reconciliation of the theoretical income tax rate, calculated under Italian tax legislation, and the effective tax rate are set out below:

Income tax expense (Euro/m) % Profit before tax 184.5 Theoretical tax expense 50.7 27.5% Tax effect of permanent differences 7.1 3.8% Greater tax rate of foreign consolidated companies 5.6 3.0% Irrecoverable taxes paid abroad 16.2 8.8% Other 6.7 3.6% Prior year taxes (5.6) (3.0%) Effect of national consolidated tax system (34.7) (18.8%) Total 46.0 25.0% The above-described tax expense is affected by the following: a) the temporary non-recovery in Italy of taxes paid abroad under the law of the countries in which the consolidated companies’ branches operate, which led to greater taxes of euro 16.2 million compared to the “theoretical” tax burden. This is mainly due to the mismatch between the taxable profit earned abroad and, in particular, that earned in Italy, which the parent calculates together with those of its Italian subsidiaries (the national consolidation tax system). In 2008, the IRES tax base is negative and, therefore, foreign taxes cannot currently be recovered. However, their future recovery is still possible in accordance with current tax legislation; b) permanent differences, which have increased the effective tax expense by euro 7.1 million with respect to the “theoretical” tax burden; c) the greater tax rates applied to certain foreign consolidated companies, which increased the effective tax expense by euro 5.6 million; d) the effects of application of the national consolidation tax system to the prior year temporary differences of FIBE and FIBE Campania, which reversed in 2008, but which did not meet the requirement for the recognition of deferred tax assets in the years to which they pertained. This decreased the effective tax expense by euro 34.7 million with respect to the theoretical tax burden. 197

An analysis and reconciliation of the theoretical IRAP tax rate, calculated under Italian tax legislation, and the effective tax rate are set out below.

IRAP (Euro/m) % Operating profit 189.1 Personnel expenses 327.7 Net operating profit 516.8 Theoretical tax expense 20.2 3.9% Tax effect of foreign companies' production (6.6) (1.3%) Tax effect of foreign production (5.6) (1.1%) Tax effect of permanent differences (1.5) (0.3%) Total 6.5 1.2%

The net deferred tax expense contributes negatively to the consolidated profit for euro 17.4 million as shown below:

(Euro/000) Deferred tax expense for the year 11,594 Reversal of deferred tax liabilities recognised in previous years (1,512) Deferred tax income for the year (4,999) Reversal of deferred tax income recognised in previous years 12,341 Total 17,424

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset mainly when relating to Italian companies participating in the national consolidation tax system.

16. Profits (losses) from discontinued operations Profits (losses) from discontinued operations for 2008 and 2007 are analysed below:

2008 2007 USW Campania Costanera Total Total Change (Euro/000) projects Revenue - - - 141,391 (141,391) Costs (5,038) - (5,038) (172,147) 167,109 Gains (losses) on the disposal of assets and impairment losses - - - - - Gain on investments - 40,605 40,605 - 40,605 Total (5,038) 40,605 35,567 (30,756) 66,323

The net profits from discontinued operations amount to euro 35.6 million (net losses of euro 30.8 million in 2007). They mainly derive from the financial components of the agreement defined in 2006 for the sale of the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. by Impregilo International Infrastructures, which were to be defined after the sale. This profit of euro 40.6 million has been partially offset by the loss on the USW Campania projects of euro 5.0 million. 17. Related party transactions Impregilo group’s transactions with its associates mainly related to: • trading transactions, namely purchases and procurement of services necessary to carry out work on contracts, contracting and subcontracting; • services (technical, organisational, legal and administrative), carried out at centralised level; • financial transactions, namely loans and joint current accounts as part of cash pooling transactions and guarantees given on behalf of group companies. Transactions are carried out with associates in the interests of Impregilo, aimed at building on existing synergies in the group in terms of production and sales integration, efficient use of existing skills, streamlining of centralised structures and financial resources. These transactions are regulated by specific contracts and carried out on an arm’s length basis. The key related party transactions, as defined by IAS 24 and group policies, carried out in 2008 are summarised below:

The above related party transactions relate to the following: (i) transactions carried out as part of the high speed/capacity railway contracts; (ii) valuations of the financial components of the agreement defined in 2006 related to the sale of the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. by Impregilo International Infrastructures, which were to be valued after the sale, as described earlier. The above transactions are governed by specific agreements and carried out on an arm’s length basis. Their effects on the balance sheet and income statement are shown together with the related contract. Their impact on the group’s financial position and results of operations for 2008 has not been material, except for net profits from discontinued operations. The fees of the directors and key managers for 2008 amount to euro 4.6 million while those of the statutory auditors come to euro 0.2 million. As required by Consob communication no. DEM/6064293, the effects of the above most significant related party transactions are disclosed in the balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

18. Significant non-recurring events and transactions With respect to significant non-recurring events as defined in Consob communication no. DEM/6064293(1), apart from the net profits from discontinued operations, the group’s financial position and results of operations for 2008 were not affected by significant non-recurring events and transactions. 2007 had a significant non-recurring euro 50 million accrual for the prosecution commenced by the Naples Public Prosecutor for the USW Campania projects, as described in the directors’ report.

19. Balances or transactions arising from atypical and/or unusual transactions Impregilo group did not carry out any atypical and/or unusual transactions, as defined in the Consob communication no. DEM/6064293(2), during the year.

20. Earnings per share 200 Earnings per share are disclosed at the foot of the income statement. They have been calculated in accordance with IAS 33, taking into account the dilutive effects of potential shares arising from stock option plans.

On behalf of the board of directors Chairman (signed on the original)

1) Significant non-recurring events and transactions are those that do not frequently occur in the normal course of business. 2) Atypical and/or unusual transactions are those that, due to their significance and relevance, the counterparty, the object of the transaction, exchange pricing and timing, may cast doubts as to the accuracy and completeness of disclosures, conflicts of interest, protection of the group’s assets and minority interests.

NOTES TO THE SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF IMPREGILO S.p.A.

INTRODUCTION Impregilo S.p.A. has prepared its 2008 separate financial statements on a going concern basis. As required by Regulation no. 1606/2002 issued by the European Parliament and Council, implemented in Italy by Legislative decree no. 38/2005, the separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed by the European Union up to 31 December 2008. They comprise a balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and these notes. The separate financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost principle, except for those items which are recognised at fair value in accordance with IFRS, as described in the section on “Accounting policies”. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, hedged with transactions which qualify for hedge accounting, are adjusted to reflect changes in fair value related to the hedged risks. The balance sheet and income statement are presented in Euros, whereas the amounts in the cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and these notes are shown in thousands of Euros, unless stated otherwise.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 250 The European Union endorsed IFRIC 11 (IFRS 2 - Group and Treasury Share Transactions), applicable from 1 January 2008. This interpretation has not affected the company’s 2008 separate financial statements. On 13 October 2008, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 39 - Financial instruments: recognition and measurement - and to IFRS 7 - Financial instruments: disclosures - applicable from 1 July 2008. This allows in special circumstances: (i) reclassification of non-derivative financial assets belonging to the category “at fair value through profit or loss”; (ii) transfer of loans and receivables classified as “held for sale” to “held to maturity”, if the company has the intention and ability to hold such instruments for a foreseeable future period or until maturity. Adoption of the above amendment has not affected the parent’s separate financial statements at 31 December 2008 as, due to the type and limited materiality of the above categories of financial instruments held by the group, it has not made the related reclassifications.

FORMAT AND CONTENT OF THE SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Format of financial statements Impregilo S.p.A. opted to present its separate financial statements at 31 December 2008 as follows: • Current and non-current assets and current and non-current liabilities are presented separately in the balance sheet. Current assets that include cash and cash equivalents are those expected to be realised, sold or used in the company’s normal operating cycle. Non- current assets include positive balances expected to be realised more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, financial assets and deferred tax assets. Current liabilities include payables expected to be settled no more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, including the current part of medium/long-term loans. Non- current liabilities include payables expected to be settled more than twelve months after the balance sheet date, such as financial payables, personnel-related provisions and deferred tax liabilities. • The income statement gives a classification of costs by nature and shows the profit or loss before “Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments” and income taxes. The profit or loss from continuing operations and the profits or losses from discontinued operations are also disclosed. • The consolidated cash flow statement presents the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities separately. The indirect method is used.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES The key accounting policies adopted to draw up the separate financial statements are described below.

Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are recognised at purchase or production cost, net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis using rates determined based on the assets’ residual possible use. The annual rates are as follows: 251

Category Depreciation rate Land - Buildings 3% Plant and machinery from 10% to 20% Industrial and commercial equipment from 25% to 40% Other assets from 12% to 25%

Land and buildings and plant and machinery held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is tested for impairment using the methods set out in the section on “Impairment of assets”. The company has adopted the alternative method to recognise borrowing costs directly related to the acquisition or construction of an asset that provides for their capitalisation as part of the cost of the asset, to the extent of its recoverable amount. As established by IAS 23 - Borrowing costs, the group has applied this method to all qualifying assets. Borrowing costs are capitalised when the costs of the acquisition of the asset and borrowing costs are incurred, and the activities necessary to bring the asset into a condition for its use have been started. Costs incurred after the purchase are only capitalised if they increase the future economic benefits of the related asset. All other costs are expensed when incurred. Ordinary maintenance costs are fully expensed when incurred. Those that increase the carrying amount of assets are allocated thereto and depreciated over their residual economic lives. Leasehold improvements are classified in the different items of property, plant and equipment on the basis of their nature. They are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the relevant asset and the residual term of the lease.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Leased property, plant and equipment Assets held under finance leases whereby all the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred to the company are recognised as company assets and classified as property, plant and equipment. The related payable to the lessor is shown under financial payables. The lease payment is split into the financial expense, taken to the income statement, and the principal repayment, offset against the financial payable. The carrying amount of the leased asset is determined considering its fair value or, if lower, the present value of the lease payments. Capitalised leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s estimated useful life and the lease term. Leases where the lessor retains all the risks and rewards of ownership are treated as operating leases. The initial negotiation costs incurred for this type of lease increase the value of the related lease and are recognised over the lease term netted against the revenue generated by the lease. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Other intangible assets Other intangible assets purchased or generated internally are recognised under assets in accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible assets when 252 it is probable that the use of the asset will generate future economic benefits and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Those assets with finite useful lives are measured at purchase or development cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Recoverability of their carrying amount is checked by using the criteria set out in the section on “Impairment of assets”. The excess of the purchase cost compared to the company’s share of the net fair value of the high capacity business units acquired in the past is classified as other intangible assets and mainly refers to acquisition costs of the business units purchased. The related amortisation is calculated in line with the stage of completion of the work. Ancillary charges for share capital increases are recorded in equity as a decrease in the related reserve, net of deferred taxes. Ancillary charges for financing transactions are recognised under liabilities against the disbursed loan as per the criteria given in the section on “Loans and bond issues”.

Equity investments Investments in subsidiaries and associates and interests in joint ventures are measured at cost and tested regularly for impairment. This test is carried out whenever there is an indication that the investment may be impaired. The method used is described in the section on “Impairment of assets”. When an impairment loss is required, this is recognised immediately in profit or loss. When the reasons for a previous impairment loss no longer exist, the carrying amount of the investment is restated to the extent of its original cost. Reversals of impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment of assets If there is any indication that an intangible asset or an item of property, plant and equipment is impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of the impairment loss. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. If a binding sales agreement does not exist, fair value is estimated using the observable prices of an active market, recent transactions or the best information available to reflect the amount the entity could obtain by disposing of the asset. Value in use is determined by discounting to present value the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset, gross of taxes, and, if reasonably determinable, from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Discounting is applied by using a pre- tax discount rate which reflects the present market value of the time value of money and specific risks. The assessment is made for individual assets or the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets from its continuing use (cash-generating unit). An impairment loss is recognised when the recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount. If the reasons for the impairment loss are no longer valid, the impairment loss (except in the case of goodwill) is reversed and the adjustment is taken to profit or loss as a reversal of impairment losses. A reversal of impairment losses is recognised to the extent of the lower of the recoverable amount and original carrying amount gross of previously recognised adjustments less depreciation/amortisation that would have been recognised had the impairment loss not been recognised.

Inventories of goods 253 Inventories of goods are measured at the lower of average purchase cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the directly related costs and estimated realisable value is determined using the replacement cost of the assets or similar assets. Any write-downs are eliminated in subsequent years when the reasons therefor are no longer valid.

Contract work in progress and revenue from construction contracts Contract work in progress consists of work performed net of progress billings issued to customers. When payment of the consideration is completed, the related turnover, including the advances, is recognised under “Revenue - goods and services” in the income statement with the related variation in inventories. The provision for contractual risks is directly offset against inventories and is set up to cover possible charges and losses on contracts performed either directly by the company or as part of a joint venture. Contract work in progress is measured considering the consideration agreed with the customer and the stage of completion of the work. Revenue related to contract work in progress is recognised using the stage of completion method. The stage of completion is determined using the cost to cost method whereby the percentage of completion (the ratio between costs incurred and total estimated costs) is applied to the total estimated revenue. Given the technical complexity, size and length of time involved in completing contracts, the additional considerations are measured before an agreement is reached with the customer. Claims for additional considerations are considered when measuring contract work in progress when they can be quantified and they are reasonably certain to be made. In the case of events that take place after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are approved, which provide additional information about expected profits or losses on the contract, this additional information is considered when determining the contractual revenue or costs to be incurred to complete the contract and for the recognition of any profits or losses. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

The contract costs, included in the cost to cost calculation, may be classified as: • pre-operating costs, which include costs incurred during the start-up stage of the contract, before construction starts, such as the costs of design and specific studies carried out for the contract; organisation and production start-up costs and building site start-up costs. These pre-operating costs are included in the stage of completion calculation and in the cost to cost calculation once they have been incurred. During the initial stage of the contract, they are included in the carrying amount of work in progress, if recoverable, without recognising any profit margin when the profit or loss cannot be reliably determined; • contract operating costs, which include those directly attributable to the contract (eg, materials, subcontracting, labour, amortisation and depreciation, expropriation costs, etc.). They are recognised on an accruals basis and included in the calculation of the stage of completion; • post-operating costs: this category includes site dismantlement costs generally incurred after the contract has been closed to remove the installations (or entire sites) and to return the machinery or plant to the company’s premises or transfer them to another site. This category also includes losses on abandoned materials and the cost of transporting unused materials. They are included in the contract estimate and, therefore, if incurred during the contract term, they are comprised in the calculation of the stage of completion. Therefore, 254 no specific accruals are made to the income statement; • costs for services to be rendered after completion of the contract: when provided for in the contract, these costs mainly relate to services rendered after the contract has been completed. They may include assistance and supervision provided in the early stages of use of the plant or scheduled maintenance. If the contract does not include specific additional considerations for these services and the contact may be “closed” for accounting purposes (contracts are usually closed once work is completed and the customer has accepted the end result), the costs to be incurred to render these services when the contract is closed in the accounting records should be estimated and provided for in the specific items. These costs are included in the calculation to determine the contract revenue.

Real estate projects Real estate projects, included in inventories, are measured at the lower of cost, increased by additional charges incurred, and estimated realisable value. Costs incurred consist of the consideration paid for purchasing the areas and related charges, construction costs and borrowing costs related to the project up to and not exceeding its completion.

Financial assets and liabilities Measurement and presentation of financial instruments are covered by IAS 39 and IAS 32. The company has introduced the disclosure required by IFRS 7 from 2007. The financial instruments used by the company are classified as follows: financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets.

Financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss This category also includes derivatives that do not meet hedge accounting requirements. Fair value gains or losses on derivatives in this category are recognised as “Financing income (costs)” in profit or loss when they arise. Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market. They are measured at amortised cost, as detailed further on, and any gains or losses arising therefrom are recognised as “Financing income (costs)” in profit or loss under the amortised cost method. This category includes the following items: • Trade receivables and payables and other receivables and payables Trade and other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, net of impairment losses determined on the basis of their estimated recoverable amount calculated by analysing each position and the total non-collection risk. If the collection date is postponed and exceeds normal collection times for the sector, these receivables are discounted. All factored receivables that do not meet the requirements for derecognition under IAS 39 continue to be recognised in the company’s financial statements even when they have been legally transferred. They are thus included as assets and a financial liability of the same amount is recognised. Trade and other payables are recognised at amortised cost allocating the effective interest rate to the income statement, being the rate 255 that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through to the carrying amount of the financial asset.

• Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits and other short-term, highly liquid investments with a term of less than three months. In the cash flow statement, this item is shown net of bank borrowings at the balance sheet date.

• Loans and bonds Loans and bonds are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration received less transaction costs. After initial recognition, loans are measured at amortised cost, whereby repayments are determined using the effective interest method with a rate which matches, at initial recognition, the expected cash flows with the initial carrying amount. Amortised cost is calculated considering the issue costs and any discounts or premiums provided for at settlement. The effects arising from the recognition at amortised cost are taken to “Financing income (costs)”.

Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. They are recognised at amortised cost, and interest accrued thereon is taken to profit or loss under “Financial income” using the effective interest method.

Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are not classified in the other categories. They mainly relate to consortia and consortium companies of which the company holds less than 20%. In accordance with IAS 39, such investments are stated as non-current assets measured at cost, adjusted for impairment, since their fair value cannot be determined. Dividend income from such financial instruments is recognised in profit or loss under financial income when the company is given the right to such dividend.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of financial instruments has been estimated as follows: • The fair value of financial instruments traded on an active market is based on the market price at the reporting date or, where more significant, the average price of the last month of the year. This method has been applied especially to listed financial instruments classified as “Available-for-sale financial assets” and financial instruments classified as “Held-to-maturity investments”. • The fair value of the derivatives classified as “Hedging derivatives” and “Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” has been measured based on the Discounted Cash Flow Model. With respect to interest rate swaps, discounted cash flows have been estimated using the implicit forward rate of the market Euro curve at 31 December 2008 and 2007, while the forward exchange rate market prices at the relevant reporting date have been used for currency forward transactions. • The fair value of loans and receivables has been determined on the basis of the present value of their future cash flows discounted at a rate equal to the current interest rates applicable in the relevant markets and the average spread agreed by the company.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities 256 (a) Financial assets A financial asset (or, where applicable, part of a financial asset or parts of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when: (i) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire; (ii) the company retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients in full and immediately; (iii) the company transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the asset and: (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; or (b) neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset but has transferred control. When the company has transferred the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset and has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or has retained control, it continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of guaranteeing the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the initial carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of the consideration that the company could be required to pay. When the company’s continuing involvement takes the form of a written and/or purchased option on the transferred asset (including options settled in cash or similar options), the extent of the company’s continuing involvement is the amount of the transferred asset that it may repurchase. However, in the case of a written put option on an asset that is measured at fair value (including the options settled in cash or similarly), the extent of the company’s continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price.

(b) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are derecognised when the underlying obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is exchanged with another by the same lender at substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, this exchange or modification is treated as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment of financial assets If there is any indication that a financial asset is impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to determine the amount of the impairment loss.

Derivatives and hedging transactions Impregilo S.p.A. has derivatives recognised at fair value when the related agreement is signed and for subsequent fair value changes. The treatment of the related fair value gains or losses changes depending on whether the conditions for hedge accounting are met, as described below. The company has derivatives to hedge currency and financial risks. At the inception of the transaction, it documents the hedging transaction, its risk management and strategy objectives in entering into the transaction, the hedging instrument and hedged item or transaction and the nature of the hedged risk. Moreover, at the inception of the transaction and thereafter on an ongoing basis, the company documents whether or not the hedge meets the effectiveness requirements to offset its exposure to changes in the fair value of the hedged item or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. 257 Based on the above-mentioned documentation, derivatives used for specific hedging purposes are classified and recognised as follows:

(a) Fair value hedge - If a derivative is designated as a hedge of exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or liability due to a specific risk that may affect profit or loss, the gain or loss deriving from the subsequent measurement of the fair value of the hedging instrument is taken to profit or loss. The gain or loss on the hedged item, related to the hedged risk, changes the carrying amount of this item and is taken to profit or loss.

(b) Cash flow hedge - If a derivative is designated as a hedge of exposure to changes in cash flows of an asset or liability or a highly probable transaction and could affect profit or loss, the effective part of the gains or losses on the financial instrument is taken to equity. The cumulative gain or loss is derecognised from equity and taken to profit or loss in the same period in which the hedged transaction is recognised. The gain or loss related to a hedge or part of a hedge which has become ineffective is taken to profit or loss immediately. If a hedging instrument or a hedging relationship is closed, but the hedged transaction has not yet taken place, the cumulative gains and losses, recognised in equity up to then, are reclassified to profit or loss when the transaction takes place. If it is unlikely the hedged transaction will take place, the unrealised gains and losses recognised in equity are immediately recognised in profit or loss. The scope of the hedge is assessed in strategic terms. When they do not meet the requirements of IAS 39 for hedge accounting, the derivatives are classified as “Financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss”.

Employee benefits Post-employment benefits Post-employment benefits are recognised at the actuarial value of the Impregilo’s payable determined in line with ruling legislation and national and in-house labour agreements. The actuarial method, based on demographic, financial and turnover assumptions, is applied by independent actuaries. The related gains and losses are taken to profit or loss as costs or revenue. The 2007 finance act and related implementing decrees have introduced significant changes to legislation governing Italian post-

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

employment benefits, effective as from 1 January 2007. These include the option given to employees, to be exercised before 30 June 2007, of where to allocate their future benefits. Specifically, employees could opt to allocate them to selected pension funds or maintain them with the company, in which case, the latter shall pay the entitlements to the treasury fund of the Italian Social Security Institution (“INPS”). Following these changes, the Italian post-employment benefits vested up to the date the employees’ decision are considered part of a defined benefit plan and, as such, have been subjected to a new actuarial calculation by an independent expert, to exclude the future salary increase factor. Post-employment benefits accruing thereafter, and, in any case, after 30 June 2007, are considered part of a defined contribution plan and treated like all other social security contributions.

Share-based payments The company has applied the standards set out in IFRS 2 - Share-based payment. In line with the treatments for first-time adoption, IFRS 2 has been applied to all stock options assigned after 7 November 2002 and not yet vested at 1 January 2005. Stock option plans for the subscription of new shares of the company only cover the physical delivery of the shares issued for the related share capital increase at 258 the exercise date in exchange for payment by the beneficiaries of the exercise price. Share-based payments are measured at fair value of the option at the grant date. This amount is recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. This treatment is based on an assessment of the stock options that will effectively vest in favour of the qualifying employees. Determination of fair value is based on the binomial method for the measurement of options. The useful life used in the model was adjusted in line with the measurement of the effects of the non-transferability of shares, restrictions to exercise rights and considerations about employee behaviour.

Revenue recognition Revenue is measured to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the related amount can be reliably determined. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the company has shipped the goods and has transferred all the material risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. Revenue from construction contracts is recognised as provided for in the related Standard, described below. When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, contract revenue and contract costs associated with the construction contract are recognised as revenue and expenses, respectively, by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date based on the ratio between the costs incurred up to the balance sheet date and the total estimated contract costs, unless this is not held to represent the stage of completion of the contract. Changes in the contract, claims and incentive payments are recognised to the extent that they are reasonably certain. Revenue is recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Interest income Interest income is recognised on an accruals basis, considering the financed amount and applicable effective interest rate, ie, the rate that discounts the estimated future inflows over the expected life of the financial asset to return it to its carrying amount.

Dividends Dividends are recognised when the shareholders’ right to receive payment arises in line with local ruling legislation.

Income taxes Current taxes are provided for using the tax rates and applying the tax laws ruling in Italy and other countries in which the company operates, based on the best estimate of the taxable profit for the year. Beginning from 2004, the company has joined the national tax consolidation system, as the consolidating party, which is regulated by the conditions set out in agreements drawn up by the participating companies. The group policies provide that tax losses transferred by the subsidiaries give rise to a benefit for them to the extent to which they could 259 have been used had the national tax consolidation system not existed. Otherwise, the parent benefits, except for a partial payment to the companies transferring the losses, in proportion to the effective use in the national tax consolidation system. Moreover, the smaller taxes paid by Impregilo following the national tax consolidation system are prudently provided for when it is probable that the tax losses will be paid in the future to the subsidiaries that transferred them. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated on the basis of the temporary differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and their carrying amount in the balance sheet. Deferred tax assets are recognised when the company holds their recovery to be probable. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each year end and, to the extent necessary, is decreased when it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available in the future to use all or part of the related benefit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities, respectively. In the case of transactions recognised directly in equity, the related deferred tax asset or liability also affects equity.

Provisions for contingencies and charges In accordance with IAS 37, the company makes accruals to provisions for risks and charges when the following conditions exist:

• the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event where an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation;

• it is probable that the obligation (through an outflow of resources) will have to be settled;

• a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

When the time value is material and the obligation payment dates can be estimated reliably, the amount recognised as the provision equals the pre-tax future cash flows (ie, forecast outflows) discounted at a rate that reflects the present market value and risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision over time is taken to the income statement as a financial expense. When the expected cash flows are included in an estimate range with the same probability of occurrence, the median value is discounted to measure the liability. Provision for restructuring costs is made when the company has approved a detailed formal plan that has been implemented and communicated to the third parties involved.

Translation criteria for foreign currency items The translation criteria for foreign currency items adopted by the company are as follows: • foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities, excluding property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and equity investments measured at cost, are measured at the closing spot rate with any exchange rate gains or losses taken to the income statement; 260 • property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (non-monetary assets) are recognised at historic cost denominated in the foreign currency and translated using the historic exchange rate; • revenue and costs related to foreign currency transactions are recognised in profit or loss at the exchange rate ruling on the date of the transaction; • any material effects deriving from changes in exchange rates after the balance sheet date are disclosed in the notes.

Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations Non-current assets (and disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Assets held for sale are recognised as such when one of the following events takes place: • signing of a binding sales agreement; • approval and communication of a formal sales plan by directors. In order to be correctly measured, the assets shall be: • available for immediate sale in their present condition, • subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets, and • the sale must be highly probable and expected to take place within twelve months. Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their previous carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. The results of discontinued operations are disclosed separately in the income statement. As required by IFRS 5.34 - Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations, the corresponding income statement figures presented for comparative purposes are restated accordingly. Risks relating to customers and the countries in which Impregilo S.p.A. operates The company is active in segments where most of the contracts are with state-owned customers. Therefore, its results are strictly related to the amount and term of investments in large-scale infrastructure works scheduled and awarded by governments or public bodies of the countries in which the company carries out its ongoing activities. Impregilo is also exposed to a series of country risks, such as changes in political or social conditions and the development of economic policies.

Significant accounting estimates Preparation of financial statements and the related notes in accordance with the IFRS requires management to make judgements and estimates that affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and financial statements disclosures. The estimates are used to determine impairment of assets, amortisation and depreciation, employee benefits, taxes and provisions for risks and charges as well as to determine total contract costs and the related stage of completion. The actual results may differ from those estimated due to uncertainties underlying the assumptions and the conditions on which the estimates are based.

A significant part of the company’s activities is typically performed on the basis of contracts which provide that a specific consideration is 261 agreed when the contract is awarded. This implies that the profits on these contracts may undergo change compared to the original estimates depending on the recoverability of greater expenses and/or costs the company may incur during performance of such contracts. Fundamental assumptions about the future and other reasons for uncertainty when making the estimates at the balance sheet date that may lead to material adjustments to the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities are described in the specific section of the directors’ report which gives an analysis of the risk areas of each segment.

1.2 Intangible assets Intangible assets amount to euro 49.6 million, down from the 31 December 2007 figure by euro 2.8 million due to amortisation for the year. This item only relates to contract acquisition costs and includes considerations paid to purchase the railway high speed/capacity business units. These assets have a finite life and are amortised in line with the stage of completion of the related contracts. The year-end balance is as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2007 Increases Amortisation 31 December 2008 263 Cavet (Florence - Bologna railway line) 517 - (301) 216 Cavtomi (Turin - Milan railway line) 5,430 - (2,517) 2,913 Cociv (Milan-Genoa railway line) 46,474 - - 46,474 Total 52,421 - (2,818) 49,603

Amortisation of the contract acquisition costs for the high speed/capacity business units is calculated using the stage of completion of the contracts based on the cost to cost method and considering the related purchase dates. Amortisation of the acquisition costs for the Milan-Genoa railway line contract has not yet started as the related works have not commenced. Assets recognised in the balance sheet at year end are deemed to be recoverable either through the ongoing arbitration proceeding for the customer’s contractual non-compliance or re-commencement of the related works. Reference should be made to the directors’ report for more information on Consorzio Cociv’s specific position.

1.3 Equity investments Equity investments increased by euro 44.9 million to euro 356.8 million, as shown in the following table.

“Subsidiaries” include interests in jointly-controlled companies/consortia/joint ventures.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Changes during the year are summarised below:

Acquisitions 42,770 Disinvestments (543) Waiver of receivables and share capital increases 37,774 Impairment losses (1,505) Other changes (33,609) Total 44,887

Acquisitions of new investments mainly relate to the euro 37.6 million stake in Pedemontana Lombarda, which was awarded the tender for the definitive project, executive plan and construction of the first section of the Como and Varese ring roads and the connector road between the A8 and the A9 motorways (from Cassano Magnago to Lomazzo), and the euro 4.2 million investment in Impregilo Arabia Ltd.. Neither of these two companies was active at year end. Disinvestments relate to companies in liquidation. 264 The waiver of receivables and share capital increases totalling euro 37.8 million is mainly due to the company’s waver of receivables due from FIBE and FIBE Campania (euro 33.6 million) and the subsidiary Sgf Inc. (euro 2.0 million) to cover their losses. The company set up a specific provision for risks for FIBE’s losses in 2007 and its entire utilisation is shown in the item “Other changes” in the previous table. Reference should be made to the annex “Equity investments” for the list of investments in subsidiaries, associates and other companies.

2. Provisions for risks and charges These provisions amount to euro 108.9 million at year end. Changes of the year are as follows:

31 December Accruals Utilisation Reversals Other 31 December (Euro/000) 2007 changes 2008 Provision for risks on investments 55,006 8,100 (6,685) (33,609) 22,812 Other provisions 101,479 1,049 (11,030) (5,395) - 86,103 Total 156,485 9,149 (17,715) (5,395) (33,609) 108,915

The provision for risks on investments decreased by an overall euro 32.2 million, mainly due to the following: • impairment losses recognised on the investments in the subsidiaries FIBE and FIBE Campania (euro 8.1 million) and their recapitalisation (euro 33.6 million - other changes), which had already affected profit or loss in 2007; • utilisation of euro 6.7 million of the provision set up in previous years in the separate financial statements for the company’s investment in Impresit Bakolori, which was released following the group’s decision to exit the partnership with the Nigerian partners following the significant worsening of the general stability in Nigeria and the fact that the company was no longer able to manage the subsidiary in strategic and management terms. The provision for risks made in previous years for this subsidiary reflected the company’s measurement of the contingent liability of restructuring the subsidiary’s operations. This restructuring did not go ahead due to the changed local situation. In previous years, the company had already fully impaired its receivables from Impresit Bakolari and, therefore, it did not have risk positions in this respect at year end. This provision may be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Subsidiaries 19,798 51,992 (32,194) Associates and other companies 3,014 3,014 - Total 22,812 55,006 (32,194)

The other provisions decreased by a net euro 15.4 million, mainly due to settlement of certain disputes or adjustments made to reflect the actual risk of losing the cases as assessed at the reporting date. The other accruals of euro 1.0 million mainly relate to estimates for litigation involving the company’s foreign branches. Utilisations related to the occurrence of the risks originally provided for, especially for the Ghazi Barotha (Pakistan) contract of euro 6.9 million, litigation related to the contracts in Lesotho and Ecuador of euro 2.7 million, settlement of the ongoing litigation with the Icelandic tax authorities of euro 2.5 million, the T.A.T. (Switzerland) contract of euro 0.7 million, the Malpensa Business Park contract of euro 0.4 million and other contracts of euro 3.1 million. 265 Other provisions include the following:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Contract completion costs 13,429 14,152 (723) Ongoing litigation 3,387 5,391 (2,004) Building segment litigation 9,443 12,730 (3,287) Tax and social security litigation 616 3,100 (2,484) Personnel litigation 1,068 1,020 48 USW Campania projects litigation 50,000 50,000 - Other 8,160 15,086 (6,926) Total 86,103 101,479 (15,376)

Contract completion costs mainly include the accruals for the outstanding future charges to complete the Tunnel Alp Transit (T.A.T.) contract in Switzerland. Provisions related to the Building segment litigation refer to provisions for risks and charges previously accrued by Impregilo Edilizia e Servizi, which was merged into Impregilo S.p.A. in 2007. The utilisations for the year principally relate to a number of disputes nearing settlement for the Greek and Arabian branches. The other provisions mainly comprise amounts accrued in 2007 for certain foreign contracts completed in previous years for which disputes are ongoing with the customers. Relationships with these customers are difficult and, therefore, the company is unable to estimate when exactly the related receivables will be collected. During 2008, the parent commenced a dispute with the Milan tax office about an assessment challenging the tax treatment of impairment losses and losses in 2003 of certain investments held by the parent in that year. The most significant issue relates to the parent’s sale of its entire investment in the Chilean concession company Costanera Norte S.A. to Impregilo International Infrastructures N.V. in 2003. The company has challenged the unlawfulness of the criteria adopted by the tax office to determine the “normal value” of the sale. The office redetermined the alleged transfer value using the consideration paid by third parties which acquired the concession company in 2006 as a

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

base, limiting itself to discounting this consideration over the period from the sale date in 2006 to the date of the previous transfer from Impregilo to Impregilo International Infrastructures. This is to demonstrate the greater tax that it claims should have been paid. Before the dispute was commenced, Impregilo had fully demonstrated with the related documentation the correctness of the method adopted in 2003, which had, moreover, been approved by an independent appraisal at the time of the sale. However, the tax office had not considered this documentation. At the date of the original sale, the Chilean concession company was still “constructing” its infrastructure and had only just commenced (without having completed) the activities aimed at obtaining financing to complete these works. During the preliminary stage of the dispute, Impregilo obtained a new, independent appraisal of the disputed transfer price to support its calculation. This was prepared by a leading international advisory firm. It also informed the tax office that another investment in the Chilean concession company then held by SIMEST S.p.A., a state-owned company, had also been transferred to Impregilo International Infrastructures in April 2004 for a substantially equal consideration (given the different investment percentages) to that being disputed. Despite these arguments, the local commission (first level) rejected Impregilo’s case without specifying why, fully accepting the tax office’s claims and ordering the company to pay the assessed tax, interest and fines of approximately euro 52 million. This measure was appealed against before the second level court. The lawyers assisting the company agree with it that there are valid reasons to hold that the greater tax imposed by the tax office is unlawful, deeming that the unfavourable first level ruling was deficient in terms of the reasoning, based moreover on illegitimate arguments and without objective grounds. Therefore, Impregilo has not made any provision therefor either in its separate or consolidated financial statements. 266 Reference should be made to the directors’ report for information on the accrual for the USW Campania projects.

3. Post-employment benefits and employee benefits At 31 December 2008, the present value of the company’s actual liability due to all its employees determined using the criteria set out in IAS 19 is euro 18.2 million, up euro 2.6 million on the previous year. An independent actuary performed the actuarial valuation of the post- employment benefits, which are the largest component of this item. The actuarial valuation was based on the following rates: • turnover rate 8%; • discount rate 4.5%; • advance payment rate 2%; • inflation rate 2%.

Changes in the provision are as follows:

31 December Accrual Payments Contributions paid Other 31 December 2007 to INPS treasury changes 2008 (Euro/000) and other funds Post-employment benefits and employee benefits 15,603 9,912 (4,492) (1,145) (1,644) 18,234

4. Other non-current assets and non-current receivables due from group companies The items amount to euro 310.2 million (31 December 2007: euro 357.9 million) as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Non-current receivables due from group companies 309,785 357,186 (47,401) Other non-current assets 400 752 (352) Total 310,185 357,938 (47,753) Non-current receivables due from group companies of euro 309.8 million mainly relate to subsidiaries, including: • Receivable due from Imprepar - Impregilo Partecipazioni S.p.A. in liquidation of euro 160.6 million. This receivable is subordinated pursuant to article 2497-quinquies of the Italian Civil Code and is unchanged from the previous year. It is shown net of the provision for bad debts of euro 175.7 million, set up to cover the deficit shown in the subsidiary’s interim liquidation financial statements at 31 December 2007.

Current payables due to group companies include euro 2.6 million for Imprepar, which can be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2007 Change 31 December 2008 Due to Imprepar (4,767) 2,206 (2,561)

The net total receivable due from Imprepar amounts to euro 158.0 million, which is in line with the subsidiary’s liquidation plan and the present value of discounted future cash flows, net of payments to banks and suppliers after having repaid future operating costs incurred as part of the liquidation procedure. The receivable does not bear interest and is comparable to an equity instrument or an 267 endowment fund. • Financial receivable due from FIBE S.p.A. of euro 144.0 million, arising from the granting of liquidity thereto to settle the subsidiary’s debt with banks. The receivable decreased by euro 28.9 million due to the company’s waiver of receivables during the year to cover the subsidiary’s losses. The loan agreement between Impregilo S.p.A. and FIBE S.p.A., entered into in 2006, provides that the loan shall be repaid at least 24 months after the agreement date. Given the subsidiary’s financial position and the commitments taken on by Impregilo to support it, the receivable has not borne interest since the end of 2006. Reference should be made to the Annex “Intragroup transactions” for a breakdown of such receivable shown as a gross balance and net of the related payables. Other non-current assets amount to euro 0.4 million and include tax receivables for the substitute tax on post-employment benefits (euro 0.1 million) and guarantee deposits.

5. Net tax assets Net tax assets total euro 111.6 million at 31 December 2008, down on 31 December 2007, as follows:

(Euro/000) 31 December 2008 31 December 2007 Change Deferred tax assets 22,677 32,680 (10,003) Current tax assets 161,906 159,255 2,651 Liabilities for national consolidated tax system (46,092) (5,985) (40,107) Current tax liabilities (26,909) (30,287) 3,378 Total 111,582 155,663 (44,081)

Net deferred tax assets amount to euro 22.7 million at year end, down euro 10.0 million on 31 December 2007. Details on the related changes are given in note 14.

The amount involved totalled euro 52.9 million (including VAT and IRPEG receivables of euro 12.8 million and euro 40.1 million, respectively). According to the communication from the tax authorities, the factored VAT receivables should be collected within 2009. 268 Liabilities for the national consolidated tax system of euro 46.1 million at year end relate to the company’s potential payable to group companies participating in the system with respect to their losses transferred and not recognised in accordance with the ruling tax contract (see the paragraph on “Income taxes” in the “Accounting policies” section). Current tax liabilities of euro 26.9 million decreased by euro 3.4 million over 31 December 2007. They may be analysed as follows:

The increase is due to progress on the contracts carried out by the Venezuelan branch and the decrease in the high speed/capacity and 270 Icelandic projects, principally due to the performance of the contracts in terms of production made during the year and approvals thereof.

6.3 Advances on contract work in progress The item “Advances on contract work in progress” included in “Current liabilities”, amounts to euro 201.0 million, down euro 63.0 million on the figure at 31 December 2007. It comprises:

6.4.1 Trade receivables The balance of euro 200.4 million, net of the provision for bad debts (euro 11.0 million), shows a net increase of euro 32.6 million, mainly due to the greater activities carried out by the Venezuelan branch.

6.5.1 Trade payables Trade payables decreased by euro 6.3 million to euro 63.7 million, due to both the decrease in payables due to corporate suppliers (euro 15.5 million) and the Icelandic branch (euro 4.4 million) and the increase related to the Venezuelan branch (euro 13.0 million) following continuation of work on the contracts.

6.5.2 Current payables due to group companies This item amounts to euro 340.9 million, up euro 31.8 million, as follows:

Financial receivables amount to euro 6.8 million, showing a euro 1.6 million decrease on 31 December 2007, mainly due to a reduction in the receivable of euro 3.0 million due to the Greek branch by its partner Aktor and the euro 1.2 million increase in the receivable due to the Venezuelan branch from its foreign partner (with which Impregilo works in this country). Advances to suppliers decreased to euro 15.3 million due to utilisation thereof by the Venezuelan branch in connection with its projects. Other receivables of euro 4.1 million decreased by euro 2.6 million following amounts collected during the year.

Other accrued expenses are matched to the related portion of costs not yet paid for contract work in progress. The decrease in other deferred income is mainly due to the release to profit or loss of amounts deferred until the end of the previous year due to finalisation of the previously agreed contract. 7. Equity Equity amounts to euro 806.9 million at 31 December 2008 compared to euro 724.7 million at the end of 2007.

As a result, the company’s share capital amounts to euro 718,364,456.72 at 31 December 2008, split into 404,073,428 shares, including 402,457,937 ordinary shares and 1,615,491 savings shares.

Savings shares issued pursuant to the law do not carry voting rights, have preference dividend and capital repayment rights and can be bearer shares, subject to the provisions of point 2, article 2354 of the Italian Civil Code. Upon the shareholder’s request and at his/her own expense, they can be converted into registered shares and vice versa. Savings shares held by directors, statutory auditors and CEOs 276 are registered. Except when the company’s by-laws or relevant legislation provide for otherwise, savings shares give the holders the same rights as those of ordinary shares.

Holders of savings shares do not have the right to attend the company’s shareholders’ meetings or to request that they are called. The special savings shareholders’ meeting is regulated by law. When reserves are distributed, the savings shares have the same rights as ordinary shares.

Upon dissolution of the company, savings shares bear preference rights to capital repayment, up to euro 5.2 per share. When shares are grouped or split (as well as when capital transactions are carried out and as necessary in order to protect the savings shareholders’ rights in the case the shares have nominal value), the above fixed amount shall be adjusted accordingly.

Profit for the year as per the annual financial statements is allocated as follows:

a) 5% to the legal reserve, up to the legally-required amount;

b) to savings shares, to the extent of 5% of euro 5.2 per share (ie, euro 0.26 per share). If a dividend lower than 5% of euro 5.2 per share (ie, euro 0.26 per share) is paid one year, the difference is taken as an increase in the preferred dividend of the following two years;

c) the residual amount, to all shareholders in such a way as to allocate to savings shares a total dividend which is 2% of euro 5.2 per share (ie, euro 0.104 per share) greater than that distributed to ordinary shares, except when the shareholders decide to allocate an amount to the extraordinary reserves or for other uses. Details on the possible use of equity items and uses in prior years are summarised below:

• Stock option reserve This reserve included the vested options granted to employees and directors at 31 December 2007 at fair value. As the related stock option plan was completely vested during 2007, the reserve became available and was, therefore, fully used to cover the losses and existing negative reserves, in accordance with the shareholders’ resolution of 7 May 2008, as disclosed earlier.

• Hedging reserve The company has agreed interest rate swaps to hedge existing loans. These derivative instruments meet the requirements of IAS 39 for designation as cash flow hedge financial instruments. Under Legislative decree no. 38 of 29 February 2005, this reserve is not available. Changes in the reserve that includes their fair value gains or losses are as follows:

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

Risk management Impregilo is exposed to financial risks, including the following: • market risk deriving from the company’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations and exchange rate fluctuations; • credit risk deriving from the company’s exposure to potential losses arising from the customers’ non-compliance with their obligations; • liquidity risk deriving from the risk that the financial resources necessary to meet obligations may not be available at the agreed terms and deadlines.

Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises currency risk and interest rate risk.

Currency risk

286 Impregilo’s international presence entails its exposure to the risk of fluctuations in exchange rates of the Euro and the currencies of the various countries in which it operates. Currency risk at 31 December 2008 mainly related to the following currencies: • Dollar (United States) • Real (Brazil) • Krona (Iceland) • Peso (Argentina) • Peso (Santo Domingo) • Bolivar (Venezuela) The company’s currency risk management strategy is essentially based on the following policies: • agreement of contractual considerations for works and projects in countries with weak currencies using a primarily multi-currency format, in which only a portion of the consideration is expressed in local currency; • use of portions of the contractual considerations in local currency mainly to cover project expenses to be incurred in that currency; • analysis of exposure in US dollars on a cumulative and prospective basis with consistent deadlines and setting up forward transactions in the same currency to hedge the company’s net exposure at those deadlines. Adoption of the above-mentioned policies has contained the company’s exposure to currency risk, which only relates to the USD and VEB. Had the Euro appreciated or depreciated by 5% against the USD at year end, the profit for the year would have been respectively lower or greater by euro 1.5 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant, mainly due to exchange rate losses (gains) arising from the adjustment of net assets in USD. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 0.2 million decrease (increase in the case of depreciation) in the loss for the year. Had the Euro appreciated or depreciated by 5% against the VEB at year end, the profit for the year would have been respectively lower or greater by euro 2.7 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant, mainly due to exchange rate losses (gains) arising from the adjustment of net assets in VEB. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 0.9 million decrease (increase in the case of depreciation) in the loss for the year.

Interest rate risk Impregilo has adopted a combined strategy of streamlining group operations by disposing of non-strategic assets, containing debt and hedging interest rate risks on a portion of the medium/long-term structured loans through interest rate swaps (IRSs). The financial risks arising from market interest rate fluctuations to which the company is potentially exposed and which are monitored by the relevant company personnel relate to medium/long-term financial payables bearing variable rates. Such risk is mitigated by interest accrued on short-term investments of liquidity available at the Italian-based consortia and consortium companies and foreign subsidiaries, which are used to support the company’s operations. Had interest rates increased (or decreased) by 50 basic points at year end, the profit for the year would have been respectively greater or lower by euro 1.0 million and equity would have been respectively greater or lower by euro 1.6 million, assuming that all other variables remained constant. A similar change at the end of the previous year would have led to a euro 1.4 million increase (or decrease of euro 1,6 million) in equity, assuming that all other variables remained constant. 287

Credit risk The credit risk is that deriving from the company’s exposure to potential losses arising from the customers’ (which are mostly governments or state bodies) non-compliance with their obligations. Management of this risk is complex, starting as early as the assessment of offers, through a careful analysis of the characteristics of the countries in which the company’s activities should be carried out and the customers requesting an offer, which are usually state or similar bodies. Therefore, this risk can be essentially assimilated to country risk. An analysis of this risk based on the age of the outstanding amounts is not very meaningful, since the receivables should be assessed together with the related working capital items, especially those reflecting the net exposure to customers (positive and negative work in progress, advances and payments on account) in relation to contract work in progress as a whole.

A breakdown of working capital by country, as shown in the section on segment reporting, is set out below:

Liquidity risk Liquidity risk derives from the risk that the financial resources necessary to meet obligations may not be available to the company at the agreed terms and deadlines. The company’s strategy aims at ensuring that each ongoing contract is financially independent. This strategy is strictly monitored centrally. A breakdown of financial liabilities by due date (based on undiscounted future cash flows) is set out below:

(Euro/000) 31-12-2009 31-12-2010 31-12-2013 After Total Current account facilities 134,303 134,303 Bank and other loans 243,057 117,833 82,247 765 443,902 Other financial liabilities 51,208 51,208 Finance lease payables 24 24 Derivatives 1,623 1,623 Gross financial liabilities 430,215 117,833 82,247 765 631,060 Trade payables 63,717 63,717 Total payables 493,932 117,833 82,247 765 694,777

Future interest has been estimated based on the market interest rates at the date of preparation of these financial statements summarised in the notes. The prior year figures are given below for comparative purposes:

(Euro/000) 31-12-2008 31-12-2010 31-12-2012 After Total Current account facilities 65,002 - 65,002 Bank and other loans 344,172 197,012 56,497 - 597,681 Finance lease payables 445 24 469 Derivatives 121 121 Gross financial liabilities 409,740 197,036 56,497 - 663,273 Trade payables 69,989 - 69,989 Total payables 479,729 197,036 56,497 - 733,262

Liquidity risk management is mainly based on containing debt and maintaining a balanced financial position.

Financial and trade payables (net of advances to suppliers) falling due before 31 March 2009 are compared with the cash and cash equivalents that can be used to meet such obligations in the table below. 289

(Euro/000) Total current financial commitments 306,774 Due before 31 March 2009 245,628 Cash and cash equivalents 128,692 Difference 116,936

The difference shown above is the “worse case scenario” occurring should all short-term credit lines without due dates be requested for repayment by lenders. In this respect: • at the date of preparation of these financial statements, the company has received no requests for early termination or immediate repayment of the above credit lines, nor are such requests expected in the next few months; • current financial receivables due from certain subsidiaries, consortia and joint ventures are adequately supported by their cash and cash equivalents, which have no particular restrictions and are readily collectible.

Income Statement

11. Revenue Revenue for 2008 amounts to euro 1,667.0 million, up euro 195.7 million on the previous year:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Revenue - goods and services 1,368,563 364,300 1,004,263 275.7% Change in work in progress, semi-finished products, finished products and real estate projects (25) (2,400) 2,375 (99.0%) Change in contract work in progress 248,635 1,067,156 (818,521) (76.7%) Other revenue and income 49,804 42,264 7,540 17.8% Total 1,666,977 1,471,320 195,657 13.3%

The 13.3% increase on 2007 is due to works on large contracts, mainly abroad (railway works in Venezuela and Greece) and the completion 290 of other contracts, such as the hydroelectric plant in Iceland and other works in Italy. Revenue - goods and services includes contractual revenue, deriving from production carried out during the year, measured using the cost to cost method, and the invoicing of services provided to group companies. It may be analysed as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Work invoiced to customers 977,303 134,608 842,695 626.0% Services 44,088 38,731 5,357 13.8% Gains on real estate projects 103 2,254 (2,151) (95.4%) Sales of materials 4,815 10,717 (5,902) (55.1%) Allocation of revenue from group companies 342,254 177,990 164,264 92.3% Total 1,368,563 364,300 1,004,263 275.7%

The increase in work invoiced to customers is due to the delivery of the works in Iceland (euro 752.0 million). “Allocation of revenue from group companies” relates to the portion of revenue earned by joint ventures pertaining to Impregilo. This caption relates to the Tunnel Alp Transit (T.A.T.) contract (euro 30.0 million), Costructora Mazar (euro 61.5 million), the Venezuelan joint ventures (euro 146.5 million), the Greek contracts (euro 46.7 million), the new Brazilian contracts (euro 41.4 million), the Vegas Tunnel (euro 9.8 million) and other minor contracts (euro 6.0 million). The increase is mainly due to Consorzio OIV Tocoma in Venezuela, the Brazilian contracts (Rio Tocantis and Serra do Mar) and the Vegas Tunnel contract. Work had not started on the latter contracts in 2007. Services mainly relate to sponsorship fees and services provided to group companies. Reference should be made to the note on work in progress for a breakdown of contract work in progress and related changes during the year. A breakdown of other revenue is given in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Change % Cost recoveries 22,245 17,178 5,067 29.5% Rent and leases 736 3,079 (2,343) (76.1%) Gains on the sale of property, plant and equipment 4,373 7,544 (3,171) (42.0%) Prior year income 15,465 14,112 1,353 9.6% Utilisations of provisions for risks - 292 (292) (100.0%) Other 6,985 59 6,926 1,1739.0% Total 49,804 42,264 7,540 17.8%

Cost recoveries relate to the portion of costs (insurance, technical and administrative services and sponsorship fees) incurred by the company on behalf of other group companies. The balance is in line with the previous year.

Prior year income of euro 15.5 million includes euro 9.7 million relating to the Icelandic branch for the settlement of the claim with the 291 Icelandic tax authorities and euro 5.0 million to the headquarters for the settlement of claims with suppliers.

“Other” relates to compensation and recognition of costs following the winding up of a joint venture in Brazil.

12. Costs

12.1 Raw materials and consumables The cost of raw materials and consumables incurred in 2008 decreased by euro 17.1 million to euro 41.0 million compared to the corresponding figure of the previous year:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Purchases of raw materials and consumables 39,192 2.4% 58,206 4.0% (19,014) Change in raw materials and consumables 1,826 0.1% (137) - 1,963 Total 41,018 2.5% 58,069 4.0% (17,051)

12.2 Subcontracts Costs of subcontracts increased to euro 49.3 million, up euro 6.6 million on the corresponding figure of the previous year. The increase is mainly due to the rise for the contracts of the Venezuelan branch (euro 7.2 million), the decrease related to the Icelandic branch, the contract of which is nearing completion (euro 3.9 million) and the direct contracts (euro 2.5 million).

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

12.3 Other operating expenses Other operating expenses totalled euro 1,302.3 million in 2008, up euro 146.1 million on 2007, mainly due to the rise in other operating costs.

This item is made up as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Consultancy and technical services 55,071 3.3% 56,832 3.9% (1,761) Fees to directors, statutory auditors and independent auditors 2,728 0.2% 5,822 0.4% (3,094) Maintenance 2,189 0.1% 1,671 0.1% 518 Transportation and freight 13,159 0.8% 10,163 0.7% 2,996 Insurance 8,245 0.5% 4,975 0.3% 3,270 Recharges and allocation of costs from consortia and joint ventures 1,172,811 70.4% 1,020,183 69.3% 152,628 Rent and leases 13,487 0.8% 21,756 1.5% (8,269) Other operating expenses 28,597 1.7% 28,070 1.9% 527 Prior year expense 3,820 0.2% 4,881 0.3% (1,061) 292 Losses 2,214 0.1% 1,902 0.1% 312 Total 1,302,321 78.1% 1,156,255 78.6% 146,066

The difference in “Other operating expenses” is mainly due to the rise in costs allocated to consortia and joint ventures. This rise is principally attributable to Consorzio OIV Tocoma in Venezuela and the Brazilian contracts (Rio Tocantis and Serra do Mar) and the Vegas Tunnel contract. Work on the latter contracts had not started in 2007.

“Consultancy and technical services” mainly consist of costs for the design and construction work carried out by the special purpose entities. These costs are broken down in the following table:

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Design and engineering services 46,868 2.8% 43,034 2.9% 3,834 Testing - - 111 - (111) Construction 101 - 427 - (326) Legal, administrative and other services 8,102 0.5% 13,260 0.9% (5,158) Total 55,071 3.3% 56,832 3.9% (1,761)

2008 directors’ and statutory auditors’ fees, as approved by the shareholders and board of directors, totalled euro 3,441.4 thousand and euro 193.3 thousand, respectively.

Key managers received total remuneration of euro 2,761.1 thousand. The following table shows the fees paid to the directors, statutory auditors and key managers during 2008:

Other personnel expenses principally relate to repayments of travel expenses.

The following table shows the workforce at year end and the related average number:

It may be analysed as follows.

(Euro/000) 2008 % of revenue 2007 % of revenue Change Accrual to the provision for bad debts 27 - 1,278 0.1% (1,251) Accrual to the provision for risks 1,049 0.1% 56,257 3.8% (55,208) Impairment losses 5,882 0.4% - - 5,882 Release of excess provisions (11,030) (0.7%) (24,870) (1.7%) 13,840 Total provisions and impairment losses (4,072) (0.2%) 32,665 2.2% (36,737) Amortisation 2,818 0.2% 4,649 0.3% (1,831) Depreciation 16,284 1.0% 17,642 1.2% (1,358) Total amortisation and depreciation 19,102 1.1% 22,291 1.5% (3,189) Total 15,030 0.9% 54,956 3.7% (39,926)

The previous year balance included a non-recurring euro 50 million accrual made for risks related to the ongoing prosecution for the USW 295 Campania projects.

Impairment losses mainly relate to the assets of the Icelandic branch, whose contract is being finalised, for which the company does not deem it will recover their carrying amount.

The release of excess provisions principally referred to the cost of closing the Pakistani branch, which had already been provided for (euro 4.2 million), tax expenses provided for the claim with the Icelandic tax authorities (euro 2.5 million) and other settled disputes for which an excess euro 4.3 million had been accrued.

13. Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments Financing income (costs) and gains (losses) on investments came to a positive euro 7.1 million compared to a positive euro 7.6 million for 2007.

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Net financing income 10,065 36,267 (26,202) Net losses on investments (2,917) (28,660) 25,743 Total 7,148 7,607 (459)

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

13.1 Net financing income Net financing income decreased to euro 10.1 million from euro 36.3 million in 2007 as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Bank interest income 6,443 9,055 (2,612) Interest on financial receivables 44,054 49,863 (5,809) Bank interest expense (58,127) (43,544) (14,583) Interest on other financial payables (12,314) (17,588) 5,274 Interest on leases (9) (137) 128 Bank charges and commissions (481) (657) 176 Commissions on sureties 5 (194) 199 Interest on tax assets 3,187 1,950 1,237 Detault interest, net 270 944 (674) Financial discounts and allowances 378 94 284 Impairment losses on financial receivables (14) (2,248) 2,234 296 Other financial income 8 1,633 (1,625) Other financial expense (275) (50) (225) Gains on the sale of securities 37,890 29,801 8,089 Fair value gains on financial instruments 4,233 - 4,233 Realised exchange rate gains (losses) (14,475) 9,437 (23,912) Unrealised exchange rate losses, net (708) (2,092) 1,384 Total 10,065 36,267 (26,202)

• Total net financial expense increased by euro 17.6 million, mainly due to the payables in Venezuela where interest rates rose significantly. This effect was worsened by an increase in the parent’s short-term exposure due to temporary delays in payments of progress billings by state-owned customers, for works duly approved. These delays started to be recovered in the last few months of 2008 and this trend has continued in early 2009.

• Gains on the sale of securities increased by euro 8.1 million. These gains were realised on payments made by customers in currencies other than those contractually provided for in 2007, whereas in 2008, they were realised by directly financing operations using the company’s own funds. It took advantage of the currency mismatches of money markets for certain South American currencies whose official exchange rates with some strong currencies, including the US dollar, are fixed artificially.

• Net exchange rate losses, including fair value losses on financial instruments, amounted to euro 11.0 million compared to net gains of euro 7.3 million for 2007, a negative net difference of euro 18.3 million due to the following situations.

- Net losses of euro 10.1 million in conjunction with the parent’s operations in Venezuela. This was basically due to the local customers’ failure to exercise their right to pay for work in US dollars, as contractually provided for and in their favour, but in the local contractual currency (Bolivar). They had continuously availed of this option in previous years for almost all contractual components expressed in the local currency and the related receivables were assessed on this basis at the end of the previous year. - Net losses of euro 0.9 million on weak and/or limited circulation currencies, such as those for Iceland and Brazil. Hedges cannot be agreed for such exchange rate risks at reasonable conditions

13.2 Gains (losses) on investments Net losses on investments in 2008 decreased by euro 25.7 million to euro 2.9 million as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Profit or loss on investments (2,921) (38,773) 35,852 Dividends 4 2,550 (2,546) Gains on the sale of investments - 7,307 (7,307) Impairment losses on financial receivables - 256 (256) Total (2,917) (28,660) 25,743 297

With respect to gains (losses) on investments, the company recorded a net loss of euro 2.9 million (euro 28.7 million), affected by the euro 8.1 million loss arising from the impairment losses on its investments in FIBE and FIBE Campania at the end of the year to reflect their losses incurred for the USW Campania projects. This loss was partly covered (euro 6.7 million) by the release of the provision for risks on investments set up before 2006 for the Nigerian subsidiary Impresit Bakolori P.l.c.. Following the significant worsening in the general stability in that area, the conditions for the exercise of strategic and management control by the company ceased to exist. The provision had been set up to provide for the contingent liabilities of restructuring the subsidiary’s operations, which never took place due to the changed situation. The company had already fully impaired its receivables from Impresit Bakolori in previous years. Therefore, it did not have any specific risk positions with it at year end.

14. Income tax expense The company’s income tax expense for the year is euro 62.9 million as follows:

(Euro/000) 2008 2007 Change Current taxes 55,113 33,035 22,078 Net deferred tax expense 10,003 12,434 (2,431) Prior year taxes (5,742) (12,395) 6,653 Total 59,374 33,074 26,300 IRAP 3,599 3,912 (313) Total 62,973 36,986 25,987

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

An analysis and reconciliation of the theoretical income tax rate, calculated under Italian tax legislation, and the effective tax rate are set out below:

Income tax expense (Euro/m) % Profit before tax 146.0 Theoretical tax expense 40.1 27.5% Tax effect of permanent differences 4.1 2.8% Irrecoverable taxes paid abroad 13.8 9.5% Other 7.1 4.9% Prior year taxes (5.7) (3.9%) Total 59.4 40.7%

The tax expense for the year is greater than the theoretical amount and is affected by the temporary non-recovery in Italy of taxes paid abroad under the law of the countries in which the company operates. This is mainly due to the mismatch between the taxable profit earned 298 abroad and, in particular, that earned in Italy, which the company calculates, together with those of its Italian subsidiaries (the “national consolidation tax system”). In 2008, the IRES tax base is negative and, therefore, foreign taxes cannot be recovered. However their future recovery is still possible in accordance with current tax legislation. The following table shows the reconciliation of the theoretical IRAP tax rate and the effective tax rate:

IRAP (Euro/m) % Operating profit 138.7 Personnel expenses 120.4 Net operating profit 259.1 Theoretical tax expense 10.1 3.9% Tax effect of foreign production (5.6) (2.2%) Tax effect of permanent differences (0.9) 0.3% Total 3.6 1.4%

15. Related party transactions With reference to related party transactions affecting the income statement of Impregilo S.p.A. and the disclosure required by Consob communication no. 15519 of 27 July 2006, we note that company’s production is carried out mainly through special purpose entities (consortia and joint ventures). Since these companies operate on the basis of the reallocation of costs and revenue, they can be considered to be “transparent” with their investors, which take on the main obligations to their customers and suppliers. Therefore, revenue and costs reallocated by the special purpose entities have been considered similar to those from/to third parties and, hence, not classified as related party transactions.

The key related party transactions, as defined by IAS 24 and group policies, carried out in 2008 are summarised below:

(amounts in Euros for Impregilo) 31 December 2008 Related party Receivables Payables Revenue Costs Financial Cash flows income for the year (expense) Impresa Grassetto S.p.A. - 17,666,518 - - - - Total 17,666,518

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO Separate financial statements of Impregilo S.p.A. as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008

The above transactions are governed by specific agreements and carried out on an arm’s length basis. Their effects on the balance sheet and income statement are shown together with the related contract. Their impact on the company’s financial position and results of operations is summarised in the above table. Such payable is due to Impresa Grassetto S.p.A. following the acquisition of the high speed/capacity business units of Cociv. Reference should be made to the annex “Intragroup transactions” to these notes and these notes for further details on intragroup transactions.

16. Significant non-recurring events and transactions No significant non-recurring events or transactions took place in 2008.

17. Balances or transactions arising from atypical and/or unusual transactions Impregilo did not carry out any atypical and/or unusual transactions, as defined in the Consob communication no. DEM/60642932(3) during the year. 300

On behalf of the board of directors Chairman (signed on the original)

3) Atypical and/or unusual transactions are those that, due to their significance and relevance, the counterparty, the object of the transaction, exchange pricing and timing, may cast doubts as to the accuracy and completeness of disclosures, conflict of interest, protection of the group’s assets and minority interests.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF STATUTORY AUDITORS

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF IMPREGILO S.p.A.

PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 153 OF LEGISLATIVE DECREE NO. 58/1998

AND PARAGRAPH 3, ARTICLE 2429 OF THE ITALIAN CIVIL CODE 342 Dear shareholders,

Pursuant to ruling legislation covering public companies listed on regulated markets and in

accordance with the Italian Civil Code requirements, we inform you that we performed the

supervisory activities based on the conduct standards recommended by the Italian Accounting

Profession (Consiglio Nazionali dei Dottori Commercialisti e Esperti contabili) during 2008.

Specifically, and considering the guidelines set out by Consob (the Italian Commission for Listed

Companies and the Stock Exchange) in its communications, we:

- took part in the meetings of the board of directors, executive committee, internal control committee

and remuneration committee;

- met with the internal control head on several occasions to exchange information about our

activities and control programmes; - performed the periodic tests;

- exchanged information with the chairpersons of the boards of statutory auditors or supervisory body members of the main subsidiaries;

- examined the audit register of the independent auditors during their audit work and met with those in charge of the audit periodically;

- monitored the events in which the parent and group were involved on an ongoing basis.

Upon conclusion of our work, we would like to draw your attention to the following:

1. Significant financial or capital transactions

The directors informed us periodically about the operations and key transactions undertaken by the company and its subsidiaries. They also described such operations and transactions in their report with details of their characteristics and effects. 343 We obtained adequate information about them in order to be in a position to ensure their compliance with the law, by-laws and correct administration standards.

2. Atypical and/or unusual transactions, intragroup transactions or related party transactions

We did not identify nor were we informed by the directors, independent auditors or internal control head about any atypical and/or unusual transactions carried out with third parties, related parties or other group companies.

3. Adequacy of information provided in the directors’ report about atypical and/or unusual transactions, intragroup transactions or related party transactions.

The directors described the day-to-day transactions carried out during the year with group companies and related parties in the notes to the separate financial statements to which reference should be made, also for details about their characteristics and financial effects. We checked the

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO existence of and compliance with procedures aimed at ensuring that these transactions were carried

out in line with suitable conditions and in the interests of the company.

4. Comments on and proposals about the findings and disclosures in the independent

auditors’ report

The independent auditors issued an unqualified report on the separate financial statements. They

stated that the financial statements comply with the regulations governing their preparation and

included two emphasis of matter paragraphs with which we agree. These are set out in point 21 of

this report.

5. Complaints as per article 2408 of the Italian Civil Code

No such complaints were received.

6. Communications presented 344 No communications were presented.

7. Engagement of independent auditors

10. Frequency of attendance at company body meetings

We took part in nine meetings of the board of directors, six of the executive committee and held

seven board of statutory auditors’ meetings.

11. Independence requirements of the directors and statutory auditors

We checked the correct application of the criteria and procedures used by the board of directors to

assess the independence of its members.

the Code of Conduct throughout 2008.

12. Compliance with correct administration standards 346 We have no comments to make about compliance with such standards based on our work.

13. Adequacy of the organisational structure

We believe that the company’s organisational structure is adequate given its size and type of

activities.

We supervised, tested and checked the adequacy of the internal control system. Specifically:

a. we regularly obtained information about the operations carried out during the meetings of the

internal control committee, through meetings with the internal control head and by obtaining

specific periodic documentation;

b. we were provided with the internal control head’s report which summarised his/her activities,

principally aimed at ensuring compliance with and the adequacy of the group’s internal control system. This entailed our performing tests at different internal levels at the company’s outlying and corporate offices; c. we were provided with the supervisory body’s reports required by Legislative decree no. 231/2001 which summarise its activities for the year.

To the extent of its duties, this board holds that the “Organisational, management and control model” is suitable to prevent the crimes covered by the aforesaid Legislative decree.

15. Adequacy of the administrative-accounting system and its reliability

We monitored and tested the adequacy of the administrative-accounting system and its ability to correctly show the company’s operations of the year by obtaining information from the different department heads, reviewing internal documentation and analysing the findings of the work performed by the independent auditors. 347 16. Adequacy of the instructions given to subsidiaries

We believe that the instructions issued by the company to its subsidiaries pursuant to paragraph 2, article 114 of Legislative decree no. 58/1998 are adequate to ensure compliance with the legal disclosure requirements.

17. Issues which arose during meetings with the independent auditors

No issues arose during the meetings with the independent auditors, held in accordance with article

150 of Legislative decree no. 58/1998.

18. Compliance with the Code of Conduct of the Corporate Governance Committee of Listed companies

The company has complied with this Code of Conduct.

The internal control committee met eight times while the remuneration committee held two meetings.

2008 Annual Report IMPREGILO 19. Corporate governance report

As required by the Consolidated Finance Act and article 89-bis of the Consob Issuer Regulation, the

company prepared and published the subject report and included it in the directors’ report.

20. The annex hereto sets out the list of offices held by the standing statutory auditors as required

by article 144-quinquiesdecies of Consob resolution no. 11971/99.

21 Assessment of the supervisory activities.

As noted, no reprehensible behaviour, omissions or irregularities were noted during our work that

would require communication to the supervisory bodies.

However, we note:

1. We have monitored the developments of the USW Campania project (described in detail in the

directors’ report) on an ongoing basis, also through meetings with the department heads and the 348 boards of statutory auditors of FIBE S.p.A., FIBE Campania S.p.A. and FISIA Italimpianti S.p.A..

We agree with the directors about the existence of significant, unquantifiable contingencies due to

the complexity of the issues and complex procedures in place for the recovery of the outstanding

receivables.

The directors have deemed it reasonable and prudent to maintain a provision for risks of euro 50

million and have explained the reasons therefor.

2. The directors have provided detailed information about the status of the proceedings with the

Court of Florence and events that have taken place after the reporting date in their report.

22. Proposals to the shareholders

To the extent we are concerned, nothing has come to our attention that would hinder the approval of the financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2008 and we agree with the proposals made by the directors.
