(incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Republic of Italy) €2,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme Under the €2,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme (the “Programme”) described in this Base Prospectus, SIAS S.p.A. (“SIAS” or the “Issuer”), subject to all applicable legal and regulatory requirements, may from time to time issue notes in bearer form and in any currency agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer(s) (as defined below) (the “Notes”). The maximum aggregate nominal amount of all Notes from time to time outstanding under the Programme will not exceed €2,000,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies at the date of issue), save that the maximum aggregate principal amount may be increased from time to time, subject to compliance with the relevant provisions of the Programme and applicable laws and regulations in force from time to time. Notes will be issued in Series and, in the case of Secured Notes (as defined below), will be subject to, and have the benefit of, (i) an Italian law-governed intercreditor agreement dated 8 October 2010 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”) between, inter alios, the Issuer, Mediobanca – Banca di Credito Finanziario S.p.A. as intercreditor agent (the “Intercreditor Agent”), Deutsche Trustee Company Limited as trustee (the “Trustee”) and the other Secured Creditors (as defined below) and (ii) one or more Italian law-governed deeds of pledge over the Issuer’s receivables and monetary claims (crediti pecuniari) arising pursuant to the Intercompany Loans (as defined below) granted out of the proceeds of the Secured Notes (the “Deeds of Pledge”) to be entered into by the Issuer in favour of the holders of the relevant Series of Secured Notes and the Trustee on or about the date of issue of each Series of Secured Notes. Pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, proceeds from the enforcement of the Security Interests created pursuant to the Deeds of Pledge will be shared pro rata among the Secured Creditors who have enforced their respective Security Interests against the Issuer pursuant to the Security Documents (as defined below) (See Condition 5 “Special Provisions of Secured Notes” below). Investing in Notes issued under the Programme involves certain risks. For a discussion of these risks, see “Risk Factors” beginning on page 1 below. The Base Prospectus has been approved by the Central Bank of Ireland (the “Central Bank”), as competent authority under Directive 2003/71/EC, as amended (including by Directive 2010/73/EU), to the extent that such amendments have been implemented in the relevant member state of the European Economic Area (the “Prospectus Directive”). The Central Bank only approves this Base Prospectus as meeting the requirements imposed under Irish and EU law pursuant to the Prospectus Directive. Such approval relates only to the Notes which are to be admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Irish Stock Exchange or other regulated markets for the purposes of Directive 2004/39/EC or which are to be offered to the public in any member state of the European Economic Area. Application has been made to the Irish Stock Exchange for the Notes to be admitted to the Official List and trading on its regulated market. The Programme also permits Notes to be issued on the basis that they will not be admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation by any competent authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system or to be admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation by such other or further competent authorities, stock exchanges and/or quotation systems as may be agreed with the Issuer. SIAS’s long-term senior secured debt is currently rated Baa2 (stable outlook) by Moody’s Investors Service Ltd. (“Moody’s”) and BBB+ (stable outlook) by Fitch Italia S.p.A. (“Fitch”). SIAS’s long-term senior unsecured debt is currently rated (P)Baa3 (stable outlook) by Moody’s and BBB (stable outlook) by Fitch. Each of Moody’s and Fitch is established in the European Union and registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 (as amended) (the “CRA Regulation”) and as such is included in the list of credit rating agencies published by the European Securities and Markets Authority on its website (at http://www.esma.europa.eu/page/List-registered-and-certified-CRAs) in accordance with the CRA Regulation. Tranches of Notes to be issued under the Programme will be rated or unrated. Where a Tranche of Notes is to be rated, such rating will not necessarily be the same as the rating assigned to the Issuer or to Notes already issued. Where a Tranche of Notes is rated, the applicable rating(s) will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Whether or not a rating in relation to any Tranche of Notes will be treated as having been issued by a credit rating agency established in the European Union and registered under the CRA Regulation will be disclosed in the relevant Final Terms. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. The Notes may be issued on a continuing basis to one or more of the Dealers named below and any additional Dealer appointed under the Programme from time to time by the Issuer (each a “Dealer” and together the “Dealers”), which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis. References in this Base Prospectus to the “relevant Dealer” shall, in the case of an issue of Notes being (or intended to be) subscribed by more than one Dealer, be to all Dealers agreeing to subscribe such Notes.
