Since April 2004, Terna adopted a code of conduct regarding internal dealing, to guarantee transparency toward the market for its significant transactions based on the acquisition, sale, subscription and exchange of Terna’s shares, or of financial tools linked to them that are carried out, either directly or indirectly, by persons holding relevant decision-making powers within the company and that have access to price sensitive information (“relevant persons”).
Subsequently to the entrance into effect of the new internal dealing regulations introduced by Law No. 62 dated April 18, 2005 (“EU Law 2004” that integrated the provisions of art . 114 of the Consolidated Financial Text) and by the relative implementing regulations (Articles 152 sexies to 152 octies and Attachment 6 of Consob Regulation No. 11971/1999 so-called Issuer’s Regulation), Terna adopted a specific internal Procedure for identifying Terna’s “relevant persons” and for managing, handling and announcing to the market information regarding financial transactions carried out by such persons.
As part of this procedure, recently updated on March 19, 2010, Terna deemed it appropriate to maintain for the “relevant persons” identified, the obligation to refrain from conducting, either directly or indirectly, transactions that are subject to internal dealing regulations during two blocking periods identified at the time of approval of the draft financial statements and of the half- year report on the part of Terna’s Board of Directors.
