Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”) generated a profit before tax of about 1.8 million Euro. The net equity as of June 30, 2012 amounted at about 189.8 million Euro, after having distributed in May about 4.7 million Euro in reserves and dividends. As well known, and as further demonstrated during 2011, the relevance of the half-yearly trend, is not significant of a foreseeable development of activities on an annual basis from an economic and financial point of view, and therefore, even if this semester’s results were similar to those of the same period of 2011, it is difficult to foresee the evolution of the business in the second semester, given the permanence of the volatility in the markets. The most important aspect is that the majority of the investee companies continue to perform well, given essentially to the level of technology, the leadership position and the geographical diversification of the revenues of many of them. Differently from what happened in the first semester of 2011, TIP has neither carried out relevant investments or significant disinvestments in this last half-yearly period. The evolution of the international economic conditions and their projections have suggested to keep a very cautious approach and the most relevant and worrying aspect, besides the risks concerning the Euro area, concerns the decline of the aggregated demand almost everywhere worldwide. In these last days the International Monetary Fund has lowered the expected global GDP growth in 2012 at 3.9%, slightly lower than the previous estimate of 4.1%. This fact, while representing a decrease, from many points of view is encouraging, since a global growth rate of about 4% does not confirm the perceptions of a global recessions expected by many analysts and economists. It should be evaluated if, in the second half of the year, it may occur that orders fall, caused by a further decline of the demand, foreseen by many, that is starting to impact some companies and that may have an effect during the last months of the year and, more likely, in 2013. In any case TIP’s investment strategy will be characterized by great prudence also in the second half of the year. In the first six months TIP generated revenues from advisory services for about 1 million Euro, dividends for about 1.7 million Euro and gains on securities – consisting on valuation adjustments compared to December 31 2011 and interests – of more than 1 million Euro. On the other hand, alignments were performed on stocks with an impact on the half yearly financial statement for a little less than 0.5 million Euro. Expenses have been in line with the previous year. Among the transactions that TIP has carried out in this period it should be noted the capital increase of NoemaLife, which allowed the company to finance, with their own financial means, the acquisition carried out in France at the

Page 5: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

end of 2011. In the context of this operation TIP advised NoemaLife in the acquisition, it has provided the financing before the execution of the capital increase, has identified the shareholders also for the controlling holding company and finally has guaranteed and executed, as advisor, the capital increase which ended with adhesions of about 90%. In these days TIP closed a similar transaction for the investee company Servizi Italia S.p.A., similarly conceived to fund an acquisition outside Italy. In the first semester the advisory sector has not closed any operation of Mergers & Acquisitions and therefore the success fees were nil. In the equity part of the business, no major transactions were carried out during the period, except for the purchase – through capital increase – of the 30% of capital of the German advisory firm Gatti & Co Gmbh, that has been monitored for a long time in order to allow TIP and its network of companies and entrepreneurs to obtain a more incisive presence in Germany. To be noted also the issuance of the 40 million Euro seven-years partially convertible bond, of which 5 million Euro have already been called. In the period it has continued the purchase of treasury shares which as of June 30 amounted at 1.573% of the total share capital. Compared to December 31 2011 the company’s equity increased from 175.1 million Euro to about 190 million Euro, due to the increase in the share price of some of the main investee listed companies. The values at June 30 2012 of available-for-sale securities in unlisted companies have not changed with respect to the values at December 31 2011 since no information emerged which would alter the fundamental parameters on which the evaluation at the end of the previous year was based on. An increase was also recorded in relation to the subsidiary Clubtre S.r.l. deriving from the increase in fair value of the stake in Prysmian S.p.A. The net financial position at June 30 2012 was negative at approximately 3.6 million Euro. INVESTMENTS At June 30th, 2012 TIP held shares in the companies indicated below. The financial data, where available, refer to the 2011 annual financial statements projects approved by the Boards of Directors of the investee companies;where these were unavailable, to previous quarterly reports or annual financial statements.

acquisitions market both in Italy and abroad - has been positive for the advisory activity, with total revenue of approximately 1 million Euro, even without any success fees. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Transactions with related parties are detailed in note (35) in the financial statements.

EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER 30 JUNE 2012 Any relevant event occurred in the period from June 30 2012 and the date of approval of this report. FORESEEABLE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT The majority of the main investee companies does not show major decreases both in terms of revenues and orders that might lead to predict relevant economic problems in the second semester and therefore we believe that, in the presence of an inertial performance with respect to the previous months, the year could be satisfying for many of these companies. With regards to the advisory business the workload is intense on several fronts and the auspice is that of having a better second semester. Concerning the stock prices of the investee listed companies and the prices of the bonds held, it is very difficult to foresee their trend. On March 15th 2012, TIP Board of Directors approved the proposal for the exercise of the proxy conferred by the Shareholders’ Meeting of February 26th 2010 related to the issue of convertible bonds (with the exclusion of the option right and fully guaranteed by “ex SeconTip” shareholders) of 40 million Euro, with a seven years tenor and a fixed interest rate of 4.25%, a bullet reimbursement scheme and a conversion rate of 20% (and consequent increase of capital to be used for the partial conversion of the same). Calls may be made in one or more tranches within June 30th 2013; the amount of each tranche will be of 5 million Euro or multiples. A first tranche of nominal 5 million Euro has been already called. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES During the year, the company did not incur research and development costs. TREASURY SHARES Treasury shares in portfolio at 30 June 2012 were n. 2,140,473 (N. 1,705,332 as of December 31st 2011). Treasury shares in portfolio at August 2nd 2011 are n. 2,173,402.

DISCLOSURES TO THE HALF YEARLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT JUNE 30, 2012 (1) Company business activities TIP is an independent investment / merchant bank, focused on medium-sized Italian companies, that is active in:

- minority investments, as an active investor in listed and unlisted companies able to express “excellence” in their respective sectors;

- advisory activities in corporate finance transactions, through Tamburi & Associati division (T&A);

- secondary private equity activities: investing in equities held by private equity funds, banks, financial or insurance companies and purchasing stakes of entities that operate in the private equity sector or similar activities.

(2) Accounting policies The company was incorporated as a joint-stock company under Italian law and its registered office is based in Italy. The company was listed in November 2005 on the Expandi market, organized and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. On December 20th, 2010 Borsa Italiana S.p.A. gave the qualification for the STAR segment to TIP’s ordinary shares. The half yearly financial statements as of June 30th, 2012 have been approved by the Board of Directors on August 3rd, 2012. The half yearly financial statements as of June 30th, 2012 have been prepared on a going concern basis and according to the valuation and presentation criteria established by the International Financial Reporting Standards and the International Accounting Standards (referred to as “Ifrs” and “Ias”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and according to the related interpretation by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), and endorsed by the European Union commission with regulation 1725/2003 and subsequent amendments, pursuant to regulation 1606/2002 of the European Parliament. In accordance with IAS 1, the half yearly financial statements consist of the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the balance sheet, the statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and the disclosures and it’s accompanied by the directors report. The financial statements have been drawn up in euro, without decimals. Financial statements have been prepared according IAS 1, while disclosures have been prepared in an abbreviated form, applying the option provided by IAS 34, so they do not include all the information required for an annual report issued according IFRS principles. Presentation and disclosures concerning financial instruments are based on the requirements of IAS 32, as amended and supplemented by IFRS 7. During the half year, no exceptional cases occurred to make the use of the exceptions included in IAS 1 as necessary.

The half yearly financial statements as of June 30th, 2012 have been prepared on a cost basis, with the exception of derivative financial instruments, investments in associates that are measured using the equity method or the fair value method and the current financial assets and AFS financial assets that are measured at fair value. Preparation of the half yearly financial statements requires the formulation od judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and revenues. These estimates and related assumptions are based on previous experience and other factors deemed reasonable in the circumstances. However, since estimates are involved, the actual results will not necessarily be the same as those shown herein. Estimates have been used to recognize allowances for impairment, the fair value of financial instruments, impairment test, employee benefits and taxes. The main accounting policies adopted in the drawing up of the half yearly financial statements, as well as the content and the variations of the individual captions, are detailed hereunder. New accounting standards The new documentation issued by IASB and approved and endorsed by the EU, as applicable to these half yearly financial statements, is the following:

- IFRS 7 “Financial instruments: additional information” transfer of financial assets. The amendments to this accounting standard have been issued to allow users of the statements to understand the relationships between the financial assets which have been transferred, non entirely eliminated, and the related liabilities, and to evaluate the nature and related risks of the residual involvement (“continuing involvement”) of the entity in the eliminated financial assets. The amendments to IFRS 7 are mandatorily applied to the financial statements of the financial years starting in or after July 1st, 2011.

The IASB and the IFRIC have both approved some modifications to existing standards and issued new IFRS and new IFRIC. As the effective date of these documents is deferred, they have not been adopted in the preparation of these half yearly financial statements.

The main changes relate to:

- IAS 1 “Statements presentation”: the entries relative to the amounts of the other components of the comprehensive income statement of the period have to be separated in components which will never be classified in the income (loss) of the period and components which may subsequently be classified in the income (loss) of the period. The new IAS 1 is applied for the financial years starting from July 1 2012.

- IAS 19 “Employees benefits”: the standard has been subjected to an accounting amendment. The new IAS 19 is applied in the financial years starting from January 1st 2013.

- IFRS 9 “Financial instruments”: is the new standard issued on November 12nd 2009 that

Page 20: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

TAMBURI INVESTMENT PARTNERS S.P.A.

Page 20

marks completion of the first step of a 3-steps project for the total replacement of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”. The effective date for mandatory adoption of IFRS 9 has been postponed to January 1st 2015.

- IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements, IAS 27 - Separate Financial Statements, IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Venture, issued in May 2011 regulate the preparation of the separated and consolidated financial statements; these have to be applied to the statements starting from January 1 st 2013.

- IFRS 12 “Disclosure of interests in other entities”: The standard, issued by the IASB in May 2011 and applicable from 10th January 2013, specifically requires additional information to be provided for each kind of investment, including subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements, special purpose entities and other unconsolidated structured entities;

- IFRS 13 “Fair value measurement”: the standard, issued by the IASB in May 2011 and applicable from 10 January 2013, defines fair value, clarifies how it is to be determined and introduces disclosure common to all assets valued at fair value. The standard applies to all transactions or balances when another standard requires or permits the measurement at fair value.

Accounting policies The accounting policies used to draw up the half yearly financial statements at June 30th, 2012 are shown below: PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost, inclusive of ancillary costs directly attributable thereto and necessary to bring the asset to working condition for the intended use for which it was purchased. If significant components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, these components are accounted separately. Property, plant and equipment are recognized net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses calculated according to the methods described later on. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis according to the asset’s estimated useful life, which is reviewed annually. Any changes, when necessary, are applied prospectively. The main depreciation rates used are the followings: - Furniture and fixtures 12% - Electronic office equipment 20% - Mobile telephones 20% - Equipment 15% - Cars 25% The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is regularly tested for impairment, if events or changes in circumstances suggest that it is not recoverable. If such indication exists and if the carrying amount exceeds the expected recoverable amount, the assets are impaired to reflect

Page 21: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

Page 21

their recoverable amount. Their recoverable amount is the higher of their net selling price and value in use. In defining value in use, expected future cash flows are discounted to present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market estimate of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement under depreciation, amortization and impairment losses. These impairment losses are reversed if the reasons causing them cease to exist. When an asset is sold, or when its use is not expected to generate future economic benefits, it is derecognized and any loss or profit (calculated as the difference between the disposal value and carrying amount) is immediately recognized in the income statement. GOODWILL Business combinations are accounted applying the purchase method. Goodwill is the excess of purchase cost over the acquirer’s share of the net fair value of identifiable assets and of present and contingent liabilities. After initial recognition, goodwill is decreased by any cumulative impairment losses, calculated using the methods described later on. Goodwill stemming from acquisitions made prior to January 1st, 2004 is recognized at deemed cost, i.e., its carrying amount in the last set of annual financial statements prepared in accordance with previously applied accounting policies (December 31st, 2003). When the IFRS-compliant opening balance sheet was prepared, acquisitions completed before January 1st, 2004 were not restated. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances occur that may cause impairment losses to emerge. At the acquisition date, any goodwill is allocated to each of the cash-generating units (CGUs) that are expected to benefit from the acquisition’s effects. Any impairment loss is identified by considering each CGU’s ability to generate cash flows able to recover the portion of goodwill allocated thereto, using the methods indicated earlier in the section on Property, plant and equipment. If the CGU’s recoverable amount is lower than the carrying amount attributed thereto, the related impairment loss is recognized. This impairment loss is not reversed if the reasons causing it cease to exist. OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Other intangible assets are recognized at cost, calculated using the same approach detailed for property, plant and equipment. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are recognized net of their related accumulated amortization and any impairment losses calculated in the same way as previously detailed for property, plant and equipment. Useful life is reviewed annually and any changes, when necessary, are applied prospectively. Gains or losses arising from disposal of an intangible asset are calculated as the difference between the asset’s disposal value and carrying amount and they are recognized in profit or loss at the time of disposal.

EQUITY-ACCOUNTED INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATES Associates are entities over whose financial and operating policy decision the company exercises significant influence, even without owning control. Significant influence is assumed to exist when the company exercises between 20% and 50% of another entity’s voting rights (between 10% and 50% if the company is listed). Associates, in the financial statements, are measured using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost. Investments include goodwill identified at the time of acquisition, net of any cumulative impairment losses. The consolidated financial statements comprise the relevant share of the profits or losses of equity-accounted investees, net of the adjustments necessary to align accounting standards, from when the significant influence or joint control commences to when such influence or control ceases to exist. When the share of the relevant losses of an equity-accounted investee exceeds the relevant investment’s carrying amount, the investment is fully impaired and the share of any further losses is not recognized, except when the company has taken on a legal or implicit obligation or has made payments on the investee’s behalf. INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE Investments in associates in the “business turnaround” segment, included in the venture capital area, are measured at fair value through profit or loss. NON-CURRENT AVAILABLE FOR SALE FINANCIAL ASSETS Available for sale financial assets (AFS financial assets) consist of investments in other companies. They are measured at fair value and any fair value gains or losses are recognized in equity. If the fair value loss is an impairment loss, this is recognized in the income statement. If the conditions leading to the recognition of the impairment loss cease to exist, the reversal of the impairment loss is recognized in equity. In the case of equity instruments listed on active markets, the fair value is identified as the stock-exchange price at the reporting date and, in the case of equity instruments in unlisted companies, the fair value is identified as the value in use based on valuation techniques. These valuation techniques include comparison with values emerging in recent similar transactions and other valuation techniques based substantially on an analysis of the investee’s ability to generate future cash flows, discounted to present value to reflect the time value of money and the specific risks of the business activity. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a price quoted on a regulated market, and whose fair value cannot be measured reliably, are measured at cost. The company considered objective evidence of impairment of its equity instruments listed on active markets – in relation to the nature of its investment portfolio featuring Italian small-mid caps –the presence of a market price as at reporting date of at least 50% lower than the original purchase price or the prolonged presence, for over 18 months, of a market value below cost. In any case, the company analyses also those equity instruments falling within the above threshold and – where deemed appropriate – recognizes impairment losses thereon. In the case of companies whose instruments are considered illiquid, for which, the absence of an

Page 23: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

Page 23

active market, in both relative to company’s capital and absolute terms, has been verified, the following criterion is applied. A technical valuation of the companies is performed. This is mostly based on a comparison with the market multiples underlying companies with similar characteristics (and obviously considered “liquid”) or is substantially based on an analysis of the investee’s ability to generate future cash flows, discounted to reflect the time value of money and the specific risks of the business activity concerned. For the purpose of checking the absence of an active market, comparative analyses are carried out with reference to the following indexes, which are calculated on an annual basis:

• daily % of average value of trades/ capitalization: < 0.05%; • daily equivalent value of trades (Euro): < 50,000 Euro; • daily bid-ask spread:>= 3%; • maximum number of consecutive days with unvaried prices:>3; • % of trading days: < 100%.

TRADE RECEIVABLES, LOANS AND RECEIVABLES They are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. They are eventually adjusted as appropriate for sums considered as uncollectible. CURRENT FINANCIAL ASSETS AND CURRENT AFS FINANCIAL ASSETS Current financial assets consist of securities that are short-term investments of cash. They are therefore classified as held for trading and measured at fair value thorough profit or loss. Purchases and sales of securities are recognized and derecognized on the settlement date. CASH & CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents comprise numerical values, those values which fulfill short-term availability requirement and success and absence of collection costs. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, net cash & cash equivalents consist of cash & cash equivalents net of bank overdrafts at the reporting date. TRADE PAYABLES AND LOANS Trade payables and loans are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. In particular regarding the convertible bond issued in the second quarter of 2012, the company has reported, based on the instructions of IAS 32, separately the component which generate the financial liability (valued at the depreciated cost) and has decoupled the implicit option granted to the owner of the instrument to convert a portion of the loan in an equity instrument. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AND PERSONNEL EXPENSE The employee benefits payable on or at the end of the employment relationship through defined benefit plans are recognized over the vesting period. The liability related to defined benefit plans, net of any plan assets, is determined on actuarial assumptions and is recorded on an accruals basis in line with the services rendered to obtain the benefits; the valuation of the liability is made by independent actuaries.

Page 24: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

The Company provides additional benefits to certain employees through a stock option plan.

In accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based payments – these plans are a component of the beneficiaries’ remuneration. Therefore, the related cost is represented by the stock options’ fair value at the grant date and it is recognized in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period between the grant date and the maturity, offsetting the corresponding liability.

OWN SHARES Own shares owned by the company are recognized as a reduction in equity. The original cost of the own shares and any profit deriving from their subsequent sale are also recognized in equity. REVENUE Revenue is recognized to the extent that its fair value can be reliably determined and it is probable that related economic benefits will be enjoyed. According to the type of transaction, revenues are recognized as follows:

- Revenues from advisory / investment banking services are recognized based on the activities’ stage of completion. For practical reasons, when services are rendered via an indeterminate number of actions in a definite period of time, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the definite period, unless it is evident that other methods provide better representation of such services’ stage of completion;

- Success fees that accrue upon performance of a significant action are recognized as revenue when the significant action has been completed.

If it is not possible to measure the fair value of revenue reliably, revenue is recognized to the extent of costs borne which are deemed to be recoverable. GAINS AND LOSSES FROM THE SALE OF INVESTMENTS AND SECURITIES Gains and losses arising from the sale of investments and securities are recognized on an accruals basis, also transferring any in fair value gains or losses previously recognized in equity to profit or loss. FINANCIAL INCOME AND EXPENSES Financial income and expenses are recognized on an accruals basis according to interest accruing on the carrying amount of the related financial assets and liabilities using the effective interest method. DIVIDENDS Dividends are recognized when the shareholders’ right to receive their payment is established. Dividends received from equity-accounted investees, are recognized as a reduction in the investment’s carrying amount. INCOME TAXES Current income taxes for the period are calculated on the basis of the estimated taxable income and in compliance with current regulations. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are calculated on the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the relevant tax

Page 25: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

Page 25

bases. Deferred tax assets are recognized when their recovery is considered probable, i.e., when there are expected to be sufficient future tax profits to enable the realisation of these assets. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date. 3) Basis of presentation The choices made by the company as regards intermediate financial statement presentation are summarized as follows:

- Statement of financial position: according to Revised IAS 1, assets and liabilities should be classified as current and non-current or, alternatively, according to order of liquidity. The company has opted for the current/non-current classification;

- Income statement and statement of comprehensive income: Revised IAS 1 alternatively requires classification of captions based on either their nature or function. The company has decided to use the classification based on their nature;

- Statement of cash flows: in accordance with IAS 7, the statement of cash flows presents

cash flows for the year, allocating them to operating, investing and financing activities. (4) Segment reporting The company operates in the investment banking and merchant banking. The activities performed by top management in these business areas, in terms of marketing initiatives, outward institutional initiatives and involvement in the various deals, are highly integrated. Furthermore, also as regards the execution activity, this has been organized with the purpose of adding flexibility to the use of “on-call” analysts when needed in advisory or equity activities. Due to this choice, it is impossible to provide separate operating and financial presentation of the different business segments. This is because splitting the cost of the work of top management and analysts based on a series of estimates, linked in turn to parameters that may be overcome by effective efficiency, would lead to significant distortion of business segments’ profitability, thus making such information meaningless. In this half yearly report are only provided details of revenues from sales and services of the advisory segment, excluding the item “other revenues”: (Euro) June 30th, 2012 June 30th, 2011Revenues from sales and services 998,982 1,329,174

In order to encourage the company management to attain the objective of creating value for the shareholders, a stock option plan approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting on April 29th 2011 is currently in place. The Board of Directors of TIP subsequently defined and regulated – on August 4th 2011 – the terms, conditions and procedures of execution of the plan. More specifically, it resolved:

- (g) to set that the maximum number of 5,000,000 Options will be divided amongst Beneficiaries as follows: - total n. 4,950,000 to Executive Directors and Employees; - maximum n. 50,000 to other Beneficiaries to be identified afterwards amongst

Employees who hold important roles or serve important functions in TIP. In the half yearly financial statements as of June 30 th, 2012 – in accordance with IFRS 2 – options granted have been valued according to the cash settlement methodology; they have been measured at fair value recognized in the income statement as an increase in the personnel expense and directors fees in offsetting liabilities with directors and employees. Changes in the fair value related to liabilities with directors and employees are reported in the income statement. The fair value of the options is determined using the applicable valuation method (in this case “Black & Scholes”), taking into account the terms and conditions under which the options were granted. The stock options’ fair value and the actuarial assumptions used for the application of the model are as follows: TIP Share Price at June 29th 2012 1.469Option strike price 1.5First day for option exercise Jan-1st-14Last day for option exercise Jun-30st-15Historical Star Index volatility average (3 years) 16.83%Expected Dividend yield average (with respect to share price) 2.50%Interest Rate Swap Euribor (June 2015) 0.95%Outstanding options (no.) 4,950,000.00Newly issued shares per option(no.) 1.00Shares issued 136,046,763.00

Under these estimates the total cost to be included in the personnel expense for the first semester of 2012 is equal to 28,062 Euros. At June 30 th 2012, the company’s headcount was as follows: June 30th, 2012 June 30th, 2011Clerks 5 7Junior managers 4 4Managers 2 2Totale 11 13

The movements in investments measured at fair value are detailed in attachment 2. With regard to the measurement of investments in listed companies, please refer to notes (9) and (24). With reference to the available for sale financial assets represented by non-controlling interests in listed companies, these are measured at fair value with fair value gains or losses recognized in net equity. The fair value of investments in companies listed in an active market was identified as their stock market value at the reporting date. If a decrease in their fair value over their cost constitutes an impairment loss, this effect is recognized in the income statement. Following a comparative analysis of the liquidity indexes shown in the section on “Accounting policies – Non-current Available for Sale financial assets” of these notes, the following investments have been considered illiquid: Bolzoni S.p.A., Valsoia S.p.A., Noemalife S.p.A., Monrif S.p.A. and d’Amico International Shipping S.A. In these cases, technical valuations of the companies based on their capability to generate cash flows in the future (temporarily discounted to reflect the time value of money and specific risks of the business) have been carried out. When applicable and as “control” method, the market multiples methodology related to comparable companies (and obviously considered “liquid”) has been applied. This analysis produced an update of the companies’ fair value. With reference to each company, valuation criteria and adopted parameters are listed below:

Bolzoni S.p.A. In order to measure the investment in Bolzoni S.p.A., it has been considered proper to use the Discounted Cash Flow valuation method applied to 2012 - 2014 company results expected by analysts. The valuation was conducted on the basis of the following parameters: (i) levered beta of 1.24, (ii) free risk rate of 5.93%, (iii) market risk premium of 5.00%, (iv) cost of equity of 12.11%, (v) cost of debt of 6.50%, (vi) WACC of 9.70% and (vii) terminal value perpetuity of 1.00%. For information purposes only, we note that, also at December 31st2011, the investment in Bolzoni S.p.A. was measured using the Discounted Cash Flow method based on a WACC of 8.09%. For mere “control” purposes, some other valuations of Bolzoni S.p.A. based on the market multiples method have been carried out. The results of these tests have largely confirmed the findings of the Discounted Cash Flow method. d’Amico International Shipping S.A. In order to value the d’Amico International Shipping S.A. investment, it has been considered correct to use the Discounted Cash Flow valuation method applied to 2012 - 2016 company

Page 34: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

TAMBURI INVESTMENT PARTNERS S.P.A.

Page 34

results expected on the basis of TIP estimations. The valuation was conducted on the basis of the following elements: (i) levered beta of 1.41, (ii) free risk rate of 5.93%, (iii) market risk premium of 7.00%, (iv) cost of equity of 15.82%, (v) cost of debt of 6.50%, (vi) WACC of 11.02% and (vii) terminal value perpetuity of 1.00%. For information purposes only, we note that, even at December 31st2011, the investment in d’Amico International Shipping S.A. was liquid and therefore valued at the market fair value. Monrif S.p.A. In order to measure the investment in Monrif S.p.A., also taking into account its nature as a holding company as well as the significant real estate assets owned, it has been considered appropriate to use a valuation method based on the adjusted net equity. In particular, the carrying amount of Monrif’s net equity has been adjusted to take into account the hidden gains in land and property for residential and commercial use (“real estate assets managed”) and in real estate assets dedicated to the hotel business, compared to their carrying amounts. It has been however considered appropriate – in a prudent view –not to make any adjustments to the carrying amount of the publishing business. Compared to the accounting data, the valuation has assigned an overall higher value of 36.8 million Euro to the real estate assets managed and of 43.4 million Euro to the real estate assets related to the hotel business. The valuations at the base of these gains are based on documents and information available to TIP and in particular:

(i) market appraisals of the real estate assets managed are based primarily on estimates carried out on detailed information obtained by TIP and related to the single properties belonging to Monrif group companies: Poligrafici Editoriale S.p.A., Poligrafici Real Estate S.p.A. and CAFI S.r.l.;

(ii) The valuations of real estate assets related to the hotel business have been based by applying asset valuation parameters (i.e. value per room) obtained from public studies prepared by the companies active in the hotel industry in Europe.

It was not considered necessary to apply different valuation methods, such as Discounted Cash Flow and market multiples of comparable companies, as they are not appropriate to assess corporate groups as diversified as the Monrif group. For information purposes only, we note that, also at December 31st2011, the investment in Monrif S.p.A. was measured using the adjusted net equity method.

Noemalife S.p.A. In order to measure the investment in Noemalife S.p.A. it has been considered proper to use the Discounted Cash Flow method applied to 2012 - 2014 company results expected by analysts’ consensus. The valuation was conducted on the basis of the following parameters: (i) levered beta of 0.99, (ii) free risk rate of 5.93%, (iii) market risk premium of 5.00%, (iv) cost of equity of 10.87%, (v) cost of debt of 5.40%, (vi) WACC of 8.09% and (vii) the terminal value perpetuity of

1.00%. For information purposes, we only note that, even at December 31st 2011, the investment in Noemalife S.p.A. was measured using the Discounted Cash Flow method based on a WACC of 7.76%. It was not considered necessary to apply the market multiples method as a “control” valuation method for Noemalife S.p.A. as it is based on a static / punctual valuation approach and it would not appropriately measure the real value of the group, also in the light of the impact that the recent acquisition of 45% of the French group Medasys will have on the future results.

Valsoia S.p.A. In order to measure the investment in Valsoia S.p.A. it has been considered proper to use the Discounted Cash Flow valuation method applied to the 2012 – 2016 results expected by analysts’ consensus. The valuation was conducted on the basis of the following parameters: (i) levered beta of 1.15, (ii) free risk rate of 5.93%, (iii) market risk premium of 5.00%, (iv) cost of equity of 11.70%, (v) cost of debt of 5.00%, (vi) WACC of 8.47% and (vii) the terminal value perpetuity of 1.00%.

The measurement methods for available for sale financial assets relative to investments in listed and unlisted companies are detailed in the following table:

Other reserves Other reserves amount to 1,595.652 Euro and are composed by the reserve from equity-accounted investments revaluation for 1,440,690 Euro and by the reserve relative to the value of the option related to the convertible bond amounting at 154,962 Euro. In the first half of 2012 TIP has issued a bond partially convertible in ordinary shares with a value of 40,000,000.0 Euro. The conversion rate is equal to the 20% of the face value. In the same period it has been issued a first tranche of 5,000,000.0 Euro. The accounting value of the convertible portion (1,000,000 Euro, equal to the 20% of the total amount of the bond) – according to IAS 32 – has been separated, at the moment of the initial recognition, in the different “components” of the bond (as a “composed” financial instrument). The “liability” component is equal to the present value of the cash flows (capital + interests) related to the bond, discounted on the basis of a “market interest rate”, equal to the average yield of a panel of similar selected bonds without conversion rights, issued by Italian companies and due in 2019 (year of the term of the bond). At the issuance date, the “liability component” is equal to 4,485,038.4 Euro.

The “liability” component amounts to 4,848,660.5 euros at June 30th, 2012.The “net equity component” is equal to the difference between the “present value” of the cash flows at the issuance date and the liquidity from the subscription of the convertible portion of the bond. The value of the “equity component” is equal to 154,961.6 Euro and will not change until the term of the bond. IFRS reserve for bargain purchases This reserve is negative and amounts to 483,655 Euro, unchanged from December 31st, 2011.

backed by guarantees. (32) Financial instruments Financial risk management Considering the nature of its business, the company is exposed to various types of financial risks and, in particular, to market price risk in terms of changes in the fair value of its investments and, marginally, to interest rate risk. The financial risk management policies adopted by the company are detailed below: Interest rate risk The company is exposed to interest rate risks as regards its current financial assets consisting of bonds held for trading. Investment price variation risk Considering the nature of its business, the company is exposed to market price risk in terms of changes in the fair value of its investments. As regards investments in listed companies, there is no instrument for an efficient hedging of a portfolio with characteristics such as that held by the company (small-mid caps with certain characteristics). With regard to the unlisted companies, the risks associated with:

a) valuation of such investments, given (i) the absence in such companies of control systems similar to those required for companies with listed securities, with the consequent lack of an information flow at least equal to that available for the latter in terms of quantity and quality and (ii) the difficulty of performing independent checks in such companies and, therefore, of assessing the thoroughness and accuracy of the information they provide;

b) the possibility of influencing the management of such investees and aiding their growth, which is the prerequisite for investment, based on the company’s relations with the management team and shareholders, and therefore subject to the verification and development of such relations;

c) the monetization of such investments, which are not traded in a regulated market,

Have not been hedged via specific derivatives since such instruments do not exist. The company seeks to minimize the risk – albeit in a merchant banking activity, which is therefore risky by definition – via careful analysis of the company and its sector of reference at the time of entry into its capital, plus attentive monitoring of the development of investee companies’ business also after entry into their capital. Credit risk The company’s exposure to credit risk depends on the specific characteristics of each customer as well as on the type of activity performed.

Page 44: Half yearly Financial Statements as of June 30, 2012...Directors’ Report at 30 June 2012 In the six month period ending on 30 June 2012, Tamburi Investment Partners S.p.A. (“TIP”)

TAMBURI INVESTMENT PARTNERS S.P.A.

Page 44

Before accepting an engagement, thorough analyses are performed of the customer’s credit worthiness drawing on the wealth of knowledge and contacts enjoyed by the company. In the case of advisory activity concerning restructuring transactions, the credit risk is higher. Liquidity risk The company’s approach to liquidity management is to ensure that, as far as possible, there are always sufficient funds to honor its obligations on due date. Historically, because of the nature of its business, the company has never resorted to debt. In 2012, in line with 2011, the company used a 15 million Eurocredit line opened with the Banco di Desio and a 8 million Euros credit line with Banca Euromobiliare S.p.A. for temporary cash requirements. Both the credit lines are unsecured. Therefore on April 19th, 2012, the company has deliberated a bond issue convertible of 40 million Euros, partially convertible at the fixed yearly rate of 4,25%; in the first semester 2012, it has been called a first tranche of nominal 5 million Euros of this issue. Capital management The policies for capital management by the Board of Directors envisage maintenance of a high level of equity in order to maintain a trust-based relationship with investors, thus permitting business growth. The company repurchases its own shares on the market with timing that depends on market prices. (33) Investments in group companies held by members of the board of directors,

direction - the company has long adopted the Organizational Model, Code of Ethics, and operating procedures for areas of risk. As part of the ongoing activity of monitoring and updating of the Model, and in the light of expansion of the list of crimes that cause legal entities to become liable under the decree, the need emerged to update the Organizational Model. During its meeting on March 26th, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the new version of the Organizational Model pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree no. 231/2001 designed to prevent the following types of crimes (Application Criteria 8.C.2):

1. Crimes against the Public Administration 2. Corporate crimes 3. Market abuse crimes 4. Crimes of manslaughter and serious or extremely serious bodily harm 5. Crimes of receiving, laundering and use of money, goods or utilities of unlawful

provenance 6. Computer crimes 7. Occupational safety.

In addition, on May 15th 2009, the company drew up the Risk Assessment document pursuant to Article 17.1.a of Italian Legislative Decree no. 81/2008. It was further updated on February 15th 2011 and November 10th 2011.

Code for the protection of personal data As regards the Privacy Code, pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree no. 9 of June 30th 2003, the company has prepared the relevant policy document for 2011.

Observance of corporate governance rules For its corporate governance, TIP uses as its model of reference the rules of the Italian Corporate Governance Code promoted by Borsa Italiana S.p.A.. The report on corporate governance and ownership structure referred to 2011 is approved by the Board of Directors and published annually on the TIP’s website www.tipspa.it in the “Corporate Governance” section. On June 29th 2005, during their Ordinary Meeting, the shareholders’ assembly approved the adoption, pursuant to Article 13 of the Corporate Government Code, of a shareholder meeting regulation indicating the procedures to be followed for orderly and functional proceedings of TIP’s Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings and assuring each shareholder’s right to take the floor and speak on agenda items. This regulation came into force and took effect as from the start date of trading of TIP shares on the Expandi segment. In compliance with the aforementioned shareholders’ resolution, as well as with the new requirements of Article 114 of the Italian Consolidated Finance Act (ICFA), and pursuant to the Issuer Regulation, the Board of Directors adopted a code of conduct (the so-called “Internal Dealing Code”), effective as from the start date of trading of TIP shares. The purpose of the code is to regulate, in a compulsorily effective manner, company representatives’ notification obligations vis-à-vis TIP, the CONSOB, and the market.

These procedures are binding for the directors and statutory auditors of TIP, as well as for its employees and, in general, for persons possessing, by virtue of the functions they perform, Price-Sensitive Information. These procedures have been set up to (i) prevent abusive use of Price-Sensitive Information and market manipulation also pursuant to and by virtue of Article 187-quinquies.5 of the ICFA and of Articles 6, 7, 8, and 12 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 231/2001, (ii) regulate the management and handling of Price-Sensitive Information, and (iii) establish the approach to be observed for communication, both inside and outside the corporate sphere, of documents and information concerning TIP, with special reference to Price-Sensitive Information.

The Board of Directors appointed the Vice Chairman and Managing Director Alessandra Gritti as the Disclosure Officer, for the purposes of implementation of Price-Sensitive Information procedures, and the executive director Mr. Claudio Berretti as her substitute.
