Since there have been rumors in the Press containing contradictory or untrue
 information about the intentions of the owners of Juventus with regard to the renewal of
 the Board of Directors, as a shareholder, IFIL feels obliged to make an announcement to
 clarify its position, by expressing its wish to continue the work it has successfully
 undertaken so far and thus confirming its confidence in the current management.
 During the next few months, the subject of renewing the mandate of the Board may be
 discussed in detail, and will then be finalized and made public in view of the expiry of
 the current Board of Juventus. The Board’s mandate will end with the Shareholders’
 Meeting in October which will be called to approve the financial statements for the year
 ending June 30, 2006.
