Ongoing Disputes
Vereniging van Effectenbezitters/ Stichting Van der Goen WOL Claims dispute
In July 2001, the Dutch association Vereniging van Effectenbezitters and the Stichting VEB-Actie WOL
foundation, which represent a group of around 10,000 former minority shareholders of World Online
International N.V, filed a suit against World Online International NV hereinafter referred to as WoL, (currently
99.5% owned by Tiscali) and the financial institutions tasked with the stock market listing of the Dutch
subsidiary, disputing, in particular, the incomplete and incorrect nature, as per Dutch law, of certain
information contained in the listing prospectus for WoL and of certain public statements made, immediately
prior to and after the listing, by the company and by its chairman.
(1) Group companies
(2) Mr. F. Bizzarri, member of Tiscali Spa’s Board of Directors, has made an IPTV consultancy contract with the Parent Company and with the
subsidiary completed in June 2008. The entire cost has been transferred over to the subsidiary Tiscali Italia Spa, since the services are in its
field, and thus the related income has been adjusted.
(3) Stock option – CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER and employees. Cost recorded in the item Other provisions in the Parent Company’s financial
statements.
