C.L.N. GROUP - ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS YEAR ENDING 31 DECEMBER 2011 Disclaimer This Annual Report 2011 has been translated into English solely for the convenience of the international reader. In the event of conflict or inconsistency between the terms used in the Italian version of the report and the English version, the Italian version shall prevail. C.L.N. S.P.A. Board of Directors & Auditors Board of Directors CHAIRPERSON Aurora Magnetto MANAGING DIRECTOR Aurora Magnetto Vincenzo Perris Gabriele Perris Magnetto BOARD MANAGERS Vijay Goyal François Max Eduard Rumpf Alain Legrix François Daniel Golay Jean Luc Maurange Raffaella Perris Magnetto Jean Martin Van der Hoeven Mario Zibetti Board of Auditors PRESIDENT Mario Pia STATUTORY AUDITORS Vittorino Pizzoni Giovanni Sala SUBSTITUTE AUDITORS Alessandra Odorisio Riccardo Ronchi Auditing Company Deloitte & touche S.P.A. Report on Operations Dear Shareholders, Profits reported by the Group for the year ending 31 December 2011 amounted to € 13.5 million after deductions relative to taxes (€ 22 million) and depreciation (€ 87 million). In assessing the Group’s performance during the year reviewed consideration should be given to the on-going global economic situation and in particular the markets where the Group operates. Steel Market Following a continuous and significant increase of apparent steel consumption in the EU 27 Country area from 2003 to 2007, progressive global reductions, with the exception of Asia, were registered as of the last quarter of 2008 and reached an all-time low of 115 million tons in 2009. The EU trend reversed in 2010/2011, following overall improvements in the international framework, which resulted in an initial recovery of 19% in 2010 and reached 146 million tons in 2011. Though this figure is a healthy 27% increase over 2009, it is still a good 38 million tons (-21%) below 2007 and is particularly uneven throughout EU countries with Italy and southern Europe way below the volumes registered in northern and eastern Europe. After the marked decrease in world steel production registered in 2009, leaving only Asia unscathed, an initial recovery of approximately 15% at world level and 25% in the 27 EU Countries was witnessed in 2011. The uptrend continued into 2010 to approximately 1.5 billion tons globally, equalling an increase of 27% over 2009 for the EU and 44% for Italy (+ approx. 9 million tons), much of which was destined for export. The outstanding level of production in Asia, particularly in China, saw the BRICS share of world production exceed 60%, with China alone accounting for 46% of global production and 64% of production within Asia. Intense changes in consumption, particularly in mature markets and primarily in southern EU countries was most certainly due to a decrease in real consumption in many steel intensive sectors such as the construction and automotive industries – only partially balanced by the improved apparent market demand, especially after the significant de-stocking process that characterized all of 2009. Recovery has in fact been significant throughout 2011, though stronger in apparent rather than real consumption – a trend that also characterized the distribution market which benefitted from an increase of 8% over 2009 figures albe it -3.7% fall over 2010 and the more significant difference of approx. -25% compared to figures for 2007/2008. 5 Demand increased during the first and second quarters but decreased in the fourth quarter of 2011 and was even lower than the same period in both 2009 and 2010. Though distribution companies benefitted from the positive market trend in the first part of the year, despite distinct differences between sectors and products, this was partially sacrificed as markets declined during the last quarter. Structural uncertainty increased in 2011, with shorter steel making cycles and greater variations in prices conditioned by trends in major raw material supplies, particularly iron ore, coking coal and scrap, supported by high demand from countries in Asia – an area where the international product price is established in $/ton and then converted to Euro for the EU market – yet another unforeseeable variant within our system. Though the overall annual result is positive, excess structural competition, already present in the distribution sector of the Italian service centres and amplified by decreased consumption after 2008 led to measures aimed at improving operational profitability in certain areas. As far as the SSC division is concerned, an upturn in sales volumes together with improved unitary profit margins and greater efficiency in managing operational expenditure has allowed the Group to achieve satisfactory economic results in 2011. Automotive Market As for the Passenger Cars market, new car registrations in EU27 countries decreased by 1.7% between 2010 and 2011 to 13.1 million vehicles (following a decrease of 5.5% between 2009 and 2010), mainly due to continued difficulties and uncertainty in Western Europe. Major decreases were registered in Spain (-17.7%), Italy (-10.9%), the UK (-4.4%) and France (-2.1%), while a significant increase of 8.8% was registered by Germany. Main carmaker customers of the CLN Group in Europe which recorded decreased registrations in 2011 include the Fiat Group (-12.1%), PSA (-9%) and Renault (-8.4%) while BMW reported an increase of 7.6%. Light Commercial Vehicle registrations in Europe (EU 27 + EFTA), once again showed an opposing trend and rose by 7.5% over the PSC share: sales increased in France (+2.7%), Germany (+18.8%), and the UK (+16.7%) whereas a decrease was registered in Italy (-6.1%) and Spain (-10.1%). All main CLN Group European LCV market Customers reported increases in registrations, in particular Renault (+4.7%), the FIAT Group (+5.2%) and PSA (+2,6%). With reference to new car registrations in the main non-European markets where the Group operated in 2011: Turkey continued growing by +16.5% in 2011 (though less than in 2010); . 6 . Russia experienced a sharp increase of +39% in 2011, after a 2 year period of stagnation; . In Brazil PSC registrations were essentially stable in 2011 compared to 2010 while LCV registrations increased by +13.8%; . In South Africa, overall growth continued by +17.5% for PSC and +12% for LCV. Both the Wheels and Automotive Divisions handled the difficulties experienced by the PSC market in Western Europe through customer and geographical diversification, increased product and process ranges and thanks to the presence in market segments (A and B) less affected by the market slump; the improved LCV market in addition generated positive economic results. The development and diversification strategies initiated in recent years together with the structural re-organization that has been implemented since 2009, particularly in Italy and France, have enabled the Group to achieve more than satisfactory results despite reference market difficulties. 7 (Japan) 2,50% MW ITALIA SPA (Italy) 100% 97,50% GIANETTI RUOTE SPA (Italy) 97,50% 100% TOPY INDUSTTRO IEPSY INDUSTRIES (Japan) (Japan) MW FRANCE S.A. 2,50% MW ITALIA SPAMW ITALIA(France) SPA (Italy) 2,50% 10 MA SP (Italy) (Italy) MW ROMANIA GROUP ACTIVITIES AND OPERATIONS 98,58% GIANETTI 100% 100% S.A.

March Controlled Companies MAD and Delfo Polska deliberated purchase of two transfer presses for an overall investment of approximately € 20 million. April MA and the Proma Group agreed to the formation in co-ownership of the company PMC SpA, into which were transferred the respective shares held in PMC Automotive D.o.o.; In September PMC SpA proceeded to take over the pressing operations of Frigostamp SpA, located in Bruino, Turin – Italy. During 2011, PMC Automotive D.o.o. completed investments regarding pressing operations and is currently finalizing investments regarding component assembly for the Fiat 500/L, manufactured in Kragujevac; in December, Simest SpA bought equity in the Serbian company to support its investments. MW Italia and Turkish truck wheel manufacturer Jantsa AS signed a Joint Venture Agreement for the establishment in Turkey of a New Company called JMW AS, equally owned by the two partners. The new company will begin production and sales of wheels for cars in the last quarter of 2012, with a production capacity of approximately 2 million, and aims to increase production to include approximately 1 million wheels for trucks per year in the near future. MW Italia and the Dorbyl Group reached an agreement whereby MW acquired the remaining shares (50%) of the South African Company Dorbyl-MW and consequently abandoned the Joint Venture agreement that tied the two companies. With effect from May, the results of the Company, called MWSA, will be integrally consolidated in the CLN Group Statement of Accounts. May In May Canessa sold its 30% share in Commerciale Siderurgica del Sud. 12 July MA South Africa completed acquisition of the remaining 20% of IG Tooling shares and as a result the CLN Group is now the sole shareholder. November The South African Controlled Company MA Tool and Die received a Nomination Letter from Daimler for the supply of printed components for external aluminium panels and structural steel parts for the New Mercedes Class C BR 205 Project to be manufactured at the East London production site. GM appointed MA Tool and Die to be the supplier of printed components for the New Pick Up RT 50 Project to be manufactured at the Port Elizabeth site. ABSA Bank and Simest expressed interest in financing both ventures, together with completion of investments for the BMW F30-New Series 3 Project. The Controlled Company MA Argentina and the Fumiscor Group signed a Joint Venture directed at creating a New, equally co-owned, Company for the supply of pressed parts at the FGA Cordoba plant. December MW Italia signed a sales contract for all shares held in Sanremo Radaelli Srl; as a consequence the Company’s ownership status was no longer accounted at the end of the year (although full accounts have been included in the financial statement). On 22 December 2011, PSA Peugeot Citroen, as part of the development of the Excellence de la Relation Fournisseurs plan, appointed the CLN Group Fournisseur Majeur. The criteria specified in attributing the prestigious award includes technical and industrial completeness and the capability of managing complex projects over time at constant levels of excellence. This award confirms the solidity if the relationship and long term commitment we have with PSA. 13 ECONOMIC, CAPITAL AND FINANCIAL TRENDS CLN Group Reclassified Income Statement Sales Revenue (Euro/’000) 2011 2010 2009 2008 1,892,373 1,700,886 1,412,532 2,026,384 8.5 10.5 3.3 8.9 73,240 89,068 -43,273 84,006 3.9 5.2 -3.1 4.1 Financial income/(expenses) -32,892 -21,206 -29,693 -42,353 Result of equity investments -769 -6,393 -19,333 -5,402 EBITDA % sales revenue EBIT % sales revenue Foreign exchange gains/(losses) Extraordinary income/(expenses) 160,330 7,112 178,344 -1,868 46,226 -3,476 -11,153 -7,778 -18,540 41,061 -95,339 22,944 % sales revenue 2.1 2.4 -6.7 1.1 Income tax expense -21,794 -24,124 -4,688 -11,744 -56.0 -59.0 4.9 -51.2 17,119 16,937 -100,027 11,200 0.9 1.0 -7.1 0.6 EBT % average tax rate EAT % sales revenue CLN Group 38,913 436 180,725 -2,154 To summarize, 2011 closed with revenues totalling € 1,892.4 million, a significant increase of 11.2% over 2010 with EBITDA equalling € 160.3 million, 10% less than the year before. An increase in sales was general in all Group Divisions; the following affected this increase significantly: (i)Consolidation scope differed between 2010 and 2011. The metal pressing company in South Africa was consolidated for 12 months in 2011 against 7 months in 2010 inducing an impact of € 34 million and the South African controlled wheel producing company entered the consolidation perimeter in May, inducing an impact of € 16 million; the Japanese and Malaysian Companies acquired by the Wheel Division in September 2010 were also consolidated for 12 months in 2011 against 3 months in 2010 inducing an impact of € 6 million; Lastly the Russian controlled wheel producer Company brought sales of a further € 7 million 14 (ii)Average raw material prices were higher than the year before and thus caused higher sales prices with the same profit margin. EBITDA worsening for 2011 was affected on the one hand by non recurring income giving advantage to 2010 (in particular in South Africa and South America) and on the other by worsening of PSC volumes in Europe, particularly during the last quarter of the year, as well as the phase-out of certain PSA models in South America. These negative factors were only partly counterbalanced by increased sales volumes in South Africa. Furthermore, the SSC Division had to account for the devaluation of its steel stock at the end of 2011, to realign to new market prices, with a negative impact amounting to approximately € 5 million (devaluation not present in 2010). In terms of results based on geographic distribution, a marked lack of balance can be noted between production units located abroad and those located in Italy, which have falling and unsatisfactory results compared to 2010 (a number of units are still operating at a deficit). Monitoring of past investment recoverability, in particular before the 2008/2009 crisis, continued in 2011, as in the previous two years. In view of this it was considered prudent to allow for a devaluation of € 8 million as an extraordinary expense relative to the Group’s operations in Russia. Also Company reorganization and restructuring operations initiated in 2009, (accounted for € 17.9 million in extraordinary expenses in 2009 and € 6 million in 2010) have continued in 2011 with related costs of approximately € 5 million. Management of minority holdings closed in 2011 with significant benefits (€ 6 million registered as extraordinary income) from the sale of IPM shares.

As previously noted, the Division was obliged to implement a devaluation of stock of € 5 million to realign with market values. 15 Our business worldwide We put a lot of effort into developing our activities on a global scale, while fully respecting our customers, suppliers and all the people we work with.

Sales volumes did not increase and maintained the levels achieved in 2010. Greater sales revenues did not generate benefits in terms of EBITDA, which were in fact below those registered in 2010, essentially due to the worsening performance of the companies located in Italy.

Decreased EBITDA originates from the worsening of performance in South America, Poland and Italy, connected on the one hand to the slump in the PSC market (particularly in the last quarter of 2011) and on the other to model/production portfolio changes implemented by a number of Customers. 18 Re-classified Balance Sheet (Euro/’000) Trade receivables, Net (Trade payables, Net) Ending inventory Other current assets /(liabilities) 31.12.2011 31.12.2010 31.12.2009 31.12.2008 -294,641 -339,884 -298,390 -362,653 -39,622 -73,773 -60,986 -71,297 239,665 291,351 287,773 298,698 254,210 287,125 269,493 460,910 NET WORKING CAPITAL 196,753 172,814 181,959 296,453 Property, plant and equipment, Net 624,450 659,423 620,293 646,300 Intangible assets, Net Investments and financial receivables 15,311 19,285 35,591 49,759 65,250 67,879 68,128 59,134 Provisions -65,173 -60,012 -68,156 -48,835 NET CAPITAL INVESTED 830,768 856.,788 835,516 989,690 EQUITY 398,569 409,462 375,942 364,961 (Cash and cash equivalents) -63,582 -74,183 -59,523 -49,979 Deferred tax assets / (liabilities) (Investment securities) (Marketable securities) (Net financial receivables, net financial accruals and deferrals) Short-term financial payables Long-term financial payables NET FINANCIAL DEBTS /(CREDITS) NET CAPITAL INVESTED -5,823 -2,601 -2,299 -13,121 -19,442 -19,448 -19,184 -26,206 3,497 -2,140 -4,001 1,417 365,933 375,950 329,137 398,347 -3,965 149,758 432,199 830,768 -5,004 172,151 447,326 856,788 -5,046 218,191 459,574 835,516 -1,828 302,978 624,729 989,690 With reference to the Balance sheet for the CLN Group, 2011 recorded increased working capital of approximately € 24 million due to reduced Customer advance payments for the completion of tooling manufacturing and the reduction of tax debts. Net working capital is stated net of receivables sold without recourse (€ 161 million on 31 December 2011 and € 118 million on 31 December 2010). The decrease of net invested capital (- € 26 million) is essentially due to depreciation 19 greater than new capital expenditure and variations in exchange rates especially with regard to the Rand and the Zloty. Total net equity decreased by € 11 million mainly due to markedly reduced conversion reserve (- € 23 million) and dividends to shareholders (€ 5.2 million) that more than absorbed yearly results; the entry of Simest as a minority shareholder in South African metal forming operations generated an increase to third party ownership equivalent to approximately € 4 million As in the past three years, net debits continue to decrease: cash flow from operational management ensured full coverage of annual investments. In July, 2007 the parent company CLN Spa took out a bank pool loan headed by the Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA bank totalling € 135 million. The amount remaining on 31 December 2011 equalled € 47.2 million. This loan is subject to economic and financial covenants, based on: 1.Net Debt/Equity 2. Net Debt/EBITDA 3. EBITDA/Net Financial charges These financial indicators were all found to be in compliance on 31 December 2011. Main Economic and Financial Indicators. The main economic indicator for the CLN Group is EBITDA, the main financial indicator being Net Debit, as represented in the Reclassified Balance sheet table. Further economic and financial indicators of interest are given below: ROE - Return on Equity (Net Result/Shareholders’ Equity) A measure used as a general indication of a company’s profitability: in other words, how much profit it is able to generate given the resources provided by its shareholders. ROE F/Y 2011 4.3% ROI - Return on Investment (EBIT/ Net Invested Capital) F/Y 2010 4.1% A measure of a company’s core business profitability, excluding as such financial and extraordinary items, to net capital employed. 20 ROI F/Y 2011 8.8% F/Y 2010 10.4% ROS - Return On Sales (EBIT/Sales Revenue) A measure of the efficiency of sales to produce revenue. ROS F/Y 2011 3.9% F/Y 2010 5.2% Equity/Capital Employed This expresses the ratio of Equity to Capital Employed. Equity/Capital Employed F/Y 2011 48% F/Y 2010 48% Current ratio A measure of the degree to which Current Assets (trade and financial plus cash and cash equivalents) cover Current Liabilities (trade and financial). Current Assets/Current Liabilities F/Y 2011 0.89 F/Y 2010 0.88 In determining the Current Ratio, current assets also include, insofar as readily convertible into known amounts of cash, the “securities” classified under “financial fixed assets”. The Current Ratio at 31 December 2011 was less than 1 but in line with the previous year. As explained in greater detail in the following paragraph under the heading “Liquidity Risk”, the Group had undrawn “hot money” facilities of € 41 million. Furthermore, the Group reached an agreement with a Pool of banks (including Intesa Sanpaolo, Unicredit, BNP Parisbas e Monte dei Paschi di Siena) in 2012 regarding the stipulation of a syndicated loan (€ 225/250 million) to finance new development initiatives and replace the medium long-term funding reimbursed in 2011 and throughout previous years. Final deliberations are currently underway. 21 Equity/Fixed Assets Ratio A measure of the extent to which fixed assets are financed by Equity. Equity/Fixed Assets F/Y 2011 56.5% F/Y 2010 54.5% In determining the Equity/Fixed Assets ratio, securities have been excluded as they can be readily convertible into known amounts of cash. MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES FACING THE GROUP Financial Risks The CLN Group is exposed to numerous financial risks arising from normal operational activities which are constantly monitored in an effort to mitigate possible negative effects. These include: Credit risks, in relation to day-to-day commercial business with customers; Liquidity risks, related in particular to the availability of financial resources and access to the credit market; Currency risks, (mainly related to exchange and interest rates) as the Group operates internationally in various currency areas and is potentially exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates and relative interest rates. . . . Credit Risks The theoretical maximum exposure to credit risk as at 31 December 2011 is represented by the accountable value of receivables registered in the financial statement. The CLN Group adopts creditworthiness policies designed towards monitoring the solvency of its customers, and enters into factoring transactions (sales of trade receivables) without recourse, thereby transferring the relative risk. In order to eliminate or minimize the credit risk deriving from commercial operations the Group adopts the policy of making specific provisions against specific non performing credits. Based on past experience, to cover generic risks on credits, funds may be reserved as a precautionary measure to cover generic risk on credits. 22 Liquidity Risk The principal factors influencing the liquidity of the CLN Group include the resources generated by or absorbed in operations, and the resources deployed in servicing debt and those invested toward strategy and production development The levels of cash flow (actual and forecasted), credit lines and liquidity of the Group are constantly monitored through treasury reports. At the close of 2011 liquidity (including portfolio securities) amounted to € 87 million and the credit lines available for short-term financial advances amounted to € 41 million, whilst the lines available for advances on invoices factoring with recourse amounted to € 174 million. Currency Risks The CLN Group is subject to foreign currency risk due to exchange rate fluctuations affecting international transaction costs, revenues and funding including the conversion of financial statements of consolidated companies within the Group operating in currencies other than the Euro. These fluctuations can affect the Group’s net profit (loss) and equity In 2011, the principal rates of exchange to which the CLN Group was exposed were the following: EUR/Zloty EUR/Peso EUR/Real EUR/Leu EUR/Rand . . . . . Interest Rate Risks The CLN Group regularly performs factoring transactions with or without recourse (sales of trade receivables with or without recourse) and, moreover, reverts to other technical forms of funding, whether short-term (hot money, and advances on import/ export) or medium to long-term usually at variable rates of interest. Changes in market interest rates affect the level of net financial charges. 23 Business Risks The CLN Group is exposed to a number of risks relating to the marketplace in which it operates including: Risks associated with steel prices The steel prices are sharply affected by “global” market dynamics (carbon and iron costs, and steel demand from emerging markets, particularly Asia). In the Wheels and Automotive Divisions, price variations in raw materials are normally directly transferred to end-customers. The SSC Division is instead particularly influenced by local market situations; in particular, a sudden and significant rise in raw material (coils) prices may expose the SSC Division to the risk of not being able to recover such costs from end-customers. Over the last three years, the market in which the SSC Division operates has been (and will be) structurally characterized by a volatile price market with rapid and violent repeated oscillations throughout the year. These micro-cycles lead to increased speculation in purchase decision-taking (formation of demand), whether in terms of distribution or end-users, active primarily in the “general industry” segment, and hence increase the risk associated with our business activities. Automotive Market Trend Risks Group performance is significantly affected by the automotive market and in particular those in Europe, South America and South Africa. These markets are highly competitive in terms of product quality, innovation and, especially in recent years, price. Furthermore, due to the shrinking demand for new cars, major carmakers worldwide are struggling with production overcapacity. It is well known that the car industry suffers far more than other market segments from risk factors and market uncertainties such as GDP upturns or downturns, corporate and/or consumer confidence and consumer credit interest rates, all of which constantly affect the demand for durable goods. The Automotive market is also notoriously cyclic, though it is always difficult to predict extent and duration. The global recession in 2008 and the first part of 2009 hit the automotive market hard and this weighed heavily on the Group’s results for the same period. The current economic weakness felt by countries in the Eurozone, and in particular Italy, is generating uncertainties regarding the possible evolution of business activities in general, not only in the car industry. In Europe, though many governments, the EU, monetary authorities and private corporations have endeavoured to provide financial support to EU member states in 24 difficulty and to offset default by a number of European countries, reserves persist regarding the burden of debt carried by certain Eurozone countries and their capacity to honour future financial commitments, the overall stability of the Euro as a single European currency (or in more extreme circumstances, the possible dissolution of the Euro) considering the diverse economic and political backgrounds of the Eurozone member states. Furthermore, global uncertainties regarding European finances has resulted in worsening interest rates on loans to businesses and general shrinking of available credit. Developments in this direction could have a negative impact on the Group’s activities and operations. The CLN Group endeavours to take measures, where possible, to offset these risks by broadening its customer base and heightening geographical diversification. Business initiatives set forth by carmakers are closely followed and the range of products and processes within the Group are in constant evolution. Past initiatives to this regard have been undertaken by the Group in South Africa, India, Russia and more recently in Serbia, Turkey and China. Risks associated with sales in international markets A significant portion of the Group’s production activities are conducted and located outside of Italy and the Group expects that revenues from sales outside Italy will account for a continually increasing portion of its total revenues in the foreseeable future. All of this exposes the Group to risks inherent to operating globally, including those related to exposure to local economic and political conditions, import and/or export restrictions, and multiple tax regimes. Risks associated with market footprint in emerging economies The Group operates across a broad spectrum of emerging economies, whether directly (Brazil, Argentina and South Africa) or through Joint Venture agreements or other cooperation agreements (Turkey, India, Russia, Serbia and as of 2012 China). The Group’s exposure to the economic trends in these countries has heightened in recent years. Unfavourable economic or political developments in any one of these areas (which may vary from country to country) could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s activities and future prospects, as well as its earnings and financial position. Many of our main OEM customers have established globalization policies in the past and intend to continue in the future aimed at reaching emerging markets. In some cases our Group has seconded our customers’ initiatives. Our customers’ capacity to 25 reach their objectives and their level of success is a prime factor influencing the profitability of our subsequent initiatives. Risks associated with Joint Venture Agreements The Group currently pursues a policy designed toward seeking out alliance and Joint Venture opportunities aimed at achieving objectives including vertical integration, customer loyalty and business expansion, capital deployment optimization and risk mitigation, particularly in when entering emerging economies. Joint Venture agreements are often effected through majority, par-venture and even minority acquisitions. Multiple factors affect the outcome of Joint Venture agreements such as relationships with respective partners; a shared vision of future strategies to be pursued, technical and/or financial difficulties and possible problems with local laws and regulations. Competition Risks The automotive components supply market, regarding both wheels and metal formed components, is highly competitive. The CLN Group is obliged to compete with numerous other suppliers of wheels and components. Some of these hold a more dominant position in certain areas than ours while others are having to undergo drastic restructuring and reorganization. New suppliers are also appearing from emerging markets that could well further increase levels of competition. Risks regarding OEM Outsourcing Policies The automotive components supply market, regarding both wheels and moulded components, is strongly affected by OEM outsourcing policies. Multiple factors influence OEM decisions including: internal production capacity, perception of strategic relevance of certain components, financial resources, production costs, quality, delivery times and know-how. These choices/strategies adopted by OEMs determine the size of current/potential markets for all those operating in the automotive components sector. 26 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW In conducting business, the CLN Group is committed to protecting the environment and ensuring compliance with applicable eco-friendly regulations and legislation. At all points in the manufacturing chain, from the way materials are treated to how waste is disposed of together with the amount of energy needed, the CLN Group endeavours to ensure that environmental impact remains at a minimum. With regard to REACH (the Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals across the European Union territory), introduced in application of and pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, CLN continued to monitor – throughout 2011 - regulatory evolution through the REACH coordination team created in 2008. Particular attention was given to the Candidate List (a list issued by the ECHA regarding prohibited substances) to ensure that the substances listed were not present in neither products produced nor purchased by the Group. With regard to industrial safety and industrial health, the year under review was characterized by perpetuation of works inherent to the Industrial Safety Project launched in 2009 with the introduction of new activities aimed at improving safety levels throughout all Divisions. The above project represents the first step toward creating an Industrial Health & Safety Management System designed to: provide a safe and healthy working environment for all staff and ensure the risk prevention in accordance with applicable laws and regulations; identify and encourage the adoption of appropriate protection and prevention measures to minimize accident and injury frequency rates; make available to company management an efficient and effective management system to ensure that any and all problems that might arise are identified, monitored and managed on an on-going basis and that information can be accessed as and when wanted to ensure that operating and decision-taking responsibilities are adequately supported; increase staff awareness, involvement and motivation; boost performance and efficiency; contribute to a safer and healthier working place; improve the Group’s image both internally and externally aimed at creating greater credibility with regard to customers, suppliers and controlling authorities/organizations. progressively reduce industrial health and safety costs. . . . . . . . . 27 28 Health, safety and the environment are absolute priorities for all the companies in the Group with regard to the workplace, machines and systems used at the plants and methods of transportation. All employees are well-informed, motivated and involved in the commonly shared goal of “zero accidents”. The CLN Group believes that the environment, what we know as nature, is an indispensable heritage wherever we are. Thus we have created green zones with shrubs and flowers at all of our plants, and these are cared for directly by the employees themselves. 29 Health and Safety measures planned for 2012 are based on the types of accidents that occurred in 2011, highlighting how behavioural aspects can make the difference and be of the utmost importance with regard to Health and Safety at all the production sites. It is more than apparent that accident prevention must necessarily pass through greater staff involvement at all levels and through a methodical, structural and shared observance of general conduct RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Group research and development, which is fully expensed in the annual income statement, were focused as follows: the application of innovative solutions linked to the use of materials; the creation of product solutions geared toward increasing safety and reliability; increased efficiency of key production processes; responding proactively to customers by anticipating their needs and acting quickly and efficiently to any requests they make. . . . . RELATIONSHIPS WITH CORRELATED COMPANIES Transactions between Group companies are conducted at fair value based on market conditions. Transactions between CLN S.p.A. and its Subsidiaries and Associates are primarily commercial in nature. The following summary table sets forth the commercial and financial transactions entered into with and between the Group companies (all amounts in thousands of Euros): 30 JBM – MA Ltd ITLA SRL LIMA ALMASIDER GERVASI POLSKA Prorena Ortolano IM Italia EMARC OMV Metaltranciati DELNA AVISCALI PROMA POLAND GRUPPO PMC GRUPPO CELLINO CIR TOTAL JBM – MA Ltd ITLA SRL LIMA ALMASIDER GERVASI POLSKA Prorena Ortolano IM Italia EMARC OMV Metaltranciati DELNA GRUPPO PMC PROMA POLAND GRUPPO CELLINO CIR ALTRE TOTAL Commercial Receivables 8,656 2,369 33 1,055 8 2,975 42 851 19 11 3 166 718 4,145 2 21,053 Commercial Payables 1 33 2 503 5 198 217 1,607 2,566 Financial Receivables 750 2,000 2,006 4,756 Financial Payables - Operating revenues 504 9,757 28 336 306 13,679 146 1,774 444 86 76 680 229 10,499 503 9 39,056 Operating expenses (13) (19) 27 525 5 948 187 6,256 548 8,464 Financial revenues 62 62 Financial expenses - 31 32 As a Global Brain. Working in a partnership means going a long way to be closer to our customers; welcoming their challenges and opportunities and doing our best to offer our own solutions; working in a relational network that values all those involved, a network aimed at building common development opportunities, and giving continuity to collaboration and dialogue, to make our future that much better. 33 With regard to related party transactions outstanding and, more pointedly, transactions with investees in which the CLN Group holds 50% or less of the respective voting powers, attention is drawn to the following: aside from specific cases where control over an investee is exercised jointly with the other party sharing control (at 31 December 2011, joint control exercised over: DMW, MA-JBM, Almasider, Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. and Itla S.r.l.), the CLN Group has no power to govern the financial and operating policies of the investees. In consequence, aside from the jointly controlled investees referred to above, the CLN Group has no power to control the strategic, financial and operating decisions of an investee, particularly in terms of relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and lending institutions. SIGNIFICANT POST-BALANCE SHEET EVENTS Events of significance occurring after the 2011 consolidated balance sheets were drawn and closed are as follows: February 2012 - MW Italia and Shanghai Baosteel International Economic and Trading Co., Ltd (“Baosteel”) signed a Joint Venture agreement and set up a new company called “Chongqing Baosteel – MW Wheels Co. Ltd”. MW holds a 25% share of the new company, located in the Province of Chongqing in China. Production capacity is expected to total 3.5 million PSC/LCV wheels per year. Canessa S.p.A. agreed to transfer the production activities of the company in Fontanellato in favour of Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. On the strength of this contribution the CLN Group acquired control of Prorena Ortolano S.r.l., which will be included in the 2012 Consolidated Financial Statements. March 2012 – MW Italia and the WPT Group reached an agreement whereby MW agreed to purchase the remaining 30.5% MWPT BV shares. All the relative expenses have already been included in the 2011 Financial Statements Gianetti Ruote S.p.A., bought a 20% share in Fluid & Mechanical Engineering s.r.l. 12 April 2012 - MA and the Shougang Group Corporation signed an agreement to form an equally held Joint Venture company producing stamped, assembled and roll-formed products in the Beijing area (China). . . . . . 34 outlook The first two months of 2012 have essentially confirmed the trend registered in the last quarter of 2011. The target markets began the year with uncertainty and with a drop in the levels of demand compared to the analogous period of the prior financial year. Steel Market According to forecasts made by relevant trade associations such as Eurofer (for manufacturers) and Eurometal (for distribution), the apparent consumption in the EU-27 for 2012 is expected to decrease (- 2%) compared to 2011, marking a great difference (-22%) compared to 2007, despite the significant differences amongst the Union’s members and with Germany, once again, having the best performance opportunity, thanks to its export possibilities, especially in the Far East, in the automotive and in the engineering industry. The trends for GDPs within Europe are estimated as being close to zero, with countries like Italy in recession (-1.2%) and its consequent consumption appraisals seen as being on the decline (-23% compared to 2007), with a particularly critical trend estimate for the first part of 2012. Volatile coil prices have risen in the first few months of 2012 running little short of +100/T (approximately 20%), compared with minimum prices at the end of 2011. Unfortunately the Italian market’s present situation doesn’t yet show signs of a solid and stable demand and, all the more so, in the presence of external factors which are out of our control, the situation could become critical and severely impact our domestic markets in terms of consumption and prices. Prudence is therefore compulsory in forecasting the business evolution for 2012, a year which, for the SSC Division, is still characterised by a demand that is out of line with the current offer and where attention to overall operating costs is of prime importance in reducing the firm’s break-even point, given that volumes and business margins will be under pressure, due to the structural excess of competition present in the Italian distribution market. Automotive Market With regards to the Passenger Cars market (“PSC”), registered number plates fell by 8.2% within the EU27 in the first two months of 2012 compared to the analogous period for the previous year and confirming, therefore, a weakness in demand, as already apparent from the last months of 2011, even if there are significant differences within 35 each country; Germany, UK and Spain, for example, haven’t been affected by the drop, whilst France (-20%) and Italy (-17%) have fully confirmed the difficulties that became apparent throughout 2011. The performance of the main clients for the CLN Group in Europe show a drop in the number of registered number plates for the first two months of 2012 compared with the analogous period of the previous year with Fiat Group (-16%), PSA (-15.8%), Renault (-24.6%)and BMW (-3.4%). Even the Light Commercial Vehicles sector (“LCV”) in Europe retreated over the first two months of 2012 (-9.2%), once more with marked diversity amongst the community members: Italy -31,5%, Spain -22,8%, France -3,4%, UK -20,3% whilst Germany doesn’t appear to show any signs of significant variations compared with the previous financial year. Client performances, within the CLN Group operating within the LCV market in Europe, show good results compared to Q1 2010 for Renault (+9.8%), Fiat Group (+7.5%) and PSA (+10%). In view of the above, it is understandable how the financial year for 2012 will present uncertainties in the evolution of the demand in Europe with significant and marked differences between the different countries/carmakers /model/groups. Within such a context, Automotive Division will continue to pursue its own strategies directed at client and geographical diversification, product positioning for market segmentation and modelling, the consolidation of efficiencies carried out in 2009-2011 and the awaited results from reorganisation activities. Further drive should come from the initiatives taken in new markets in which the Automotive Division was not previously present (South Africa in particular) and from which an important contribution in consolidation and growth is expected in the medium-term, whilst groundwork is laid for other future international initiatives (of prominence is the Joint Venture agreement recently signed with Shougang in China). Within this setting the Wheels Division expects to have substantial confirmations of the 2011 positive performances reached in Romania and Poland, whilst a contraction is expected in France; distress will linger in the Italian units, still in the process of reorganisation and with volumes of business that are insufficient to achieve financial equilibrium. The previously outlined path to internationalisation is in fact set to continue, in particular in Turkey through the Joint Venture Agreement signed with Jantsa and in China with the Joint Venture Agreement signed with Baosteel. 36 Board of Directors The Chairperson Aurora Magnetto 38 Ourplants 39 balance at 31 DECEMBER 2011 Consolidated Capital ASSETS DUE FROM SHAREHOLDERS FOR CAPITAL NOT PAID IN FIXED ASSETS I Intangible assets Incorporation and subsequent expenses R&D costs and advertising expenses Industrial patent and intellectual property rights Concessions, licenses, trademarks and similar rights Goodwill Intangibles in progress and payments on account Other Consolidation difference Total Intangible assets II Tangible fixed assets (Property, Plant and Equipment) Land and buildings Plant and machinery Production and commercial equipment Other tangible fixed assets Tangibles under constr. and payments on account Total Tangible fixed assets (PPE) III Financial fixed assets Investments: Subsidiaries Associates Parent companies Other enterprises Total Investments Receivables: amounts due from subsidiaries amounts due from associates amounts due from parent companies amounts due from other Total Receivables Investment securities Treasury stock Total Financial fixed assets Total Fixed assets CURRENT ASSETS I Inventories Raw materials, ancillary materials and consumables Work-in-progress and semi-finished goods Contract work-in-progress Finished goods and goods for resale Advances Total Inventories 42 (Accounts in €/000) 31.12.2011 31.12.2010 0 0 0 541 412 859 204 678 3,816 8,801 15,311 225,368 340,723 13,901 5,068 39,390 624,450 0 2.624 690 1.074 271 519 4,329 9,778 19,285 236,821 353,327 17,280 6,187 45,808 659,423 749 57,590 0 6,911 65,250 632 54,733 0 12,514 67,879 0 750 0 370 1,120 19,442 0 85,812 725,573 154,804 29,814 43,870 60,818 2,045 291,351 0 3,000 0 1,268 4,268 19,448 0 91,595 770,303 158,550 28,969 52,955 53,214 5,010 298,698 ASSETS (cont’d) (Accounts in €/000) 31.12.2011 31.12.2010 Receivables Trade receivables amounts due within next accounting period 239,273 amounts due after next accounting period 392 Due from subsidiaries amounts due within next accounting period 2,000 amounts due after next accounting period 0 Due from associates amounts due within next accounting period 22,166 amounts due after next accounting period 0 Due from parent companies amounts due within next accounting period 0 amounts due after next accounting period 0 Receivable/Recoverable from taxation authorities amounts due within next accounting period 28,996 amounts due after next accounting period 888 Deferred tax assets amounts due within next accounting period 17,971 amounts due after next accounting period 25,642 Due from other enterprises amounts due within next accounting period 893 amounts due after next accounting period 0 Other receivables amounts due within next accounting period 47,589 amounts due after next accounting period 161 Total Receivables 385,971 III Financial assets not representing fixed assets Investments 0 Marketable securities 3,965 Treasury stock 0 Total Financial assets not representing fixed assets 3,965 IV Cash at bank and on hand Bank and post-office deposits 62,639 Cash and valuables on hand 943 Total Cash at bank and on hand 63,582 Total Current assets 744,869 PREPAID EXPENSES AND ACCRUED INCOME Prepaid expenses and accrued income 2,477 Total Prepaid expenses and accrued income 2,477 TOTAL ASSETS 1,472,919 II 287,423 350 1,318 0 26,055 221 0 0 19,703 1,775 13,804 21,709 877 0 45,100 35 418,370 0 5,004 0 5,004 74,074 109 74,183 796,255 4,870 4,870 1,571,428 43 EQUITY AND LIABILITIES Equity I Share capital II Share premium reserve III Revaluation reserves IV Legal reserve V Reserve for treasury stock VI Statutory reserves VII Other reserves: -

CORE BUSINESS CLN S.p.A. is a joint stock company duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Italy. CLN S.p.A. and its Subsidiaries (“the Group”) operate in 16 countries with 3 diverse business lines: Service Centers (steel coil slitting and steel sheet cut to lenght in general), Presswork and Steel Wheel Production. Related party transactions form part of the Group’s normal day-to-day business. These are mainly of a commercial nature and are regulated as per market conditions. 2. FORM AND CONTENT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements for 2011 have been prepared as required by Section III of Italian legislative decree 127/1991, the subsequent variations and interpretations introduced by the Italian legislative decree no. 6 of January 17, 2003 (the Corporate Governance Reform Act), as subsequent amendments integrated in the accounting principles of the Italian Accounting Profession (Consiglio Nazionale dei Dottori Commercialisti e dei Ragionieri), the Italian Accounting Board (Organismo Italiano di Contabilità) and the International Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (I.A.S.B.). These have been applied exercising prudence and on a going concern basis while also taking into account the economic function of the asset or liability component in consideration. The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated income statement and these accompanying Notes. The more significant post-balance sheet events, illustrated in the Report on Operations section, form an integral part of these notes. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using the global integration method and include the Consolidated Financial Statements of CLN S.p.A (parent company) together with Italian and overseas companies where the parent company holds, either directly or indirectly, majority voting rights. The Consolidated Perimeter is attached to the these Supplementary Notes. Companies included in the Group, along with their registered business name and address, declared strategic intent, share capital and percentage of direct or indirect ownership are listed in an attachment to these Supplementary Notes. 51 The financial statements in the consolidation all refer to the same date of closure of the parent company. No situations occurred in the Consolidate Financial Statements requiring derogation under Article 2423.4 of the Italian Civil Code. Consolidation Principles The Financial Statements of Companies within the Consolidated Perimeter, drafted and approved by the respective board of directors and amended where necessary to conform with the accounting policies adopted by the parent company, have been included in the Group Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ending 31 December 2011. The income statements of foreign subsidiaries denominated in foreign currency have been converted into Euro at the respective average rate of exchange for the year whereas the related balance sheets have been converted into Euro at the exchange rate prevailing at the end of 2011. Exchange differences, resulting from the conversion of opening shareholders’ equity at current rates of exchange and at year-end rates of exchange, have been registered as consolidated equity reserves. The rates of exchange applied are reported in the Supplementary Notes under the heading “Other information”. As summarized below, all subsidiary undertakings included in the consolidation perimeter have been consolidated using the line by line method summarized as follows: a. assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of subsidiaries, regardless of shareholdings have been included in the consolidated financial statements, after eliminating the book value of the investments held by the parent company, or by other consolidated companies against the related shareholders’ equity. Minority interests in the net equity and the net result for the year of the consolidated subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated income statement. b.The difference between the purchase consideration paid and the net result for the year of the companies acquired during the year is taken to the consolidated financial statements. Where applicable, any differences are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the company being consolidated. Any residual difference is treated as follows: 52 . if positive, this is recognized on the asset side of the consolidated balance sheet under line account “consolidation difference”, and is amortized at a constant rate over the period of expected future risks and benefits;. if negative, this is recognized within consolidated net equity under line account “consolidation reserve”, or, should future losses be forecasted, under consolidation reserve for risks and future charges”. c. Elimination of receivables, payables and revenues arising between consolidated companies not involving unrelated parties. The following have also been eliminated: capital gains arising from or relating to fixed assets transferred among consolidated companies; intragroup profits, if significant, arising from transactions between consolidated companies relating to assets transferred that continue to remain as inventory with the acquirer; devaluation and recovery of investments held by consolidated companies including intragroup receivables and dividends. . . . . 3. ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES The evaluation criteria, as required by Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, adopted in preparing the 2011 Consolidated Financial Statement, and unchanged from 2010, are as follows: Intangible Assets Intangible assets are stated at purchase price or production cost. Cost includes accessory expenses, as well as the indirect and direct costs that can be reasonably attributed to the relevant asset. In no case the cost incurred, as defined above, exceeds the recoverable amount. Depreciation plans have various durations depending on the estimated economic usefulness of the related asset. Depreciated intangible assets are registered at their depreciated value, and, with the exception of goodwill, cannot be maintained in subsequent financial statements when the reasons for the adjustment ceases to exist. Where the devaluation is of an extraordinary nature, production reconversion, restructuring or production resizing the assets are registered as extraordinary liabilities. 53 Tangible Fixed Assets (Property, Plant and Equipment) Tangible fixed assets are stated at purchase price or production cost, adjusted in some cases as a result of the application of specific monetary revaluation laws or gains arising from the difference between the cost of new acquisitions and purchased net equity, less accumulated depreciation. Tangible fixed assets, the expected useful life of which is limited in time, are depreciated systematically each period on the basis of economic/technical rates determined according to the remaining possibilities of utilizing the related asset. The depreciation rates applied in the year under review are as follows: Industrial property Plant and Machinery Industrial and commercial equipment Other 3 to 10% 6.7 to 17.5% 5 to 25% 12 to 25% The assets are depreciated as from the period in which these enter into service. For assets acquired in the financial period, the annual depreciation is taken at half (50%) the regular rate, based on the assumption that the depreciation charge thus taken does not differ significantly from the depreciation charge determined as from the moment in which the asset is made available and ready for use. In the case of a permanent impairment in value, regardless of the depreciation already provided, the asset is written down accordingly; if, in subsequent periods, the reasons for the write-down cease to apply, the original value of the asset is reinstated. Should the write-downs result from permanent impairment losses arising as a result of transactions exceptional in nature, or production reconversion, restructuring or production downsizing, these are classified as extraordinary expenses. Ordinary maintenance costs are charged wholly against the consolidated income statement. Maintenance costs of a betterment nature are attributed to the fixed asset to which they relate, and are depreciated in relation to the remaining possibilities of utilizing that asset. Not encompassed within the value of tangible fixed assets are financial charges incurred in the purchase or construction thereof. Shown separately are payments on account and tangibles under construction, as yet not entered into service at the consolidated balance sheet date. Leasing arrangements are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements under the finance method whereby the capital value of assets, including the portion of 54 lease rentals on inception encompassed within “prepaid expenses” in the statutory accounts, is taken to “tangible fixed assets”, whilst lease rentals payable by way of principal are taken to “non-current financial payables”. The lease rentals accounted for in the statutory accounts are replaced by depreciation determined in relation to the useful life expectancy of the assets held under lease, classifying the related interest expense under “financial charges” and the related deferred taxation provisioned. Notwithstanding general accounting principles generally accepted in Italy and where: Permitted (i)by specific monetary revaluation laws, or (ii)deemed to portray more fairly and truly the values of land and buildings, The Group has recorded revaluations (in accordance with the thresholds permitted by law), with the corresponding income statement item being equity reserves. No reassessed amounts are in excess of recoverable amounts. Financial Fixed Assets Not included in the consolidation are idle subsidiaries (in start-up) insofar as their impact on aggregate assets, liabilities, net financial position and the result reported by the Group is insignificant. Investments in associates are measured and accounted for under the equity method; the positive (negative) difference between the value determined under the equity method and the carrying amount stated in the previous year’s accounts, for the portion arising from profits (losses) is taken to a specific income statement line. Also taken into account when accounting for associates under the equity method are the investments held by the latter in subsidiary or associate undertakings. Investments in other enterprises are instead carried at cost, and possibly reduced to reflect any permanent impairment in value. Receivables are stated at their presumed realizable value. Securities are stated at cost, and possibly devalued to reflect any permanent impairment in value. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of purchase or production cost, determined in accordance with the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation, and presumed realizable value based on market conditions. The valuation of inventory at current cost would not have been significantly different from the FIFO valuation. 55 Manufacturing costs include the cost of raw materials, direct costs and the portion of indirect costs that can be attributed to the cost of production. Obsolete and slow-moving inventories are devaluated on the basis of their possible utilization or saleability Receivables Receivables classified under Current Assets are stated at their nominal value. More pointedly, trade receivables are devalued to their presumed realizable value, as required under Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, by provisioning adequate funds to an appropriate reserve. The Group enters into factoring and/or securitization transactions involving the sale and securitization of its trade receivables. The Group also securitizes and sells certain trade receivables “with recourse”, whereby the receivables sold remain on the asset side of the consolidated balance sheet, as matched on the other side of the consolidated balance sheet by a financial liability for an equal amount. In this case, no receivables are derecognized. Accruals and Prepayments Accruals and prepayments include the portion of revenues and expenses covering two or more periods, in accordance with the matching or accrual basis of accounting. Under this basis, the effects of transactions and other events are recognized when they occur (and not as cash or its equivalent is received or paid) and they are recorded in the accounting records and reported in the financial statements of the periods to which they relate. The matching of costs with revenues is a process in which expenses are recognized in the income statement on the basis of a direct association between the costs incurred and the earning of specific items of income. This process involves the simultaneous or combined recognition of revenues and expenses that result directly and jointly from the same transaction or other events. The adopted evaluation criteria reflect the application of the general principle of assigning revenues and expenses to the accounting period of reference. Dividends Payable to Shareholders Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognized as a liability in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are declared at the relevant Shareholders’ Meeting. 56 Reserves for Risks and Charges Reserves for risks and charges are provided to cover certain or probable losses or liabilities for which the exact value and effective date are not determinable at the yearend. The reserves represent the best estimate possible based on the information currently available. Reserve for taxation, and deferred taxation is also included under this title. Reserve for Employee Severance Indemnities As accrued by the Italian companies of the Group, the reserve for employee severance indemnities is provided to cover the full liability due to employees in conformity with current legislation, national labour contracts and payroll agreements prevailing in Italy. Law No. 296 enacted on 27 December 2006 (Italian Financial Act 2007) introduced pension reform regulations (establishment of agreed-upon supplementary pension fund) in respect of Severance Indemnity (TFR) allocations maturing after January 1, 2007 The effects of the reform include the following: TFR allocations maturing up to 31 December 2006 remain as a book reserve deposited with the company; TFR allocations maturing as of 1 January 2007 are, as designated by the employee, transferred or directed to: a)Agreed upon second-pillar pension funds; or b)Left with the company, which transfers the TFR allocations to the National Social Insurance Institute (INPS). At the consolidated balance sheet level, “Reserve for employee severance indemnities” represents the residual balance on the reserve existent on 31 December 2011; classified under “Amounts due to provident and social security institutions” is the liability accrued on 31 December 2011 in respect of TFR allocations as yet to be transferred to the pension funds or provident institutes. . . Payables Payables are stated at their nominal value. 57 Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies The effective contingencies, commitments and guarantees outstanding at the consolidated balance sheet date are reported in the memorandum accounts. Revenue Recognition Revenue is accounted for in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting, less returns, trade discounts, rebates and premiums. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the moment that title passes to a customer, which generally coincides with shipping or consignment. Revenue from the provision of services is recognized at the moment that the services are rendered. Cost and Expense Recognition Costs and expenses are recognized in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting. Interest Income, Interest Expense, Other Income and Expenses Interest income and interest expense, and, not least, other income and expenses, are recognized and included in the accounts, along with the related accruals and deferrals, in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting. Taxes a. Income taxes are applied according to the tax laws and regulations prevailing in the countries in which the Group companies operate. b. As of 2004, the Group’s Italian companies have elected to adhere to the National Tax Consolidation program pursuant to Article 117/129 of the Italian Tax Code (T.U.I.R). c. The company CLN S.p.A. acts as a consolidating entity and determines a single taxable base for the group of companies adhering to the tax consolidation program, thereby benefitting from the possibility to – set off – taxable income with tax losses with a single income tax return. d. Each company adhering to the tax consolidation program deposits its entire taxable income with the tax consolidating entity, recording an account payable, for an amount equating the “IRES” corporation tax payable, the companies contributing tax losses register an account receivable vis-à-vis with the consolidating entity, for 58 an amount equating the “IRES” corporation tax effectively offset by the Group. e. Furthermore, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are determined for the more significant consolidation transactions and all temporary differences between the consolidated assets and the consolidated liabilities and the corresponding amounts for the purposes of taxation shown in the statutory accounts of the consolidated companies. f. In particular, deferred tax assets, classified under “deferred tax assets”, are recognized only if their future recovery is certain. Deferred tax liabilities, classified under “reserve for taxation, including deferred taxation”, are not recognized if there is small possibility that a future liability will rise. Furthermore, in agreement with benchmark accounting standards, a deferred tax asset is recognized for the carry forward of the unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that the future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses can be utilized. Dividends from Associates Dividends distributed by participated Companies not included in the consolidation are accounted for in the year they were deliberated on.

Regarding associate undertakings: As far as MWSA is concerned, the purchase of controlling shares was performed during the year; therefore the company has been consolidated using the line by line method in the consolidated 2011 financial statements. The remaining write downs/revaluations of equity investments derive solely from the losses/profits reported and included on a pro-rated basis in the consolidated accounts. . . Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. and Itla S.r.l., though holding a 51% interest, have not been fully included in the consolidation due to the existing partnership governance rules stipulating equal joint control. Both companies have therefore been evaluated using the equity method as per normal practice in all cases of joint control. Highlights of the equity and revenue figures for the year ending 31 December 2011 for both companies are shown in the following table (all amounts are in €/000): Equity Total Assets Sales revenue Net result Prorena Ortolano Srl 20,356 Itla Srl 9,797 59,695 35,721 3,563 2,743 79,343 51,652 Financial receivables On 31 December 2011, financial receivables relate primarily to receivables due from Itla S.r.l. (€ 0.75 million) regarding financing arrangements signed in January 2010 set to mature in December 2012. Other Items Other items primarily include Italian Government Securities (€ 19 million) held by the parent company, CLN S.p.A. The securities referred to above are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at cost, and are considered to be long-term investments. 66 4.2 CURRENT ASSETS Inventories Raw materials, ancillary materials and consumables Work in process and semi-finished goods 31.12.2011 Contract work-in-progress Finished goods and goods for resale Advances Total 31.12.2010 154,804 158,550 29,814 28,969 60,818 53,214 43,870 2,045 291,351 52,955 5,010 298,698 Inventories shown are net of the provision for the write down of stock amounting to € 21,131.00 (€ 16,304.00 on 31 December 2010). The fund covers the lower value of raw materials no longer used in current production as well as finished goods, and obsolete or slow-moving ancillary materials in stock while also aligning the value of overall stock to that of the market when this latter is lower. The following table illustrates the changes to the depreciation fund for stock between 2010 and 2011. End of year figures are to be deemed congruent. Stock devaluation provision at 31 December 2010 16,304 Uses/Other variation -1,858 Accruals Stock devaluation provision at 31December 2011 6,685 21,131 On 31 December 2011, stock devaluation provision was set at € 15.5 million to cover raw materials, € 1.3 million to cover semi-finished goods, and € 4.3 million to cover finished goods. The increase of provision refers mainly to the SSC Division’s steel stock (equal to approximately € 5 million) and is aimed at realigning the reserve with current market prices. Contract work in progress is primarily related to equipment and die costs sustained by the Automotive Division with regard to preparation for the production of new models. When production begins all new equipment and dies are billed to customers, while the costs, held in suspense in inventory during production, are released to the income statement. The relative margin is spread over five years (presumed average produc- 67 tion term) in order to allocate to each period the effective net profit on this activity. Financially, the impact is largely covered by advance payments collected from the relative customers, and classified in the accounts under advances.
