THIS DOCUMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION
Not for distribution to any person located or resident in the Republic of Italy. The Offers are not being made to, and any offers will not be accepted from, or on behalf of, Holders in any
jurisdiction in which the making of the Offers would not be in compliance with the laws or regulations of such jurisdiction. See "Offer Restrictions" herein.
This Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum contains and incorporates by reference important information which should be read carefully before any decision is made to participate in the
Offers. If you are in any doubt as to the action you should take, you are recommended to seek your own financial advice, including in respect of any tax consequences, immediately from your
stockbroker, bank manager, accountant or other independent financial adviser.
Any individual or company whose Existing Notes are held on its behalf by a broker, dealer, bank, custodian, trust company or other nominee must contact such entity if they wish to participate in
the Offers. None of BNP Paribas (the Arranger), Lucid Issuer Services Limited (the Principal Exchange and Tender Agent) or BGL BNP Paribas (the Luxembourg Exchange and Tender Agent) (or
their respective directors, employees or affiliates) makes any recommendation as to whether or not Holders should offer the Existing Notes for exchange or sale.
Unless otherwise defined herein or the context otherwise requires, capitalised expressions used in this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum shall have the meanings set out under
"Definitions" herein.

The Issuer hereby invites the Holders (subject as set out under "Offer Restrictions") to offer to exchange any or all
of their outstanding Existing Notes for the New Notes (the Exchange Offer) or to offer to sell any or all of their
outstanding Existing Notes for a cash payment (the Tender Offer and together with the Exchange Offer, the
Offers) on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum.
Under the terms of the Offers, Holders are invited to offer to (i) exchange their Existing Notes at the Exchange
Price for such Series of Existing Notes and/or (ii) sell their Existing Notes for the relevant Tender Price.
THE OFFERS WILL BEGIN AT 8.00 A.M., LONDON TIME, ON 18 NOVEMBER 2009 AND EXPIRE
AT 4.00 P.M., LONDON TIME, ON 17 DECEMBER 2009, UNLESS EXTENDED AS PROVIDED IN

TO SELL MAY BE WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME UP TO 4.00 P.M., LONDON TIME, ON
17 DECEMBER 2009, AFTER WHICH TIME ALL OFFERS TO EXCHANGE OR SELL SHALL BE
IRREVOCABLE.
The Electronic Instruction or Definitive Notes Instruction received by the Exchange and Tender Agents cannot be
revoked except in the limited circumstances described in "Terms of the Offers Withdrawal Rights" below.
The denomination of the New Notes is US$2,000. However, the New Notes are being offered for exchange in
minimum amounts of US$80,000 (the Minimum New Note Amount). Holders of Existing Notes must deliver a
principal amount of Existing Notes (the Minimum Delivery Amount) sufficient to allow them to receive the
relevant Minimum New Note Amount, or their Existing Notes will not be accepted for exchange. There is no
minimum amount for Existing Notes presented in the Tender Offer.
The Issuer may, in its sole discretion, extend, re-open, amend or waive any condition of the Offers at any
time (subject to applicable law and as provided in this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum). Details
of any such extension, amendment or waiver (if permitted) will be announced wherever applicable as
provided in this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum as soon as reasonably practicable after the
relevant decision is made.
The New Notes will be issued in dematerialised bearer form (au porteur). Title to the New Notes will be evidenced
in accordance with Article L.211-3 of the French Code monétaire et financier by book entries (inscription en
compte) in the books of Euroclear France, which shall credit, upon issue, the accounts of Account Holders.
Account Holder shall mean any authorised financial intermediary institution entitled to hold accounts, directly on
behalf of its customers with Euroclear France, or indirectly, via the depositary banks for Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
(Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (Clearstream, Luxembourg).
Questions and requests for assistance in connection with (i) the Offers may be directed to the Arranger and (ii) the
delivery of the Definitive Notes Instruction and the Electronic Instruction may be directed to the Exchange and
Tender Agents, the contact details of which are on the last page of this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum.
Before making any decisions in respect of the Offers, Holders should carefully consider all of the
information in this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum and, in particular, the Risk Factors set out
under "Risk Factors" below.
The Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the CSSF) is the competent authority in Luxembourg for
the purpose of Directive n°2003/71/EC (the Prospectus Directive) and the Luxembourg law on prospectuses for
securities of 10 July 2005, for the purpose of approving this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum as a
prospectus as defined by and in accordance with the Prospectus Directive (a Prospectus). This document
constitutes a Prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive. Application has been made for the New
Notes to be listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the Luxembourg Stock Exchange) and
to be traded on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, which is an EU regulated market within
the meaning of Directive 2004/39/EC (a Regulated Market). Application has been made to the CSSF to
approve this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum solely for the purpose of admitting the New Notes
to trading on the Regulated Market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.
The New Notes are expected to be assigned upon issue a rating of [A negative outlook] by Standard & Poor's
Ratings Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., [Aa3] (under review for possible downgrade) by
Moody's Investor Service, Inc. and [AA- negative outlook] by Fitch Ratings. Furthermore, Moody's Investor
Services, Inc. has announced a potential change to its rating methodology for this type of instruments. Should such
change be implemented as proposed, the ratings of the New Notes could potentially be negatively affected by a
multi-notch downgrade. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject
to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the relevant rating organisation.
The Offers and the distribution of this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum in Belgium, France, Italy and the
United Kingdom is restricted by the laws of those jurisdictions. In the United States, the Offers and the distribution
of this Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum may only be made in compliance with the securities laws of any
state of the United States of America and in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the United States Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the Securities Act). No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction in relation to the Exchange
2

Offer that would permit a public offering of securities, other than in Luxembourg. The Offers are not being
made in the Republic of Italy. The Offers and the Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum have not been
submitted to the clearance procedures of the Commissione Nazionale per le Società e le Borsa (CONSOB)
pursuant to Italian laws and regulations.

proposal of the Issuer to exchange the principal amount of Existing Notes of that Series outstanding after the

Price. Such exchange is one of the matters which such a meeting of Holders has power to sanction under the
relevant provisions applicable to the Series 1 Existing Notes and the Series 2 Existing Notes. The relevant
exchange will occur on the Settlement Date at the same time as the settlement of the Offers described in this
Exchange and Tender Offer Memorandum. The text of the resolutions to be voted upon at the Holders'
meetings is set out in Part C of "Terms and Conditions of the New Notes and Forms" for information
purposes only. Any Holders of Series 1 Existing Notes and Series 2 Existing Notes will only continue to be
