G.C. PARTECIPAZIONI organizes and manages its entire sector supply chain, through its international sales network, through the fulfillment of the highest quality standards, checked daily by operators at international auctions both in Germany and the Netherlands, and the constant work of its researchers, agronomists and engineers. A RAINBOW SPANNING HALF A CENTURY OF HISTORY G.C. PARTECIPAZIONI started up more than half a century ago, thanks to its founders, Paolo and Nina, who had a dream, to spread a rainbow over a country emerging from the drabness of the War. In 1960 Paolo and Nina built a small wooden greenhouse in their vegetable patch in front of the cemetery in Molfetta (Puglia, Italy), in which they planted the very first roses, chrysanthemums and carnations. This work bore its fruit very soon, picturing a rainbow before their eyes. This sight recurred again and again over three generations. 3

MADE IN ITALY AND GLOBAL VISION Today G.C. PARTECIPAZIONI is a family company with a managerial and market-oriented approach, proud of its history and its being Italian, geared to growth with a clear global vision. LISTING ON MILAN STOCK EXCHANGE G.C. PARTECIPAZIONI is a company that makes quality products and transparency to capital markets its two main strengths. The company is controlled by a leading international group listed on the Milan Stock Exchange that operates in the field of renewable energy and agriculture. PIONEERS IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY APPLIED TO AGRICULTURE Energy saving is surely one of the nodal points that modern agriculture will face in the coming years and in which our company is strongly engaged. Within this context, in 2004, an agreement was signed with Edison to use the waste thermal energy of their power plants to heat our greenhouses. This is how the largest greenhouses in Europe, the production plant in Candela (FG) was built. This agreement allowed Italy to become the pioneer country in the application of an experimental model for CO₂ emission reduction before both the entry into force of the Kyoto Protocol and the subsequent 20/20/20 Plan launched by the EU. This agreement enabled G.C. PARTECIPAZIONI to become an Energy Farm giving rise to best practices exportable all over the world. 4
