Vivendi Intends to Appeal the Milan Court’s Decision About the Sale of TIM’s Fixed Network

Regulatory News:
Vivendi (Paris:VIV) takes note of the Milan court’s decision to
reject its complaint against the decision of TIM’s Board of
Directors concerning the sale of its fixed network. In a decision
issued today, the court considered this request inadmissible due to
a lack of standing (notably because Vivendi would not have declared
its voting intention in the event of a Shareholders' meeting being
convened), and did not address the merits of the case.
As a reminder, on December 15, 2023, Vivendi complaint against
TIM before the Milan court, seeking the annulment of the resolution
adopted by TIM’s Board of Directors November 5, 2023, approving the
sale of its fixed network without submitting it to the
Shareholders' meeting (nor to the related party transaction
procedure), and requesting the declaration that the transaction
agreement entered into on November 6, 2023, is unenforceable.
Despite the dismissal of its request on purely formal grounds by
the Milan court, Vivendi continues to believe that the sale of
TIM’s network should have been subject to a vote at a Shareholders
Meeting as it is an essential asset of the company which would
change the corporate purpose of TIM.
For this reason, Vivendi intends to appeal this decision.
