BANCA POPOLARE COMMERCIO E INDUSTRIA and SAI ordinary shares will no longer be traded on After Hours Market (TAH);
BANCA ANTONVENETA and CASSA DI RISPARMIO DI FIRENZE will be traded on After Hours Market (TAH).

Consistent with the criteria for the calculation of the indices, the weighting with which each individual stock will enter the basket will be determined on the morning of September 23, 2002. This will be done using the opening price of each share as base price and the relative values for the number of shares in circulation shown in the Official List on September 18, 2002 (adjusted as necessary to take account of operations involving companies' share capital). These information will be made available on September 19, 2002.

Borsa Italiana S.p.A. will disseminate all further information regarding the revision via the usual information channels.

¹ On Ferretti shares a tender offer is currently in progress (refer to the Italian Exchange Announcement nr.7370 of August 5, 2002). After the tender offer's results Ferretti shares will be excluded from the "reserve stocks" list if it will appear reasonably certain that the fundamental requirements for the inclusion in the MIDEX index (listing at the Stock Exchange, adequate liquidity, adequate capitalisation) will cease to exist
