About the Company
The Company is a public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands on June 16, 2021. The Company’s statutory seat (statutaire zetel) is in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its principal office and business address is Via Puglia n. 35, Turin, Italy. As a result of the Demerger, the Company will become the holding company of a leading global group engaged in the design, production, marketing, sale, servicing, and financing of trucks, commercial vehicles, buses and specialty vehicles for firefighting, defense and other uses, as well as combustion engines, alternative propulsion systems, transmissions and axles for those vehicles and engines and alternative propulsion systems for agricultural and construction equipment and for marine and power generation applications.

About the Demerger and Admission

  • At the date of this announcement, CNH Industrial owns and controls the “Commercial and Specialty Vehicles” business and the “Powertrain” business as well as the related “Financial Services” business (together the “Iveco Group Business”).
  • It is the intention to separate the Iveco Group Business from CNH Industrial by way of a statutory demerger (juridische afsplitsing) to the Company on December 31, 2021. The Demerger is expected to become effective on January 1, 2022.
  • As part of the Demerger and by operation of law, each holder of common shares in the share capital of CNH Industrial (the “CNH Common Shares”) will receive one Common Share for every five CNH Common Shares which it holds (the “Allotment Ratio”) on December 31, 2021 (the “Demerger Record Date”) (such holder of CNH Common Shares on the Demerger Record Date being a “CNH Shareholder”). The number of CNH Common Shares (and CNH Special Voting Shares (as defined below) when applicable) held by the CNH Shareholders will not change as a result of the Demerger and the related allotment of Common Shares (and Special Voting Shares (as defined below) when applicable).
  • Each CNH Shareholder that, in addition to holding CNH Common Shares, is registered in the loyalty register of CNH Industrial (the “CNH Loyalty Register”) will be registered in the loyalty register of the Company (the “Loyalty Register”) for the corresponding number of Common Shares pursuant to the Allotment Ratio. If such CNH shareholder also holds special voting shares in the share capital of CNH Industrial (the “CNH Special Voting Shares”), it will, by operation of law, receive a number of special voting shares in the share capital of the Company (the “Special Voting Shares” and together with the Common Shares the “Shares”) that is equal to the number of Common Shares for which it will be registered in the Loyalty Register. If such CNH Shareholder is registered in the CNH Loyalty Register electing to receive CNH Special Voting Shares upon completion of the required holding period, it will also be registered in the Loyalty Register electing to receive Special Voting Shares upon completion of the required holding period, whereby the holding period to receive Special Voting Shares shall be shortened by the period of time by which such holder of Common Shares had already been registered in the CNH Loyalty Register.
  • As a result of the Demerger and Admission, CNH Shareholders at the Demerger Record Date will therefore become a shareholder of two independent public companies: CNH Industrial and Iveco Group.

A description of these risks, which include risks relating to the Company as well as risks relating to the Demerger and the Common Shares (and Special Voting Shares) is included in the Prospectus.
