Exhibit 99.13
Amendment Agreement dated 28 April 2016
(the “Amendment Agreement”)
between
|
Credit Suisse International
|
and
|
Rock Investment SAS
|
|
(“Party A” or “CSI”)
|
(“Party B” or the “Counterparty”)
|
The purpose of this amendment agreement (this Amendment) is to amend the terms of the Call Option Transaction in respect of shares in Telecom Italia confirmed by a Confirmation entered into between us with a Trade Date of 14 July 2015 as previously amended by the parties on 6 August 2015 and on 18 August 2015 (the Confirmation). The Confirmation is subject to and forms part of a 2002 ISDA Master Agreement as if the parties had executed such agreement on the date the Confirmation was originally executed with the elections specified in the Confirmation (as amended from time to time) (the Agreement).
Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained in this Amendment, the parties agree as follows:
|
1.
|
Initial Payment
|
In consideration for Party A agreeing to the amendments set out in Clause 2 below, Party B will pay EUR 25,000,000 to Party A on the date of this Amendment (the Initial Premium Amount 2”).
|
2.
|
Amendments
|
Subject to the condition precedent that Party A has received the Initial Premium Amount 2 on the date of this Amendment, with effect from the date of the Initial Hedging Period Completion Date 2:
|
(a)
|
the definitions of Maturity Date and Strike Price in section 2.1 of the Confirmation shall be deleted and replaced by:
|
|
“Maturity Date:
|
In respect of the Previous Terms Transaction, 16 June 2016 and in respect of the New Terms Transaction, 1 September 2017.
|
|
|
Strike Price:
|
EUR 1.08.”
|
|
(b)
|
the following definitions shall be introduced in section 2.1 of the Confirmation:
|
|
“Amendment:
|
means the amendment agreement in respect of this Transaction dated the Amendment Date 2.
|
|
|
Amendment Date 2:
|
28 April 2016.
|
|
|
Previous Terms:
|
The terms and conditions of the Transaction immediately prior to the amendments made in accordance with the Amendment.
|
|
|
Upper Individual Tranche:
|
The Transaction is also made up of twenty-four (24) additional tranches (each, an Upper Individual Tranche). The Upper Individual Tranches form part of the terms of the Call Options in respect of which Party A is Seller but are not additional Options in favour of Party B. Instead, in lieu of the immediate payment of a higher premium for the revised terms herein, in respect of each Upper Individual Tranche, Party B may be obliged to pay up to three Additional Cash Settlement Amounts to Party A (depending on the VWAP of the Shares on certain specified dates set out in Schedules 2, 3 and 4 hereto). Each Upper Individual Tranche has the terms set forth in this Confirmation.
|
1
|
Upper Individual Tranche
|
||
|
Number of Shares:
|
27,500,000 Shares in respect of each Upper Individual Tranche.
|
|
|
Initial Hedging Period 2:
|
The parties acknowledge that Party A’s Hedge Positions on the Amendment Date 2 will reflect the Previous Terms and Party A will need to alter its Hedge Positions as a result, inter alia, of the changes to the Maturity Date and the Strike Price and the inclusion of the Upper Individual Tranches anticipated by the Amendment.
|
|
|
The Initial Hedging Period 2 is the period during which Party A will establish (in the market or otherwise) its Initial Hedge Positions 2 with respect to the Transaction (as amended by the Amendment) which will end on the earlier to occur of (i) the Exchange Business Day on which Party A establishes the Target Initial Hedge Positions 2 and (ii) the date falling two (2) Exchange Business Days immediately following the Amendment Date 2 (the last Exchange Business Day in the Initial Hedging Period 2 is the Initial Hedging Period Completion Date 2).
|
||
|
Initial Hedging Procedures 2:
|
During the Initial Hedging Period 2, Party A will establish the Initial Hedge Positions 2 subject to the Initial Hedge Conditions 2.
|
|
|
For the avoidance of doubt, these “Initial Hedging Procedures 2” apply to the Initial Hedge Positions 2 established during the Initial Hedging Period 2 only, and shall not apply to any other hedging activities undertaken by Party A (and/or any of Party A’s Affiliates) in connection with the Transaction.
|
||
|
Initial Hedge Positions 2:
|
The additional Hedge Positions established by Party A with respect to the Transaction (as amended by the Amendment) during the Initial Hedging Period 2.
|
|
|
Target Initial Hedge Positions 2:
|
The number of Initial Hedge Positions 2, as determined by Party A, such that Party A has Hedge Positions in respect of the Aggregate Number of Shares (taking into account the amendments made by the Amendment).
|
|
|
Party A will on the Amendment Date 2 give indicative figures in respect of the size of its expected Target Initial Hedge Positions 2. Such figures are indicative only and Party A’s Target Initial Hedge Positions 2 will be determined in Party A’s sole discretion depending on, amongst other factors, market values from time to time during the Initial Hedging Period 2.
|
||
|
Initial Hedge Conditions 2:
|
Party A shall not establish any Initial Hedge Positions 2 which would result in the Initial Price 2 (taking into account any other Initial Hedge Positions 2 already established at such time) being less than EUR 0.80 or greater than EUR 1.00. If this Initial Hedge Condition 2 results in the Initial Hedge Positions 2 being less than the Target Initial Hedge Positions 2, Party A and Party B will discuss in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner whether to amend Schedule 5 and waive this Initial Hedge Condition 2.
|
|
|
In addition, prior to commencing the process of establishing its Initial Hedge Positions 2, Party A will consult with Party B as to whether Party B elects to impose any additional Initial Hedge Conditions 2. Party B may (but need not) set limits (which do not conflict with the mandatory Initial Hedge Condition 2 specified above) such that:
|
2
|
(i) on any Exchange Business Day, Party A may not execute Initial Hedge Positions 2 at a price per Share exceeding the price notified by Party B to Party A; and
|
||
|
(ii) to establish the Initial Hedge Positions 2, Party A may not buy on a given Exchange Business Day more than a specified percentage of the daily trading volume of the Shares (such specified percentage as notified by Party B to Party A).
|
||
|
Party B may waive any such additional Initial Hedge Conditions 2 or change the relevant price or percentage in (i) and (ii) above once the Initial Hedging Period 2 has commenced by notifying Party A in accordance with the process agreed by Party A and Party B during the consultation prior to the start of the Initial Hedging Period 2 with respect to the establishment of further Initial Hedge Positions 2 after such notice is given.
|
||
|
Transaction Split:
|
Following the Initial Hedging Period Completion Date 2, Party A will determine the proportion of the Aggregate Number of Shares in respect of which Party A has not established Initial Hedge Positions 2 (the Previous Terms Proportion). A proportion equal to 1 minus the Previous Terms Proportion is known as the New Terms Proportion.
|
|
|
The Transaction shall then be automatically divided into two Transactions, one of which will revert to the Previous Terms except as specified in this clause (the Previous Terms Transaction) and one of which will continue on the new terms set out in the Amendment (including the extension of the Maturity Date, the inclusion of the Upper Individual Tranches and in this clause) (the New Terms Transaction). For the avoidance of doubt both Transactions will continue to be subject to and form part of the Agreement. In order to split the Transaction:
|
||
|
(i) the Aggregate Number of Shares in respect of (A) the Previous Terms Transaction shall be equal to the Previous Terms Proportion of the Aggregate Number of Shares immediately prior to the operation of this clause and (B) the New Terms Transaction shall be equal to the New Terms Proportion of the Aggregate Number of Shares immediately prior to the operation of this clause;
|
||
|
(ii) the Outstanding Premium Amount in respect of (A) the Previous Terms Transaction shall be equal to the Previous Terms Proportion of the Outstanding Premium Amount immediately prior to the operation of this clause and (B) the New Terms Transaction shall be equal to the New Terms Proportion of the Outstanding Premium Amount immediately prior to the operation of this clause; and
|
||
|
(iii) the Calculation Agent shall make such other adjustments to the terms of the Previous Terms Transaction and the New Terms Transaction as it deems necessary in order to preserve the commercial intention of the parties, in the aggregate.
|
3
|
Initial Price 2:
|
A price per Share determined by Party A promptly following the Scheduled Closing Time of the Exchange on the Initial Hedging Period Completion Date 2 which is equal to the volume weighted average price per Share (including any fees, stamp duty and taxes (including for the avoidance of doubt Italian Financial Transaction Tax) but for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any taxes on income) in the Settlement Currency at which Party A has established Initial Hedge Positions 2 in the market or otherwise, with respect to the Transaction (as amended by the Amendment). For the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Price 2 is only relevant to determining the Final Premium Amount 2 and the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 and will not affect any other term of the Transaction.
|
|
|
Initial Pricing Notice 2:
|
Promptly following the Initial Hedging Period Completion Date 2, Party A shall promptly deliver written notice to Party B of the Initial Hedge Positions 2 which were established, the Initial Price 2, the Strike Price, the Upper Price per Share 1, the details of the Transaction Split, the Upper Price per Share 2, the Upper Price per Share 3 and the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 (such notice, the Initial Pricing Notice 2).
|
|
|
Final Premium Amount 2:
|
After the Scheduled Closing Time of the Exchange on the last Exchange Business Day of the Initial Hedging Period 2, Party A will determine the Final Premium Amount 2 as being equal to the product of (i) the Initial Price 2 (ii) the New Terms Proportion of the Aggregate Number of Shares immediately prior to the operation of the Transaction Split clause and (iii) the Final Premium Amount 2 Percentage to be determined by Party A by linear interpolation from the sensitivity table described in Schedule 5 hereto, based on the Initial Price 2 and the percentages specified in the sensitivity table.
|
|
|
Premium Amount
|
||
|
Adjustment 2:
|
The Premium Amount Adjustment 2 is an amount equal to the Final Premium Amount 2 minus the Initial Premium Amount 2.
|
|
|
On the third Exchange Business Day following the last day of the Initial Hedging Period 2 or if such date is not a Business Day, the next Business Day:
|
||
|
(i) if the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 is a positive number, then Party B will pay the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 to Party A; and
|
||
|
(ii) if the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 is a negative number, then Party A will pay the absolute value of the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 to Party B.
|
|
For the avoidance of doubt each of the Initial Premium Amount 2, the Final Premium Amount 2 and the Premium Amount Adjustment 2 relate to the amendments made by the Amendment and are not prepayments of the Outstanding Premium Amount.”
|
|
(c)
|
The definition of Daily Interest is deleted and replaced with the following (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall only apply to the New Terms Transaction following the operation of the Transaction Split clause above and in accordance with its terms; with respect to the Previous Terms Transaction, the definition of Daily Interest shall remain unamended):
|
4
|
“Daily Interest:
|
In respect of any day from and including the “Amendment Date” (as defined in the amendment agreement in respect of the Confirmation dated 18 August 2015) to and excluding the Amendment Date 2, an amount equal to: (i) the Outstanding Premium Amount; multiplied by (ii) the sum of EONIA and 1.25%; divided by (iii) 365.
|
|
|
In respect of any day from and including the Amendment Date 2, an amount equal to: (i) the Outstanding Premium Amount; multiplied by (ii) the sum of EONIA and 1.45%; divided by (iii) 365.”

For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Upper Individual Tranches are subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Equity Definitions (and where necessary for that purpose will be treated as a Share Option Transaction and the elections in section 8 of the Confirmation shall also apply to the Upper Individual Tranches). Without limiting the applicability of the foregoing, (i) Section 6.6 of the Equity Definitions will apply if an Upper Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day; and (ii) if an adjustment or modification is made under Article 11 or Article 12 of the Equity Definitions in respect of the Individual Tranches, a corresponding adjustment will also be made in respect of the Upper Individual Tranches so as to preserve the economic effect of the Upper Individual Tranches within the Transaction.
