On 28 June 2023, SACE, as guarantor of the bond loan, gave consent to the bond holder EBB S.r.l. upon grant of the waiver under the following terms and conditions:

Consent relating to non-compliance with the financial parameters "leverage ratio" and "gearing ratio" (covenant holiday) is granted in relation to all the verification dates until full repayment of the bond

loan. However, the commitments referred to in clause11.2 (disclosure commitments) of the regulation of the bond loan by Giglio Group S.p.a. remain in force;

Therefore, the surety commitment of the holding company Meridiana referred to in Art. 10 ("Regulation of the Loan, Financial Parameters and Further Commitment of the Guarantor") is to be considered no longer in force. In any case, it is understood between the parties that all other obligations and duties assumed by Meridiana Holding Srl pursuant to the guarantee and indemnity agreement dated 10 March 2020 shall remain in force and fully exercisable.
In view of the above, it should be noted that with reference to the guarantee and indemnity agreement dated 10 March 2020, the guaranteed amount referred to in premise D is thus understood to be confirmed at € 1,500,000 together with the commitment to grant a pledge on the shares of Giglio Group S.p.a. for a total of € 4,152,000 in favour of SACE.

The effectiveness of the consent was finalized on June 29, 2023.

On June 4, 2024, the company approved a new business plan for the years 2024-2028, drafted with the assistance of a leading consulting firm.
