Source text - Italian Sulla scorta di tali elementi, il Pubblico Ministero ha contestato l'illecito amministrativo alla società prima che maturasse il termine di prescrizione di cui al comma 1 dell'articolo 22 del Decreto n. 231/01.
Se il tempus commissi delicti con riferimento al terzo episodio di corruzione, quello relativo all'agenziamento delle navi gasiere, non può collocarsi prima del 29.11.2002, in data anteriore e prossima al marzo 2003 può ragionevolmente collocarsi la data dell'ulteriore pattuizione illecita avente ad oggetto la partecipazione di XXX agli utili che sarebbero stati generati dai lavori di costruzione dell'impianto di rigassificazione, una parte dei quali sarebbe stata affidata in subappalto ad un consorzio di imprese locali riconducibile proprio all'ex Sindaco
Al pari dell'agenziamento delle navi gasiere, lo svolgimento dei lavori finalizzati alla materiale realizzazione dell'impianto di rigassificazione acquisiva, infatti, concretezza ed attualità, proprio dopo la Conferenza dei Servizi del 15/11/2002.
La motivazione spesa dal Tribunale per ritenere l'insussistenza di un pactum sceleris tra XXX, da un lato, e YYY avente ad oggetto i lavori di costruzione dell'impianto, non appare condivisibile perché tale insussistenza il Tribunale ritiene alla luce di fatti accaduti molto tempo dopo il pactum sceleris: ci si riferisce al primo arresto di XXX, nell'ottobre del 2003, a seguito del quale egli veniva meno alle sue funzioni di sindaco.
Translation - English On the basis of such factors, the prosecutor notified the administrative offence to the company before the expiry of the limitation period referred to in paragraph 1 of Article 22 of Decree no. 231/01.
If the tempus commissi delicti with reference to the third episode of corruption, the one related to the agency of gas tankers, cannot be placed before 29.11.2002, we can reasonably place at an earlier date, around March 2003, the date of the further unlawful stipulation concerning XXX’s participation in the profits that would have been generated by the LNG plant construction works, a portion of which would have been subcontracted to a consortium of local companies attributable precisely to the former Mayor.
Indeed, like the agency for the gas tankers, the execution of works for the actual construction of the LNG plant became concrete and real just after the Conference of Services held on 15/11/2002.
The reason put forward by the Court for assuming the non-existence of a pactum sceleris between XXX on the one side and YYY on the other, having as aim the construction of the plant, does not appear shareable because the Court considers this non-existence in the light of historical facts that took place long after the pactum sceleris: reference is made to the first arrest of XXX in October 2003, following which he was removed from his mayoral duties.

Source text - Italian Criteri di redazione
Il bilancio d’esercizio al 31 dicembre 2008 è stato predisposto in conformità alle vigenti leggi che ne disciplinano la redazione interpretate ed integrate dai principi contabili emanati dai Consigli Nazionali dei Dottori Commercialisti e dei Ragionieri e dall’Organismo Italiano di Contabilità.
Il bilancio è costituito dallo Stato Patrimoniale, dal Conto Economico e dalla Nota Integrativa ed è corredato dalla Relazione degli Amministratori sulla Gestione.
Per ogni voce dello Stato Patrimoniale e del Conto Economico sono riportati, ai fini comparativi, i valori di bilancio al 31 dicembre 2007.
Lo Stato Patrimoniale ed il Conto Economico esprimono i valori arrotondati all’unità di Euro; la differenza rispetto al valore puntuale al centesimo viene iscritta fra i proventi e gli oneri straordinari se riferita al Conto Economico o tra le riserve di patrimonio netto se riferita allo Stato Patrimoniale. Nella Nota Integrativa, per una maggiore chiarezza espositiva, si è ritenuto preferibile indicare tutti gli importi arrotondati alle migliaia di Euro; di conseguenza, in alcuni prospetti, gli importi totali possono leggermente discostarsi dalla somma degli importi che li compongono.
Il bilancio al 31 dicembre 2008 è stato sottoposto a revisione da parte della società Reconta Ernst & Young S.p.A..
Principi contabili e criteri di valutazione
Specifichiamo di seguito i principi contabili adottati ed i criteri di valutazione applicati, e conformi, senza alcuna deroga, a quanto specificato nell’art.2423 bis e 2426 del Codice Civile.
I criteri di valutazione adottati per la redazione del bilancio al 31 dicembre 2008 sono conformi a quelli utilizzati nel precedente esercizio.
Immobilizzazioni Immateriali
Le immobilizzazioni immateriali sono iscritte al costo di acquisto, o di produzione, ed ammortizzate a quote costanti in relazione alla loro utilità temporale, avuto altresì riguardo alla residua possibilità di utilizzazione.
Il costo di acquisto include eventuali oneri accessori di diretta imputazione, ma esclude gli oneri finanziari ad esso relativi. L'aliquota di ammortamento applicata alle attività immateriali è del 20%, salvo casi specifici correlati ad una utilità temporale superiore a cinque esercizi.
Nel caso in cui non si preveda la loro piena recuperabilità vengono effettuate le necessarie svalutazioni
Translation - English Preparation of Accounts – Criteria
The Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2007 have been prepared in compliance with applicable law, interpreted and integrated by the accounting principles issued by the National Boards of Chartered Accountants (Consigli Nazionali dei Dottori Commercialisti e dei Ragionieri) and the Italian Accounting Authority.
The Financial Statements comprise of a Balance Sheet, an Income Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements and a Management Report on operations.
For comparative reasons, each line item of the Balance Sheet and Income Statement is shown against the values of the Financial Statements ended 31 December 2007.
Amounts shown on the Balance Sheet and Income Statement are rounded to the nearest Euro; the difference, in terms of Euro cents, is booked under extraordinary income and expenses (for Income statement accounts) or under shareholder reserves (for Balance Sheet accounts). For the sake of clarity, the Notes to the Financial Statements show all amounts rounded to the nearest thousand Euros; accordingly, in a number of the detail schedules, the total amounts may vary slightly compared to the sum of the individual line items.
The financial statements as of 31 December 2008 have been audited by Reconta Ernst & Young S.p.A.
Accounting principles and valuation criteria
We provide hereunder the accounting principles adopted and the valuation criteria applied, fully compliant, for by articles 2423-ii and 2426 of the Italian Civil Code.
The valuation criteria used in preparing the financial statements as of 31 December 2008 comply with those used in the previous accounting year.
Intangible Fixed Assets
Intangible fixed assets are booked at their purchase or production cost and are amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful life, taking into account any residual useful life.
The purchase price includes all accessory costs directly related to the asset, but excludes any financial charges related to the same. The annual rate of amortisation used for intangible fixed assets is 20%, except for specific cases where the useful life is greater than five years.
The required devaluations are made in instances where the full recovery of the asset is not expected
