On May 7 and May 14, 2010, in accordance with Italian law, the requisite Italian Internal Dealing forms were filed with Borsa and CONSOB to disclose the transactions described below.
On May 3, 2010, Delfin S.a.r.l. sold to Antonio Miyakawa, Executive Vice President, Marketing, Style & Product of Luxottica Group S.p.A. (the “Company”), pursuant to grants made to him under the Delfin plan, 200,000 ordinary shares of the stock of the Company at a strike price of Euro 13.67 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of Euro 2,734,000.
Through a series of transactions completed on the Milan Stock Exchange’s Mercato Telematico Azionario, Mr. Miyakawa sold:
· 140,000 ordinary shares of the Company on May 4, 2010, with an average price per share of Euro 20.57;
· 5,000 ordinary shares of the Company on May 10, 2010, with an average price per share of Euro 20.44; and
· 18,000 ordinary shares of the Company on May 12, 2010, with an average price per share of Euro 20.99.
The Delfin plan was established in 2004. At that time, the Company’s Chairman and majority shareholder, Mr. Leonardo Del Vecchio, allocated shares held through La Leonardo Finanziaria S.r.l. (subsequently merged into Delfin S.a.r.l.), a holding company of the Del Vecchio family, representing, at that time, 2.11 percent (or 9.6 million shares) of the Company’s currently authorized and issued share capital, to a stock option plan for top management of the Company at an exercise price of Euro 13.67 per share. The stock options to be issued under the stock option plan vested upon meeting certain economic objectives in June 2006.
