This Amendment No. 5 (this "Amendment") amends the Statement on
Schedule 13D/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Fiat
Netherlands Holding N.V. ("Holdings") and Fiat S.p.A. ("Fiat") on April 9, 2003,
that amended the amended and restated Statement on Schedule 13D filed by
Holdings and Fiat, as previously amended (the "Schedule 13D"). Unless otherwise
defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Schedule 13D. Except as expressly indicated herein, all references to
"Holdings" in the Schedule 13D are hereby deemed to be references to New
Holding, as the corporate successor to Holdings.
ITEM 2. Identity and Background
Item 2 is hereby amended and restated in full as follows:
(a)-(c) This statement is being filed by Fiat, a corporation organized
under the laws of Italy and Fiat Netherlands Holding N.V. ("New Holding"), a
corporation organized under the laws of the Kingdom of The Netherlands. The
principal business address of Fiat is Via Nizza 250, Turin, 10126, Italy. Fiat
and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Group") are engaged principally in the
manufacture and sale of automobiles, agricultural and construction equipment and
commercial vehicles. The Group also manufactures other products and systems,
principally components, metallurgical products and production systems. In
addition, the Group is involved in other sectors, including publishing and
communications and service operations. The principal business address of New
Holding is Prof. Bavincklaan, 5 Amstelveen, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
New Holding was created on September 5, 2003, through the merger (the
"Merger") of Holdings and another subsidiary of Fiat into Iveco N.V., a company
wholly owned (directly and indirectly) by Fiat. In connection with the Merger,
Iveco N.V. effected a capital increase, issuing to Fiat and another wholly owned
Fiat subsidiary a total of 61,389,795 new shares (par value Euro 46 per share),
and changed its corporate name to Fiat Netherlands Holding N.V., which is
referred to herein as New Holding. New Holding is the direct beneficial owner of
211,866,037 Shares. Fiat may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the Shares
held by New Holding. New Holding is principally engaged in the holding of shares
of the Issuer and of other Group companies.
The name, business address, present principal occupation or employment
(and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other
organization in which such employment is conducted) and citizenship of each
executive officer and director of each of Fiat and New Holding, each person
controlling each of Fiat and New Holding and each executive officer and director
of any corporation or other person in control of each of Fiat and New Holding is
