<strong>IT</strong> HOLDING S.p.A. Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003<br />
Fair value has been determined either by reference to market value at the balance sheet date or by discounting the<br />
relevant cash flows using current interest rates for similar instruments without any credit spread. Had the Group<br />
considered its credit spread, the difference between fair value and carrying amount would have been lower.<br />
