      S.p.A. Today Announced the Resignation of Umberto Bedini as Chief
      Operating Officer of the Group and the Appointment of Giuseppe Clemente
      in Such Position</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      SANTERAMO IN COLLE, Bari, Italy--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 20,
      2010--Umberto Bedini resigned from the Natuzzi Group (NYSE:NTZ) due to
      some family reasons and decided to take a sabbatical period. He worked
      for the Natuzzi Group for almost 2 years as Chief Operations Officer and
      during these very intensive and demanding years he achieved important
      results.
    </p>
    <p>
      Umberto Bedini commented:&#8220;<i>It is with great regret and sad
      emotion that I resigned from Natuzzi.</i>
    </p>
    <p>
      <i>I take this opportunity to thank all colleagues for the availability
      and support they always provided me with. I thank all the members of the
      Board of Directors and Shareholders for the esteem and understanding
      demonstrated to me. A special thanks goes to the Chairman and CEO and to
      his family &#8211; of which I grew fond during these two years of permanence
      in this extraordinary company &#8211; for the great professional and personal
      experience they offered me and my family. From my side, I hope I have
      given a small contribution in order to put the basis for the re-launch
      of the company. A re-launch that I am sure will arrive very soon as a
      result of the new strategies</i>.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      Giuseppe Clemente will take over the position of COO of Natuzzi Group.
      Giuseppe, who joined our company more than 16 years ago, has been
      covering positions of increasing responsibility. He started as Quality
      Plant Manager, then as Plant Director. In January 2006 he held the
      position as Logistics Manager until January 2009 when he was appointed
      as Italy Manufacturing Director. Such positions have always been covered
      by Giuseppe with great determination and professionalism. In addition,
      Giuseppe Clemente has been in the last 2 years one of the most involved
      collaborators of Umberto Bedini in the reorganization and introduction
      of the most important innovations within the operations process.
    </p>
    <p>
      Finally, it is important to highlight the fact that those managers who
      represent first-lines of operations team, supporting Umberto Bedini in
      the past 2 years, will certainly be able to continue the initiated
      projects, carry out their job in autonomy and collaborate with the new
      COO of the Group.
    </p>
    <p>
      <i>Pasquale Natuzzi Chairman and majority shareholder of Natuzzi Group
      commented: &#8220;I respect Umberto&#8217;s decision and I thank him for the passion
      and professionalism with which he has covered the position of Chief
      Operations Officer during these two years. In line with the company
      decision to give value to the human resources present in the Group and
      to recognize the professional skills achieved in all these years, I have
      decided to appoint Giuseppe Clemente as Chief Operations Officer of the
      Group who will also maintain ad interim the position of Italy
      Manufacturing Director&#8221;.</i>
