<p align="center"><font size="4"><b>Eni announces that it will
appeal the ruling on Pieve Vergonte site (Syndial).</b></font></p>

<p><i>San Donato Milanese (Milan), July 16, 2008</i> - Following
a meeting today, Eni Board of Directors has agreed with the
decision by its subsidiary Syndial (former EniChem) to appeal the
ruling of the District Court of Torino on July 8, 2008, ordering
Syndial to pay the Italian Ministry of the Environment the sum of
1.9 billion Euros for damages to the environment caused when
EniChem managed the facilities at Pieve Vergonte from 1990-1996. </p>

<p>An application requesting suspension of enforceability of the
sentence will be presented as soon as possible. Syndial and its
technical-legal consultants consider the sentence and the amount
of the compensation to be without any basis. Syndial underlines
its longstanding commitment to protecting and cleaning up the
site from the contamination which took place well before than
Pieve Vergonte&#146;s transfer to EniChem (now Syndial) as
required by law in the 1980s, following the SIR Group&#146;s
financial problems.</p>
