The meeting was originally convened on June 23, 2006, but was adjourned until a later date because a quorum of common shares was not represented at the meeting.

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 is also enclosed with proxy statements being sent to our U.S. shareholders. If you are an Italian shareholder, you may request a copy of the proxy statement and Form 10-K/A from our Italian office located at Via Ariosto, 23, 20091 Bresso (MI)-Italy, Attn: Finance Director.
YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, it is important that your shares be represented. Therefore, we urge our U.S. shareholders to sign, date and promptly return the enclosed proxy in the enclosed postage paid envelope and we urge our Italian shareholders to request and return an Italian proxy card together with a completed certificate of participation. If your shares are held in a bank or brokerage account, you may be eligible to vote your proxy electronically or by telephone. Please refer to the enclosed voting form for instructions.
I look forward to greeting you personally, and on behalf of the Board of Directors and Management, I would like to express our appreciation for your interest in CTI.
