(ii) all wholesale and retail gas activities of DEPA remained under DEPA, which was renamed to DEPA Commercial SA;
(iii) all DEPA’s participations to international projects were transferred through a spin-off to DEPA International Projects SA. Following the Partial Demerger, HRADF owns shares corresponding to 65 % of the total share capital of DEPA Infrastructure SA and Hellenic Petroleum S.A.
