Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (NYSE: FCAU) ("FCA") announced today that it plans to offer $3 billion in aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior debt securities (the "Notes") in one or more series, subject to market conditions.

The Notes will be offered and sold under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

In member states of the European Economic Area which have implemented European Directive 2003/71/EC, as amended (the "Prospectus Directive") the offering will only be addressed to, and directed at, persons who are "qualified investors" within the meaning of Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive.
