and there are covenants which cover the following: in the event the company becomes the target of a merger, demerger or contribution of a business segment outside the Group, or sells, disposes or transfers assets or business segments (except in certain cases, expressly provided for), it shall immediately inform the EIB which shall have the right to ask for guarantees to be provided or changes to be made to the loan contract; "Clause for inclusion" contemplated in the loan contracted on August 5, 2011 for the amount of 100 million euros: against more restrictive clauses (i.e. cross default clauses, financial covenants,

16


commitments restricting the sale of goods) granted by the company in new loan contracts, the EIB will have the right to demand the constitution of guarantees or the amendment of the loan contract in order to have an equivalent regulation in favour of the EIB. That expectation is not applied to the subsidized loans until the total amount of the outstanding capital financed does not exceed the amount of 500 million euros; for all loans not secured by collateral, if the Company's credit rating of unsubordinated and unsecured medium-long term debt is lower than BBB for Standard & Poor's, Baa2 for Moody's and BBB for Fitch Ratings, the company shall immediately inform the EIB, which shall have the right to ask for suitable guarantees to be provided, indicating a date for setting up these guarantees; after that date and if Telecom Italia S.p.A. fails to provide the guarantees, the EIB shall have the right to demand the immediate repayment of the disbursed amount. The current ratings (BBB and Baa2) didn't require new guarantees or repayment of loans. The syndicated bank credit lines of Telecom Italia S.p.A. do not contain financial covenants (e.g. ratios such as Debt/EBITDA, EBITDA/Interests, etc.) which would oblige the Company to repay the outstanding loan if the covenants are not observed. Mechanisms are provided for adjusting the cost of funding in relation to Telecom Italia's credit rating, with a spread added to Euribor of between a minimum of 0.0875% and a maximum of 0.2625% for the line expiring in 2014, and between a minimum of 0.90% and a maximum of 2.50% for the line expiring in 2013. The two syndicated bank credit lines contain the usual other types of covenants, including the commitment not to use the company's assets as collateral for loans (negative pledges), the commitment not to change the business purpose or sell assets of the company unless specific conditions exist (e.g. the sale at the fair market value). Covenants with basically the same content can be found in the export credit loan agreement. In a series of agreements in which Telecom Italia is a party, communication must be provided in case of a change in control: Multi- currency revolving credit facility (8,000,000,000 euros). The agreement was signed between Telecom Italia and a syndicate of banks on August 1, 2005 and subsequently modified. In the event of a change in control, Telecom Italia shall inform the agent within 5 business days and the agent, on behalf of the lending banks, shall negotiate in good faith how to continue the relationship. None of the parties shall be obliged to continue such negotiations beyond the term of 30 days, at the end of which, in the absence of an agreement, the credit facility shall cease to be effective and Telecom Italia shall be held to repay any sum eventually disbursed (currently equal to 1,500,000,000 euros) to the same. Conventionally, no change in control is held to exist in the event control, pursuant to art. 2359 of the Italian Civil Code, is acquired (i) by shareholders who, at the date of signing the agreement held, directly or indirectly, more than 13% of the voting rights in shareholders' meetings or (ii) by the investors (Telefónica S.A., Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A., Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. and Mediobanca S.p.A.) which had signed a shareholder's agreement on April 28, 2007 regarding the Telecom Italia shares, or (iii) by a combination of parties belonging to the above two categories; Revolving credit facility (1,250,000,000 euros). The agreement was signed between Telecom Italia and a syndicate of banks on February 12, 2010 and envisages a structure similar to that contained in the August 1, 2005 credit facility agreement, even though it was updated to take into account of the October 28, 2009 amendment to the April 28, 2007shareholder's agreement. Therefore, no change in control is held to exist in the event control, pursuant to art. 2359 of the Italian Civil Code, is directly or indirectly (through subsidiaries) acquired by the investors Telefónica S.A., Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A., Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. and Mediobanca S.p.A., with the provisions described above remaining unchanged. Currently the facility is unused; Revolving credit facility (200,000,000 euros). The agreement was entered into by Telecom Italia and Unicredit S.p.A. on December 20, 2010 and envisages a discipline basically similar to that of the February 12, 2010 credit facility agreement. Currently the facility is unused; Bonds. The regulations covering the bonds issued under the EMTN Programmes, by both Olivetti and Telecom Italia, and the loans denominated in US dollars, typically provide that, in the event of mergers or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the issuing company or the guarantor, the incorporating or transferee company shall assume all of the obligations of the merged or transferor company. Non-fulfillment of the obligation, for which a solution is not found, is an event of default; Contracts with the European Investment Bank (EIB.) The total nominal amount is 2.95 billion euros: the contracts signed by Telecom Italia with the EIB, for the amount of 2.65 billion euros, carry the obligation of promptly informing the Bank about changes regarding the Bylaws or the allocation of

17


capital among the shareholders which can bring about a change in control. Failure to communicate this information to the Bank shall result in the termination of the contract. Furthermore, when a shareholder, who at the date of signing the contract does not hold at least 2% of the share capital, comes to hold more than 50% of the voting rights in ordinary shareholders' meetings or, in any case, a number of shares such that it represents more than 50% of the share capital and, in the bank's reasonable opinion, this fact could cause a detriment to the Bank or could compromise the execution of the loan project, the Bank has the right to ask Telecom Italia to provide guarantees or modify the contract or find an alternative solution. Should Telecom Italia not comply with the requests of EIB, the Bank has the right to terminate the contract; the contracts signed by Telecom Italia with the EIB in 2011, for a total amount of 300 million euros, carry the obligation of promptly informing the Bank about any significant changes regarding the Bylaws or the shareholders. Failure to communicate this information to the Bank shall result in the termination of the contract. According to these contracts, there is change in control if a subject or a group of subjects acting in concert acquire the control of Telecom Italia, or of the entity controlling it directly or indirectly. There isn't change in control in case the control is acquired directly or indirectly by (i) any shareholder of Telecom Italia that at the date of the contract holds directly or indirectly at least 13% of the voting rights in the ordinary board or (ii) by the investors Telefónica S.A., Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A., Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. and Mediobanca S.p.A. or by their subsidiaries. In case of change in control, the EIB has the right to demand the repayment in advance of the loan; the three contracts guaranteed and dated September 26, 2011, for a total amount of 200 million euros, provide the "clause for inclusion" according to which in case Telecom Italia commits herself to maintain in other loans financial covenants not present or more restrictive than those granted to the EIB, the Bank will have the right to demand the constitution of guarantees or the amendment of the loan contract in order to have an equivalent clause in favour of the EIB. That expectation is not applied to the subsidized loans until the total amount of the outstanding capital financed does not exceed the amount of 500 million euros; Export Credit Agreement (nominal outstanding amount of about 12.5 million euros). The contract was signed in 2004 by Telecom Italia and Société Générale and provides the repayment of the loan in 2013. It is established that, in the event of a change in control and subsequent failure to reach an agreement with the lender bank, Telecom Italia shall repay the outstanding loan at the first date in which the interest payment shall be due; Senior Secured Syndicated Facility (nominal outstanding amount 312,464,000 Argentinean pesos, equal to approximately 48 million euros). The contract was signed in October 2011 between BBVA Banco Francés and Tierra Argentea S.A. (company fully-controlled by the Telecom Italia Group) and provides the repayment of the loan in 2016. The loan (a) is granted by two pledges set up on (i) 15,533,834 Telecom Argentina's shares and (ii) 2,351,752 American depositary Shares (ADS) representing of 117,588 preferred B shares of Nortel Inversora S.A. as well (b) it is assisted by a bank guarantee at first call for a total amount of about USD 22.8 million (equal to about 17.3 million euros). The covenants contractually provided, as negative covenants or financial covenants, are coherent with those of the syndicated credit facilities and with the local market practice; furthermore, there is a clause of change of control that comply the total repayment in advance of the loan in case the Telecom Group holds less than the 100% of Tierra Argentea S.A. or loses the control of the other Argentinean subsidiaries. Furthermore, in the documentation of the loans granted to certain companies of the Tim Brasil group, the companies must generally respect certain financial ratios (e.g. capitalization ratios, ratios for servicing debt and debt ratios), as well as customary negative pledges clauses, worth the request for the repayment in advance of the loan. Finally, as of December 31, 2012, no covenants, negative pledge clauses or other clauses regarding the above described debt position have been breached or violated in any way.

EFFECTS ON KEY FINANCIAL AND OPERATING DATA ARISING FROM THE EARLY ADOPTION OF THE REVISED IAS 19 (EMPLOYEE BENEFITS)
In June 2012, the EU issued Commission Regulation (EU) 475-2012 that endorsed the revised version of IAS 19 (Employee Benefits) ("IAS 19 (2011)") which is applicable retrospectively, starting from January 1, 2013 as provided by IAS 8 (Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors). As permitted, Telecom Italia decided to early adopt the amendments to IAS 19 starting from the Half-year Financial Report at June 30, 2012 in order to reduce the volatility of the values recognized in the separate income statement. In particular, under IAS 19 (2011), with reference to the employee defined benefit plans (e.g. employee severance indemnity), remeasurements of actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other components of other comprehensive income. Therefore, other options previously provided were deleted (including the one adopted by the Telecom Italia Group whereby these components had been recorded in Employee benefits expenses in the separate income statement). Service costs as well as interest expenses related to the "time value" component of the actuarial calculations (the latter reclassified to Finance expenses), are still recognized in the separate income statement. The early adoption of such amendments resulted in the restatement of the separate income statement and the statement of comprehensive income of the Telecom Italia Group and Telecom Italia S.p.A. for 2011. The effects are as follows:

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
The early adoption of the amendments to IAS 19 did not have an impact on the "Aggregate cash flows" of the 2011 statement of cash flows of the Telecom Italia Group and Telecom Italia S.p.A. and, in particular, on the "Cash flows from (used in) operating activities".
