 Reverse of $1,250,000,000 4% Guaranteed Senior Global Notes 
 due January 15, 2010 
  
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more
series under an Indenture, dated as of October 6, 2004 (the “Indenture” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among the Issuer, Telecom Italia S.p.A., a joint stock company established under the laws
of the Republic of Italy (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to herein), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any
other successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders
of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof and shall not be limited in aggregate principal amount. 
  
 The Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders, create
and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions as the Securities in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date, the first payment of interest thereon and/or issue price), so that such further issue shall be
consolidated and form a single series with the outstanding Securities or upon such terms as the Issuer may determine at the time of their issue. 
  
 The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice by mail, at any time on or after July 15,
2006 as a whole or in part, at the election of the Issuer, at the greater of (x) 100% of their aggregate principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest to (but excluding) the date fixed for such redemption or (y) a Make-Whole Amount. 

 
 The Securities may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer or the
Guarantor, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided in the Indenture, at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date fixed for
redemption if as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of the jurisdiction (or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Issuer or the
Guarantor is incorporated (or in the case of a successor Person to the Issuer or the Guarantor, of the jurisdiction in which such successor Person is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or any change in the
official application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which such jurisdiction or
such political subdivision or taxing authority (or such other jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority) is a party, which change, execution or amendment becomes effective on or after October 6, 2004 (or, in the case of a successor
Person to the Issuer or the Guarantor, the date on which such successor Person became such pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture) (i) the Issuer or the Guarantor (or such successor Person) is or would be required to pay Additional
Amounts with respect to the Securities or the Guarantees, respectively, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date as set forth below or in the Guarantee endorsed hereon or (ii) the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor is or would be
required 

 
to deduct or withhold tax on any payment to the Issuer to enable the Issuer to make any payment of principal or interest in respect of the Securities and, in
each case, the payment of such Additional Amounts in the case of (i) above or such deduction or withholding in the case of (ii) above cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures available to the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Subsidiary.

  
 The Securities may also be redeemed in whole but not in part
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided in the Indenture at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption if the Person formed by a
consolidation of the Issuer or the Guarantor or into which the Issuer or the Guarantor is merged or to which the Issuer or the Guarantor conveys, transfers or leases its properties and assets substantially as an entirety is required to pay a Holder
additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed on any such Holder or required to be withheld or deducted from any payment to such Holder as a consequence of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or
lease. However, the Securities may not be redeemed if the sole purpose of such a merger would be to permit such redemption. 
  
 Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, all as
provided in the Indenture. 
  
 In the event of redemption of this
Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
  
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire
indebtedness of this Security upon compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantor with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
  

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be
declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
  
 If any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes or other governmental charges (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, any increase in the rate of the tax described in clause (6) below) of the
Relevant Jurisdiction shall at any time be required by the Relevant Jurisdiction in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Issuer under the Securities, the Issuer will pay to the Holder of this Security, such additional amounts as may be necessary
in order that the net amounts paid to such Holder of such Security shall be not less than the amounts specified in such Security to which such Holder is entitled; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to make any
payment of additional amounts for or on account of: 
  
 (1) any
tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder and the Relevant Jurisdiction (other than the mere holding of a Security and the receipt of payments
thereon), including, without limitation, such Holder being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; 
  

 2 

 (2) the application of European Directive 2003/48/EC of June 3, 2003, on the taxation of income from
savings, as well as any equivalent measure adopted according to such directive; 
  
 (3) any tax or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure to comply with any applicable certification, information, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements
concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction if such compliance is required as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax or other governmental charge (including without limitation a
certification that such Holder is not resident in the Relevant Jurisdiction or an individual resident in a member state of the European Union); 
  
 (4) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for a change in law that becomes effective more than 30 days after a
payment by the Issuer under the Securities becomes due and payable, or is duly provided for and notice thereof is duly published, whichever occurs later; 
  
 (5) any tax or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any Paying Agent from a payment on a Security, if such payment can be made without
such deduction or withholding by any other Paying Agent; 
  
 (6)
any tax or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to Italian Law No. 239 of April 1, 1996, as amended, on Holders not resident, for income tax purposes, in Italy and not resident, for income tax purposes, in the countries identified in the
Decree of the Ministry of Finance of Italy of September 4, 1996, as amended or any superseding Decree replacing or modifying such list of countries; or 
  
 (7) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) above. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis to any withholding or deduction for or on account of any
present or future taxes or governmental charges of whatever nature of any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer is organized, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. In addition, neither the Issuer nor
the Guarantor shall have any obligation to pay Additional Amounts to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or an entity that is not the sole beneficial owner of the payment of the principal or interest on a Security to the extent that the laws
of the Relevant Jurisdiction require the payment to be included in the income of a beneficiary or settlor for tax purposes with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such partnership or the beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the
Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Security. 
  
 Upon request, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee with documentation (which may consist of certified copies of such documentation) satisfactory to the
Trustee evidencing the payment of Luxembourg taxes with respect to payment on the Securities. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Owners of the Securities or the Paying Agent, as applicable, upon request therefor. 

 
 The Issuer shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, and all
documentary stamp or similar taxes, if any, which may be imposed by The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, or any other 

  

 3 

 
governmental entity or political subdivision therein or thereof or any taxing authority of or in any of the foregoing, with respect to the Indenture, the
initial issuance of this Security, any transfer of this Security or payment orders relating to this Security. The Issuer shall not assert or claim any exemption available to it in respect of any stamp or other duties, or documentary stamp or similar
taxes, which it has agreed to pay under the preceding sentence, if, after the assertion or claiming of such exemption, Holders or Owners of this Security would be liable for such duty or tax. 
  
 All references in this Security to principal, premium or interest in respect
of any Security shall be deemed to mean and include all Additional Amounts, if any, payable in respect of such principal, premium or interest, unless the context otherwise requires, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts in any
provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding reference to Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made. 
  
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer
and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
  
 As set forth in,
and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Security of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, the Guarantee endorsed hereon, this Security or for any remedy thereunder,
unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this
series shall have made written request, and offered reasonable indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal of the Outstanding Securities of
this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the
enforcement of payment of the principal (and premium, if any) or any interest on this Security on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
  
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert this security as provided in the Indenture. 
  

 4 

 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like
tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of
authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
  
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require from the Holder hereof payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
  
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security
is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. For the avoidance of doubt the provisions of Articles 86 to 94-8 of the Luxembourg law on commercial companies of August 10, 1915, as amended, are excluded. 
  
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 GUARANTEE 
  
 For value received, Telecom Italia S.p.A., a joint stock company established under the laws of the Republic of Italy, having its registered office at
Piazza degli Affari 2, 20123 Milan, Italy (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), hereby fully, unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is granted and to the Trustee, in its individual and trust capacities, and on behalf of each such Holder the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on such Security (and, if applicable, any Additional Amounts) the due and punctual payment of the sinking fund or analogous payments referred to therein, if any, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the
Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein and the other monetary obligations of the Issuer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 607. In
case of the failure of Telecom Italia Capital (the “Issuer”, which term includes any successor Person under such Indenture), punctually to make any such payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest or any sinking fund or analogous
payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if
such payment were made by the Issuer. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby
further agrees, subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth below, that if any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes or other governmental charges (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, any increase in the rate of the
tax described in clause (f) below) of the Relevant Jurisdiction shall at any time be required by the Relevant Jurisdiction in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Guarantor under this Guarantee, then the Guarantor will pay to the Holder of a
Security as additional interest such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to the Holder of such Security shall be not less than the amounts specified in such Security to which such Holder is entitled;
provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be required to make any payment of additional amounts for or on account of: 
  
 (a) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder
and the Relevant Jurisdiction (other than the mere holding of a Security and the receipt of payments thereon), including, without limitation, such Holder being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged
in trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; 
  
 (b) the application of European Directive 2003/48/EC of June 3, 2003, on the taxation of income from savings, as well as any equivalent measure adopted according to such directive; 
  
 (c) any tax or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but
for a failure to comply with any applicable certification, information, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction if such compliance is
required as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax or other governmental charge (including without limitation a certification that such Holder is not resident in the Relevant Jurisdiction or an individual resident in a member state of
the European Union); 

 (d) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for a change in law that
becomes effective more than 30 days after a payment by the Guarantor under this Guarantee becomes due and payable, or is duly provided for and notice thereof is duly published, whichever occurs later; 
  
 (e) any tax or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any
Paying Agent from a payment on a Security, if such payment can be made without such deduction or withholding by any other Paying Agent; 
  
 (f) any tax or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to Italian Law No. 239 of April 1, 1996, as amended, on Holders not resident, for income tax
purposes, in Italy and not resident, for income tax purposes, in the countries identified in Decree of the Ministry of Finance of Italy of September 4, 1996, as amended, or any superseding Decree replacing or modifying such list of countries; or

  
 (g) any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f)
above. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis
mutandis to any withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes or governmental charges of whatever nature of any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Guarantor is organized, or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein. In addition, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall have any obligation to pay Additional Amounts to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or an entity that is not the sole beneficial owner of the
payment of the principal or interest on a Security to the extent that the laws of the Relevant Jurisdiction require the payment to be included in the income of a beneficiary or settlor for tax purposes with respect to such fiduciary, a member of
such partnership or the beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Security. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it
were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute, full and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of such Security or such Indenture, any failure to enforce the
provisions of such Security or such Indenture, or any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Issuer with respect thereto, by the Holder of such Security or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of such
Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof or, increase the principal amounts of any Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable
upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to
require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest or notice with respect to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced 

  

 2 

 
thereby or with respect to any sinking fund or analogous payment required under such Security and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee
will not be discharged except by payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security. 
  
 This Guarantee (i) is a direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and (ii) ranks at least pari passu in right
of payment with all other senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantor now or hereafter outstanding (other than obligations preferred by applicable law) and senior in priority of payment and in all other respects to all other
obligations of the Guarantor that are designated as subordinate or junior in right of payment to this Guarantee. 
  
 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Security and the Trustee against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to such
Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all outstanding Securities of the same series issued under such Indenture shall have been paid in full. 
  
 No reference herein to such Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of such Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantee of the Guarantor, which
is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and any sinking fund or analogous payments with respect to, the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed. 
  
 The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall, without any
further act or thing being required to be done or to occur, extend to the obligations of any successor Person who is not the Guarantor arising in respect of the Securities by virtue of a substitution pursuant to the Indenture. 
  
 This Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the
certificate of authentication of such Security shall have been manually executed by or on behalf of the Trustee under such Indenture. 
  
 All terms used in this Guarantee which are defined in such Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture. 
  
 The Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York. 
  
 Claims against the Issuer
and the Guarantor for payment of principal in respect of the Indenture shall be prescribed unless made within ten years from the date of payment of the relevant series of securities.

 Reverse of $1,250,000,000 4.95% Guaranteed Senior Global Notes 
 due September 30, 2014 
  
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more
series under an Indenture, dated as of October 6, 2004 (the “Indenture” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among the Issuer, Telecom Italia S.p.A., a joint stock company established under the laws
of the Republic of Italy (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to herein), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any
other successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders
of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof and shall not be limited in aggregate principal amount. 
  
 The Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders, create
and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions as the Securities in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date, the first payment of interest thereon and/or issue price), so that such further issue shall be
consolidated and form a single series with the outstanding Securities or upon such terms as the Issuer may determine at the time of their issue. 
  
 The Securities of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice by mail, at any time on or after
September 30, 2006 as a whole or in part, at the election of the Issuer, at the greater of (x) 100% of their aggregate principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest to (but excluding) the date fixed for such redemption or (y) a Make-Whole
Amount. 
  
 The Securities may be redeemed at the option of the
Issuer or the Guarantor, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided in the Indenture, at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date
fixed for redemption if as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder of the jurisdiction (or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the Issuer or
the Guarantor is incorporated (or in the case of a successor Person to the Issuer or the Guarantor, of the jurisdiction in which such successor Person is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or any change in
the official application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which such
jurisdiction or such political subdivision or taxing authority (or such other jurisdiction or political subdivision or taxing authority) is a party, which change, execution or amendment becomes effective on or after October 6, 2004 (or, in the case
of a successor Person to the Issuer or the Guarantor, the date on which such successor Person became such pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture) (i) the Issuer or the Guarantor (or such successor Person) is or would be required to
pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities or the Guarantees, respectively, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date as set forth below or in the Guarantee endorsed hereon or (ii) the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor is or
would be required 

 
to deduct or withhold tax on any payment to the Issuer to enable the Issuer to make any payment of principal or interest in respect of the Securities and, in
each case, the payment of such Additional Amounts in the case of (i) above or such deduction or withholding in the case of (ii) above cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures available to the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Subsidiary.

  
 The Securities may also be redeemed in whole but not in part
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given as provided in the Indenture at any time at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption if the Person formed by a
consolidation of the Issuer or the Guarantor or into which the Issuer or the Guarantor is merged or to which the Issuer or the Guarantor conveys, transfers or leases its properties and assets substantially as an entirety is required to pay a Holder
additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed on any such Holder or required to be withheld or deducted from any payment to such Holder as a consequence of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or
lease. However, the Securities may not be redeemed if the sole purpose of such a merger would be to permit such redemption. 
  
 Notice of redemption will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, all as
provided in the Indenture. 
  
 In the event of redemption of this
Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
  
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire
indebtedness of this Security upon compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantor with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
  

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be
declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
  
 If any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes or other governmental charges (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, any increase in the rate of the tax described in clause (6) below) of the
Relevant Jurisdiction shall at any time be required by the Relevant Jurisdiction in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Issuer under the Securities, the Issuer will pay to the Holder of this Security, such additional amounts as may be necessary
in order that the net amounts paid to such Holder of such Security shall be not less than the amounts specified in such Security to which such Holder is entitled; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to make any
payment of additional amounts for or on account of: 
  
 (1) any
tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder and the Relevant Jurisdiction (other than the mere holding of a Security and the receipt of payments
thereon), including, without limitation, such Holder being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; 
  

 2 

 (2) the application of European Directive 2003/48/EC of June 3, 2003, on the taxation of income from
savings, as well as any equivalent measure adopted according to such directive; 
  
 (3) any tax or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure to comply with any applicable certification, information, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements
concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction if such compliance is required as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax or other governmental charge (including without limitation a
certification that such Holder is not resident in the Relevant Jurisdiction or an individual resident in a member state of the European Union); 
  
 (4) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for a change in law that becomes effective more than 30 days after a
payment by the Issuer under the Securities becomes due and payable, or is duly provided for and notice thereof is duly published, whichever occurs later; 
  
 (5) any tax or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any Paying Agent from a payment on a Security, if such payment can be made without
such deduction or withholding by any other Paying Agent; 
  
 (6)
any tax or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to Italian Law No. 239 of April 1, 1996, as amended, on Holders not resident, for income tax purposes, in Italy and not resident, for income tax purposes, in the countries identified in the
Decree of the Ministry of Finance of Italy of September 4, 1996, as amended or any superseding Decree replacing or modifying such list of countries; or 
  
 (7) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) above. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis to any withholding or deduction for or on account of any
present or future taxes or governmental charges of whatever nature of any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Issuer is organized, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. In addition, neither the Issuer nor
the Guarantor shall have any obligation to pay Additional Amounts to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or an entity that is not the sole beneficial owner of the payment of the principal or interest on a Security to the extent that the laws
of the Relevant Jurisdiction require the payment to be included in the income of a beneficiary or settlor for tax purposes with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such partnership or the beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the
Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Security. 
  
 Upon request, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee with documentation (which may consist of certified copies of such documentation) satisfactory to the
Trustee evidencing the payment of Luxembourg taxes with respect to payment on the Securities. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Owners of the Securities or the Paying Agent, as applicable, upon request therefor. 

 
 The Issuer shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, and all
documentary stamp or similar taxes, if any, which may be imposed by The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, or any other 

  

 3 

 
governmental entity or political subdivision therein or thereof or any taxing authority of or in any of the foregoing, with respect to the Indenture, the
initial issuance of this Security, any transfer of this Security or payment orders relating to this Security. The Issuer shall not assert or claim any exemption available to it in respect of any stamp or other duties, or documentary stamp or similar
taxes, which it has agreed to pay under the preceding sentence, if, after the assertion or claiming of such exemption, Holders or Owners of this Security would be liable for such duty or tax. 
  
 All references in this Security to principal, premium or interest in respect
of any Security shall be deemed to mean and include all Additional Amounts, if any, payable in respect of such principal, premium or interest, unless the context otherwise requires, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts in any
provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding reference to Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made. 
  
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer
and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuer or the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
  
 As set forth in,
and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Security of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, the Guarantee endorsed hereon, this Security or for any remedy thereunder,
unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this
series shall have made written request, and offered reasonable indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal of the Outstanding Securities of
this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the
enforcement of payment of the principal (and premium, if any) or any interest on this Security on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
  
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert this security as provided in the Indenture. 
  

 4 

 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of
$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like
tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of
authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
  
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require from the Holder hereof payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
  
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security
is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. For the avoidance of doubt the provisions of Articles 86 to 94-8 of the Luxembourg law on commercial companies of August 10, 1915, as amended, are excluded. 
  
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 GUARANTEE 
  
 For value received, Telecom Italia S.p.A., a joint stock company established under the laws of the Republic of Italy, having its registered office at
Piazza degli Affari 2, 20123 Milan, Italy (herein called the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), hereby fully, unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is granted and to the Trustee, in its individual and trust capacities, and on behalf of each such Holder the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on such Security (and, if applicable, any Additional Amounts) the due and punctual payment of the sinking fund or analogous payments referred to therein, if any, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the
Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Indenture referred to therein and the other monetary obligations of the Issuer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 607. In
case of the failure of Telecom Italia Capital (the “Issuer”, which term includes any successor Person under such Indenture), punctually to make any such payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest or any sinking fund or analogous
payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as if
such payment were made by the Issuer. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby
further agrees, subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth below, that if any deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes or other governmental charges (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, any increase in the rate of the
tax described in clause (f) below) of the Relevant Jurisdiction shall at any time be required by the Relevant Jurisdiction in respect of any amounts to be paid by the Guarantor under this Guarantee, then the Guarantor will pay to the Holder of a
Security as additional interest such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to the Holder of such Security shall be not less than the amounts specified in such Security to which such Holder is entitled;
provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be required to make any payment of additional amounts for or on account of: 
  
 (a) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder
and the Relevant Jurisdiction (other than the mere holding of a Security and the receipt of payments thereon), including, without limitation, such Holder being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged
in trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein; 
  
 (b) the application of European Directive 2003/48/EC of June 3, 2003, on the taxation of income from savings, as well as any equivalent measure adopted according to such directive; 
  
 (c) any tax or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but
for a failure to comply with any applicable certification, information, identification, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction if such compliance is
required as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax or other governmental charge (including without limitation a certification that such Holder is not resident in the Relevant Jurisdiction or an individual resident in a member state of
the European Union); 

 (d) any tax or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for a change in law that
becomes effective more than 30 days after a payment by the Guarantor under this Guarantee becomes due and payable, or is duly provided for and notice thereof is duly published, whichever occurs later; 
  
 (e) any tax or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any
Paying Agent from a payment on a Security, if such payment can be made without such deduction or withholding by any other Paying Agent; 
  
 (f) any tax or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to Italian Law No. 239 of April 1, 1996, as amended, on Holders not resident, for income tax
purposes, in Italy and not resident, for income tax purposes, in the countries identified in Decree of the Ministry of Finance of Italy of September 4, 1996, as amended, or any superseding Decree replacing or modifying such list of countries; or

  
 (g) any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f)
above. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall apply mutatis
mutandis to any withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes or governmental charges of whatever nature of any jurisdiction in which any successor Person to the Guarantor is organized, or any political subdivision or
taxing authority thereof or therein. In addition, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall have any obligation to pay Additional Amounts to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or an entity that is not the sole beneficial owner of the
payment of the principal or interest on a Security to the extent that the laws of the Relevant Jurisdiction require the payment to be included in the income of a beneficiary or settlor for tax purposes with respect to such fiduciary, a member of
such partnership or the beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Security. 
  
 The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be as if it
were principal debtor and not merely surety, and shall be absolute, full and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of such Security or such Indenture, any failure to enforce the
provisions of such Security or such Indenture, or any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Issuer with respect thereto, by the Holder of such Security or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of such
Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, or increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof, or alter the Stated Maturity thereof or, increase the principal amounts of any Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable
upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502. The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to
require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest or notice with respect to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced 

  

 2 

 
thereby or with respect to any sinking fund or analogous payment required under such Security and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee
will not be discharged except by payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Security. 
  
 This Guarantee (i) is a direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligation of the Guarantor and (ii) ranks at least pari passu in right
of payment with all other senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantor now or hereafter outstanding (other than obligations preferred by applicable law) and senior in priority of payment and in all other respects to all other
obligations of the Guarantor that are designated as subordinate or junior in right of payment to this Guarantee. 
  
 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Security and the Trustee against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to such
Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon such right of subrogation until the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all outstanding Securities of the same series issued under such Indenture shall have been paid in full. 
  
 No reference herein to such Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of such Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantee of the Guarantor, which
is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, and any sinking fund or analogous payments with respect to, the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed. 
  
 The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall, without any
further act or thing being required to be done or to occur, extend to the obligations of any successor Person who is not the Guarantor arising in respect of the Securities by virtue of a substitution pursuant to the Indenture. 
  
 This Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the
certificate of authentication of such Security shall have been manually executed by or on behalf of the Trustee under such Indenture. 
  
 All terms used in this Guarantee which are defined in such Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture. 
  
 The Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York. 
  
 Claims against the Issuer
and the Guarantor for payment of principal in respect of the Indenture shall be prescribed unless made within ten years from the date of payment of the relevant series of securities.
