APPROVAL AND PUBLICATION OF A SUPPLEMENT TO THE PROSPECTUS RELATING TO THE RIGHTS ISSUE

UniCredit S.p.A. (the “Company” or “UniCredit”) informs that on 15 February 2017, following the approval by the Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa (CONSOB), it published a supplement (the “Supplement”) to the prospectus relating to the rights offering and admission to listing on the Mercato Telematico Azionario organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (MTA), on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) and on the main regulated market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange (rynek podstawowy Giełdy Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie S.A.) of ordinary shares of the Company (the “Prospectus”), approved by CONSOB on 3 February 2017.

The Supplement was prepared, pursuant to article 94, paragraph 7, and article 113, paragraph 2, of the Legislative Decree no. 58 of 24 February 1998, as subsequently amended, and the relevant implementing provisions, for the purpose of supplementing the information contained in the Prospectus following to: (i) the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company dated 9 February 2017 which approved both on an individual

and consolidated basis the preliminary figures relating to the Q4 2016 and the preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2016, also for the purpose of European Union harmonised, consolidated regulatory reporting (FINancial REPorting – FINREP) pursuant to the applicable binding implementation technical standards; and (ii) the signing, on 4 February 2017, of an agreement with the Trade Unions related to the redundancies envisaged in Italy as part of the “Transform 2019” UniCredit Group’s strategic plan.

Pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, the investors that agreed to subscribe new shares that were the object of the offer in Italy during the period between 6 February 2017 and the date of publication of the Supplement in Italy (included) are informed that they have the right to revoke their subscription within two business days from the date of publication of the Supplement, i.e. until 17 February 2017 (included), at the depositary intermediary where the subscription rights were exercised.

The Supplement is available at the Registered Office of UniCredit, at Via A. Specchi, 16, Rome, at the Head Office of UniCredit, at Piazza Gae Aulenti 3 - Tower A, Milan and on the Company's website www.unicreditgroup.eu.

In order to fulfil the so-called “passporting procedure”, set forth in the European applicable law, in Germany and Poland, the Company prepared an English translation of the Supplement (the “English Supplement”) as well as German and Polish translations of the supplemented summary note identifying the changes made to the original Summary Note (the “Supplemented Notes”). Following to the accomplishment of such “passporting procedure”, the English Supplement and the respective Supplemented Notes will be made available in Germany and Poland on the Company's website www.unicreditgroup.eu.

Moreover, following the publication of the Supplement, certain incorrect data reported on pages 4 and 6 of the English version of UniCredit’s Press Release 4Q16 and FY16 Group Preliminary Results (“Press Release”) and on page 15 of UniCredit Group Results Presentation 4Q16 and FY16 (“Market Presentation”), have been corrected. In particular, the published figures of the “adjusted cost/income ratio” are to be considered

as follows: 61.1% (instead of 58.8%) in FY2016, 61.8% (instead of 62.1%) in FY2015, 64.5% (instead of 64.3%) in 4Q16, 60.7% (instead of 60.9%) in 3Q16 and 61.1% (instead of 61.7%) in 4Q15. Accordingly, the Press Release and Market Presentation have been updated on the UniCredit website www.unicreditgroup.eu.
