Annex III Special conditions
For the purpose of paragraphs 18 and 45(iii) of these Final Terms, the exercise of each Series of Warrants is automatic on the Maturity Date. Any Cash Settlement Amount shall be credited, within five Business Days following the Valuation Date, through the Calculation Agent, to the account of the relevant intermediary in Monte Titoli.
The Calculation Agent and the Issuer shall not apply any charge for the automatic exercise of the Warrants. Other taxes, duties and/or expenses, including any applicable depository charges, transaction or exercise charges, stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax, issue, registration, securities transfer and/or other taxes or duties which may arise in connection with the automatic exercise of the Warrants are in charge of the Holder.
(A) Renouncement Right
The Holder has the right to renounce to the exercise of the relevant Warrants held by it (subject as set out below). In this case a duly completed renouncement notice (a Renouncement Notice) must be delivered by facsimile to the Calculation Agent prior to 10.00 a.m. Milan time on the Maturity Date (with respect to Warrants linked to Shares specified in Annex I – Table A) or on the first Business Day following the Maturity Date (with respect to Warrants linked to Shares specified in Annex I – Table B), at the facsimile number set out in the form of Renouncement Notice attached as Annex IV to these Final Terms.
The Holder must deliver the completed Renouncement Notice to his/her intermediary who will be in charge of sending it by facsimile to the Calculation Agent.
The Calculation Agent and the Issuer shall not apply any charge for the renouncement to the exercise of the Warrants.
Other taxes, duties and/or expenses, including any applicable depository charges, transaction or exercise charges, stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax, issue, registration, securities transfer and/or other taxes or duties which may arise in connection with the renouncement of any Warrants duties are in charge of the Holder.
In the event that a Holder does not perform its obligations and so deliver, where applicable, a duly completed Renouncement Notice in accordance with the provisions hereof, such Warrants shall be exercised automatically and shall be repaid in the manner set out herein, and the Issuer's obligations in respect of such Warrants shall be discharged and no further liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer.
The number of Warrants specified in the Renouncement Notice must be a multiple of a Unit, otherwise such number of Warrants so specified shall be rounded down to the preceding multiple of Units and the Renouncement Notice shall not be considered valid in respect of the Warrants exceeding such rounded number of Warrants.
The minimum number of Warrants specified in the Renouncement Notice must be equal to one Unit, otherwise the Renouncement Notice shall not be considered valid.
The Calculation Agent will, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether the above conditions are satisfactorily met and its determination will be final, conclusive and binding on the Issuer and on the Holders.
The Renouncement Notice is irrevocable.
(B) Exercise Right
The Holder also has the right to exercise the relevant Warrants prior to the Maturity Date. In this case a duly completed voluntary exercise notice (a Voluntary Exercise Notice) must be delivered by facsimile to the Calculation Agent prior to 10.00 a.m. Milan time on any Exercise Business Day during the Exercise Period (the Effective Exercise Date) at the facsimile number set out in the form of Voluntary Exercise Notice attached as Annex V to these Final Terms. The Holder must deliver the completed Voluntary Exercise Notice to its intermediary who will be in charge of transmitting such notice it by facsimile to the Calculation Agent.
If the Voluntary Exercise Notice is delivered after 10.00 a.m. on any Exercise Business Day during the Exercise Period, such Voluntary Exercise Notice will be deemed to have been delivered on the next Exercise Business Day, which Exercise Business Day shall be deemed to be the Effective Exercise Date.
The Warrants specified in the Voluntary Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be validly exercised on the Effective Exercise Date only if, prior to 17.00 p.m. Milan Time of that Effective Exercise Date:
(a) the Warrants specified in the Voluntary Exercise Notice have been credited to the account of 2S Banca, being account nr. 63307 held with Monte Titoli. For this purpose, the Holder must instruct his/her intermediary who will be in charge of requesting the transfer of the Warrants specified accordingly; or
(b) the intermediary has transmitted to the Calculation Agent a confirmation from Monte Titoli declaring that the Warrants specified in the Voluntary Exercise Notice have been transferred to the account of 2S Banca, being account nr. 63307 held with Monte Titoli.
In the event that a Holder does not perform its obligations and so deliver, where applicable, a duly completed Voluntary Exercise Notice in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Voluntary Exercise Notice shall be null and void and the Warrants shall be deemed to be automatically exercised at the Maturity Date (unless previously validly exercised).
If such Voluntary Exercise Notice is subsequently corrected to the satisfaction of the Calculation Agent, it shall be deemed to be a new Voluntary Exercise Notice submitted at the same time such corrected notice is delivered to the Calculation Agent.
Subject as set out above, delivery of a Voluntary Exercise Notice shall constitute an irrevocable election by the relevant Holder to exercise the Warrants specified.

2.2 Product information
The NASDAQ-100 Index includes 100 of the largest domestic and international non-financial securities listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market based on market capitalization. The Index reflects companies across major industry groups including computer hardware and software, telecommunications, retail/wholesale trade and biotechnology. It does not contain securities of financial companies including investment companies.
Launched in January 1985, the NASDAQ-100 Index represents the largest non-financial domestic and international securities listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market based on market capitalization. The NASDAQ-100 Index is calculated under a modified capitalization-weighted methodology. The methodology is expected to retain in general the economic attributes of capitalization-weighting while providing enhanced diversification. To accomplish this, NASDAQ will review the composition of the NASDAQ-100 Index on a quarterly basis and adjust the weightings of Index components using a proprietary algorithm, if certain pre-established weight distribution requirements are not met.

3.2 Product Information
The Nikkei Stock Average is Japan's most widely watched index of stock market activity and has been calculated continuously since September 7, 1950.
The current calculation method, called the Dow Xxxxx method, has been used since 1950. The 225 components of the Nikkei Stock Average are among the most actively traded issues on the first section of the TSE. The index reflects the ex-rights-adjusted average stock price.
Since the Nikkei Stock Average is expected to represent the performance of stocks on the first section -
- and by extension the market in general - the mix of components has been rebalanced from time to time to assure that all issues in the index are both highly liquid and representative of Japan's industrial structure.

Rimborso: Le Condizioni definitive applicabili specificheranno le condizioni di rimborso e di liquidazione dei Titoli.
Status dei Titoli: I Titoli costituiranno obbligazioni dirette, non subordinate e non
garantite dagli Emittenti.
Regime fiscale: Tutti i pagamenti effettuati dagli Emittenti saranno soggetti a
eventuali imposte, dazi, trattenute o altri oneri che potrebbe essere loro richiesto di effettuare, corrispondere, trattenere o dedurre. Si veda anche "Fattori di Rischio – Direttiva UE sul Risparmio" e "Regime fiscale" di seguito.

Titoli. Si veda a tal proposito la sezione "Offerta e Vendita".
Legge che governa i Xxxxxx: I Titoli sono governati dalla Legge italiana e dalla Legge inglese
come specificato nelle Condizioni definitive applicabili.
Fattori di Xxxxxxx: Esistono alcuni fattori che potrebbero incidere sulla capacità da parte
dell’Emittente di adempiere ai propri obblighi in relazione ai Xxxxxx
oggetto del programma.
Il 12 giugno 2005, UniCredito e HVB (come qui di seguito definito) hanno deciso di concludere un accordo di fusione nel quale si delineavano i termini di tale operazione che interessava HVB e il Gruppo. Qualora venisse attuata, tale fusione potrebbe avere ripercussioni negative sulle attività del Gruppo ed i relativi risultati. Tali ripercussioni negative potrebbero dipendere da: (i) la capacità di UniCredito di prevedere le proprie esigenze di capitale nonché di
soddisfare i propri obblighi di capitale e stimare i coefficienti Tier I e di capitale totale che dipendono da una serie di supposizioni (tra le quali il numero e il collocamento delle azioni proposte sul mercato in base alle offerte, le negoziazioni e le condizioni di mercato relative alle transazioni di raccolta dei capitali previste da UniCredito allo scopo di finanziare le offerte) che possono non rivelarsi corrette e le divergenze rispetto a tali supposizioni potrebbero portare a risultati di capitale che si discostano sensibilmente dalle attese di UniCredito; e da (ii) il fatto che la proposta acquisizione di HVB richiede l’integrazione e l’unione di management, strategie, procedure, prodotti e servizi, basi clienti e reti di distribuzione diversi allo scopo di delineare una struttura aziendale e di attività del gruppo di recente ampliamento e non si può avere la garanzia che il Gruppo sia in grado di assimilare la struttura, il management e la base clienti di HVB.
Inoltre, durante il 2004 e i primi sei mesi del 2005, UniCredito ha concluso o negoziato numerosi accordi di acquisizione, ivi comprese importanti acquisizioni in Italia e nei paesi dell’Europa allargata e l’integrazione di tali acquisizioni presenta ed implica per il futuro sfide di integrazione, in particolare laddove i sistemi contabili e di informazione sulla gestione differiscono sensibilmente da quelli utilizzati altrove nel Gruppo. Sono significativi anche i rischi connessi alla conduzione di attività nell’Europa allargata: la natura di tali rischi differisce notevolmente da un paese all’altro, ma in generale si tratta di condizioni economiche, di scambio e di mercati borsistici egualmente caratterizzati da volatilità così come, in molti casi, di infrastrutture politiche, finanziarie e giuridiche meno sviluppate.
I risultati del Gruppo sono influenzati dalle condizioni economiche, finanziarie e commerciali generali. Durante i periodi di recessione, può verificarsi una riduzione della richiesta di prodotti di finanziamento e un maggior numero di clienti del Gruppo potrebbe non riuscire ad adempiere ai propri impegni correlati al finanziamento o ad obblighi di altra natura. Gli aumenti dei tassi di interesse potrebbero altresì influenzare la richiesta di mutui e di altri prodotti di finanziamento. Anche le fluttuazioni dei tassi di interesse in Europa e su altri mercati in cui il Gruppo opera ne influenza la performance.
Ai sensi del Regolamento dell’Unione Europea CE 1606/2002, tutte le società quotate in borsa all’interno dell’Unione Europea, compresa UniCredito, sono tenute a redigere i propri bilanci in conformità ai principi IFRS (come di seguito definito), a partire dall’esercizio che si conclude il 31 dicembre 2005. UniCredito non può escludere l’eventualità che il passaggio agli IFRS possa avere un impatto notevole su determinate voci di bilancio e rendere estremamente difficile procedere ad un confronto con il bilancio attuale.
I Titoli.
I Portatori dei Titoli emessi nell’ambito del Programma sono esposti a numerosi rischi connessi ai Titoli, per esempio ai rischi legati alla struttura di un particolare Titolo, al tasso di interesse, di cambio, al valore tempo e ai rischi politici così come ai rischi di mercato legati all’investimento in una determinata base di riferimento.
Per una descrizione più dettagliata dei fattori di rischio, si suggerisce
di consultare le pagine 13 - 22 del presente Prospetto.
Rappresentazione dei Portatori di Xxxxxx:
Sono previste delle modalità con cui i Portatori di Xxxxxx possano essere rappresentati in conformità alla Condizione 9(D).

3. Definitions
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, the following general definitions will apply:
"Actual Exercise Date" means the Exercise Date (in the case of European Style Warrants) or, subject to Condition 6(A)(ii), the date during the Exercise Period on which the Warrant is actually or is deemed exercised or, if Automatic Exercise is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, is automatically exercised (in the case of American Style Warrants, as more fully set out in Condition 4(A)(i));
"Affiliate" means in relation to any entity (the First Entity), any entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the First Entity, any entity that controls, directly or indirectly, the First Entity or any entity directly or indirectly under common control with the First Entity. For these purposes "control" means ownership of a majority of the voting power of an entity;
"Averaging Date" means, in respect of an Actual Exercise Date, each date specified as an Averaging Date in the applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following Scheduled Trading Day unless, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent any such day is a Disrupted Day. If any such day is a Disrupted Day, then:
(a) if "Omission" is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then such date will be deemed not to be an Averaging Date for the purposes of determining the relevant Settlement Price provided that, if through the operation of this provision no Averaging Date would occur in respect of such Actual Exercise Date, then the provisions of the definition of Valuation Date will apply for purposes of determining the relevant level, price or amount on the final Averaging Date with respect to that Actual Exercise Date as if such Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day; or
(b) if "Postponement" is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then the provisions of the definition of Valuation Date will apply for the purposes of determining the relevant level, price or amount on that Averaging Date as if such Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day irrespective of whether, pursuant to such determination, that deferred Averaging Date would fall on a day that already is or is deemed to be an Averaging Date; or
(c) if "Modified Postponement" is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms then:
(i) where the Warrants are Index Warrants relating to a single Index or Share Warrants relating to a single Share, the Averaging Date shall be the first succeeding Valid Date (as defined below). If the first succeeding Valid Date has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the eighth Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the original date that, but for the occurrence of another Averaging Date or Disrupted Day, would have been the final Averaging Date in respect of such Actual Exercise Date, then (A) that eighth Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether that eighth Scheduled Trading Day is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub- paragraph (a)(ii) of the definition of Valuation Date below;
(ii) where the Warrants are Index Warrants relating to a Basket of Indices or Share Warrants relating to a Basket of Shares, the Averaging Date for each Index
or Share not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the originally designated Averaging Date (the Scheduled Averaging Date) and the Averaging Date for an Index or Share affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date (as defined below) in relation to such
Index or Share. If the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Index or Share has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the eighth Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the original date that, but for the occurrence of
another Averaging Date or Disrupted Day, would have been the final Averaging Date in respect of such Actual Exercise Date, then (A) that eighth Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether that eighth Scheduled Trading Day is already an Averaging Date) in respect of such Index or Share, and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level,
price or amount for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (b)(ii)
of the definition of Valuation Date below; and
