(Page 4) This Amendment No. 20 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D dated August 9, 2001, as amended (as previously amended, the "Statement on Schedule 13D") filed by Edizione Holding S.p.A., a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Italy ("Edizione Holding"), Edizione Finance International S.A., a company incorporated in the Duchy of Luxembourg ("Edizione Finance"), and Ragione S.a.p.a. di Gilberto Benetton e C., a partnership organized under the laws of the Republic of Italy ("Ragione") (Edizione Holding, Edizione Finance and Ragione, are collectively referred to herein as the "Edizione Reporting Persons") with respect to the ordinary shares, euro 0.55 par value per share, of Telecom Italia S.p.A., a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Italy. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Statement on Schedule 13D. This Amendment is being filed by each of the Edizione Reporting Persons. Pirelli, the Purchaser, Edizione Holding, UCI, BCI, and, as discussed in Items 4 and 6 of Amendment No. 10 to the Statement on Schedule 13D, Hopa are members of a group with respect to the Telecom Italia Shares. The Edizione Reporting Persons are making a separate filing on Schedule 13D in accordance with Rule 13d-1(k)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are solely responsible for the information contained in this filing, except that information contained in the Statement on Schedule 13D concerning any director or officer of the Purchaser nominated by Pirelli, UCI, BCI or Hopa has been provided by the nominating person or by such nominee director or officer. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds and Other Consideration Reference is made to Item 4 of Amendment No. 19 to the Statement on Schedule 13D. On December 18, 2003, Olimpia purchased 294,750,000 Telecom Italia Shares from Mediobanca at a price per share of euro 2.37 pursuant to the agreement entered into by Olimpia and Mediobanca on November 5, 2003. Olimpia obtained the purchase price from capital contributed by its shareholders, as reported in Item 4 of Amendment No. 19 to the Statement on Schedule 13D. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer After giving effect to the acquisition of the 294,750,000 Telecom Italia Shares referred to in Item 3, Olimpia holds 1,751,765,823 Telecom Italia Shares, representing approximately 17.01% of the total number of outstanding Telecom Italia Shares. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer Reference is made to the New Partners Agreement (as that term is defined in Item 3 of Amendment No. 10 to the Statement on Schedule 13D). On December 16, 2003, Pirelli, UCI and Banca Intesa entered into an agreement to amend the New Partners Agreement (the "New Partners Agreement Amendment"). Pursuant to the New Partners Agreement Amendment, each of UCI and Banca Intesa agrees to fully subscribe for its proportional share of Olimpia Shares in connection with the capital increase described in Item 4 of Amendment No. 19 to the Statement on Schedule 13D (such shares, the "New (Page 5) Shares"). In addition, the New Partners Agreement Amendment modifies in certain respects the manner in which the purchase price to be paid by Pirelli for the New Shares is to be determined in the event that any such shares are transferred to Pirelli pursuant to the New Partners Agreement. A copy of the New Partners Agreement Amendment is filed as Exhibit 44 and a copy of a joint press release issued by Pirelli, UCI and Banca Intesa concerning the New Partners Agreement Amendment is filed as Exhibit 45.
