5. Integration of the Board of Directors Directors' Report

2019 Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting

Integration of the Board of Directors

Dear Shareholders,

You have been called to this UniCredit S.p.A. (the "Company") Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting in order to decide, inter alia, on the integration of the Board of Directors following the termination of the office of the non-executive and independent Director Andrea Sironi, who resigned, as known, in occasion of the approval by the UniCredit S.p.A. Board of Directors - in its meeting held on February 6, 2019 - of the 2018 draft financial statements.

Considering that during the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting held on April 12th, 2018 it's been resolved that the number of Directors should be 15 (according to the Board's suggestion on its own quantitative composition), the Board of Directors, in its meeting held on February 6th, 2019, has provided to co-opt, effectively from February 7th, 2019, Ms. Elena Carletti as Director of your Company, pursuant to Article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code, with resolution approved by the Board of Statutory Auditors.

The selection of said Director has been carried out following the articulated process approved by the Board on the July 6th, 2017 (available on the UniCredit website), with the active involvement of the Corporate Governance, Nomination and Sustainability Committee and the support of the external consulting firm Spencer Stuart. The choice of Ms. Elena Carletti, on proposal of the Corporate Governance, Nomination and Sustainability Committee, has been made in compliance with the necessary requirements and in accordance with the criteria defined by the Board in the document "Qualitative and quantitative composition of UniCredit S.p.A. Board of Directors", approved on February 7th, 2018 (so-called, Quali-quantitative Profile).

Taken into account that, according to Article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code, the Directors nominated by the Board in place of those having left during the financial year remain in office "until the next Shareholders' Meeting", it's now necessary to submit to the Shareholders' Meeting the proposal to integrate the Board by appointing a Director.

To this regard, the Board of Directors, on February 6th, 2019, further to a favourable opinion of the Corporate Governance, Nomination and Sustainability Committee, has decided to propose to the Shareholders' Meeting to integrate the Board appointing the co-opted Director, Ms. Elena Carletti , who communicated her availability to the candidacy.

Finally, we remind you that the office of the Director appointed by you will expire on the date of the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2020 financial statements along with the currently offices of the other members of the Board of Directors, appointed for the 2018-2020 financial years by the already said Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of the April 12th 2018.

* * *

According to the Article of Association, the resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting shall be taken by relative majority, without applying the vote by list system, ensuring abidance to the criteria of independence and balance between genders established by the provisions, also of a regulatory nature, in being.

The document "Qualitative and quantitative composition of UniCredit S.p.A. Board of Directors" is available on the Company's website in order to allow the Shareholders to present possible candidatures to integrate the Board, taking into account the results of the previous identification carried out by the Board itself on its own qualitative and quantitative composition deemed to be optimal to perform efficiently its duties and responsibilities, explaining any difference to the analyses conducted by the Board1 .

* * *

1 On the Company's web-site there is published the list of the minimum documentation to be provided in connection with possible candidacies together with drafts of the declarations to be signed.

Resolutions submitted to the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting

Dear Shareholders,

if you agree with the contents and argumentations showed in the Directors' Report, given the provisions of the Articles of Association in regard to the composition and appointment of the Board of Directors, as well as the indications contained in the document "Qualitative and quantitative composition of UniCredit S.p.A. Board of Directors", we invite you to take the following resolution:

to integrate the Board of Directors by appointing the Director Ms. Elena Carletti, already co-opted by the Board itself on February 6th 2019, who will hold the office until the expiration of the current Board of Directors and, therefore, until the next Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2020 financial statements.
