Representative appointed by the company

In accordance with applicable regulations (art. 135-undecies, Consolidated Law on Finance), Intesa Sanpaolo has assigned Servizio Titoli S.p.A. as its "Appointed Representative", to whom shareholders can submit proxies at no cost by the end of the second open-market day preceding the date scheduled for the Meeting on first call (and therefore by close of business on 5 May 2011).
