SCHEDULE 13D   PAGE 5 OF 6 PAGES
 
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 2015 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) by the Reporting Persons relating to the ordinary shares (the “Shares”), no nominal value, of Telecom Italia S.p.A., a company formed under the laws of the Republic of Italy (the “Issuer”).  Information reported in the Original Schedule 13D remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended, supplemented, restated or superseded by information contained in this Amendment.  Each capitalized term used herein but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Original Schedule 13D.

The second paragraph of Item 3 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

The premiums paid to date under the Share-Settled Option Agreements together with premiums required to be paid in accordance with the terms of the Share-Settled Option Agreements, is €200,752,416.  In addition, €47,195,320 of premiums have been paid under the Cash-Settled Option Agreements.  The aggregate premium payments made or required to be made under the Share-Settled Option Agreements and the Cash-Settled Option Agreements is €247,947,736.  Rock Investment may be required to make additional payments to Credit Suisse International in accordance with the terms of the amendment dated April 28, 2016 to the Confirmation of an Option Transaction between Credit Suisse International and Rock Investment (attached hereto as Exhibit 99.13).  The source of all such funds is Mr. Niel’s cash on hand.

Sub-paragraph (i) under the heading “Share-Settled Option Agreements” of Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 
(i)
on July 14, 2015, Rock Investment entered into a European-style call option transaction, which was amended on August 6, 2015, August 18, 2015 and April 28, 2016.  As amended, this option transaction references 660,000,000 Shares, with a final expiration date of:

   
a.
June 16, 2016 and an exercise price of €1.2206 per Share with respect to 0 of the referenced Shares; and
       
   
b.
September 1, 2017 and an exercise price of €1.08 per Share with respect to 660,000,000 of the referenced Shares (the “2017 Referenced Shares”),

   
and requires Rock Investment to make one or more cash payments, calculated in each case with respect to a portion of the total number of 2017 Referenced Shares, to Credit Suisse International if the volume-weighted average price of the Shares on certain specified valuation dates exceeds a specified price per Share (attached as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.13 to this Statement on Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein);

 
ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS
