1.0 General principles<br />
This document illustrates the fee schedule applied by <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> for the services provided to<br />
entities participating in such services, in accordance with the contractual framework in force<br />
and in particular with Art. 10 of the General Conditions Part I.<br />
As stated by Art. 7 of the General Conditions Part I, any modification of the fee schedules<br />
indicated in this document will be notified by <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> through the publication of such<br />
modifications on its own website. Moreover this publication will be notified to participants by<br />
the means of an email communication sent to the address provided by the client Itself.<br />
<strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> fee structure is compliant with principles of unbundling and separate accounting.<br />
The fee structure has been structured to assist clients in easily reconciling their invoices. A<br />
specific reference code identifies each fee and helps customers to quickly and easily check<br />
the accuracy of the amounts debited.<br />
All invoicing items will be subject to VAT as established by law.<br />
Unless otherwise specified, fees are calculated and invoiced monthly, based on volumes<br />
recorded during the relevant month, and debited with a value date of the last day of the month<br />
following invoice issue.<br />
If a monthly (or quarterly or annual) fee is applied to a service, in case participation or<br />
withdrawal occurs during the month (or during the quarter or the year), the former fee<br />
(participation event) or the latter (withdrawal event) are entirely chargeable, regardless of the<br />
date of activation or withdrawal.<br />
Where monthly fees are based on a volume tier, each client may choose to change its tier by<br />
making a request before 15 December; if 15 December is not a business day, the deadline is<br />
carried over to the next business day.<br />
The tier change will commence in January of the following; no change of tier is admitted during<br />
the year.<br />
The same fee structure is also applied to market infrastructures (such as CCPs, CSDs,<br />
Central Banks) when they participate in <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> services (in standard mode). Should<br />
participation of these entities require customized solutions and specific terms of<br />
interoperability, a specific pricing proposal will be defined, in compliance with Paragraph 4 of<br />
the Code of Conduct.<br />
A fee calculator simulator is available on our website www.montetitoli.it, enabling clients to<br />
determine their fees.<br />

2.0 Custody<br />
2.1 Securities account<br />
Intermediaries participating in the custody service are required to separate their own proprietary<br />
account from the third party account.<br />
Each intermediary may open additional third party accounts (so called settlement accounts), to<br />
segregate dedicated activities of their clients.<br />

2.2 Custody – safekeeping fees<br />
<strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> applies a structure of variable safekeeping fees, dependent on the type of<br />
safekeeping service:<br />
- as Issuer CSD, depending on the category of financial instruments 1 and on the average<br />
balance<br />
- as Investor CSD by means of links with National Securities Depositaries (NCSDs),<br />
- as Investor CSD by means of links with International Depositaries, namely Euroclear Bank<br />
and Clearstream Banking Luxembourg (ICSDs) based on the Countries group and the<br />
category of financial instruments and on the average balance.<br />
Safekeeping fees are calculated by applying rates expressed in basis points on annual basis,<br />
to the monthly average balance of the financial instruments booked in all the accounts opened<br />
by the intermediary in the custody system (property, third party and settlement accounts).<br />
Average monthly balance is calculated as an average of the daily balances during the month<br />
of reference, by applying the following rules:<br />
- separately for each category, for financial instruments where <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> is the Issuer<br />
CSD,<br />
- separately for each category, for financial instruments where <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> is the Investor<br />
CSD and the Issuer CSD is a specific NCSD (Euroclear UK & Ireland, Clearstream<br />
Banking Frankfurt and SIX SIS)<br />
- with no separation of category, for financial instruments where <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> is the Investor<br />
CSD and another National Securities Depositary (NCSD) is the Issuer CSD<br />
- Separately by Countries group and category, for financial instruments where <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong><br />
is the Investor CSD and the International Depositary (ICSD) is the Issuer CSD.<br />
Financial instruments are evaluated according to the following criteria:<br />
- Shares: market price or, if not applicable, nominal value. Shares with no nominal value<br />
(non par value), are conventionally valued at € 1.00<br />
- Bonds, Government Bonds and similar: nominal value<br />
- Warrants, covered warrants, investment fund units and similar: market price or, if not<br />
applicable, nominal value with the exception of warrants and covered warrants waiting for<br />
listing which are conventionally evaluated at € 0.30.<br />
For financial instruments issued in a currency different from Euro, the average balance<br />
expressed in Euro is calculated by applying the official daily exchange rate.<br />
The list of financial instruments for which <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong> is the Investor CSD, by means of link<br />
with NCSDs and ICSDs is available on the MT-X platform and is updated on a monthly basis.<br />
1<br />
Each category includes one or more financial instruments type, as detailed in the following charts.<br />

8.0 Service of Collateral Management –<br />
X-COM<br />
The service provides the application of fees calculated on the amount of securities transferred<br />
as collateral charged to the collateral giver.<br />
In addition for any transfer of security (ISIN) connected with the settlement of collateral<br />
transactions managed by the service (collateral allocation, collateral return, collateral<br />
substitution, etc.) a fee for unmatched free of payment delivery is applied as indicated at the<br />
section Domestic Settlement. If a participant makes use of a security settlement agent, this fee<br />
is applied to the securities settlement agent.<br />
8.1 Collateralized securities<br />
The fees on collateralized securities are applied to the collateral giver and include the<br />
matching function, the settlement and exposure information and the MT-X web based<br />
functionalities.<br />
The fees are calculated by applying rates expressed in basis points on annual basis, to the<br />
monthly average balance of the securities transferred as collateral in relation to collateral<br />
operations.<br />
Average monthly balance is calculated as an average of the daily balances during the month<br />
of reference.<br />
Collateralized securities (bonds and similar securities) are evaluated at the nominal value.<br />
For financial instruments issued in a currency different from Euro, the average balance<br />
expressed in Euro is calculated by applying the official daily exchange rate.<br />

are paid by the intermediaries and are directly charged by SIA-SSB and SWIFT. Should be<br />
transmission costs directly debited by SIA-SSB or SWIFT to <strong>Monte</strong> <strong>Titoli</strong>, they will be recovered<br />
directly from its participants. Further information are available in the sections 4.1, 5.3.1, 5.3.2,<br />
