10.1 Following notice of the occurrence of a Significant Event pursuant to article17.1. (Acceleration, Termination, Withdrawal) of the Loan Agreement and provided that said Significant Event has not been remedied within the grace period that may have been granted by the Secured Creditor, and provided that the Guaranteed Obligations that have become liquid and collectible have not been met, the Agent Bank will be entitled to serve formal notice, through a bailiff, on the Grantor and the defaulting Beneficiary, demanding that they fulfil the Guaranteed Obligations and advising that failure to perform within 5 (five) days of said notice will lead to sale of the Subject of the Pledge. The notice sent by the Agent Bank to the Grantor and to the Beneficiary, pursuant to this Article 10.1 will, with regard to said parties, have the effect of the formal notice referred to in sub-sections 1 and 2 of Article 2797 (“Forms of the sale”) of the Italian Civil Code, without the need for further formal notice. If the notified parties do not make the payment within the aforesaid time limit, the Agent Bank will proceed with the sale of the Subject of the Pledge.

10.2 By virtue of the provisions of the last sub-section of Article 2797 (“Forms of the sale”) of the Italian Civil Code, and without prejudice to the rights of the Secured Creditor pursuant to Article 2798 (“Assignment of the item in payment”) of the Italian Civil Code, after 5 (five) days have passed from receipt of the formal notice referred to in Article10.1 above and provided that in the meantime the Guaranteed Obligations have not been met, the Subject of the Pledge may be sold, partially or fully or in several phases, with or without auction, in Italy and abroad, through the Agent Bank’s trading structure or through a stock brokerage company or a bailiff authorised for the purpose or any other person appointed by the competent judicial authorities or through any other procedure that the Agent Bank may deem appropriate, without prejudice to mandatory provisions of the law. The Agent Bank must provide the Grantor with notice of the venue and the time at which the sale will take place with at least 5 (five) Working Days’ notice. The Agent Bank will not be obliged to accept any purchase offer that it reasonably believes not to be advantageous. It is however understood that the sale must occur at the best conditions that the Agent Bank is able to achieve, acting in good faith and using the

diligence of leading market operators, taking into account the situation of the reference market. The Grantor must in any case be promptly informed of the conditions of sale performed in this way.

(C) thirdly, within the limits of the surplus, in favour of the Grantor and of the other parties authorised for collection, or according to the decisions of the competent judicial authority.
