4. Interest rate

The interest percentage rate is set for each QUARTER at ONE QUARTER of the sum of the following addenda:

I. -a fixed nominal portion equal to 1.80 percentage points called spread;

II. -a variable portion equal to the three-month interest rate (base 360) – called EURIBOR and applied to unsecured interbank loans in Euro, calculated daily as the simple average of the prices recorded on a sample of banks with high creditworthiness, selected periodically by the European Banking Federation (EBF), recorded by the EBF on the penultimate bank business day of the month preceding the starting date of each instalment (currently equal to -0.324 % per annum) . The rate above will be published on the “EURIBOR01” page of the Reuters telematic circuit (or in the future any page or service that may replace it) and normally published in the daily newspaper “Il Sole 24 ORE” the following day. If, for any reason, the European Banking Federation does not record this rate, it shall be determined based on the arithmetic mean, truncated to three decimal places, of the letter prices (with base 360) for three-month interbank loans in Euro, recorded on the same day indicated above by at least two of the following Banks: “Unicredit “ in Rome, “Deutsche Bank” in Frankfurt, “Societè Generale” in Paris, “Banco Bilbao Vizcaja Argentaria SA (BBVA)” in Madrid and “Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A.” in Turin. It remains understood that a bank business day is a day when the TARGET (Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross-Settlement Express Transfer) settlement system is open.

The rate of the loan is currently equal to 1.476 % (one point four seven six) nominal annual.

The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) of this loan, calculated today, is 1.93 % per annum.

If the algebraic sum of the Euribor parameter value and the spread determines a negative result, the rate is still fixed at zero since the borrower is in any event required to return the principal disbursed.

The interest referred to in this article shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed and with a fixed divider of 36,000 on an annual basis.

5. Late-payment interests

Any amount due at any level under this contract but not paid shall, from the due date and without the need for a formal notice of default, give rise to interest on arrears to be paid by the Borrower and in favour of the Bank. Periodic capitalisation of this interest is not permitted.

Late-payment interest will be calculated at the annual nominal rate equalling the contract rate under Art. 4 above, currently equalling 1.476 (one point four seven six) annual increase of 2.00 percentage points.

Late-payment interest shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed and with a fixed divider of 36,500 on an annual basis.

6. Early repayment

Early repayment of the loan is permitted, in whole or in part, under the following conditions:

a) that the Borrower fulfils all of its contractual obligations at the time of early termination;

b) that the early repayment does not take place at the same time as the due date of an instalment. In instances of only partial early repayment, the related amount will be proportionally reduced from the instalments becoming payable, notwithstanding the original duration of the Loan.
