10.1 Following notice of the occurrence of a Significant Event pursuant to article 17.1. (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.

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. Without prejudice to the above, the Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent Bank, which accepts, pursuant to and for the purposes of Article 1723 (“Revocability of mandate”) of the Italian Civil Code, as its agent with powers of representation and special attorney having the power and authority to execute every act or other formality necessary to transfer or otherwise assign to third parties, in the name and on behalf of the Grantor, the Subject of the Pledge, or part thereof, in the event of enforcement of the Pledge.
