		(c)	in the event of any Relevant Circumstances falling within sub-paragraph (iii) of paragraph (b)
of Clause 6.6 (Unavailability of Screen Rate) (the “Availability-Related
Relevant Circumstances”) occurring before the Loan is made and notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 6.8 (Suspension

		6.18	Replacement rate

the consent of the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) and the Obligors.


 


		(b)	If any Lender fails to respond to a request for an amendment to waiver described in paragraph (a)
above, within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such longer period in relation to any request
which the Borrower and the Facility Agent may agree) of that request being made:



 


		(i)	its Commitment shall not be included for the purpose of
calculating the Total Commitments under the relevant Loan when ascertaining whether any relevant percentage of Total Commitments

		8	SACE Premium and Italian Authorities



 


		8.1	SACE Premium



 


The estimated SACE Premium for
an amount equal to [*] (being [*] per cent. ([*]%) of the Maximum Loan Amount), or any other amount
communicated by SACE subject to the approval of all Lenders and the Borrower, is due and payable in two instalments as follows:


 






    	 	46	 



     


    

 


		(a)	the first instalment of the SACE Premium being an amount of [*] per cent. ([*]%) of the
SACE Premium (the “First Instalment”) shall
be paid by the Borrower to SACE (provided that the Borrower and the Lenders have been notified by the SACE Agent that the SACE
Insurance Policy has been issued) on the earlier of (i) the date falling 30 days after the issuance of the SACE Insurance Policy
and (ii) the date falling 6 months after the date of SACE’s board approval or any other later date as communicated by SACE;
and



 


		(b)	the second instalment of the SACE Premium being an amount of [*]
per cent. ([*]%) of the SACE Premium (the “Second Instalment”)
and shall be payable on or prior to the Drawdown Date. For the sake of clarity, no set-off with the First Instalment shall be permitted.



 


		8.2	Reimbursement by the Borrower of the SACE Premium



 


The Borrower irrevocably agrees
to pay the First Instalment, and to instruct the Lenders to pay the Second Instalment on behalf of the Borrower as follows:


 


		(a)	the Borrower has requested and the Lenders have agreed to reimburse the payment of one hundred
per cent. (100%) of the First Instalment to the Borrower on the Drawdown Date, it being agreed that such First Instalment shall
be paid to SACE by the Borrower in accordance with paragraph (a) of Clause 8.1 (SACE Premium) and upon notification by the
Facility Agent to the Borrower (i) of the issuance of the SACE Insurance Policy documentation in the form required by paragraph
(g) of Clause 3.4 (No later than ninety (90) days before the Intended Delivery Date), and (ii) of the amount of the First
Instalment; and



 


		(b)	the Borrower has requested and the Lenders have agreed to finance the payment of one hundred per
cent. (100%) of the Second Instalment on the Drawdown Date in accordance with paragraph (c) of Clause 2.1 (Amount of facility)
of this Agreement.



 


Consequently, the Borrower hereby
irrevocably instructs the Facility Agent on behalf of the Lenders to pay the Second Instalment to SACE on the Drawdown Date in
accordance with paragraph (c) of Clause 2.1 (Amount of facility) of this Agreement and to reimburse the Borrower by
the Borrower drawing under the Loan the amount of the First Instalment in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 2.1 (Amount
of facility) of this Agreement.


 


The First Instalment and Second
Instalment each financed by the Loan will be repayable in any event by the Borrower to the Lenders in the manner specified in Clause
5 (Repayment) and under any and all circumstances including but without limitation
in the event of prepayment or acceleration of the Loan.


 


		8.3	Italian Authorities



 


		(a)	The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Facility Agent, the SACE Agent and the Lenders are
entitled to provide the Italian Authorities with any information they may have relative to the Loan and the business of the Group,
to allow the Italian Authorities to inspect all their records relating to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and
to furnish them with copies thereof. Any such information relative to the Loan may also be given by any Italian Authorities to
international institutions charged with collecting statistical data.



 


		(b)	The Borrower acknowledges that, in the making of any decision or determination or the exercise
of any discretion or the taking or refraining to take any action under this Agreement or any of the other Finance Documents, the
Facility Agent, the SACE Agent and the Lenders shall be deemed to have acted reasonably if they have acted on the instructions
of either of the Italian Authorities.



 






    	 	47	 



     


    

 


		(c)	Each Party further undertakes not to act in a manner which is inconsistent with the terms of the
SACE Insurance Policy and the Interest Make-up Agreement.



 


		8.4	Refund



 


		(a)	The Borrower shall, at the latest on the date falling sixty (60) days before the Intended Delivery
Date, provide a notice in writing to the SACE Agent (who will promptly forward it to other Lenders and SACE), signed by an authorised
signatory of the Borrower, indicating the amount of the Loan to be drawn on the Delivery Date less (i) any amount cancelled based
on the Conversion Rate and (ii) the Refund (as defined below) to be refunded in accordance with paragraph (b), such amount of the
Refund to be confirmed by SACE at least six (6) Business Days prior to the Delivery Date. The Borrower hereby agrees and shall
confirm in such notice that the remaining Commitments shall be deemed to be cancelled. The Borrower acknowledges, for the avoidance
of doubt, that the shortfall to be paid to the Builder at the Delivery Date shall be funded and paid directly by the Borrower to
the Builder.



 


		(b)	If the Loan is less than the Maximum Loan Amount, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred
and is then continuing and no loss has occurred under the SACE Insurance Policy, the Borrower shall be entitled to a refund of
the Second Instalment of the SACE Premium in an amount calculated by SACE on the undrawn amount (the “Refund”).
For the avoidance of doubt, the First Instalment of the SACE Premium is non-refundable, irrespective of whether any disbursements
have been made under this Agreement and irrespective of whether the SACE Insurance Policy has been terminated.



 


		(c)	Any refund of the Second Instalment of the SACE Premium, whether in whole or in part, must be expressly
requested by the SACE Agent to SACE in writing following receipt by the SACE Agent of the Borrower’s notice referred to in
paragraph (a) above.



 


		(d)	To the extent the Borrower is entitled to the Refund, SACE shall transfer the Refund as soon as
practicably possible to the SACE Agent who shall as soon as practicably possible following receipt thereof transfer such amount
to the Borrower. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that SACE shall not be liable to pay interest to the Borrower on the amount of
the Refund.



 


		(e)	Under the terms of the SACE Insurance Policy, the Parties acknowledge that SACE will withhold an
amount of [*] per cent. ([*]%) from the amount of the SACE Premium to be refunded. Such withholding, charged as a lump sum to cover
administration and management costs for the SACE Insurance Policy, may not, in any event, amount to less than the equivalent of
[*] Euros (€[*]) or more than the equivalent of [*] Euros (€[*]), calculated by SACE at the European Central Bank EUR/USD
exchange rate as at the date of the refund request.



 


		(f)	Except as set out in paragraphs (a) to (c) above, no part of the SACE Premium is refundable to
any Obligor.



 


		(g)	In no event shall the SACE Agent be liable for any refund of the SACE Premium to be made by SACE
or for the calculation of any Refund and/or withholding thereof.

		10.1	Definitions



 


		(a)	In this Agreement:



 


“Protected
Party” means a Secured Party which is or will be subject to any liability, or required to make any payment, for

under a Finance Document.


 


“Tax

than a FATCA Deduction.


 


“Tax
Payment” means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Secured Party under Clause 10.2 (Tax

		(b)	Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 10 (Taxes, Increased Costs, Costs and related
Charges) reference to “determines” or “determined”
means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.



 


		10.2	Tax gross-up



 


		(a)	Each Obligor shall make all payments to be made by it under the Finance Documents without any Tax
Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.



 


		(b)	The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that
there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall
notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives such
notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower and that Obligor.



 


		(c)	If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from
that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which
would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.



 


		(d)	A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (c) above if on the date on which the payment
falls due the Obligor making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the
Tax Deduction had that Lender (having been given notice of the documentation requested under Clause 10.7 (Lender Status)
at least 30 Business Days prior to such payment date) complied with its obligations under Clause 10.7 (Lender Status).

that Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the Secured Party entitled to
the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Secured Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any
appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

		10.3	Tax indemnity



 


		(a)	The Borrower shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected

suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document.



 


		(b)	Paragraph (a) above shall not apply:



 


		(i)	with respect to any Tax assessed on a Secured Party:



 


		(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Secured Party is incorporated or, if different,
the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Secured Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or



 


		(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender’s Facility Office is located in respect
of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,



 


if that Tax is imposed on or calculated
by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Secured Party;
or


 


		(ii)	to the extent a loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause
10.2 (Tax gross-up) or would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 10.2 (Tax gross-up) but
was not so compensated solely because an exclusion in paragraph (d) of Clause 10.2 (Tax gross-up) applied, or relates to
a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; or



 


		(iii)	with respect to the Taxes in the nature of a branch profits tax imposed by Section 884(a)

notify the Facility Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall
notify the Borrower.



 


		(d)	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 10.3 (Tax
indemnity), notify the Facility Agent.



 


		10.4	Tax Credit



 


If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment
and the relevant Creditor Party determines that:


 


		(a)	a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that
Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and



 


		(b)	that Creditor Party has obtained, retained and utilised that Tax Credit,



 






    	 	51	 



     


    

 


the Creditor Party shall pay an
amount to the Obligor which that Creditor Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as
it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor.


 


		10.5	Stamp taxes

		10.6	VAT



 


		(a)	All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Secured Party which
(in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which
is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made
by any Secured Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Secured Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority
for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Secured Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for
such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Secured Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice
to that Party).



 


		(b)	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Secured Party (the “Supplier”)
to any other Secured Party (the “Recipient”)
under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant
Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that
supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):



 


		(i)	(where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT)
the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount
of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit
or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT
chargeable on that supply; and



 


		(ii)	(where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT)
the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable
on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from
the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.



 


		(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Secured Party for any cost
or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Secured Party for the full amount of such cost or
expense, including such part of it as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Secured Party reasonably determines that it
is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.



 


		(d)	Any reference in this Clause 10.6 (VAT) to any Party being required to account to a tax
authority for VAT shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include a reference to
another member of that group being required to so account to the relevant tax authority.



 






    	 	52	 



     


    

 


		(e)	In relation to any supply made by a Secured Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably
requested by such Secured Party, that Party must promptly provide such Secured Party with details of that Party’s VAT registration
and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Secured Party’s VAT reporting requirements
in relation to such supply.



 


		10.7	Lender Status



 


		(a)	Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to
payments made under a Finance Document shall deliver to the Facility Agent and the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested
by the Facility Agent or the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Facility
Agent or the Borrower (and which it is reasonable for the Lender to complete and execute) as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Facility Agent
or the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation as prescribed by applicable law and reasonably requested by the Facility
Agent or the Borrower as will enable the Facility Agent or the Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements.



 


		(b)	Any Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, and where it is entitled to an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax, deliver to the Facility Agent and the Borrower on or prior to the
date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement or promptly thereafter (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed
by applicable law or upon the request of the Facility Agent or the Borrower), duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable, certifying that it is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding and, in the
case of a non-U.S. Lender that is eligible for an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax establishing an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax.



 


		10.8	FATCA Deduction



 


		(a)	Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required
in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such
a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.



 


		(b)	Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there
is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction) notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition,
shall notify the Borrower, the Facility Agent and the other Secured Parties.



 


		10.9	FATCA Information



 


		(a)	Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request
by another Party:



 


		(i)	confirm to that other Party whether it is:



 


		(A)	a FATCA Exempt Party; or



 


		(B)	not a FATCA Exempt Party;



 






    	 	53	 



     


    

 


		(ii)	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status
under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA; and



 


		(iii)	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status
as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with any other law, regulation,
or exchange of information regime.



 


		(b)	If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt
Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other
Party reasonably promptly.



 


		(c)	Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Creditor Party to do anything, and paragraph (a)(iii)
above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:



 


		(i)	any law or regulation;



 


		(ii)	any fiduciary duty; or



 


		(iii)	any duty of confidentiality.



 


		(d)	If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation
or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where
paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them)
as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation
or other information.



 


		(e)	Each Lender shall, within ten Business Days of (i) where the relevant Lender is a Lender at the
date of this Agreement, the date of this Agreement and (ii) where the relevant Lender is a Transferee Lender, the effective date
of a Transfer Certificate under Clause 24.4 (Effective Date of Transfer Certificate), supply to the Facility Agent:



 


		(i)	a withholding certificate on Form W-8, Form W-9 or any other relevant form; or



 


		(ii)	any withholding statement or other document, authorisation or waiver as the Facility Agent may
require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation.



 


		(f)	The Facility Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document,

the Government of the US and the Government of the Republic of Italy to improve international tax compliance and to implement FATCA,
signed in Rome in 10 January 2014.



 


		10.10	Increased Costs



 


		(a)	If after the date of this Agreement by reason of (x) any change in law or in its interpretation
or administration and/or (y) compliance with any request from or requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other
authority including but without limitation the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices whether or not
having the force of law:



 


		(i)	any of the Lenders incurs a cost as a result of its performing its obligations under this Agreement
and/or its making available its Commitment hereunder; or



 


		(ii)	there is any increase in the cost to any of the Lenders of funding or maintaining all or any of
the advances comprised in a class of advances formed by or including its Commitment advanced or to be advanced by it hereunder;
or



 


		(iii)	any of the Lenders incurs a cost as a result of its having entered into and/or its assuming or
maintaining its commitment under this Agreement; or



 


		(iv)	any of the Lenders becomes liable to make any payment on account of Tax or otherwise (other than
Tax on its overall net income) on or calculated by reference to the amount of its Commitment advanced or to be advanced hereunder
and/or any sum received or receivable by it hereunder; or



 


		(v)	any of the Lenders suffers any decrease in its rate of return as a result of any changes in the
requirements relating to capital ratios, monetary control ratios, the payment of special deposits, liquidity costs or other similar
requirements affecting that Lender,



 


then the Borrower shall on demand
pay to the Facility Agent for the account of the relevant Lender or Lenders amounts sufficient to indemnify the relevant Lender
or Lenders against, as the case may be, such cost, such increased cost (or such proportion of such increased cost as is in the
reasonable opinion of the relevant Lender or Lenders attributable to the funding or maintaining of its or their Commitment(s) hereunder)
or such liability.

		(ii)	attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party;



 


		(iii)	compensated for by Clause 10.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under

(Tax indemnity) applied); or



 






    	 	55	 



     


    

 


		(iv)	attributable to the wilful breach by the relevant Creditor Party or its Affiliates of any law of
regulation.

Costs), a reference to a “Tax Deduction” has the same meaning given to the term in Clause 10.1 (Definitions).


 


		(c)	A Lender affected by any provision of this Clause 10.10 (Increased Costs) shall promptly
inform the Facility Agent after becoming aware of the relevant change and its possible results (which notice shall be conclusive
evidence of the relevant change and its possible results) and the Facility Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter,
notify the Borrower of the change and its possible results. Without affecting the Borrower’s obligations under this Clause 10.10
(Increased Costs) and in consultation with the Facility Agent and the Italian Authorities, the affected Lender will then
take all such reasonable steps as may be open to it to mitigate the effect of the change (for example (if then possible) by changing
its Facility Office or transferring some or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another financial institution
reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, the Facility Agent and the Italian Authorities). The reasonable costs of mitigating the
effect of any such change shall be borne by the Borrower save where such costs are of an internal administrative nature and are
not incurred in dealings by any Lender with third parties.

not less than 30 days with a view to agreeing such revised terms and conditions as the Lenders may require to enable the Lenders
to maintain the entire Loan (and during such 30 day period, no Lender shall be obliged to make available to the Borrower their

Lender”) may at any time provided they have obtained the prior written consent of the Italian Authorities cause:


 


		(a)	its rights in respect of all or part of its Contribution; or



 


		(b)	its obligations in respect of all or part of its Commitment; or



 


		(c)	a combination of (a) and (b),



 


to be (in the case of its rights)
transferred to, or (in the case of its obligations) assumed by, in whole or in part any of its Affiliates or another bank or financial
institution or a trust, fund, insurance or reinsurance company or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for
the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (a “Transferee
Lender”) by delivering to the Facility Agent a completed certificate in the form set out in Schedule 4 (Form
of Transfer Certificate) with any modifications approved or required by the Facility Agent (a “Transfer
Certificate”) executed by the Transferor Lender and the Transferee Lender.


 


However any rights and obligations
of the Transferor Lender in its capacity as Facility Agent or Security Trustee will have to be dealt with separately in accordance
with the provisions of Clauses 26 (Role of the Facility Agent and the Joint Mandated Lead Arrangers) and 27 (The Security
Trustee) respectively.


 


		24.2	Conditions of assignment or transfer



 


		(a)	The consent of the Borrower is required at all times (subject
to the provisions of Clauses 24.5 (No transfer without Transfer Certificate) and 24.17 (Assignment or transfer
to SACE) for an assignment or transfer by an Transferor Lender, unless (i) there is an Event of Default or (ii) the assignment
or transfer is to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or a vehicle (including trusts or funds) whose majority shares or
notes are held by a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender.



 


		(b)	The consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) Business Days after the Transferor Lender has requested it unless
consent is expressly refused by that Borrower within that time.



 


		(c)	The assignment or transfer must be with respect to a minimum Commitment of [*] Dollars ($[*]) or,
if less, the Transferor Lender’s full Commitment.



 


		24.3	Transfer Certificate, delivery and notification



 


As soon as reasonably practicable
after a Transfer Certificate is delivered to the Facility Agent, it shall (unless it has reason to believe that the Transfer Certificate
may be defective):


 


		(a)	sign the Transfer Certificate on behalf of itself, the Borrower, any other Obligors, the Security
Trustee and each of the other Lenders;



 






    	 	98	 



     


    

 


		(b)	on behalf of the Transferee Lender, send to the Borrower and each Obligor letters or faxes notifying
them of the Transfer Certificate and attaching a copy of it; and



 


		(c)	send to the Transferee Lender copies of the letters or faxes sent under paragraph (b) above,



 


but the Facility Agent shall only
be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Transferor Lender and the Transferee Lender once it is satisfied
that itself and the Security Trustee have complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks
under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to that Transferee Lender.


 


		24.4	Effective Date of Transfer Certificate



 


A Transfer Certificate becomes
effective on the date, if any, specified in the Transfer Certificate as its effective date, provided that it is signed by the Facility
Agent under Clause 24.3 (Transfer Certificate, delivery and notification) on or before that date.


 


		24.5	No transfer without Transfer Certificate



 


Except as provided in Clause 24.16
(Security over Lenders’ rights), no assignment or transfer of any right or obligation of a Lender under any Finance
Document is binding on, or effective in relation to, the Borrower, any Obligor, the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee unless
it is effected, evidenced or perfected by a Transfer Certificate.


 


		24.6	Lender re-organisation; waiver of Transfer Certificate



 


However, if a Lender enters into
any merger, de-merger or other reorganisation as a result of which all its rights or obligations vest in another person (the “successor”),
the Facility Agent may, if it sees fit, by notice to the successor and the Borrower and the Security Trustee waive the need for
the execution and delivery of a Transfer Certificate; and, upon service of the Facility Agent’s notice, the successor shall
become a Lender with the same Commitment and Contribution as were held by the predecessor Lender.


 


		24.7	Effect of Transfer Certificate



 


A Transfer Certificate takes effect
in accordance with English law as follows:


 


		(a)	to the extent specified in the Transfer Certificate, all rights and interests (present, future
or contingent) which the Transferor Lender has under or by virtue of the Finance Documents are assigned to the Transferee Lender
absolutely, free of any defects in the Transferor Lender’s title and of any rights or equities which the Borrower or any
Obligor had against the Transferor Lender;



 


		(b)	the Transferor Lender’s Commitment is discharged to the extent specified in the Transfer
Certificate;



 


		(c)	the Transferee Lender becomes a Lender with the Contribution previously held by the Transferor
Lender and a Commitment of an amount specified in the Transfer Certificate;



 


		(d)	the Transferee Lender becomes bound by all the provisions of the Finance Documents which are applicable
to the Lenders generally, including those about pro-rata sharing and the exclusion of liability on the part of, and the indemnification
of, the Facility Agent and the Security Trustee and, to the extent that the Transferee Lender becomes bound by those provisions
(other than those relating to exclusion of liability), the Transferor Lender ceases to be bound by them;



 






    	 	99	 



     


    

 


		(e)	any part of the Loan which the Transferee Lender advances after the Transfer Certificate’s
effective date ranks in point of priority and security in the same way as it would have ranked had it been advanced by the Transferor
Lender, assuming that any defects in the Transferor Lender’s title and any rights or equities of the Borrower or any Obligor
against the Transferor Lender had not existed;



 


		(f)	the Transferee Lender becomes entitled to all the rights under the Finance Documents which are
applicable to the Lenders generally, including but not limited to those relating to the Majority Lenders and those under paragraph
(b) of Clause 6.6 (Unavailability of Screen Rate)and Clause 9 (Fees), and to the extent that the Transferee Lender
becomes entitled to such rights, the Transferor Lender ceases to be entitled to them; and



 


		(g)	in respect of any breach of a warranty, undertaking, condition or other provision of a Finance
Document or any misrepresentation made in or in connection with a Finance Document, the Transferee Lender shall be entitled to
recover damages by reference to the loss incurred by it as a result of the breach or misrepresentation, irrespective of whether
the original Lender would have incurred a loss of that kind or amount.



 


The rights and equities of the
Borrower or any Obligor referred to above include, but are not limited to, any right of set off and any other kind of cross-claim.


 


		24.8	Maintenance of register of Lenders



 


During the Security Period the
Facility Agent shall maintain a register in which it shall record the name, Commitment, Contribution and administrative details
(including the Facility Office) from time to time of each Lender holding a Transfer Certificate and the effective date (in accordance
with Clause 24.4 (Effective Date of Transfer Certificate)) of the Transfer Certificate; and the Facility Agent shall make
the register available for inspection by any Lender, the Security Trustee and the Borrower during normal banking hours, subject
to receiving at least 3 Business Days’ prior notice.


 


		24.9	Reliance on register of Lenders



 


The entries on that register shall,
in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive in determining the identities of the Lenders and the amounts of their Commitments
and Contributions and the effective dates of Transfer Certificates and may be relied upon by the Facility Agent and the other parties
to the Finance Documents for all purposes relating to the Finance Documents.


 


		24.10	Authorisation of Facility Agent to sign Transfer Certificates



 


The Borrower, the Security Trustee
and each Lender irrevocably authorise the Facility Agent to sign Transfer Certificates on its behalf.


 


		24.11	Fees and Costs

		(a)	the Facility Agent shall be entitled to recover a registration fee of five thousand Euros (€5,000)
from the Transferor Lender or (at the Facility Agent’s option) the Transferee Lender;



 






    	 	100	 



     


    

 


		(b)	the Transferee Lender shall pay to the Facility Agent, upon demand, all reasonable costs and expenses,

Insurance Policy as a consequence of the assignment or transfer; and



 


		(c)	the Transferee Lender shall pay to the Facility Agent, upon demand, such amount as is payable to
the Italian Authorities to cover its costs of giving its approval under Clause 24.1 (Transfer by a Lender).

A Lender may sub-participate all
or any part of its rights and/or obligations under or in connection with the Finance Documents without the consent of, or any notice
to, the Borrower, any Obligor, the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee but with the prior written consent of SACE.


 


		24.13	Disclosure of information



 


A Lender may disclose to a potential
Transferee Lender or sub participant any information which the Lender has received in relation to the Borrower, any Obligor or
their affairs under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless the information is clearly of a confidential nature.


 


		24.14	Change of Facility Office



 


Subject to the prior written consent
of SACE, a Lender may change its Facility Office by giving notice to the Facility Agent and the change shall become effective on
the later of:


 


		(a)	the date on which the Facility Agent receives the notice; and



 


		(b)	the date, if any, specified in the notice as the date on which the change will come into effect,
provided that if (i) a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its
Facility Office, and (ii) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor
would be obliged to make a payment or an increased payment to the new Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under
Clause 10 (Taxes, Increased Costs, Costs and related Charges), then the new Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility
Office is only entitled to receive payment under that Clause to the same extent as the existing Lender or Lender acting through
its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.



 


		24.15	Notification



 


On receiving such a notice, the
Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Security Trustee; and, until the Facility Agent receives such a notice, it shall
be entitled to assume that a Lender is acting through the Facility Office of which the Facility Agent last had notice.


 


		24.16	Security over Lenders’ rights



 


In addition to
the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 24 (Changes to the Lenders) each Lender may without consulting with
or obtaining consent from the Borrower or any Obligor but subject to the prior written consent of SACE, at any time charge, assign
or otherwise create a Security Interest in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any
Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender (i) to the benefit of any Affiliate and/or (ii) within the framework of its,
or its Affiliates’, direct or indirect funding operations including, without limitation:

of the relevant charge, assignment or Security Interest for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or



 


		(ii)	alter the obligations of the Obligor or require any payments to be made by the Borrower or any
Obligor or grant to any person any more extensive rights than those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under
the Finance Documents.

any provision to the contrary, upon the enforcement of any charge, assignment or other Security Interest referred to in paragraph
(a) above, the beneficiary thereof (the “Beneficiary”) shall deliver a notice of that enforcement to the Facility Agent
(such notice to take effect in accordance with its terms) and the Beneficiary shall, upon fulfilment of the conditions referred
to in Clauses 24.2 and 24.3, become party as a new Lender in respect of the rights which are subject to that charge, assignment
or Security Interest.

subject to the relevant parties being satisfied that they have complied with all necessary “know your customer” requirements
in relation to such assignment or transfer.

		(b)	Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Security Trustee

		(b)	The Security Trustee shall have the discretion at any time:



 


		(i)	to delegate any of the functions which fall to be performed by an authorised person under FSMA
to any other agent or person which also has the necessary authorisations and licences; and



 


		(ii)	to apply for authorisation under FSMA and perform any or all such functions itself if, in its absolute
discretion, it considers it necessary, desirable or appropriate to do so.



 


		28	Conduct of Business by the Creditor Parties

		29	Sharing among the Creditor Parties



 


		29.1	Payments to Creditor Parties



 


If a Creditor Party (a “Recovering
Creditor Party”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 29 (Sharing
among the Creditor Parties) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:


 


		(a)	the Recovering Creditor Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt
or recovery to the Facility Agent;



 


		(b)	the Facility Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the
Recovering Creditor Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Facility Agent and distributed
in accordance with Clause 19 (Application of sums received) and Clause 30 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account
of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and



 


		(c)	the Recovering Creditor Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent,
pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”)
equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Creditor
Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 19 (Application of sums received) and Clause
30 (Payment Mechanics).



 


		29.2	Redistribution of payments



 


The Facility Agent shall treat
the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Creditor Parties (other than the
Recovering Creditor Party) in accordance with Clause 19 (Application of sums received) and Clause 30 (Payment Mechanics).


 


		29.3	Recovering Creditor Party’s rights



 


		(a)	On a distribution by the Facility Agent under Clause 29.2 (Redistribution of payments),
the Recovering Creditor Party will, if possible under the relevant applicable laws, be subrogated to the rights of the Creditor
Parties which have shared in the redistribution.



 


		(b)	If and to the extent that the Recovering Creditor Party is not able to rely on its rights under

Creditor Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.



 


		29.4	Reversal of redistribution



 


If any part of the Sharing Payment
received or recovered by a Recovering Creditor Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Creditor Party, then:


 


		(a)	each Lender which has received a share of the relevant Sharing Payment pursuant to Clause 29.2
(Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent for account of that Recovering
Creditor Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary
to reimburse that Recovering Creditor Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Creditor
Party is required to pay); and



 






    	 	125	 



     


    

 


		(b)	that Recovering Creditor Party’s rights of subrogation in respect of any reimbursement shall
be cancelled and the relevant Obligor will be liable to the reimbursing Creditor Party for the amount so reimbursed.



 


		29.5	Exceptions



 


		(a)	This Clause 29 (Sharing among the Creditor Parties) shall not apply to the extent that the
Recovering Creditor Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against
the relevant Obligor.



 


		(b)	A Recovering Creditor Party is not obliged to share with any other Creditor Party any amount which
the Recovering Creditor Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:



 


		(i)	it notified that other Creditor Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and



 


		(ii)	that other Creditor Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings
but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.



 


		(c)	Following full indemnification by SACE of the SACE Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) under the SACE
Insurance Policy, the provisions relating to the sharing of proceeds among the Creditor Parties in this Clause 29 (Sharing among
the Creditor Parties) shall not apply to any payment made to SACE by a Lender or the Borrower following a payment by SACE to
any Lender under the SACE Insurance Policy.

of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

Each payment received by the Facility

case may be) as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in
the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Facility Agent (following
which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the SACE Agent, if relevant to it) by not less than five (5) Business Days’

    	 	126	 



     


    

 


		30.3	Distributions to an Obligor



 


The Facility Agent may in accordance

amount of any currency to be so applied.


 


		30.4	Clawback



 


		(a)	Where a sum is to be paid to the Facility Agent or the SACE Agent under the Finance Documents or

that sum.



 


		(b)	If the Facility Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Facility
Agent had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract)
was paid by the Facility Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Facility Agent together with interest on that amount from
the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent, calculated by the Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

in, the currency of that country shall be translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country designated
by the Facility Agent (after consultation with the Lenders and the Borrower); and



 


		(ii)	any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of
exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down

with any generally accepted conventions and market practice in the Relevant Interbank Market and otherwise to reflect the change
in currency.

waivers etc. requiring agreement of all Lenders), a document shall be effective to vary, waive, amend, suspend or limit any

by the Facility Agent and the Security Trustee in their own rights, and, if the document relates to a Finance Document to which
an Obligor is party, by an Obligor (provided that no amendment or variation may be made to this Agreement or any other Finance

		31.2	Variations, waivers etc. requiring agreement of all Lenders



 


However, as regards the following,

agreement of all Lenders), no document, and no act, course of conduct, failure or neglect to act, delay or acquiescence on
