9.LIMITATIONS TO THE INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS OF THE FOUNDERS
The following is agreed in respect of the indemnity obligations of the Founders under Article 8 above.
No duplications
9.1Should the same event or circumstance represent a breach of more Representations and Warranties, said event or circumstance shall be indemnified with no duplications in compliance with the indemnity principle
Matters disclosed
9.2The Founders shall not be liable for any Indemnity Claim for breach of the Representations and Warranties if and to the extent that the fact, matter, event or circumstance giving rise to such Indemnity Claim is disclosed by this agreement. For the sake of clarity and for the purposes of this agreement “disclosed” means “fairly disclosed in such a manner that allows a reasonably diligent purchaser to, on the face of relevant documents, make an informed assessment of the nature and scope of the matter disclosed”. 
Duration of the indemnity obligation undertaken by the Founders 
9.3It remains agreed and understood that:
(a)the indemnity obligation under Article 8 shall remain incumbent on the Founders until the expiry of the following final terms:
(i)with regard to Indemnifiable Liabilities that would have not occurred if the Fundamental Representations and Warranties had been true and correct, until the 15th Business Day after the expiry of the applicable statute of limitations;
(ii)with reference to Indemnifiable Liabilities that would have not occurred if the Business Representations and Warranties had been true and correct and complete until the expiry of the 18th month from the Closing Date.
(b)the indemnity obligation under Article 8 shall remain valid also after the expiry of the final terms under point (a) of this Paragraph 9.3, provided that the Bidder has made the Indemnity Claim under Paragraph 10.1 below before the expiry of the aforesaid final terms.
Limitations to the amount payable by way of indemnity
9.4The liability of the Founders towards the Bidder pursuant to Article 8 will be subject to the following limitations:
(a)Euro 25,000 with reference to the Indemnifiable Liabilities suffered or incurred by Energica and which Energica would not have suffered or incurred if the Business Representations and Warranies, had been true, correct, exact and accurate (the “Bidder Business Representations Cap”); and
(b)Euro 5,000,000 with reference to the Indemnifiable Liabilities suffered or incurred by the Bidder or Energica and which the Bidder or Energica would not have suffered or incurred if the Fundamental Representations, had been true, correct, complete and accurate (the “Bidder Fundamental Representations Cap”);
(c)provided that: 
(i)the Bidder will not be entitled to be kept harmless and indemnified from any Indemnifiable Liabilities that would have not occurred if the Business Representations and Warranies or the Fundamental Representations and Warranties had been true and correct whose value, considered separately, is lower than euro 25,000 (“De Minimis”). In such respect, it is anyway understood that Indemnifiable Liabilities resulting from the same event or from connected events or from evens having the same nature, should be added together and considered jointly as a single Indemnifiable Liability for the purposes of the achievement of the De Minimis;
- 14 -






(ii)the Bidder shall not be entitled to be kept harmless or indemnified by the Founders pursuant to Article 8, until the whole of the Indemnifiable Liabilities that would have not occurred if the Business Representations and Warranties or Fundamental Representations and Warranties had been true, complete, accurate and correct having a value higher than the De Minimis has reached the aggregate value of euro 500,000 (the “Deductible”). In such respect it is understood that if the Deductible is exceeded the Founders shall be obliged to hold the Bidder harmless and indemnified for the whole amount;
(d)if the Delisting will not occur within the Closing Date, the Representations and Warranties other than the Insured Representations and Warranties and the Fundamental Representations will expire on the date on which the Bidder has announced to the market that the Minimum Acceptance Level Condition has not been fulfilled or the Minimum Acceptance Level Condition, the Material Acts Condition, the Defensive Measures Condition or the MAC Condition have been waived.
Recovery after payment by the Founders
9.5If the Founders have made a payment to the Bidder or Energica in relation to any Indemnity Claim and the Bidder or Energica is entitled to recover (whether by insurance, payment, discount, credit, deduction, relief or otherwise) from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates the Bidder (in whole or in part) in respect of the Liability which is the subject of an Indemnity Claim, the Bidder shall: (i) promptly notify the Founders of the fact and provide such information as the Founders may reasonably require; (ii) take all reasonable steps or proceedings as the Founders may require to enforce such right; and (iii) pay to the Founders as soon as practicable after receipt an amount equal to the amount recovered from the third party (net of Tax and less any reasonable costs of recovery).
Bidder’s duty to mitigate; no Indemnity Claims from acts or omissions of the Bidder
9.6The Founders shall not be liable for any Indemnity Claim to the extent that it would not have arisen but for, or has been increased or not reduced as a result of, any voluntary act, omission or transaction carried out: (a) after Closing, by the Bidder (or its directors, employees or agents or successors in title or any of its Affiliates); or (b) before Closing, by any of the Founders or Energica acting in accordance with this agreement or at the direction or written request or with the written approval of the Bidder.
No liability for changes in the legislation or in rates of Tax
9.7The Founders shall not be liable for any Indemnity Claim if and to the extent it is attributable to, or the amount of such Indemnity Claim is increased as a result of, any changes in accounting or Tax policy, basis or practice of the Bidder or Energica introduced or having effect after the date of this agreement. It being further understood that, in the event and to the extent that any amount to be indemnified under this agreement is deductible by the Company or the Bidder, as the case may be, for income tax purposes in any given fiscal year, then, in such event and to such extent, the amount of Indemnity Claim payable by the Founders will be reduced by an amount equal to the tax benefit obtained or obtainable (whether in the current or in any subsequent fiscal year) by the Company or the Bidder by virtue of such deduction
Consequential and indirect losses; contingent liabilities
9.8For the avoidance of doubt, the Bidder shall not be entitled to claim for any punitive, special, indirect or consequential loss or loss of profit or for any loss of goodwill or possible business after Closing, whether actual or prospective. 
9.9It further being understood that if any Indemnity Claim is based upon a Liability which is contingent only, the Founders shall not be liable unless and until such contingent liability gives rise to an obligation to make a payment.
Absence of limitations
9.10None of the limits contained in this Article 9, or elsewhere in this agreement, shall apply to the indemnification obligations incumbent on the Founders in case of fraud (frode) or wilful misconduct (dolo).

event, the Founders shall have to promptly announce their decision and that the consent to the settlement may not be withheld by the Founders without reasonable grounds;
(iv)without prejudice to the foregoing, should the Founders, but not the Bidder, be willing to enter into the settlement, Energica may refuse the settlement and start or continue the possible judicial or arbitral dispute at its own costs.
