the date of the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding), Bridge Note Agent may take action to enforce its Liens on the Italian Collateral, but only if the Bridge Note Agent negotiates in good faith with the Exchanged Note Agent for a period of
thirty (30) Business Days (the “Negotiation Period”) in an attempt to agree upon the action or actions to take to enforce their Liens and the timing of any such actions, in each case for the purpose of maximizing the
realization by each Noteholder of value of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable time. If at the end of the negotiation period, the Agents are unable to agree upon such action or actions or the timing thereof, the agents shall, within two
(2) Business Days, submit for determination to a panel of three professional liquidators or other professionals (each a “Liquidator” and collectively, the “Panel”), such issues. One Liquidator shall be chosen
by each Agent and the two initial Liquidators shall mutually choose a third, neutral Liquidator. No person who has a conflict of interest with respect to any Noteholder or the subject matter of the issues in dispute between the Noteholders shall
serve on the Panel. The Agents shall instruct the Panel to deliver its decision not later than fifteen (15) Business Days from the date on which the Panel is constituted. The decision of the Panel shall be in writing and shall be final and
binding on each Agent and Noteholder, each Agent and Noteholder hereby waiving any right to appeal therefrom by resort to legal proceedings or otherwise. The Panel shall select a Liquidator, which may be a member of the Panel, to implement the
decision of the Panel. The fees and expenses of each Agent’s Liquidator shall be paid by the Noteholders for which such Agent is acting, and the fees and expenses of the third Liquidator on the Panel shall be shared equally by both groups of
Noteholders. The fees and expenses of the Liquidator selected to implement the decision of the Panel shall be paid from the first proceeds of the Italian Collateral. In addition, the Noteholders shall be required to indemnify the Liquidator selected
to implement the decision of the Panel on a several but not joint basis. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to Exchanged
Note Agent or Exchanged Noteholders under any of the Exchanged Note Transaction Documents, applicable law or otherwise, prior to the payment in full of Bridge Note Debt, neither the Exchanged Note Agent nor any Exchanged Note Noteholder shall,
directly or indirectly, take any Lien Enforcement Action with respect to any of the Italian Common Collateral (other than as provided in Section 2.10(a) above); provided, however, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Exchanged
Note Transaction Documents and for so long as such Event of Default under the Bridge Note Transaction Documents is continuing, subject at all times to the provisions of Sections 2.2 and 2.4 of this Intercreditor Agreement, commencing
thirty (30 ) Business Days after the receipt by Bridge Note Agent of the declaration of Exchanged Note Agent of such Event of Default under the Exchanged Note Transaction Documents and written demand by Exchanged Note Agent to Company for the
accelerated payment of all Exchanged Note Debt (unless Company or any Guarantor is subject to an Insolvency Proceeding by reason of which such declaration and the making of such demand is stayed, in which case, commencing on the date of the
commencement of such Insolvency 
  

 - 12 - 

 
Proceeding or unless a Liquidation Panel has been appointed in accordance with Section 2.10(a) above), Exchanged Note Agent may take action to enforce
its Liens on the Italian Common Collateral but only so long as Bridge Note Agent is not diligently pursuing in good faith the exercise of its enforcement rights or remedies against, or diligently attempting to vacate any stay or enforcement of its
Liens on, all or a material portion of the Italian Common Collateral (including, without limitation, commencement of any Lien Enforcement Action with respect to all or a material portion of the Italian Common Collateral). In the event Exchanged Note
Agent has commenced any actions to enforce its Lien on any Italian Common Collateral to the extent permitted hereunder and is diligently pursuing such actions, neither the Bridge Note Agent nor any Bridge Noteholder shall take any action of a
similar nature with respect to such Italian Common Collateral. 
 2.11 Section 2.10 shall not be construed to in any way limit or impair
the right of: (i) any Agent or any Noteholder to bid for or purchase any Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral initiated by any such person, (ii) any Agent or any Noteholder to join (but not control) any
foreclosure or other judicial lien enforcement proceeding with respect to any Collateral initiated by any Agent, so long as it does not delay or interfere in any material respect with the exercise by such Agent of its rights as provided in this
Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) Bridge Note Agent’s right to receive any remaining proceeds of Exchanged Note Priority Collateral after satisfaction and payment in full in cash of all Exchanged Note Debt, (iv) Exchanged Note
Agent’s right to receive any remaining proceeds of Italian Common Collateral after satisfaction and payment in full in cash of all Bridge Note Debt and in accordance with the Bridge Notes and the Bid Letter, and (v) Exchanged Note Agent or
Exchanged Note Noteholders to take any Lien Enforcement Action against the Exchanged Note Priority Collateral. 
 2.12 If Exchanged Note
Agent should honor a request by Company for a financial accommodation under the Exchanged Note Transaction Documents, whether or not Exchanged Note Agent has knowledge that the honoring of such request would result in an Event of Default, or act,
condition or event which with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under the Bridge Note Transaction Documents, in no event shall Exchanged Note Agent or any Exchanged Note Noteholders have any liability to Bridge
Note Agent or Bridge Noteholders as a result of such breach, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Bridge Note Agent on behalf of itself and each Bridge Noteholder, agree that Exchanged Note Agent shall not have any liability for
tortious interference with contractual relations or for inducement by Exchanged Note Agent of Company to breach of contract or otherwise. Nothing contained in this Section 2.12 shall limit or waive any right that Bridge Note Agent or Bridge
Noteholders have to enforce any of the provisions of the Bridge Note Transaction Documents against Company or any Guarantor.

otherwise sell, assign, transfer or negotiate all or any part of, or any interest in, the Exchanged Note Debt or the Bridge Note Debt, as the case may be; provided, that, no Noteholder shall be obligated to give any notices to or
otherwise in any manner deal directly with any participant in the Exchanged Note Debt or the 

  

 - 14 - 

 
Bridge Note Debt, as the case may be, and no participant shall be entitled to any rights or benefits under this Intercreditor Agreement except through the

 (d) In the case of an assignment or

Intercreditor Agreement and the written agreement by such person to be bound by the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement, provided, that, if any Noteholder assigns or transfers a portion of its respective Debt to an affiliate
controlled by or under common control with such Noteholder, such Noteholder shall cause such affiliate transferee to become bound by the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement, but no notice of such assignment or transfer needs to be given by
Noteholder to any Agent and such affiliate transferee shall not be required to execute any written acknowledgment or agreement. Unless and until such other Agent receives notice of such assignment or transfer by such Agent shall only be obligated to
give any notices hereunder to the assigning Noteholder and otherwise deal with such persons and any action by such persons shall be binding on such assignee or transferee.

favor of any such assignee or transferee and, in addition, will execute and deliver an agreement identical to this Intercreditor Agreement (subject to changing names of parties, documents and addresses, as appropriate) in favor of any third person
who succeeds to or refinances, replaces or substitutes for any or all of Exchanged Note Agent’s financing of the Company and of any of the Guarantors, whether such successor or replacement financing occurs by transfer, assignment,
“takeout” or any other means or vehicle. 
 3.4 Insolvency. This Intercreditor Agreement shall be applicable both before and
after the filing of any petition by or against the Company or any Guarantor under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar laws of any foreign jurisdiction to the extent possible, and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof, and all
references herein to the Company or any Guarantor shall be deemed to apply to the trustee for the Company or any Guarantor and the Company or any Guarantor as debtor-in-possession. The relative rights of Exchanged Note Agent, Exchanged Note
Noteholders, Bridge Note Agent and Bridge Noteholders in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Collateral or proceeds of Collateral, shall continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition, subject
to any court order 

  

 - 15 - 

 
approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, the Company or any Guarantor as debtor-in-possession. 
 3.5 Bankruptcy Financing. 
 (a) If
the Company shall become subject to a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and if as debtor(s)-in-possession move for approval of financing to be provided in good faith by Exchanged Note Agent (the “DIP Noteholder”) under
Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or the use of cash collateral with the consent of the DIP Noteholder under Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Bridge Note Agent on behalf of itself and each Bridge Noteholder agree that no
objection will be raised by Bridge Note Agent or any Bridge Noteholder to any such financing on the grounds of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of Bridge Note Agent or Bridge Noteholders so long as (A) the
interest rate, fees, advance rates, lending sublimits and limits and other terms are commercially reasonable under the circumstances, (B) Bridge Note Agent retains a Lien on the Exchanged Note Priority Collateral (including proceeds thereof
arising after the commencement of such proceeding) with the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (C) Bridge Note Agent receives for the benefit of itself and the Bridge Noteholders, a
replacement Lien on post-petition assets to the same extent granted to the DIP Noteholder, with the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and (D) such financing or use of cash collateral
is subject to the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (b) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Bridge
Note Agent or Bridge Noteholders to object to post-petition financing or use of cash collateral on any grounds other than the failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of the Bridge Note Agent. 
 (c) For purposes of this Section, notice of a proposed financing or use of cash collateral shall be deemed given when given, in the manner prescribed by
Section 3.7 hereof. 
 3.6 Bailee for Perfection. Each of the Agents hereby appoints the other Agent as agent for the purposes of
perfecting its respective Liens in and on any of the Common Collateral in the possession of such person; provided, that, an Agent in the possession of any Common Collateral shall not have any duty or liability to protect or preserve
any rights pertaining to any of the Common Collateral and, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, the non-possessing Agent hereby waives and
releases the other Agent from, all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the possessing Agent’s role as bailee with respect to the Common Collateral, so long as the possessing Agent shall use the same degree of care with respect thereto as
the possessing Agent uses for similar property pledged to the possessing Agent as collateral for indebtedness of others to the possessing Agent. After Exchanged Note Noteholders have received final payment in full of all of the Exchanged Note Debt,
Exchanged Note Agent shall deliver the remainder of the Common Collateral, if any, in its possession to Bridge Note Agent, except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or court order.

 Each of the above Agents may change the address(es) to which all notices, requests and other communications
are to be sent by giving written notice of such address change to the other Agent in conformity with this Section 3.7, but such change shall not be effective until notice of such change has been received by the other Agents.

AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE
PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. 
 3.11 Complete Agreement. This written Intercreditor Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and is intended as a complete statement of the terms and conditions of their
agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 3.12 No Third Parties Benefited. Except as expressly provided in
Section 3.3 and consents which are deemed to have been given under Section 2.9 hereof, this Intercreditor Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Noteholders and their respective successors, participants and assigns, and
no other person shall have any right, benefit, priority or interest under, or because of the existence of, this Intercreditor Agreement. 
 3.13 Disclosures; Non-Reliance. Each Agent and each Noteholder has the means to, and shall in the future remain, fully informed as to the financial condition and other affairs of Company and no Agent nor any Noteholder shall have any

 3.15
Lien Subordination. Nothing in this Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, the definitions of Exchanged Note Debt or Bridge Note Debt) shall be deemed to subordinate the right of any Agent or any Noteholders to receive
payment to the right of any other Agent or any other Noteholder to receive payment (whether before or after the occurrence of any Insolvency Proceeding), it being the intent of the parties hereto that, to the extent provided in this Intercreditor
Agreement, (a) the Lien of Bridge Note Agent and Bridge Noteholders with respect to Exchanged Note Priority Collateral shall be junior to the Lien of Exchanged Note Agent in Exchanged Note Priority Collateral as a result of the Lien priorities
provided for in this Intercreditor Agreement (so that all proceeds of Exchanged Note Priority Collateral shall, to the extent provided in this Intercreditor Agreement, be paid to Exchanged Note Agent for application to Exchanged Note Debt before
Bridge Note Agent or Bridge 

  

 - 18 - 

 
Noteholders shall receive any proceeds of such Collateral for application to the Bridge Note Debt) and (b) the Lien of Exchanged Note Agent and
Exchanged Note Noteholders with respect to Bridge Note Priority Collateral shall be junior to the Lien of Bridge Note Agent and Bridge Note Noteholders in Bridge Note Priority Collateral as a result of the Lien priorities provided for in this
Intercreditor Agreement (so that all proceeds of Italian Common Collateral shall, to the extent provided in this Intercreditor Agreement, be paid to Bridge Note Agent for application to Bridge Note Debt in accordance with the terms of the Bridge
Notes and the Bid Letter before Exchanged Note Agent or Exchanged Note Noteholders shall receive any proceeds of such Bridge Note Priority Collateral for application to the Exchanged Note Debt).
