9.1.1	Power and Authority of the Purchaser

The Purchaser is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.

The Purchaser has all requisite power and authority and has taken all actions (corporate or otherwise) necessary to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform fully the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, including to pay the Price.

Except for the Antitrust Clearance, all consents, approvals, authorizations and other requirements described by any Law which must be obtained or satisfied by the Purchaser and which are necessary for the execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transaction have been obtained and satisfied.

On the basis of the outcome of such investigation and relying on the accuracy and completeness of the data and information provided by the Sellers in connection with the Group Companies, as of the date of this Agreement the Purchaser is not aware of any facts or circumstances which would result in any Antitrust Authorities denying or delaying Antitrust Clearances.

10.	INDEMNIFICATION


10.1	Indemnification

Subject to the consummation of the Closing and without prejudice to Sections 10.3.4 (Monetary Thresholds) and 10.3.5 (Exceptions to Monetary Thresholds):

(a) the Sellers shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser harmless, in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification), in respect of any and all Losses incurred or sustained:

(i) by the Group Companies which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained if Sellers’ Warranties had been true and correct;

(ii) by the Purchaser which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained if Sellers’ Warranties had been true and correct, to the extent that such Losses are not indemnified under paragraph (i) above;

(iii) by the Purchaser or by the Group Companies which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained had all of the covenants and obligations of the Sellers set forth in this Agreement been duly complied with;

(b) Spig Holding shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser harmless, in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification), in respect of any and all Losses incurred or sustained:

(i) by the Group Companies which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained if Spig Holding’s Warranties had been true and correct; and

(ii) by the Purchaser which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained if Spig Holding’s Warranties had been true and correct, to the extent that such Losses are not indemnified under paragraph (i) above;

(c) The Members of the Mosiewicz Family shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser harmless, in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification), in respect of any and all Losses incurred or sustained by the Purchaser or by the Group Companies which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained had all of the covenants and obligations of the Members of the Mosiewicz Family referred to in Section 1.4(b) (Responsibility of the Parties; Spig Holding’s Minimum Capitalization) been duly complied with, with express exclusion of any further indemnification and hold harmless obligation of the Members of the Mosiewicz Family.

The Sellers’ or Spig Holding’s or the Members of the Mosiewicz Family’s indemnification for the Losses above shall be governed by the terms provided for hereunder (the “Indemnification”).

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that any Loss to be indemnified by Spig Holding and/or Ambienta and/or the Members of the Mosiewicz Family, as the case may be, shall be indemnified, after having applied all the exclusions and limitations set out in this Article 10, on a Euro per Euro basis, without taking into consideration any EBITDA multiples or price-earnings or any other criteria or assumptions, expressly or implicitly, applied and taken into consideration by the Purchaser in determining and agreeing with the Sellers the Price.


10.2	Responsibility of the Sellers

The Sellers responsibility for Indemnification shall be on a several basis with exclusion of any joint liability relationship among them and in particular:

(a) each of the Sellers shall be responsible for 100% of the Losses deriving from the respective breach of (i) Sellers’ Warranties provided for in Section 8.1 and (ii) covenants and obligations of the Sellers set forth in this Agreement;

(b) Spig Holding shall be responsible for 100% of the Losses deriving from the breach of the Spig Holding’s Warranties in relation to any of the Group Companies other than SPIG (Shanxi) Cooling Technology Company Ltd., in respect of which Spig Holding shall be responsible for 60% of the Losses deriving from the breach of Spig Holding’s Warranties in relation thereto (the applicable percentage of Spig Holding’s liability for the Losses contemplated by this paragraph (b), the “Relevant Percentage”).


10.3	Exclusion and Limitations


10.3.1	No Duplication

The amount of the Indemnification shall be with exclusion of any duplication which may be due to the fact that the same Loss derives from the breach of more than one of Sellers’ Warranties and/or Spig Holding’s Warranties, as the case may be, or with exclusion of any Loss which was taken into account in determining the Price pursuant to Article 4 (Purchase Price and Payments).

In case Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, have indemnified the Purchaser for a Loss suffered or incurred by any of the Group Companies, the correspondent Loss suffered by the Purchaser or by its controlling company because of the diminished value of the participation will not constitute a loss to be indemnified.


10.3.2	Deductions

The amount of the Indemnification shall be the entire amount of the Loss (or the Relevant Percentage thereof, in case of breach of Spig Holding’s Warranties), less:

(a) the amount of the provisions, if any, included in the Financial Statements, in the DCS Financials or in the accounting books of the Group Companies specifically with respect to the matter originating the Loss (or the Relevant Percentage thereof, in case of breach of Spig Holding’s Warranties), provided that amounts of such provisions that are referred to a specific claim or matter and then prove to be overstated or unnecessary

in connection with such claim or matter may be utilized against other claims or matters of the same nature encompassed by the same provision;

(b) any insurance proceeds recovered and, in general, any recoveries paid to the Purchaser or any of the Group Companies by third parties with respect to the matter originating the Loss (or the Relevant Percentage thereof, in case of breach of Spig Holding’s Warranties), net of costs of recovery or payment, provided that, (i) the Purchaser shall diligently pursue any recovery to be made under existing insurance policies or pursuant to existing rights towards third parties; and (ii) if the Purchaser or any of the Group Companies recovers any such amount from any such third party after receiving Indemnification from Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, for the same Loss pursuant to the provisions hereof, then such recovered amount shall be promptly reimbursed to Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, up to the amount of the Indemnification previously received from them in connection with that Loss;

(c) the amount of any Tax benefit actually realized by the Group Companies for the entry in their respective accounts of the cost associated with any such Loss, it being specified and agreed that the Tax benefit, if any, shall be conventionally calculated at a rate equal to the income Tax rate applicable from time to time for the Group Companies, irrespective of the Tax benefit actually realized.

In addition to the above, in case of any Tax assessments that only results in the shifting of the Tax burden from one fiscal year to another, and only to the extent the relevant Group Company is in the position to recover the amount challenged, any liabilities of Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article 10 (Indemnification) shall be limited to the actual net and final cash cost for the time/value thereof incurred by the relevant Group Company.

(d) if and to the extent the Losses, in whole or in part, arise or are increased as a direct result of the enactment of new legislation after the date of this Agreement, or a change in legislation existing as at the date of this Agreement, including (but not limiting the generality of the foregoing) any Tax legislation;

(e) in respect of any contingent or potential Loss, unless and until such Loss has become actual and due and payable by the relevant Group Company, provided however that the Purchaser will be entitled to validly and timely give notice of a Claim under Sections 10.3.6 (Time Limits) and 10.7 (Handling of Claims) even if the Loss is still not actual or incurred but only potential or contingent, provided that the Sellers’ and/or Spig Holding’s Indemnification will arise if and when the Loss becomes actual; or

(f) in respect of any indirect loss, consequential loss or punitive damages whatsoever, unless awarded in a Third Party Claim; or

(g) if and to the extent a Loss would have been avoided had the Purchaser or the relevant Group Company exercised ordinary care and diligence.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Indemnification obligations set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification) are autonomous and independent obligations, (ii) none of the Sellers’ Warranties and/or Spig Holding’s Warranties shall be construed as or otherwise deemed to be a warranty for the purposes of Articles 1490 or 1497 of the Code, which provisions of Law shall not apply to any breach of any such representation or warranty hereunder, and (iii) any Claim of Indemnification of the Purchaser under this Article 10 (Indemnification) with respect to any breach of the Sellers’ Warranties and/or Spig Holding’s Warranties shall not be subject to the statute of limitation ("prescrizione") periods and forfeiture ("decadenza") restrictions set forth in Article 1495 of the Code.


10.4	Acknowledgements of the Purchaser

The Purchaser acknowledges that:

(a) it has received independent legal advice relating to all the matters provided for in this Agreement;

(b) it has carried out the Due Diligence relating to the Group Companies prior to executing and delivering this Agreement, and the Due Diligence process has been satisfactory;

(c) no promise, representation or warranty (whether express or implied) as to the fairness, quality, accuracy, relevance, completeness or sufficiency for the Purchaser’s purposes of the information and documents, including the Due Diligence Documents, supplied or made available to the Purchaser, its Affiliates, and/or their respective advisors and counsels during the Due Diligence or otherwise has been made or is hereby being made by the Sellers, except as otherwise specifically set forth in Sections 8.1 (Sellers’ Warranties) and/or 8.2 (Spig Holding’s Warranties) hereof;

(d) Sellers’ Warranties and Spig Holding’s Warranties expressly set out herein are the only representations and warranties of Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, in connection with the Transaction, as set forth in Section 8.6 (No Other Representations and Warranties).


10.5	Indemnification by the Purchaser

(a)

Subject to the consummation of the Closing and without prejudice to item (d) below, the Purchaser shall indemnify the Sellers and hold each of them harmless, in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification), in respect of any and all Losses incurred or sustained by it which would not have been so incurred and/or sustained had (i) the Purchaser’s Warranties been true and correct or (ii) all of the covenants and obligations of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement been duly complied with.


(b)	The amount of the Purchaser’s indemnification shall exclude any duplication which may be due to the fact that the same Loss derives from the breach of more than one of Purchaser’s Warranties.


(c)	Section 10.3.3 (Exclusions) shall apply to Purchaser’s indemnification hereunder, mutatis mutandis.


(d)	The Purchaser’s maximum aggregate liability for indemnification (i) under Section 10.5(a)(i) will not exceed Euro 1,550,000 and (ii) under Section 10.5(a)(ii) will not exceed 100% of the Price, except in case of fraud (“dolo”) on the part of the Purchaser.


(e)	In no event shall the Purchaser be responsible for indemnification to the Sellers under this Article 10 (Indemnification) in respect of any breach of:


(i)	the Purchaser’s Warranties which is notified to the Purchaser later than 18 months following the Closing Date or


(ii)	any of the Purchaser’s covenants or obligations under this Agreement which is notified to the Purchaser after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date,

provided, however, that that if notice of a Claim under Section 10.7 (Handling of Claims) is received by the Purchaser prior to the expiration of the time limitations provided for under item (i) or (ii) above, the Purchaser’s indemnification obligations set forth in this Article 10 (Indemnification) shall survive the expiration of such time limitations until the relevant Claim for indemnification has been satisfied or otherwise resolved pursuant to this Agreement.


10.6	Sole Remedy

Without prejudice to Section 5.4 (Non Fulfilment of Conditions to Closing), the indemnification obligations of the Sellers, Spig Holding, the Members of the Mosiewicz Family and the Purchaser as provided for in this Article 10 (Indemnification) are the sole remedy to which each of the Parties may be entitled hereunder or otherwise for any breach of Sellers’ Warranties, Spig Holding’s Warranties, Purchaser’s Warranties and each of the Parties’ covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, in lieu of any other remedies to which any of the Parties might be entitled pursuant to applicable Law, which other remedies are hereby expressly waived by the Parties, except in case of fraud. In particular, but without limitation to the generality of the foregoing and without prejudice to Article 5 (Conditions to Closing) and Section 5.4 (Non Fulfilment of Conditions to Closing), no breach or inaccuracy, even if material, of any of Sellers’ Warranties, Spig Holding’s Warranties, Purchaser’s Warranties and/or covenants or obligations of any of the Parties set forth in this Agreement will give rise to any right on the part of the other Party or Parties to rescind, resolve or terminate this Agreement or to refuse to perform its obligations under this Agreement after the Closing Date, including under article 1460 of the Code or to commence any action under articles 1492, 1494 and 1497 of the Code. Furthermore, the Parties hereby waive and expressly agree that the remedies provided for in article 1467 of the Code shall not apply to this Agreement.


10.7	Handling of Claims

If any event occurs which would give rise to the liability of any of the Parties (the “Indemnifying Party”) for indemnification to another Party (the “Indemnified Party”) under the terms of this Article 10 (Indemnification), the following provisions shall apply.


10.7.1	Claims of Indemnification

The Indemnified Party will give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of the indemnifiable event (the “Claim”), specifying in reasonable detail the nature, basis and, where known, amount of the Claim and enclosing a copy of the relevant available documents, within 30 (thirty) Business Days after becoming aware of the occurrence of such indemnifiable event, provided, however, that failure to timely notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced by such failure, and:

(a) within 30 (thirty) days of receipt of a Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party the amount (if any) specified in the Claim, unless by the end of such 30-day period the Indemnifying Party delivers to the Indemnified Party a notice of disagreement in respect of the Claim;

(b) if a notice of disagreement is so delivered, for a period of 30 (thirty) days following receipt by the Indemnified Party of such notice of disagreement, the Parties shall attempt to resolve any differences which they may have with respect to any disputed matters as set forth in the notice of disagreement;

(c) if, by the end of the 30-day period referred to in (b) above, the Parties fail to reach an agreement in writing with respect to all the disputed matters set forth in the notice of disagreement, then all matters in relation to which agreement is not so reached may, at any time thereafter, be submitted by any of the Parties to arbitration pursuant to Section 14.2 (Arbitration).


10.7.2	Third Party Claims

In the event of any action, claim or Proceedings initiated by any Person other than the Parties or their Affiliates against the Group Companies, including claims made by Tax Authorities (any such claim, a “Third Party Claim”), the Purchaser shall deliver prompt notice of such claim to Spig Holding and/or Ambienta, as the case may be, and:

(a) Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, may, at their expense, decide to assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim, appointing counsel of their choosing and confirming to the Purchaser in writing that it or they (as applicable) shall provide Indemnification to the Purchaser (or the relevant Group Company) in relation to the outcome of their defense of the Third Party Claim. In such an event, the Sellers shall properly and diligently defend the Third Party Claim and the Purchaser may participate, at its own expense or at the relevant Group Company's expense, in such defence with counsel of its own choice. The Purchaser shall cause the Group Companies to reasonable cooperate with Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, so as long as the relevant Seller(s) is/are

conducting the defence of the Third Party Claim, including making evidence available which is within the control of the Group Companies (subject to precautions aimed at protecting confidential information) and persons needed as witnesses who are employed by the Group Companies, in each case as reasonably needed for such defence;

(b) If Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, either (i) elect not to assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim or (ii) having elected to assume such control, thereafter fail to defend the Third Party Claim within a reasonable time, then the Purchaser shall be entitled to assume such control, and Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, may participate, at their own expense, in such defence with counsel of their own choice, reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, provided that they shall be bound by the results obtained by the Purchaser with respect to the defense of the Third Party Claim. In the circumstances contemplated by this paragraph (b), the Purchaser shall properly and diligently defend, and shall cause the Group Companies to properly and diligently defend, the Third Party Claim;

(c) the Purchaser shall not (and shall cause the relevant Group Companies not to) propose or accept any settlement of any Third Party Claim, nor shall the Purchaser (or the relevant Group Company) acquiesce thereto, without the prior written consent of Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

(d) if a firm offer is made to any of the Group Companies or to the Purchaser to settle a Third Party Claim, which Spig Holding and Ambienta, as the case may be, but not the Purchaser, are willing to accept, the Purchaser and/or the Group Companies (as the case may be) shall be free not to enter into such settlement and to commence or continue litigation, at their own expense, but Spig Holding and/or Ambienta’s, as the case may be, liability for Indemnification shall be limited to the amount of the proposed settlement.


10.7.3	Cooperation of the Indemnified Party

In the event of any Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give the Indemnifying Party reasonable access to its books and records and employees (including, with regard to the Purchaser, the Group Companies’) in connection with the matters for which indemnification is sought, to the extent necessary for the Indemnifying Party to assess the Claim, exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Article 10 (Indemnification).


10.8	Payments of Indemnification

The amount of any indemnification due by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party under this Article 10 shall be paid within 15 (fifteen) Business Days from, as the case may be:

(a) the expiration of the 30-day term for the Indemnifying Party to deliver a notice of disagreement in respect of a Claim pursuant to Section 10.7.1 (Claims of Indemnification) letter (a) without such notice being delivered to the Indemnified Party;

(b) the date of the agreement between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party on the matters set forth in a Claim pursuant to Section 10.7.1 (Claims of Indemnification) letter (b);

(c) the date of issuance of an arbitration award or of a court decision, or the date of a settlement, in case of a Third Party Claim;

(d) the date of issuance of an arbitration award pursuant to this Agreement,

by wire transfer in favor of the Indemnified Party to the bank account which shall be indicated in writing by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party at least 5 (five) Business Days before the relevant payment.


11.	NON-COMPETE UNDERTAKINGS


11.1	Non-Compete Undertakings

Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties, each of Spig Holding and the Members of the Mosiewicz Family severally (and not jointly) undertakes that it shall not - for a period of 3 (three) years from the Closing Date - engage or participate, directly or indirectly, in any of the following activities:

(a) purchase or hold, directly or indirectly, any participation in companies or businesses, engaged in the Competing Activities (as defined herebelow) in the Territory, except for any participation not exceeding 2% of the share capital in companies listed in a regulated stock exchange;

(b) work as director, employee, collaborator, advisor, manager, consultant or agent for any Person (other than the Group Companies) engaged in the Competing Activities in the Territory;

(c) directly or indirectly, solicit for purposes of employment or offer to hire any of the Employees or hire anyone who was an employee of any of the Group Companies during the twelve (12) months preceding such hiring.


11.2	Competing Activities

For the purposes hereof, “Competing Activities” shall mean the activity of designing, engineering, manufacturing, installing and commissioning of cooling systems and providing global services in relation thereto.

It is expressly acknowledged that the holding of the participations or the carrying out of the activities indicated in Annex 11.2 is and shall be expressly authorized by the Purchaser and shall not constitute a breach of the non-compete undertakings provided in this Article 11 (Non-Compete Undertakings).


11.3	Territory

The non-compete undertakings set forth in this Article 11 (Non-Compete Undertakings) shall be valid for the territories of the member states of the European Union, the United States of America, Canada, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Turkey, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Mexico, Vietnam, Philippines, Australia, Indonesia, Kuwait and Japan (collectively, the “Territory”).


11.4	Consideration for Non-Compete and Non-Solicit Undertakings

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Purchaser has agreed with Spig Holding (the latter acting both for itself as Seller and in the name and on behalf of the Members of the Mosiewicz Family, who are all shareholders in Spig Holding as described at recital E, in Spig Holding’s capacity as their authorized representative) upon specific, good and valuable consideration that has been taken into account in the determination of the Price and that adequately compensates Spig Holding (the latter acting both for itself as Seller and in the name and on behalf of the Members of the Mosiewicz Family as their authorized representative) for the non-compete and non-solicit undertakings that Spig Holding and the Members of the Mosiewicz Family have agreed to in this Article 11 (Non-Compete Undertakings).


12.	MISCELLANEOUS


12.1	Confidentiality and Announcements

Unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process, or by other requirements of Law or stock exchange regulations or Authorities, or disclosed in an action or Proceedings brought by a Party hereto in pursuit of its rights or in exercise of its remedies hereunder, each Party shall - and shall use its best efforts to cause its Affiliates and its officers, employees, counsels, accountants, financial advisors, consultants or other representatives to - keep confidential the existence and the contents of this Agreement and all documents and information concerning

the other Party or any of its Affiliates or the Group Companies furnished to it by the other Party in connection with this Agreement or the Transaction.

Beside the press release to be issued upon the execution of this Agreement, which the Parties have agreed upon and shall be substantially in the form as Annex 12.1, neither Party shall make any public announcements or issue press releases without previously agreeing with the other Parties the contents and timing thereof, provided however that each Party may make all announcements and disclosures that legal counsel to a Party may determine to be required by applicable Laws or stock exchange regulations or Authorities, previously consulting, to the extent that it is feasible, the other Parties concerning such announcements and disclosures.


12.2	Expenses, Costs and Fees

The Purchaser and the Sellers shall each bear their own expenses, costs and fees (including, without limitation, brokers, investment bankers, finders, attorneys and auditors fees) in connection with the Transaction, including the preparation and execution of this Agreement and compliance with its terms.

The costs associated with the transfer of the Shares (such as notarial costs, the so-called ▇▇▇▇▇ Tax and others, if any) shall be paid by the Purchaser.


12.3	Succession and Assignment

This Agreement is binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Neither Party shall assign this Agreement or respective interests, rights and obligations deriving from this Agreement to any third party, without the prior written consent of the other Parties, save for the right of the Purchaser to nominate the Designee upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article 3 (Right of Designation) above.


12.4	Waiver

No Party shall have been deemed to have waived rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any default or breach hereunder by any of the other Parties, unless such Party acknowledges such waiver in writing.

No waiver of any default or breach of a provision hereof shall be construed as to constitute a waiver of any further default or breach thereunder, whether similar or not, or as a waiver of the provisions itself.


12.5	Entire Agreement

This Agreement (i) supersedes any previous agreements or understandings among the Parties, written or verbal; (ii) represents (together with any documents annexed or referred to herein) the entire agreement among the Parties; and (iii) may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior agreement or understanding between the Parties, whether written or verbal, in each case concerning the subject matter hereof.


12.6	Amendments

Any modifications or amendments to the Agreement shall only be valid and binding if in writing and duly signed by the Parties.


12.7	Severability

In the event that a provision of this Agreement is or becomes void or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity or the enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. In lieu of the void or unenforceable provision the Parties shall agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which comes as close as possible to the economic objectives of the void or unenforceable provision. If such a replacement is legally not possible, the Parties shall without undue delay give all declarations and take all actions, which are necessary in order to replace the void or unenforceable provision by a corresponding effective one.


12.8	Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall, taken together, be considered one and the same agreement.


13.	NOTICES

14.	GOVERNING LAW, ARBITRATION AND JURISDICTION


14.1	Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of Italy.


14.2	Arbitration

All disputes arising in connection with this Agreement shall be exclusively and finally settled by binding arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration and Conciliation of the International Chamber of Commerce then in force.

For the purposes of appointing the arbitration panel, all of the Sellers and the Members of the Mosiewicz Family shall be considered as a single Party and shall be entitled to collectively appoint only one arbitrator hereunder.

The panel of arbitrators will be composed of three members to be appointed as follows: each Party shall appoint one arbitrator; the two arbitrators appointed by the Parties will then appoint a third arbitrator who shall chair the panel. In case (i)

the third arbitrator is not appointed within 30 (thirty) days of the appointment of the latter of the two arbitrators appointed by the Parties or (ii) either one of the Parties fails to appoint its own arbitrator within 15 (fifteen) days of the notice of the appointment of the other Party’s arbitrator, then the third arbitrator and/or the arbitrator not appointed by either one of the Parties will be appointed by the ICC Court of Arbitration at the request of either Party. Each of the arbitrators shall be (x) an experienced arbitrator of disputes arising out of large, complex commercial transactions; (y) an Italy qualified lawyer who is fluent in English; and (z) unaffiliated, and without prior or current financial affiliations, with either Party.

The arbitrators shall resolve the dispute pursuant to the substantive Laws of Italy, without regard to their conflict of laws rules. The venue of the arbitration shall be Paris (France) and the arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English, in which regard all arbitrators shall be fluent in the English language.

Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the arbitration proceedings. In the award, the arbitrators shall finally allocate the arbitration fees, costs and expenses between the Parties.

The award, in which the arbitrators will be required to state the factual and legal basis for their decision, will be final and binding to the Parties and not subject to appeal or judicial review.

The Parties reserve the right to seek provisional or conservatory measures and injunctive relief from courts of competent jurisdiction in connection with matters submitted to arbitration pursuant hereto.


14.3	Jurisdiction

Without prejudice to the foregoing, each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Milan (Italy) in connection with those Proceedings relating to this Agreement which, due to their nature, cannot be the subject of arbitration under the Laws of Italy.
