***************************
1. Amount, purposes
The Bank grants the Borrower a loan of € 4,000,000.00 (FOUR MILLION EUROS) (hereinafter referred to as the “Loan”).
The purpose of the Loan is to pay the balance of the price agreed for the acquisition of the company BUC MOBILE INC. for $4,000,000.00 (USD 4 million) and raise working capital with the remainder.
2. Disbursement
The disbursement will be made in a single payment by crediting the amount loaned to current account no. 8051/1000/12514 owned by the Borrower at the Milan Branch of the Bank at Via Marconi Angolo Piazza Diaz, net of the charges referred to in Art. 10.
At the time of disbursement, the Borrower shall therefore issue a final receipt of the amount disbursed by signing the disbursement statement.
3. Term and methods of repayment
The term of the financing is fixed at 48 months from the date of disbursement.
The payment of interest, at the variable rate referred to in Art. 4, will take place in 16 deferred quarterly instalments, the first of which will be due on 25 October 2019 and the last on 25 July 2023.
Calculation of interest starts from the date of disbursement.
The principal will be repaid in 16 quarterly instalments with the same due dates as the interest instalments. All as per the repayment schedule attached to this act under the letter “A”.
[Page 2 of 11]
The Borrower authorises debiting of the amounts of each instalment from the current account referred to in Art. 2, which it undertakes to keep open for the entire term of the Loan and in which it undertakes to promptly deposit the necessary funds for payment of the instalments, as provided for in Art. 7 letter d).
4. Interest rate
The interest rate shall be determined for each quarter as one quarter of the sum of the following items:
| I.—a | fixed annual nominal rate of 2.60 percentage points called the spread; |
| II.—a | variable portion equal to the three-month EURIBOR interest rate (base 360)—applied to unsecured interbank loans in euros, calculated daily as the average of the prices recorded for a sample of banks with a high credit rating selected periodically by the European Money Markets Institute (EMMI), and recorded by the same on the penultimate bank working day of the month preceding the effective date of each instalment (currently equal to -0.344% per annum). The above rate will be published on the “EURIBOR I” page of the Reuters electronic circuit (or in future on any page or service that may replace it) and is normally published in the daily newspaper IL SOLE 24 ORE the following day. If, for any reason, the EMMI does not record this rate, it will be determined on the basis of the arithmetic average, truncated to three decimal places, of letter prices (with base 360) for three-month interbank loans in euros, recorded on the same day indicated above by at least two of the following banks: Unicredit of Milan, Deutsche Bank of Frankfurt, Societè Generale of Paris, Banco Bilbao Vizcaja Argentaria SA (BBVA) of Madrid and Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. of Turin. It is understood that a bank working day is a day on which the TARGET (Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross-Settlement Express Transfer) settlement system is open. |
The rate of the loan is currently 2.256% (two point two five six) nominal per annum.
The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) of this loan calculated today is 2.80% per annum.
If the algebraic sum of the Euribor parameter value and the spread determines a negative result, the rate is still fixed at zero since the borrower is in any event required to return the principal disbursed.
The interest referred to in this article shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed and with a fixed divider of 36,000 on an annual basis.
5. Late-payment interests
Any amount due at any level under this contract but not paid shall, from the due date and without the need for a formal notice of default, give rise to interest on arrears to be paid by the Borrower and in favour of the Bank. Periodic capitalisation of such interest is not permitted.
Late-payment interest shall be calculated at the nominal annual rate equal to the contractual rate referred to in Art. 4 above, currently equal to 2.256 (two point due five six) per annum plus 2.00 percentage points.
The late-payment interest shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed with a fixed divider of 36,500 on an annual basis.
6. Early repayment
Early repayment of the loan is permitted, in whole or in part, under the following conditions:
a) the Borrower has fulfilled all its contractual obligations at the time of early repayment;
b) that the early repayment does not take place at the same time as the due date of an instalment.
In instances of only partial early repayment, the related amount will be proportionally reduced from the instalments becoming payable, notwithstanding the original duration of the Loan.
[Page 3 of 11]
In the event of total or partial early repayment of the loan or loan acceleration, termination of the contract or withdrawal, the Bank shall only be entitled to a percentage fee on the principal repaid in advance at the rate of 1%; the Borrower shall not be charged anything else for that reason.
7. Miscellaneous obligations of the Borrower
From the date of acceptance of this contract until the definitive extinction of all the obligations assumed hereunder, the Borrower undertakes:
a) to send the Bank its annual financial statements along with the reports of the Board of Directors (and, where applicable, the reports of the Board of Statutory Auditors) within thirty days of their approval by the Shareholders’ Meeting, as well as the agenda of the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meetings and of any Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meetings as soon as they have been called, and is obligated to send the relevant minutes within thirty days of the Shareholders’ Meeting;

c) to immediately notify the Bank about any change or event of a technical, administrative, legal or contentious nature, even if it is well-known, which could substantially alter the financial, economic or operational situation in a negative sense or could in any case compromise its operational capacity; such events include, but are not limited to: the initiation of executive actions, circumstances that could lead to the withdrawal of one or more shareholders, receipt of the withdrawal notice from one or more shareholders, adoption of a resolution to allocate one or more assets to one or more specific transactions in accordance with Art. 2447 bis of the Italian Civil Code;
d) to keep open the current account referred to in Art. 2 and to deposit the funds necessary for payment of the instalments in a timely manner;

f) to ensure that the financial parameters indicated in Annex “B” are respected until the extinction of all the reasons for the Bank’s credit in relation to this Loan.
g) to ensure that in the Company the shareholders Xxxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx maintain a shareholding, cumulated between them, of not less than 30% of the share capital of the Borrower;
h) to ensure that the credits due to the Bank in relation to this loan are treated equally with respect to the credits of any of its other unsecured creditors and, in the event collateral is granted in favour of other creditors, to provide the Bank with collateral equivalent to that issued in favour of such creditors by no later than 30 days from the date on which such collateral is provided;
The bank and the Borrower expressly agree that the obligations referred to in this article are considered essential, the non-fulfilment or only partial fulfilment of even one of the same shall constitute cause for termination of the contract or withdrawal from it within the limits set forth in Article 9 below.
8. Undelayable nature of the obligations of the Borrower
The obligation of the Borrower to pay on the due dates all sums due as repayment of principal, payment of interest or other reason and, more generally, the performance of the obligations under this contract may not be suspended or delayed even in the event of a dispute, even a judicial one, that is raised by the Borrower, by a guarantor or a third party.

Furthermore, the Bank reserves the right to terminate the contract pursuant to Art. 1456 of the Italian Civil Code, without prejudice to its right to request a one-off waiver fee of 1% on the outstanding debt, each time the Borrower defaults on even one of its contractual obligations referred to in Art. 7 letter g) and letter h) of this contract.
The Bank also reserves the right to terminate the contract, pursuant to Art. 1454 of the Italian Civil Code, should the Borrower default on any of its obligations under loan contract no. 0IC0000000000 of 23/07/2018 and under the subsequent act of renegotiation of the current unsecured loan no. 0IC1043966578 signed by the Parties today, unless the Borrower remedies such default to the Bank’s satisfaction within 30 days from the date on which it sends the Borrower a written request to that effect.
C. The right of the Bank to withdraw from the loan contract is expressly agreed, in addition to any cause for the dissolution of the company, in accordance with Art. 1373 of the Italian Civil Code, in the event of the occurrence of any of the following events concerning the Borrower:
a) calling of a shareholders’ meeting to resolve putting the company into liquidation;
b) merger, demerger, transfer or contribution of a business or business unit not previously authorised in writing by the Bank;
c) existence of formalities, even if notice was provided in accordance with Art. 7, which, in the unquestionable judgement of the Bank, may be prejudicial to the legal, equity, economic or financial situation of the Borrower, for example but not limited to, the issue of injunctions, measures for attachment of company assets, the establishment of assets intended for a specific deal in accordance with Art. 2447 bis of the Italian Civil Code, etc.;
d) non-fulfilment of obligations of a credit, financial or guarantee nature, assumed towards any subject;
e) loan acceleration, termination or withdrawal for reasons attributable to the Borrower with respect to any third-party lender and in relation to any contract entered into;
f) non-fulfilment of the obligations referred to in Art. 7 letter d) (maintenance of the current account and the related funds).
Loan acceleration, termination of the contract or withdrawal of the Bank from the contract itself will be notified by registered letter with return receipt and take effect upon receipt of the relative notice, or when it is returned to the sender for completion of holding period.
[Page 5 of 11]
In the event of loan acceleration, termination, withdrawal provided for in this article, the Borrower shall repay all amounts due to the Bank under this contract, including any late-payment interest to the extent provided for in Article 5 above, within 10 (ten) bank working days of receipt of the Bank’s request.
