The Transferee shall be solely responsible for the management, operation and routine and non-routine maintenance of the Plant in respect of which the right of superficies has been transferred, as well as for those portions of the roof directly occupied by the photovoltaic modules, the support structures, the fixing elements and the components strictly functional to the Plant, to the extent necessary for its proper and safe operation.
18.2Roof maintenance - exclusion of the Transferee’s liability
The Transferee is expressly excluded from any liability in relation to the routine and non-routine maintenance of the warehouse roofs, which shall remain entirely the responsibility of the Transferor and/or the owner or lessor of the property depending on the form that the latter’s title thereto takes.
By way of example only and without limitation, the following remain the responsibility of the Transferor and/or the owner/lessor:
•the cleaning and maintenance of gutters, drainage channels, downpipes and rainwater collection systems;
•the inspection, maintenance and repair of the structural and waterproof layer of the roof;
•inspections and repairs relating to corrosion, material degradation, structural subsidence or infiltration of water;
•any building or structural work on the roof that is not directly and unequivocally attributable to the Plant.
It is agreed that routine and non-routine maintenance work on the roof, carried out by the Transferor, shall be performed by adopting all appropriate precautions and operating procedures to ensure the safety of persons, structures and installations, in full compliance with the law from time to time in force.
18.2-bis Fire safety upgrades and impacts on the Photovoltaic Plant
The Transferor shall bear in full all costs, expenses and liability in the event that, following works, maintenance, structural or functional modifications carried out on the building beneath the Plant or on the roof due to fire safety upgrades, it becomes necessary to make changes to the Plant such as to affect, even temporarily, its configuration, layout or output.
In particular, the following shall be borne exclusively by the Transferor:
•the costs relating to the relocation, repositioning, reduction or rearrangement of the photovoltaic modules, support structures or other components of the Plant;
•the costs of design, dismantling, reassembly, testing and recommissioning of the Plant;
•any loss of production, loss of earnings, reduction in incentives or revenue suffered by the Transferee as a result of the aforementioned modifications, including where such work is required by the competent authorities or made necessary to ensure compliance of the building beneath the Plant with the fire safety regulations from time to time in force.
It is agreed that under no circumstances shall such works be deemed to be a breach or violation of the Transferee’s obligations, nor shall they entail any reduction, suspension or limitation of the rights arising from the Right of Superficies.
Any damage to the roof or the property may be attributed to the Transferee only if it is directly and unequivocally attributable to the Plant or to maintenance work carried out on it. In all other cases, the consequences of such damage shall be borne by the Transferor and/or the owner/lessor of the property.
18.4Succession as regards the Right of Superficies in the event of transfer of the property
In the event of the sale, transfer for any reason, lease, letting or granting of other right of use in favor of third parties of one or more warehouses on whose roofs the Plant is situated:
a)the successor, in any guise, shall automatically be bound by the Right of Superficies, accepting in full and without reservation all the conditions, obligations, limitations and agreements in that regard;
b)the Right of Superficies and its associated conditions shall be enforceable as against third parties and shall bind any subsequent owner or occupier of the property until the natural expiry of the right itself and extensions thereto, if any;
c)the Transferor undertakes to ensure that any deed of transfer or grant of the property contains an express reference to the existence of the Right of Superficies.
The Parties hereby undertake that, within 6 (six) months prior to the expiry of the Term, they will negotiate in good faith an extension, if any, of the Term, to be formalized by a notarial deed (hereinafter the “Extension”). The Parties hereby agree that, should the Extension not be signed within 6 (six) months prior to the expiry of the Term, the Transferee shall proceed with the dismantling and disposal of the Plant at its own expense. The Transferee shall also bear any notarial fees relating to the cancellation of the Right of Superficies, should that prove necessary. The Transferee undertakes to take out, and to maintain in force for the entire duration of its ownership of the Plant, appropriate third-party liability insurance and workplace accidents insurance with a leading insurance company, with a limit of indemnity of not less than € 5,000,000.00 (five million euros and zero cents) per claim and in aggregate per annum, for the Plant, to cover all damage referred to in Article 18.3 above.
The Transferee further undertakes to use its best endeavors, subject to market conditions and the willingness of insurance companies to provide cover, to increase the aforementioned limit to an amount
of € 10,000,000.00 (ten million euros and zero cents), per claim and on an annual aggregate basis, by 31 December 2026, it being understood in any event that failure to obtain such an increase shall not constitute a breach of contract.
The Transferee undertakes to provide the Transferor, on an annual basis, with a copy of its All-Risks Property policy with a leading insurance company, covering:
a)extension to catastrophes and natural hazards;
b)fire and natural electrical phenomena.
The Transferor undertakes to indemnify and hold the Transferee harmless from any claim, dispute or demand made by third parties that is incompatible with or in conflict with the provisions of the Contract.
19.1The Parties authorize the completion of all formalities and release the relevant registry of deeds (conservatore dei registri immobiliari) from any liability.
20.Non-competition clause
20.1Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 2557 of the Civil Code, the Transferor is not required to refrain from carrying out business activities in competition with those of the Business.
21.1The Parties agree that any costs (including but not limited to fees and notary expenses), charges or taxes due in connection with the Contract shall be payable by the Transferee.
21.2Pursuant to Article 2 of Decree of the President of the Republic No. 633 of 26 October 1972 as amended, the Contract is not subject to VAT.
21.3The Contract is subject to a fixed-rate registration tax of 3% on the value of the movable property component and goodwill and 9% on the value of the immovable property component of the Business, pursuant to Article 51 and Article 2, l, Tariff, Part I, of Decree of the President of the Republic No. 131 of 26 April 1986
21.4The Transferee declares that it is aware of the contents of Article 14 of Legislative Decree No. 472 of 18 December 1997 and thus the resulting joint and several liability with the Transferor for the payment of tax and penalties relating to tax infringements committed in the year in which the transfer takes place and in the two preceding years, up to the value of the transferred Business.
22.1The Parties declare that they are entering into the Contract in the form of a private agreement in writing authenticated by a notary for all legal purposes.
22.2Pursuant to Article 2556, paragraph 2, of the Civil Code, the Contract shall be filed with the register of enterprises by the authenticating notary.
