3. Management of the Artwork
3.1 The Co-Owners waive any rights or powers in connection with the management of the Artwork, for
which the Manager has fully discretion, without need of any previous approval. The Manager will act in the
Co-Owners' best interests in order to promote the Artwork and enhance its cultural and financial value. By
way of example, the Artwork may be loaned to any private or public entity, as well as publicly displayed or
exhibited at such exhibitions that the Manager deems fit for the above purposes.
3.2 The Manager will have the legal power to represent the Co-Owners in relation to the Artwork, to enter
into agreements with third parties on their behalf and to represent the Co-Owners in any court proceedings
for the protection of the Artwork.
3.3 The Manager may also take any action for the Artwork restoration or extraordinary maintenance, as the
Manager deems appropriate. The Manager shall notify any of these actions in advance to the Co-owners
with the indication of the relevant costs, and the Co- Owners shall issue their consent or refusal within 30
days from the date of receipt of the relevant notice. The consent shall be deemed as granted by each
Co-owner also upon failure to issue any response to the relevant notice by the Manager within the above
mentioned term. For the sake of clarity, the authorization to the Manager to adopt the measures set forth
by the present clause shall be deemed as granted through its approval by the simple majority of the
Co-owners upon the modalities listed herein.

documentation. The Co-Owners shall meet no later than 30 days from the submission of the relevant
financial statement for its approval upon simple majority vote. In case of failure to timely meet for the
approval of the financial statement, or in case of failure to issue any approval/denial to the financial
statement following the relevant meeting due to the lack of necessary attendance by the Co-Owners, the
relevant financial statement shall be considered as approved by the Co-Owners.
3.7. In the case the entire amount of available shares of the Artwork will not be sold within 18 months since
the public launch of the shares on the website, or in the case of the Manager’s bankruptcy, the Artwork
will be entirely sold offline and the Co-owners will be refunded of the purchasing price of the shares
acquired.
4. Temporary Holding

the Manager shall issue within 30 days from the beginning of each year of the Term the calendar of
availability of the Artwork for its temporary holding by the Co-owners. In case of multiple request by
different Co-owners for the same period of availability of the Artwork for its temporary holding, this shall be
assigned to the earlier request.
4.2 During the temporary holding period, each of the Co-owners guarantees and warrants that will not carry
out any action which could be, either actually or potentially, detrimental or harmful of the value (both
economic and artistic) of the Artwork. Each and every Co-Owner of the Artwork during its temporary
holding period shall be considered as guardian and holder of the Artwork according to the applicable law

territories, as the case may be) where the Artwork is located by the relevant Co-Owner during the
temporary holding period.

transport/holding/caretaking/surveillance cost, liability, expense, disbursement arising and/or deriving, in
any manner whatsoever, from the temporary holding and/or management of the Artwork (this including,
for the sake of clarity, also any cost related to any damage suffered by the Artwork during the temporary
holding period, as well the correspondent restoration expenses, if any).

in any manner whatsoever, from the temporary holding and/or management of the Artwork by each of the
