6.10		Without prejudice to clause 6.9, should nonetheless the Company continue to be included in a corporation tax or VAT fiscal unity with Seller post Effective Date, the Purchaser shall procure that the Company shall promptly pay to the Seller, or, as the case may be, Seller shall promptly pay (or procure to be paid) to the Company, an amount equal to the amount of corporate income tax or VAT assessed or omitted to have been assessed with the Seller (or any of its group companies), which relates to the period starting on the Effective Date and ending on the Completion Date and which pertains to the Business of the Company, calculated in accordance with Dutch tax accounting principles as if the Company would have been assessed by the. relevant Tax authorities on a stand-alone basis (i.e., the Company not being part of any fiscal unity) but, for the avoidance of doubt, in calculating such Taxes no financing cost relating to the Transaction will be taken into account.
6.11		The Purchaser shall procure that the Company shall indemnify the Seller, or, as the case may be, Seller shall indemnify the Company, against the loss of any right of Seller, or, as the case may be the Company, to a repayment of Tax, as a result of the set-off pursuant to art. 24 of the Tax Collection ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ of such right against a liability to Tax of the Company, or, as the case may be the Seller or any of its group companies, relating to a period up to the Effective Date except to the extent such Tax has been provided for in the Effective Date Accounts.
6.12		Notwithstanding clause 6.10, the Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller and hold the Seller harmless (schadeloos stellen en vrijwaren) for any Tax incurred by the Company relating to the period on or after the Effective Date or events on or after the Effective Date, whether claimed by the Tax authorities against the Seller or any of its Affiliates or otherwise.

	(a)		all periods up to the Effective Date; and
	(b)		the corporation Tax and VAT consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Company (or any of its predecessors) is or was a member on or prior to the Effective Date (or such later date when the consolidation is terminated), including for the avoidance of doubt any claims or set-off under the 1990 Dutch Tax Collection Act (lnvorderingswet 1990) and other liabilities that would not have

arisen but for the relationship, on or at any time prior to the Completion Date, of the Company with the Seller’s group.

6.14		A payment due by the Seller pursuant to clause 6.13, or, as the case may be, a payment due by the Purchaser pursuant to clause 6.12 shall not be considered due if and to the extent an adequate provision for the relevant Tax amount giving rise to such payment is included in the Effective Date Accounts.
		Conduct of tax affairs
6.15		The Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge that the Company will be excluded from the corporate income tax fiscal unity as from the Effective Date. Without prejudice to clause 3.8, the Seller shall prepare (or procure the preparation of), and duly and properly file (or procure the filing of) consistent with past practice the corporation tax return for the period up to the Effective Date.

6.17		The Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the Company shall, allow the Seller, upon reasonable written notice, access during normal business hours to the books, records and other information of the Company, including the right to inspect and take copies (at the Seller’s expense), exclusively if and to the extent necessary for the Seller to be able to comply with its statutory obligations.
6.18		Within two months following the Completion Date, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Purchaser (i) a draft opening balance sheet for Dutch corporate income tax purposes as at the Effective Date in relation to the Company and (ii) draft explanatory notes thereto. The Purchaser may submit to the Seller any comments the Purchaser may have on these draft documents within 10 (ten) Business Days of receipt of the draft documents. The Seller and Purchaser shall discuss in good faith the comments of the Purchaser. The Seller shall then within 10 (ten) Business Days after receipt of the comments of the Purchaser (and thus ultimately within two months and twenty Business Days as from the Completion Date) provide the Company with (i) an opening balance sheet for Dutch corporate income tax purposes as at the Completion Date and (ii) explanatory notes thereto.
6.19		The Purchaser shall procure that the Company will, in a manner and on a basis consistent with past practice and where relevant taking into consideration the opening balance sheet referred to in clause 6.18, duly and properly file with each relevant Tax authority, all Tax returns other than covered by clauses 3.8 and 6.15.

6.21		The Seller has the right to control the conduct of any such audits or other proceedings relating to Tax matters of the Company to the extent that they relate to the period up to the Effective Date and shall be entitled to settle and compromise any such audit or proceeding. The Seller shall consult the Purchaser, acting reasonably, and shall take into account any comments of the Purchaser, if and to the extent the Seller’s conduct could possibly result in adverse Tax consequences for the Purchaser or the Company. For purposes of this clause 6.21, the Purchaser shall procure that the Company shall grant an adequate power of attorney to the Seller.
6.22		If and to the extent that the Seller elects not to take over the conduct thereof in accordance with clause 6.21, the Purchaser shall procure that the Company shall (i) conduct the audit or other proceedings, (ii) advise the Seller periodically of developments in the audit investigation or other proceedings and (iii) obtain the Seller’s prior written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) on critical audit decisions and on material written communication to be forwarded to any Tax authority or competent court in relation to the audit or other proceedings. The Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold the Purchaser harmless (schadeloos stellen en vrijwaren) for the amount of any costs or expenses, including but not limited to reasonable advisor’s fees, incurred by the Purchaser or the Company.
		Seller’s further undertakings

	(a)		individually exceeds EUR 50,000 and
	(b)		when aggregated with any other amount recoverable in respect of all other claims (for the avoidance of doubt, such other amounts in each case individually exceeding an amount of EUR 50,000 exceeds EUR 250,000;

		in which event the Seller shall be liable for the aggregate amount of the Losses in relation to these claims.
9.2		The Seller’s maximum aggregate liability for a Warranty Breach is limited to 15% of the Purchase Price, except however the maximum aggregate Seller’s liability for a Warranty Breach relating to the Seller’s Warranties set forth in paragraph 3 (Shares) of Schedule 8 (Seller’s Warranties), or any other Claim is equal to the amount of the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, any Required Consents Adjustments shall be excluded from the aforementioned 15% cap.
9.3		The Seller shall not be liable for any claim by the Purchaser against the Seller for a Warranty Breach, unless the Purchaser has given notice to the Seller of such claim ultimately on 31 December 2011.

	(b)		for which and to the extent that such Losses are recovered by the Company or the Purchaser from any third party (including an insurance company); or

	(c)		which would not have arisen but for a change in legislation or regulations, or in a change in the interpretation or implementation thereof by any governmental body, or by reason of development in case law made after the date of this Agreement, or any amendment to or the withdrawal of any practice previously published by or of any extra-statutory concession previously made by a governmental body (whether or not the change purports to be effective retrospectively in whole or in part); or
	(d)		which would not have arisen but for a change in the Tax structure or corporate structure of the Company after Completion; or
	(e)		which arises as a result of any change in the accounting principles, bases, methods or policies after the Completion Date; or
	(f)		if for a Warranty Breach which is contingent, unless and until such contingent Warranty Breach leads to an actual liability that is due and payable; or
	(g)		which would not have arisen but for an action of the Purchaser, including a request or direction to the Company; or
	(h)		if and to the extent that any Losses result from the failure of the Purchaser to ensure all reasonable steps necessary or appropriate are taken to prevent or mitigate any Losses that could give rise to a Claim.

9.8		The limitations on the Seller’s liability as included in this clause 9 do not apply in the event of a Claim which is attributable to fraud on the part of the Seller.
10		Purchaser’s Warranties
