in Schedule II hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

GlaxoSmithKline Capital plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales (the “Company”), proposes to sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule II hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you (the “Representatives”) are acting as representatives, the principal amount of its securities identified in Schedule I hereto (the “Debt Securities”), to be issued under an indenture dated as of April 6, 2004 (as amended, modified or supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 21, 2014 and as further supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 15, 2018, the “Indenture”), among the Company, GSK plc, as guarantor (the “Guarantor”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (as successor to Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, pursuant to an Instrument of Resignation, Appointment and Acceptance dated April 12, 2017 among the Company, the Guarantor, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York), as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Debt Securities will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor as to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Debt Securities, the “Securities”).

Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 6 of Form F-3 that were filed under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”), on or before the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference. Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 19 hereof.

1. Representations and Warranties. The Company and the Guarantor jointly and severally represent and warrant to, and agree with, each Underwriter as follows:

(a) Registration Statement Effective. The Company and the Guarantor meet the requirements for use of Form F-3 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”) and have filed with the Commission an automatic shelf registration statement, as defined in Rule 405 (No. 333-[    ]) on Form F-3, including a related Base Prospectus, for registration under the Securities Act of the offering and sale from time to time of certain debt securities, including the Securities. Such Registration Statement, including any amendments thereto filed prior to the Execution Time, became effective upon filing. The Company and the Guarantor may have filed with the Commission, as part of an amendment to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 424(b), one or more preliminary prospectus supplements relating to the Securities, each of which will have previously been furnished to you. The Company and the Guarantor will file with the Commission a final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with Rule 424(b). As filed, such final prospectus supplement shall contain all information required by the Securities Act, and, except to the extent the Representatives shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to you prior to the Execution Time or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that contained in the Base Prospectus and any Preliminary Prospectus) as the Company and the Guarantor have advised you, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein. The Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Guarantor, threatened by the Commission.

(b) Registration Statement Not Misleading. On each Effective Date, the Registration Statement complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act; on each Effective Date and at the Execution Time, the Registration Statement did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and on its date as reflected in any filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act and on the Closing Date (as defined below), the Final Prospectus (together with any supplement thereto) will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantor make no representation or warranty as to (i) the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of the Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act (Form T-1), which is included in the Registration Statement, or (ii) the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company or the Guarantor by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (or any supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

2

(c) Disclosure Package. At the Execution Time, (i) the Disclosure Package and (ii) each electronic road show, if any, when taken together as a whole with the Disclosure Package, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or the Guarantor by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

(d) Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. (i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement, (ii) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or form of prospectus) and (iii) at the time the Company, the Guarantor or any person acting on their behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c)) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption in Rule 163, each of the Company and the Guarantor was or is (as the case may be) a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405. The Company and the Guarantor agrees to pay the fees required by the Commission relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1) without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r).

(e) Not an Ineligible Issuer. (i) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company, the Guarantor or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2)) of the Securities and (ii) as of the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (ii)), neither the Company nor the Guarantor was or is an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary to consider whether the Company or the Guarantor would be considered an Ineligible Issuer.

(f) Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (including the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof) does not include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated therein by reference and any prospectus supplement deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. The foregoing sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or the Guarantor by any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

(g) Authorization of Indenture and Securities. The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantor and has been duly qualified under the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Trust Indenture Act”); the Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company, and when the Debt Securities are delivered and paid for pursuant to this Agreement on the Closing Date, the Debt Securities will have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity; the Guarantees have been duly authorized by the Guarantor and, upon due issuance, authentication and delivery of the Securities and due endorsement of the Guarantees, the Guarantees will have been duly executed, issued and delivered and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity; and, when the Debt Securities have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered and when the Guarantees have been duly endorsed, the Securities will conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

(h) Organization of the Company and the Guarantor. Each of the Company and the Guarantor is organized and validly existing as a public limited company under the laws of England and Wales, with power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

(i) No Consents. No consent, approval, authorization, or order of, or filing with, any governmental agency or body or any court is required for the consummation by the Company or the Guarantor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities by the Company, except such as have been obtained or made under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Trust Indenture Act and such as may be required under state securities laws or the securities laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States in which the Securities are offered and sold.

(j) No Breach or Default. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company and the Guarantor of the Indenture, this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Securities and compliance with the terms and provisions thereof by the Company and the Guarantor will not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, (i) any law or regulation of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company or the Guarantor, (ii) any material agreement or instrument to which the Company or the Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or the Guarantor is bound or to which any of their respective properties is subject, or (iii) the charter or by-laws of the Company or the Guarantor, except in the cases of clauses (i) and (ii) above for such breaches, violations or defaults that would not affect the validity, binding nature or enforceability of the Indenture or the Securities or have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, earnings, business or properties of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(k) Investment Company Act. Neither the Company nor the Guarantor is nor, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds therefrom as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, will be an “investment company” as defined in the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(l) Disclosure Controls. The Guarantor and its subsidiaries maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act); such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company or the Guarantor and delivered to the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, as to matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the Securities shall be made on the date and at the time specified in Schedule I hereto or on such other date and at such other time as the Company and the Representatives may agree (such date and time of delivery and payment for the Securities being herein called the “Closing Date”).

5

5. Agreements. The Company and the Guarantor agree with the several Underwriters as follows:

(a) File Prospectus. The Company and the Guarantor will file the Final Prospectus with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act within the time period prescribed.

(b) Amendments to Registration Statement or Prospectus; Stop Orders. The Company and the Guarantor will advise the Representatives promptly of any proposal to amend the Registration Statement or file any supplement (including the Final Prospectus or any Preliminary Prospectus) to the Base Prospectus and will afford the Representatives a reasonable opportunity to comment on any such proposed amendment or supplement. The Company and the Guarantor will promptly advise the Representatives of the filing of any such amendment or supplement and of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose. The Company and the Guarantor will use their reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

(c) Final Term Sheet. The Company and the Guarantor will prepare a final term sheet, containing solely a description of final terms of the Securities and the offering thereof, in the form approved by you and attached as Schedule IV hereto and to file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) within the time required by such Rule.

(d) Amendment of Disclosure Package. If, at any time prior to the filing of the Final Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b), any event occurs as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made or the circumstances then prevailing not

6

misleading, the Company and the Guarantor will (i) notify promptly the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement the Disclosure Package to correct such statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to you in such quantities as you may reasonably request.

(e) Material Changes. If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, the Company and the Guarantor will promptly notify the Representatives of such event and prepare and file with the Commission an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

(f) Delivery of Earnings Statement. As soon as practicable, the Guarantor will make generally available to its security holders an earnings statement or statements of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158.

(g) Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company and the Guarantor will furnish to the Representatives copies of the Registration Statement and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and any supplement to any of the foregoing as the Representatives may reasonably request. The Company and the Guarantor will pay the expenses of preparation, printing or other production of all documents relating to the offering; provided that, if any Underwriter is required to deliver a Final Prospectus in connection with sales of Securities at any time six months or more after the date of the Final Prospectus, the expenses relating to such Final Prospectus shall be paid by such Underwriter.

(h) Qualification of Securities. The Company and the Guarantor will use their reasonable best efforts to arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities and will pay any fee of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. in connection with its review of the offering; provided that in no event shall the Company or the Guarantor be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified, to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject or to subject itself to taxation as doing business in any such jurisdiction.

7

(i) No Other Offering Materials. Each of the Company and the Guarantor agrees that, unless it has or shall have obtained the prior written consent of the Representatives, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees with the Company and the Guarantor that, unless it has or shall have obtained, as the case may be, the prior written consent of the Company and the Guarantor, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405) required to be filed by the Company or the Guarantor with the Commission or retained by the Company or the Guarantor under Rule 433, other than a free writing prospectus containing the information contained in the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof; provided that the prior written consent of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Free Writing Prospectuses included in Schedule III hereto and any electronic road show. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Representatives, the Company and the Guarantor is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” Each of the Company and the Guarantor agrees that (x) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and (y) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping.

(j) Lock-up. Neither the Company nor the Guarantor will, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Commission in respect of, any U.S. dollar-denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or the Guarantor (other than the Securities), which mature more than one year after the Closing Date and which are substantially similar to the Securities, until the Business Day set forth on Schedule I hereto.

(k) Stabilization. Neither the Company nor the Guarantor will take, directly or indirectly, any action that is designed to or that constitutes, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company or the Guarantor to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(l) Listing. The Company and the Guarantor will use reasonable best efforts to have the Securities listed and admitted to trading on the [   ] Stock Exchange or another “recognised stock exchange” (as defined in Section 1005 of the United Kingdom Income Tax Act 2007), and satisfactory evidence of such actions shall have been provided to the Representatives.

(e) Certificate of the Company and the Guarantor.

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantor in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and each of the Company and the Guarantor has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

9

(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Guarantor, threatened; and

(iii) since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (in each case, exclusive of any supplement thereto after the date hereof), there has been no material adverse effect or any development which in the reasonable judgment of the Company or the Guarantor will result in any material adverse effect on the financial condition, earnings, business or properties of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (in each case, exclusive of any supplement thereto after the date hereof) or as described in such certificate.

7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company or the Guarantor may otherwise have.

11

(b) Indemnification of the Company and the Guarantor by the Underwriters.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company and the Guarantor acknowledge that the statements set forth in [ ] constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) Actions Against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ a single separate counsel, and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel, if the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest. An indemnifying party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action, suit or proceeding effected without its written consent.

12

(d) Contribution. In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Guarantor and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company or the Guarantor on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the relative intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company or the Guarantor within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company or the Guarantor who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company or the Guarantor shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all

13

the remaining Underwriters) the Securities that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives, the Company and the Guarantor for the purchase of such Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Guarantor. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company, the Guarantor and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company and the Guarantor prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in the Guarantor’s Common Stock shall have been suspended by the London Stock Exchange or trading in the Guarantor’s American Depositary Shares shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the London Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by U.S. federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, after consultation with the Guarantor, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by any Preliminary Prospectus or the Final Prospectus (in each case, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company and the Guarantor or their respective officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company or the Guarantor or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7, 8, 14 and 18 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, (i) if sent to the Representatives, shall be mailed, electronically mailed or delivered to [    ] attention:[    ] or, (ii) if sent to the Company or the Guarantor, shall be mailed, electronically mailed or delivered to ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, email: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇.▇▇▇, attention: The Company Secretary.

13. Successors.

14. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed by manual or electronic signature (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Counterparts may be delivered via electronic mail or other electronic format (i.e., “pdf,” “tif” or “jpg”) transmission or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

16. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

17. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company and the Guarantor hereby acknowledge that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Underwriters and any affiliate through which any of them may be acting, on the other hand, (b) the Underwriters are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company or the Guarantor and (c) the Company’s and the Guarantor’s engagements of the Underwriters in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, each of the Company and the Guarantor agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Guarantor on related or other matters). Each of the Company and the Guarantor agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect in connection with the offering of the Securities, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Guarantor, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

18. Consent to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent to Accept Service of Process.

(a) Each of the Company and the Guarantor irrevocably consents and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding against it with respect to any matter arising out of or based upon this Agreement may be brought in the courts of the State of New York located in The City of New York or the courts of the United States of America located in The City of New York and hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in personam, generally and unconditionally with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding.

15

(b) Each of the Company and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints, and empowers [ ], with offices currently at [    ], as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any action, suit or proceeding brought against the Company or the Guarantor in any such United States or State court with respect to any matter arising out of or based upon this Agreement and that may be made on such designee, appointee and agent in accordance with legal procedures prescribed for such courts. Each of the Company and the Guarantor further hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to the service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents in any such action, suit or proceeding against it by serving a copy thereof upon the relevant agent for service of process referred to in this Section 18 (whether or not the appointment of such agent shall for any reason prove to be ineffective or such agent shall accept or acknowledge such service). Each of the Company and the Guarantor agrees that the failure of any such designee, appointee and agent to give any notice of such service to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any such action or proceeding based thereon. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Underwriters to serve such legal process, summons, notices and documents in any other manner permitted by applicable law or to obtain jurisdiction over the Company or the Guarantor or bring actions, suits or proceedings against the Company or the Guarantor in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by applicable law. Each of the Company and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or based upon this Agreement brought in the United States federal courts located in The City of New York or the courts of the State of New York located in The City of New York and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime.
