SALE OF SHARES

At Completion, each Seller shall sell the Shares that are set out opposite its name in Part B of Schedule 1 and the Buyer shall buy the Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.

Any payment due to the Buyer in respect of any claim pursuant to this Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be and shall take effect as a reduction in Consideration paid to the person making such payment, to the extent legally possible.

CONSIDERATION

The aggregate consideration payable by the Buyer for the sale and purchase of all the Shares under this Agreement (the “Consideration”) shall be an aggregate amount equal to:

the Upfront Payment;

plus the Development Milestone Payments, if any;

plus the Regulatory Milestone Payments, if any;

plus the Commercial Milestone Payments, if any;

plus the Net Sales Payments, if any;

plus the Net Receipts Payments, if any; and

plus the JV Milestone Payments, if any,

All Contingent Consideration payable to a Rollover Seller shall be paid in the form of Loan Notes.

The Consideration shall be apportioned between the Sellers in accordance with their respective Proportionate Share save that in respect of Contingent Consideration that is payable to a Rollover Seller (the “Gross Sum”) the amount calculated as a Rollover Seller’s Proportionate Share of the relevant Contingent Consideration shall be adjusted down to an amount (the “Revised Amount”) which, when taken together with an amount equal to [***] interest on such amount (based on the rate used in the relevant Loan Note at the date the Loan Note is issued pursuant to Paragraph 4.3 of Schedule 5), results in the relevant Gross Sum. The Revised Amount shall be the Consideration paid, provided that the Gross Sum shall be the applicable Consideration amount for the purposes of such Seller’s aggregate liability pursuant to Schedule 4.

The Buyer shall not have any responsibility in respect of, and shall have no liability to any Seller in connection with, the arrangements between the Sellers in relation to the apportionment of the applicable Consideration as determined by the Sellers’ Representative and set out in the applicable Allocation Schedule or the applicable Final Allocation Schedule.

The Milestone Payments (if any), the Net Sales Payments (if any), the Net Receipts Payments (if any) and the JV Milestone Payments (if any) shall each be calculated and become payable in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 5.

The “Estimated Consideration” shall be an aggregate amount equal to:

the Base Consideration;

plus the Estimated Cash;

plus or less the Estimated Balance Sheet Assets/Liabilities;

less the Estimated External Indebtedness;

less the Estimated Change of Control Payments;

less the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses; and

less the applicable Executive Tax Amounts (if any) which is due and payable at Completion.

The “Completion Payment” that shall be paid in accordance with Clause 3.9 shall be an aggregate amount equal to:

the Estimated Consideration;

less the Retained Completion Statement Consideration; and

less the Retained Warranty Consideration.

The “Upfront Payment” shall be an aggregate amount equal to:

the Base Consideration;

plus the Completion Cash;

plus or less the Completion Balance Sheet Assets/Liabilities;

less the Completion External Indebtedness;

less the Completion Change of Control Payments;

less the Completion Company Transaction Expenses; and

less the applicable Executive Tax Amounts (if any) which is due and payable as a result of Completion.

At Completion, the Buyer shall pay:

the Completion Payment for the benefit of each Seller in accordance with their respective Proportionate Share in cash in United States Dollars in immediately available federal funds to the Paying Agent Bank Account; and

the Retained Warranty Consideration in cash in United States Dollars in immediately available federal funds to the Escrow Account,

Any amount that is paid in respect of a breach of the Warranties or under the Warranty Deed or otherwise under any provision of this Agreement providing indemnification, reimbursement or compensation for loss shall be treated, to the extent possible (but not so as to limit the amount payable where not wholly possible), as adjusting the Consideration.

The amount payable by any Seller under this Agreement, the Warranty Deed or other Transaction Documents shall be calculated on an after-Tax basis.

The parties intend and expect that no Executive Tax Amounts shall arise in respect of a payment to a Seller of any part of the Consideration, although payments of Consideration shall be made subject to withholding or deduction on account of Executive Tax Amounts or any other withholding or deduction to the extent required by applicable law. In the event that the Buyer considers that it or any Target Group Company is or will be liable to account for an Executive Tax Amount in respect of a payment of Consideration under applicable law, the Buyer shall promptly notify the Sellers’ Representative providing reasonable details of the relevant Consideration and the basis and quantum of such Executive Tax Amount thereon, and shall consult in good faith with and take account of the reasonable representations of the Sellers’ Representative to determine whether such obligations to account for Executive Tax Amounts arise and (if so) the amount thereof.

The Buyer shall procure that any deduction of Executive Tax Amounts under this Clause 3 or as part of the Contingent Consideration Deductions shall be made by the relevant Target Group Company (as applicable) and that such Target Group Company shall promptly account for such amounts to the relevant Tax Authority where required by applicable law.

RETAINED WARRANTY CONSIDERATION

The Retained Warranty Consideration shall be paid by the Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 4 (Retained Warranty Consideration).

If a Tax Covenant Claim, a Tax Warranty Claim or a Fundamental Business Warranty Claim (in each case which is an Uninsured Claim) is either settled in writing between the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) or finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (either from which there is no further right of appeal or the appealing party has not indicated reasonably promptly that it intends to appeal) (“Settled Claim”) before the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date then, to the extent that such amount has not been otherwise recovered from or paid by or on behalf of any Seller (whether by deduction, set-off or otherwise), the amount so agreed or determined in favour of the Buyer in respect of the Settled Claim shall be deducted from the Retained Warranty Consideration and the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay such amount to the Buyer in satisfaction of such Settled Claim and deducted from the amount that would otherwise be paid to the Sellers on the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date.

If written notice of a Tax Covenant Claim, a Tax Warranty Claim or a Fundamental Business Warranty Claim (in each case which is an Uninsured Claim) has been validly given by the Buyer, acting reasonably, in accordance with Schedule 4 and including the Buyer’s reasonable, good faith estimate of the amount of the claim, before the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date but it has not then become a Settled Claim (a “Notified Claim”) then the amount of such Notified Claim (a “Notified Claim Amount”) shall be deducted from the amount of the Retained Warranty Consideration that would otherwise be paid to the Sellers on the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date and shall continue to be held in the Escrow Account pending settlement or final determination of such Notified Claim in accordance with this Clause 4.

The liability of the Sellers in respect of any Notified Claim shall (if it has not become a Settled Claim) determine:

where the Notified Claim arises by reason of a liability of the Buyer or a member of the Target Group, that at the time of service of the relevant notice, is contingent only or otherwise not capable of being quantified, if legal proceedings in respect of such Notified Claim have not been commenced within [***] of such Notified Claim ceasing to be contingent or becoming capable of being quantified; or

where the Notified Claim does not fall within Clause 4.4.1, if legal proceedings have not been commenced within [***] of the service of such notice,

On the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay out of the Escrow Account to the Paying Agent Bank Account:

if there are no Settled Claims or Notified Claims, the whole of the Retained Warranty Consideration; or

if there are any Settled Claims or Notified Claims:

the Retained Warranty Consideration; less

the aggregate amount of any amounts due to the Buyer in respect of any Settled Claims; less

the aggregate amount of any Notified Claim Amounts,

After the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date, upon a Notified Claim becoming a Settled Claim then the following amounts shall be paid in respect of the amount that has been agreed or determined in favour of the Buyer in respect of the Settled Claim (the “Settled Claim Amount”):

if the Settled Claim Amount is more than the Notified Claim Amount, then:

the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the Notified Claim Amount to the Buyer; and

the Sellers shall, to the extent that they are liable in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 4 of this Agreement, remain liable to the Buyer for the excess in accordance with this Agreement;

if the Settled Claim Amount is the same as the Notified Claim Amount, then the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the Notified Claim Amount to the Buyer; and

if the Settled Claim Amount is less than the Notified Claim Amount, then:

an amount equal to the difference between the Settled Claim Amount and the Notified Claim Amount shall be paid to the Sellers in accordance with their Proportionate Share by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the Notified Claim Amount to the Paying Agent Bank Account and the Sellers’ Representative will instruct the Paying Agent to send payment in respect of the amount paid by the Buyer in accordance with this Clause 4.6.1 to the Sellers in accordance with their Proportionate Share; and

an amount equal to the Settled Claim Amount shall be paid to the Buyer by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative instructing the Escrow Agent to make such payment in satisfaction of the Settled Claim.

ALLOCATION SCHEDULE

The Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to the Buyer a draft schedule consistent with the Allocation Schedule Template (a “Draft Allocation Schedule”) setting out in respect of each payment of or on account of the Consideration as adjusted by Clause 3.3 and/or Paragraph 4.3 of Schedule 5:

each Sellers’ Proportionate Share of such Consideration;

the amounts of such Consideration to be paid:

in respect of the Upfront Payment, in cash in United States Dollars; or

in respect of any Contingent Consideration payable, (i) in cash in United States Dollars for any Non-Rollover Seller and (ii) through the issue of Loan Notes by the Buyer for any Rollover Seller;

in respect of the Upfront Payment, setting out the Completion Company Transaction Expenses, together with supporting evidence or invoices; and

any applicable Contingent Consideration Deductions, save where already deducted under Clause 3.8.

The Sellers’ Representative shall deliver the Draft Allocation Schedule as follows:

in respect of the Completion Payment on the Completion Date;

in respect of any amount payable pursuant to Clause 6, on the date payable in accordance with Clause 6;

in respect of any Milestone Payment on the date no later than [***] after the Buyer notifies the Sellers’ Representative of the applicable amounts pursuant to Paragraph 4.1 of Schedule 5, or such longer period as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree;

in respect of any Net Sales Payment on the date no later than [***] after the Buyer notifies the Sellers’ Representative of the applicable amounts pursuant to Paragraph 4.1 of Schedule 5, or such longer period as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree;

The Sellers’ Representative shall consult with the Buyer in good faith in respect of any comments of the Buyer, subject to Clause 3.3, in relation to the applicable Allocation Schedule(s) delivered pursuant to Clause 5.2 within the required period for such calculation. Following such consultation and in any event within [***] of delivering the Draft Allocation Schedule (or such longer period as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree), the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to the Buyer the relevant Final Allocation Schedule agreed with the Buyer (each a “Final Allocation Schedule”).

A Seller may request, on reasonable notice, to receive from the Sellers’ Representative a summary of the information relevant to such Seller set out in such Final Allocation Schedule.

If Completion is deferred beyond the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the parties shall comply with the process set out in this Clause 5 (including the obligation to consult on such Draft Allocation Schedule) and the applicable Allocation Schedule previously submitted shall cease to apply for all purposes.

COMPLETION STATEMENT

On the Completion Statement Release Date, either:

if there is a Positive Adjustment, the Buyer shall pay an amount equal to such Positive Adjustment to the Sellers together with the Retained Completion Statement Consideration, and the Buyer shall not be under any obligation to pay any additional amounts to the Sellers, and payment of such amount in cash in accordance with Clause 3.9 shall be an absolute discharge of the Buyer’s obligations, in respect of this Clause 6.1.1; or

if there is a Negative Adjustment, an amount equal to the difference between the Retained Completion Statement Consideration and such Negative Adjustment shall be released from the Retained Completion Statement Consideration and paid to the Sellers and the Buyer shall not be under any obligation to pay any additional amounts to the Sellers, and payment of such amount in cash in accordance with Clause 3.9 shall be an absolute discharge of the parties’ obligations, in respect of this Clause 6.1.2; or

if the value of the Upfront Payment is equal to the Estimated Consideration, the Retained Completion Statement Consideration shall be released and paid to the Sellers and the Buyer shall not be under any obligation to pay any additional amounts to the Sellers, and payment of such amount in cash in accordance with Clause 3.9 shall be an absolute discharge of the Buyer’s obligations, in respect of this Clause 6.1.3.

As soon as practicable following Completion but in any event within [***] after the Completion Date, the Buyer shall procure the preparation of a draft Completion Statement on the basis of the Accounting Policies and in the same (or substantially the same) format as the Estimated Completion Statement.

When the draft Completion Statement has been prepared, the Buyer shall deliver a copy thereof to the Sellers’ Representative. The Sellers’ Representative and their accountants shall then have a period of [***] after the date on which the Buyer delivered the draft Completion Statement to the Sellers’ Representative (the “Review Period”) within which to review the draft Completion Statement and to satisfy themselves that it has been duly prepared in accordance with this Agreement. The Sellers’ Representative shall, before the expiry of the Review Period, either:

confirm in writing to the Buyer that it agrees that the draft Completion Statement has been duly prepared; or

give notice in writing to the Buyer explaining, in reasonable detail, why it is unable so to confirm and setting out details of its proposed amendments to the draft Completion Statement and to the value of the Consideration.

If the Sellers’ Representative fail to provide such confirmation or to give such notice in accordance with Clause 6.3, the draft Completion Statement and the certificate of Consideration shall, upon expiry of the Review Period, be deemed to have been finally accepted and agreed by all parties.

If the Sellers’ Representative serves a valid notice in accordance with Clause 6.3.2:

the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) and the Buyer shall endeavour to resolve all matters in dispute as soon as practicable. If they fail to resolve such matters within [***] of the date on which the Buyer received such notice from the Sellers’ Representative (or such longer period as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall agree) (the “Resolution Period”), either the Buyer or the Sellers’ Representative may refer any matter in dispute to an appropriate firm of chartered accountants of international repute for a resolution. The identity of such accountant (who shall be based in the United Kingdom) shall be agreed between the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative and he shall be appointed within [***] of the expiry of the Resolution Period (the “Appointment Period”). If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative fail to make such appointment within the Appointment Period, the appointment shall be made by the President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales within [***] of the expiry of the Appointment Period, on the application of both the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative who shall act together. Such accountant shall be instructed to produce a reasoned determination of the matters still in dispute in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 6 and to make such reasoned determination as soon as practicable and in any event within [***] of his being instructed. In making such reasoned determination, such accountant shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and his decision shall (in the absence of fraud and manifest error) be final and binding on the parties. Such accountant shall make their determination when both the Buyer and Sellers’ Representatives have had the opportunity to make submissions, and the accountant shall provide the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative with copies of the others submissions after receipt of both submissions. The costs of such accountant shall be borne by the parties in such proportions as he may direct or, in the absence of any such direction, as to one half by the Buyer and as to the other half by the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Sellers; and

the parties shall bear their own costs in connection with the resolution of the matters in dispute.

The Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) hereby waive the right to object to any court order to give effect to any such nomination by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. In any case, such independent firm of chartered accountants shall owe a duty of care to both the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, any line items not identified in the notice served in accordance with Clause 6.3.2 as being in dispute will be deemed to be agreed for the purposes of this Agreement and will therefore (in the absence of fraud or manifest error) be final and binding upon the parties, save where such line item should be changed as a direct consequence of the agreement or determination of a disputed line item.

The Sellers’ Representative and their accountants shall be entitled to examine the working papers relating to the draft Completion Statement for the purposes of their review under Clause 6.3, subject to the Sellers’ Representative complying with any reasonable confidentiality, hold harmless or similar requirements of the Buyer or its accountants in connection with the release of such working papers to the Sellers’ Representative. Subject thereto, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) agree that they will promptly provide each other and their respective advisers with all information in their respective possession or control relating to the operations of the Target Group as may be relevant for the purposes of the Completion Statement, and with all good faith co-operation and assistance as may reasonably be required to facilitate the production, review and agreement of the Completion Statement.

Completion shall take place at the offices of the Buyer’s Solicitors on the Completion Date when the Sellers and the Buyer shall each perform their respective obligations in accordance with and as set out in Part A and Part B, respectively, of Schedule 2 (Completion Requirements).

The Buyer will not be obliged to complete this Agreement until each of the Sellers complies in full with its respective obligations under Part A of Schedule 2 (Completion Requirements).

The Buyer will not be obliged to complete the sale and purchase of any of the Shares unless the sale and purchase of all of the Shares is completed simultaneously, but completion of the purchase of some only of the Shares will not affect the rights of the Buyer with respect to the purchase of the remainder.

If Completion does not take place on the Completion Date because any of the Sellers fails to comply with any of its respective material obligations under this Clause 7 and Schedule 2 (Completion Requirements), then the Buyer may by written notice to the Sellers’ Representative and the Fund Sellers elect to:

proceed to Completion to the extent reasonably practicable (including, at the option of the Buyer, completion of the purchase of some only of the Shares), which will not affect the rights of the Buyer with respect to the purchase of the remainder; or

defer Completion in relation to some or all of the Shares to such date as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree (and so that the provisions of Clause 6, apart from this Clause 7.4.2, shall apply to Completion deferred pursuant to this Clause); or

terminate this Agreement (whether or not such failure by the Sellers amounts to a repudiatory breach), without prejudice to any other remedies or accrued rights that any party may have against any other party, following which the provisions of this Agreement shall cease to have effect, other than Clauses 1 (Definitions and Interpretations), this Clause 7, 11 (Confidentiality), 12 (Announcements), 15 (Costs and Expenses), 18 (General), 19 (Notices) and 20 (Applicable Law and Jurisdictions).

Seller’s Power of Attorney

With effect from Completion and until such time as the transfer of the Shares has been registered in the Statutory Register in the name of the Buyer (and the Buyer undertakes to the Sellers to use reasonable endeavours to procure the due submission of such registration promptly following Completion), each Seller irrevocably appoints the Buyer as their attorney (“Attorney”) with full power to exercise all or any of the voting and other rights, powers and privileges attached to their respective Shares or otherwise capable of being exercised solely in the capacity of the registered holder of the Shares as the Buyer shall in its absolute discretion see fit, including (but not limited to):

receiving notice of, attending and voting at any general meeting of or class meeting of the Company, and all or any adjournments of such meetings;

execute any consent to short notice proxy or written resolution capable of being executed by a shareholder of the Company;

dealing with and giving directions as to any moneys, securities, benefits, documents, notices or other communications (in whatever form) arising by right of the Shares or received in connection with the Shares from the Company or any other person but excluding any Consideration or other payments, documents, notices or other communications (in whatever form) arising pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; and

otherwise executing, delivering and doing all deeds, instruments and act in the Sellers’ name insofar as may be done solely in the Sellers’ capacity as registered holder of the Shares.

The Buyer may delegate one or more of the powers conferred on the Buyer by this Clause 7.5 to an officer or officers appointed for that purpose by the board of directors of the Buyer, by resolution or otherwise.

With effect from Completion and until such time as the transfer of the Shares has been registered in the Statutory Register in the name of the Buyer each Seller undertakes:

not to exercise any of the voting and other rights, powers and privileges attached to its Shares without the consent of the Attorney;

to hold on trust for the Buyer all dividends and other distributions received by such Seller in respect of its Shares (excluding any Consideration or other payments (in whatever form) arising pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document) and promptly notify the Buyer of anything so received by such Seller in that Seller’s capacity as registered holder of its Shares;

to act promptly in accordance with the Buyer’s reasonable instructions in relation to any rights exercisable or anything received by such Seller in the Seller’s capacity as registered holder of the Shares; and

to ratify on request anything the Attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Clause 7.5.3.

TERMINATION OF INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

With effect from Completion each of the Sellers agrees that:

the Investment Agreement is terminated and shall cease to have effect;

each of them shall with effect from such termination stand released and discharged from all obligations (past, present and future) arising under or resulting from the Investment Agreement including, without limitation, the provisions of clause 17.2 (Continuing obligations); and

none of them shall be entitled to exercise any rights or make any claim against any Target Group Company or against any of the other Sellers under or in relation to the Investment Agreement or its termination.

WARRANTIES AND COVENANT

The Fundamental Title Warranties

Subject to Clause 9.1.3, each Seller severally represents and warrants to the Buyer in respect of his, her or its own Shares and his, her or its own position only that each of the Fundamental Title Warranties is true and accurate in all respects and is not misleading at the date of this Agreement.

To the extent Completion is deferred beyond the date of this Agreement, each Seller and Warrantor will procure that each Fundamental Title Warranty given pursuant to Clause 9.1.1 is true and accurate and not misleading at Completion, and for this purpose, each Seller and Warrantor shall be deemed to repeat each such Fundamental Title Warranty at Completion with references to the “date of this Agreement” being substituted by references to the “Completion Date”.

Save as set out in Schedule 4 (Limitation on Liability), the Fundamental Warranties shall not be qualified in any way.

Each Seller hereby releases and forever discharges (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, and each Seller represents, warrants, indemnifies (on an after-Tax basis) and undertakes to the Buyer that it is authorised to provide such release and discharge on behalf of such other person) all or any actions, claims, rights, demands and set-offs whether in this jurisdiction or any other, whether or not presently known to the parties or to the law, and whether in law or equity, that such person ever had, may have, or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Target Group Company or any of their respective directors, officers or employees arising in respect of any such actions, claims, rights, demands and set-offs that relate to any act, matter or thing occurring prior to Completion, save for any payments due under any Transaction Document.

Patent Rights

General

No information relating to the Target Group of which the Buyer or any of its agents or advisers has knowledge (whether actual, imputed or constructive or any of them) other than that contained in or referred to in this Agreement or that has been Disclosed in the Disclosure Letter, and no investigation by or on behalf of the Buyer shall prejudice any claim that the Buyer shall be entitled to bring under this Agreement or shall operate to reduce any amount recoverable by the Buyer under this Agreement.

Each of the Warranties:

are separate and independent and, unless expressly provided to the contrary, are not limited or restricted by reference to or inference from the terms of any other provision of this Agreement or any other Warranty;

apply to the Subsidiary and, to the extent they are SanPlena Warranties, SanPlena as well as to the Company, as if reference to “the Company” included a corresponding reference to the Subsidiary and, to the extent they are SanPlena Warranties, to SanPlena (and each of them severally);

to the extent they are SanPlena Qualified Warranties, apply to SanPlena as well as to the Company, subject to the deemed addition of “so far as the Warrantor(s) is/are aware” in respect of such Warranty; and

shall not in any respect be extinguished or affected by Completion (and for the avoidance of doubt, the remedies of the Buyer in respect of any breach of the Warranties shall continue to subsist notwithstanding Completion);

For the avoidance of doubt, no claim against a Seller or a Warrantor under the Warranties shall be limited in the case of any fraud, dishonesty or deliberate misstatement or deliberate concealment on the part of such Seller, Warrantor or any of their respective agents, officers or employees acting on behalf of such Seller or Warrantor.

Each Seller undertakes to the Buyer that in the event of any claim being made against it arising out of or in relation to this Agreement, the Warranty Deed or the Transaction Documents, it will not bring any claim against any member of the Target Group (or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors, save in the case of any fraud, dishonesty or deliberate misstatement or deliberate concealment on the part of any such person) on which or on whom it may have relied before agreeing to the terms of this Agreement, the Warranty Deed or the Transaction Documents or authorising any statement in the Disclosure Letter. To the extent that any such claim exists, each Seller irrevocably waives the right to bring any such claim against or recover any sums from any member of the Target Group (or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors) in relation to such claim. Each member of the Target Group and any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors may enforce the terms of this Clause 9.3.4 in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999, provided that:

any such third party shall obtain the written consent of the Buyer; and

any such third party shall not be entitled to assign its rights under this Clause 9.3.4.

Each Seller severally and not jointly shall indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless on an after-Tax basis from and against, and pay on demand an amount equal to, their Proportionate Share (save in respect of an Executive Tax Indemnity Claim which is made by way of a Tax Warranty Claim where the relevant Seller in respect of which the claim is made shall pay the total amount) of any and all Losses suffered or incurred by the Buyer, to the extent arising from any Claim, Fundamental Warranty Claim or Tax Warranty Claim (notwithstanding whether the relevant Warranty was given by a Warrantor), provided that any and all claims by the Buyer under this Clause 9.3.5 shall be subject to the limitations applying to the Claim, Fundamental Warranty Claim or Tax Warranty Claim set out in Schedule 4 (Limitation on Liability) or the Warranty Deed.

The liability of each of the Sellers (whether in such capacity or in the capacity of Warrantor or otherwise) in respect of any claim under this Agreement and/or the Warranty Deed (including any Claim, Fundamental Warranty Claim, Tax Warranty Claim or Tax Covenant Claim) shall be limited as provided in Schedule 4 (Limitation on Liability).

Tax Matters

The parties agree that the terms of Schedule 3 (Tax Matters) of the Warranty Deed shall apply to the Sellers and that all parties shall comply with the terms of such Schedule as if the Sellers were a party to the Warranty Deed as a Warrantor and which shall include the giving of the covenant in paragraph 2 of Schedule 3 of the Warranty Deed.

All the provisions of Schedule 3 of the Warranty Deed, including all the limitations, shall apply to any Tax Covenant Claim made against a Seller.

PROTECTION OF GOODWILL

Each Covenantor undertakes to the Buyer and each of the Buyer’s Group Companies following Completion that he will not, and will procure so far as it is within such Covenantor’s reasonable power to do so, that no member of the Seller’s Group of such Covenantor will, directly or indirectly (save in accordance with his duties (if any) as an employee, consultant, director or officer of any Buyer’s Group Company after Completion):

at any time during the period of [***] from the Completion Date:

engage in; or

carry on; or

be a shareholder in; or

be a consultant to; or

be concerned or interested in any other way in,

the United Kingdom;

the European Economic Area;

the United States of America;

northern America outside of the United States of America;

southern and central America;

Africa and the Middle East;

the Association of Southeast Asian Nations; and

any other country not covered by the foregoing,

Subject to the ongoing consent of the Buyer (which consent can be withdrawn at the Buyer’s discretion at any time with written notice to [***] and [***] during the period of [***] from the Completion Date, until the valid execution of the JV Operating Agreement Amendment after the date of this Agreement), nothing in Clause 10.1 shall prevent;

[***] from continuing in his role as a board observer to SanPlena pursuant to the JV Operating Agreement;

[***] from continuing in his role as a consultant to SanPlena pursuant to the DC Consultancy Agreement; and

[***] from continuing in his role as manager on the board of managers of SanPlena pursuant to the JV Operating Agreement,

Each Seller (excluding the Fund Sellers) undertakes to the Buyer and each of the Buyer’s Group Companies following Completion that it will not, and it will, so far as it is within such Seller’s reasonable power to do so, procure that no member of such Seller’s Group will, directly or indirectly at any time prior to or during the period of [***] from the Completion Date:

Solicit the services of, or endeavour to entice away from the Target Group any director, employee or consultant of the Target Group who at Completion or at any time during the period of [***] prior to Completion occupied a senior or managerial position in relation to the Company or any member of the Target Group or who was likely (in the opinion of the Company) to be in possession of Confidential Information relating to any member of the Target Group (whether or not such person would commit any breach of his contract of employment or engagement by reason of leaving the service of such company);

interfere with or seek to interfere with contractual or other trade relations between the Company, the Subsidiary or SanPlena and any person who is or, at any time during the period of [***] prior to the Completion Date, was one of their respective contractual counterparties or persons with whom the Company or any of the Target Group Companies is, or was, in negotiations with, in respect of such an arrangement; and

do or say anything that is reasonably likely to be harmful to a Target Group Company’s goodwill or that is reasonably likely to lead a person who has dealt with a Target Group Company at any time during the [***] prior to the date of this Agreement to cease to deal with a Target Group Company on substantially equivalent terms to those previously offered or at all.

Nothing contained in Clause 10.1, 10.2 or 10.3 shall preclude or restrict any Seller from holding not more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the issued share capital of any company whose shares are listed on a recognised stock exchange.

Each of the undertakings contained in Clause 10.1 or 10.2 is a separate undertaking by each relevant Seller and shall be enforceable by the Buyer (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company and each Target Group Company and Buyer’s Group Company) separately and independently of its right to enforce any one or more of the other covenants contained in Clause 10.1 or 10.2 and if one or more of the undertakings is held to be against the public interest or unlawful or in any way an unreasonable restraint of trade, the remaining undertakings shall continue to bind the relevant Sellers.

The relevant Sellers agree (having, in the case of each Seller holding [***]% or more of the issued share capital of the Company at Completion, taken legal advice) that the undertakings contained in Clause 10.1 or 10.2 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate interests of the Buyer, the Company and any other Target Group Company or Buyer’s Group Company and that these restrictions do not work harshly on it.

The parties further agree that, without prejudice to any other remedy that may be available to the Buyer, the Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief without posting a bond or other undertaking in relation to any breach or prospective breach of the undertakings in Clause 10.1 or 10.2, it being acknowledged that an award of damages would not be an adequate remedy for such a breach.

For the purposes of this Clause 10.1 or 10.2, the expression “directly or indirectly” shall mean the relevant Seller or any member of such Seller’s Group acting either alone or jointly with or on behalf of any other person whether as principal, partner, manager, employee, contractor, director, consultant, investor or otherwise.

Each Seller (excluding the Fund Sellers) agrees with the Buyer, so far as it is within such Seller’s reasonable power to do so, to procure that all members of such Seller’s Group is made aware of and complies with each of the applicable undertakings contained in Clause 10.1 or 10.2.

CONFIDENTIALITY

Each Seller undertakes to the Buyer and to each member of the Target Group following Completion that it will (and will procure that each member of such Seller’s Group and each of their respective Representatives (to the extent that it has received Confidential Information from such Seller)) will keep confidential:

the provisions and subject matter of, and the negotiations relating to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents;

all Confidential Information and any other information received or obtained as a result of entering into or performing this Agreement that relates to Buyer’s Group and the business carried on by, and the affairs of, the Buyer’s Group; and

all Confidential Information and any other information received or obtained as a result of being a Seller, director, officer, employee or consultant of the Target Group in respect of the Target Group.

The Buyer undertakes to each Seller and to each member of each Seller’s Group following Completion that it will (and will procure that each member of the Buyer’s Group after Completion and each of their respective Representatives (to the extent that it has received Confidential Information from the Buyer)) will keep confidential:

the provisions and subject matter of, and the negotiations relating to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents;

all Confidential Information and any other information received or obtained as a result of entering into or performing this Agreement that relates to such Seller or such Seller’s Group.

Clauses 11.1 and 11.2 shall not apply to any disclosure of any information:

if and to the extent that such disclosure is required by law or regulation or by any stock exchange or any regulatory, governmental or antitrust body having applicable jurisdiction, including any Tax Authority, whether or not the requirement has the force of law provided that, in such circumstances, the disclosing entity will, unless prohibited by law or by any securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which that entity is subject, first inform the Buyer of its intention to disclose such information and take into account the reasonable comments of the Buyer;

if and to the extent required for the purpose of any proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, including in connection with any clearances submitted to any Tax Authority which disclose the details of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents;

if and to the extent that the Confidential Information concerned has come into the public domain other than through the fault of the party to this Agreement that is the recipient of the relevant Confidential Information;

if the disclosure is to its professional advisers, auditors or bankers subject in each case to binding obligations of confidentiality either in a form approved by the Buyer or the Sellers’ Representative (in consultation with the Fund Sellers) (as the case may be) or that are not less onerous, including pursuant to professional obligations;

if and to the extent the Buyer or the Sellers’ Representative (in consultation with the Fund Sellers) (as the case may be) has given prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or made subject to unreasonable conditions); and

if and to the extent the disclosure is to professional advisers, auditors, bankers, potential buyers of or investors only to the extent necessary or reasonably required in relation to a sale of or investment into any member of the Buyer’s Group or any part of their business or assets.

Each member of the Buyer’s Group (and each member of the Target Group) and, in respect of the provisions of Clause 11.2 given in favour of each member of each Seller’s Group, each such member of a Seller’s Group to the extent affected, may enforce the terms of this Clause 11 subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

Each Seller shall on request from the Buyer procure the assignment to the Buyer of the benefit of the confidentiality provisions of all confidentiality agreements and undertakings given by any other potential buyer of or investor in the Target Group to such Seller (and not any member of the Target Group).

The Sellers’ Representative will on request from the Buyer send a letter in a form reasonably requested by the Buyer to the other parties to such agreements and undertakings referred to in Clause 11.5 authorising the Buyer to recover all information (as defined in such agreements or undertakings) or requesting certification of its destruction to the Buyer, in each case in accordance with the terms of such agreements and undertakings.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Save to the extent any disclosure or announcement is required by law or regulation or by any stock exchange or any regulatory, governmental or antitrust body having applicable jurisdiction, no party shall make or issue any public announcement, communication or circular (an “Announcement”) concerning the sale of the Shares or any ancillary matter (including the Consideration) unless it has first obtained the Buyer’s and the Sellers’ Representative’s and, to the extent a Fund Seller is named in such Announcement, the named Fund Seller’s written consent (in each case such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or made subject to unreasonable conditions).

POST-COMPLETION ARRANGEMENTS

Records

shall on the reasonable request of the Buyer be sent to the Buyer to the extent that such records, paper, documents and data relate wholly to any member of the Target Group and are not already required to be delivered under Schedule 2; or

to the extent that such records, papers, documents and data also relate to the Sellers or any member of the Seller’s Group, shall be properly maintained and preserved by the Sellers and the relevant member of the Seller’s Group and the information in such records, papers, documents and data relating to the Business affairs of any Target Group Company shall be made available (at reasonable times and on reasonable advance notice) to the Buyer or any of its officers, employees, agents or advisers.

that each of the payments due to the Synthetic Executive Optionholder under the Synthetic Executive Option Agreement are made by the Company (or, if the Company ceases to exist or otherwise fails to make the payments, by another entity) to the Synthetic Executive Optionholder.

SET-OFF

The Buyer may set-off or withhold:

in the case of any Fundamental Title Warranty Claim, after the aggregate Consideration payments made to the Sellers exceed $[***]; or

in the case of any Uninsured Claim that is a Fundamental Business Warranty Claim made after the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date; or

in the case of any Uninsured Claim that is a Tax Warranty Claim, a Tax Covenant Claim (other than an Executive Tax Indemnity Claim), or any other claim under this Agreement (save for a claim described in either Clause 14.1.1, Clause 14.1.2 or Clause 14.1.5) after the earlier of (i) the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date and (ii) the aggregate Consideration payments made to the Sellers exceed $[***]; or

in the case of any Uninsured Claim that is a Claim or any other claim pursuant to this Agreement or the Warranty Deed (save for a claim described in any of Clauses 14.1.1 to 14.1.3 or 14.1.5 (inclusive)) after the aggregate Consideration payments made to the Sellers exceed $[***]; or

in the case of an Executive Tax Indemnity Claim,

If the Sellers’ Representative (in consultation with the Fund Sellers), acting reasonably and in good faith having taken appropriate advice with the written instruction from each of the relevant affected Sellers, does not believe the Initial Set-Off Amount to be a reasonable or good faith estimate of the relevant Set-Off Claim by the Buyer, the Sellers’ Representative may submit a written notice to the Buyer setting out the basis for its objection to the Initial Set-Off Amount (the “Set-Off Objection Notice”).

For a period of [***] (or such longer period as the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree) following receipt of a Set-Off Objection Notice (the “Set-Off Objection Period”), the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall discuss in good faith the basis for the Set-Off Objection Notice.

If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (in consultation with the Fund Sellers) do not reach agreement during the Set-Off Objection Period, the matter shall be referred by the Buyer to an independent counsel in England and Wales of at least 10 years’ relevant experience, mutually agreeable to the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (in consultation with the Fund Sellers), for an opinion as to whether the applicable Set-Off Claim is, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed and whether the Initial Set-Off Amount is a reasonable estimate of the liability, loss, damages, expenses or costs to the Buyer relating to such Set-Off Claim.

If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative cannot agree on the appointment of the counsel within [***] following either party notifying the other in writing that they do not agree with the choice of counsel in good faith, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall request the President of the Bar Council to make an appropriate appointment given the quantum of the Initial Set-Off Amount.

The following provisions shall apply to the counsel’s determination:

the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may provide the counsel with reasonable evidence or information relating to the matters in dispute (proportionate to the quantum of the Initial Set-Off Amount) and the counsel will be entitled (to the extent it considers appropriate) to base its determination on such information and on the accounting and other records of the Target Company;

if the counsel’s determination is either that the applicable Set-Off Claim is not, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed, or that the Initial Set-Off Amount is in excess of a reasonable estimate of the liability, loss, damages, expenses or costs to the Buyer relating to such Set-Off Claim, the Buyer shall bear the counsel’s costs and expenses, otherwise the relevant Sellers shall bear such costs and expenses in proportion to their respective Proportionate Shares;

the counsel shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator; and

the counsel’s opinion shall not be a determination of the actual liability, loss, damages, expenses or costs to the Buyer pursuant to the Transaction Document, (if any) only a determination of the Buyer’s ability to set-off pursuant to this Clause 14.

In the event that, in accordance with Clause 14.3, the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative agree or, in accordance with Clauses 14.4 to 14.6 (inclusive), the counsel’s opinion is:

that the applicable Set-Off Claim is not, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed, the Initial Set-Off Amount shall be released by the Buyer within [***] of such agreement or the receipt of such opinion and paid to the relevant Seller or Sellers in accordance as far as possible with the relevant Transaction Document; or

that the applicable Set-Off Claim is, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed and that the Initial Set-Off Amount is in excess of a reasonable estimate of the liability, loss, damages, expenses or costs of the Buyer relating to Set-Off Claim, then:

the excess amount shall be released by the Buyer within [***] of such agreement or the receipt of such opinion and paid to the relevant Seller or Sellers in accordance as far as possible with the relevant Transaction Document; and

the balance of the Initial Set-Off Amount shall be retained by the Buyer until the liability of the relevant Sellers in respect of such Set-Off Claim has been determined in accordance with the Transaction Documents and the Buyer shall serve a Notice in accordance with paragraph 2 of Schedule 4 as soon as is reasonably practicable after receipt of the counsel’s opinion; or

that the applicable Set-Off Claim is, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed, and that the Initial Set-Off Amount is equal to or less than a reasonable estimate of the liability, loss, damages, expenses or costs of the Buyer relating to such Set-Off Claim, then the Initial Set-Off Amount shall by retained by the

To the extent applicable, the provisions of Schedule 4 shall apply to all Set-Off Claims.

COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES

Each party shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and each document referred to therein, except as set out in Clause 15.2. The Buyer shall pay all stamp and transfer taxes arising from the acquisition of the Shares.

The Sellers agree that any cost, expenses, liabilities or associated Taxes incurred by the Target Group in connection with the Transaction shall be a deduction in the Consideration as Company Transaction Expenses in accordance with Clause 3 or pursuant to the Contingent Consideration Deductions.

Save where already provided for in a Transaction Document and subject to Clauses 3.12 and 3.13, in the event that any payments due to a party are subject to any Taxes, duties, levies, imposts, assessments, deductions, or withholdings required by applicable laws to be remitted by the payer to a Governmental Authority (“Withholding Taxes”), the paying party may deduct the amount of such Withholding Taxes from the applicable payment otherwise payable to the other party.

In such event, the paying party will, on a timely basis, notify the other party of such obligation, pay the Withholding Taxes to the proper Governmental Authority and send evidence of the payment of such obligation to the other party following that payment. Any amount of Withholding Taxes withheld and remitted by a paying party to a relevant Governmental Authority constitutes payment to the other party in satisfaction of the paying party’s obligations, as if the amount were paid directly to the other party.

In the event that any payment due to a party is subject to such Withholding Taxes, the paying party will not, except where this Agreement or the Warranty Deed provides for an amount to be calculated on an after-Tax basis, have any obligation to pay to such party any amount exceeding the amount of such payment minus the amount of such Withholding Taxes. Each party will use reasonable efforts to assist the other party in claiming exemptions from, or reductions in, such deductions or withholdings as permitted by applicable laws.

If Clause 15.5 applies, and save in respect of any Executive Tax Amount, such that a paying party is not obligated to pay any additional amount, and a Governmental Authority retroactively determines that a payment made without deduction of Withholding Taxes by a party to the other party pursuant to a Transaction Document should have been subject to Withholding Taxes, and the paying party remits such Withholding Taxes to the Governmental Authority, then the paying party will have the right (a) to offset such amount, including any interest and penalties that may be imposed thereon (except to the extent any such interest or penalties result from the negligence of the paying party), against future payment obligations of the paying party under this Agreement, or (b) to invoice the other party for such amount (which will be payable by the other party within [***] following its receipt of such invoice).

SELLERS’ REPRESENTATIVE

Each of the Sellers who are a party to this Agreement (excluding the Fund Sellers) hereby irrevocably appoints the Sellers’ Representative as the representative of the Sellers to act on their behalf for all purposes under or in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including without limitation for the purposes of:

accepting notices on behalf of the Sellers in accordance with Clause 19;

delivering payment instructions to the Buyer in connection with the payment of the Consideration;

determining the Proportionate Share payable to each Seller, including pursuant to Clause 3.1.2;

agreeing with the Buyer on the final Completion Statement;

agreeing with the Buyer on any Claims, Tax Warranty Claims, Tax Covenant Claims, Fundamental Warranty Claims or other claims pursuant to the Transaction Documents;

delivering to and consulting with the Buyer on any Allocation Schedule or Final Allocation Schedule;

granting any consent or approval, or signing any amendment or settlement, on behalf of the Sellers under or relating to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents;

taking any and all actions that may be necessary or desirable, as determined by the Sellers’ Representative in its sole discretion, in connection with the payment of the costs and expenses incurred with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents; and

generally taking any and all other actions and doing any and all other things provided in or contemplated by this Agreement to be performed by the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Sellers.

Each Seller hereby irrevocably (by way of security for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement) appoints the Sellers’ Representative as its attorney with full authority on its behalf and in the Seller’s name or otherwise to do all acts and to execute and deliver such documents or deeds as required by law or as may, in the reasonable opinion of the Sellers’ Representative, be required to give effect to the matters described in Clause 16.1.

The Buyer and each Seller acknowledge that in exercising the powers and authorities conferred by this Clause 16 or the Transaction Documents upon the Sellers’ Representative, the Sellers’ Representative shall not be acting, or be construed as acting, as the agent or trustee on behalf of any Seller.

Each Seller agrees that the Sellers’ Representative shall have no liability whatsoever to any Seller in relation to the exercise of those powers and authorities, and each Seller severally agrees to pay, indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers’ Representative pro rata to their respective Consideration in respect of any actions taken pursuant to this Clause 16, save in the case of fraud or bad faith on the part of the Sellers’ Representative. The Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any actions or omissions taken or occurring pursuant to legal or other professional advice.

The Buyer shall be entitled to rely on the exercise of the powers and authorities conferred on the Sellers’ Representative as if the relevant Seller is exercising such powers and authorities.

The provisions of this Clause 16 are intended to be for the express benefit of, and will be enforceable by, the Sellers’ Representative, in each case as a third party beneficiary in accordance with this Clause 16, and the Buyer.

The provisions of this Clause 16 shall apply mutatis mutandis in respect of any persons so appointed. If the Sellers’ Representative appointed in accordance with this Clause 16 determines that he is, or he is otherwise, unable to act as the Sellers’ Representative for any reason (such as death, incapacity or any other circumstances in which it would be unreasonable to expect him to continue) or is deemed unable to act as the Sellers’ Representative by a majority of the Sellers (excluding the Fund Sellers), a majority of the Sellers (excluding the Fund Sellers) may elect, pro rata to the number of Shares held by them, to substitute as the Sellers’ Representative another Seller who is willing to act as the Sellers’ Representative in accordance with this Clause 16. Each Seller agrees that the Buyer shall, acting in good faith, be entitled to rely on the instruction of the Sellers’ Representative.

PAYMENTS

Save as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Warranty Deed or the Loan Note Instrument:

any payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement, the Warranty Deed or the Loan Note Instrument by the Buyer (including the Consideration) shall be made to the Paying Agent Bank Account;

any payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement or the Warranty Deed by the Sellers shall be made to such bank account of the Buyer as it shall notify to the Sellers’ Representative in writing at least [***] prior to the relevant payment obligation;

payment under sub-clauses 17.1.1 and/or 17.1.2 shall be in immediately available funds by electronic transfer on the due date for payment and receipt of the amount due shall be an effective discharge of the relevant payment obligation; and

Capacity and Authority of the Sellers

Each Seller has full power and authority (without requiring the consent of any other person) and has taken all necessary corporate (or other) actions, to enter into and exercise its rights and perform its obligations to enter into this Agreement and (to the extent such Seller is a Warrantor) the Warranty Deed.

This Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents that are to be entered into by each of the Sellers will, when executed, constitute lawful, valid and binding obligations of such Seller in accordance with their respective terms.

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and (to the extent such Seller is a Warrantor) the Warranty Deed and the performance of and compliance with their respective terms and provisions by a Seller will not:

conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, the Articles or any agreement or instrument to which such Seller is a party or by which such Seller is bound; or

conflict with or result in a breach of any law, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or agency by which such Seller is bound.

Each Seller is not a party to any agreement or bound by any obligation, the terms of which will prevent the Buyer from enjoying the full benefit of this Agreement.

Each Seller is not subject to:

a receiver (which expression will include an administrative receiver or equivalent or analogous officer in its relevant jurisdiction) appointed in respect of all or any material part of such Seller’s assets; or

Commission and Finder’s Fee

No Seller is entitled to receive from any Target Group Company any finder’s fee, brokerage or other commission in connection with the purchase of the Shares and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents.

Monetary Limits on Claims

Subject to 2.4 below, the total aggregate liability of each Seller:

for all Fundamental Title Warranty Claims shall not exceed an amount equal to the amounts paid (which shall be deemed to include any amounts which have been, or but for the provisions of this paragraph 1.1(a) would have been, set-off and retained by the Buyer in accordance with Clause 14) to that Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and the Buyer’s rights of recovery (if any) shall be, at the sole discretion of the Buyer, either: (i) against each of the relevant of the Sellers directly pursuant to this Agreement (including but not limited to the set-off procedure set out in Clause 14); or (ii) pursuant to the W&I Policy, provided that the election of either (i) or (ii) shall not limit the ability to bring a claim in respect of the other;

for all Fundamental Business Warranty Claims, all Tax Warranty Claims or Tax Covenant Claims:

in respect of any such claims that are not an Uninsured Claim, shall not exceed the amount of US$ 1.00, and the Buyer’s sole right of recovery (if any) in excess of such US$ 1.00 cap on liability shall be pursuant to the W&I Policy; and

in respect of any such claims that are an Uninsured Claim, shall not exceed an amount equal to the Seller’s Proportionate Share of the Maximum Uninsured Liability Amount, and the Buyer’s right of recovery (if any) shall be; (i) if on or before the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date against the Retained Warranty Consideration, or (ii) if after the Retained Warranty Consideration Payment Date directly against the Sellers pursuant to the set-off procedure set out in Clause 14;

for all Claims:

in respect of any Claims that are not an Uninsured Claim, shall not exceed the amount of US$ 1.00, and the Buyer’s sole right of recovery (if any) in excess of the US$ 1.00 cap on liability shall be under the W&I Policy; and

in respect of any Claims that are an Uninsured Claim, shall not exceed an amount equal to the Seller’s Proportionate Share of the Maximum Uninsured Liability Amount, and the Buyer’s sole right of recovery (if any) in excess of the coverage under the W&I Policy shall be directly against the Sellers pursuant to the set-off procedure set out in Clause 14.

for any other claim against the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement or the Warranty Deed not otherwise captured in paragraphs 1.1(a) to (c) above, shall not exceed an amount equal to the amounts paid to that Seller pursuant to this Agreement (which shall be deemed to include any amounts which have been or, but for the provisions of this paragraph 1.1(d) would have been, set-off and retained by the Buyer in accordance with Clause 14), and the Buyer’s rights of recovery (if any) shall be against each of the Sellers directly pursuant to the set-off procedure set out in Clause 14, and/or directly against the relevant Seller in respect of an Executive Tax Indemnity Claim.

The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a Claim unless and until the aggregate amount of all Claims against the Sellers exceeds US$ [***] (including interest, costs, fines, penalties and surcharges) (the “Threshold”), in which event the Sellers’ liability shall be for the total amount of all Claims and shall not be limited to the amount in excess of the Threshold.

The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a Claim unless the amount of such Claim exceeds US$ [***] (including interest, costs, fines, penalties and surcharges).

For the purposes of calculating the Claims that count towards the Threshold, there shall be included in any Claim the amount of any costs, expenses and other liabilities incurred by the Buyer and any Target Group Company in connection with the making of any such Claim.

Without prejudice to any other provision of the Transaction Documents or this Schedule 4, the aggregate liability of each of the Sellers (whether in such capacity or in the capacity of Warrantor or otherwise) in respect of any claim under this Agreement and/or the Warranty Deed and/or any other Transaction Document (including any Claim, Fundamental Warranty Claim, Tax Warranty Claim or Tax Covenant Claim) shall not in aggregate exceed the amount of Consideration paid (which shall be deemed to include any amounts which have been, or but for the provisions of this paragraph 1.5 would have been, set-off and retained by the Buyer in accordance with Clause 14) to that Seller in cleared funds in accordance with this Agreement.

All provisions of paragraphs 1.1 and 1.2 of this Schedule 4 are subject to any adjustment specifically provided for in paragraph 3.2 of Schedule 3 of the Warranty Deed.

The Notice shall provide reasonable details (to the extent that such details are known to the Buyer) of the nature of any Claim, the circumstances that have given rise to it and, if practicable, the amount claimed (provided that any failure by the Buyer to provide any of such details shall not prejudice the Claim in question).

Following the giving of Notice under Paragraph 2.1(b), either:

where the Claim arises by reason of a liability of the Buyer or a member of the Target Group, that at the time of service of the notice, is contingent only or otherwise not capable of being quantified, the liability of the Sellers shall determine, if legal proceedings in respect of such Claim have not been commenced within [***] of such Claim ceasing to be contingent or becoming capable of being quantified; or

where the Claim does not fall within Paragraph 2.3(a) above, the liability of the Sellers shall determine, if legal proceedings have not been commenced within [***] of the service of such notice.
