The Sellers’ Representatives have delivered to Purchaser (i) a written statement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule 3 (the “Estimated Completion Statement”) setting forth (A) the Sellers’ Representatives’ good faith estimate of Working Capital as of Completion (“Estimated Working Capital”) (prepared in accordance with the Working Capital Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B), (B) the Sellers’ Representatives’ good faith estimate of the aggregate amount of all Cash of the Company as of Completion (“Estimated Cash”), (C) the Sellers’ Representatives’ good faith estimate of the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness of the Company as of Completion (“Estimated Indebtedness”), (D) the Sellers’ Representatives’ good faith estimate of the aggregate amount of all Transaction Expenses as of Completion (“Estimated Transaction Expenses”), together with a statement setting forth the amount and payee for each item of Estimated Transaction Expenses, along with wire transfer instructions for each payee thereof (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses Statement”), and (E) the resulting calculation of the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, and (ii) Schedule 1 reflecting the portion of the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price to be paid to each Seller after taking into account the estimates described in the foregoing clauses (i)(A) through (i)(E), together with the portions of any Deferred Payments that each Seller is entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement, and in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), with reasonable supporting or underlying documentation used in the preparation thereof. Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives have in good faith discussed and attempted to resolve prior to the Completion Date any objections Purchaser may have raised with respect to the Estimated Completion Statement; provided that if any such objections have been resolved prior to the Completion Date, then the Estimated Completion Statement shall not be modified and, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.6(a) shall impact or limit the remaining provisions of this Section 2.6.

(c)Disputed Final Adjustment.

(i)No later than thirty (30) days following the delivery by Purchaser of both the Completion Statement and the reasonable supporting or underlying documentation used in the preparation thereof, the Sellers’ Representatives shall notify Purchaser in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses. During such thirty (30) day period, the Sellers’ Representatives and their agents shall be provided with reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to the relevant financial books and records of the Company as well as any relevant work papers as they may reasonably request to enable them to evaluate the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses prepared by Purchaser. If the Sellers’ Representatives accept the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and Actual Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b), or the Sellers’ Representatives fail within such thirty (30) day period to notify Purchaser of any dispute with respect thereto, then the calculation of Actual Working Capital determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be the “Final Working Capital,” the calculation of Actual Cash determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be the “Final Cash,” the calculation of Actual Indebtedness determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be the “Final Indebtedness” and the calculation of Actual Transaction Expenses determined pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be the “Final Transaction Expenses,” which, in each case, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon all parties in all respects.

(ii)If the Sellers’ Representatives disputes the accuracy of the calculation of any or all of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness or Actual Transaction Expenses, the Sellers’ Representatives shall provide written notice to Purchaser no later than thirty (30) days following the delivery by Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representatives of both the calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness or Actual Transaction Expenses and the reasonable supporting or underlying documentation used in the preparation thereof (the “Dispute Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such dispute(s), the amount(s) involved and the Sellers’ Representatives’ proposed adjustment(s) to the Completion Statement with reasonable supporting documentation. During the thirty (30) day period following delivery of the Dispute Notice, Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives shall negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving their disagreements over the disputed items. During such thirty (30) day period and until the final determination of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and/or Actual Transaction Expenses in accordance with this Section 2.6(c)(ii) or Section 2.6(c)(iii), as the case may be (as so determined, or as determined pursuant to Section 2.6(c)(i) above, “Final Working Capital”, “Final Cash,” “Final Indebtedness” and “Final Transaction Expenses,” respectively), the Sellers’ Representatives and their agents shall be provided with reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to the relevant financial books and records of the Company as they may reasonably request to enable them to address all matters set forth in any Dispute Notice. If the parties resolve their differences over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and/or Final Transaction Expenses shall be the amount agreed upon by them. If the parties fail to resolve their differences over the

disputed items within such thirty (30) day period, then Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives shall forthwith refer any matter in dispute to: (i) such reputable independent firm of UK chartered accountants as shall be jointly nominated by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives; or (ii) failing nomination within ten (10) days after a request for joint nomination by either of them, such reputable independent firm of chartered accountants as is nominated at the request of either Purchaser or the Sellers’ Representatives by the president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and shall make a binding determination as to the items disputed under this Section 2.6(c) in accordance with this Agreement.

(iii)The Accounting Firm will under the terms of its engagement have no more than thirty (30) days from the date of referral and no more than ten (10) Business Days from the final submission of information and testimony by Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives within which to render its written decision with respect to the disputed items (and only with respect to any unresolved disputed items set forth in the Dispute Notice) and the final calculation of Actual Working Capital, Actual Cash, Actual Indebtedness and/or Actual Transaction Expenses shall be based solely on the resolution of such disputed items. The Accounting Firm shall review such submissions and base its determination solely on such submissions. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value for such item claimed by either party or less than the minimum value for such item claimed by either party. Save in the case of manifest error, the decision of the Accounting Firm shall be deemed final and binding upon the parties and enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and the Accounting Firm’s final calculation of Actual Working Capital shall be deemed the “Final Working Capital,” the Accounting Firm’s final calculation of Actual Cash shall be deemed the “Final Cash,” the Accounting Firm’s final calculation of Actual Indebtedness shall be deemed the “Final Indebtedness” and/or the Accounting Firm’s final calculation of Actual Transaction Expenses shall be deemed the “Final Transaction Expenses” (in each case, as applicable). The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by Purchaser on the one hand, and the Sellers’ Representatives (on behalf of the Sellers), on the other, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Accounting Firm.

(d)Payment following Calculation of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses.

(i)Following the determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses, (A) the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price shall be recalculated by substituting the Final Working Capital for the Estimated Working Capital, the Final Cash for the Estimated Cash, and the Final Transaction Expenses for the Estimated Transaction Expenses, and (B) as applicable, (1) the amount, if any, by which the Final Indebtedness exceeds the Estimated Indebtedness shall be deducted from the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, as so recalculated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (A), or (2) the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Indebtedness exceeds the Final Indebtedness shall be added to the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, as so recalculated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (A) (the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price as so recalculated pursuant to the

immediately preceding clause (A), plus or minus the adjustment for Final Indebtedness pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (B), shall be referred to herein as the “Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price”). If the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price is greater than the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price on the Completion Date, then Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Sellers an aggregate amount in cash equal to the sum of (A) the difference between the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price and the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, and (B) the Holdback Amount, such amount to be allocated amongst the Sellers in accordance with the percentages set forth in Schedule 1 and paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6(d)(ii). If the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price on the Completion Date is greater than the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, then (X) the Holdback Amount shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price and the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price (the “Shortfall Amount”), (Y) the Shortfall Amount shall not be released from the Holdback Fund but shall be retained by Purchaser as a reduction to the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, and (Z) the amount, if any, by which the Holdback Amount exceeds the Shortfall Amount shall be released from the Holdback Fund and paid, or caused to be paid, by Purchaser, with such amount to be allocated amongst the Sellers in accordance with the percentages set forth in Schedule 1 and paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6(d)(ii).

(ii)Any payment required to be made to the Paying Agent (for the benefit of the Sellers) by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.6(d) (any such payment, an “Initial Purchase Price Adjustment Payment”) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Paying Agent Account, and shall be made on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day following the final determination of Final Working Capital, Final Cash, Final Indebtedness and Final Transaction Expenses pursuant to Section 2.6(c). The Paying Agent is hereby irrevocably authorised to receive any Initial Purchase Price Adjustment Payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.6(d)(ii), and payment thereof to the Paying Agent Account shall be a good and full discharge of any obligation to pay such Initial Purchase Price Adjustment Payment pursuant to this Section 2.6(d)(ii), and Purchaser shall not be concerned as to the split of such portion of the Initial Purchase Price Adjustment Payment between the relevant Sellers.

2.7Holdback. The parties acknowledge and agree that, at Completion, Purchaser shall withhold payment of the Holdback Amount as a reduction to the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price (as set forth in clause (v) of the definition of “Aggregate Initial Purchase Price”) (the “Holdback Fund”), to be retained by Purchaser solely for the purposes of securing the obligations of the Sellers for any amount that becomes due to Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.6(d).

2.8No Duplication. The parties acknowledge and agree that in order to avoid duplication, no individual item or amount shall be taken into account more than once in the calculation of each of the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price and/or the Adjusted Aggregate Initial Purchase Price, as calculated and determined in accordance with this Article 2 (it being understood and agreed that the intent of this Section 2.8 is solely to avoid duplication or “double counting”).

2.9Withholding. Each party shall make all payments under this Agreement without withholding or deduction of, or in respect of, any Tax unless required by law. Any amounts withheld or deducted shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.10Currency. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any amount in a currency other than pounds sterling shall, to the extent that it is required, in whole or in part, to be expressed in pounds sterling in order to give full effect to this Agreement, be deemed for that purpose to have been converted into pounds sterling at the mid-market spot rate of the relevant currency for the purchase or sale of pounds sterling (rounded to two (2) decimal places) as applicable, as reported in the Financial Times (London, England edition), on the date of payment or calculation.

Each Specified Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Specified Seller will receive significant consideration in exchange for such Specified Seller’s Shares and, as such, will benefit from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) it would be detrimental to Purchaser and the Company if such Specified Seller, directly or indirectly, were to breach any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.9 that are applicable to such Specified Seller, and (iii) such Specified Seller’s agreement to be bound by the covenants contained in this Section 6.9 that are applicable to such Specified Seller are integral to the terms on which Purchaser has agreed to purchase the Shares and are necessary for the implementation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the payment by Purchaser of a portion of the Final Purchase Price to such Specified Seller.

6.10Release and Waiver.

(a)Effective as of Completion, each Specified Seller, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, agents, representatives, heirs, beneficiaries, executors, trustees, administrators, successors and assigns (each, a “Releasing Party”), hereby unconditionally and irrevocably and forever releases and discharges the Company, Purchaser and each of their respective successors and assigns, and any present or former directors, managers, officers, employees or agents of such Persons (each, a “Released Party”), of and from, and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, any and all claims, debts, losses, expenses, proceedings, covenants, liabilities, suits, judgments, damages, actions and causes of action, obligations, accounts, and liabilities of any kind or character whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, in contract, direct or indirect, at law or in equity that such party ever had, now has or ever may have or claim to have against any Released Party, for or by reason of any matter, circumstance, event, action, inaction, omission, cause or thing whatsoever arising prior to Completion arising out of or relating to such Specified Seller’s ownership of Shares, including each and any investment or similar agreement whereby such Specified Seller acquired Shares from the Company; provided, however, that the Releasing Parties expressly do not release and discharge their rights and interests (i) under this Agreement or any ancillary agreements hereto, (ii) with respect to claims, actions, causes of action or any liabilities that arise as a result of any fraud, fraudulent concealment or willful misconduct by a Released Party, (iii) with respect to any Releasing Party who is a director, employee, contractor or consultant of the Company, (A) earned wages that remain unpaid as of Completion, (B) reimbursements for business expenses incurred and documented in compliance with the Company’s policies in effect immediately prior to Completion, or (C) unreimbursed claims under employee health and welfare plans, consistent with the terms of coverage, or (iv) any rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or exculpation existing in favor of any Releasing Party under the organizational documents of the Company, under any written agreement with the Company that was in effect on the date hereof, under any statute or other applicable law, or benefits under any directors and officers insurance policy maintained by the Company in connection with such Releasing Party’s status as a present or former director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Company. Effective as of Completion, each Specified Seller, on behalf of itself and each applicable Releasing Party, expressly waives all rights afforded by any statute which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims. Each Specified Seller, acting on behalf of itself and each applicable Releasing Party, understands the significance of this release of such unknown claims applicable to this Section 6.10 and waiver of statutory protection against a release of such unknown claims,

and acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is an essential and material term of this Agreement. Each Specified Seller, on behalf of itself and each applicable Releasing Party, acknowledges that Purchaser will be relying on the waiver and release provided in this Section 6.10 in connection with entering into this Agreement and that this Section 6.10 is intended for the benefit of, and grants third party rights to each of Purchaser’s Affiliates to enforce this Section 6.10.

6.11Transition Services. From and after Completion, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the Company to perform, the services described on Schedule 4 attached hereto, in each case upon the terms (including with respect to compensation of Purchaser and/or the Company) and subject to the conditions set forth on Schedule 4.

6.12Matters Relating to EMI Options.

(a)From and after Completion, the Sellers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and the Company in respect of all Taxes, costs, charges and expenses that incurred by the Purchaser or the Company as a consequence of any actions taken at the request of the Sellers’ Representatives in accordance with Section 6.12(b) below and the Purchaser shall retain the EMI Share Option Holdback (as a reduction to the Aggregate Initial Purchase Price) solely for the purposes of securing the obligations of the Sellers for any amount that becomes due to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.12.

(b)If at any time after Completion, Purchaser or the Company becomes aware of an EMI Options Claim, the Purchaser shall give or procure that notice in writing is given to the Sellers’ Representatives as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof, provided that the failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall not eliminate or otherwise limit the Sellers’ indemnification obligations under this Section 6.12 except to the extent that the Sellers are actually and materially prejudiced thereby. Subject to the Sellers indemnifying the Purchaser and Company in accordance with Section 6.12(a), the Purchaser shall (i) take (or cause the Company to take) such action as the Sellers’ Representatives may reasonably request in writing to avoid, dispute, resist, mitigate, compromise or defend any EMI Options Claim, (ii) not (and procure that the Company shall not) agree to any compromise or settlement, or make any admission of liability or payment, in relation to any EMI Options Claim without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representatives (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (iii) if requested by the Sellers’ Representatives in writing, delegate the conduct of any legal proceedings in respect of any EMI Options Claim to the Sellers. For this purpose, the Purchaser shall, at the Sellers’ sole cost and expense, (x) retain or cause the Company to retain, at the Sellers’ sole cost and expense, such firm of solicitors as is selected by the Sellers’ Representatives to act on behalf of the Purchaser and/or the Company (as the case may be) and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser in relation to such EMI Options Claim in accordance with the Sellers’ Representatives’ instructions, and (y) provide such information and assistance as the Sellers’ Representatives or the appointed solicitors may reasonably require in connection with the defense, settlement or compromise of such EMI Options Claim.

(c)The obligations of the Sellers to indemnify Purchaser and the Company pursuant to this Section 6.12 shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to any EMI Options Claim, plus sixty (60) days.

(d)The Purchaser shall by no later than 31 July 2023 pay to the Paying Agent (for the benefit of the Sellers to be allocated amongst them in accordance with the percentages set forth in Schedule 1) the amount (if any) of the EMI Share Options Holdback which has not been used to satisfy the obligations of the Sellers pursuant to this Section 6.12 during the period from Completion until 31 July 2023.

Article 7

MISCELLANEOUS

7.1Sellers’ Representatives.

(a)The Sellers have agreed that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (acting jointly) shall be constituted and appointed as the Sellers’ Representatives, and act jointly on behalf of all of the Sellers for the purposes specified herein. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Sellers’ Representatives” shall mean the representatives, true and lawful agents, proxies and attorneys in fact of the Sellers for all purposes of this Agreement, with full power and authority on each such Sellers’ behalf, as applicable (i) to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, (ii) to pay such Seller’s expenses (whether incurred on or after the date hereof) incurred in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement, (iii) to receive, give receipt and disburse any funds received hereunder on behalf of or to such Seller and each other Seller and to hold back from disbursement any such funds to the extent it reasonably determines may be necessary, (iv) to execute and deliver any certificates representing the Shares and execution of such further instruments as Purchaser shall reasonably request, (v) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Seller all documents contemplated herein and any amendment or waiver hereto, (vi) to take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of such Seller in connection herewith, (vii) to negotiate, settle, compromise and otherwise handle all disputes under this Agreement, including without limitation, disputes regarding any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6, (viii) to give and receive notices on behalf of the Sellers, and (ix) to do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Seller is, or the Sellers collectively are, permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement. The Sellers, by approving the principal terms of this Agreement and/or accepting the consideration payable to them hereunder, irrevocably grant unto said attorney-in-fact and agent full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing necessary or desirable to be done in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as fully to all intents and purposes as the Sellers might or could do in person. Each of the Sellers agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Sellers’ Representatives and shall survive the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of any Seller.

(b)All decisions, actions, consents and instructions of the Sellers’ Representatives shall be taken jointly and shall be final and binding upon all the Sellers and no Seller shall have any right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same, except for fraud, fraudulent concealment or willful misconduct. Neither the Sellers’ Representatives nor any agent employed by the Sellers’ Representatives shall incur any liability to any Seller relating

to the performance of its duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud, fraudulent concealment or willful misconduct. The Sellers’ Representatives shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Seller, except in respect of amounts actually received on behalf of such Seller. The Sellers’ Representatives shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Sellers set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Sellers’ Representatives under this Section 7.1.

(c)The Sellers shall cooperate with the Sellers’ Representatives and any accountants, attorneys or other agents whom the Sellers’ Representatives may retain to assist in carrying out Sellers’ Representatives’ duties hereunder. The Sellers shall reimburse the Sellers’ Representatives for all costs and expenses, including professional fees, incurred.

(d)In the event that either or both of the Sellers’ Representatives become unable to perform the Sellers’ Representatives’ responsibilities or resign from such position, the Sellers holding, prior to Completion, a majority of Shares, voting together as a single class, shall select one or more other representative to fill such vacancy and such substituted representative(s) shall (i) be deemed to be the Sellers’ Representatives for all purposes of this Agreement, and (ii) exercise the rights and powers of, and be entitled to the indemnity, reimbursement and other benefits of, the Sellers’ Representatives.

(e)Purchaser shall have the right to conclusively and absolutely rely without investigation or inquiry upon all actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representatives pursuant to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any other documents, certificates or instruments delivered by the Company in connection herewith or therewith, all of which actions or omissions shall be legally binding upon the Sellers. Any document or notice delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, from and after Completion, the Company) to, or action taken by or on behalf of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, from and after Completion, the Company), with respect to, the Sellers’ Representatives shall be deemed to have been delivered, or taken with respect, to all Sellers. Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, from and after Completion, the Company) shall have no liability to any Seller for any acts or omissions of the Sellers’ Representatives (including in respect of any fees or expenses incurred by the Sellers’ Representatives) or any failure to deliver amounts paid to the Sellers’ Representatives on behalf of any Seller, or any acts or omissions taken or not taken by Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, from and after Completion, the Company) or any other Person at the direction of, or in reliance on, the Sellers’ Representatives. Other than for the Sellers’ Representatives’ breach of this Agreement, Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that the Seller’s Representatives shall not be liable, in such capacity, for any claims that Purchaser asserts in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or any transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder.

7.2Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by each Seller and Purchaser. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement will be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations

of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provisions, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

7.3Notices. All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered to Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representatives or any Seller under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given when personally delivered, one (1) Business Day after being sent by reputable overnight courier (with a copy transmitted by email) or when transmitted by e-mail (with transmission confirmed), in each case as appropriate to the addresses indicated below (unless another address is so specified by the applicable party in writing):

This Section 7.3 does not apply to the service of any proceedings or other documents in any legal action among the parties hereto.

7.4Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and their respective successors, estates, personal representatives and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any rights, benefits or obligations set forth herein may be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representatives, and any attempted assignment without such prior written consent shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Purchaser may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates, and (b) Purchaser may assign or grant any Lien on its rights under this Agreement by way of security in favor of any person who has agreed at any time to provide finance to Purchaser to assist in or refinance the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and/or to any agent or trustee of such person for the time being, in each case provided that: (i) any such assignee or grantee shall not be entitled to assign such rights other than by way of the enforcement or release of such security; and (ii) the liability of any party to such an assignee or grantee shall not be greater than it would have been had such an assignment and/or grant not taken place.

7.5Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

7.6No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Person. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and article, section, paragraph and schedule references are to the articles, sections, paragraphs and schedules of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The words describing the singular number shall include the plural and vice versa, words denoting any gender shall include any other gender and words denoting natural persons shall include all persons and vice versa. The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof,” “of even date herewith” and terms of similar import shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. The word “including” or any variation thereof means “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires, references to agreements and other documents shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments and other modifications thereto. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires, references to statutes shall include all regulations promulgated thereunder. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Any reference to any particular code section or any other law will be interpreted to include any revision of or successor to that section regardless of how it is numbered or classified. Whenever this Agreement requires that a document or item be “made available” or “provided” to Purchaser as of or prior to the date hereof, it shall mean that such

document or item has been made available to Purchaser and its representatives in the electronic data room maintained in connection with this Agreement at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement. For all purposes of this Agreement, a first negative number shall be “greater than” a second negative number to the extent the first negative number is closer to the number zero (0) than the second negative number, and a first negative number shall be “less than” a second negative number to the extent that the first negative number is further away from the number zero (0) than the second negative number. Any references in this Agreement to any law of the United Kingdom shall be read and construed as also meaning any law of any other jurisdiction that has an equivalent purpose, and references to any United Kingdom legal term for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, legal document, legal status, court, official, or any legal concept or thing shall in respect of any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom be deemed to include what most nearly approximates in that jurisdiction the United Kingdom legal term.

7.7Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

7.8No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement no term of this Agreement is enforceable under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ by any Person who is not a party.

7.9Complete Agreement. This Agreement, including the schedules and the exhibits hereto, together with the other documents and instruments referred to herein, constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

7.10Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

7.11Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Purchaser, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representatives, as applicable, in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by Purchaser, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representatives, as applicable. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, without any requirement to post or provide any bond or other security in connection therewith, to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Purchaser, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representatives, as applicable, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof against Purchaser, the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representatives, as applicable, in any court having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the parties hereto are entitled at law or in equity.

7.12Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with English law. Any and all disputes, whether sounding in contract, tort, or statute, shall be governed by English law, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any conflict-of-laws or other rule that would result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, over any suit, action or other proceeding brought by any party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be heard and determined in such courts. In the event of any such litigation regarding or arising from this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to

recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable expenses, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred therein or in enforcement or collection of any judgment or award rendered therein.

7.13Reasonableness. Each party confirms that it has received independent legal advice relating to all of the matters provided for in the Transaction Documents, and agrees for the purposes of the Misrepresentation ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ and the Unfair ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ that the provisions of each Transaction Document are fair and reasonable.

7.14Separate and Independent Representations and Warranties; Sellers’ Liability. Each of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement is separate and independent. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any covenant, undertaking, representation, warranty, or other obligation given or assumed by more than one Seller in this Agreement is given or assumed by each such Seller severally. The aggregate liability of Sellers in respect of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement shall not in any circumstances exceed £1; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.14 is intended or shall be deemed to have the effect of eliminating, limiting or restricting in any way any person’s rights or remedies in the event of fraud, fraudulent concealment or willful misconduct.

7.15Power of Attorney.

(a)With effect upon and from Completion, each Seller irrevocably appoints Purchaser (acting by any of its officers from time to time) as his, her or its attorney to exercise all rights in relation to, or that are exercisable by the registered holder of the Shares sold by it as Purchaser in its absolute discretion thinks fit, including (but not limited to):

(i)receiving notices of, executing consents to short notice for, appointing proxies for, and attending speaking and voting at, any general meeting and/or class meeting of the Company (including any adjourned meeting);

(ii)receiving and approving any shareholder or class written resolutions;

(iii)exercising the right to convene a general meeting and/or require the circulation of a shareholders or class written resolution;

(iv)giving directions in relation to and otherwise dealing with distributions, other benefits, documents, notices or other communications (in whatever form) arising from or relating to the Shares sold by such Seller, declared, made, paid, issued or received after the date of this Agreement; and

(v)otherwise executing, delivering all deeds and documents and undertaking all acts in such Seller’s name to the extent they may lawfully be done in such Seller’s capacity as the registered holder of the relevant Shares sold by such Seller.

(b)With effect upon and from Completion, Purchaser may:

(i)delegate one or more of the powers conferred on Purchaser by the power of attorney set out in Section 7.15(a) (other than the power to delegate) to an officer or

officers appointed for that purpose by the board of directors of Purchaser, by resolution or otherwise and vary or revoke such delegation at any time; and

(ii)appoint one or more persons to act as substitute attorney for each Seller and to exercise one or more of the powers conferred on Purchaser by this power of attorney and revoke any such appointment.

(c)With effect upon and from Completion, each Seller undertakes:

(i)not to exercise any power conferred on Purchaser by it under this power of attorney without Purchaser’s consent;

(ii)to hold the Shares on trust for Purchaser as beneficial owner and to promptly account to Purchaser for any distributions received by such Seller in its capacity as the registered holder of the Shares sold by such Seller; and

(iii)to ratify and confirm whatever Purchaser does or purports to do in good faith in exercising the powers conferred by this power of attorney.

(d)The power of attorney in Section 7.15(a) shall expire upon the relevant Seller ceasing to be a member of the Company by virtue of the registration of Purchaser (or its nominee) as the holder of the relevant Shares in the Company's register of members.

(e)The appointment of Purchaser as attorney pursuant to Section 7.15(a) is given as security for the proprietary interest of Purchaser as buyer of the Shares and until expiry in accordance with Section 7.15(d), this power of attorney shall be irrevocable except with written consent of Purchaser.
