the payer shall be obliged to pay to the recipient such additional amounts as will ensure that the recipient receives, in total, an amount which (after such deduction or withholding has been made) is no more and no less than it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a deduction or withholding, provided that if a party shall have transferred (for the avoidance of doubt, by whatever means, including by way of a declaration of trust or anything that amounts in substance to a transfer) the benefit in whole or in part of this Agreement or shall have changed its tax residence or the permanent establishment to which the rights under this Agreement are allocated or any affiliate or person with an interest in a party shall have transferred its rights under this Agreement or its interest in the party or changed its tax residence or the permanent establishment to which its rights under this Agreement or its interest in the party are allocated then the liability of the other party under this Clause 13.10.1 shall be limited to that (if any) which it would have been had no such transfer or change taken place.

If the recipient of a payment made under this Agreement (or any affiliate of or person with an interest in such recipient) obtains a refund of or obtains and utilises a credit for any Taxation payable by it or similar benefit by reason of any deduction or withholding for or on account of Taxation then it shall reimburse to the payer such part of such additional amounts paid pursuant to Clause 13.10.1 as the recipient of the payment certifies to the payer will leave it (together with any affiliate of or person with an interest it) (after such reimbursement) in no better and no worse position than would have arisen if the payer had not been required to make such deduction or withholding.


13.10.4	Subject to Clause 4.1.5, where any payment is made or to be made under this Agreement pursuant to an indemnity, compensation or reimbursement provision (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any reimbursement made pursuant to Clause 13.10.3) then the sum payable shall be adjusted to such sum as will ensure that:


(i)	after payment of any Taxation charged on such sum in the hands of the recipient (or any affiliate of or person with an interest in such recipient) (including any Taxation which would have been charged in the absence of any Reliefs); and


(ii)	after giving credit for any Relief that is or will be available to the recipient (or any affiliate of or person with an interest in such recipient) in respect of the matter giving rise to the payment,

the recipient shall be left with a sum equal to the sum that it would have received in the absence of such a charge to Taxation or Relief provided first that the reference in this Clause 13.10.4 to a Relief shall include any saving of Taxation which is the subject of Clause 4.1.5 and provided secondly that if a party shall have transferred (for the avoidance of doubt, by whatever means, including by way of a declaration of trust or anything that amounts in substance to a transfer) the benefit in whole or in part of this Agreement or shall have changed its tax residence or the permanent establishment to which the rights under this Agreement are allocated (or any affiliate of or person with an interest in a party shall have transferred its rights under this Agreement or its interest in the party or changed its tax residence or the permanent establishment to which its rights under this Agreement or its interest in the party are allocated) then the liability of the other party under this Clause 13.10.4 shall be limited to that (if any) which it would have been had no such transfer or change taken place.


13.10.5	Clause 13.10.4 shall not apply if and to the extent that the amount of the indemnity, compensation or reimbursement payment has already been adjusted to take account of the Taxation that will or would be charged on receipt or relief that is or will be available in respect of the matter giving rise to the payment.


13.10.6	Should the Purchaser consider that it is required by law so to withhold amounts from the Purchase Price which fall within Clause 13.10.1(ii), the Purchaser will:

(ii)	provide the Seller with a reasonable opportunity to provide such forms or other evidence that would eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding; and


(iii)	cooperate in good faith with the Seller to reduce or eliminate such deduction or withholding.
