WHEREAS:

(A)	The Buyer intends to acquire the Securities from the Sellers pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (as such terms are defined pursuant to Schedule 11).

(B)	This Agreement sets out the terms on which the Warrantors shall give certain Warranties to the Buyer in relation to the Group.

(C)	The Buyer has entered into the W&I Insurance Policy in respect of the Warranties.

THE PARTIES AGREE as follows:

1.	INTERPRETATION

1.1	The definitions and other provisions in Schedule 11 apply throughout this Agreement.

1.2	In this Agreement, unless the context indicates otherwise, a reference to a Clause, paragraph or Schedule is a reference to a Clause, paragraph or Schedule of this Agreement. The Schedules form part of this Agreement.

1.3	The headings in this Agreement do not affect its interpretation.

2.	WARRANTIES

2.1	Subject to the limitations set out in this Clause 2 and Clause 3, each of the Warrantors severally (but not jointly) warrants to the Buyer that each Warranty is true and accurate at the date of this Agreement.

2.2

Without prejudice to the foregoing and subject to the limitations set out in this Clause 2 and Clause 3, each Key Warrantor confirms that he or she has made due and careful enquiry of each other Key Warrantor prior to the execution of this Agreement into the matters which are the subject matter of the Warranties.

2.3	No Warrantor shall be under any liability under any of the Warranties in relation to any matter forming the subject matter of a claim thereunder to the extent that the same or the circumstances giving rise thereto are Disclosed in the Disclosed Information.

2.4

Any Claim shall be made against all the Warrantors. If the Buyer withdraws or settles a Claim against any of the Warrantors who are in breach, the Buyer shall (subject to the agreement to the contrary of the other Warrantors who are in breach) also withdraw or settle that Claim against or with the other Warrantors who are in breach on terms that are, so far as practicable, the same (having regard to the proportion of the Claim to be borne by each Warrantor in respect of the Claim in question).

2.5

The Escrow Sum or, if lower, such part of that principal sum plus any accrued interest thereon being available in the Escrow Account (after taking into account payments required to be made out of the Escrow Sum pursuant to Clause 4) shall be the sole recourse for the Buyer in respect of any and all Claims or other claims under this Agreement (other than an Excess Claim).

2.6	The liability of the Warrantors under this Agreement is a several and individual liability of each Warrantor (and not a joint or joint and several liability together with the other Warrantors).

2.7	The Buyer:

(a)

acknowledges and agrees that, without prejudice to the representations and warranties set out in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Warranties are the only warranties of any kind given by or on behalf of the Warrantors and on which the Buyer may rely in entering into the Transaction Documents;

(b)

acknowledges that, in agreeing to enter into the Transaction Documents, it has not relied on any express or implied representation, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance made by or on behalf of any Warrantor before the entering into of this Agreement, other than the representations and warranties set out in the Securities Purchase Agreement;

(c)

waives all rights and remedies which, but for this Clause 2.7, might otherwise be available to it in respect of any such express or implied representation, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance;

(d)

confirms that at the date of this Agreement, it is not actually aware of any matter or thing which would be a breach of the Warranties or constitutes a Claim, whereby the Buyer will be deemed actually aware if any of the persons listed in Schedule 9 is actually aware; and

(e)

acknowledges and agrees that the Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of a Claim if and to the extent that it relates to any liability or obligation on the part of a Group Company of which the Buyer is actually aware at the date of this Agreement, whereby the Buyer will be deemed actually aware if any of the persons listed in Schedule 9 is actually aware.

2.8	Nothing in Clauses 2, 3 or 4 limits or excludes any liability for fraud.

2.9	The Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)

without prejudice to Clause 2.8, neither the Buyer nor any member of the Buyer’s Group or any of their respective assignees or successors will have any recourse against the Warrantors for any Excess Claim;

(b)

neither any failure on the part of the Buyer’s Group to enter into, or to comply with the terms of, the W&I Insurance Policy, nor any unavailability of the W&I Insurance Policy or of

recourse thereunder for whatever reason, shall create or increase the Warrantors’ liability pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement beyond the express terms of this Agreement;

(c)

at the date of this Agreement, it shall deliver to the Warrantors evidence that the W&I Insurance Policy includes an express waiver from the W&I Insurers of any rights of subrogation that it might have against the Warrantors (except in the case of fraud or wilful concealment by the Warrantors); and

(d)

it shall not waive or agree to amend and shall procure that there is no waiver or amendment of the provisions of the W&I Insurance Policy pursuant to which the W&I Insurers waive any rights of subrogation it may have against the Warrantors.

2.10

The Warrantors undertake not to make any claim against a Group Company or a director, officer, consultant or employee of a Group Company that they may have in respect of a misrepresentation, inaccuracy or omission in or from information or advice provided by a Group Company or a director, officer, consultant or employee of a Group Company for the purpose of assisting the Warrantors to give a Warranty or populate the Data Room, other than in respect of a claim arising as a result of any fraud by a Group Company or a director, officer, consultant or employee of a Group Company.

the legality, validity or enforceability under the law of any other jurisdiction of that or any other provision of this Agreement.

Any amount payable by the Sellers to the Buyer shall be increased with any reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by any member of the Buyer’s Group in connection with the enforcement of Buyer’s right’s deriving from a breach, or to prevent, limit or assess any losses, including any reasonable and documented legal fees (other than (i) legal fees in relation to an internal investigation or audit for internal purposes and (ii) any member of the Buyer’s Group own officers, employees or other internal expenses).

4.	Notice of Claims

If the Buyer or any of the Group Companies becomes aware of a matter which is reasonably likely to give rise to a Claim, the Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of it unless the Buyer gives notice of the potential Claim (stating in reasonable detail the nature of the potential Claim and, to the extent available, the Buyer’s bona fide estimate of the amount claimed (detailing the Buyer’s calculation of the loss thereby alleged to have suffered)) to the Warrantors within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of those facts. Failure by the Buyer to give such notice within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of those facts shall not affect the Buyers’ right to make a Claim against the Warrantors in respect of such matter (or the Warrantors’ liability with respect to such Claim), except if and to the extent that the Warrantors have been prejudiced by such failure.

5.	Enforceability of Claims

A Claim notified in accordance with paragraph 4 and not satisfied, settled or withdrawn is unenforceable against the Warrantors on the expiry of the period of six (6) months starting on the day of notification of the Claim, unless proceedings in respect of the Claim have been properly issued and validly served on the Warrantors.

If a Claim (other than an Excess Claim) arises as a result of, or in connection with, a liability or alleged liability to a third party (a Third Party Claim), then:

(a)

the Buyer shall, upon becoming aware thereof, promptly advise the Warrantors’ Representative thereof (provided that failure by the Buyer to give such notice promptly shall not affect the Buyers’ right to make a Claim against the Warrantors in respect of such matter (or the Warrantors’ liability with respect to such Claim), except if and to the extent that the Warrantors have been prejudiced by such failure) and procure that the relevant Group Company makes available to the Warrantors’ Representative such persons and all such information as the Warrantors’ Representative may reasonably require to assess such Third Party Claim;

(b)

the Buyer shall procure that the relevant Group Company consults with (and takes into account any reasonable suggestions of) the Warrantors’ Representative in relation to the conduct of any appeal, dispute, compromise or defence of the Third Party Claim;

(c)

the Buyer shall, and shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall, keep the Warrantors’ Representative informed of the progress of the Third Party Claim; and

(d)

the Buyer shall, and shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall, not make any admission of liability, agreement, settlement or compromise in relation to the Third Party Claim (or any part thereof) without either (i) the prior written consent of the Warrantors’

Representative, which will not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed or (ii) irrevocably withdrawing such Claim.

8.	Mitigation

The Buyer shall and shall procure that the Group Companies take reasonable steps to mitigate any losses or damages. Nothing in this Schedule 4 restricts or limits the Buyer’s general obligation to mitigate any loss or damage that it may incur in consequence of a matter giving rise to a Claim.

9.	Recovery from Third Parties

If:

(a)

any Warrantor makes a payment in respect of a Claim (the Damages Payment); and

(b)

any Group Company or the Buyer receives any sum (or makes any savings or receives any quantifiable financial benefit) which would not have been received but for the circumstance which gave rise to that Claim (the Third Party Sum); and

(c)

the receipt of that sum was not taken into account in calculating the Damages Payment,

then the Buyer shall, promptly on receipt of the Third Party Sum by it or the relevant Group Company, repay to that Warrantor an amount equal to the lesser of the Damages Payment and the Third Party Sum, after deducting (in either case) all costs incurred by the Buyer or the relevant Group Company in recovering that sum and any taxation payable by the Buyer or any Group Company by virtue of its receipt.

If, before a Warrantor pays any amount in respect of any Claim under this Agreement, the Buyer or any Group Company actually recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, insurance or otherwise) from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates the Buyer or the relevant Group Company (in whole or in part) in respect of the loss or liability which is the subject matter of the Claim, such recovery shall reduce or satisfy, as the case may be, such Claim to the extent of such recovery. The Warrantors shall be subrogated to all rights that the Buyer has or would otherwise have in respect of the claim against the third party.

10.

Insurance

Without prejudice to the Buyer’s duty to mitigate any loss in respect of any of the Warranties being untrue or inaccurate, if, in respect of any matter which would otherwise give rise to a Claim, any Group Company recovers under any policy of insurance, then the amount of insurance monies that the Group Company actually receives shall reduce pro tanto or extinguish the Claim. After Completion and until the expiration of the time period set forth in paragraph 3 of this Schedule 4, the Buyer shall either maintain operational business insurance maintained as of the date hereof by the Group and Disclosed in the Data Room or obtain (or cause the relevant Group Company to obtain) operational business insurance coverage that, overall, provides coverage to the Group substantially similar (or greater) to the operational business insurance coverage maintained by them on the date of this Agreement and Disclosed in the Data Room.

11.

Contingent Liabilities

If any Claim is based upon a liability which is contingent only, no Warrantor shall have any obligation to make a payment in respect thereof unless (and until) such contingent liability becomes an actual liability provided that in respect of such contingent liability (and without prejudice to the obligation of the Buyer to notify such Claim in accordance with paragraph 4 above), the time limit

for the commencement of proceedings in respect of any such Claim set out in paragraph 5 above shall be extended to six (6) months from the date that the contingent liability becomes an actual liability.

12.

Preservation of Information

The Buyer shall, and shall ensure that the Group Companies will, preserve all documents, records, correspondence, accounts and other information whatsoever relevant to a matter which gives rise to a Claim.

13.

Double Recovery

The Buyer shall not be entitled to recover from the Warrantors more than once in respect of any one matter even if more than one Warranty is breached.

14.
