Common use of Liability for retention arrangements Clause in Contracts

Liability for retention arrangements. The Seller or any other member of the Seller’s Group has or will put in place certain retention arrangements (in the form of cash) to retain key employees in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent that details of such retention arrangements are disclosed to the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date, and in respect of arrangements put in place after the date of this Agreement, with the agreement of the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchaser’s Group shall, make the cash retention payments when due to the relevant Transferred Employees on or after Closing and shall deduct and/or pay and account for any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such cash payments. The Seller covenants to reimburse the Purchaser in respect of any cash retention payments, whether or not disclosed (including any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such payments), which are put in place prior to the Closing Date. The Seller acknowledges that the Purchaser may ask the Seller to put in place more generous retention arrangements than those proposed by the Seller (including, where practicable, putting in place retention arrangements which last for a period of at least six months following Closing) and will not unreasonably withhold consent to such arrangements provided that any incremental cost of such arrangements over and above the cost of the Seller’s own proposals will be for the Purchaser’s account. The Seller will provide the Purchaser with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to allow such payments to be made.
