Implementation Arrangements Institutional Arrangements
Escrow Arrangements The Parties shall take all action required to cause the Escrow Agent to hold all funds deposited with or held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, including the Escrow Deposit and any interest or earnings accrued thereon (the "Escrow Funds"), until such time as they are to be released to the parties in accordance with this Section 3.4. The fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be borne equally by the Sellers on the one hand and Buyer on the other hand. The Parties shall promptly execute and deliver such instructions and other documents and take all other action as may be required to cause the Escrow Agent to release the Escrow Funds to the Parties as follows:
(a) Except as set forth in Section 3.4(d), within one Business Day after the earlier of (i) the date upon which a binding settlement or compromise of the Subject Litigation has been reached, which settlement or compromise provides for an unconditional release of the Company or any successor in interest identified by Buyer to Sellers (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) from any liability or obligation arising with respect to the Subject Litigation or (ii) the date upon which a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction has been entered to the effect that the Company or any such successor in interest is not subject to liability in respect of the Subject Litigation, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Sellers (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Seller Representative) an amount equal to $7,000,000, plus one half of all interest or earnings included in the Escrow Funds (or, if less, the total amount of remaining Escrow Funds not previously released in accordance with this Section 3.4) (the "Litigation Escrow Amount");
(b) Within one Business Day after the date upon which (A) Buyer, the Company or any such successor in interest to the Company pays or becomes unconditionally obligated to pay (whether as a result of any final judgment or arbitral award or as a result of any settlement to which the Sellers have granted their consent in accordance with Section 12.3) any Losses for which it is entitled to receive indemnification from Sellers under Section 12.1 arising from a Third Party Claim, including in respect of the Subject Litigation, or (B) Sellers become unconditionally obligated to pay to Buyer (whether by agreement of the Parties or as a result of an arbitral award entered in favor of Buyer) any Losses for which Buyer is entitled to receive indemnification from Sellers under Section 12.1 arising from a Claim other than a Third Party Claim, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Buyer (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Buyer) an amount equal to such Losses; and
(c) Except as set forth in Section 3.4(d), immediately upon the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Sellers (to such account or accounts as shall be designated by the Seller Representative) all remaining Escrow Funds, other than the Litigation Escrow Amount (which may only be released in accordance with the terms of Section 3.4(a) above).
(d) Notwithstanding Sections 3.4(a) and (c) above, the parties shall not be required to take action to cause the Escrow Agent to release Escrowed Funds to the Sellers in accordance with such provisions if Buyer shall have asserted good faith claims for indemnity under Section 12.1 which have not been finally resolved (the "Pending Claims"), to the extent that, after the release of such funds by the Escrow Agent as contemplated by Sections 3.4(a) or (c), the remaining Escrowed Funds held by the Escrow Agent would be insufficient to pay the amount necessary to cover Sellers' indemnification obligations in respect of such Pending Claims.
(e) If, in order to secure the release of any Escrowed Funds in accordance with this Section 3.4, it is necessary for Buyer on the one hand or Sellers on the other hand to commence arbitration proceedings in accordance with Section 14.9, the arbitrator may, if it determines that the other party or parties (the "Nonconsenting Party") failed or refused to take action to release all or part of the Escrowed Funds to the other party (the "Other Party") as required by this Agreement and did not have a good faith basis for such failure or refusal, order the Nonconsenting Party to pay to the Other Party an amount equal to the interest that would have accrued on the portion of the Escrowed Funds that would have been released but for the failure or refusal on the part of the Nonconsenting Party, at a rate at 10% per annum, for each day from and after the commencement of such failure or refusal until the date upon which applicable portion of the Escrowed Funds was actually released to the Other Party.
Other Contractual Arrangements [You may insert any other contractual arrangements the Parties to this Agreement wish to provide to govern the responsibilities, remuneration, liabilities, and indemnities for the duties of the Escrow Agent or any other matter which the Parties wish to include in this Agreement provided that the terms are not inconsistent with the Policy and the terms of this Agreement.]
Leasing Arrangements From the Effective Date through Closing (the "Contract Period"), without Purchaser's prior written consent in each instance, Seller will not amend or terminate any existing Lease or enter into any new Lease without Purchaser's prior written consent (which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion). Without limitation thereon, any and all Leases to be entered into during the Contract Period shall be on Seller's standard lease form delivered to Purchaser and otherwise on terms and conditions acceptable to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to grant or withhold its consent to any proposed Lease within five (5) days of receipt thereof, Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to such Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser's consent shall not be required with respect to any renewal Lease or consent to a sublease or assignment of Lease which Seller, as a matter of law or by a Lease, shall be required to deliver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller reserves the right, but is not obligated, to institute summary proceedings against any Tenant or terminate any Lease as a result of a default by the tenant thereunder prior to the Closing Date. Seller makes no representations and assumes no responsibility with respect to the continued occupancy of the Property or any part thereof by any Tenant. The removal of a Tenant prior to the Closing Date, whether by summary proceedings (or any written agreement accepting surrender or termination of the Lease subsequent to the commencement of such summary proceedings) or unilateral act of such Tenant, shall not give rise to any claim on the part of Purchaser; provided, however, Purchaser shall have the right within ten (10) days of the removal of any Tenant as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of any portion of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit previously tendered by Purchaser to the Escrow Agent, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate and the parties shall have no further rights and obligations to one another except for those obligations expressly stated herein to survive. If Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate pursuant to this Section 7.1(e) and Purchaser shall proceed to Closing without credit against, or reduction of, the Purchase Price.

Working Arrangements (i) The former industry practice whereby all Employees on site working in direct sunlight were relocated to shaded or air- conditioned areas when the temperature reached 32°C, will no longer operate.
(ii) At temperatures below 35°C workers are not to be relocated out of direct sunlight unless the work environment creates a serious risk to their health and safety, having regard to the nature of the tasks being undertaken, provided that the task or activity being performed is completed and the penalty provisions as for emergency work under the Award shall apply.
(iii) Once the temperature reaches 35°C work will cease, and workers may leave the site, provided that the task or activity being performed is completed and the penalty provisions as for emergency work under the Award shall apply.
(iv) During periods of hot weather, work in air-conditioned environments shall continue as normal. Workers will walk a reasonable distance through the open to and from amenities and the air-conditioned workspace, provided it does not pose a serious threat to their health or safety.
