will (i) at no time after the Closing disclose to any person, or use for any purpose (a) any information concerning the Business, accounts or finances of the Group Companies, (b) any information relating to the Group Companies’ clients, agents, consultants or affairs of which such Seller has knowledge; except in all cases if required by law or if reasonably required by a Seller for his own use and (ii) use his best endeavors to prevent the publication or disclosure by an Affiliate of the information described in letters (a) and (b) above after the Closing;

will not for two (2) years from the Closing Date, either on his own account or for any other person, directly or indirectly (including through an Affiliate), hire, solicit or endeavor to entice away from any Group Company as then constituted, any person who is, or has during the immediately preceding two years been, a client or employee of, or in the habit of dealing with such Group Company; and

for the period set out in Section 5.1(b) above he will not, alone, or jointly with, or as manager, agent for, or employee of any person, or as a shareholder (except as shareholder of a listed company with an interest of 5% or less in such listed company), directly or indirectly (including through an Affiliate), carry on or be engaged, concerned or interested in (a) the Business; or (b) any business competitive with the Business as carried on by the Group Companies at the date of this Agreement.

5.2

Breach of Covenant Not to Compete and Not to Solicit

Each Seller recognizes that the activities prohibited by Sections 5.1(b) and 5.1(c) may result in irreparable damage and harm to the Purchaser and therefore each Seller agrees to pay a penalty amount (as may be provided pursuant to Article 160 of the Swiss Code of Obligations) of CHF 1,000,000 for each breach or violation of his obligation under Section 5.1(b) and 5.1(c).

The Purchaser shall not, by seeking or obtaining such relief, be deemed to have precluded itself from obtaining any other relief to which it may be entitled.

5.3

Post-Closing Covenant by the Purchaser

The Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, claims, judgment costs and expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred by the Purchaser by reason of or resulting from (i) a breach of or inaccuracy in the Sellers’ representations and warranties contained in Section 4.2 or (ii) a breach of any of the Sellers’ covenants contained in this Agreement. The Parties agree that any damages arising from a decrease of the share price of Bottomline Technologies, Inc. shall not be considered as damages indemnified by the Sellers in accordance with this Section 6.

The indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement shall supersede the provisions of the CO (including articles 200, 201 and 210).

With respect to any indemnification to be paid after Closing, the Purchaser shall have the right to seek payment from the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, where any claim by the Purchaser is admitted by the Sellers or recognized by a final award and, if the Sellers’ liability exceeds the amount held on the Escrow Account, to claim from the Sellers to pay the amount of such excess either to the Purchaser or directly to any Group Company, subject to the terms of this Section 6.

Any payment made by the Sellers under this Section 6 shall be considered as a reduction of the Purchase Price.

- 32 -

6.2

Indemnification by the Purchaser

The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, claims, judgments, costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Sellers by reason of or resulting from a breach of or inaccuracy in the Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1 of this Agreement or from a breach of any of the Purchaser’s covenants contained in this Agreement.

6.3

Deductions from Payments

All sums payable under this Section 6 shall be paid free and clear of all deductions, withholdings, Taxes, whatsoever, except as may be required by law.

If any deductions or withholdings are required by law to be made from any of the sums payable under this Section 6, the paying party shall be obliged to pay the receiving party such sum as will, after the deduction or withholding has been made, leave the receiving party with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a deduction or withholding.

If any Taxes shall be payable by the receiving party on any sum payable under this Section 6, the paying party shall be obliged to pay to the receiving party such sum as will, after the payment of such Taxes has been made by the receiving party, leave the receiving party with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to pay Taxes.

Such payments under this clause 6.3 shall be paid within 30 Business Days of written demand for payment being made.

- 33 -

6.4

Limitation in Time, Notification Requirement

A Party may request indemnification as provided in this Section 6 or claim for breach of a warranty contained in Section 4 during a period of eighteen (18) months from the Closing Date, with the exception of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.2.14 (Taxes) which shall expire ten (10) years from the Closing Date. The above periods are collectively referred to as the “Indemnification Periods” and each an “Indemnification Period.”

A Party shall notify the other Parties expeditiously and in any event no later than within 90 (ninety) days (the “Notice Period”) upon discovery of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant with reasonable certainty (a “Notice”). Any Notice shall describe the alleged breach of representation, warranty or covenant and the allegedly incurred damages in reasonable detail. The other Parties shall have the right to remedy or mitigate any damages within 60 (sixty) days from receipt of the Notice.

A Party’s failure to deliver a Notice in respect of an alleged claim within the Notice Period shall not relieve the other Parties from any liability that they have except if and to the extent that the other Parties shall have been materially prejudiced thereby either because the damages have increased or the notifying Party has failed to take reasonable steps to mitigate the damages.

If a Party fails to initiate arbitral proceedings against the other Parties in accordance with Section 7.12 within 18 (eighteen) months from the dispatch of the Notice, the relevant claim shall be definitely foregone and unenforceable.

The provisions in this Section supersede any statutory examination or notice requirements.

6.5

Limitations of Liability

The Sellers shall have no liability (for indemnification or otherwise) under this Section 6 if, in respect of a specific event or a series of related events, the amount of damages allegedly incurred does not exceed CHF 20,000 (the “De Minimis Amount”). The Sellers shall have no liability under this Section 6.1 until the Purchaser has suffered damages in excess of CHF 250,000 (the “Threshold”) in the aggregate (for the avoidance of doubt, not counting any claims which are below the De Minimis Amount), at which point the Sellers will be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser from and against all such damages, from the first Swiss franc, except for Sellers’ liability for Taxes (Section 4.2.14) for which there shall be no Threshold.

The Sellers’ liability under this Agreement shall not exceed a sum equal to 20% (twenty percent) of the Purchase Price (the “Cap”).

6.6

Exclusions of Liability

6.7

Third Party Claims

Promptly after the Purchaser shall have received notice (an “Indemnification Notice”) of the commencement of any action by any third party in respect of which the Purchaser will or may seek indemnification under this Section 6 (the “Third Party Claim”), the Purchaser shall immediately notify the Sellers thereof in writing pursuant to Section 7.1, but no failure to so notify the Sellers shall relieve the Sellers from any liability that they have to the Purchaser except if and to the extent that the Sellers shall have been materially prejudiced thereby either because the damages have increased or the notifying Party has failed to take reasonable steps to mitigate the damages. In making any notice under this Section 7, the Purchaser will specify with reasonable particularity the item or items giving rise to the claim and the basis of the claim.

The Purchaser, in consultation with Sellers’ Representative and taking into account the reasonable interests of the Sellers, shall be entitled to defend lawsuits or actions (including, without limitation, all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any tax authority and all aspects of any litigation relating to taxes) and to employ and engage attorneys of its own choice (with prior consultation with Sellers’ Representative) to adequately handle and defend the same. The reasonable fees of such attorneys shall be borne by the Sellers (to the extent such fees cannot be recovered from the counterparty). In any event, the Purchaser may not settle any such Third Party Claims without Sellers’ Representative’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Purchaser shall keep the Sellers’ Representative informed of any proceedings relating to a Third Party Claim.

The Sellers shall have the right to employ their own, separate counsel who may give non-binding advice to the Purchaser and shall have the right to be consulted by the Purchaser in the defense of such lawsuit or action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Sellers.

The Sellers shall co-operate in all respects with the Purchaser and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such lawsuit or action and any appeal arising therefrom.

Notwithstanding the above, the Sellers may, subject to the prior written approval of the Purchaser, defend any claim themselves (or lead the defense by the Purchaser of any claim) at their entire costs and the Purchaser shall take any action and provide assistance required by the Sellers to enable the Sellers to defend such claim.

6.8

Exclusive Remedy

The sole and exclusive remedy of any Party for any misrepresentation (excluding fraudulent or intentional misrepresentation) or any breach of a warranty or covenant set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be a claim for indemnification under and pursuant to this Section 6 provided, however, that the Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief where available by applicable law. The remedies for breach of representations and warranties shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the remedies provided for by law. All other remedies including, without limitation, the right to rescind this Agreement and to seek reduction of the Purchase Price shall not apply and are expressly waived. In particular, and without limitation to the foregoing, the Sellers and the Purchaser hereby explicitly waive the right of contract rescission under articles 23 et seq. and 205 CO.

- 35 -

6.9

Tax Indemnity

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers will, jointly and severally, be responsible for, will pay, and will indemnify Swiss Franc for Swiss Franc and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to Taxes of the Group Companies relating back to periods prior to the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnity under this Section 6.9 shall not include Taxes relating to the English Subsidiary which are dealt with in the UK SPA.

6.10

[**] Claim Indemnity

So long as the Company has duly performed its obligations contained in the [**] Agreements, the Sellers will, severally and not jointly, be responsible for and will pay to the Purchaser any [**] Claim which is owed and has been paid by the Company pursuant to the terms of the [**] Agreements. The Sellers shall have no liability for any [**] Claim unless and before the Company has used its commercially reasonable efforts to remedy the fact or event which has triggered such [**] Claim (if capable of being remedied), as the case may be at the reasonable cost of the Sellers. For the avoidance of doubt, each Seller shall only be liable under this Section 6.10 up to an amount which corresponds to any [**] Claim multiplied by the percentage of Shares owned by him as set out in Schedule A.

Until the Warranty End Date, the Sellers’ liability under this indemnification provision shall not exceed a sum equal to CHF 18,658,500 (for the avoidance of doubt, this amount shall be part of, and not in addition to, the Cap). After the Warranty End Date, the Sellers’ liability under this indemnification provision shall be reduced to CHF 567,372 through the Final Date, at which point it will reduce to zero.

The indemnity under this Section 6.10 shall be subject to the other terms of this Section 6, excluding the joint and several liability of the Sellers, the Indemnification Periods and the Threshold, but including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitations, the Cap.

The Parties acknowledge that the indemnity given by the Sellers to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.10 (the “[**] Indemnity”) is based on the assumption that Xxxxx Xxxxxx, as the Managing Director, Financial Messaging of the Company after Closing, will remain in charge and in control of the [**] Project and that the Purchaser and/or its affiliates will, if so reasonably requested by Xxxxx Xxxxxx, assist the Company in duly performing the [**] Project, including by providing technical and management assistance.

The Purchaser undertakes that from Closing until the Warranty End Date it will not (and it will procure that the Company will not) change, remove, amend the terms of employment of, or terminate any employee of the Company who is directly involved in the [**] Project without the consent of Xxxxx Xxxxxx, which consent shall not be unreasonable withheld; provided, however, that Xxxxx Xxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser will make certain changes with respect to the Company’s employment policies to make them consistent with the Purchaser’s global employment policies, which in the aggregate will not have a material impact on Company’s ability to perform the [**] Project. In the event that,

- 36 -

despite such consent not having been given by Xxxxx Xxxxxx, such employees are changed, removed or terminated by the Purchaser, or they have their terms of employment amended, with such events having a material negative impact on the Company’s ability to perform the [**] Project in accordance with the terms of the [**] Agreements, then the [**] Indemnity shall lapse immediately and the Sellers shall have no liability whatsoever under the [**] Indemnity (and any Escrow Amount shall immediately be released in favour of the Sellers (excluding any Pending Claims) if this occurs at a date which is after 18 months from Closing).

The Purchaser conducts its activities in accordance with the highest business, ethical and legal standards. Toward that end, all of the Purchaser’s employees are required to adhere to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as the company’s internal policies, which include but are not limited to the Purchaser’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and its Guiding Principles. Such practices advance not only the interests of the Purchaser and its employees, but also the interests of its partners and customers; sound and ethical business practices lead to excellent results. Once part of the Purchaser team, all employees of the Company will be required to adhere to these same high standards, as embodied in the Purchaser’s policies, and to follow the lawful direction of the Purchaser’s management. Employees of the Company will be held accountable for their actions and subject to the same disciplinary policies and procedures as any other worldwide employee of the Purchaser. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to exempt any employee of the Company from adherence to the Purchaser’s policies, standards and requirements, nor shall any disciplinary action by the Purchaser for a violation of these policies, standards or requirements be deemed a release of Sellers’ indemnification obligations with respect to the [**] Project.

6.11

Employee Indemnity

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers will, jointly and severally, be responsible for, will pay, and will indemnify Swiss Franc for Swiss Franc and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from, arising out of, or relating to the fact that any Group Company promised to Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxx and Xxxxxx Mayor to receive shares in the Parent Company or the Company.

6.12

Lease Indemnity

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers will, jointly and severally, be responsible for, will pay, and will indemnify Swiss Franc for Swiss Franc and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all liabilities, costs and expenses exceeding an amount of CHF 60,000 and resulting from, arising out of, or relating to the obligation of the Company reinstate and/or renovate the premises located at rue des Bains 33, Geneva, further to the termination of the associated lease agreement.
