The definitions and rules of interpretation in this clause apply in this Agreement.

Claim: a claim for breach of any of the Warranties.

A Claim is connected with another Claim if they all arise out of the occurrence of the same event or set of circumstances or relate to the same subject matter.

8.2

This clause limits the liability of the Sellers in relation to any Claim.

8.3

The liability of each of the Sellers for all Relevant Claims when taken together shall not exceed the amount of the Purchase Price actually received by him.

The Sellers shall not be liable for a Claim, other than a Claim in relation to the Fundamental Warranties, unless:

(a)

the amount of a Claim, or of a series of connected Claims of which that Claim is one, exceeds £25,000; and

(b)

the amount of all Claims that are not excluded under clause 8.4(a) when taken together, exceeds £250,000 in which case the whole amount (and not just the amount by which the limit in this clause 8.4(b) is exceeded) is recoverable by the Buyer.

8.5

The Sellers shall not be liable for a Claim, an Indemnity Claim or claim under the Tax Covenant unless the Buyer has given the Sellers notice in writing (in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) of the Claim or claim under the Tax Covenant, summarising in reasonable detail the matter giving rise to and the nature of the Claim or claim under the Tax Covenant, and, as far as is reasonably practicable, the amount claimed (or an estimate of such amount):

in the case of a claim made under the Tax Warranties or the Tax Covenant be deemed to have been irrevocably withdrawn 12 months after the end of the period referred to at clause 8.5(a) (and no new Claim or claim under the Tax Covenant may be made in respect of the same facts unless material new information relevant to such facts has come to light) unless on or before that date, legal proceedings have been issued and served on the Sellers in respect of the relevant claim; or

(b)

in the case of all other Claims or Indemnity Claims be deemed to have been irrevocably withdrawn 9 months after the date on which notice of the relevant Claim was given (and no new Claim may be made in respect of the same facts unless material new information relevant to such facts has come to light) unless on or before that date, legal proceedings have been issued and served on the Sellers in respect of the relevant claim.

8.7

The Sellers shall have no liability in respect of a Relevant Claim (which for the purposes of this clause 8.7 shall not include a claim under the Tax Covenant) if and to the extent of any specific allowance, provision or reserve (which is clearly identifiable as such) which was made in the Completion Accounts in respect of the matter or circumstances giving rise to the Relevant Claim.

8.8

If, in respect of any matter or circumstance which gives rise to a Claim or Indemnity Claim, the Company, the US Subsidiary or any other member of the Buyer’s Group (the “Insured Party”) is entitled to claim under any policy of insurance, then the relevant Insured Party shall (provided it is not materially prejudicial to the Buyer’s commercial interests to do so) make a claim against its insurers in respect of the relevant matter or circumstance, and use reasonable endeavours to pursue such claim. The Sellers’ liability in respect of any related Claim or Indemnity Claim shall then be reduced by any amount actually recovered under such policy of insurance (less all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Insured Party in recovering that sum), or extinguished if the amount so recovered exceeds the amount of the Claim.

8.10

If the Sellers make a payment to the Buyer in respect of a Claim or Indemnity Claim and the Company, the US Subsidiary or any other member of the Buyer’s Group subsequently recovers from a third party or insurer (pursuant to clause 7.9 or 7.10 above) a sum which is referable to that Claim or Indemnity Claim, the Buyer shall promptly repay to the Seller the lower of:

(a)

the amount recovered from such third party (less all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Buyer, the Company, the US Subsidiary or other member of the Buyer’s Group in recovering that sum); and

(b)

Execution Version

(a)

any voluntary act or deliberate omission carried out by the Buyer, or by the Company or the US Subsidiary on or after Completion at the direction of the Buyer, but excluding such acts or omissions carried out or effected in the ordinary course of business and/or pursuant to a legally binding obligation entered into on or before the date of this Agreement;

(b)

any voluntary act or deliberate omission carried out by the Company or the US Subsidiary at the request, or with the specific written consent, of the Buyer before Completion; or

were within the actual knowledge of the Buyer (and for the purposes of this clause the Buyer shall be deemed to have the actual knowledge of Xxx Xxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx and Xxx Xxxxxxxx), on or before Completion, whether as a result of the Buyer’s due diligence investigations or otherwise and the Buyer actually knows (without having reviewed the Warranties for such purposes) that such facts, matters, events or circumstances, and the detrimental effect, loss or negative consequence resulting from such facts, matters, events or circumstances which gives rise to the Claim, have already arisen as at the date hereof.

8.14

The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a Claim to the extent that the Claim is attributable to, or the value of the Claim is increased (in which case the limit on liability contemplated under this clause 8.14 shall apply only to the increased amount of such liability) by a change in any law, legislation, rule or regulation that comes into force with retrospective effect after the date of this Agreement, which, in each case, was not publicised prior to the date of this Agreement.

Execution Version

(ii)

a breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument to which the Buyer and/or WTG is a party or by which either of them is otherwise bound; or

2.5

any Liability for Taxation of any member of the Company’s Group which arises either before or after Completion in consequence of any liability to account for income tax or NICs (or social security contributions or any other payroll taxes) arising in respect of any payments made prior to Completion to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx and/or Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx and/or Xxxxx Xxxxx who have been engaged by the Company as self-employed consultants;

2.8

2.9

all legal and accounting costs and expenses properly and reasonably incurred and payable by any member of the Company’s Group or the Buyer in connection with any action taken to avoid resist or settle any Tax Claim, Liability for Taxation or other liability under this paragraph 2 or otherwise taking or defending any action under this Tax Covenant.

LIMITATION OF SELLERS’ LIABILITY

3.1

The covenant given by paragraph 2 above shall not cover any Liability for Taxation or under the Tax Warranties:

(a)

to the extent that provision or reserve in respect thereof (other than a deferred taxation provision) is made in the Completion Accounts or the Accounts;

(b)

to the extent recovery (less costs and expenses) has been made by the Buyer under any other provision of this Agreement in respect of the same loss, damage or deficiency;

(c)

to the extent that such Liability for Taxation arises or is increased as a result only of any change in Law (other than a change targeted specifically at countering a tax avoidance scheme) announced and coming into force after the date of Completion with retrospective effect;

(d)

to the extent that such liability arises as a result of a change after Completion in any accounting policy of any member of the Company’s Group (other than any change necessary to comply with the Law or intended to bring the accounting policy into line with generally accepted accounting practice as at Completion);

(e)

to the extent that such Liability for Taxation would not have arisen but for a voluntary act or transaction of the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group after the date hereof otherwise than in the ordinary course of business and otherwise than as compelled by Law or pursuant to a legally binding obligation created on or before the date hereof and where the Buyer knew (or ought reasonably to have known) that such action or transaction would give rise to such liability;

(f)

to the extent that such liability would not have arisen or would have been reduced but for a failure or omission on the part of the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group after Completion to make any election, claim, surrender

or disclaimer, or give any notice or consent, in relation to Taxation, the anticipated making giving or doing of which was taken into account in computing any provision or reserve for Taxation in preparing the Completion Accounts, provided that sufficient information in respect of the making or giving of which was notified by the Sellers in writing to the Buyer within a reasonable time before the date for doing so;

(g)

to the extent that any Relief (other than a Buyer’s Relief) is made available to any member of the Company’s Group at no cost and is or may be actually used by the Company or any member of the Company’s Group to set against or otherwise mitigate the Liability for Taxation, and for the purposes of this paragraph 3.1(g) it shall be assumed that such a Relief (other than a Buyer’s Relief) is or may be actually used to the extent that such use is allowed by law and to the extent that it is reasonable to do so, provided that the Relief in question shall be disregarded for the purposes of this exclusion if the use of such Relief to eliminate or reduce the Liability for Taxation would result in any Buyer’s Relief otherwise being lost;

(h)

to the extent that such liability arises directly or indirectly as a result of the cessation of, or any change in the nature or conduct of, any business carried on by a member of the Company’s Group occurring after Completion;

(i)

to the extent that such liability arises or is increased due to the fact that any instalment of corporation tax (within the meaning of CTA 2010) paid prior to Completion pursuant to the Corporation Tax (Instalment Payments) Regulations 1998 (SI 1998/3175) is insufficient or such liability comprises interest or penalties arising by virtue of an underpayment of tax prior to Completion, where the payments made prior to Completion (or the decision to make no payment at all) would not subsequently have proved to have been insufficient but for the profits and gains earned by the Group Company after Completion proving to be greater than those reasonably expected (based on a bona fide estimate) at the date of the relevant instalment payment to be earned, accrued or received by the Group Company after Completion;

(j)

to the extent that such liability arises by virtue of any claim, election, surrender or disclaimer made after Completion by or on behalf of the Buyer (including the disclaimer of the whole or part of any Relief) other than where the making, giving or doing of such thing is taken into account in the preparation of the Completion Accounts (comprising the consolidated statements of the financial position of the Company and the US Subsidiary); or

(k)

to the extent that such liability has been made good by insurers or otherwise compensated for without cost to the Buyer or any Buyer Associate; or

(l)

to the extent that such liability arises or is increased as a consequence of any failure by the Buyer or (after Completion) by a member of the Company’s Group to comply with its obligations under paragraph 8 (Conduct of Claims) or paragraph 7 (Tax Returns); or

(m)

to the extent that such Liability for Taxation arises as a result of an Event occurring or income, profits or gains earned, received or accrued in the ordinary course of business between the Completion Accounts Date and Completion,

provided that the profits in question have not been distributed by way of dividend by the Company as at Completion.

PAYMENT DATE AND INTEREST

4.1

Where the Sellers are liable to make any payment under paragraph 2, the due date for the making of that payment by way of cleared immediately available funds (the “Due Date”) shall be the date falling 3 Business Days after the Buyer has served a notice on the Sellers demanding that payment or, if later:

(a)

in a case that involves a Liability for Taxation falling within sub-paragraph (a) of that definition (an actual payment of Taxation) 5 Business Days prior to the last date on which the Taxation in question has to be paid to the relevant Taxation Authority in order to prevent a liability to interest or a fine, surcharge or penalty from arising in respect of the Liability for Taxation in question; or

(b)

in any case that involves a Liability for Taxation falling within sub-paragraph (b) of that definition (the Loss of any Relief), 5 Business Days prior to the last date upon which Taxation is or would have been required to be paid to the relevant Taxation Authority in respect of the period in which the Loss of the Relief occurs (assuming for this purpose that any member of the Company’s Group had sufficient profits or was otherwise in a position to use the Relief); or

(c)

in any case that involves a Liability for Taxation falling within sub-paragraph (c) of that definition (the Loss of any right to repayment of Taxation), the date falling 3 Business Days after the Buyer notifies the Sellers that the loss of the right to repayment has occurred; or

(d)

in any case that involves a Liability for Taxation falling within sub-paragraph (d) of that definition (the set-off or use of a Buyer’s Relief), the date upon which the Taxation saved by any member of the Company’s Group would have been required to be paid to the relevant Taxation Authority.

4.2

Any dispute as to the amount specified in any notice served on the Sellers under sub-paragraph 4.1 or as to the Due Date shall, unless the parties agree otherwise, be determined by the auditors of any member of the Company’s Group for the time being, acting as expert and not as arbitrator (the costs of that determination being shared equally by the Sellers and the Buyer).

4.3

If any sum required to be paid by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant is not paid on the Due Date, then, except to the extent that the Sellers’ liability under paragraph 2 compensates the Buyer for the late payment by virtue of it extending to interest and penalties, such sum shall bear interest (which shall accrue after as well as before any judgment for the same) at the rate of 4 per cent per annum over the base rate from time to time of Barclays Bank plc or (in the absence thereof) at such similar rate as the Buyer shall select. The interest will accrue from day to day on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year.

Recovery from other persons

5.1

Where the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group is or becomes entitled to recover from some other person not being a Buyer Associate (but including any

Taxation Authority) any amount which is referable to a Liability for Taxation which has resulted in a payment being made by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant, the Buyer shall or shall procure that the relevant member of the Company’s Group shall:

(a)

notify the Sellers of its entitlement; and

(b)

if required by the Sellers and, subject to the Buyer and any member of the Company’s Group being indemnified by the Sellers against any Taxation that may be suffered on receipt of that amount and any costs and expenses incurred in recovering that amount, take or procure that the relevant member of the Company’s Group takes all reasonable endeavours to enforce that recovery, provided that the Buyer and any member of the Company’s Group shall not be required to take any action either (i) against any current employees of the Group Companies, which have not given a contractual right to any member of the Company’s Group to do so, or (ii) which, in the Buyer’s reasonable opinion, is likely to be materially prejudicial to its or any member of the Company’s Group’s commercial relationship with that or any other person.

5.2

If the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group recovers any amount referred to in this paragraph 6 then the Buyer shall account to the Sellers for the lesser of:

(a)

any amount recovered (including any related interest or related repayment supplement) less any Taxation suffered (or that would be suffered ignoring the availability of any Buyer’s Relief) in respect of that amount and less any costs and expenses incurred in recovering that amount (save to the extent that that amount has already been made good by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant or under the Sale Agreement); and

(b)

the amount paid by the Sellers under paragraph 2 in respect of the Liability for Taxation in question.

Overprovisions and Savings

6.1

If the auditors of any member of the Company’s Group for the time being (the “Auditors”) (at the Sellers’ request and expense) determine in writing:

(a)

that any provision for Taxation in the Completion Accounts (other than a provision for deferred Taxation) is an overprovision (an “Overprovision”) except where that overprovision arises due to:

(A)

a change in law;

(B)

a change in the accounting bases on which the Company values its assets; or

(C)

a voluntary act or omission of the Buyer,

that, in each case, occurs after Completion;

(b)

that any Liability for Taxation which has resulted in a payment being made by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant has given rise to a repayment of any Taxation or a Relief for the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group

which is attributable to the Liability for Taxation in question and which would not otherwise have arisen (a “Saving”);

then the Overprovision or Saving will be dealt with in accordance with this paragraph 7.

6.2

The amount of the Overprovision or Saving (as determined by the Auditors) less any costs incurred by any member of the Company’s Group or the Buyer in obtaining the Overprovision or Saving:

(a)

shall first be set-off against any payment then due from the Sellers under this Tax Covenant;

(b)

to the extent that there is an excess, a refund shall be made to the Sellers of any previous payment or payments made by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant (and not previously refunded under this Tax Covenant) up to the amount of such excess; and

(c)

to the extent that such excess as referred to in paragraph (b) above is not exhausted, the remainder of that excess shall be carried forward and set off against any future payment or payments which become due from the Sellers under this Tax Covenant.

6.3

Where any determination in relation to an Overprovision or Saving has been made, the Sellers or the Buyer may request the Auditors (at the expense of the party making the request) to review such determination in the light of all relevant circumstances including facts which have become known only since such determination and to determine whether such determination remains correct and whether the amount that was the subject of such determination should be amended. If the Auditors determine that the amount should be amended, an adjusting payment shall be made as soon as practicable by the Sellers or (as the case may be) to the Sellers.

Corporation Tax Returns

7.1

Subject to sub-paragraph 7.2 and to sub-paragraph 7.4, for all accounting periods ended on or prior to Completion, the Sellers or their duly authorised agents shall, at the Company’s sole cost and expense (to the extent that an appropriate provision has been made in the Completion Accounts for the preparation of such returns), prepare the tax returns and computations of any member of the Company’s Group for accounting periods ending on or before Completion (the “Pre Completion Returns”) and shall prepare all related documentation and correspondence and shall have conduct of the negotiation and agreement of the Pre Completion Returns.

7.2

The Sellers shall or shall procure that their duly authorised agents shall:

(a)

submit any Pre Completion Return which has not before Completion been submitted to the applicable Taxation Authority to the Buyer at least 30 days before the date upon which it is required to be filed with the applicable Taxation Authority without incurring interest and penalties;

(b)

submit copies of all other correspondence and other documents that are to be submitted to any Taxation Authority in connection with the Pre Completion Returns to the Buyer at least 10 Business Days before submission;

(c)

take account of all reasonable comments made by the Buyer in relation to the Pre Completion Returns, correspondence and other documents;

(d)

not without the prior written consent of the Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) transmit any communication (written or otherwise) to any Taxation Authority or agree any matter with any Taxation Authority;

(e)

keep the Buyer fully and promptly informed of the progress of any negotiations with any Taxation Authority; and

(f)

take all reasonable steps and use its best endeavours to ensure that the Pre Completion Returns are prepared and agreed with the applicable Taxation Authority as soon as possible.

7.3

The Buyer shall procure that the Pre Completion Returns and other documentation mentioned in sub-paragraph 7.1 shall, subject to sub-paragraph 7.2 to the extent not authorised signed or submitted before Completion, be authorised, signed and submitted to the applicable Taxation Authority without amendment or with such amendments as the Buyer reasonably considers to be necessary and shall give the Sellers or their agents all such assistance as may reasonably be required (at the Sellers’ cost and expense) to agree the Pre Completion Returns with the applicable Taxation Authority PROVIDED THAT the Buyer shall not be obliged to incur any material cost or expense in doing so or to take any such action in relation to any Pre Completion Return that is not full, true and accurate in all respects.

7.4

The Sellers rights under this paragraph 7 shall cease if in the reasonable opinion of the Buyer:

(a)

the Sellers are in material non-remediable breach of their obligations under sub-paragraph 7.2 or are in material remediable breach and fail to remedy such breach within 14 days following service by the Buyer of a written notice specifying the breach and requiring it to be remedied; or

(b)

any Pre Completion Return or other document prepared by or on behalf of the Sellers pursuant to sub-paragraph 7.2 is false, misleading, incomplete or inaccurate in any material respect.

7.5

The Buyer or its duly authorised agents shall prepare the tax returns and computations for all accounting periods which end after Completion (including for the avoidance of doubt the accounting period which starts before and ends after Completion).

7.6

For the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph 7 shall not apply or shall cease to apply to any matter that is or becomes the subject of a Tax Claim and that is therefore governed by paragraph 8 of this Tax Covenant.

Disputes and Conduct of Tax Claims

8.1

If the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group shall receive notice of or become aware of a Tax Claim, the Buyer shall give or shall procure that notice in writing is given to the Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable and in the case of any Tax Claim in respect of which appeal or response is subject to a time limit, within 20 Business Days of such limit.

8.2

Subject to sub-paragraph 8.3, if the Sellers shall indemnify the relevant member of the Company’s Group and/or (as the case shall require) the Buyer to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction against all liabilities, costs, damages or expenses which may be incurred thereby including any additional Liability for Taxation, the Buyer shall and shall procure that the relevant member of the Company’s Group shall take such action as the Sellers may reasonably request by notice in writing given to the relevant member of the Company’s Group and the Buyer to avoid, dispute, defend, resist, appeal, compromise or settle such Tax Claim.

8.3

The Sellers’ rights under this paragraph 8 shall cease and the Buyer shall have the conduct of a Dispute absolutely (without prejudice to its rights under this Tax Covenant) and shall be free to pay or settle any Tax Claim on such terms as the Buyer or the relevant member of the Company’s Group may in its discretion consider fit if:

(a)

the Sellers do not request that the Buyer or the relevant member of the Company’s Group take any action under sub-paragraph 8.2 of this Tax Covenant (or if the Sellers fail to indemnify the Buyer and the relevant member of the Company’s Group to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction) within a period of time and which period shall not:

(i)

exceed a period of 21 days commencing with the date of the notice given pursuant to sub-paragraph 8.1 to the Sellers; or

(b)

the Sellers notify the Buyer or the relevant member of the Company’s Group to the effect that they no longer wish to pursue the Dispute;

(c)

the Sellers fail within 10 Business Days of a reasonable written request by the Buyer or any member of the Company’s Group to provide reasonable clarification of any action that any member of the Company’s Group or the Buyer is requested to take under sub-paragraph 8.2;

(d)

a Taxation Authority alleges that (prior to Completion) there was any action or omission by any member of the Company’s Group or that (at any time) there was any action or omission by the Sellers or any of them which constitutes fraudulent conduct;

(e)

the dispute involves an appeal against a determination by the Tax Chamber of the First-tier Tribunal or higher tribunal, unless the Sellers have obtained the

opinion of Tax counsel of at least 5 years standing that there is a reasonable prospect that the appeal will succeed.

8.4

Subject to sub-paragraph 8.3, by agreement in writing between the Buyer and the Sellers, the conduct of a Tax Claim may be delegated to the Sellers upon such terms as may be agreed from time to time between the Buyer and the Sellers PROVIDED THAT, unless the Buyer and the Sellers specifically agree otherwise in writing, the following terms shall be deemed to be incorporated into any such agreement:

(a)

the appointment of solicitors or other professional advisers shall be subject to the approval of the Buyer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

(b)

all communications (written or otherwise) pertaining to the Dispute which are to be transmitted to the relevant Taxation Authority shall first be submitted to the Buyer and any member of the Company’s Group for approval and shall only be finally transmitted if such approval is given, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

(c)

the Sellers shall take account of all reasonable comments made by the Buyer in relation to the conduct of the Dispute;

(d)

reasonable advance written notice of any meeting that is to take place with a representative or representatives of any Taxation Authority together with an outline of the issues that it is anticipated will be addressed shall be given to the Buyer and the relevant member of the Company’s Group and the Buyer shall be entitled to nominate a person or persons to attend any such meeting;

(e)

the Sellers shall keep the Buyer fully and promptly informed in writing of the progress of any Dispute and the Buyer shall be promptly sent copies of all correspondence and notes or other written records of telephone conversations or meetings and, in the event that there is no written record, shall be given an immediate report of any telephone conversation with any Taxation Authority to the extent that it relates to a Dispute;

(f)

the Sellers shall take all reasonable steps and use their best endeavours to agree any Dispute with the applicable Taxation Authority within a reasonable time; and

(g)

the Sellers shall make no settlement or compromise of the Dispute or agree any matter in the conduct of the Dispute which is likely to affect the amount thereof or the future liability to Taxation of any Buyer Associate without the prior written approval of the relevant member of the Company’s Group or the Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

8.5

The Buyer shall provide and procure that the relevant member of the Company’s Group provides to the Sellers and the Sellers’ professional advisors reasonable access to premises and personnel and to any relevant assets, documents and records within their power, possession or control for the purpose of investigating the matter and enabling the Sellers to take such action as is referred to in this paragraph 8.

8.6

For the avoidance of doubt, no obligation imposed on the Buyer pursuant to this paragraph 8 shall be a condition precedent to the liability of the Sellers under this Tax Covenant and neither the Buyer nor any member of the Company’s Group shall be subject to any claim by or liability to any of the Sellers for non-compliance with any of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 8 if (in either case) the Buyer or the relevant member of the Company’s Group has bona fide acted in accordance with the instructions of any one or more of the Sellers.

General

For the purposes of determining whether a Liability for Taxation or a Relief relates to a pre or post Completion period, an accounting period of each member of the Company’s Group shall be deemed to have ended on Completion.

10.

(b)

the Company ceasing to be resident in the United Kingdom for Tax purposes,

11.3

Schedule 7. Information technology

Part 1 - Particulars of IT System

Overview

The IT network within the Company has been developed and is maintained by two full-time IT Engineers and provides a sophisticated and fully integrated IT network to employees in both sites and to VPN users. The Company’s IT department does not contract external resources or professional services to support it.

In-house Private Server Cloud

At the heart of the Company’s IT infrastructure is a VSphere virtualization platform. This currently hosts 49 Virtual Machines (VMs) on 6 actual server platforms across the two sites. Some of these VMs are providing file service shares including Windows Server, SAP, Microsoft Exchange, Jira, Confluence, FTP services and Linux Samba shares. The remainder of these VMs facilitate Domain Controllers, test workstations, GitLab repositories, licence servers, KACE, Teamcity, certificates and web and intranet servers and other support functions to the business.

Server Backups

Cross-site server backups are conducted to endeavour to provide business continuity and mitigate data loss and this is implemented automatically with Veeam Backup & Recovery software. The back up server is located at a different location to the primary server. Project data is mirrored and backed-up between the Loughborough and Duisburg servers every weekday night.

Workstations

There are 74 workstations which mostly run Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows 10. The Company has:

11 x Office 365 subscriptions;

11 x Office 2013 Licences;

11 x Office 2010 Licences;

48 x Office 2010 Microsoft Volume Licences; and

40 x Office 2007 Licences.

A small number of the workstations run Linux. These workstations are used in the office and lab environment.

Dell is the preferred solutions provider and most users are issued with a Dell E-Series laptop with up to two additional screens.

All employees use Microsoft Office and the applications software inventory on these workstations includes: SAP Business One, Mentor Expedition/xDX Designer, TI’s Code Composer Studio, GitLab, TeamCity, LabView, XJTAG, Solidworks and Solidworks Flow and Microsoft Project.

Workstation Backups

Office workstations are backed-up using Acronis Backup and this runs to an automated schedule storing data on dedicated server platforms.

Development Environment

Jira project management tool is used in all aspects of software and hardware development and support. GitLab is the repository for software and firmware and provides strict version control. In-house Wiki is provided with a Confluence site allowing project spaces to be built for each project team. Instant messaging and communication is facilitated between all team members, whatever their location using Skype.

Security

The network has been architected with security in mind. Both sites operate sophisticated firewall apparatus which can screen all traffic entering or leaving the network. The on-site Microsoft Exchange email service operates in conjunction with GFI MailEssentials screening and virus checking to protect the network from email-borne threats. Workstations are provisioned, managed and secured using KACE Endpoint Systems Management suite. This allows the IT team to push security patches and upgrades to all corporate users immediately or as required. This toolkit is also used to assure software licence compliance and inventory. All workstations are protected with Trend Worry-Free Business Security and this is centrally administered to ensure each workstation is up-to-date. Security risks are reviewed and tested periodically.

Please refer to the Company’s IT inventory at document VII.G.3 of the appendix to the Disclosure Letter.

Earn-out Payments

2.1

As additional consideration for the Sale Shares, the Buyer shall make the following payments to the Sellers, which shall be apportioned between the Sellers as set out opposite their respective names in Schedule 1 (together the “Earn-out Payments”, each an “Earn-out Payment”):

(a)

A 2017 Earn-out Payment of up to £10,000,000 (ten million pounds), based on 2017 EBITDA being greater than £2,000,0000 (two million pounds) in the First Earn-out Year, calculated by reference to the indicative table setting out the methodology for calculating the 0000 Xxxx-xxx Payment and the 2018 Earn-out Payment included at Part 2 of this Schedule, as further described in paragraphs 2.2 to 2.5 (inclusive) of this Schedule; and

(b)

A 2018 Earn-out Payment of up to £10,000,000 (ten million pounds) LESS the value of the 2017 Earn-out Payment (if any), based on 2018 EBITDA being between greater than the EBITDA figure actually achieved in the First Earn-out Year (and in any event greater than £2,000,0000 (two million pounds)) in the Second Earn-out Year calculated by reference to the indicative table setting out the methodology for calculating the 0000 Xxxx-xxx Payment and the 2018 Earn-out Payment included at Part 2 of this Schedule as further described in paragraphs 2.2 to 2.5 (inclusive) of this Schedule.

2.2

As indicated in the table at Part 2 of this Schedule, each incremental increase in EBITDA of up to £100,000 shall be multiplied by the appropriate multiplier set out adjacent to that increment in the table in calculating each Earn-out Payment.

2.3

For the avoidance of doubt, each £1 of EBITDA in respect of the First Earn-out Year and the Second Earn-out Year shall be included in the calculation of the relevant Earn-out Payment and not just complete increments of £100,000.

2.4

In respect of the Second Earn-out Year, the 2018 Earn-out Payment shall, if the 2018 EBITDA is greater than £2,000,000 and greater than the 2017 EBITDA, be calculated:

(a)

first by reference to the table at Part 2 of this Schedule, disregarding any 2017 Earn-out Payment; and

(b)

second, by deducting from the amount so determined the value of the 2017 Earn-out payment.

2.5

The following are illustrative examples of the calculation of the Earn-out Payments, which are included as an aide to interpretation only:

2017 EBITDA	2017 Earn-out Payment	2018 EBITDA	2018 Earn-out Payment
£1,800,000	zero (as EBITDA below £2,000,000)	£1,900,000	zero (as EBITDA below £2,000,000)
£1,800,000	zero (as EBITDA below £2,000,000)	£2,500,000	£1,000,000 less zero = £1,000,000
£1,800,000	zero (as EBITDA below £2,000,000)	£3,792,500	£4,600,000 plus (£92,5003) less zero = £4,600,000 plus £277,500 less zero = £4,877,500*
£3,000,000	£2,500,000	£2,500,000	zero (as 2018 EBITDA lower than 2017 EBITDA)
£3,000,000	£2,500,000	£3,100,000	£2,800,000 less £2,500,000 = £300,000
£3,000,000	£2,500,000	£4,015,860	£5,500,000 plus (£15,8603.5) less £2,500,000 =£5,500,000 plus £55,510 less £2,500,000 = £3,055,510*
£4,375,100	£6,550,000 plus (£75,1003.5) = £6,550,000 plus £262,850 = £6,812,850*	£4,690,000	£7,600,000 plus (£90,0003.5) less £6,812,850 = £7,600,000 plus £315,000 less £6,812,850 = £1,102,150*
£4,375,100	£6,550,000 plus (£75,1003.5) = £6,550,000 plus £262,850 = £6,812,850*	£5,002,000	£9,000,000 plus (£2,0002) less £6,812,850 = £9,000,000 plus £4,000 less £6,812,850 = £2,191,150*
£5,700,000	£10,000,000 (maximum)	£7,000,000	zero (as maximum earned in 2017)

2.6

Subject always to paragraph 6 of this Schedule 9 (Set-Off Rights) the Buyer shall pay the amount due (if any) in respect of each Earn-out Payment in cash (and through the issue of a loan note if applicable):

(a)

by the later of:

(i)

5 Business Days following the date that the parties agree in writing that the relevant Earn-out Payment is agreed; or

(ii)

31 March in the Financial Year that follows the relevant Earn-out Period; or

(b)

if an Objection Notice is served in accordance with paragraph 3.3 of this Schedule the Buyer shall pay such amount of the relevant Earn-out Payment as is not in dispute between the parties by the date referred to at paragraph 2.6(a) and shall pay the balance (if any) of the relevant Earn-out Payment within 10 days of the parties:

(i)

agreeing in writing all disputed matters concerning the relevant Earn-out Statement and the calculation of the corresponding Earn-out Payment; or

(ii)

receiving notice of the Expert’s determination of the relevant Earn-out Payment in accordance with paragraph of this Schedule.

2.7

To the extent that the 0000 Xxxx-xxx Payment exceeds the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 0000 Xxxx-xxx Payment exceeds the 2018 EBITDA (in either such case an “Earn-out Surplus”), the Buyer may, by notice in writing to the Sellers’ Representative delivered with the draft Earn-out Statement referred to in paragraph 3.2 below elect to satisfy the Earn-out Surplus by issuing the Sellers with a loan note (which shall carry an interest rate of 5% and a redemption period of 2 years (in relation to the 2017 Earn-out Payment) and 1 year (in relation to the 2018 Earn-out Payment)) issued by WTG to the Sellers for the full amount of the Earn-out Surplus in proportion to their respective entitlements to the relevant Earn-out Payment, subject only to the Sellers’, the Buyer and WTG agreeing to the terms of such loan note (provided always that the terms referred to above relating to interest and redemption shall be deemed to be agreed). For the avoidance of doubt, the balance of the Earn-out Payment (excluding the Earn-out Surplus) shall be made in cash in accordance with paragraph 2.6.

2.8

EBITDA results will be calculated in accordance with UK GAAP (in a manner consistent with past practice of the Company in the normal course of business) save where specific accounting policies and procedures have been specified in paragraph 7 of this Schedule (in which case those specific policies and procedures shall apply and not UK GAAP).

Earn-out Statement and agreeing the Earn-out Payments

3.1

In relation to each Earn-out Period, the Buyer shall procure that the Reference Accounts for that Earn-out Period are prepared and audited as soon as practicable and in any event within 90 days of the last day of the relevant Earn-out Period.

3.2

Within 10 Business Days of completion of the audit of the Reference Accounts in respect of an Earn-out Period, the Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers:

(i)

its calculation of the EBITDA for that Earn-out Period;

(ii)

any adjustments made to the Reference Accounts or any figures stated therein in preparing the Earn-out Statement, including, without limitation, those made to reflect the specific accounting policies and procedures set out in paragraph 7 of this Schedule; and

(iii)

its calculation of the resulting Earn-Out Payment (if any) payable in respect of that Earn-out Period.

written notice of that election; and

(ii)

a draft of the loan note instrument pursuant to which such loan notes are proposed to be issued together with details of any other terms or restrictions to which such loan notes would be subject.

3.3

The Sellers shall, within 10 Business Days from receipt of the Reference Accounts and the Earn-out Statement for an Earn-out Period (“Review Period”), deliver to the Buyer a written notice stating whether they agree with the Earn-out Statement and the Buyer’s calculation of the Earn-out Payment. In the case of any disagreement, the notice (“Objection Notice”) shall specify the areas disputed by the Sellers and describe, in reasonable detail, the basis for the dispute.

3.4

If the Sellers fail to deliver an Objection Notice during the Review Period they shall, with effect from the expiry of the Review Period, be deemed to agree the Earn-out Statement and the amount of Earn-out Payment specified in it.

3.5

During each Review Period, the Buyer shall upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, permit the Sellers (and their agents or advisers) to review such books and records of the Company and the US Subsidiary as the Sellers (or their agents or advisers) may reasonably require for the purpose of reviewing the Earn-out Statement and the Buyer’s calculation of the corresponding Earn-out Payment.

3.6

If the Sellers serve an Objection Notice in accordance with paragraph 3.3 of this Schedule, the parties shall seek in good faith to resolve the disputed matters and agree the amount of the Revenue and the Earn-out Payment for the relevant Earn-out Period as soon as reasonably possible. If the parties are unable to reach

agreement within 15 Business Days of the service of the Objection Notice, then at any time following the expiry of such period either party may, by written notice to the other (“Resolution Notice”), require the disputed matters to be referred to an Expert for determination in accordance with paragraph 4 of this Schedule.

3.7

Each party shall bear and pay its own costs incurred in connection with the preparation, review and agreement of each Earn-out Statement and the calculation of each Earn-out Payment.

Expert determination

4.1

If a Resolution Notice is served by either party, the parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to reach agreement regarding the identity of the person to be appointed as the Expert and to agree terms of appointment with the Expert as soon as reasonably possible. Neither party shall unreasonably withhold its agreement to the terms of appointment proposed by the Expert or the other party.

4.2

If the parties fail to agree on an Expert and his terms of appointment within ten (10) Business Days of either party serving details of a proposed Expert on the other, either party shall be entitled to request the President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales to appoint the Expert and to agree his of terms of appointment on behalf of the parties.

4.3

Except for any procedural matters, or as otherwise expressly provided in this Schedule, the scope of the Expert’s determination shall be limited to determining the unresolved matters in the Objection Notice relating to:

(a)

whether the Earn-out Statement has been prepared, and the corresponding calculation of the Earn-out Payment has been made, in accordance with the requirements of this Schedule;

(b)

whether any errors have been made in the preparation of the Earn-out Statement and the corresponding calculation of the Earn-out Payment; and

(c)

any consequential adjustments, corrections or modifications that are required for the Earn-out Statement to have been prepared, and the corresponding calculation of the Earn-out Payment to have been made, in accordance with the requirements of this Schedule.

4.4

The parties shall co-operate with the Expert and shall provide (and in the case of the Buyer shall procure that the Company and each of the US Subsidiary provides) such assistance and access to such documents, personnel, books and records as the Expert may reasonably require for the purpose of making his determination.

4.5

The parties shall be entitled to make submissions to the Expert and each party shall, with reasonable promptness, supply the other party with all such information and access to its documentation, books and records as the other party may reasonably require in order to make a submission to the Expert in accordance with this paragraph.

4.6

To the extent not provided for in this paragraph 4, the Expert may in his reasonable discretion determine such other procedures to assist with the conduct of his determination as he considers just or appropriate including (to the extent he considers necessary) instructing professional advisers to assist him in reaching his determination.

4.7

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Expert shall be required to make his determination in writing (including the reasons for his determination) and to provide a copy to each party as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within thirty (30) Business Days of his appointment.

4.8

The Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. Save in the event of manifest error or fraud the Expert’s determination of any matters referred to him in accordance with this Schedule shall be final and binding on the parties.

4.9

If an appointed Expert dies or becomes unwilling or incapable of acting, or does not deliver his determination within the period required by this paragraph 4:

(a)

the parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to agree the identity and terms of appointment of a replacement Expert;

(b)

if the parties fail to agree and appoint a replacement Expert within ten (10) Business Days of a replacement being proposed in writing by one party, then either party may apply to the President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales to discharge the appointed Expert and to appoint a replacement Expert; and

(c)

this paragraph 4 shall apply in relation to each and any replacement Expert as if he were the first Expert appointed.

4.10

Each party shall act reasonably and co-operate to give effect to the provisions of this paragraph 4 and shall not do anything to hinder or prevent the Expert from reaching his determination.

4.11

Each party shall bear its own costs in relation to the reference to the Expert. The Expert will direct that his fees shall be borne by the parties on the general principle that costs should follow the event on a proportionate basis, except where it appears to the Expert that, in the circumstances, this is not appropriate in relation to the whole or part of such costs.

Conduct of business during the Earn-out Period

5.1

In order to protect and safeguard the Sellers’ potential entitlement to the Earn-out Payments, the Buyer covenants with the Sellers that, during the Earn-out Period:

(a)

the Buyer will act in good faith towards the Sellers having regard to the interest of the Sellers in relation to the Earn-out Payments;

(b)

the business of the Company shall be under the day to day management of Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xx Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Pack and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxxx (for as long as each of them continues to be an employee of the Company);

100

(c)

the Buyer will maintain sufficient working capital in the Company to allow it to operate normally. The Buyer may move cash out of the Company to other WTG Group companies, including by way of loans, provided that this does not create insolvency or working capital constraints which interfere in the normal course of Company’s business;

(d)

the Sellers are supplied with:

	(i)	monthly financial reports;

	(ii)	quarterly financial statements; and

	(iii)	a quarterly earn-out statement reflecting the latest Earn-Out Payment projections;

5.2

The Sellers agree that the Buyer will be allowed to undertake any and all actions necessary to run the business.

5.3

If the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group proposes to do or impose on the Company any deliberate act which will or would reasonably be expected to have a negative effect on the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 2018 EBITDA of not less than £25,000 then the Buyer may only carry out such act if one of the following applies:

(a)

the written consent of the Sellers’ Representative has been given; or

(b)

if the Buyer elects the acceleration of the Earn-out Payments by paying in full of the maximum possible Earn-out Payment (being £10,000,000 less the amount of any Earn-out Payment already made), or as otherwise agreed in writing with the Sellers; or

(c)

if the following process is followed:

(i)

the Buyer shall give the Sellers’ Representative at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice before carrying out the act in question, including details of any mitigating actions and/or adjustments it proposes to make to the calculation of the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 2018 EBITDA to compensate for the proposed act or omission (a “Buyer Adjustment Notice”);

(ii)

the Sellers’ representative may, within 10 Business Days of receiving a Buyer Adjustment Notice provide the Buyer with a notice in writing stating his good-faith estimate of the adjustments required to be made to the calculation of the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 2018 EBITDA to compensate for the proposed act or omission (a “Seller Adjustment Notice”) AND if he fails to give notice under this paragraph (ii) above he shall be deemed to consent to the proposed act and accept the mitigating actions and/or adjustments (if any) proposed by the Buyer, in each case as set out in the Buyer Adjustment Notice;

(iii)

if the Sellers’ Representative delivers a Seller Adjustment Notice in accordance with paragraph (ii), the Buyer and the Sellers shall have a period of 5 Business Days in which they will negotiate in good faith to agree the amount of a write back (of an amount necessary to

101

compensate for the adverse impact on EBITDA) into the relevant Earn-out Statement in respect of the First Earn-out Year and/or the Second Earn-out Year (as appropriate). If the Buyer and Sellers cannot agree on the amount of such adjustment, within those 5 Business Days of the delivery of a Seller Adjustment Notice, the matter shall be referred to the decision of an Expert in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 4 of this Schedule 9 as if the proposed adjustment were a Resolution Notice; and

(iv)

for the avoidance of doubt so long as the process outlined above is followed there shall be no requirement for the Buyer to wait for completion of the process before carrying out the relevant act.

5.4

the diversion or redirection of the business carried on by, or the custom of any customer or client of the Company and/or the US Subsidiary at Completion away from the Company and/or the US Subsidiary unless such diversion or redirection is accompanied by and conditional upon inter-company accounting which, in the reasonable opinion of the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer, compensates the full amount of the effect on EBITDA;

(f)

any step for the winding up or dissolution of, or appointment of an administrator, receiver or receiver and manager, to the Company and/or the US Subsidiary or any part of their assets or undertaking, or any similar or analogous process unless the Company and/or the US Subsidiary (as applicable) becomes unable to pay its debts as they fall due;

5.6

set-off rights

6.1

If, on or at any time prior to the date that the Earn-Out Payments fall due (each an “Earn-out Payment Date” or together the “Earn-out Payment Dates”), a Due Amount is outstanding, the Buyer shall be entitled to satisfy all (to the extent possible) or part of the Sellers’ liability to pay the Due Amount by way of set-off against either one or both of the Earn-Out Payments, and to treat its obligation to make the relevant Earn-Out Payment(s) as being reduced pro tanto by the amount so set off.

6.2

If on any Earn-out Payment Date there is an Outstanding Claim, the Buyer shall be entitled (at its sole discretion) to withhold from the Earn-out Payment an amount equal to the Estimated Liability (if any) or, if the Earn-out Payment is lower than the

103

Estimated Liability, the full amount of the Earn-out Payment (“Earn-Out Reserved Sum”) and shall pay the balance of the Earn-out Payment in accordance with paragraph 6.3 of this Schedule. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount may be withheld pursuant to this paragraph 6.2 in respect of an Outstanding Claim in respect of which no Estimated Liability has been agreed by the Buyer and the Sellers or opined by Counsel in accordance with the definition of Estimated Liability set out in clause 1.1

6.3

Where an Earn-Out Reserved Sum has been withheld by the Buyer pursuant to paragraph 6.2 in respect of an Outstanding Claim, upon that claim becoming a Resolved Claim the Buyer shall:

(a)

be entitled (at its sole discretion) to satisfy all (to the extent possible) or part of the Seller’s liability to pay the Due Amount in respect of the relevant Resolved Claim by way of set-off against the corresponding Earn-Out Reserved Sum, and to treat its obligation to pay the Earn-Out Reserved Sum as being reduced pro tanto by the amount so set off; and

(b)

to the extent that the Due Amount is less than the Earn-out Reserved Sum pay to the Sellers the balance of the corresponding Earn-Out Reserved Sum (if any) after the Buyer has exercised its rights pursuant to paragraph 6.3(a) in accordance with the proportions set out in Schedule 1. Such payment shall be made by the Buyer within 5 Business Days of the Outstanding Claim becoming a Resolved Claim.

6.4

Nothing in this paragraph 6 shall prejudice, limit or otherwise affect:

(a)

any right or remedy the Buyer may have against the Sellers from time to time, whether arising under this Agreement or any of the documents executed pursuant to this agreement; or

(a)

the Buyer’s right to recover against the Sellers, whether before or after any Earn-out Payment is made in accordance with this agreement,

save to the extent that any such right or remedy, or Losses relating thereto, has been satisfied by the application of this paragraph 6.

6.5

The amount of a Earn-Out Reserved Sum withheld by the Buyer in accordance with this paragraph 6 shall not be regarded as imposing any limit on the amount of any claims under this agreement or any of the documents executed pursuant to this agreement.

6.6

If a Due Amount is not satisfied in full by way of set-off under paragraph 6.1 or 6.3, nothing in this agreement shall prevent any right of the Buyer to recover the balance of the Due Amount from the Sellers (to the extent not so satisfied) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.7

In the event that the Company’s agreement with Texas Instruments Incorporated (“TI”) relating to the Company’s use of TI’s Release 10 Intellectual Property is terminated by TI then the Sellers agree that the Buyer’s obligation to pay and the Seller’s right to receive any unearned Earn-out Payments shall immediately lapse

104

unless the Company is lawfully able to continue to use the Release 10 Intellectual Property of Texas Instruments for the remainder of the Earn-out Period on materially the same terms and which allow such Release to be used in a manner which is consistent with past practice and in accordance with the Company’s business requirements in relation thereto, and for these purposes “unearned Earn-out Payments” shall mean any Earn-out Payment in respect of an Earn-out Year which has not ended at the time of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, any Earn-out Payment in respect of an Earn-out Year which has ended on the date of termination shall remain payable by the Buyer notwithstanding that it has not been paid, or has not been agreed or determined pursuant to this Schedule 9.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PROCESSES

7.1

There will be no capitalization of R&D expenses for the purposes of calculating the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 0000 XXXXXX;

7.2

Deferred revenue recognition will assign fair value measurement, consistent with UK GAAP and past practice of the Company in the UK (so the amounts assigned to software will be consistent with the Company’s existing price lists and previous sales), of any multiple element arrangements such that, there will be deferred revenue liabilities recorded for any undelivered elements of a contract, specifically, software development requirements which require additional R&D and software customization requirements which require additional costs and R&D. Fair value will be assigned and separate revenue recognition for the following, to the extent included in the contract:

(a)

the software license;

(b)

obligations related to software development or next generation releases, or customization requirements; and

(c)

continued support or maintenance.

7.3

Any adjustments which have been agreed or determined in accordance with paragraph 5.3(c) of this Schedule 9.

7.4

The Sellers acknowledge the need for:

(a)

a qualified Chief Financial Officer and agrees to work with Buyer for the recruitment, selection, and employment of a full time and permanent Chief Financial Officer; and

(b)

legal counsel involvement in customer contract drafting, negotiation and execution.

Accordingly the Sellers agree that the costs of the above matters will be included in the Earn-out Payments calculations up to a maximum of £200,000 over and above the original 2017/2018 budgeted plan costs of £22,759. For the avoidance of doubt, the cost of UK regulatory compliance and legal representation (for matters other than those referred to above) are considered to be part of the ordinary course of business and will be fully recognized in the earn-out calculations with no cap.

7.5

The Sellers and Buyer agree:

105

(a)

to follow the accounting principles of matching, whereby the business unit which recognizes revenue will also recognize the direct costs of that revenue. So, in the instance whereby the Company or the US Subsidiary is assisted in winning and recognizing new business through the Buyer’s direct and indirect channels, the cost of that new business in the form of commission payments will be recognized by the Company or the US Subsidiary through intercompany accounts (if paid directly by the Buyer or any member of its Group), or directly by the Company or the US Subsidiary (if paid direct) and recognised in the relevant Earn-out Statement;

(b)

that no indirect corporate overhead allocations relating to the US operations of the Buyer’s Group (which have no benefit to the Company) such as that related to public company costs, filing costs, executive management, or compliance are to be recognized in the Earn-out Statement calculations;

(c)

no time keeping for R&D time and inquiries are to be included in intercompany accounting for purposes of the Earn-out Statement calculations, unless, Xxx Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx xx Xxxxx Xxxxx agree in writing before-hand either on a project scope and cost or in respect of a sufficiently material level of on-going and/or ad hoc time and inquiries, which in either such case would then be included in intercompany charges and the Earn-out Statement calculations;

(d)

any employees hired in the US for the benefit of the Company or the US Subsidiary (with the approval of the Sellers) will be included as an appropriate intercompany cost transfer and recognized in the Earn-out Statement calculations;

(e)

all T&E costs are to be borne by each side respectively, with the Company’s T&E costs being reflected in the Earn-Out Payment calculations;

(f)

to the extent that EBITDA is reduced by any payment of the Employee Loyalty Bonus, such reduction will be reversed in the Earn-out Statement; and

(g)

to the extent that EBITDA is reduced by any matter giving rise to an Indemnity Claim, the reduction will be reversed in the Earn-out Statement to the extent of any payment by the Sellers pursuant to such Indemnity Claim.

7.6

The full amount of the PKF Fee will be added back to EBITDA.

7.7

To the extent that any act or acts of the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group which would have required one of the steps referred to at paragraph 5.3(a), 5.3(b) or 5.3(c) of this Schedule to be followed but for the requirement in paragraph 5.3 for such act to have a negative effect on the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 2018 EBITDA of not less than £25,000 have, in the aggregate, had a negative effect on the 2017 EBITDA and/or the 2018 EBITDA of not less than £50,000, there shall be added back to the relevant EBITDA an amount equal to such negative effect. For the avoidance of doubt, no act in respect of which any of the steps referred to at paragraph 5.3(a), 5.3(b) or 5.3(c) was taken shall be included in such aggregate calculation.
