and Xx Xxxxxxxxx shall lose all entitlement to such sum(s) under this
Agreement.
9.2. For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that a Driver 4 Claim is brought
by Xx Xxxxxxxxx after the date of this Agreement, shall not in and of

clause 9.1, that Xx Xxxxxxxxx has breached the warranty at clause 6.5
that he has no intention, as at the date of this Agreement, to
institute proceedings concerning any Driver 4 Claims. All other
remedies that the Company may have in respect of any breach by Xx
Xxxxxxxxx of the warranty at clause 6.5 that he has no intention, as at
