2.1 The Majority Sellers agree to sell their Shares to the Buyer and procure that the Minority Shareholders sell their Shares to the Buyer pursuant to clause 7.3, and the Buyer agrees to acquire the Shares from the Sellers on the terms and conditions set out in the Agreement.

2.2 In order to facilitate an efficient process and coverage in the event of a Breach of one or more of the Sellers' Warranties, the Majority Sellers and the Buyer have agreed that the Parties will arrange for buyer’s warranty and indemnity insurance in the name of the Buyer. The W&I Insurance Policy shall limit, on the terms set out therein, the possibility of recourse against the Sellers (except if there is fraud or wilful misconduct from the Sellers in which case the insurance will still be valid but there will be recourse against the Sellers; provided, however, that Buyer shall only have recourse against such Seller having exhibited fraud or wilful misconduct, as the case may be) on the terms and conditions set forth in the W&I Insurance Policy.

3SALE AND PURCHASE OF SHARES

3.1 Pursuant to the terms set out in the Agreement, the Sellers hereby agree to sell and deliver the Shares to the Buyer and with effect from the Closing Date, the Buyer agrees to buy the Shares from the Sellers. All Shares shall be delivered at Closing, and the Buyer shall as of the Closing Date own all rights attaching to the Shares, including title, voting rights and the right to receive dividends, and the Shares and the Treasury Shares shall as of the Closing Date be free of any Third Party Rights.

4PURCHASE PRICE

4.1 The base purchase price for the Shares amounts to [***] (the "Base Purchase Price"). The Base Purchase Price has been derived from an enterprise value of DKK 5,121,500,000, and adjusted for consolidated net interest bearing debt and normalised working capital in the Group as of the Locked Box Date, as further set out in Equity Bridge.

4.2 The Base Purchase Price is to accrue, and the Buyer shall in addition to the Base Purchase Price pay, an compounded and rolled-up interest rate of 2.5% p.a. calculated on the basis of days actually elapsed (based on 360 days per year) from (and excluding) the Locked Box Date until and including the Closing Date (the “Equity Ticker”) (the Base Purchase Price and the Equity Ticker together the “Purchase Price”).

4.3 The Purchase Price is not subject to any adjustment, save as set out in clause 17.4 and any deduction as a result of Leakage, if any, pursuant to clause 5.

5LEAKAGE

5.1 The Sellers (i) represent and warrant on a several (and not joint basis) that no Leakage has occurred from the Locked Box Date until the Signing Date and (ii) undertake to procure that, in the period from the Signing Date until the Closing Date, no Leakage will occur or be declared or agreed upon by the Group.

5.2 Prior to Closing, each of the Sellers' Representative and Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx undertakes to notify the Buyer in writing as soon as practicable if the Sellers' Representative or Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx

becomes aware of a payment or transaction which constitutes or which will constitute, if made, a Leakage.

5.3 Each Seller undertakes (for itself only and not for or on behalf of any other Seller) on a pro rata basis in proportion to the benefit of such Leakage received by each of the Sellers and/or its respective Related Parties, as the case may be, to compensate the Group on a DKK 1 to DKK 1 basis for any Leakage on an after Tax basis (without application of the limitations stated in clauses 16 to 18), subject to clauses 5.4 - 5.5 below.

5.4 If the Buyer, within six (6) months after the Closing Date, identifies that Leakage has occurred during the period from the Locked Box Date until Closing, and no adjustment to the Purchase Price (or an insufficient amount was adjusted to the Purchase Price) in respect of such Leakage, the Buyer is entitled to deliver no later than seven (7) months after the Closing Date a written notice to the Sellers' Representative of any such Leakage, together with reasonable evidence of the Leakage ("Buyer’s Leakage Notice"). The Sellers will be deemed to have accepted such Buyer’s Leakage Notice – and the Sellers thereby agree within 30 Business Days to pay and/or provide payment of any Leakage received by it (which shall be deemed an adjustment of the Purchase Price) – except if the Sellers' Representative delivers a written notice to the Buyer disputing the relevant Leakage (a "Dispute Notice") within 45 Business Days of receipt of the Buyer’s Leakage Notice. Within such period, the Sellers' Representative may at the Sellers’ Representative’s costs reasonably request the Buyer to grant the Sellers' Representative and its advisors access to all information and documentation as well as to the Company's and the Subsidiaries’ management and accounting staff in relation to such Leakage subject to such access being within normal business hours and that the Buyer may refuse access to certain information if the Buyer reasonably believes that it may be used or disclosed in a manner having, or reasonably likely to have, a detrimental effect on the business interests of the Buyer or the Group or the extent such disclosure may in the opinion of the Buyer violate applicable Law.

5.5 If a Dispute Notice is delivered within the period set out in clause 5.4, the Sellers' Representative and the Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to agree the amount of the Leakage. If the Sellers' Representative and the Buyer do not agree on the amount of the Leakage within 20 Business Days of receipt of the Dispute Notice, the amount of the Leakage shall be determined by an internationally recognised auditing firm with no relations to the Majority Sellers nor the Buyer during the preceding 3 years, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties (the “Expert”). In the event the Parties cannot agree on the appointment of the Expert within 20 Business Days from expiry of the period for agreeing the amount of the Leakage, the Expert shall be appointed by FSR – danske revisorer at the request of either the Buyer or the Sellers' Representative.

5.5.1 The Expert shall (i) determine the amount of the Leakage, if any, within 20 Business Days of its appointment, (ii) be entitled to determine the procedure applicable to its determination in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) act as expert only and not as arbitrator and shall not be competent to make decisions concerning the legal interpretation of the Agreement except with respect to this clause 5. The determination by the Expert shall, in the absence of fraud or manifest error, be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to arbitration, cf. clause 22.2. However, if the monetary value of the Leakage is in excess of DKK 10,000,000,

each of the Sellers' Representative and the Buyer shall be entitled to have such disputed items settled by arbitration.

5.5.2 The Expert shall decide on the allocation of the Expert’s costs and expenses between the Buyer on the one side and the Sellers on the other side. The Expert shall take into consideration the degree to which the Expert's resolution on the disputed Items is in favour of the Parties' respective positions.

5.6 If one or more Leakage amounts are agreed or determined by the Expert in accordance with clause 5.4 prior to the Closing Date, the Parties agree that the consideration payable by the Buyer at Closing for the Shares shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Leakage plus interest on such Leakage calculated as an interest rate of 2.5% p.a. calculated on 360 days basis from the date of the relevant Leakage through to the Closing Date.

5.7 If Leakage is agreed or determined after the Closing Date, to the extent such Leakage is not already accounted for pursuant to clause 5.6, the Sellers shall pay to the Buyer, within five (5) Business Days of the agreement on or determination of the Leakage, the Leakage plus interest on such Leakage Amount calculated at an interest rate of 2.5% p.a. calculated on 360 days basis from the date of the relevant Leakage to the date on which the Leakage is paid. Any such payment by the Seller to the Buyer shall be deemed an adjustment of the Purchase Price.

17LIMITATIONS

17.1 Subject to clauses 17.2 and 17.3, the Buyer shall make any and all Claims relating to any Breach by the Sellers of any of the Sellers' Warranties exclusively under the W&I Insurance Policy, and the Buyer is not entitled to pursue any action against the Sellers in respect of any Breach of any of the Sellers' Warranties save for in case such Claim is the consequence of fraud or wilful misconduct by the Sellers on or prior to Closing. Consequently, the Sellers are not liable for and the Buyer has irrevocably and unconditionally released the Sellers of any and all liability for any breach of the Sellers' Warranties, except as explicitly set out in this Agreement.

The Buyer accepts that in the event no W&I Insurance Policy is taken out or the W&I Insurance Policy is terminated for whatever reason, the Sellers shall have no liabilities with respect to the Sellers' Warranties, save in the event of fraud or wilful misconduct or a Breach of the Sellers’ Fundamental Warranties.
