6.4: The Executive warrants that the Executive is not aware of any circumstances which may give rise to any Excepted Claim.

7. Waiver of Contractual Claims

The Executive waives all claims of any kind which the Executive is or might be entitled to make against the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person arising out of or in connection with the Executive's employment, directorships and/or the Employment Contract including, for the avoidance of doubt, the LTIP and Performance Share Unit Programme, but excluding the Excepted Claims.

8. Full and Final Settlement

8.1: Save for the Excepted Claims the Executive accepts the terms of this Agreement in full and final settlement of all and any claims (including but not limited to the Specific Claims) or other rights of action or costs and expenses whatsoever and howsoever arising including any common law or statutory claims whatsoever (whether under the laws of England and Wales, the European Union or any other law) which the Executive has or may have against the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person arising out of or in connection with the Executive's employment or its termination, the Employment Contract, the LTIP, the Performance Share Unit Programme, the Executive's directorships or their termination or any other matter whether or not they are or could be in the contemplation of the parties at the time of signing this Agreement.
8.2: The Executive and the Company each acknowledge that it is their express intention when entering into this Agreement that (save for the Excepted Claims) it covers all future claims which the Executive has or may have against the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person arising out of or in connection with the Executive's employment or its termination or directorships or their termination, whether known or unknown to one or other or some or all of them, and whether or not the factual or legal basis for the claim is known or could have been known to one or other or some or all of them or may arise in the future. In particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Executive agrees that should a claim, of the nature referred to in this Clause, in law or fact emerge which was not known or foreseeable or contemplated at the date of this Agreement the Executive acknowledges that there will be no recourse or remedy in respect of that claim.

9. Repayment

If the Executive breaches (either in part or in its entirety) Clause 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14 and/or 17 of this Agreement, or notwithstanding these Clauses takes a claim which these Clauses sought to waive or exclude or if the Executive has made a misrepresentation in these Clauses, the Executive undertakes to repay the Termination Payment to the Company immediately upon demand, such Termination Payment to be recoverable by the Company as a debt.

10. Set Off

For the avoidance of doubt:

(a): if the Executive's rights (whether past present or future) under any of the statutory provisions or EU legislation or contractual provisions referred to in this Agreement have not been validly and lawfully excluded by the provisions of this Agreement (which is not admitted); and
(b): if the Executive exercises such rights (or any of them); and
(c): if an Employment Tribunal or other Court should find that any compensation is payable to the Executive by the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person as a consequence;

the Termination Payment shall be deducted (so far as may be requisite) from any award of compensation and/or costs in diminution or extinction of that award.

11. Remedies for Breach of Confidentiality Restrictions

The Executive acknowledges and agrees that:

(a): damages would not be an adequate remedy in respect of any breach of the terms of clause 5 of this Agreement;

(b): in the event that the Executive obtains, directly or indirectly, any financial or other reward for acting in breach of clause 5 of this Agreement, the Executive shall pay to the Company a sum equal to the profits, without deduction of any expenses which the Executive may have incurred, and shall make available on demand any information reasonably required in order to determine the amount of any sum owed, including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) any financial records or copies of any contract or agreement.

12. Tax and National Insurance

The Company is proceeding on the basis that the first £30,000 of the Compensation Payment will not be subject to the deduction of income tax and national insurance. However, the amount of tax to be deducted is ultimately a matter for HMRC to decide and the Executive will be responsible for the payment of any additional income tax and employee's national insurance contributions in connection with the Termination Payment. The Executive undertakes fully and properly to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and any Associated Company and any Associated Person on a continuing basis against any demand for tax (including employee's national insurance contributions) which may become payable by or on behalf of the Executive arising from the termination of the Executive's employment and/or from the arrangements set out in this Agreement and all and any liabilities (including interest, penalties, reasonable costs, claims or other expenses) which the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person may incur in relation to the failure of the Executive to pay any such tax demand, those sums to be paid by the Executive to the Company within seven (7) days of the receipt by the Executive of written confirmation from the Company of the sums so due.

13. Assistance with Claims

In the event of a claim being brought against the Company or any Associated Company or any Associated Person as a result of or otherwise connected to the period of the Executive's employment with the Company, the Executive undertakes to provide all such information, co-operation and assistance as the Company may reasonably require in the defence of that claim provided that the Company meets the Executive's reasonable expenses in respect of it.

14.1: The Executive warrants that the Executive has taken independent legal advice from Rustom Tata of DMH Xxxxxxxx (the "Adviser") who is a "relevant independent adviser" (as defined by Section 147 of the Equality Xxx 0000 and Section 203(3) of the ERA (as amended)) on the terms and effect of this Agreement and in particular its effect on the Executive's ability to pursue the Executive's rights before an Employment Tribunal.
14.2: The Executive warrants that the Adviser has confirmed to the Executive that at the time of the Executive taking the legal advice referred to above the Adviser had a policy of insurance or an indemnity provided for members of a professional body covering the risk of claim by the Executive in respect of any loss arising in consequence of such advice.
14.3: The Executive agrees and warrants that, having taken legal advice from the Adviser, the Specific Claims are all the claims (whether statutory or otherwise) which the Executive has or may have against the Company and/or its Associated Companies and/or any Associated Person and the Executive confirms that the Executive has raised all relevant facts and matters pertaining to the employment, the term of employment and the termination of the Executive's employment with the Adviser and the Company and the Executive acknowledges that the Company enters into this Agreement in reliance on the warranty given by the Executive in this clause.

14.4: The Executive warrants that the Adviser will sign the Adviser's certificate at Schedule 2 with effect from the date of this Agreement.
