(b)	indemnify Pfizer against all actions, proceedings, costs, damages, claims and demands in respect of any failure on the part of Purchaser to carry out, perform and discharge those obligations and liabilities after the Closing Date; and

(c)	abstain from claiming any damages against Pfizer in case of termination of the [**] Contract by [******].

Section 7.8. Environmental Matters.

(a)

Pfizer shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all Environmental Liabilities whether known or unknown, hidden or concealed arising from or related to Pfizer’s operation or occupation, prior to closing, of the Real Property and of the Storm Water System (including against the satisfaction by Purchaser of any liabilities, requirements or obligations deemed to have been assumed by Purchaser as a condition of transfer to Purchaser of IPPC Licence Number P0864-01 (the “IPPC Licence”)). The indemnity made in this Section 7.8(a) shall terminate and expire on, and no action or proceeding seeking damages or other relief thereunder shall be commenced after [****] from the Closing Date, unless prior to such anniversary date a claim with respect thereto shall have been made by written notice given under Section 8.2. It shall be a pre-condition of Purchaser’s right to claim against Pfizer under this Section 7.8(a) that written notification of any such claim is received by Pfizer no later than the second anniversary of the date of Closing. This indemnity provided for under this Section 7.8(a) shall be Purchaser’s sole remedy under this Agreement in relation to Environmental Liability and is subject to, without limitation, the limitation contained in Section 8.5(a).

(b)

Purchaser agrees to accept a transfer of the IPPC Licence from the EPA, as amended in the manner specified in Section 4.1(b). Pfizer and the Purchaser will do all that is reasonably required to apply for the consent of the EPA to the transfer of the IPPC Licence noted above to the Purchaser and the Purchaser agrees that the full application for the transfer of the IPPC Licence(s) with all necessary accompanying documentation shall be lodged with the EPA as soon as is reasonably practicable after the date of this

Agreement and the Purchaser shall promptly assist Pfizer with providing any information, documentation, assurances bonds, financial guarantees or provisions and attending any meetings which Pfizer or the EPA may require and shall generally assist Pfizer in obtaining such consent as soon as possible with the minimum of conditions to be complied with before the transfer of the IPPC Licence(s) can take place. Subject to the following sentence, the Purchaser shall comply with any terms or conditions of the consent of the EPA or any pre-conditions to such consent or the transfer and shall promptly agree, execute and deliver or provide any documentation, information or items required by the EPA (including any covenants and undertakings regarding financial provision for the future decommissioning of the Real Property). In the case of any conditions or pre-conditions to the EPA’s consent to transfer or amendment of the IPPC Licence which require Remedial Action in respect of environmental conditions existing on or prior to Closing, each Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy such condition or pre-condition but Purchaser shall have no legal obligations to incur or agree to incur any costs associated with such Remedial Action.

Section 7.9. Insurance. As of the Closing Date, the coverage under all insurance policies related to the Pfizer Business shall continue in force only for the benefit of Pfizer and its Affiliates and not for the benefit of Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to arrange for its own insurance policies with respect to the Purchased Assets covering all periods and agrees not to seek, through any means, to benefit from Pfizer’s or its Affiliates’ insurance policies which may provide coverage for claims relating in any way to the Pfizer Business on or prior to the Closing Date.

Section 7.10. Notification of Certain Matters. Pfizer shall give prompt notice to Purchaser of the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event, the occurrence or non-occurrence of which would be reasonably likely to cause any warranty of Pfizer contained in this Agreement to be given as at Closing to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect at or prior to the Closing or a failure of Pfizer to comply with, or satisfy in any material respect, any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder.

(b)

Purchaser shall give prompt notice to Pfizer of the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event, the occurrence or non-occurrence of which would be reasonably likely to cause any warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement to be given as at Closing to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect at or prior to the Closing or a failure of Purchaser to comply with, or satisfy in any material respect, any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder.

(c)	The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7.10 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the Party receiving such notice.

ARTICLE VIII

CLAIMS, CAPS, THRESHOLDS AND EXPIRATION

Section 8.1. Mitigation.

Purchaser and Pfizer shall each take and shall cause their respective Affiliates to take all reasonable actions to mitigate any Loss in respect of which one Party is liable to the other Party under this Agreement upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring reasonable costs to remedy the breach which gives rise to such Loss.

Section 8.2. Notice of Claims

(a)

If any of the Parties (each, a “Claimant”) has suffered or incurred any Loss arising out of a breach of this Agreement, it shall so notify the Party whom it alleged has been in breach (the “Breaching Party”) promptly in writing describing such Loss, the amount or estimated amount thereof, if known or reasonably capable of estimation, and the method of computation of such Loss, all with reasonable particularity and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or certificate delivered pursuant hereto in respect of which such Loss shall have occurred. If any action is instituted by or against a third party with respect to which the Claimant intends to make a claim against the Breaching Party under this Agreement, the Claimant shall promptly notify the Breaching Party of such action and permit the Breaching Party to participate in and control the defense of such action. A failure to give such notice in a timely manner pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall not limit the obligation of the Breaching Party under this Article VIII, except (i) to the extent such Breaching Party is materially prejudiced thereby or (ii) as provided by Section 8.4 below.

(b)

Except when a notice, report or other filing must be filed immediately pursuant to an express requirement of applicable Laws, the Breaching Party will provide notice and an opportunity to comment to the Claimant before the Breaching Party files any report, notification or filing with any Governmental Authority or third party in connection with an event that would be reasonably likely to result in a Loss. In the event the Claimant is required to file any report, notification or filing immediately, the Claimant Party will provide simultaneous notice to the Breaching Party when it files such report with the Governmental Authority.

Section 8.3. Third Party Claims.

(a)

The Breaching Party under this Article VIII shall have the right, but not the obligation, to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, any third party claim, action, suit or proceeding (a “Third Party Claim”), and the Breaching Party may compromise or settle the same; provided that the Breaching Party shall give the Claimant advance notice of any proposed compromise or settlement and shall not compromise or settle any claim unless and until it has consulted with the Claimant. No Claimant may compromise or settle any Third Party Claim for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Breaching Party. The Breaching Party shall permit the Claimant to participate in the defense of any such action or suit through counsel chosen by the Claimant; provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Claimant. If the Breaching Party elects not to

control or conduct the defense or prosecution of a Third Party Claim, the Breaching Party shall still have the right to participate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ counsel of its own choosing for such purpose.

(b)

The Parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim, with such cooperation to include (i) the retention and the provision of the Breaching Party records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and (ii) the making available of employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Section 8.4. Expiration. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Closing shall have occurred, all covenants, agreements, and warranties made herein shall survive the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all warranties made herein in Sections 5 and 6 and all liability for the warranties made herein in Sections 5 and 6 shall terminate and expire on, and no action or proceeding seeking damages or other relief for breach, misrepresentation or inaccuracy with respect thereto shall be commenced after [****] from the Closing Date, unless prior to such date a claim with respect thereto shall have been made by written notice given under Section 8.2. For the avoidance of doubt such time limits in relation to the warranties shall not apply to any indemnities set out in this Agreement including the environmental indemnity set out in Clause 7.8(a).

Section 8.5. Caps and thresholds.

(a)	Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article VIII, Pfizer shall not have any obligation or liability under any provision of this Agreement for Losses (except in respect of breaches of Sections 5.1 and 5.2):

(1)

unless in respect of each individual item, the Loss relating thereto is equal to or greater than [****];

(2)

unless, in respect of Losses which would (save for this section 8.5) be recoverable by Purchaser under Section 7.8(a) (“Environmental Losses”), the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds [****] in which event Pfizer shall be required to pay only the amount of such Losses (subject to (4) below) which exceed [****].

(3)

unless, in respect of all Losses other than Environmental Losses, the aggregate amount of such Losses together with any Environmental Losses exceeds [****]; and

(4)

to the extent which Pfizer’s aggregate liability under this Agreement would exceed a maximum amount of [****].

(b)

All sums payable by Pfizer to the Purchaser under this Agreement shall be paid free and clear of all deductions, withholdings or set off save only as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such deductions or withholdings are required by law, the Pfizer shall be obliged to pay to the

Purchaser such sum as will after such deduction or withholding has been made leave the Purchaser 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.

(c)	If any sum payable by Pfizer to the Purchaser under this Agreement shall otherwise be subject to Tax in the hands of the Purchaser the same obligation to make an increased payment shall apply in relation to such Tax as if it were a deduction or withholding required by law.

Section 8.6. No Limitations

No limitation of any kind whatsoever shall apply in respect of any claim under the Warranties made against Pfizer to the extent that such claim:

(a)	arises from any fraudulent act, fraudulent omission, willful concealment or willful misconduct of Pfizer or its directors, officers, employees or agents; or

(b)	relates to title to the Real Property.

Section 8.7. Losses Net of Recovery. The amount of any Loss for which a claim can be made shall be net of (i) any amounts recovered by the Claimant pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any third party, and (iii) an amount equal to the present value of the tax benefit, if any, attributable to such Loss. If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under this Agreement is determined after payment by the Breaching Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Breaching Party to this Article VIII, the Claimant shall repay to the Breaching Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Breaching Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article VIII had such determination been made at the time of such payment.

Section 8.8. Other Limitations. No claim for breach of or warranty given by Pfizer shall be made by Purchaser if such fact or event was Disclosed by Pfizer in the Disclosure Letter or, in the case of the warranties to be given as of the Closing Date only, if such fact or event was, subject to Section 11.11, Disclosed by Pfizer in the Supplemental Disclosure Letter.

Section 8.9. No Consequential Damages. Except in relation to liability for breach of confidentiality obligations between the Parties or infringement of the Intellectual Property of the other Party or any Affiliate of the other Party, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Party to this Agreement shall be liable to or otherwise responsible to any other Party hereto or any Affiliate of any other Party hereto for any indirect or consequential loss or damage (whether for loss of profit or goodwill, loss of value or otherwise) whether or not advised of such or for any punitive or exemplary damages that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the performance or breach hereof or any liability retained or assumed hereunder (including through either Party’s negligence in relation to performance or non-performance under this Agreement).

Section 8.10. No other remedies.

(a) Subject to Section 4.2(c), anything in the applicable Law to the contrary notwithstanding, no breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or obligation of any Parties set forth herein shall give rise to any right on the other Party to rescind or terminate this Agreement.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the rights and remedies provided for the benefit of the Parties in this Article VIII, shall be in lieu of any other right or remedy available to the relevant Party under any applicable Law or otherwise arising in connection with, or by virtue of, any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or obligation of the relevant Party set forth in this Agreement.

Section 8.11. Changes in Law. Pfizer will not be liable for any claims or Losses to the extent that it arises or is increased or extended as a result of any of the following occurring after Closing with retrospective effect:

(a)	an increase in rates of Tax;

(b)	a change in the law or in any regulation, requirement or code of conduct of any relevant agency or regulatory body; or

(c)	any parliamentary statement, or statement by the Revenue Commissioners concerning any change in Revenue practice.

TERMINATION

Section 10.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)	by written agreement of Purchaser and Pfizer;

(b)

by either Purchaser or Pfizer, by giving written notice of such termination to the other Party, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to 1 December 2011 or such other date agreed in writing by the Parties (unless the failure to consummate the Closing by such date shall be due to the failure of the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement to have fulfilled any of its obligations under this Agreement); or

(c)

by either Pfizer or Purchaser, if any court of competent jurisdiction or other competent Governmental Authority shall have issued a Governmental Order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such Governmental Order or other action shall have become final and non-appealable.

(d)

by Pfizer if, prior to Closing, there is a change of control of the Purchaser and by the Purchaser if, prior to Closing, there is a change of control of Pfizer. For the purpose of this clause, a change of control shall be deemed to have occurred if any Person (other than an Affiliate as at the date of this Agreement of, as the case may be, Pfizer or the Purchaser), after the date of this Agreement, acquires control of the Person concerned. For purposes of this clause, “control” shall be presumed to exist if one of the following conditions is met: (a) in the case of corporate entities, direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the stock or shares having the right to vote for the election of directors, and (b) in the case of non-corporate entities, direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the equity interest with the power to direct the management and policies of such non-corporate entities.

Section 10.2. Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1 hereof, this Agreement shall thereafter become void and have no effect, and no Party hereto shall have any liability to the other Parties hereto or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or employees, except for the obligations of the Parties hereto contained in this Section 10.2 and in Sections 7.1(b), 11.1, 11.7, 11.8, 11.9, 11.12 and 11.13 hereof.

(b)

In the event this Agreement shall be terminated and at such time any Party is in material breach of or default under any term or provision hereof, such termination shall be without prejudice to, and shall not affect, any and all rights to damages that the other Party may have hereunder or otherwise under applicable Law. The damages recoverable by the non-defaulting Party shall include, without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by such Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.2. Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 11.3. Assignment. No Party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto except that a Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement freely to its Affiliates without the other Party’s consent, provided that in the case of any assignment, the assigning Party will remain liable with respect to all of its obligations under this Agreement and provided further that such rights and obligations will be automatically re-assigned to the assignor where the assignee ceases to be an Affiliate of the transferor.

Section 11.4. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Schedules and Exhibits) and the other Transaction Agreements constitute the entire, complete and exclusive agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements, representations and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, other than any written agreement of the Parties that expressly provides that it is not superseded by the Transaction Agreements.

Section 11.5. Fulfillment of Obligations. Any obligation of any Party to any other Party under this Agreement, which obligation is performed, satisfied or fulfilled by an Affiliate of such Party, shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such Party.

Section 11.6. Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than Purchaser, Pfizer, or their successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 11.7. Public Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Parties to this Agreement hereby agrees with the other Parties hereto that, except as may be required to comply with the requirements of any applicable Laws, and the rules and regulations of each stock exchange upon which the securities of either of the Parties is listed, no press release or similar public announcement or communication shall be made or caused to be made concerning the execution or performance of this Agreement unless the Parties shall have consulted and agreed in advance with respect thereto.

Section 11.8. Return of Information. If for any reason whatsoever the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, Purchaser shall promptly return to Pfizer all books and records furnished by Pfizer or any of their respective Affiliates, agents, employees, or representatives (including all copies, summaries and abstracts, if any, thereof) in accordance with the terms of the Secrecy Agreement.

Section 11.9. Transfer Taxes.

All transfer, stamp, registration, recording conveyance, notarial and other such taxes, duties (including any penalties and interest and including those related to the event in which the transfer of business is disregarded by the Tax Authorities) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby shall be borne by the Purchaser.

Section 11.10. VAT.

(a)	The Purchase Price shall be exclusive of any VAT.

(b)

The Parties intend that section 20(2)(c) and Section 26 of the Value Added Tax Consolidation Act 2010 will as far as possible apply to the sale of the Purchased Assets and agree to use their reasonable endeavours to secure that the sale of the Purchased Assets is as far as possible treated as neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services for the purposes of those sections.

(c)

The Parties may agree to apply to a Taxing Authority for a ruling on whether VAT is chargeable on the sale of the Purchased Assets or any part thereof, and if the Taxing Authority has so confirmed in writing, after full disclosure of all material facts, that VAT is chargeable on the sale of the Purchased Assets, or any part thereof, Pfizer shall promptly deliver to the Purchaser a proper VAT invoice in respect of the VAT payable. Following receipt of the VAT invoice, the Purchaser shall pay Pfizer the amount of that VAT on the later of 3 (three) Business Days:

(1) before Pfizer will be required to account to the Taxing Authority for the VAT; or

(2) after receipt of a valid VAT invoice by the Purchaser that meets the requirements outlined under Irish VAT legislation

(d)	For the purposes of disclosing all material facts to the Taxing Authority, Pfizer shall give the Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to comment on any correspondence with the Taxing Authority, and shall make such amendments as the Purchaser reasonably requires.

(e)

If the Purchaser pays Pfizer an amount in respect of VAT and the Taxing Authority notes that all or part of it was not properly chargeable, Pfizer shall repay the amount or relevant part of it to the Purchaser. Pfizer shall make the repayment promptly after the ruling, unless it has already accounted to the Taxing Authority for the VAT. In that case, Pfizer shall apply for a refund of the VAT (plus any interest payable by the Taxing Authority), use reasonable endeavours to obtain it as speedily as practicable, and pay to the Purchaser the amount of the refund and any interest forthwith upon receipt, to the extent received, from the Taxing Authority.

(f)

The VAT records relevant to the Pfizer Business and which Pfizer is liable under VAT law to retain and which have not otherwise been transferred to the Purchaser will be preserved by Pfizer for such period as may be required by VAT law and, during that period, Pfizer will permit the Purchaser reasonable access to them to inspect or make copies of them. Pfizer will not at any time cease to preserve such VAT records without giving the Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to inspect and remove such of them as the Purchaser wishes.

Section 11.11. Supplemental Disclosure Letter

(a)	Pfizer may deliver a Supplemental Disclosure Letter to Purchaser prior to the Closing. The effect of the Supplemental Disclosure Letter shall be as follows:

(1)

the Supplemental Disclosure Letter shall not qualify the warranties in Article V of this Agreement to the extent made or given as at the date of this Agreement;

(2)

any facts or circumstances Disclosed in the Supplemental Disclosure Letter shall, if the facts so Disclosed are, based on the information reasonably available at that time, expected to result in aggregate Losses of equal to or less than [****], be deemed not to qualify the warranties in Article V of this Agreement to the extent made or given as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Warranties”), save that such aggregate Losses which are ultimately recoverable by the Purchaser under the Closing Warranties in respect of any facts or circumstances so Disclosed shall not be greater than [****]; and

(3)

(b)

If Pfizer wishes to deliver a Supplemental Disclosure Letter in accordance with Section 11.11(a) above it shall use all reasonable endeavors to provide a draft of such Supplemental Disclosure Letter to Purchaser at least five Business Days prior to the date on which Pfizer estimates Closing is to take place. Pfizer shall, when providing such draft Supplemental Disclosure Letter, also state in writing therein whether, in its view, for the purposes of Section 11.1(a) the facts so Disclosed are, based on the information reasonably available at that time, expected to result in aggregate Losses of greater than [****] or equal to or less than [****]. This statement shall be definitive for the purposes of Section 11.1(a) above unless Purchaser notifies Pfizer in writing prior to Closing that it disputes such statement. If, following receipt of such Supplemental Disclosure Letter, Pfizer and Purchaser cannot reach agreement in this regard within three Business Days, the following provisions apply:

(1)

either Party may refer the dispute to an independent person agreed by the Parties or, in default of agreement within three Business Days, to an independent person nominated by the President for the time being of Law Society of Ireland (the “Expert”), with a request that the Expert make a decision on the dispute within 10 Business Days of receiving the reference;

(2)

in a reference, the Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator;

(3)

the decision of the Expert is, in the absence of fraud or manifest error, final and binding on both Parties;

(4)

the Parties shall bear the Expert’s costs equally;

(5)

the Parties shall with reasonable expedition endeavor to agree any terms of reference of the Expert or procedures relating to the determination (failing which the Expert shall determine his own terms of reference and the procedures to be applied to the determination of any dispute pursuant to this clause); and

(6)

each Party shall promptly furnish to the Expert all such assistance, documents, information and personnel as the Expert may require for the purpose of the determination.

(c)

Closing shall be delayed pending agreement or determination of whether, for the purposes of Section 11.1(a), any facts or circumstances Disclosed in the Supplemental Disclosure Letter are, based on the information reasonably available at that time, expected to result in aggregate Losses of greater than [****] or equal to or less than [****].

Section 11.12. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement (and any dispute, controversy, proceedings or claims of whatever nature, contractual or non-contractual, arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement or its formation) shall be governed by Irish Law and the Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Irish Courts.

(a)

Each Party irrevocably waives any objection which it might at any time have to the courts of Ireland being nominated as the forum to hear and decide any suit, action or proceeding which may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement or its formation (“Proceeding”) and to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement or its formation (“Disputes”) and agrees not to claim that the courts of Ireland are not a convenient or appropriate forum for any such Proceedings or Disputes and further irrevocably agrees that a judgment in any Proceedings or Disputes brought in any court referred to in this Section 11.12 shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. The expression “counterpart” shall include any executed copy of this Agreement transmitted by facsimile or by pdf or email.

Section 11.14. Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereto are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 11.15. Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under

applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed or caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above.
