11.4 It may be (or become) a term of the PMI Scheme and/or PHI Scheme that the Executive must remain employed by the Company to be entitled to benefits under the said schemes.

The Executive shall be entitled to sick pay for a period or periods not exceeding an aggregate of 90 working days’ absence in any consecutive twelve month period. Any sick pay shall be paid at the rate of the Executive’s salary (less any deduction for statutory sick pay or other benefit or payments made under any PHI Scheme provided by the Company) and shall be made entirely at the discretion of the Company.

13.5 The Company shall be entitled to deduct from any such remuneration the amount (if any) which the Executive is entitled to claim in consequence of his incapacity by way of state sickness related benefits or by way of income from any health insurance scheme operated by the Company for the benefit of the Executive whether or not a claim is made.

13.6 If the Executive is incapable of performing his duties by reason of any accident, illness or injury or other incapacity caused wholly or partly by any act or omission of any third party in relation to which the Executive may be or become entitled to recover damages or compensation, then all net payments made to the Executive under this clause 13 in respect of the said absence shall be loans to the Executive to be repaid if and to the extent that he recovers damages or compensation for loss of earnings from the said third party and/or from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board or the Motor Insurers’ Bureau or any other similar body by action or otherwise.

11

14.3.1 in the public domain, otherwise than as a result of any unauthorised act or omission on the part of the Executive; or

15. Intellectual Property

15.1 Should the Executive discover or participate in the making or discovery of Intellectual Property in the course of his employment under this agreement (irrespective of whether he was carrying out his normal duties or others specifically assigned to him) then all such Intellectual Property shall belong to the Company absolutely in accordance with the provisions of the Registered Designs Xxx 0000, the Patents Xxx 0000 and the Copyright, Designs and Patent Xxx 0000.

15.2 The Executive will forthwith notify to the Company full details of all Intellectual Property which he may make, discover or participate in the making or discovery during the Appointment whether or not in the course of his employment, under this agreement and will keep the Company appraised at all times of the stage that has been reached in relation to any improvement or creation of such Intellectual Property. If the Company requests (and at its expense) the Executive shall give and supply all such information, data, drawings and assistance as may be required to enable the Company to exploit the Intellectual Property to the best advantage.

15.3 At the Company’s expense but without payment to the Executive, the Executive shall take all steps and carry out all acts that may be necessary to ensure that title to the Intellectual Property is lawfully vested in the Company, including signing all applications and executing any other documents that may be necessary and will carry out such acts and steps with expedition on the instructions of the Company, in particular where the filing of any claim to such Intellectual Property right may give the Company priority.

15.4 The Executive hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as his attorney in his name and on his behalf to execute any documents and generally to act and to use his name for the purpose of giving the full benefit of this clause to the Company (or its nominee). A certificate in writing signed by a director or the secretary of the Company that an instrument or act falls within the authority confirmed by this clause shall be conclusive evidence in favour of a third party that it is the case.

12

15.5 The Executive waives all of his moral rights as defined in the Copyright, Designs and Patents Xxx 0000 in relation to the Intellectual Property which is the property of the Company by virtue of clause 15.1.

15.6 If the Executive makes, discovers or participates in the making or discovery of any Intellectual Property during his Appointment under this agreement but which is not the property of the Company or any Group Company under clause 15.1, the Company shall, subject only to the provisions of the Patents Xxx 0000, have the right to acquire for itself or its nominee the Executive’s rights in the Intellectual Property within three months after disclosure under clause 15.2 on fair and reasonable terms to be agreed or settled by a single arbitrator.

16.1.1 commits any repeated or continued material breach, or any serious breach of his obligations to the Company having first been given a reasonable opportunity to remedy the breach (provided it is capable of remedy) by notification from the Board in writing, but having failed to do so; or
