After 17 October 2005 but before 31 October 2005, the Sellers shall deliver to the Buyer a list (“ATM List”) confirming the total number of ATMs of the Company and the Business which were installed as at 17 October 2005 (the “Installed ATMs”) and highlighting any such ATMs which were not operational as at such date. The ATM List shall be, in relation to the operational ATMs, derived from the LINK Daily Download Report as at 5.30 pm on 17 October 2005 and as regards such operational ATMs shall be final and binding.

6.4

To the extent that the ATM List identifies any non-operational ATMs, the Sellers will provide to the Buyer on or before 2 November 2005 a copy of the LINK Daily Download Report (which confirmation shall be final and binding) confirming which of the non-operational ATMs on the ATM List have, by 31 October 2005 become operational, such ATMs, together with those operational ATMs on the ATM List provided under clause 6.3 above, being together the “Total Operational ATMs Number”.

6.5

At Completion, or if later, on 7 November 2005:

	6.5.1		to the extent that the Total Operational ATMs Number is less than 1182 (“ATM Shortfall Number”) there shall be deducted from the purchase price payable in accordance with clause 6.1 an amount equal to the ATM Shortfall Number x £16,750 or, (if Completion has occurred), the Sellers shall pay to the Buyer, an amount equal to the ATM Shortfall Number x £16,750; and

	6.5.2		to the extent that the Total Operational ATMs Number is more than 1182 (“ATM Excess Number”) then the purchase price payable in accordance with clause 6.1 shall be increased by an amount equal to the ATM Excess Number x £16,750, or (if Completion has already occurred) the Buyer shall pay to the Sellers, an amount equal to the ATM Excess Number x £16,750.

The liability of the Sellers to make the payment under clause 6.5.1 shall be joint and several.

COMPLETION ACCOUNTS

7.1

The Sellers shall use their reasonable endeavours to ensure that a draft of the Completion Accounts is prepared as soon as possible after Completion and delivered to the Buyer on or before the date falling 20 Business Days after Completion, together with the Net Current Liability Statement signed by the Sellers.

7.2

The Completion Accounts shall be drawn up in accordance with the accounting bases, methods and policies set out in part 2 of schedule 9.

7.3

The draft Completion Accounts and the calculation of the Net Current Liability Value set out in the Net Current Liability Statement shall be deemed agreed by the Buyer on the date falling 10 Business Days after the date on which those documents are first delivered to the Buyer and shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes (and shall respectively constitute the Completion Accounts for the purposes of this Agreement and the Net Current Liability Value for the purposes of clause 6), unless during that period the Buyer gives notice to the Sellers that it disagrees with the calculation of the Net Current Liability included in the Net Current Liability Statement. Any notice so given shall include reasonable details (so far as practicable) of the reasons for any disagreement and any suggested adjustment, together with reasonable supporting evidence for each adjustment, including any relevant working papers.

7.4

If any notice is so served by the Buyer during such 10 Business Day period, the Buyer and the Sellers shall attempt in good faith to resolve any matters in dispute and agree a final form of Completion Accounts and the calculation of the Net Current Liability Value on or before the date falling 10 Business Days after the date on which the Sellers receive that notice. The Completion Accounts and the calculation of the Net Current Liability Value so agreed by them shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes (and shall respectively constitute the Completion Accounts for the purposes of this Agreement and the Net Current Liability Value for the purposes of clause 6). In the absence of agreement between the Buyer and the Sellers within that time period, the Independent Accountants shall be instructed to deliver a determination of the matters in dispute and a calculation of the amount of the Net Current Liability Value and revised Completion Accounts adjusted only to take account of the matters determined by them. As so revised, the Completion Accounts shall then constitute the Completion Accounts for the purposes of this Agreement.

7.5

Each party shall promptly provide to the other or the other’s accountants or professional advisers (and to the Independent Accountants) all such documents and information as may reasonably be requested for the purpose of preparing or reviewing the Completion Accounts and the Net Current Liability Statement. The parties’ obligations under this clause shall, without limitation, extend to providing access to or copies of all working papers in their possession or under their control (other than those created by their respective accountants) created in the course of the preparation and/or review of the Completion Accounts and/or Net Current Liability Statement, together (in the case of the Buyer) with extracts from the Company’s and the Business’s accounting records to which the working papers relate or from which the working papers have drawn information, and access upon reasonable notice and during normal working hours to relevant personnel, and to relevant records and information within the possession or under the control, of the relevant party.

APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

8.1

Any matters which this Agreement provides are to be determined by the Independent Accountants may be referred for determination by either the Sellers or the Buyer to:

	8.1.1		KPMG or (if they refuse to accept instructions) Deloitte or (if they refuse to accept instructions) any other independent firm of chartered accountants whose identity is agreed between the Sellers and the Buyer and whose terms of engagement are agreed to and signed by the accountants, the Sellers and the Buyer; or

	8.1.2		if no such firm is agreed or no such terms of engagement are signed on or before the date falling 20 Business Days after the date on which a firm accepts instructions (in the case of KPMG or Deloitte) or in any other case is first proposed by either party to the other for the purpose, such independent firm of chartered accountants on such terms of engagement as shall be chosen or (as the case may be) specified on the application of either party by the President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. If any of the Sellers or the Buyer fails to sign such terms of engagement on or before the date falling five Business Days after the date on which such choice or (as the case may be) specification is made, Independent Accountants shall be deemed to have been appointed and to have determined the matter or matters to be referred to the Independent Accountants under this clause in favour of the party who has signed the terms of engagement.

8.2

The Independent Accountants:

	8.2.1		shall act as experts and not as arbitrators;

	8.2.2		shall decide on the procedure (subject to clause 8.2.3) and timetable to be followed in the determination (provided that, in any event, they shall give the Sellers and the Buyer the opportunity of making such representations as they may reasonably require); and

	8.2.3		shall be required only to determine those matters that this Agreement provides should be determined by them (and not any additional or separate issues subsequently raised by the parties) and deliver such determination and any calculation, statement or accounts required to be provided by them by this Agreement in writing to the parties on or before the date falling 20 Business Days after the date of the appointment of the Independent Accountants.

8.3

In the absence of fraud or manifest error, the decision of the Independent Accountants and any determination and any calculation, statement or accounts required to be provided by them by this Agreement shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be paid by such party or parties as the Independent Accountants shall determine to be appropriate in their sole discretion, having regard to the relative merits of the arguments of each of the parties. In default of a determination by the Independent Accountants as to fees and expenses, they shall be borne as to 50 per cent. by the Buyer and 50 per cent. by the Sellers.

8.4

The Sellers and the Buyer shall each use all reasonable endeavours to co-operate with the Independent Accountants and to enable them to reach their determination within the time period set by this Agreement including by co-operating with any timetable and procedure set by the Independent Accountants. In particular, the Sellers and the Buyer shall each provide each other and the Independent Accountants with or with access to all such documents and information as are in their possession or under their control, and access to all relevant personnel upon reasonable prior notice and during normal working hours, as may from time to time be requested by the Independent Accountants in their absolute discretion. In the event that any of the Sellers or the Buyer does not co-operate with or grant access to or supply any document or information so requested within any time specified by the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accountants shall be entitled to make such assumptions for the purposes of making their determination (including any determination as to costs) as a result of that failure to co-operate, grant access or supply such document or information as they shall in their absolute discretion determine to be appropriate.

	9.5.2		elect to proceed to Completion, in which case the defaulting party shall be obliged to fulfil those obligations under clauses 9.2, 9.3 or clause 9.4, as the case may be, which it is then able to fulfil and to fulfil the remaining obligations on or before any later date specified for the purpose in the notice; or

	9.5.3		if having already given notice under clause 9.5.1 and a period of not less than 20 Business Days having elapsed without each unfulfilled obligation in question having been fulfilled in all material respects, elect not to complete the sale and purchase of the Shares.

GUARANTEES AND INDEBTEDNESS

10.1

The Buyer shall use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that as soon as reasonably practicable after Completion each member of each of the Seller’s Groups is released from any and all subsisting guarantees, security interests and indemnities given by it in relation to the obligations of the Company given by Travelex UK Limited under the Guaranteed Contracts. The Sellers shall co-operate with the Buyer in obtaining such releases and neither the Buyer nor the Guarantor shall be obliged to pay any monies or assume any additional obligations over and above those in the existing guarantees. Pending each such release, the Buyer shall indemnify each relevant member of each of the Seller’s Groups on demand against all Losses actually incurred by that member arising on or after Completion from or in connection with any such guarantee, security interest or indemnity.

10.2

The Sellers shall ensure that at or before Completion the Company is released from any and all guarantees, security interests and indemnities given by it in favour of either of the Sellers or any member of either Seller’s Group and the Buyer’s Group shall have no liability in respect thereof and the Sellers shall indemnify each member of the Buyer’s Group on demand and against all Losses actually incurred by that member arising from or in connection with any such guarantee, security or indemnity.

10.3

To the extent that the same is not included in the Actual Exchange Debt (as defined in clause 10.5 below) the Sellers shall procure that the Company discharges all trade creditors of, and amounts accrued by, the Company as at the date of this Agreement relating to the acquisition and installation of fixed assets (together with any interest and penalties thereon) and shall indemnify the Buyer in respect of all Losses incurred by it as a result of any failure so to do.

10.4

The purchase price set out in clause 6.1 is calculated on the basis that the aggregate amount of the Borrowings, Inter-Company Debts and Shareholder Loans as at the date of this Agreement (“Estimated Exchange Debt”) is £15,594,000.

10.5

The Sellers shall, prior to Completion, notify the Buyer of:

	10.5.1		the actual aggregate amount of the Borrowings, Shareholder Loans and Inter-Company Debts as at the date of this Agreement (“Actual Exchange Debt”);

	10.5.2		the amount (if any) by which the aggregate amount of the Borrowings, Shareholder Loans and Inter-Company Debts as at Completion exceeds the Actual Exchange Debt (“Excess Debt”); and

	10.5.3		the amount of the Excess Debt which is not attributable to ATM Capital Expenditure (as defined below) (“Non-ATM Excess Debt”).

For the purposes of this clause 10.5, “ATM Capital Expenditure” shall mean expenditure on the acquisition, installation and upgrade of any ATMs attributable to any ATMs acquired, installed or upgraded in excess of the Total Operational ATMs Number (as defined in clause 6.3) and any further expenditure as agreed between the Buyer and the Sellers.

10.6

The Sellers’ calculation of the Actual Exchange Debt, the Excess Debt and the amount of the Non-ATM Excess Debt shall be deemed agreed by the Buyer on the date falling 10 Business Days after the date on which those documents are first delivered to the Buyer and shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes unless during that period the Buyer gives notice to the Sellers that it disagrees with such amounts. Any such notice shall give reasonable details (so far as is practicable) of the reasons for any disagreement and any suggested adjustment, together with reasonably supporting evidence.

10.7

If any notice is served by the Buyer during such 10 Business Day period, the Sellers and the Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve any matters in dispute and agree the amounts of the Actual Exchange Debt, the Excess Debt and the amount of the Non-ATM Excess Debt on or before the date falling 10 Business Days after the date on which the Sellers receive that notice. Such amounts as agreed will be final and binding on the parties for all purposes. In the absence of agreement between the Buyer and the Sellers within that time period, the Independent Accountants shall be instructed to deliver a determination of the matters in dispute in accordance with clause 8 and confirm the amounts of the Actual Exchange Debt, the Excess Debt and the amount of the Non-ATM Excess Debt. Each party shall promptly provide to the other or the other’s accountants or professional advisers (and to the Independent Accountants) all such

documents and information as may reasonably be requested for the purpose of preparing or reviewing the calculations of Actual Exchange Debt, Excess Debt and Non-ATM Debt. The parties’ obligations under this clause shall, without limitation, extend to providing access to or copies of all working papers in their possession or under their control (other than those created by their respective accountants) created in the course of the preparation and/or review of such calculations, together (in the case of the Buyer) with extracts from the Company’s and the Business’s accounting records to which the working papers relate or from which the working papers have drawn information, and access upon reasonable notice and during normal working hours to relevant personnel, and to relevant records and information within the possession or under the control, of the relevant party.

10.8

If prior to Completion, the amount of the Actual Exchange Debt, the Excess Debt and the Non-ATM Excess Debt is agreed or determined in accordance with clauses 10.6 and 10.7, then:

	10.8.1		the amount (if any) of the Non-ATM Excess Debt shall be deducted from; and/or

	10.8.2		the amount (if any) by which the Actual Exchange Debt exceeds the Estimated Exchange Debt shall be deducted from; or

	10.8.3		the amount (if any) by which the Actual Exchange Debt is less than the Estimated Exchange Debt shall be added to;

the amount payable for the Shares pursuant to clause 6.1. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause 10.8, the Buyer shall procure that the aggregate of the Borrowings, Shareholder Loans and Inter-Company Debts is repaid at Completion in accordance with clause 9.4.6.

10.9

In the event that the Buyer and the Sellers fail to agree the calculation of the Actual Exchange Debt, the Excess Debt and the Non-ATM Excess Debt, prior to Completion, then:

	10.9.1		the Sellers shall indemnify the Buyer for the amount (if any) of the Non-ATM Excess Debt;

	10.9.2		the Sellers shall indemnify the Buyer for the amount (if any) by which the Actual Exchange Debt exceeds the Estimated Exchange Debt; or

	10.9.3		the Buyer shall indemnify the Sellers for the amount (if any) by which the Actual Exchange Debt is less than the Estimated Exchange Debt;

together in each case with interest accruing from day to day, both before and after judgment from the Completion Date on the date of payment at a rate of two per cent above the base rate for the time being of Barclays Bank Plc.

10.10

The Liability of the Sellers pursuant to clause 10.9 shall be joint and several.

10.11

For the avoidance of doubt, all cash in hand and at bank of the Company at Completion shall be for the account of the Sellers.

Each Seller acknowledges that the above provisions of this clause are no more extensive than is reasonable to protect the Buyer as the acquirer of the Shares.

13.8

In this clause 13, “Restricted Activity” means the operation of any ATM in the United Kingdom which dispenses the national currency for the time being of the United Kingdom, but excludes:

	13.8.1		acting as “landlord” (and carrying out maintenance activities) in relation to a site on which an ATM is installed, where that ATM is operated by a third party paying a fee to the relevant Seller (whether that fee is fixed or calculated by turnover or determined in any other way) provided that no Seller shall be in any way otherwise involved in the operation of the ATM in question or the processing of transactions in relation to that ATM;

	13.8.2		operating any ATM installed at any site (including for example but without limitation an airport terminal) at which Travelex UK Limited or any member of its Seller’s Group carries on any foreign exchange business, whether or not the ATM in question is located in the bureau at which that foreign exchange business is carried on; and

	13.8.3		operating any ATM which utilises so-called “Dynamic Currency Conversion” technology;

provided that for a period of two years following Completion, before carrying on any activity falling within the scope of clauses 13.8.1 and 13.8.2 in relation to any ATM installed after the date of Completion or in respect of which the existing contract terminates after Completion, or before carrying on any activity falling with the scope of clause 13.8.3, Travelex UK Limited shall (where relevant, to the extent permitted by any relevant landlord or superior landlord) first offer the Buyer a right of first refusal with regard to the financial and operational terms on which the ATM in question is to be operated as set out in clauses 13.9 to 13.13 below.

13.9

The Buyer shall within five Business Days after being notified pursuant to clause 13.8 advise Travelex UK Limited that it wishes to enter into negotiations for the operation of the ATM(s) in question. If no such notice is received within such a period the Buyer shall be deemed to have declined the offer of first refusal made by Travelex UK Limited and Travelex UK Limited shall then be free to enter into a contract with any third party for the operation of the ATM(s) in question.

13.10

If the Buyer advises Travelex UK Limited pursuant to clause 13.9 that it wishes to enter into negotiations, Travelex UK Limited agrees to enter into good faith negotiations with the Buyer for a period of 10 Business Days from the date of receipt of the notification pursuant to clause 13.9 (the “Exclusivity Period”) for the operation of the ATM(s) in question and during the Exclusivity

		Period Travelex UK Limited agrees not to enter into any contract with any third party in respect of the operation of such ATM(s).

13.11		If, after the Buyer has given notice in accordance with clause 13.9 but before the end of the Exclusivity Period, the Buyer does not wish to proceed with negotiations with Travelex UK Limited, the Buyer shall notify Travelex UK Limited in writing of that fact and on receipt of such notification Travelex UK Limited shall be entitled to enter into any contract with any third party for the operation of the ATM(s) in question.

13.12		If following expiry of the Exclusivity Period, Travelex UK Limited and the Buyer have failed to agree on the terms of an agreement in relation to the operation of the ATMs in question and Travelex UK Limited subsequently agrees terms with a third party in relation to the operation of the same ATMs, then before entering into any agreement with such third party Travelex UK Limited shall first give the Buyer the opportunity to enter into such agreement, on the same terms as those agreed to by the third party. If the Buyer fails to enter into such agreement within 5 Business Days of receipt of Travelex UK Limited’s offer, then such offer shall be deemed to have been declined by the Buyer and Travelex UK Limited shall be entitled to enter into such agreement with the third party in question.

13.13		If the Buyer and Travelex UK Limited fail to agree on the terms of an agreement in relation to the operation of the ATM(s) within the Exclusivity Period and any offer made by Travelex UK Limited in accordance with clause 13.12 is not accepted or is deemed to have been declined, then Travelex UK Limited shall then be entitled to enter into a contract with any third party for the operation of the ATM(s) in question.

	14.2.3		any unenforceability or invalidity of any obligation of the Buyer or the Company, so that this clause shall be construed as if there were no such unenforceability or invalidity.

1.3		For the purposes of this paragraph 1, a Warranty Claim or a Tax Claim which is based on more than one event or circumstance, each of which would separately give rise to a Warranty Claim or Tax Claim, shall be treated as a separate Warranty Claim or Tax Claim, as the case may be, in respect of each event or circumstance.

1.4		The maximum aggregate liability of the Sellers in respect of all claims by the Buyer to be indemnified under clause 4.4 all Warranty Claims and Tax Claims and all claims by TRM (ATM) Limited to be indemnified under clause 5.3 of the Business Sale Agreement and all Warranty Claims under the Business Sale Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of:

	1.4.7		plus any increase in the purchase price pursuant to clause 10.8 and 10.9.

2.		NOTICES

		If the Buyer becomes aware of any matter which gives rise to a Warranty Claim, the Buyer shall give written notice to the Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable specifying the matter in reasonable detail, the Warranties which have or which are likely to have been breached and so far as is reasonably practicable, its best estimate of the amount of the Warranty Claim or likely Warranty Claim.

3.		TIME LIMITS

3.2		The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a particular Warranty Claim if, on or before the date falling 15 Business Days after the date on which notice of that Warranty Claim is received by the Sellers, the Sellers have remedied the relevant breach or prevented the Buyer from suffering any loss in respect of the subject matter of that Warranty Claim or caused any loss so suffered by the Buyer to be made good. The Buyer shall comply with all reasonable requests made by the Sellers during that period for the purposes of so remedying any such breach or preventing any such loss.

3.3		The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a particular Warranty Claim (if not previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) unless legal proceedings have been validly issued and served on the Sellers on or before the date falling 120 Business Days after the date on which notice of that Warranty Claim was served under paragraph 2.

4.		EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY: GENERAL

4.1		The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of any Warranty Claim to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Warranty Claim was disclosed in the Disclosure Letter in sufficient detail to enable the Buyer to have a reasonable understanding of the nature and scope of the matter disclosed.

4.2		The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a Warranty Claim or the quantum of a Warranty Claim shall be reduced to the extent that the Accounts include specific provision, accrual or other liability, reserve or allowance for any matter relating to the subject of the Warranty Claim.

4.3		The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of a Warranty Claim to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Warranty Claim results from:

	4.3.1		any act or omission before Completion carried out or omitted at the express request of the Buyer or any other member of the Buyer’s Group; or

	4.3.2		any act or omission on or after Completion carried out or omitted by or on behalf of the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group which the Buyer knows or ought reasonably to have known would give rise to a Warranty Claim; or

	4.3.3		any breach by the Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement; or

	4.3.4		any change after Completion in the accounting policies or practices used in preparing the Accounts or in the accounting reference date of the Company; or

4.4

The Sellers shall not be liable in respect of any Warranty Claim to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Warranty Claim constitutes a contingent liability of the Company or relates to a liability which is not capable of being quantified until such liability becomes an actual liability of the Company or becomes capable of being quantified and the time limits in paragraph 3.3 shall not apply provided the claim is notified to the Sellers within the period specified in paragraph 3.1.

		This paragraph shall not relieve the Buyer from any obligation to give notice under paragraph 2 in respect of any matter which constitutes a contingent liability on the Buyer or relates to a liability which is not capable of being quantified.

4.5		Nothing in this schedule 4 applies to liability for any Warranty Claim that arises or is delayed as a result of dishonesty, fraud, wilful misconduct or wilful concealment by either Seller or any member of either Sellers’ Group or employee, former employee, officer, agent or adviser of either Seller or any member of either Sellers’ Group.

5.		RECOVERY FROM THIRD PARTIES

5.1		If the Buyer or the Company becomes aware of any matter which would or might give rise to a Warranty Claim (taking no account of paragraph 1.2 for these purposes) and the Buyer or the Company has or subsequently acquires a right to make recovery or claim indemnity from any third party (including under any policy of insurance) in relation to that matter, then the Buyer shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify the Sellers of the right, and shall comply with the provisions of paragraphs 5.3 to 5.6.

5.2		If any sum is paid by or on behalf of the Sellers in satisfaction of a Warranty Claim, and the Buyer or the Company has or subsequently acquires a right to make recovery or claim indemnity from any third party (including under any policy of insurance) in respect of the matter giving rise to that Warranty Claim, the Buyer shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify the Sellers of the right and the provisions of paragraphs 5.3 to 5.6 shall apply.

5.3		The Buyer shall at the Sellers’ written request and cost (and each of the Sellers hereby agrees to indemnify the Buyer and any member of its Group against all costs incurred by the Buyer or any member of its Group resulting from the Buyer complying with its obligations under this paragraph, including any directly attributable increase in the premium payable on the renewal of any insurance policy) take such action and initiate such proceedings, and give such information and assistance, as the Sellers may from time to time reasonably request to dispute, resist, appeal, compromise, defend, remedy or mitigate the matter or enforce against any person (other than the Sellers) the rights of the Buyer or the Sellers in relation to the matter in question (save that a request from the Sellers shall be deemed to be unreasonable where there is a demonstrable risk that the action requested would materially and adversely affect the Company).

5.4		Whether or not the Sellers make any request under paragraph 5.3, the Buyer shall:

5.4.1

consult with the Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable with regard to any actual or proposed developments relating to the matter in question and provide the Sellers with

			copies of all correspondence and documents they shall reasonably request in relation to that matter; and

	5.4.2		not admit liability in respect of or settle or compromise the matter in question without the prior written consent of the Sellers such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed save where obtaining that consent would materially and adversely affect the Company.

5.5		To the extent that the Buyer or the Company receives any sum or other benefit by reason of the enforcement of any rights such as are referred to in paragraphs 5.1 or 5.2, then either the Sellers’ liability in relation to such Warranty Claim shall be reduced by the Amount Recovered, or if any sum has already been paid by or on behalf of the Sellers in satisfaction of a Warranty Claim, then the Buyer shall pay the Amount Recovered to the Sellers on or before the date falling five Business Days after the date on which that receipt or saving is made. For the purposes of paragraph 1.2 of this schedule, the Sellers shall be deemed never to have been liable to the Buyer in respect of the Amount Recovered.

5.6		For the purposes of paragraph 5.5 of this schedule, the “Amount Recovered” shall be equal to so much of the sum or benefit received (including by way of interest or repayment supplement) by reason of the enforcement of any rights such as are referred to in paragraphs 5.1 or 5.2 as does not exceed the amount claimed by the Buyer in relation to such Warranty Claim or (as the case may be) the payment by or on behalf of the Sellers in satisfaction of the relevant Warranty Claim, less any Taxation payable by the Buyer or the Company in respect of that receipt and less all reasonable costs and expenses of the Buyer and the Company in recovering that receipt or saving.

6.		CONDUCT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS

6.1		In the event that any negotiations with third parties or litigation in connection with any claim, action or demand by a third party which gives rise to an obligation on the Buyer to give notice under paragraph 2 the provisions of paragraphs 6.2 and 6.4 shall apply.

6.2		The Buyer shall at the Sellers’ written request and cost (and each of the Sellers hereby agrees to indemnify the Buyer and any member of its Group against all costs incurred by the Buyer or any member of its Group resulting from the Buyer complying with its obligations under this paragraph, including any directly attributable increase in the premium payable on the renewal of any insurance policy) take such action and initiate such proceedings, and give such information and assistance, as the Sellers may from time to time reasonably request to dispute, resist, appeal,

		compromise, defend, remedy or mitigate the matter in question or enforce against any person (other than the Sellers) the rights of the Buyer or the Sellers in relation to the matter in question (save that a request from the Sellers shall be deemed to be unreasonable where there is a demonstrable risk that the action requested would materially and adversely affect the Company).

6.3		Whether or not the Sellers make any request under paragraph 6.1 the Buyer shall:

	6.3.1		consult with the Sellers as soon as reasonably practicable with regard to any actual or proposed developments relating to the matter in question and provide the Sellers with copies of all correspondence and documents in relation to that matter which the Sellers shall reasonably require; and

	6.3.2		not admit liability in respect of or settle or compromise the matter in question without the prior written consent of the Sellers such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, save where obtaining such consent would materially and adversely affect the Company.

6.4

If there is any dispute between the Sellers and the Buyer as to whether liability in respect of any third party claim should be admitted or whether any claim related to a right of recovery from a third party (under paragraph 5) or a third party claim that claim should be settled or compromised, liability shall not be admitted, and that claim shall not be settled or comprised, other than in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. Any such dispute shall be referred to leading counsel agreed between the Sellers and the Buyer or, in default of agreement on or before the date falling five Business Days after the date on which an individual is first proposed for the purpose by either the Sellers or the Buyer, by the President for the time being of the Law Society of England and Wales on the application of either the Sellers or the Buyer. Any individual to whom a dispute is so referred shall be instructed in writing to give a written opinion, as soon as is reasonably practicable, as to which of the courses of conduct proposed by the Buyer and by the Sellers is most likely to result in the third party claim being agreed, settled or compromised at the least cost to the Sellers, unless that course of action has a demonstrable risk of having a material and adverse effect on the Company and the other course of action proposed does not in which case the individual to whom the dispute has been referred shall give his opinion as to which course of action has the least risk of a material and adverse effect on the Company. The decision of counsel (who shall act as expert and not as arbitrator) shall be final and binding on the Buyer and the Sellers for all purposes. Counsel’s fees and expenses shall be borne by the Sellers and the Buyer as counsel may determine in his sole discretion or, if no such determination is made by the Sellers and the Buyer in equal shares. The parties shall then implement counsel’s decision as soon as is reasonably practicable.

6.5		References in this paragraph 6 to any claim, action or demand against the Buyer or the Company include the assertion of any right to the same, including a right of termination.

7.		REMEDIES

7.1		The Buyer irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to rescind this Agreement for any misrepresentation, whether or not contained in this Agreement, and whether or not relating to any tax matter, or to terminate this Agreement for any other reason save in accordance with clause 3.4 or clause 9.5.

7.2		The Buyer irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to xxx either of the Sellers or any of either Seller’s advisers for misrepresentation, whether in equity, tort or under the Misrepresentation Xxx 0000, in respect of any misrepresentation, whether or not contained in this Agreement. The Buyer’s sole remedy in respect of any such misrepresentation shall be an action for breach of contract under the terms of this Agreement if and to the extent that the misrepresentation in question constitutes a breach of the Warranties (including the Tax Warranties).

7.3		Without limiting clause 11.7 of this Agreement, nothing in this paragraph 7 shall limit the Sellers’ liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or the remedies available to the Buyer for fraudulent misrepresentation.

8.		GENERAL

8.1		The Buyer shall not be entitled to recover any loss or amount more than once under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if an amount is paid into the Escrow Account in accordance with clause 4.5, the Buyer shall have no further right to bring a Warranty Claim in respect of the same breach of a Repeated Warranty.

8.2		Without limiting any obligations it may have at law or in equity, the Buyer shall mitigate, and shall cause the Company to mitigate, any loss in respect of which a Warranty Claim or Claim for any breach of any Tax Warranty or a claim to be indemnified under clause 4.4 arises.

8.3		The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer’s Solicitors have explained to it the effect of paragraphs 7.1 and 7.2 and clause 25 (entire agreement) and accepts that those paragraphs and clause 25 are reasonable in all the circumstances.
