2.8.1 in relation to England the CQC makes a decision under section 28(3) of the 2008 Act to adopt a proposal to refuse any application by the Seller to be registered as a provider of any service at any of the Homes following a proposal to that effect under section 26 of the 2008 Act or makes a decision under Section 15 in respect of any application made by the Seller or by any applicant to refuse to register a manager at any time at any of the Homes, Buyer informs Seller of its intention to terminate this Agreement following receipt of a Decision Notice, and the Seller does not notify the Buyer that it will appeal the decision described in this sub clause 2.8.1 within five Business Days after receiving such notice from Buyer; or

2.8.4 the SCSWIS makes such a decision as is described in sub-clause 2.8.3 which the Seller appeals and such appeal is unsuccessful

then the Buyer may by notice to the Seller terminate this agreement and the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer, within ten Business Days of written demand, the Buyer’s properly vouched costs and expenses in relation to the Transaction (including but not limited to legal, accounting, and other advisory fees) (together with related irrecoverable VAT to the extent VAT is chargeable) up to a maximum aggregate amount of £2,000,000.

2.9 If either sub-clause 2.8.1 or sub-clause 2.8.3 shall apply and if the Seller notifies the Buyer of its decision to appeal in the time period set out in sub-clause 2.8.1 or sub-clause 2.8.3, the Seller shall promptly submit and diligently pursue such appeal.

2.10.2 the Buyer shall not be entitled to make any claim under any of clauses 2.4, 2.5, 2.7 or 2.8 if this agreement is terminated by the Buyer pursuant to clauses 6.7 or 7.5.

2.11 In addition (and without prejudice) to the Buyer’s rights under clauses 2.5, 2.7 and 2.8, if the Seller has not procured the satisfaction of the Conditions by the date 30 days after the date of this agreement (the “Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date”), the Seller shall pay the Buyer on the earlier of: (i) Completion; and (ii) the date that the Buyer terminates this Agreement, an amount equal to:

2.11.1 if Completion has not occurred during the period 14 days after the Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date, £50,000 per week (pro-rated for any part week) for the period starting from the Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date and ending on the date 14 days after the Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date; and

2.11.2 if Completion has not occurred or this agreement has not been terminated by the Buyer after the 14 day period immediately following the Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date, £100,000 per week for each week (pro-rated for any part week) starting from conclusion of the 14 day period immediately following the Anticipated Conditions Satisfaction Date until Completion or the agreement is terminated by the Buyer.

2.12 Clauses 1 (Interpretation), 2.4, 2.5, 2.7, 2.8, 2.10, 2.11, 2.10 and this clause 2.12 (Conditions), 12 (Confidentiality, exclusivity and announcements), 14 (Assignment), 15 (Entire Agreement), 16 (Variation and waiver), 17 (Costs), 18 (Notice), 19 (Severance), 29 (Agreement Survives Completion) 22 (Third Party Rights), 23 (Successors), 24 (Counterparts), 25 (Remedies) and 26 (Governing law and jurisdiction) shall continue to

have effect notwithstanding the termination of this agreement in accordance with clause 2.4, clause 6.7 and clause 7.5.

3. SALE AND PURCHASE

3.1 On the terms of this agreement and subject to satisfaction of the Conditions, the Seller shall sell and the Buyer shall buy, with effect from Completion, the Sale Shares with full title guarantee free from all Encumbrances and together with all rights that attach (or may in the future attach) or accrue to the Sale Shares including, in particular, the right to receive all dividends and distributions declared, made or paid on or after the Completion Date.

3.2 The Buyer is not obliged to complete the purchase of any of the Sale Shares unless the purchase of all the Sale Shares is completed simultaneously and in accordance with the terms of this agreement.

4. PURCHASE PRICE

4.1 The Purchase Price is the cash sum of £306,895,000 less the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances (to be determined in accordance with clause 5) and less the amount of the CSSL Non-Core Payable.

4.2 Upon the entry into of this agreement the cash sum of £15,000,000 (fifteen million pounds sterling) currently held by the Buyer’s Solicitors (Deposit) shall be held by the Buyer’s Solicitors as stakeholder upon the terms of the Escrow Letter. Any interest accrued on the Deposit shall be paid to the Buyer in all circumstances.

4.3 The Buyer and the Seller agree that:

4.3.1 upon Completion, the Deposit shall be released from escrow in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Letter and applied towards the Purchase Price payable by the Buyer under the terms of this agreement and the Purchase Price shall be reduced accordingly by the amount of the Deposit. Any interest accrued on the Deposit shall, in all circumstances, belong to the Buyer; and

4.3.2 in the event that this agreement is validly terminated by the Buyer pursuant to clause 2.4, clause 2.8, clause 6.7 or clause 7.5.3 or this agreement automatically terminates pursuant to clause 2.7, the Deposit (together with any interest accrued thereon) shall be released to the Buyer in full.

4.4 Any right of the Buyer to the payment or release to it of the Deposit (and, if applicable, any interest accrued on the Deposit) in accordance with this agreement shall be in addition to and without prejudice to all other rights and remedies available to it hereunder, including under clause 2.5, clause 2.7, clause 2.8 and clause 2.11. Any right of the Seller to the payment or release to it of the Deposit in accordance with this agreement shall be the sole right and remedy of the Seller available to it hereunder (and, for the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances shall the Seller have any right to interest accrued on the Deposit).

4.5 The Purchase Price shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of any payment made to the Buyer for each and every Claim or Tax Claim.

14

4.6 All payments to be made to the Seller at Completion under this agreement shall be made in in accordance with the Buyer’s Solicitors’ Undertaking. Payment to the Seller’s Solicitors or BoS in accordance with the Buyer’s Solicitors Undertaking shall be a good and valid discharge of the obligations of the Buyer to pay the sum in question to the Seller, and the Buyer shall not be concerned to see the application of the monies so paid.

4.7 All payments to be made to the Buyer under this agreement shall be made in sterling by electronic transfer of immediately available funds to (unless the Seller notifies otherwise for the purposes of clause 4.8) the Buyer’s Solicitors’ Account (and the Buyer’s Solicitors are irrevocably authorised by the Buyer to receive the same).

4.8 The Buyer and the Seller may, on not less than three Business Days’ written notice, notify the other of such other account into which any payment required to be made pursuant to this agreement shall be made.

5. DETERMINATION OF THE ACTUAL OUTSTANDING INTERCOMPANY BALANCES

5.1 Not later than 10 Business Days following the date of Completion, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer and the Buyer’s Solicitors a draft of an updated version of the Estimated Intercompany Balance Statement containing its best estimate, acting in good faith, of the amount of the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances at Completion and comprising details of:

5.1.1 the amount of any balance due from Group Companies to members of the Seller’s Group; and

5.1.2 the amount of any balance due from members of the Seller’s Group to Group Companies,

together with, in each case, details of how such amounts have been calculated and supporting information and a reconciliation to the Estimated Intercompany Balance Statement (Draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement).

5.2 The Buyer shall review the Draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement delivered by the Seller under clause 5.1 above and may, within 20 Business Days of receipt of the Draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement under clause 5.1 above, deliver or procure the delivery of a report to the Seller setting out the details of any items that it disputes in the Draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement in sufficient detail to enable the Seller to consider them and which report shall specify any adjustments which in the Buyer’s opinion should be made (an “Objection Notice”). If no Objection Notice is delivered by the Buyer within that period, the Draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement shall be deemed to be agreed and shall be the Actual Intercompany Balance Statement (Actual Intercompany Balance Statement ).

15

5.3 The Buyer and the Seller shall, within 10 Business Days after the date of delivery by the Buyer to the Seller of an Objection Notice, use their reasonable endeavours, acting in good faith, to reach agreement as to the adjustment (if any) required to be made in connection with any matter of disagreement notified by the Buyer in the Objection Notice. If, within 15 Business Days after the date of delivery to the Seller of the Objection Notice, there remains an outstanding dispute with respect to any aspect of the Actual Intercompany Balance Statement or the calculation of the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances, the dispute shall, at the written request of the Buyer or the Seller, be referred for final determination to an independent firm of chartered accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) to be appointed by agreement in writing between the Buyer and the Seller or, failing agreement, within 5 Business Days after request by either the Buyer or the Seller, to be nominated by the president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (or any successor institute). The Independent Accountants shall be instructed to adjudicate all of the matters in dispute as soon as practicable. The Independent Accountants shall act as expert and not as arbitrator and the Independent Accountant’s decision (in the absence of manifest error) shall be final and binding on the parties. The fees of the Independent Accountants shall be payable by the Seller and the Buyer in such proportions as the Independent Accountants determine or, if no determination is made, equally between (i) the Seller and (ii) the Buyer.

5.4 Upon the draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement being agreed (or being deemed to be agreed) by the Buyer and the Seller or being determined by the Independent Accountants, that draft Actual Intercompany Balance Statement as so agreed (or deemed to be agreed) or determined shall be the Actual Intercompany Balance Statement for the purposes of this agreement and shall be final and binding on the Seller and the Buyer.

5.5 Once the Actual Intercompany Balance Statement has been agreed (or deemed to be agreed) or determined after Completion in accordance with this clause 5, if the amount of the final aggregate Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances is:

5.5.1 a sum that is greater than the amount set out in the Estimated Intercompany Balance Statement (the difference being the Shortfall), the amount that the Buyer shall procure will be repaid at Completion to discharge the final aggregate Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances shall be deemed increased and the Purchase Price deemed reduced by an amount equal to the Shortfall; and

5.5.2 a sum that is less than the amount set out in the Estimated Intercompany Balance Statement (the difference being the Excess), the amount that the Buyer shall procure will be repaid at Completion to discharge the final aggregate Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances shall be deemed reduced and the Purchase Price deemed increased by an amount equal to the Excess.

5.6 For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment under this clause 5 shall require the Buyer to make any additional payment to the Seller or any other person pursuant to this agreement or otherwise. The Buyer’s obligations in respect of: (i) the payment of the Purchase Price (including the Deposit); (ii) the repayment of the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances

16

by the Company or the Group Companies (as applicable); and (iii) the CSSL Non-Core Payable shall not exceed £306,895,000 in aggregate.

5.7 To the extent that any adjustment is required under this clause 5 as a result of an Excess (and consequently that part of the Purchase Price that is payable in respect of the Sale Shares increases), the Seller shall, within 5 Business Days of the Actual Intercompany Balance Statement being agreed (or deemed to be agreed) or determined in accordance with this clause 5, pay to the Buyer in cash an amount equal to any stamp duty on the Excess (and any other registration and transfer taxes) payable as result of or in connection with such increase.

6.1.22 permit (so far as it lies within its powers to do so) any of its permits, authorisations or insurance policies to lapse or do anything which would reduce the amount or scope of cover or make any of its permits, authorisations or insurance policies void or voidable or prevent the renewal of any of the foregoing.

6.2 During the Interim Period, the Seller shall preserve or shall procure the preservation of the Properties in accordance with its obligations under the terms of the Leases, as if the same shall have applied from the date hereof.

6.3 During the Interim Period, the Seller shall promptly provide the Buyer, its agents and representatives with such information relating to the business and affairs of the Company's Group, and such access to its books and records, as the Buyer may reasonably require from

18

time to time, and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, shall provide the Buyer with:

6.3.1 the financial, accounting and operational information referred to in clauses 11.1, 11.2.2(c) and 11.2.3 of the Umbrella Agreement in the form and in manner contemplated in the Umbrella Agreement;

6.3.2 a weekly report in a form satisfactory to the Buyer (acting reasonably) containing no less information and addressing the same issues as those contained in the Registrations Status Memorandum, to be delivered by 12:00 p.m. on Friday each week, setting out the status of the Seller’s progress in relation to the satisfaction of the Conditions referred to in clauses 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 and any communication the Seller or any of its agents or advisers have had with the Care Quality Commission and the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care.

6.4 During the Interim Period, the Seller shall procure that, upon no less than two Business Days’ notice, the employees, agents, advisers and representatives of the Buyer shall be given such reasonable information regarding the Properties , the Additional Properties and the Development Properties and reasonable access to the Properties, the Additional Properties and the Current Development Properties and to the books and to the records of the Company and each of the Subsidiaries during normal business hours, subject to the Seller being satisfied that such access complies with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

6.5 During the Interim Period, the Seller shall use its reasonable endeavours to assist and to instruct its advisers to assist the Buyer in providing satisfactory replies to any reasonable enquiries made by any proposed funder.

6.6 Pending Completion, if a Property is damaged or destroyed and clause 8.6 of the Business Transfer Agreement applies, the Seller undertakes to the Buyer to comply with its obligations under the Business Transfer Agreement.

6.7 If during the Interim Period:

6.7.1 it becomes apparent that a Warranty or a Tax Warranty, as given on the date of this agreement or, if given at any time before or on Completion, by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing, is or would be untrue or misleading in a manner that is or would be material in relation to the Company’s Group or to the sale of the Sale Shares and that will not be remedied under the terms of the Business Transfer Agreements; or

6.7.2 the Seller is in material breach of any of the undertakings set out in clauses 6.1, 6.2, 6.3.1, 6.4, 6.5 or 6.6; or

6.7.3 material damage occurs in relation to any of the Properties or any assets of any Group Company and the amount of such material damage which is not recoverable under an insurance policy of the Company’s Group; or

19

6.7.4 there is a change to a Certificate of Title reflecting a material impediment to any Property or its value, not apparent from the Certificate of Title delivered at the date of this agreement (whether or not the facts or circumstances creating such impediment existed at the date of this agreement);

6.7.6 there is a material adverse change in the business, operations or financial position of the Seller, the Seller’s Group, the Company or of any of the Group Companies. For these purposes a material adverse change shall occur if the Aggregate Earnings (as defined in the Umbrella Agreement) computed for the last 4 complete calendar months and multiplied by 3 compared to the initial Aggregate Rent (as defined in the Umbrella Agreement) of £21,610,000 would produce a Lease Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Umbrella Agreement) (the “Test Coverage Ratio”) that is 0.05 less than the 2013 Year End Base Coverage Ratio.  For purposes of the foregoing, “2013 Year End Base Coverage Ratio” shall mean the Lease Coverage Ratio derived by dividing Aggregate Earnings for the twelve months ending March 2013 by the initial Aggregate Rent.  By way of example, if the 2013 Year End Base Coverage Ratio is 1 : 1.32, a material adverse change shall occur if the Test Coverage Ratio is 1 : 1.27 or lower,

and to the extent that any breach is capable of being remedied such breach shall remain unremedied for 10 Business Days following notice in writing of the same to the Seller, for so long as such breach persists the Buyer may terminate this agreement (except for the Surviving Provisions) with immediate effect by notice in writing to the Seller and no party shall have any claim under this agreement against the other in respect of any rights, remedies or liabilities that have accrued as at termination of this agreement and the Deposit shall be released to the Buyer.

6.9 Following completion of the Business Transfer Agreements and prior to Completion the Seller undertakes (provided it is lawful to do so) to procure that the Company shall declare a dividend for an amount of £45,000,000, such amount to be left outstanding on intercompany account.

6.10 The Seller shall procure that the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances shall not be less than £206,000,000.

20

(b) instruct the Buyer’s Solicitors to deliver the Buyer’s Solicitors’ Undertaking to the Seller’s Solicitors.

7.3.3 The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the making of the payments set out in the Buyer’s Solicitors’ Undertaking shall satisfy and constitute a full discharge of the Buyer’s obligations under this agreement to pay the Purchase Price and to procure the repayment of the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances (the attribution of which amounts shall be established pursuant to clause 5). The CSSL Non-Core Payable shall be discharged in accordance with clause 8.1.3. Taken together, the Purchase Price, the Actual Outstanding Intercompany Balances and the CSSL Non-Core Payable amount to £306,895,000.

21

7.4 The Buyer may waive the requirements contained in clause 7.3.1 either unconditionally or subject to the condition that the Seller gives, on Completion, a written indemnity or undertaking to the Buyer in such form as the Buyer requires.

7.5.2 defer Completion to a date not more than 28 days after the date on which Completion would otherwise have taken place; or

7.5.3 either immediately or following the deferral referred to in clause 7.5.2 (if any of the obligations in clause 7.3.1 have still not been complied with) terminate this agreement (except for the Surviving Provisions) by notice in writing to the Seller.

7.6 The Buyer may defer Completion under clause 7.5 only once, but otherwise this clause 7 applies to a Completion so deferred as it applies to a Completion that has not been deferred.

7.7 In the event that:

7.7.1 the Conditions have been satisfied and the Seller has demonstrated that the Conditions have been satisfied and that it is able to comply with its obligations under clause 7.3.1; and

7.7.2 the Buyer, having been given not less than ten Business Days’ notice in writing by the Seller to complete the purchase of the Sale Shares, fails to complete the same in accordance with the terms of this agreement,

the Deposit (excluding any interest accrued thereon, which shall be payable to the Buyer) shall be forfeited and shall be paid by the Buyer’s Solicitors to the Seller’s Solicitors in accordance with clause 4.6.

7.8 Within 5 Business Days following Completion, the Seller shall procure that the landlords under the Leases and the Seller are co-insured with effect from Completion pursuant to the terms of the Leases.

9.1 The Seller warrants and represents to the Buyer, except as Disclosed, in the terms of the Warranties and the Tax Warranties on the date of this agreement.

9.2 Without prejudice to the right of the Buyer to claim on any other basis or take advantage of any other remedies available to it, if any Warranty or Tax Warranty is breached or proves to be untrue or misleading, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer (or as it may direct):

9.2.2 all reasonable third party costs (including the reasonable fees of the Buyer’s legal and other professional advisers) and expenses reasonably incurred by the Buyer or any Group Company as a result of such breach, or of the Warranty or Tax Warranty being untrue or misleading.

9.3 Warranties or Tax Warranties qualified by the expression so far as the Seller is aware or any similar expression are deemed to be given to the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Seller after it has made due and careful enquiries of Xxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx and of the Group’s legal advisers and auditors (including, for the avoidance

23

of doubt, Ridouts LLP) and the knowledge, information and belief of the Seller shall be deemed to include the actual knowledge, information and belief of each such person.

9.4 The rights and remedies of the Buyer under this agreement shall not be affected, and the Warranties and the Tax Warranties shall not be regarded as being qualified by any fact, matter or information within the actual, imputed or constructive knowledge of the Buyer or of any of its agents or advisers other than a fact, matter or information that is Disclosed.

9.5 Each of the Warranties and Tax Warranties is separate and independent and without prejudice to the other Warranties and Tax Warranties and, unless otherwise specifically provided, the meaning and extent of any Warranty or Tax Warranty, any part of it shall not be qualified or limited by reference to any other Warranty or Tax Warranty or any other provision in this agreement or give cause for a claim under the Tax Covenant.

For the purposes of this clause

10.7.2 in respect of a breach of any of the warranties in paragraph 1.1, paragraph 1.2, paragraph 2.1, paragraph 2.2, paragraph 2.3, paragraph 2.6, paragraph 8 or paragraph 16.2 or paragraph 19 of Part 1 of Schedule 2.

10.8 Any Claim shall be deemed to be withdrawn (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn), and no new Claim may be made in respect of the facts giving rise to such withdrawn Claim unless legal proceedings in respect thereof have been both issued to and served on the Seller within nine months of the giving of written notice of the Claim.

10.9 No liability shall attach to the Seller by reason of any breach of any of the Warranties to the extent that the same loss has been recovered by the Buyer under any other terms of this agreement or under a Business Transfer Agreement or under any other document entered into pursuant hereto and accordingly the Buyer may only recover once in respect of the same loss.

10.10 The Seller shall not be liable for breach of any of the Warranties to the extent that the subject of the Claim has been made good or is otherwise compensated for without cost to the Buyer.

10.11 Subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer in accordance with clause 10.13, if in respect of any matter which would give rise to a Claim, the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group is entitled to claim under a policy of insurance, then the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group (as appropriate) shall claim against its insurance and use reasonable endeavours to pursue such claims and any such Claim shall then reduce by the amount recovered or be extinguished, taking into account any Tax on the insurance proceeds, any reasonable costs incurred in such recovery and any excess and/or premium payable as a result of the Claim. The Seller undertakes and agrees in respect of any claim under any policy of insurance under this clause 10.11 that the time limit for bring such a Claim shall be the later of the date specified in clause 10.5 or the date falling 6 months after the date on which the Buyer

25

receives written notice from the insurer stating that those losses in respect of which the Claim is made are not covered or recoverable by a policy of insurance.

10.12 Subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer in accordance with clause 10.13, where the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group is at any time entitled to recover from some other person (other than an insurer) any sum in respect of any matter giving rise to a Claim the Buyer shall, and shall procure that the member of the Buyer’s Group concerned shall, take reasonable steps to mitigate its loss in accordance with its common law duty to enforce such recovery and, in the event that the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group shall recover any amount from such other person (other than an insurer), the amount of the claim against the Seller shall be reduced by the amount recovered (less any reasonable costs incurred in such recovery and less any Tax attributable to such recovery).

10.13 The Seller shall indemnify the Buyer in respect of all properly vouched costs, charges and expenses that are properly incurred by the Buyer (or any other member of the Buyer’s Group) as a consequence of any actions taken at the request of the Seller in accordance with clause 10.11 and clause 10.12, and the Seller shall pay to the Buyer (or any other member of the Buyer’s Group) within ten Business Days of written demand such costs, charges and expenses.

10.14 If the Seller pays at any time to the Buyer or any member of the Buyer’s Group an amount pursuant to a Claim or under any other provisions of this agreement and the Buyer or member of the Buyer’s Group subsequently recovers from some other person any sum in respect of all or part of the subject matter of such Claim, the Buyer shall, or shall procure that the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group shall, pay to the Seller the lesser of (i) the sum recovered from the other person less any reasonable costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery and less any Tax attributable to the recovery, and (ii) the amount previously paid to the Buyer by the Seller less any Tax attributable to it.

10.15 No Claim shall lie against the Seller to the extent that such Claim is attributable to any voluntary act, omission, transaction or arrangement carried out by the Buyer or a member of the Buyer’s Group on or after Completion done or omitted otherwise than in the ordinary course of business of the Buyer or the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group, which the Buyer or the relevant member of the Buyer’s Group was actually aware would give rise to such Claim and, for this purpose, an act, omission, transaction or arrangement shall be deemed not to be voluntary if it is required in order to comply with mandatory statutory or regulatory requirements, to implement the Transaction or is pursuant to a legally binding obligation entered into on or before Completion.

10.16 No liability shall arise in respect of any breach of any of the Warranties to the extent that liability for such breach occurs or is increased directly or indirectly as a result of any legislation not in force on or prior to the date of this agreement or as a result of the withdrawal of any extra-statutory concession or other agreement or arrangements currently granted by or made with any governmental authority or Taxation Authority or as a result of any change after the date of this agreement of any generally accepted interpretation or application of any legislation or the enforcement policy or practice of the relevant authorities or as a result of the withdrawal of any extra-statutory concession or any other formal agreement or arrangements with any Taxation Authority (whether or not having the force of

26

law) currently granted by or made with any Taxation Authority, unless such formal agreement or arrangement is withdrawn due to an error, omission or fault of the Seller or of any Group Company or as a result of any acts or omissions of any Group Company prior to Completion.

10.17 The Buyer warrants to the Seller that there is no matter or circumstance within its actual knowledge at the date of this agreement which it is actually aware is inconsistent with the Warranties set out in paragraphs 12 and 13 of Schedule 2 and which the Buyer is actually aware would give rise to a material claim under the Warranties set out in paragraphs 12 and 13 of Schedule 2 (save as Disclosed).

10.18 Nothing in this agreement shall limit the Buyer’s obligation to mitigate its loss under general law save that, where the Seller does not elect to take conduct of Proceedings pursuant to clause 10.22.3, the Seller acknowledges that no Group Company will have any operational management or employees and will therefore need to engage professional advisers and consultants to deal with such Proceedings.

10.19 The provisions of clauses 10.20 to 10.24 shall apply in the event that any claim is made or threatened by any third party against the Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary, which may reasonably be considered likely to give rise to a Claim (a Third Party Claim).

10.20 In the event of a Third Party Claim, subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer in accordance with Clause 10.23 the Buyer shall:

10.20.1 as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within 20 Business Days of the date upon which the Buyer (or any member of the Buyer’s Group) becomes actually aware of the Third Party Claim, give written notice of the Third Party Claim to the Seller, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Third Party Claim (to the extent that such information is actually known by the Buyer);

10.20.2 subject to the Seller entering into a confidentiality undertaking in a form satisfactory to the Buyer, keep the Seller fully informed of the progress of, and all material developments in relation to, the Third Party Claim and provide the Seller with copies of all information and correspondence relating to such Third Party Claim; and

27

10.21 Any failure or delay by the Buyer to give written notice within 20 Business Days in accordance with clause 10.20.1, shall not invalidate or otherwise prejudice any Claim by the Buyer save to the extent that any such Claim arises or is increased as a result of such failure or delay.

10.22 Subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer in accordance with clause 10.23, the Buyer shall:

10.22.1 take (and shall procure that each member of the Buyer’s Group shall take) such action as the Seller may reasonably request in writing to avoid, dispute, resist, mitigate, compromise or defend the Third Party Claim and to appeal against any judgement given in respect of it;

10.22.2 not (and shall procure that no other member of the Buyer’s Group shall) agree any compromise or settlement, or make any admission of liability or payment in relation to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

10.22.3 if required by the Seller in writing, delegate the conduct of any legal proceedings in respect of the Third Party Claim to the Seller (Proceedings). For this purpose, the Buyer shall retain such firm of solicitors as is selected by the Seller to proceed on behalf of the Buyer, the Company or the relevant Subsidiary (as the case may be) in relation to the Proceedings in accordance with the instructions of the Seller, and the Buyer shall give such information and assistance as the Seller or the appointed solicitors may require in connection with the conduct of the Proceedings.

10.23 The Seller shall indemnify the Buyer in respect of all costs, charges and expenses that are properly incurred by the Buyer (or any other member of the Buyer’s Group) as a consequence of any actions taken at the request of the Seller in accordance with clause 10.20 and 10.22 and the Seller shall pay to the Buyer (or any other member of the Buyer’s Group) on demand such costs, charges and expenses.

10.24 The Buyer shall be entitled to withdraw any conduct granted to the Seller pursuant to clause 10.20 and 10.22 where the Buyer (acting reasonably) considers that in having such conduct, the Seller is failing to act diligently in respect of the Claim or is acting in a manner which is frivolous or vexatious or which the Buyer reasonably believes is likely to injure the business or reputation of any member the Buyer’s Group.

10.25 The Seller shall have no liability in respect of a Claim to the extent that the liability pursuant to the relevant Claim is increased as a result of the Buyer (or any member of the Buyer’s Group) knowingly failing to act in accordance with any reasonable request or direction given by the Seller in writing in accordance with clause 10.22, save where the Buyer reasonably believes that such request or direction is likely to injure the business or reputation of any member of the Buyer’s Group.
