(a) the European Commission declaring that the Transaction is compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) alone or in combination with Article 6(2), Article 8(1) or Article 8(2) of the EUMR (or the time periods laid down in Article 10(1) or Article 10(3) of the EUMR having elapsed without any decision having been made by the European Commission) and either:

(i) the European Commission indicating that it does not intend to refer whole or part of the Transaction to a competent authority of any Member State in accordance with Article 9 of the EUMR; or

(ii) if such a referral is made, clearance being obtained from the competent authority of that Member State(s).

For the avoidance of doubt, if the European Commission refers only a part of the Transaction to one or more competent authorities in any Member State, Clause 4.1 shall be satisfied only if the condition in Clause 4.1(a)(ii) is also met.

(B) use its reasonable endeavours to avoid any declaration of incompleteness by the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State or any other suspension for the time

periods of clearance;

(C) take all steps necessary to procure the satisfaction of the Condition referred to in Clause 4.1(a) by the end of the European Commission’s Phase I review (i.e. without the need for a second phase of investigation) or by the end of a Member State competent authority’s Phase I period of review if a referral described in Clause 4.1(a)(ii) is made. Such steps shall include, but are not limited to, proposing, negotiating, offering to commit and agreeing, in each case where necessary to ensure that the Condition in Clause 4.1(a) is satisfied prior to the Long Stop Date with the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State to effect (and if such offer is accepted, commit to effect), by agreement, order or otherwise the sale, divestiture, license, or disposition of any necessary assets or businesses by the Purchaser or by any member of the Purchaser’s Group (each being a “Remedy”);

(D) procure that the Institutional Sellers’ Representative is given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on drafts and final version of any filings or other material documentation prior to their submission to the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State (it being acknowledged that certain such drafts and/or documents may be shared on a confidential outside counsel to counsel basis only) and to take account of any reasonable comments;

(E) respond as soon as reasonably practicable to all inquiries received from the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State to whom a filing has been made or referred to for additional information or documentation and to supplement such filings as reasonably requested by the European Commission and/or the applicable authority. The Purchaser undertakes to keep the Institutional Sellers’ Representative informed of material contact with the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State and to the extent permitted by law, provide the Institutional Sellers’ Representative with copies of all material relevant documentation in relation thereto (to the extent such information relates to the Company and provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to provide the Institutional Seller’s Representative with any confidential information or business secrets) and allow the Institutional Sellers’ Representative the opportunity to participate in any calls or meeting with the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State;

(F) notify the Institutional Sellers’ Representative within two Business Days after receipt of each such clearance or approval required to satisfy Clause 4.1;

(H) to agree and implement any Remedies that may be required by the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State prior to the Completion Date and, failing that, within six months of Completion or other period as required by the clearance

decision of the European Commission and/or by competent authority of any Member State if a referral described in Clause 4.1(a) is made.

(b) Sellers’ Obligations

Each of the Sellers individually and severally (not jointly or jointly and severally) undertake to the Purchaser:

(A) to the extent permitted by law, to co-operate with the Purchaser in good faith and to use all reasonable endeavours to procure co-operation by the Group with a view to satisfying the Condition set out in Clause 4.1(a), including, to the extent necessary and on a confidential basis, providing all information reasonably required by the Purchaser in relation to the business of the Company and the Group or in relation to any such Seller and providing all information reasonably required by the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State (as applicable) in relation to the business of the Company and the Group or in relation to any such Seller, provided that any information provided in relation to any such Seller shall be provided only to the European Commission and/or competent authority of any Member State (as applicable) and/or, if necessary the Purchaser’ Solicitors on a strictly confidential basis and shall not be provided to the Purchaser;

4.3 Non-Satisfaction

(a) If the Condition set out in Clause 4.1 is not fulfilled (or waived in accordance with this Agreement) on or before the Long Stop Date, this Agreement shall automatically terminate provided that either the Institutional Sellers or the Purchaser shall, provided the parties exercising their rights in this Clause 4.3(a) (the “Extending Party”) have complied with the terms of this Agreement, have the right to extend the Long Stop Date for an initial 30 day period and one further 30 day period if, in the reasonable expectation of the Extending Party, the Condition will be capable of being satisfied during such additional 30 day period(s).

(b) If this Agreement terminates in accordance with Clause 4.3(a), and without limiting the right of any party to this Agreement to claim damages, all obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate (except for the Continuing Provisions) but (for the avoidance of doubt) all rights and liabilities of the parties which have accrued before termination shall continue to exist.

Group or other third party) have been made on arm’s length terms and the processes by which prices and terms have been arrived at have, in each case, been fully documented. No notice, enquiry or adjustments have been made by any Tax Authority in connection with any such transactions.

18.12 So far as the Management Warrantors are aware, there is no Tax Lien, whether imposed by any state, local or foreign Taxation Authority, outstanding against any of the assets or properties of any of the Group Companies.

18.13 Each Group Company has prepared, kept and preserved sufficient and accurate records to enable it to make and complete true and accurate Returns for Taxation purposes relating to accounting periods ended within the four (4) years prior to the date of this Deed and otherwise as required by law, and which comply with any computerised accounting system obligations prescribed by law.

18.14 No employee or director or former employee or director (excluding the Management Warrantors in respect of the relevant Shares) of a Group Company or any person associated with any of them holds or has within the last three (3) years held any shares or securities or options over or interests in any shares or securities of any Group Company.

18.15 No payments or loans have been made to, nor other benefit provided to, nor any assets made available or transferred to any employee or former employee (or any associate of such employee or former employee) of any Group Company by an employee benefit trust or other third party as a result of such person’s (or their associate’s) employment with a Group Company and there are not and have not been within the last three (3) years any arrangements entered into for any such purposes.

18.16 Neither the sale of the Shares to the Purchaser pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, nor the receipt of, or entitlement to, any Share Consideration will give rise to or result in any obligation of the Purchaser, any Group Company and/or any member of the Purchaser’s Group to withhold, deduct or account for any amounts as a result of the employment status of the relevant Seller including, but without limitation to, in respect of income tax, payroll taxes or social security contributions.

18.17 The Data Room contains details so far as they affect any member of the Group of all arrangements with any Taxation Authority that are not based on a strict application of the law relating to Taxation (other than published extra-statutory concessions, statements of practice and statements of a similar nature). Each Group Company has complied with all requirements imposed in respect of any such arrangement.

18.18 No Group Company has in the last three (3) years made a mandatory disclosure to a Tax Authority in respect of a transaction or a proposed transaction which enables any person to obtain a Tax advantage and, so far as the Management Warrantors are aware, no circumstances exist as at the date of this Deed which mean that a Group Company should have made such a disclosure but failed to do so.

18.19 The Data Room contains full particulars of:

(d) all groups and consolidated groups for Taxation purposes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in respect of VAT) and fiscal unities of which each Group Company is, or has been, a member within the last three (3) years including with any of the Sellers or any member of the Institutional Sellers’ Group;

(e) every agreement relating to the use of a group Tax Relief to which a Group Company is, or has been, a party within the last three (3) years; and

(f) any arrangements for the payment of group Taxation liabilities to which a Group Company has been party within the last three (3) years.

18.20 Each Group Company that is, or has throughout the whole of the period beginning three (3) years before the Accounts Date and ending on the date hereof been, required to be registered for VAT in any jurisdiction is so, or has been, registered within that jurisdiction as required. No Group Company is or has been registered, or required to be registered, for VAT in any jurisdiction other than its jurisdiction of incorporation.

18.21 In the three (3) years prior to the date of this Deed, each Group Company has complied in all material respects with any VAT legislation (including in respect of the operation of capital goods schemes or equivalent in any jurisdiction).

18.22 All supplies made by each Group Company are taxable supplies for VAT purposes where the relevant Group Company is located or registered in a jurisdiction that applies VAT. All input VAT incurred by each Group Company is and has been in the period of three (3) years prior to Completion fully recoverable and there are no circumstances existing at Completion that may cause any input VAT incurred prior to Completion to be other than fully recoverable.

18.23 So far as the Management Warrantors are aware, there is no instrument to which any Group Company is a party and which is necessary to establish any Group Company’s title to any asset, which is liable to stamp duty or any transfer tax or duty and which has not been duly stamped.

18.24 No Group Company has been a party to any transaction involving a claim to or filing with a Tax Authority for an exemption from stamp duty or stamp duty land tax within the three (3) years prior to the date of this Deed.

18.25 No rents, interest, annual payments, pension contributions or any sums of an income nature, paid by the Company in three (3) years prior to Completion have been wholly or partially disallowable as deductions, management expenses or charges in computing taxable profits for Tax purposes. So far as the Management Warrantors are aware, no such sums which the Company is under an existing obligation to pay in the future will be disallowable and there are no circumstances existing at Completion which may result in amounts previously treated as being allowable being disallowed.

19. Insurance

19.1 The Data Room contains an accurate list of each material insurance policy maintained by or covering a Group Company (together, the “Policies”). All premiums on the Policies have been duly and punctually paid and each of the Policies is enforceable and is not void or voidable. As far as the Management Warrantors are aware, there are no circumstances which might make any of the Policies void or voidable or enable any insurer to refuse payment of all or part of any claim under the Policies.

19.2 Each Group Company has at all times in the three (3) years prior to the date of this Deed effected all insurance required by law and under its contractual operations.

19.3 In the last three (3) years before the date of this Deed, no claim in excess of SEK2,800,000 (or its equivalent) has been made or is outstanding under any of the Policies and no matter exists which might give rise to a claim under any of the Policies exceeding SEK2,800,000.

20. Reports

20.1 Each Warrantor has read the executive summaries of the Reports and confirms that: (i) each such executive summary of the Reports is accurate in all material respects as at the date of such Reports; and (ii) there is no material matter, fact or circumstance which

relates to the Group or the business of the Group included in any such executive summary of a Report the inclusion of which might in his reasonable opinion render such executive summary of a Report misleading in any material respect.

20.2 Each of Jan Bernhardsson and Xxxx Xxxxxxx has read the Reports (with the exception of the Schedules of the Legal Report) and confirms that there is no material matter, fact or circumstance which relates to the Group or business of the Group, the inclusion of which might in his reasonable opinion render the Reports misleading in any material respect.

21. Environmental Matters

21.1 Each Group Company is in compliance with Environmental Laws applicable to it in all material respects.

21.2 There are no claims, proceedings, actions or investigations against any Group Company with respect to any material non-compliance with, or any liability (whether actual or prospective), obligation or duty under, Environmental Laws nor has any written notice been received threatening any such claims, proceedings, actions or investigations.

21.3 To the knowledge and belief of the Management Warrantors, there are no facts or circumstances which might reasonably be expected to result in liabilities of greater than SEK5,500,000 arising directly or indirectly for the Group from Environmental Matters at any Property in the six (6) months after Completion.

Schedule 3

Limitations on Liability

1. Maximum Liability

The aggregate liability of each Management Warrantor in respect of all Claims (including all legal and other professional fees and expenses payable by the Management Warrantor in respect of all such Claims) shall not exceed the lower of:

1.1 the proportion of the liability under the Claims which is equal to the proportion which the Management Warrantor’s Relevant Proportion bears to the aggregate Relevant Proportions of those Management Warrantors liable (including the Relevant Proportion of a Management Warrantor who is not pursued for his Relevant Proportion of such liability but who would be liable if so pursued) in respect of such Claims; or

1.2 the amount set out next to the relevant Management Warrantor in column 3 of the Management Warrantors’ Allocation.

2. Time Limitation for Claims

2.1 No Management Warrantor shall be liable in respect of any Claim unless written notice specifying (in reasonable detail) the matter(s) which gives rise to the Claim, the nature of the claim and (if practicable) a bona fide estimate of the amount claimed in respect thereof is given by or on behalf of the Purchaser to the Management Warrantors as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchaser becomes aware of the Claim and in any event by not later than 5.00 p.m. on the date falling twelve (12) months after the date of this deed (provided that any failure to provide any such details of the Claim or to indicate its nature or to provide an estimate of the amount of any such claims shall not invalidate such Claim).

2.2 Any Claim notified pursuant to paragraph 2.1 shall (if not previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to have been withdrawn and shall determine absolutely unless legal proceedings in respect of it have been properly issued and validly served within nine (9) months of such written notice being given to the Management Warrantors or, in the case of any contingent liability, within twelve (12) months after such contingent liability becomes an actual liability.

3. Minimum Claims

3.1 The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any individual Claim (or a series of Claims arising from substantially identical facts, matters or circumstances) unless the liability in respect of any such Claim (or series of claims) exceeds SEK 5,750,000 (the “De Minimis Claim Amount”). Where the liability agreed or determined exceeds the De Minimis Claim Amount, subject as otherwise provided in this deed, the Management Warrantors shall be liable for the full amount of the Claims or series of Claims and not just the excess.

3.2 The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim unless and until the aggregate amount that would otherwise be recoverable from the Management Warrantors in respect of all Claims (but for this paragraph and after giving due effect to paragraph 3.1 above in relation to any individual Claim) exceeds SEK 27,000,000 (the “Basket Amount”). Where the aggregate amount agreed or determined in respect of all Claims referred to in this paragraph above exceeds the Basket Amount, subject to otherwise provided in this deed, the relevant Management Warrantors shall be liable for the full amount of such Claims and not just the excess.

4. Contingent Liabilities

Without prejudice to the Purchaser’s ability to give notice of a Claim within the time period set out in Clause 2.1, the Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim which is contingent unless and until such contingent liability becomes an actual liability and is due and payable.

5. Insurance and Other Compensation

The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim to the extent that:

5.1 losses in respect of such Claim are actually recovered under a policy of insurance of the Group; or

5.2 loss or damage giving rise to such Claim has been made or is made good or is otherwise compensated for without cost to the Purchaser’s Group or the Group.

6. Provisions

The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim if and to the extent that specific allowance, provision or reserve in respect of the matter giving rise to the Claim is made in the Locked Box Accounts provided that any such limitation shall only apply to the extent of such specific allowance, provision or reserve.

7. Acts of the Purchaser

The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim to the extent it would not have occurred but for, or has been increased as a result of:

7.1 any act, omission or transaction of the Purchaser’s Group after Completion, otherwise than in the ordinary course of business conducted by the Group as per the date of Completion (save that this exclusion shall not apply where such act, omission or transaction was carried out or effected by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group (or its or their respective directors or employees or agents or successors in title or any of its Affiliates) pursuant to a legally binding commitment of the Group created on or before Completion or at the written direction or written request of any of the Management Warrantors or to comply with Applicable Law); or

7.2 any change in the accounting principles or practices of the Group (including the length of any accounting period for tax purposes) introduced after Completion save to the extent such change is required to comply with GAAP.

8. Changes in law

The Management Warrantors shall not be liable in respect of any Claim to the extent that matters, facts or circumstances giving rise to the Claim would not have occurred but for:

8.1 any change in law or regulation or in its interpretation or administration by the English courts, by a Taxation Authority or by any other fiscal monetary or regulatory authority after the date hereof; or

8.2 any increase in the rates of taxation made after the date hereof.

9. Mitigation of Losses

The Purchaser shall procure that all reasonable steps are taken and all reasonable assistance is given to avoid or mitigate any losses arising as a result of the subject matter of a Claim.

10. Fraud

None of the limitations contained in this Schedule 3 shall apply to any claim which arises or is increased, or to the extent to which it arises or is increased, as the consequence of, or which is delayed as a result of, fraud by any Management Warrantor.

11. Warranty and Indemnity Insurance

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this deed:

11.1 the parties acknowledge that, the Purchaser has secured a policy of insurance for the benefit of the Purchaser and/or the Purchaser’s Group (including, after Completion, the Group) to cover Losses arising in respect of breaches of and claims under the Warranties (the “Warranty and Indemnity Insurance”);

11.2 the Purchaser agrees and undertakes that the Warranty and Indemnity Insurance shall contain a waiver from the W&I Insurer waiving all its rights to take subrogated action or to exercise rights assigned to it against the Management Warrantors in relation to any Claim, other than in the event of fraud or dishonest misconduct by the Management Warrantors;

11.3 the Purchaser:

(a) shall not agree to any amendment, variation or waiver of the waiver referred to in paragraph 11.2 (or do anything which has a similar effect) without the prior written consent of the Management Warrantors;

(b) shall not novate, or otherwise assign its respective rights with respect to the waiver referred to in paragraph 11.2 (or do anything which has similar effect) or do anything which causes the waiver referred to in Clause 11.2 not to have full force and effect in accordance with its terms; and

(c) shall, without limitation to any right of the Management Warrantors to separately enforce such terms, use all reasonable endeavours to enforce any term in the Warranty and Indemnity Insurance under which the W&I Insurer waives its rights to take subrogated action against the Management Warrantors upon the terms set out in the Warranty and Indemnity Insurance.

4.2 The aggregate liability of each Management Seller in respect of all claims, costs, expenses, demands, actions, proceedings, investigations, obligations, and other liabilities under or arising directly and solely out of this Deed (in each case excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the costs and expenses incurred in entering into and preparing this Deed) or the W&I Policy except for where there has been an established fraud (by a court or other judicial or regulatory body) by or on behalf of such Management Seller (referred to in this clause 4 as ‘Relevant Liabilities’) (including

without limitation all legal and other professional fees and expenses payable by such Management Seller in respect of all Relevant Liabilities) shall not exceed the amount of £1.

4.3 The Buyer shall, to the extent exceeding £1, indemnify each Management Seller on demand in respect of all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by that Management Seller in defending Relevant Liabilities save for where there has been an established fraud (by a court or other judicial or regulatory body) by or on behalf of such Management Seller.

6.1.3 in any other case (including, without limitation, any costs and expenses or other amounts incurred pursuant to Clauses 2.1.8), the fifth Business Day after service by the Buyer to the Management Sellers of a written demand for payment.

6.2 If any default occurs in the payment to the Buyer when due of any sum payable under this Deed its liability shall be increased to include interest on such sum from the date when such payment is due until the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgement) at a rate per annum of five (5) per cent above the base rate from time to time of Barclays Bank PLC.
