6.    LEAKAGE
6.1    Subject to Closing having occurred and to clauses 6.2 to 6.5, the Seller undertakes to pay, on its own behalf or as agent for and on behalf of the relevant Sub-Seller, to the Buyer (or, at its direction to the relevant member of the Target Group) an amount in cash equal to:
(A)the value or amount of any Leakage received by, or made for the benefit of, the Seller or any Seller Related Party, or where such Leakage is Seller Transaction Costs or Seller Transaction Bonuses, the amount actually incurred, agreed to be paid or paid by any of the Target Companies; less
(B)any actual cash Tax saving or refund realised or to be realised by a member of the Target Group in the accounting period in which the Leakage takes place or the next accounting period as a result of a Tax deduction or Relief available to any member of the Target Group in respect of such Leakage,
(such amount, in aggregate, the “Actual Leakage Amount”).
6.2    The Seller shall make payment pursuant to clause 6.1 within 10 Business Days of the liability for and quantum of the relevant amount calculated pursuant to clause 6.1 having been either (i) agreed in writing between the Seller and the Buyer or (ii) determined by the Leakage Expert in accordance with clause 6.5, but provided always that until such agreement or determination has been made, the Seller shall have no liability in respect of such amount.
6.3    For the avoidance of doubt and subject to Closing having occurred, neither the Seller nor any Sub-Seller shall have any payment obligation under clause 6.1 in relation to (i) the Known Leakage Amount (such payment obligation having been fully and finally discharged by virtue of that Known Leakage Amount having been already deducted from the Base Consideration Amount pursuant to clause 4.1) or (ii) any Permitted Leakage.
6.4    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than clause 24.18):
(A)the Seller shall not be liable in respect of any Leakage Claim unless written notice of such Leakage Claim is given to the Seller (specifying, so far as then known, the nature and amount of the Leakage) as soon as reasonably possible upon the Buyer becoming aware of the same and in any event, on or before the date that is six months after the Closing Date. Following delivery of such written notice, the Buyer shall use reasonable endeavours to provide the Seller and its professional advisers (upon reasonable advanced notice) with copies, or reasonable access during working hours, subject to confidentiality undertakings, to the relevant books, records and working papers of the Target Group and/or the Buyer’s Group as may be reasonably necessary for the Seller to assess the Leakage Claim;
(B)any such Leakage Claim that has been notified pursuant to and in accordance with clause 6.4(A) shall be deemed to be irrevocably withdrawn (and the Seller shall have no liability in respect of it) unless legal proceedings in respect of such Leakage Claim have been commenced by being issued within six months of such notification;
(C)the maximum aggregate liability of the Seller under any and all Leakage Claims shall not in any circumstances exceed the Actual Leakage Amount less any applicable amount pursuant to clause 6.4(D) below;
(D)the Seller shall not be liable under or in respect of a Leakage Claim to the extent that it arises, or the amount of such Leakage Claim is increased (and in such circumstances,
26




the Seller shall not be liable for that increased amount), as a result of any legislation not in force at the date of this Agreement, any change of, or change of interpretation of, any law, regulation or directive or applicable requirement of a Governmental Entity which takes effect retroactively, any change in the rates of Tax in force at the date of this Agreement or any change in accounting policy or the accounting reference date of any Target Company after the date of this Agreement;
(E)any Leakage falling within paragraph 12 of Part A of Schedule 8 (“Tax Leakage”) shall be deemed received by the person by whom the Leakage giving rise to that Tax Leakage is (or is deemed to have been) received or for whose benefit that Leakage is made. Any Tax Leakage shall be deemed to occur at the same time as the Leakage giving rise to that Tax Leakage;
(F)the Buyer shall only be entitled to recover once in respect of the same item of Leakage and shall have no other remedy for any Leakage except as set out in this clause 6;
(G)if an amount of Leakage is incurred in any currency other than GBP, such amount shall be converted into GBP using the Exchange Rate on the date that such Leakage arose, occurred or was incurred; and
(H)there shall be no double recovery under this clause 6 and pursuant to Schedule 12 in respect of limb (ii) of Seller Transaction Bonuses.
6.5    If the liability for and/or quantum of Leakage and/or the amount referred to in clause 6.1 notified in a Leakage Claim is not agreed in writing between the Buyer and the Seller pursuant to clause 6.2 within 20 Business Days of the Leakage Claim being notified to the Seller in accordance with clause 6.4(A) (a “Leakage Dispute”):
(A)such Leakage Dispute shall be referred to an independent expert appointed by written agreement between the Buyer and the Seller acting reasonably (who shall be a partner at a member of the Big Four with at least ten years’ experience of dealing with similar matters; or, if such firm is not willing to act, a partner at a member of another firm of accountants of international repute with at least ten years’ experience of dealing with similar matters) or, in the absence of such agreement as to the independent expert within fifteen (15) Business Days after the expiry of the period referred to in this clause 6.5, the independent expert shall be chosen by the ICC International Centre for ADR in accordance with the Rules for the Appointment of Experts and Neutrals of the International Chamber of Commerce on the written application by either the Buyer or the Seller (whichever applies first, with the other in copy) (the “Leakage Expert”) on the basis that the Leakage Expert is to make its determination regarding the Leakage Dispute and notify the Seller and the Buyer of its decision within 20 Business Days of receiving the reference or such longer reasonable period as the Leakage Expert may determine.
(B)in any referral to the Leakage Expert in accordance with clause 6.5(A):
(1)the Leakage Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and in the absence of fraud or manifest error, the decision of the Leakage Expert shall be final and binding on the Buyer and the Seller;
(2)neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall engage in any ex parte communication with the Leakage Expert in relation to the Leakage Dispute;
27




(3)the Leakage Expert’s terms of reference shall be limited to determining the liability for and/or quantum of Leakage as set out in the notice of the relevant Leakage Claim that is in dispute between the Seller and the Buyer and providing written details as to the Leakage Expert’s determination of the same (setting out all material calculations and explanations used in arriving at such determination);
(4)the Leakage Expert’s determination with respect to any Leakage Dispute shall not exceed the highest value assigned by the Buyer to such item in the notice of the relevant Leakage Claim and shall not be lower than the liability for or quantum of Leakage (if any) in respect of such Leakage Claim asserted by the Seller (it being understood that such liability or quantum asserted by the Seller may be zero but shall not be less than zero);
(5)except to the extent that the Buyer and the Seller agree otherwise in writing, the Leakage Expert shall determine its own procedure, but the procedure of the Leakage Expert shall give the Buyer and the Seller a reasonable opportunity to make written representations to the Leakage Expert, and require a party to the Leakage Dispute to supply to the other party a copy of any written representations at the same time as they are supplied to the Leakage Expert;
(6)the Leakage Expert’s costs shall be borne (i) by the Party whose proposed value assigned to the relevant Leakage Claim is furthest from the Leakage Expert’s determination; or (ii) failing the applicability of (i), as otherwise determined by the Leakage Expert; and
(7)the Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate with the Leakage Expert, and shall comply with all reasonable requests (including requests for information relating to a member of the Target Group) made by the Leakage Expert in connection with the carrying out of its duties.
6.6    If any Target Company obtains any Relief which arises as a result of the payment of the Disclosed Seller Transaction Bonuses and/or any other payment or incentives provided by Seller Related Parties in connection with the Transaction (a “CT Deduction”), the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to the corporation tax actually saved by a Target Company as a result of such CT Deduction (the “CT Tax Saving”) within five Business Days of the date that the tax computations for the relevant accounting period have been filed with HMRC. The Buyer shall procure that, so far as permitted by law, the relevant Target Companies claim the CT Deduction in their corporation Tax returns for the accounting period current at Closing and shall not take any steps which are designed to prevent or delay the claim of the CT Deduction.
6.7    If any CT Tax Saving for which a payment has been made pursuant to clause 6.6 above is successfully challenged, in whole or in part, by HMRC and as a result of such challenge any Target Company becomes liable to make a payment, or increased payment, to HMRC, the Seller shall within 10 Business Days of written demand from the Buyer repay to the Buyer an amount equal to such payment or increased payment, provided that the repayment shall not exceed the sum actually paid by the Buyer to the Seller under clause 6.6.

3.On the settlement of a Relevant Award after Closing as a result of which Employee Taxation arises after Closing (a "Relevant Employee Taxation") the Seller will, or will procure that a member of the Seller’s Group will, within five Business Days from the date of such event, notify the Buyer of:
3.1    the details of that Relevant Award;
3.2    the amount of that Employment Income; and
3.3    the identity of the holder of that Relevant Award.
4.The Buyer will procure that the relevant Target Company will, within five Business Days of the receipt of any notice from the Seller or the relevant member of the Seller’s Group as referred to in paragraph 3, provide the Seller with all such information as it shall reasonably require for the purpose of ascertaining the amount of the Relevant Employee Taxation due to be accounted for in respect of the Employment Income, including but not limited to running and providing a calculation from a dummy payroll for the amount of the Relevant Employee Taxation payable on the amount of the Employee Income provided by the Seller under paragraph 3.2.
5.Subject to the Seller having received the information set out in paragraph 4 and only to the extent the Relevant Employee Taxation has not otherwise been provided for in the Locked Box Accounts, the EV to Equity Bridge and/or the Closing Payments Schedule or Known Leakage Amount, the Seller shall pay, on its own behalf or as agent for and on behalf of the relevant Sub-Seller, to the Buyer an amount equal to the Relevant Employee Taxation in respect of the relevant Employee at least three Business Days before the date the relevant Target Company is obliged to account for such amount to HMRC.
6.To the extent that the liability of any Target Company in respect of Relevant Employee Taxation is not satisfied pursuant to paragraph 5, the Seller shall to the fullest extent permitted

by law, fully indemnify (on demand), on its own behalf or as agent for and on behalf of the relevant Sub-Seller, the Buyer and each member of the Buyer’s Group and keep it and them fully and effectively indemnified at all times against any Relevant Employee Taxation and any fine, penalty, surcharge or interest connected therewith.
7.The Seller shall not be liable pursuant to the indemnity set out in paragraph 6 to the extent that such Relevant Employee Taxation, or fine, penalty, surcharge or interest connected therewith, arises as a result of (i) any delay by the Buyer to pay such amount of the Relevant Employee Taxation paid to it by the Seller under paragraph 5 to HMRC, or (ii) any information provided by the Buyer pursuant to paragraph 4 being incorrect.
8.Subject to the Seller having complied with its obligations in paragraphs 3, 5 and 6, if any Target Company obtains any Relief which arises from or relates to the Relevant Award (or Relevant Employee Taxation in respect of the Relevant Award) (a “CT Deduction”), the Buyer shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to the corporation tax actually saved by a Target Company as a result of such CT Deduction (the "CT Tax Saving") within five Business Days of the date that the tax computations for the relevant accounting period have been filed with HMRC. The Buyer shall procure that, so far as permitted by law, the relevant Target Companies claim the CT Deduction in their corporation Tax returns for the accounting period in which the Relevant Employee Taxation arises and shall not take any steps which are designed to prevent or delay the claim of the CT Deduction.
9.If any CT Tax Saving for which a payment has been made pursuant to paragraph 8 above is successfully challenged, in whole or in part, by HMRC and as a result of such challenge any Target Company becomes liable to make a payment, or increased payment, to HMRC, the Seller shall within 10 Business Days of written demand from the Buyer repay to the Buyer an amount equal to such payment or increased payment, provided that the repayment shall not exceed the sum actually paid by the Buyer to the Seller under paragraph 8 .
10.The Buyer shall procure that the Target Company provides all such information as the Seller or a member of the Seller's Group shall reasonably require in connection with any Share Plan, and the Seller shall, or shall procure that the relevant Seller or member of the Seller’s Group shall, provide all such information as the Buyer, member of the Buyer’s Group or relevant Target Company shall reasonably require in connection with any Share Plan.
11.For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no double recovery for any Relevant Employee Taxation under this Schedule 12, pursuant to a Leakage Claim and/or as included in the Known Leakage Amount.
