	8.	 	FACILITY RATIONALISATION







	8.1	 	If following Completion the board of JVCo resolves in accordance with the terms of the
Shareholders’ Agreement to cease operations at and dispose of a production facility (at
Billingham or Severnside as detailed in schedule 11 or at Ince as detailed in schedule 10)
(each a “Relevant Disposal” or a “Relevant Property", respectively) the provisions of this
clause 8 shall apply to the first such Relevant Property in respect of which such a resolution

to this agreement is referred to in this clause 8 as the “Contributing Party".







	8.2	 	JVCo shall, in respect only of the first Relevant Property following Completion to be the
subject of a resolution by the board of JVCo under clause 8.1, give written notice on each
anniversary of such resolution (each a “Facility Rationalisation Costs Notice") to the

Rationalisation Costs".

	8.3	 	(a)	 	At any time following the later of (i) a
resolution of the board of JVCo under clause
8.1 and (ii) the cessation of operations at
the Relevant Property in question, the
relevant Contributing Party may elect to
acquire that Relevant Property from the
relevant member of the Group for the sum of
£1 and an amount equal to any Costs incurred
by the Group in relation to the Relevant
Property prior to such time (net of any
Aggregate Facility Rationalisation Costs
paid by the Contributing Party to JVCo
pursuant to clause 8.2) and upon the making
of such an election JVCo shall be bound to
procure the transfer of title to and all
rights in the Relevant Property owned or
enjoyed by any member of the Group to the
Contributing Party, and the Contributing
Party shall be bound to acquire title to and
all rights in the Relevant Property and
assume all liabilities in relation to the
Relevant Property, for such consideration.







	 	 	(b)	 	At any time following the fifth anniversary of a resolution by the board of
JVCo under clause 8.1, the party (other than JVCo) that is not the Contributing Party
in respect of the Relevant Property may elect that the Contributing Party shall
acquire that Relevant Property from the relevant member of the Group for the sum of £1
and an amount equal to any Costs incurred by the Group in relation to the Relevant
Property prior to such time (net of any Aggregate Facility Rationalisation Costs paid
by the Contributing Party to JVCo pursuant to clause 8.2) and upon the making of such
an election JVCo shall be bound to procure the transfer of title to and all rights in
the Relevant Property owned or enjoyed by any member of the Group to the Contributing
Party, and the Contributing Party shall be bound to acquire title to and all rights in
the Relevant Property and assume all liabilities in relation to the Relevant Property,
for such consideration.







	 	 	(c)	 	If the acquisition of a Relevant Property pursuant to clause 8.3(a) or 8.3(b)
results in any Actual Tax Liability, which for the purpose of this clause 8.3 includes
an Actual Tax Liability of JVCo, the relevant Contributing Party covenants to pay to
JVCo an amount equal to that Actual Tax Liability on the later of (i) seven days after
the demand therefor by JVCo and (ii) three days before the last day on which a payment
of that Tax may be made by JVCo without incurring any liability to interest and/or
penalties.







	 	 	(d)	 	If the acquisition of a Relevant Property pursuant to clause 8.3(a) or 8.3(b)
results in any allowance, credit, exemption, deduction or relief from, against or in
respect of any Tax which has been used by JVCo or the Group to reduce an Actual Tax
Liability of JVCo or the Group which would otherwise have become due and payable or
JVCo or the Group receives a right to repayment of Tax which would not otherwise have
arisen (a “Relief"), JVCo covenants to pay to the relevant Contributing Party an
amount equal to such Relief within five days of the date on which (i) the Actual Tax
Liability would otherwise have been due and payable or (ii) the right to repayment of
Tax is received.







	 	 	(e)	 	The provisions of clause 7 of the Kemira Tax Deed or the Terra Tax Deed, as
applicable, shall apply to any claims pursuant to clauses 8.3(c) and (d) above.







	8.4	 	If no election is made in respect of a Relevant Property under clause 8.3 and the Costs
incurred by the Group in connection with the related Relevant Disposal exceed the disposal
proceeds (before Tax) resulting from that Relevant Disposal, the Contributing Party shall,
subject to clause 8.6, pay to JVCo the amount (if any) by which such excess exceeds £1
million. Such payment shall be made within 14 days of completion of the Relevant Disposal. Any
payment made by the Contributing Party to JVCo pursuant to this clause 8.4 shall be paid net
of the amount of any Aggregate Facility Rationalisation Costs paid by the Contributing Party
to JVCo pursuant to clause 8.2. For the purposes of this
clause 8.4, if completion of a Relevant Disposal does not occur prior to midday on the
tenth anniversary of Completion, the disposal proceeds shall be deemed to be zero.





 


13









 











	8.5	 	If no election is made in respect of a Relevant Property under clause 8.3 and the disposal
proceeds (after Tax) resulting from the related Relevant Disposal exceed the Costs incurred by
the Group in relation to that Relevant Disposal, JVCo shall, subject to clause 8.6, pay to the
Contributing Party the amount (if any) by which such excess exceeds £1 million. Such payment
shall be made within 14 days of completion of the Relevant Disposal. Any payment made by JVCo
to the Contributing Party pursuant to this clause 8.5 shall also include the repayment to the
Contributing Party of an amount equal to any Aggregate Facility Rationalisation Costs paid by
it to JVCo pursuant to clause 8.2. For the purposes of this clause 8.5, if completion of a
Relevant Disposal does not occur prior to midday on the tenth anniversary of Completion, the
disposal proceeds shall be deemed to be zero.







	8.6	 	Neither JVCo nor any Contributing Party shall be liable for any claim under this clause 8
unless written notice of such claim is served on it not later than 5.00 p.m. on the tenth
anniversary of Completion, save in respect of the indemnity under clause 8.11 to which no time
limit shall apply.







	8.7	 	The Contributing Party shall be entitled to direct the closure and sale process relating to
any Relevant Disposal, including as to the extent to which and the manner in which any related
Costs are incurred but not, for the avoidance of doubt, including any matters relating to the
cessation of employment of any employees employed at the Relevant Property, provided, however,
that the Contributing Party shall not be entitled to direct any action to be taken or not
taken:







	 	 	(a)	 	which conflicts in any way with any requirements of law or of any regulatory
authority; or







	 	 	(b)	 	which causes, or would in the opinion of JVCo (acting reasonably) be likely
to cause, unreasonable, avoidable disruption or interruption to the operations of any
member of the Group or to the operational efficiency of its business which may result
from such action or which poses a material risk to worker or public health and safety.







	8.8	 	For the purposes of this clause 8:







	 	 	(a)	 	“Costs” shall mean all costs reasonably incurred by the Group in relation to
a Relevant Disposal including all related Environmental Closure Costs but excluding
any related employment redundancy costs or related pension costs in each case that are
incurred by JVCo and any amount paid pursuant to clause 8.3(c);







	 	 	(b)	 	“Environmental Closure Costs” means Commercially Reasonable Expenses
(including legal fees, technical consultants’, engineers’ and experts’ fees, and costs
arising from JVCo’s dealings with any regulatory authorities) incurred during or in
preparation for closure or as part of any post-closure process in relation to any
inspection, investigation, sampling and monitoring works at the site of any Relevant
Property and the carrying out of any works (including, without limitation, the removal
of plant or equipment infrastructure or other structures and all remediation, removal,
encapsulation and reinstatement works, measures and actions) in order to remove,
remediate, clean-up, ameliorate, abate or restrict the effects of or contain
contamination or pollution at or emanating from the site of any Relevant Property in
order that such site complies, on the basis of continuing industrial use, with the
minimum requirements of Environmental Laws and/or any enforceable requirements under
Environmental Laws of any competent authority including for the surrender of any
applicable Environmental Consent and as applicable at the time of the Relevant
Disposal but excludes:





 


14









 











	 	 	(i)	 	any costs to the extent that such costs relate to contamination
or pollution introduced in the course of JVCo’s operating activities after
Completion and/or measures required to address any such contamination or
pollution, which costs shall be for the sole account of JVCo; and







	 	 	(ii)	 	any costs relating to the demolition or removal of buildings,
removal of pipework or other structures or infrastructures including buried
structures or infrastructure and/or removal of asbestos in each case to the
extent that such can be safely left in situ or otherwise dealt with in a
cost-effective manner in circumstances where their removal is not required to
comply with Environmental Law;







	 	 	(c)	 	“Environmental Losses” means all claims, damages, costs, expenses (including
reasonable professional fees incurred), losses, liabilities or penalties suffered or
incurred by JVCo or by the relevant Kemira Company or Terra Company (as the case may
be) after Completion to the extent arising from a breach of or liability under
Environmental Law in respect of (a) Hazardous Substances in, on, at or under the
Relevant Property or any part(s) thereof on or before Completion, (b) Hazardous
Substances first in, on, at or under the Relevant Property or any part(s) thereof
after Completion, where the damage or risk in respect of which a breach or liability
arises is attributable to activities forming part of the closure process or (c) the
migration of any such Hazardous Substances from the Relevant Property or any part(s)
thereof (including carrying out or paying for any Relevant Property Remediation Works
to the extent the same are Commercially Reasonable Expenses), but excluding:
Environmental Closure Costs; any claims, costs, damages, expenses, losses, liabilities
or penalties in respect of loss of anticipated profits; loss of revenue; loss of use;
cost of capital; or any other loss in respect of business interruption; and







	 	 	(d)	 	“Relevant Property Remediation Works” means all those investigations, works,
measures and other actions which are the minimum required under Environmental Laws to
discharge or mitigate any liability under Environmental Laws (including all such
remediation, removal, encapsulation and reinstatement works, measures and actions but
excluding any Environmental Closure Costs) in relation to Hazardous Substances in, on,
at or under the Relevant Property or any part(s) thereof on or before Completion or
the migration or release of such from the Relevant Property or any part(s) thereof.







	8.9	 	In the event there shall occur any dispute between the parties to this agreement in relation
to the quantification of Costs for the purposes of this clause 8 which cannot be resolved
between the parties, the dispute shall be referred to an independent firm of chartered
accountants (the “Expert") appointed by agreement by JVCo and the relevant Contributing Party
or, in default of agreement on such appointment, on the application of either of them by the
President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales,
or his duly appointed deputy. In making such determination the Expert shall act as an expert
and not as an arbitrator and his decision shall (in the absence of manifest error (and the
Expert shall give reasons for his determination)) be final and binding on such parties. Each
such party shall bear the costs and expenses of all counsel and other advisers, witnesses and
employees retained by it and the costs and expenses of the Expert shall be borne by such
parties in the proportions he may direct or, in the absence of direction, equally. Subject to
any rule of law or of any regulatory authority to the contrary, JVCo and the relevant
Contributing Party shall, to the extent they are able to do so, afford as soon as reasonably
practicable upon request to the other and their respective agents and to the Expert all
facilities and access to any premises, personal papers, books, accounts, records, returns and
other documents as may be required by the Expert to make his determination. In the event of
any dispute as to the need for, nature or extent of any Environmental Closure Costs or
Environmental Losses, the parties shall apply the provisions of paragraph 11 of schedule 13
mutatis
mutandis to such dispute save that references to Indemnifying Party shall be construed as references to the relevant
Contributing Party.

	8.10	 	JVCo on behalf of itself and each Group Company undertakes to Kemira and to Terra that it will not:







	 	 	(a)	 	dispose of any Relevant Property without complying with the foregoing
provisions of this clause 8;







	 	 	(b)	 	incur any Environmental Closure Costs or any Relevant Property Remediation
Works at a Relevant Property otherwise than at the direction of the relevant
Contributing Party under clause 8.7 or with the consent of the relevant Contributing

where required by a regulatory authority acting within its powers under Environmental
Law;







	 	 	(c)	 	except in an emergency, approach or initiate communications with any
regulatory authority in relation to the closure of such Relevant Property without the
consent of the relevant Contributing Party, such consent not to be unreasonably

Consent or any competent authority or in response to an emergency, take any action or
omit to take any action without the consent of the relevant Contributing Party (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) which it is known by JVCo or the
relevant Group Company at the time of the act or omission will increase, or would be
reasonably likely to increase, the liability of any Contributing Party under the
foregoing provisions of this clause 8.







	8.11	 	The Contributing Party shall indemnify and keep indemnified JVCo (for itself and on behalf of
the applicable Terra Companies or Kemira Companies) in respect of all Environmental Losses
incurred in relation to the Relevant Property, provided always that JVCo shall not be entitled
to claim under this indemnity unless JVCo or the applicable Terra Company or Kemira Company
has received a Claim in respect of the matter giving rise to such Environmental Losses.







	8.12	 	JVCo shall provide written notice to the Contributing Party of any matter of which it or any
Terra Company or Kemira Company becomes aware which gives rise to or is reasonably likely to
give rise to a claim under clause 8.11 above and shall notify the Contributing Party
immediately upon receipt of a Claim in relation to any such matter, provided that failure to
give or delay in giving notice under this clause 8 shall not invalidate JVCo’s right to claim
in respect of such matter under this indemnity, except and only to the extent that such
failure or delay increases the penalties, losses, costs, claims, expenses, liabilities and
damages which it seeks to recover under clause 8.11.







	8.13	 	The Contributing Party shall have no liability under the indemnity at clause 8.11 to the
extent that any claim by JVCo would not have arisen but for, results from or is increased by:

Completion except for (i) those acts or omissions that are in the normal lawful course
of the Activities as at the date of this agreement and (ii) those acts or omissions
that are undertaken in the course of the cessation of operations and/or closure of the
Relevant Property pursuant to this clause 8;

or by Terra or Kemira to a regulatory body, governmental agency or third party other
than where:





 


16









 











	 	 	(i)	 	the disclosure is required to be given in order to comply with
law or in connection with any Environmental Consent or otherwise in response to
a request by a regulatory authority acting within its powers under
Environmental Law;







	 	 	(ii)	 	the disclosure is reasonably necessary in an emergency to avoid
or mitigate Environmental Losses;







	 	 	(iii)	 	the disclosure is reasonably necessary in the course of the
cessation of operations and/or closure of the Relevant Property pursuant to
this clause 8; or







	 	 	(iv)	 	the Indemnifying Party gives prior consent to such disclosure
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);







	 	 	(c)	 	any acts or omissions by JVCo or any Group Company at the Relevant Property
(including the carrying out of investigative, sampling or monitoring works) which
result in disturbance of or interference with any Hazardous Substance (other than
where such acts or omissions form a necessary part of or precursor to the Activities
or to Ordinary Course Construction or are reasonably necessary in the course of the
cessation of operations and/or closure of the Relevant Property and/or an emergency
(to avoid or mitigate Environmental Losses) or are required by a competent authority
or under Environmental Law or Environmental Consents); or







	 	 	(d)	 	any laws (other than the implementation into UK law of the EU environmental
liability directive) whose purpose is the protection of or prevention of harm to the
Environment and which come into force after Completion.







	8.14	 	The relevant Indemnifying Party shall have no liability under the indemnity at clause 8.11 in
respect of any Environmental Loss to the extent that such loss has been properly budgeted for
in the Business Plan or forms part of Environmental Closure Costs or is an Aggregate Facility
Rationalisation Cost.







	8.15	 	Any payment made by JVCo or a Contributing Party pursuant to this clause 8 shall for all
purposes be deemed to be and shall take effect as a reduction or increase in the Kemira
Consideration or the Terra Consideration as the case may be.

	9.1	 	Following Completion, in the event that JVCo resolves in accordance with the terms of the
Shareholders’ Agreement that improvements or modifications to the scrubbing system at the NPK
plant at the Kemira Property are required to be made by law, Kemira shall be entitled (subject
to any requirement of law and to minimising, to the extent reasonably practicable, any
disruption or interruption to the operations of any member of JVCo or to the operational
efficiency of its business) to direct the extent to which and the manner in which any
expenditure is incurred by JVCo for such purposes.







	9.2	 	If the expenditure actually incurred by the Group for the purposes described in clause 9.1
exceeds £2 million, Kemira shall, subject to clause 9.5, pay on demand to JVCo the amount (if
any) by which such excess exceeds £1 million.







	9.3	 	If the expenditure actually incurred by the Group for the purposes described in clause 9.1 is
less than £2 million, JVCo shall, subject to clause 9.5, pay on demand to Kemira as additional
consideration for the Kemira Shares the amount (if any) by which the shortfall exceeds £1
million.







	9.4	 	For the purposes of clauses 9.2 and 9.3, “expenditure” incurred by JVCo shall be limited to
the costs it has incurred in purchasing and installing any scrubbing equipment for and/or
otherwise modifying or improving the scrubbing system at the NPK plant at the Kemira
Property to the extent required by law.

	9.5	 	Neither Kemira nor JVCo shall be liable for any claim under this clause 9 unless written
notice of such claim is served on them not later than 5.00 p.m. on the fifth anniversary of
Completion.







	9.6	 	In the event there shall occur any dispute between Kemira and JVCo in relation to the
quantification of expenditure actually incurred by JVCo for the purposes of this clause 9
which cannot be resolved between them, the dispute shall be referred to an independent firm of
chartered accountants (the “Expert") appointed by agreement by them or, in default of
agreement on such appointment, on the application of either of them by the President for the
time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, or his duly
appointed deputy. In making such determination the Expert shall act as an expert and not as an
arbitrator and his decision shall (in the absence of manifest error (and the Expert shall give
reasons for his determination)) be final and binding on such parties. Each such party shall
bear the costs and expenses of all counsel and other advisers, witnesses and employees
retained by it and the costs and expenses of the Expert shall be borne by such parties in the
proportions he may direct or, in the absence of direction, equally. Subject to any rule of law
to the contrary, JVCo and Kemira shall, to the extent they are able to do so, afford as soon
as reasonably practicable upon request to the other and their respective agents and to the
Expert all facilities and access to any premises, personal papers, books, accounts, records,
returns and other documents as may be required by the Expert to make his determination.

(Ashurst) are complete and correct in all material respects.

	 
	19.	 	PENSIONS

	 
	19.1	 	Save in respect of the Kemira GrowHow UK Limited Pension Fund, the Kemira Limited Pension
Scheme and the Kemira GrowHow UK Limited Stakeholder Pension Plan (the “Disclosed Schemes"),
each Company has no obligation, nor has it done anything to create any reasonable expectation
of an obligation, to provide (or contribute towards any scheme which provides) pension or
death benefits, whether voluntary, ex-gratia or otherwise, in respect of any employee or
former employee.

	 
	19.2	 	So far as Kemira is aware, neither it nor any Company has at any time participated in or
contributed towards any former scheme or arrangement (the “Former Scheme") which has as its
purpose or one of its purposes the provision of pension or death benefits (whether voluntary,
ex-gratia or otherwise) other than schemes which have been fully wound up.

	 
	19.3	 	All material details of the Disclosed Schemes (and any Former Scheme) have been supplied to
Terra and all the information and documents which have been given or made available to Terra
or its advisers relating to the Disclosed Schemes (or any Former Scheme) are true, complete,
accurate and not misleading.

	 
	19.4	 	The Disclosed Schemes (and any Former Scheme) have at all times been operated in all material
respects in accordance with the provisions of its governing documentation, all applicable EU
and domestic legislation, and the general requirements of law and regulatory practice
(including without limitation those of HMRC).

	 
	19.5	 	Each Company has fulfilled all its obligations in respect of pension and death benefits in
relation to the Disclosed Schemes (and any Former Scheme), including without limitation
providing equal access to membership in respect of any current and former employees, and all
contributions which have fallen due for payment in respect of the Disclosed Schemes (or any
Former Scheme) have been paid within any applicable prescribed period.

	 
	19.6	 	No claim or litigation is outstanding, pending or, so far as Kemira is aware, threatened
against any Company in connection with the Disclosed Schemes or otherwise in connection with
the provision of pension or death benefits to any current or former employee (including
without limitation any investigation by the Pensions Ombudsman or any complaint brought under
any internal dispute resolution procedure).

	 
	19.7	 	All death benefits which may be payable are fully insured under a life assurance policy with
an appropriately authorised insurance company and, so far as Kemira is aware, there is no
ground on which liability under such policy may be avoided.

	 
	19.8	 	Neither Kemira nor any Company has been a party to any act or deliberate failure to act
occurring on or after 27 April 2004 of which the main purpose or one of the main purposes was:







	 	 	(a)	 	to prevent the recovery of the whole or any part of a debt which was, or
might become due, from an employer in relation to a pension scheme under section 75 of
the Pensions Act 1995; or







	 	 	(b)	 	otherwise than in good faith, to prevent such a debt becoming due, to
compromise or otherwise settle such a debt, or to reduce the amount of such a debt
which would otherwise become due.





 


49









 












	19.9	 	Neither Kemira nor any Company is or has at any point within the 12 months prior to
Completion been “connected” with or an “associate” of any employer which participates in a
defined benefit pension scheme (other than the Disclosed Schemes) and which is either a
“service company” or “insufficiently resourced”. For these purposes, “connected” and
“associate” have the meanings given to them in sections 435 and 249 of the Insolvency Act 1986
respectively and “service company” and “insufficiently resourced” have the meanings given to
them in section 44 of the Pensions Act 2004 and regulations made under that section.







	19.10	 	Each Company has complied with its notification obligations under section 69 or section 70
of the Pensions Act 2004 and regulations made under that section. Kemira is not aware of any
current circumstances which may give rise to an obligation to make such a report to the
Regulator under sections 69 or 70 of the Pensions Act 2004.







	20.	 	TAXATION

	 
	20.1	 	Returns

statutes and have kept all records, made all returns and supplied all information and given
all notices to HMRC or other Taxation Authority as reasonably requested or required by law
within any requisite period and so far as Kemira is aware all such returns and information
and notices and any statements or disclosures made to any Taxation Authority are correct
and accurate in all material respects and are not the subject of any dispute and there are
no facts or circumstances likely to give rise to or be the subject of any such dispute.







	20.2	 	Clearances

	 
	 	 	No action has been taken by any Kemira Company in respect of which any consent or clearance
from HMRC or other Taxation Authority was required save in circumstances where such consent
or clearance was validly obtained, and where any conditions attaching thereto were and
will, immediately following Completion, continue to be met.

	 
	20.3	 	Payment of Tax

	 
	 	 	Each Kemira Company has duly and punctually paid all Tax to the extent that the same ought
to have been paid and is not liable nor has it within three years prior to the date hereof
been liable to pay any penalty or interest in connection therewith.

	 
	20.4	 	Tax arising under this Agreement

	 
	 	 	So far as Kemira is aware, no Kemira Company will become liable to any Tax (and in
particular to any Tax pursuant to the PAYE provisions or any national insurance
contributions) in consequence of the entering into or completion of this agreement or
anything done pursuant to its terms.

	 
	20.5	 	Withholdings

	 
	 	 	Each Kemira Company has duly complied within the relevant time period with its obligations
to deduct, withhold or retain amounts of or on account of Tax from any payments made by it

all its reporting obligations to the relevant Taxation Authority in connection with any

contributed towards any former scheme or arrangement (the “Former Scheme") which has as its
purpose or one of its purposes the provision of pension or death benefits (whether voluntary,

benefit pension scheme (other than the Disclosed Schemes) and which is either a “service
company” or “insufficiently resourced”. For these purposes, “connected” and “associate” have
the meanings given to them in sections 435 and 249 of the Insolvency Act 1986 respectively and
“service company” and “insufficiently resourced” have the meanings given to them in section 44
of the Pensions Act 2004 and regulations made under that section.

the Pensions Act 2004 and regulations made under that section. Terra is not aware of any

circumstances likely to give rise to or be the subject of any such dispute.

extension, grant or transfer of or compliance with, any current Environmental Consents
within the period of 18 months from the date hereof.

	 
	21.2	 	Liability

	 
	 	 	The Company, including in respect of the Terra Properties, complies and has at all times in
the last three years complied with all Environmental Laws in all material respects and so
far as Terra is aware there are no existing facts or circumstances which would prevent
compliance with any Environmental Laws in any material respect within 18 months of the date
hereof.

	 
	21.3	 	Notices and Complaints

	 
	 	 	In the last three years, the Company has not received any written notice of enforcement,
prohibition, improvement, remediation or other notice of equivalent nature, or any
judgment, order, decree, award, demand or decision in respect of damage, harm or risk to or
pollution of the Environment or the use, presence, migration leakage, emission, spillage,
release, discharge, entry, deposit, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Substance
arising from the activities of the Company or relating to any Terra Property from any
court, tribunal, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority which is material
and/or which remains outstanding nor has it received any other written complaints or other
written indications of any possible claims or legal actions (whether civil, criminal or
administrative) against the Company in respect of such matters in such period which are
material and/or remain outstanding in respect thereof from any person including any
neighbour, governmental or regulatory authority, current or former employee or third party
and so far as Terra is aware, there are no circumstances that are reasonably likely to lead
to legal action in respect of such matters in the next 18 months.

	 
	21.4	 	Contaminated Land

	 
	 	 	So far as Terra is aware, there has not been and there is not present in the soil,
groundwater or surface water, on, at or under the Terra Properties and there is and has
been no release, migration, leakage, spillage, discharge, entry, deposit or emission onto
or from the Terra Properties of any Hazardous Substance which has led to, or if such matter
were known by a regulatory authority or third party at Completion would be reasonably
likely to result in, a material liability under Environmental Laws for the Company or an
obligation to undertake material remediation works at the Terra Properties.

	 
	21.5	 	Documentation

	 
	 	 	Copies of all material environmental and health and safety reports, assessments and
investigations in respect of employees, the Terra Properties, Former Terra Properties or
Activities prepared in the last three years and in the possession of and/or commissioned by
Terra or the Company have been disclosed to Kemira.





 


71









 





	21.6	 	Former Properties

	 
	 	 	Terra is not aware of any release, migration, leakage, spillage, discharge, entry, deposit
or emission onto or from the Former Terra Properties of any Hazardous Substance during the
period in which the Former Terra Properties were in the ownership or under the occupation
or control of the Company which has led to, or if such matter were known by a regulatory
authority or third party at Completion would be reasonably likely to result in, a material
liability under Environmental Laws for the Company.

	 
	21.7	 	Contractual liabilities

	 
	 	 	So far as Terra is aware, the Company has not given an environmental indemnity or
environmental covenant to pay in respect of soil, groundwater or surface water
contamination (whether at or emanating from the Terra Properties, the Former Terra
Properties or any other properties) which remains capable of being claimed against at the
date hereof (“Pre-Completion Terra Environmental Indemnity"). For the avoidance of doubt,
general covenants and indemnities which do not refer specifically to contamination, for
example general repairing obligations in leases or licences, shall not be within the
definition of Pre-Completion Terra Environmental Indemnity.

SCHEDULE 8




Kemira’s Limitations on Liability





	1.	 	TIME LIMIT FOR CLAIMS

	 
	1.1	 	Save in the case of any liability based upon fraud by Kemira and including without limitation
fraudulent concealment by Kemira, Kemira shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the
Kemira Warranties unless written notice of such claim is served upon Kemira:







	 	(a)	 	in the case of a claim under the Kemira Warranties (other than the Warranties
relating to Tax and the Kemira Environmental Warranties), by not later than 5.00 p.m.
on the second anniversary of Completion;

	 
	 	(b)	 	in the case of a claim under the Kemira Environmental Warranties, by not
later than 5.00 p.m. on the third anniversary of Completion; and

	 
	 	(c)	 	in the case of a claim under the Kemira Warranties relating to Tax or under
the Kemira Tax Deed, by not later than 5.00 p.m. on the day one month after the
seventh anniversary of Completion,







and the liability of Kemira shall further determine (if such claim has not previously been
satisfied, settled or withdrawn):




	 	(i)	 	where the claim is based upon what at the time of service of
the notice is a contingent liability; or

	 
	 	(ii)	 	JVCo is taking or has taken action at the request of Kemira
pursuant to paragraph 5 of this schedule 8 in connection with such claim,







if legal proceedings in respect of such claim have not been commenced within 12 months of
such claim ceasing to be contingent or JVCo ceasing to take such action (as the case may
be) or with regard to any other claim if legal proceedings in respect of such a claim have
not been commenced within 12 months of the service of such notice.




	2.	 	MONETARY LIMIT ON CLAIMS

	 
	2.1	 	Save in the case of fraud or fraudulent concealment by Kemira, Kemira shall be under no
liability in respect of any claim under the Kemira Warranties:







	 	(a)	 	where the liability of Kemira in respect of that claim would (but for this
paragraph) have been less than £100,000 (provided that two or more smaller claims
arising out of the same facts or circumstances shall be treated as one claim for the
purposes of this paragraph 2.1(a)); or

	 
	 	(b)	 	unless and until and only to the extent that the liability in respect of that
claim (not being a claim for which liability is excluded under paragraph 2.1(a) above)
when aggregated with the liability of Kemira in respect of all other such claims and
all other claims for which Kemira is liable under schedule 13 of this agreement shall
exceed £1 million, in which case Kemira shall be liable for the full amount and not
just the excess.







	2.2	 	Save in the case of fraud or fraudulent concealment by Kemira, the aggregate liability of
Kemira in respect of all claims under the Kemira Warranties and the Kemira Tax Deed shall not
in any circumstances exceed £20 million. (For the avoidance of doubt, the financial limit on
Kemira’s maximum aggregate liability of £20 million in respect of the Kemira Warranties and
the Kemira Tax Deed is a separate limitation from the maximum
aggregate liability of £20 million of Kemira under the Environmental Indemnity set out in
paragraph 3.2 of schedule 13 of this agreement.)





 


73









 





	 
	3.	 	DISCLOSURE

	 
	 	 	Kemira shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the Kemira Warranties to the extent
that the same or circumstances giving rise thereto are fairly disclosed in the Kemira
Disclosure Letter. No letter, document or other communication shall be deemed to be
disclosed except and to the extent that the same is referred to in, and a copy attached to
or deemed to be attached to, the Kemira Disclosure Letter. Nothing in the Kemira Disclosure
Letter shall constitute a representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the information
forming part of the Kemira Disclosure Letter.

	 
	4.	 	NO LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN EVENTS

	 
	4.1	 	Kemira shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the Kemira Warranties to the extent
that:







	 	(a)	 	the claim or the events giving rise to the claim would not have arisen but
for an act, omission or transaction carried out by or at the request of or with the
informed consent of Terra or JVCo prior to Completion; or

	 
	 	(b)	 	the loss or damage giving rise to the claim is recovered by any member of the
Group under any policy of insurance (net of Tax and any costs of recovery); or

	 
	 	(c)	 	the claim is for Taxation which arises in respect of the ordinary course of
business of any Kemira Company after the Kemira Accounts Date; or

	 
	 	(d)	 	the claim relates to a claim or liability for Taxation and would not have
arisen but for any winding-up or cessation after Completion of any business or trade
carried on by the Group except to the extent that such winding-up or cessation is
occasioned by the facts or circumstances giving rise to one or more claims under the
Kemira Warranties.







	5.	 	THIRD PARTIES

	 
	5.1	 	This paragraph 5 shall apply in circumstances where:







	 	(a)	 	any claim is made against any member of the Group which should reasonably be
expected to give rise to a claim by JVCo against Kemira under the Kemira Warranties;
or

	 
	 	(b)	 	any member of the Group should reasonably be expected to be able to make
recovery from some other person of any sum in respect of any facts or circumstances by
reference to which JVCo has or should be reasonably expected to have a claim against
Kemira under the Kemira Warranties; or

	 
	 	(c)	 	Kemira has paid to JVCo an amount in respect of a claim under the Kemira
Warranties and subsequent to the making of such payment JVCo recovers from some other
person a sum which is referable to that payment.

	 
	 	 	 	For the avoidance of doubt any claim under the Kemira Warranties relating to Tax shall be
governed by paragraph 4 of the Kemira Tax Deed.






 


74









 










	5.2	 	JVCo shall:







	 	(a)	 	in the case of paragraphs 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) prior to taking any action (other
than the giving of notice pursuant to paragraph 1 of this schedule 8) against Kemira
under the Kemira Warranties (and subject to JVCo being indemnified to its
reasonable satisfaction against all costs and expenses which may be incurred by
reason of such action) take all such action as Kemira may reasonably request in
writing including the institution of proceedings and the instruction of professional
advisers approved in writing by Kemira to act on behalf of JVCo to avoid, dispute,
resist, compromise, defend or appeal against any such claim against JVCo as is
referred to in paragraph 5.1(a) or to make such recovery by JVCo as is referred to
in paragraph 5.1(b), as the case may be;

	 
	 	(b)	 	subject to JVCo being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against all
costs and expenses which may be incurred by reason of such action, not settle or
compromise any liability or claim to which such action is referable without the prior
written consent of Kemira which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
and

	 
	 	(c)	 	in the case of paragraph 5.1(c) only, repay to Kemira an amount equal to the
amount recovered upon receipt or, if lower, the amount paid by Kemira to JVCo less, in
either case, any amount payable by JVCo in respect of Tax on the amount recovered.







	6.	 	MITIGATION

	 
	 	 	JVCo will take or procure the taking of all such reasonable steps as are required by law in
order to mitigate any claim under the Kemira Warranties, subject to JVCo being indemnified
to its reasonable satisfaction against all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith.

	 
	7.	 	CURING PERIOD

	 
	 	 	No liability will arise and no claim may be made under any of the Kemira Warranties to the
extent that the matter giving rise to such claim is remediable unless within the period of
30 days following JVCo becoming aware of such matter JVCo shall have given written notice
thereof to Kemira and such matter shall not have been remedied to the reasonable
satisfaction of JVCo within the period of 30 days following the date of service of such
notice.

	 
	8.	 	NO DOUBLE COUNTING

	 
	 	 	JVCo shall not be entitled, pursuant to any provision of a Transaction Document, to claim
or recover the amount of any loss, damage, liability, cost or expenses which it has
incurred or suffered, or any amount to which it would otherwise be entitled under any such
provision, to the extent that it has recovered such amount pursuant to another provision in
the Transaction Documents.

	 
	9.	 	INSURANCE

	 
	 	 	In the event that Kemira at any time after the date hereof shall wish to take out insurance
against its liability hereunder, JVCo will undertake all reasonable endeavours to provide
such information as the prospective insurer may require before effecting such insurance.

SCHEDULE 9




Terra’s Limitations on Liability





	1.	 	TIME LIMIT FOR CLAIMS

	 
	1.1	 	Save in the case of any liability based upon fraud by Terra and including without limitation
fraudulent concealment by Terra, Terra shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the
Terra Warranties unless written notice of such claim is served upon Terra:







	 	(a)	 	in the case of a claim under the Terra Warranties (other than the Warranties
relating to Tax and the Terra Environmental Warranties), by not later than 5.00 p.m.
on the second anniversary of Completion;

	 
	 	(b)	 	in the case of a claim under the Terra Environmental Warranties, by not later
than 5.00 p.m. on the third anniversary of Completion; and

	 
	 	(c)	 	in the case of a claim under the Terra Warranties relating to Tax or under
the Terra Tax Deed, by not later than 5.00 p.m. on the day one month after the seventh
anniversary of Completion,







and the liability of Terra shall further determine (if such claim has not previously been
satisfied, settled or withdrawn):




	 	(i)	 	where the claim is based upon what at the time of service of
the notice is a contingent liability; or

	 
	 	(ii)	 	JVCo is taking or has taken action at the request of Terra
pursuant to paragraph 5 of this schedule 9 in connection with such claim,







if legal proceedings in respect of such claim have not been commenced within 12 months of
such claim ceasing to be contingent or JVCo ceasing to take such action (as the case may
be) or with regard to any other claim if legal proceedings in respect of such a claim have
not been commenced within 12 months of the service of such notice.




	2.	 	MONETARY LIMIT ON CLAIMS

	 
	2.1	 	Save in the case of fraud or fraudulent concealment by Terra, Terra shall be under no
liability in respect of any claim under the Terra Warranties:







	 	(a)	 	where the liability of Terra in respect of that claim would (but for this
paragraph) have been less than £100,000 (provided that two or more smaller claims
arising out of the same facts or circumstances shall be treated as one claim for the
purposes of this paragraph 2.1(a)); or

	 
	 	(b)	 	unless and until and only to the extent that the liability in respect of that
claim (not being a claim for which liability is excluded under paragraph 2.1(a) above)
when aggregated with the liability of Terra in respect of all other such claims and
all other claims for which Terra is liable under schedule 13 of this agreement shall
exceed £1 million, in which case Terra shall be liable for the full amount and not
just the excess.







	2.2	 	Save in the case of fraud or fraudulent concealment by Terra, the aggregate liability of
Terra in respect of all claims under the Terra Warranties and the Terra Tax Deed shall not in
any circumstances exceed £20 million. (For the avoidance of doubt, the financial limit on
Terra’s maximum aggregate liability of £20 million in respect of the Terra Warranties and the
Terra Tax Deed is a separate limitation from the maximum aggregate liability of £20 million of
Terra under the Environmental Indemnity set out in paragraph 3.2 of schedule 13 of this
agreement.)





 


76









 











	3.	 	DISCLOSURE

	 
	 	 	Terra shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the Terra Warranties to the extent
that the same or circumstances giving rise thereto are fairly disclosed in the Terra
Disclosure Letter. No letter, document or other communication shall be deemed to be
disclosed except and to the extent that the same is referred to in, and a copy attached to
or deemed to be attached to, the Terra Disclosure Letter. Nothing in the Terra Disclosure
Letter shall constitute a representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the information
forming part of the Terra Disclosure Letter.

	 
	4.	 	NO LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN EVENTS

	 
	4.1	 	Terra shall not be liable in respect of a claim under the Terra Warranties to the extent
that:







	 	(a)	 	the claim or the events giving rise to the claim would not have arisen but
for an act, omission or transaction carried out by or at the request of or with the
informed consent of Kemira or JVCo prior to Completion; or

	 
	 	(b)	 	the loss or damage giving rise to the claim is recovered by any member of the
Group under any policy of insurance (net of Tax and any costs of recovery); or

	 
	 	(c)	 	the claim is for Taxation which arises in respect of the ordinary course of
business of the Terra Company after the Terra Accounts Date; or

	 
	 	(d)	 	the claim relates to a claim or liability for taxation and would not have
arisen but for any winding-up or cessation after Completion of any business or trade
carried on by the Group except to the extent that such winding-up or cessation is
occasioned by the facts or circumstances giving rise to one or more claims under the
Terra Warranties.







	5.	 	THIRD PARTIES

	 
	5.1	 	This paragraph 5 shall apply in circumstances where:







	 	(a)	 	any claim is made against any member of the Group which should reasonably be
expected to give rise to a claim by JVCo against Terra under the Terra Warranties; or

	 
	 	(b)	 	any member of the Group should reasonably be expected to be able to make
recovery from some other person of any sum in respect of any facts or circumstances by
reference to which JVCo has or should be reasonably expected to have a claim against
Terra under the Terra Warranties; or

	 
	 	(c)	 	Terra has paid to JVCo an amount in respect of a claim under the Terra
Warranties and subsequent to the making of such payment JVCo recovers from some other
person a sum which is referable to that payment.

	 
	 	For the avoidance of doubt any claim under the Terra Warranties relating to Tax shall be
governed by paragraph 4 of the Terra Tax Deed.







	5.2	 	JVCo shall:







	 	(a)	 	in the case of paragraphs 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) prior to taking any action (other
than the giving of notice pursuant to paragraph 1 of this schedule 9) against Terra
under the Terra Warranties (and subject to JVCo being indemnified to its reasonable
satisfaction against all costs and expenses which may be incurred by reason of such
action) take all such action as Terra may reasonably request in writing including the
institution of proceedings and the instruction of professional advisers
approved in writing by Terra to act on behalf of JVCo to avoid, dispute, resist,
compromise, defend or appeal against any such claim against JVCo as is referred to
in paragraph 5.1(a) or to make such recovery by JVCo as is referred to in paragraph
5.1(b), as the case may be;





 


77









 





	 	(b)	 	subject to JVCo being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against all
costs and expenses which may be incurred by reason of such action, not settle or
compromise any liability or claim to which such action is referable without the prior
written consent of Terra which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
and

	 
	 	(c)	 	in the case of paragraph 5.1(c) only, repay to Terra an amount equal to the
amount recovered upon receipt or, if lower, the amount paid by Terra to JVCo less, in
either case, any amount payable by JVCo in respect of Tax on the amount recovered.







	6.	 	MITIGATION

	 
	 	 	JVCo will take or procure the taking of all such reasonable steps as are required by law in
order to mitigate any claim under the Terra Warranties, subject to JVCo being indemnified
to its reasonable satisfaction against all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith.

	 
	7.	 	CURING PERIOD

	 
	 	 	No liability will arise and no claim may be made under any of the Terra Warranties to the
extent that the matter giving rise to such claim is remediable unless within the period of
30 days following JVCo becoming aware of such matter JVCo shall have given written notice
thereof to Terra and such matter shall not have been remedied to the reasonable
satisfaction of JVCo within the period of 30 days following the date of service of such
notice.

	 
	8.	 	NO DOUBLE COUNTING

	 
	 	 	JVCo shall not be entitled, pursuant to any provision of a Transaction Document, to claim
or recover the amount of any loss, damage, liability, cost or expenses which it has
incurred or suffered, or any amount to which it would otherwise be entitled under any such
provision, to the extent that it has recovered such amount pursuant to another provision in
the Transaction Documents.

	 
	9.	 	INSURANCE

	 
	 	 	In the event that Terra at any time after the date hereof shall wish to take out insurance
against its liability hereunder, JVCo will undertake all reasonable endeavours to provide
such information as the prospective insurer may require before effecting such insurance.

“Balancing Consideration"), together with interest thereon at the rate of two per cent. per
annum above the base rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time for the period from 31

	2.2	 	If JVCo shall determine, in accordance with clause 6 (Reserved Matters) of the Shareholders’
Agreement, that any Excess Cash is available for payment to Terra from time to time then JVCo
undertakes promptly to pay to Terra such Excess Cash during the period from Completion until
and including 31 December 2010, provided that the aggregate of all such payments under this
paragraph 2.2 shall not exceed £20 million.





 


88









 





	2.3	 	Any payment due under paragraph 2.1 and/or paragraph 2.2 shall be made by way of telegraphic
transfer in immediately available funds to such bank account as is notified by Terra to JVCo
for such purpose.

	 
	3.	 	DETERMINATION OF 2008 EBITDA

	 
	3.1	 	For the purpose of determining the 2008 EBITDA, JVCo shall prepare and deliver draft 2008
Accounts and a draft statement of the 2008 EBITDA as derived from the 2008 Accounts (the
“Draft Financial Statements") to Terra as soon as reasonably practicable following 31 December
2008 and in any event not later than 45 Business Days from 31 December 2008.

	 
	3.2	 	Terra shall notify JVCo within 30 Business Days of receipt of the Draft Financial Statements
whether or not it accepts the Draft Financial Statements for the purposes of this schedule 12.

	 
	3.3	 	If Terra notifies JVCo in writing that it does not accept the Draft Financial Statements (a
“Terra Disagreement Notice"):







	 	(a)	 	Terra shall, at the same time, set out in a notice in writing the reasons in
reasonable detail for such non-acceptance and proposed adjustments which, in the
opinion of Terra, should be made to the Draft Financial Statements in order to comply
with the requirements of this schedule 12 and deliver a copy of such notice to JVCo;
and

	 
	 	(b)	 	Terra and JVCo shall use all reasonable endeavours to meet and discuss the
objections of Terra and shall attempt in good faith to reach agreement upon the
adjustments (if any) required to be made to the Draft Financial Statements.







	3.4	 	If JVCo and Terra reach agreement on the Draft Financial Statements (either as originally
submitted or after adjustments agreed between Terra and JVCo) or if Terra fails to notify JVCo
of the non-acceptance of the Draft Financial Statements within the 30 Business Day period
referred to in paragraph 3.2, then the Draft Financial Statements (incorporating any agreed
adjustments) shall become the Final Financial Statements and shall determine the 2008 EBITDA
for the purposes of this agreement.







	3.5	 	If Terra and JVCo do not reach agreement within 20 Business Days of Terra’s notice of
non-acceptance pursuant to paragraph 3.2, then the matters in dispute and in respect of which
details have been provided by Terra to JVCo at the time that it notified JVCo that it did not
accept the Draft Financial Statements in accordance with paragraph 3.3(a) above (and only
those) shall be referred, on the application of either party, for determination by the
Reporting Accountants.







	3.6	 	Within 21 days of appointing the Reporting Accountants, JVCo may by notice to Terra indicate
that, in light of the fact that Terra has not accepted the Draft Financial Statements in their
entirety, it wishes the Reporting Accountants to consider matters relating to the Draft
Financial Statements in addition to those specified in the Terra Disagreement Notice, such
notice stating in reasonable detail the reasons why and in what respects JVCo believes that
the Draft Financial Statements should be altered (the “JVCo’s Disagreement Notice").







	3.7	 	The Reporting Accountants shall be engaged jointly by Terra and JVCo on the terms set out in
this paragraph 3 and otherwise on such terms as shall be agreed; provided that neither Terra
nor JVCo shall unreasonably (having regard, inter alia, to the provisions of this paragraph 3)
refuse its agreement to terms proposed by the Reporting Accountants or by the other party. If
the terms of engagement of the Reporting Accountants have not been settled within 45 days of
their identity having been determined (or such longer period as Terra and JVCo may agree)
then, unless Terra or JVCo is unreasonably refusing
agreement to those terms, those accountants shall be deemed never to have become the
Reporting Accountants and new Reporting Accountants shall be selected in accordance with
the provisions of this agreement.





 


89









 











	3.8  	 	Except to the extent that JVCo and Terra agree otherwise, the Reporting Accountants shall
determine their own procedure but:







	 	 	(a)	 	apart from procedural matters and as otherwise set out in this agreement the
Reporting Accountants shall determine only:







	 	 	(i)	 	whether any of the arguments for an alteration to the Draft
Financial Statements put forward in the Terra Disagreement Notice or JVCo’s
Disagreement Notice is correct in whole or in part; and

	 
	 	 	(ii)	 	if so, what alterations should be made to the Draft Financial
Statements in order to correct the relevant inaccuracy in it;







	 	 	(b)	 	shall apply the principles set out in paragraph 7 of this schedule;

	 
	 	 	(c)	 	shall make their determination pursuant to paragraph 3.8(a) above as soon as
is reasonably practicable;

	 
	 	 	(d)	 	the procedure of the Reporting Accountants shall:







	 	 	(i)	 	give JVCo and/or JVCo’s accountants and Terra and/or Terra’s
accountants a reasonable opportunity to make written and oral representations
to them on the matters in dispute to them;

	 
	 	 	(ii)	 	require that each of JVCo and Terra supply the other with a
copy of any written representations at the same time as they are made to the
Reporting Accountants;

	 
	 	 	(iii)	 	permit each party to be present while oral submissions are
being made by the other party; and

	 
	 	 	(iv)	 	for the avoidance of doubt, the Reporting Accountants shall not
be entitled to determine the scope of their own jurisdiction.







	3.9  	 	The determination of the Reporting Accountants pursuant to paragraph 3.8(a) shall:







	 	 	(a)	 	be made in writing and be made available for collection by JVCo and Terra at
the offices of the Reporting Accountants at such time as they shall determine;

	 
	 	 	(b)	 	state what adjustments (if any) are necessary to the Financial Statements in
respect of the matters in dispute in order to comply with the requirements of this
schedule 12; and

	 
	 	 	(c)	 	unless otherwise agreed by JVCo and Terra, include reasons for each relevant
determination.







	3.10	 	The Reporting Accountants shall act as experts (and not as arbitrators) and their
determination of any matter falling within their jurisdiction shall be final and binding on
the parties save in the absence of manifest error (when the relevant part of their
determination shall be void and the matter shall be remitted to the Reporting Accountants for
correction). In particular, without limitation, their determination shall be deemed to be
incorporated into the Draft Financial Statements.







	3.11	 	Each party shall bear the costs and expenses of all counsel and other advisers, witnesses and
employees retained by it and the costs and the expenses of the Reporting
Accountants shall be borne between Terra and JVCo in such proportions as the firm shall in
its discretion determine or, in the absence of any such determination, equally.





 


90









 











	3.12	 	When Terra and JVCo reach (or pursuant to paragraph 3.4 are deemed to reach) agreement on the
Draft Financial Statements or when the Draft Financial Statements are finally determined at
any stage in accordance with the procedures set out in this paragraph 3, the Draft Financial
Statements as so agreed or determined shall determine the 2008 EBITDA for the purposes of this
agreement and shall be final and binding on JVCo and Terra.







	3.13	 	JVCo and Terra shall co-operate with the Reporting Accountants and comply with their
reasonable requests made in connection with the carrying out of their duties under this
agreement. In particular, without limitation, JVCo shall keep up-to-date and, subject to
reasonable notice, make available during normal office hours to the Reporting Accountants all
books and records relating to the Group as the Reporting Accountants may reasonably request
during the period from the appointment of the Reporting Accountants down to the making of the
relevant determination.







	3.14	 	Nothing in this schedule shall entitle a party or the Reporting Accountants access to any
information or document which is protected by legal professional privilege or litigation
privilege, provided that neither JVCo nor Terra shall be entitled to refuse to supply such
part or parts of documents as contain only the facts on which the relevant claim or argument
is based.







	3.15	 	Each of JVCo and Terra and the Reporting Accountants shall, and shall procure that its
accountants and other advisers shall, keep all information and documents provided to them
pursuant to this paragraph 3 confidential and shall not use the same for any purpose, except
for disclosure or use in connection with the preparation of the Draft Financial Statements,
the proceedings of the Reporting Accountants or another matter arising out of this agreement
or in defending any claim or argument or alleged claim or argument relating to this agreement
or its subject matter.







	4.	 	DETERMINATION OF 2009 EBITDA

	 
	 	 	For the purposes of determining the 2009 EBITDA, the provisions of paragraph 3 shall apply
mutatis mutandis save that references to 2008 therein shall be deemed to be references to
2009 and references to 2009 therein shall be deemed to be references to 2010.

	 
	5.	 	DETERMINATION OF 2010 EBITDA

	 
	 	 	For the purposes of determining the 2010 EBITDA, the provisions of paragraph 3 shall apply
mutatis mutandis save that references to 2008 therein shall be deemed to be references to
2010 and references to 2009 therein shall be deemed to be references to 2011.

	 
	6.	 	PROTECTION







	6.1	 	If the Shareholders’ Agreement terminates in accordance with the terms of such agreement
prior to the end of the Deferred Consideration Period then JVCo agrees that it:







	 	(a)	 	shall not dispose of any interest in the Shares or any of them or grant any
option over, or right to acquire, or mortgage, charge or otherwise encumber the Shares
or any of them or agree to do any of the foregoing; and

	 
	 	(b)	 	shall procure that there is no disposal of any interest in the share capital
of any Group Company, nor any granting of option over, or right to acquire, or
mortgage, charge or otherwise encumber the share capital of any Group Company nor
agreement to do any of the foregoing,
in each case without the prior consent of Terra (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).





 


91









 











	6.2	 	JVCo agrees that it will not and it shall procure that none of the Group Companies will take
any action intended, or having the likely effect, to frustrate the payment of, or which is
primarily intended, or having the likely effect, to reduce the amount of, the Balancing
Consideration.

	 
	6.3	 	JVCo further agrees that:







	 	(a)	 	in the event that the Shareholders’ Agreement terminates, prior to 31
December 2010, due to an Event of Default on the part of Terra then for the period
from the Termination Date until 31 December 2010 the provisions of paragraph 6.4 shall
apply;

	 
	 	(b)	 	in the event that the Shareholders’ Agreement terminates, prior to 31
December 2010, due to an Event of Default on the part of Kemira then for the period
from the Termination Date until 31 December 2010 the provisions of paragraph 6.5 shall
apply; and

	 
	 	(c)	 	in the event that the Shareholders’ Agreement terminates, prior to 31
December 2010, for any reason then for the period from 31 December 2010 until the date
of payment, in full, of the Balancing Consideration the provisions of paragraph 6.5
shall apply.







	6.4	 	In the case and during the period set out in paragraph 6.3(a) above, JVCo agrees to procure
that, without the prior consent of Terra (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed):







	 	(a)	 	the business of the Group is conducted in the ordinary course in accordance
with sound and good business practice;

	 
	 	(b)	 	the Group will not cease or suspend carrying on all or a significant part of
its business in whole or in part, or reduce the scale of all or a significant part of
its business operations (including by way of a disposal);

	 
	 	(c)	 	no Group Company will enter into a transaction on terms which artificially
increase the costs incurred by it or reduce the revenues received by it, or enter into
any transaction which is not on a commercial basis and on arm’s length terms;

	 
	 	(d)	 	no dividend shall be declared or paid and no other distribution shall be made
by JVCo on account of shares in its capital (including, without limitation, any
reduction of JVCo’s share capital or any redemption of shares in JVCo’s capital); and

	 
	 	(e)	 	no Group Company shall enter into any transaction or make any payment with
Kemira or any Associated Company, otherwise than on arm’s length commercial terms.







	6.5	 	In the cases and during the periods set out in paragraphs 6.3(a) and 6.3(c) above, JVCo
agrees to procure that, without the prior consent of Terra (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed):







	 	(a)	 	the business of the Group is conducted in the ordinary course in accordance
with sound and good business practice;

	 
	 	(b)	 	the Group will not cease or suspend carrying on all or a significant part of
its business in whole or in part, or reduce the scale of all or a significant part of

92









 





	 	(c)	 	no Group Company will enter into a transaction on terms which artificially
increase the costs incurred by it or reduce the revenues received by it, or enter into
any transaction which is not on a commercial basis and on arm’s length terms;

	 
	 	(d)	 	no Group Company will interfere with or do anything the purpose of which is
to impair or adversely affect the relationship of the Group with its clients or to
transfer away from the Group any of its clients;

	 
	 	(e)	 	save as required for the continuing development of the business of the Group
and as agreed with Terra (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
no Group Company will acquire any shares or other interest in any company,
partnership, business or other venture, or merge with any other person or enter into
any joint venture, partnership or association with any other person;

	 
	 	(f)	 	no dividend shall be declared or paid and no other distribution shall be made

undertaking of any member of the Group, PROVIDED THAT nothing in the foregoing shall
preclude or restrict the directors of such Group Company from taking any of the

his decision shall (in the absence of manifest error (and the Expert shall give reasons for
his determination)) be final and binding on the parties.







	11.5	 	Each party shall bear the costs and expenses of all counsel and other advisers, witnesses and
employees retained by it and the costs and expenses of the Expert shall be borne by the
parties in the proportions he may direct or, in the absence of direction, equally. Where, in

conduct of the relevant dispute, he shall apportion proportionately his costs and all other
costs and expenses in relation to the determination to that party.







	11.6	 	Subject to any rule of law or of any regulatory body or any provision of any contract or
arrangement entered into prior to the date of this agreement to the contrary, the JVCo and the
Indemnifying Party shall afford as soon as reasonably practicable upon request to the other
and their respective agents and to the Expert all facilities and access to their respective
premises, personal papers, books, accounts, records, returns and other documents as may be in
their respective possession or under their respective control as may be required by the Expert
to make his determination.

determination, save where both parties expressly agree otherwise.

	 
	12.	 	ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND INDEMNITY FROM JVCO







	12.1	 	Without prejudice to paragraph 2 of this schedule (subject to the limitations therein) and
save in respect of Kemira Environmental Losses or Terra Environmental Losses that are
reasonable thereunder and save in respect of the Kemira Property or Terra Property (as the
case may be) which is a Relevant Property and falls within clause 8 of this agreement, JVCo
shall indemnify and keep Terra and Kemira (as the case may be) indemnified in respect of all
and any actions, judgments, penalties, damages, losses, costs, claims, expenses, liabilities
and demands suffered or incurred by Terra and/or Kemira (as the case may be) wholly or partly
arising from or consequent upon any Hazardous Substances in, on, at or escaping from or
affecting soil, groundwater, surface water at or under any Terra Property and/or any Kemira
Property at any time including any claims from any third party (including former or current
employees of Terra and Kemira) in relation to exposure to such Hazardous Substances (but not
including any Hazardous Substance within any building or structure on such property) including
without limitation any liability arising out of or consequent upon any action required or
carried out in relation to such Hazardous Substances at any time by any regulatory authority.







	12.2	 	The provisions of paragraph 8 of this schedule shall apply in relation to the indemnity at
paragraph 12.1 above save that references in that paragraph 8 to:







	 	 	(a)	 	paragraph 2 shall refer to paragraph 12.1;

	 
	 	 	(b)	 	paragraph 8.1(b) shall refer to paragraph 12.2(b);

	 
	 	 	(c)	 	paragraph 8.1(c) shall refer to paragraph 12.2(c);

	12.3	 	The parties agree that save in respect of the Kemira Property or Terra Property which falls
within clause 8 of this agreement the provisions of this schedule 13 are to be treated as an
agreement on liabilities both under Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and
generally for the purposes of ensuring (subject to paragraph 2) that Terra and Kemira shall
have no liability in respect of any Hazardous Substances in, on, at or escaping from or
affecting any Terra Property or any Kemira Property and JVCo shall provide a copy of this
schedule 13 on demand to any regulatory authority when requested so to do by Terra and Kemira
and shall not challenge the application of it as an agreement on liabilities.







	12.4	 	If a regulatory authority should disregard any of the provisions within this schedule 13, the
provisions of paragraphs 2 and 12.1 shall apply so as to restore the financial position of the
parties to that which would have prevailed had the regulatory authority not disregarded any of
those provisions.







	12.5	 	Save in the case of fraud or fraudulent concealment by Terra or Kemira, JVCo irrevocably
waives, releases, discharges and acquits Terra and Kemira from any and all claims or causes of
action by JVCo (whether based on statute, regulation or common law) in relation to any
liability under Environmental Law or otherwise for Hazardous Substances in, on, at or escaping
from or affecting any Terra Property or Kemira Property except for those rights of claim
specifically set forth in this agreement. Nothing in this agreement
shall render Terra liable for any liability of Kemira under this schedule nor render Kemira
liable for any liability of Terra under this schedule 13.

Liability under this schedule, the Buyer shall promptly pay to the Covenantor an
amount equal to so much of the recovery or Relief or other benefit received (less any
Tax paid by the recipient in respect thereof) as does not exceed the amount which the
Covenantor has previously paid under this schedule (together with so much of any
interest or repayment supplement paid to the recipient of the recovery or Relief or
benefit in respect thereof as corresponds to the proportion of the recovery or Relief
or benefit accounted for under this paragraph); and

Liability, the amount of such recovery, Relief or other benefit (less any Tax paid by
the recipient in respect thereof, but together with any interest or repayment
supplement received) shall be offset against any subsequent payment which the
Covenantor would otherwise have been liable to make.

recipient in respect thereof, but together with any interest or repayment supplement received)
exceeds the amount which the Covenantor has previously paid under this schedule or the amount

Liability, then such excess shall be carried forward and set off against any future claims
made against the Covenantor under this schedule.

	 	(b)	 	any contingency or provision in respect of Tax in the Kemira Completion
Accounts proves to be overstated.

	6.2	 	Any Refund obtained (less any reasonable costs of obtaining it) shall be promptly paid by the
Buyer to the Covenantor.







	7.	 	RESISTANCE OF CLAIMS







	7.1	 	If the Buyer or the Company becomes aware of any Claim for Tax which may result in the Buyer
having a claim against the Covenantor under this schedule (or which would so result in any
such case but for the provisions of paragraph 2.2), the Buyer shall give notice to the
Covenantor in the manner provided in this agreement and in any event at least 21 days prior to
the expiry of any time limit in which an appeal against the Claim for Tax has to be made and
the Covenantor shall be entitled at its sole discretion (but after consultation with the
Buyer) to resist such Claim for Tax in the name of the Buyer or the Company or any of them but

to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.







	7.2	 	The Buyer shall give and shall procure that the Company gives the Covenantor all reasonable
co-operation, access and assistance, technical or otherwise, for the purpose of resisting such
Claim for Tax.







	8.	 	COUNTER INDEMNITY

which the Covenantor or any member of the Covenantor’s Group becomes liable as a result of the

	 	(l)	 	the liability of the Covenantor in respect thereof is limited or restricted
pursuant to the provisions of schedule 9 of this agreement.







	3.	 	TIMING







	3.1	 	Where the Covenantor becomes liable to make any payment pursuant to paragraph 2, the due date
for the making of that payment shall be the later of seven days after the date of demand
therefor and:







	 	(a)	 	insofar as the claim relates to an Actual Tax Liability, three days before
the last day on which a payment of that Tax may be made by the Company without
incurring any liability to interest and/or penalties;

	 
	 	(b)	 	insofar as the claim arises in respect of a Deemed Tax Liability:







	 	(i)	 	which relates to the loss, non-availability or reduction of a
repayment of Tax, three days before the day on which such repayment (or
increased repayment) of Tax would have been due;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	which relates to the loss, non-availability or reduction of any
Terra Completion Accounts Relief other than a repayment of Tax, three days
before the last date on which the Company must (to avoid any charge to
interest/penalties) pay any Tax which it would not, but for such loss,
non-availability or reduction have had to pay; and

	 
	 	(iii)	 	which relates to the utilisation or set-off of a Buyer’s
Relief against any Actual Tax Liability, three days before the last date on
which the Company would, but for such utilisation or set-off, have been liable
to pay such Actual Tax Liability to avoid any charge to interest/penalties;







	 	(c)	 	insofar as the claim arises pursuant to paragraph 2.1(c), three days before
the day on which the costs and expenses fall due for payment.







	3.2	 	If any sum due under paragraph 2 is not paid by the Covenantor by the Due Date (and save to
the extent that the Buyer is compensated for such late payment by reason of its claim under
this schedule extending to penalties and interest), the same shall carry interest (from such
later date until the date of payment) at the rate of two per cent. over base rate for the time
being of Barclays Bank Plc (or in the absence of such rate at such equivalent rate as the
Buyer shall select).







	4.	 	RIGHT TO REIMBURSEMENTS AND CREDITS







	4.1	 	If the Buyer or the Company is or becomes entitled to recover from some other person any
amount as a result of or by reference to any Tax Liability which is likely to result or has
resulted in a payment by the Covenantor to the Buyer under this schedule, then the Buyer shall
promptly notify the Covenantor of the said entitlement and, if so required by the Covenantor
and if the Covenantor undertakes to pay all reasonable costs and expenses properly incurred by the Buyer and the Company, shall and shall procure that the
Company shall enforce that recovery (keeping the Covenantor fully informed of progress) and
shall apply the same in accordance with paragraph 4.2.





 


126









 











	4.2	 	If the Buyer or the Company receives a recovery as mentioned in paragraph 4.1 or a Relief or
other benefit as a result of a Tax Liability which gives rise to a claim by the Buyer under
the terms of this schedule, then:







	 	(a)	 	where the Covenantor has previously paid any amount in respect of such Tax
Liability under this schedule, the Buyer shall promptly pay to the Covenantor an
amount equal to so much of the recovery or Relief or other benefit received (less any
Tax paid by the recipient in respect thereof) as does not exceed the amount which the
Covenantor has previously paid under this schedule (together with so much of any
interest or repayment supplement paid to the recipient of the recovery or Relief or
benefit in respect thereof as corresponds to the proportion of the recovery or Relief
or benefit accounted for under this paragraph); and

	 
	 	(b)	 	where the Covenantor has not yet paid any amount in respect of such Tax
Liability, the amount of such recovery, Relief or other benefit (less any Tax paid by
the recipient in respect thereof, but together with any interest or repayment
supplement received) shall be offset against any subsequent payment which the
Covenantor would otherwise have been liable to make.







	4.3	 	To the extent the sum recovered or Relief or benefit received (less any Tax paid by the
recipient in respect thereof, but together with any interest or repayment supplement received)
exceeds the amount which the Covenantor has previously paid under this schedule or the amount
of any subsequent payment which would otherwise have been made in respect of that Tax
Liability, then such excess shall be carried forward and set off against any future claims
made against the Covenantor under this schedule.







	5.	 	OVERPROVISIONS







	5.1	 	The Covenantor may require the auditors for the time being of the Company to certify (at the
Covenantor’s expense) the existence and amount of any overprovision and the Buyer shall
provide, or procure that the Company provides, any information or assistance reasonably
required for the purpose of production by the auditors of a certificate to that effect.







	5.2	 	If any liability contingency or provision in the Terra Completion Accounts has proved to be
an overprovision, then the amount of such overprovision shall be dealt with in accordance with
paragraph 5.3.







	5.3	 	Where it is provided under paragraph 5.2 that any amount is to be dealt with in accordance
with this paragraph 5.3:







	 	(a)	 	the amount of the overprovision shall first be set against any payment then
due from the Covenantor under this schedule or other provision of this agreement;

	 
	 	(b)	 	to the extent there is an excess, a refund shall be made to the Covenantor of
any previous payment or payments made by the Covenantor under this schedule or other
provision of this agreement (and not previously refunded) up to the amount of the
excess; and

	 
	 	(c)	 	to the extent that the excess referred to in paragraph 5.3(b) is not
exhausted under that paragraph, the remainder of that excess shall be carried forward
and set against any future payment or payments which become due from the Covenantor to
the Buyer under this schedule or other provision of this agreement.






 


127









 








	5.4	 	For the purposes of this paragraph an overprovision exists if:







	 	(a)	 	any liability in respect of Tax has been overstated in the Terra Completion
Accounts, or such liability has been discharged or satisfied below the amount
attributed thereto in the Terra Completion Accounts; or

	 
	 	(b)	 	any contingency or provision in respect of Tax in the Terra Completion
Accounts proves to be overstated.







	6.	 	REFUNDS







	6.1	 	The Buyer shall promptly notify the Covenantor of any repayment or right to a repayment of
Tax which the Company is or becomes entitled to or receives in respect of a Relevant Event
occurring or period prior to Completion, where or to the extent that such right or repayment
was not included in the Terra Completion Accounts as an asset (a “Refund”).







	6.2	 	Any Refund obtained (less any reasonable costs of obtaining it) shall be promptly paid by the
Buyer to the Covenantor.







	7.	 	RESISTANCE OF CLAIMS







	7.1	 	If the Buyer or the Company becomes aware of any Claim for Tax which may result in the Buyer
having a claim against the Covenantor under this schedule (or which would so result in any
such case but for the provisions of paragraph 2.2), the Buyer shall give notice to the
Covenantor in the manner provided by this agreement and in any event at least 21 days prior to
the expiry of any time limit in which an appeal against the Claim for Tax has to be made and
the Covenantor shall be entitled at its sole discretion (but after consultation with the
Buyer) to resist such Claim for Tax in the name of the Buyer or the Company or any of them but
at the expense of the Covenantor and to have the conduct of any appeal or incidental
negotiations PROVIDED THAT:







	 	(a)	 	the Buyer shall be kept informed of all relevant material matters pertaining
to the Claim for Tax; and

	 
	 	(b)	 	no material written communication pertaining to the Claim for Tax (and in
particular no proposal for or consent to any settlement or compromise thereof) shall
be transmitted to HMRC or other Taxation Authority or governmental body or authority
without the same having been submitted to and approved by the Buyer, such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.







	7.2	 	The Buyer shall give and shall procure that the Company gives the Covenantor all reasonable
co-operation, access and assistance, technical or otherwise, for the purpose of resisting such
Claim for Tax.







	8.	 	COUNTER INDEMNITY







	8.1	 	The Buyer covenants with the Covenantor to pay to the Covenantor any liability to Tax for
which the Covenantor or any member of the Covenantor’s Group becomes liable as a result of the
failure by the Company or any member of the Buyer’s Group to discharge the same.






8.2 The covenant contained in paragraph 8.1 shall:




	 	(a)	 	extend to all costs reasonably and properly incurred by the Covenantor or
such other person in connection with such liability to Tax under paragraph 8.1;

	 
	 	(b)	 	not apply to any liability to Tax to the extent that the Buyer could claim
payment in respect of it under paragraph 2; and

	 
	 	(c)	 	apply to any such liability to Tax arising in any jurisdiction.





 


128









 











	8.3	 	Paragraphs 3 and 7 of this schedule shall apply to the covenants contained in this paragraph
8 as they apply to the covenants contained in paragraph 2, replacing references to the
Covenantor by the Buyer (and vice versa) and making any other necessary modifications.
