exhaustion of the Gravel takes place this obligation shall not apply and SITA shall pay in accordance with the terms of this Agreement only for such Gravel as is actually sold.

accordance with clause 7.2 of this Agreement and/or [ * ] of revenue calculated in accordance with clause 8 in respect of such materials (as the case may be) (provided that if any such payment shall not be made within such period then the whole of
such payment due shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to 4% over the base rate from time to time of Lloyds Bank plc from the date on which the same first became due until payment in full). 


  

	7.10	 	In the first year and the last year of the Term, the amount of the Minimum Tonnage of Gravel shall be calculated pro rata based on the number of days in the Payment Year which fall

cease as regards the Pink-Hatched Land. 


  

	14.4	 	SITA hereby agrees to notify Brown & Sharpe and Lanz in writing immediately upon becoming aware of any event or omission which is (or may with the passage of time give rise to)
a breach of the terms of any of the agreements and/or obligations set out in clause 14.2 and of any proceedings or steps or possible or threatened proceedings or steps taken or instituted by the Local Authority and/or the Environment Agency and/or
any third parties in respect of any breach or alleged breach of such agreements and/or obligations. 

  

	15.	 	GUARANTEE 

  

	15.1	 	The Guarantor hereby undertakes forthwith to execute and deliver to Brown & Sharpe and to Lanz the Guarantee. 

  

	15.2	 	Should the net asset value of the Guarantor at any time during the Term fall to a value which is less than half of the Baseline Value SITA hereby covenants with Brown & Sharpe
and Lanz that it shall within a reasonable time (and in any event within 3 months) after receiving written notice from Brown & Sharpe or Lanz procure the execution of a new Guarantee by a new Guarantor whose current net worth is a least equal to
the Baseline Value and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provision of this Clause 15.2 shall apply equally to that replacement Guarantor and to any subsequent Guarantors throughout the Term. 

  

	15.3	 	

  

	15.3.1	 	SITA SA and SITA shall, within two months of any resolution of the shareholders of SITA SA which is passed in order to extend the corporate existence of SITA SA (and in any event no
later than 10/09/2017), deliver to BROWN & SHARP and to LANZ a certified copy of such shareholders’ resolution and a corporate registry certificate (extrait k-Bis or equivalent) providing evidence of such extension.


  

	15.3.2	 	If SITA SA and SITA fail so deliver the items referred to in clause 15.3.1 by 10/09/2017 SITA SA and SITA must, within 60 working days of 10/09/2017, jointly deliver a duly executed
and binding additional guarantee on the same terms as the Guarantee (but which shall not replace the Guarantee) given by a new Guarantor whose net worth at the time of delivery of such additional guarantee shall be at least equal to the Baseline
value. 

  

	15.3.3	 	The provisions of Clause 15.3.1 and 15.3.2 above shall apply in the case of any extension of the corporate existence of SITA SA or any additional or replacement Guarantor which will
itself expire before the end of the Term (save that references to the date of 10/09/2017 shall be deemed references to a date being 10 months before the expiry of such corporate existence). 

  

	15.4	 	 The assignment of SITA’s obligations in accordance with clause 13.3 shall not release or be deemed to release SITA SA from the obligations contained in the
Guarantee executed 



  










	 	 
pursuant to clause 15.1 and the Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect unless a substitute guarantor of at least equal standing to SITA SA as at
the date of this Agreement and acceptable to both of the Owners has assumed SITA SA’s obligations under the Guarantee.

Representative from within south-east England; and 

  

	 	(b)	 	* This confidential portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission

mineral extraction is selected as soon as possible and in any event no later than 5 working days after receipt of such request to determine the fair Price for Clay and that the person so selected shall be required to make such determination within
30 days of being selected and the parties hereby acknowledge that any such determination shall be final and binding upon them.

agreed or determined. 

  

	17.8	 	If after a Review Notice has been given to SITA the revised Price for Clay has not been agreed in accordance with clause 17.5 or has not been determined in accordance with clause

period then the whole of such payment due shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to 4% over the base rate from time to time of Lloyds Bank plc from the date on which the same first became due until payment in full). 

  

	17.10	 	All Clay extracted from the Owners’ Land shall be weighed and recorded over SITA’s weighbridge on the Third Land and within 14 days from the end of each calendar month
during the Term SITA shall provide to each of the Owners an account (the “Clay Account”) in accordance with the provisions of clause 17.11 showing for the preceding calendar month:

quantities of Clay extracted from the Owners’ Land or to verify any Clay Account provided by SITA. 

  

	17.11.3	 	Once in every year during the Term SITA shall arrange for an independent auditor to certify the quantities of Clay extracted from the Owners’ Land and any payment received in
respect thereof (the “Certificate”) and a copy of the Certificate shall be sent to each of the Owners no later than 28 days after the end of each calendar year after the date of this Agreement during the Term and in addition upon
determination of this Agreement for whatever reason within 28 days from the date of such determination. 

  

	17.11.4	 	The Owners shall have the right to appoint their own auditors independently to verify the accuracy of any Clay Account and/or any Certificate. SITA shall provide all necessary and
reasonable assistance to such auditors including but not limited to the provision of copy documents and access to SITA’s operations on the Land. SITA agrees to reimburse the Owners for the cost of any such independent verification should any
material discrepancy be identified between the amounts certified by the auditor appointed by the Owners and the amounts set out in the relevant Clay Account and/or Certificate. 

  

	18.	 	RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES 

  
 A person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Agreement
but this shall not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from that Act. 
  

	19.	 	NO LEASE
