|7.8 | The Executive is entitled to 28 days paid holiday each year (in addition to English bank and other public holidays) subject to any election
the Executive may choose to make pursuant to the Companys flexible benefits scheme. Any election the Executive may choose to make pursuant to the Companys flexible benefits scheme to increase his holiday entitlement will be subject to
prior Board or Chief Executive of the Parent Companys approval. All holiday must be taken at times approved in advance by the Board or by the Parent Companys Chief Executive. The Executives holiday year commences in the month of
his birth and ends on the preceding month in the following year. Holidays may not be carried forward from one holiday year to the next without the Boards prior approval. The Executive agrees the provisions of Regulations
15(1)-(4) inclusive of the Regulations (dates on which leave is taken) do not apply to the Employment.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Holiday entitlement will accrue from day to day. For part years, the Executives holiday entitlement for the year will be pro-rated to the length of his service in that year. The Executive will be
paid for any accrued holiday not taken at the Termination Date unless the Employment is terminated for gross misconduct or in accordance with clause 11.6. The Company may require the Executive to take any accrued holiday during any notice period. If
on the Termination Date the Executive has exceeded his accrued holiday entitlement, the excess may be deducted from any sums due to him. The formula for calculating the amount of holiday due to the Executive and any payments or repayments to be made
is 1/260 of the Executives annual base salary.



|7.9 | The rules governing sickness absence are set out in the Companys Sickness Absence Policy which is available on the intranet. The Executive
must comply with these rules. Without prejudice to any right of the Company to terminate the Employment at any time pursuant to clause 11, if the Executive is absent from work as a result of sickness or injury then provided that the rules are
complied with, the Executive shall be entitled to sick pay in accordance with the rules of the Company sick pay scheme as detailed below:

| | 7.9.2 | The amount of any benefit which the Executive is entitled to claim during that period of absence under any Social Security or National Insurance
Scheme in England and Wales and/or any scheme of which the Executive is a non-contributory member by virtue of the Employment will be deducted from any base salary paid to him. The Company will pay the Executive statutory sick pay under the Social
Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (as amended) (SSP) and any base salary paid to him will be deemed to include statutory sick pay. The Company reserves the right to offset the amount of these benefits against base
salary paid to the Executive even if the Executive has not recovered them.
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 7.9.3 | Any sick pay or allowances in excess of SSP paid after the end of the periods referred to above is entirely at the Companys discretion.
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7.10 | If the Executive is absent from work due to sickness or injury which is caused by the fault of another person, and as a consequence recovers
from that person or another person any sum representing compensation for loss of base salary under this agreement, the Executive will repay to the Company any money it has paid to him as base salary in respect of the same period of absence.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
