	7.	REMUNERATION AND EXPENSES 

  

	7.1	The Company shall pay to the Executive a Salary at the rate per annum which has been approved by the remuneration committee of the Group or at such other rate as may from time to time be agreed between the Company and
the Executive and approved by the relevant and appropriate remuneration committee of the Group from time to time (the “Compensation Committee”). The Salary shall be converted into and paid in Sterling at the currency conversion rate
of the Company’s bank on the date any payment is due or at such other rate as may from time to time be agreed between the Company and the Executive. 

  

	7.2	The Salary shall be deemed to accrue evenly from day to day and shall be payable in arrears by equal monthly instalments on the last working day of each month into a bank account nominated by the Executive and shall be
inclusive of any fees and/or remuneration to which the Executive may be entitled as a director of the Company or any Group Company. 

  

	7.3	The Salary may be reviewed annually by the relevant and appropriate remuneration committee within the Group from time to time (the “Compensation Committee”). There is no obligation to award an increase
following a salary review. The Salary may be increased with effect from any such review date provided that such increases will not affect the other terms of this agreement.

Committee may award to the Executive such bonus amount as it may determine in its discretion. Objectives will be set in respect of periods of six months (the “Bonus Period”) and any bonus due in respect of any Bonus Period will be
paid no later than one month after the determination of any such bonus, which shall take place as soon as reasonably practicable, following the end of such Bonus Period (“Payment Date”). Where notice is given to terminate employment
or employment is terminated between the end of a Bonus Period and the Payment Date, the full amount of bonus shall be paid on or before the Payment Date. 


  
  

8

order to receive a bonus payment, save that: 

  

	 	7.5.1	in the event the Company serves notice to terminate the Appointment or the Executive serves notice for a Good Reason in circumstances other than under clause 15.1 or a Change of Control Termination, the Executive shall
be entitled to a pro rata bonus for the period up to the date of termination of the Appointment in respect of the Bonus Period in which such date falls calculated on the basis that up to the termination date the Company and/or the Executive have met
but not exceeded any relevant objectives; 

  

	 	7.5.2	in the event of a Change of Control Termination, the Executive shall be entitled to a bonus payment on termination of an amount calculated as if, at the date of termination of the Appointment, he would have been
employed for the whole of the Bonus Period in which such date falls and on the assumption that the Company and/or the Executive would have met, but not exceeded any relevant objectives; 


 

	 	7.5.3	in the event that following either party giving notice to terminate the Appointment, the Executive is still employed and not on Garden Leave at the end of (1) the Bonus Period in which such notice is given or
received, or (2) any subsequent Bonus Period, the Executive will receive the bonus in respect of such period on the applicable Payment Date and (3) if the Executive is still employed and not on Garden Leave at least three months into any
Bonus Period he will receive a pro-rata bonus in respect of such period of the applicable Payment Date; 

  

	 	7.5.4	in the event that, following the Executive giving notice to terminate the Appointment he is placed on Garden Leave, the Executive’s entitlement to a bonus shall be equivalent to what he would have received (if any)
had his employment been terminated on the date on which he was placed on Garden Leave and a payment in lieu of notice paid in accordance with either clause 15.6, 15.7.3 or 15.8.3 as applicable; 


 

	7.6	The Company shall reimburse the Executive promptly for all reasonable and authorised out of pocket expenses (including hotel and travelling expenses) incurred by the Executive in accordance with the Company’s
Travel and Expenses Policy (in force from time to time) in the discharge of his duties subject to the production of appropriate receipts or such other evidence as the Company may reasonably require as proof of such expenses and in accordance with
the Company’s rules and policies relating to expenses as may be in force from time to time. If the Executive is provided with a credit or charge card by the Company this must only be used for expenses which he incurs in performing the duties of
his Appointment. 

  

	7.7	In the event that: 

  

	 	7.7.1	the Executive terminates his employment with the Company or other relevant member of the Group for a Good Reason (as defined in this Agreement) in circumstances other than where the Company or relevant member of the
Group is entitled summarily to terminate the Executive’s employment under clause 15.1 of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	7.7.2	the Company or other relevant member of the Group terminates the Executive’s employment in circumstances other than where the Company or relevant member of the Group is entitled summarily to terminate the
Executive’s employment under clause 15.1 of this Agreement; or 


  
  

9 









	 	7.7.3	the Executive’s employment with the Company or other relevant member of the Group is terminated in circumstances where that termination constitutes a Change of Control Termination in circumstances other than where
the Company or relevant member of the Group is entitled summarily to terminate the Executive’s employment under clause 15.1 of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	7.7.4	the Executive’s employment with the Company or other relevant member of the Group terminates on or after 7 March 2015 for whatever reason, in respect of the First Instrument only; 


the Company will procure that, to the extent the Executive does not fall within the definition of Good Leaver (as defined in the Articles) he
shall in any event be determined to be a Good Leaver for the purposes of: 
  

	 	(a)	the Articles in respect of any shares in the Company or any member of the Group held by the Executive at the date of this Agreement or acquired by the Executive at any time at any time after the date of this Agreement,
in either case, pursuant to the Instruments; and 

  

	 	(b)	any options granted to the Executive in respect of shares in the Company or any member of the Group on or before the date of this Agreement pursuant to the Instruments. 


((a) and (b) together the “ Interests”) 
  

	7.8	In the event the Interests are exchanged for shares or options in a new holding company of the Group, the Company procures that the effect of clause 7.7 shall be replicated in respect of those shares or options.


  

	7.9	The Executive acknowledges that, even where he is determined to be a Good Leaver, he has agreed to receive a price which may be less than would ordinarily be received by Good Leavers by virtue of the provisions of
paragraph 2 of Schedule 2 of the Second Instrument or any similar provisions in any instrument replacing the Second Instrument. 

  

	7.10	Clauses 7.7 and 7.8 are not intended to and do not apply to the individual Option and Subscription Agreement dated 31 January 2014 (granting the Executive an option to acquire up to 2,968,872 D1 ordinary shares of
€0.000149 each in the capital of Midasplayer International Holding Company PLC) or any shares which are the subject of that agreement or which are “Linked Shares” (as such term is defined therein) for the purposes of that agreement.

Holding Company Limited) dated 6 December 2011, as amended by a letter dated 8 March 2014 (the ‘First Instrument’) and the Executive’s second Option and Subscription Agreement relating to D1 ordinary shares of EUR
0.000149 in Midasplayer International Holding Company PLC dated 31 January 2014 (the ‘Second Instrument’) which for the avoidance of doubt, is not the individual option and subscription agreement referred to in clause 7.10
above.

	9.	BENEFITS 

  

	9.1	Up until the Executive reaches the age of 65, but without prejudice to the Company’s right to change benefit provider at its discretion save only that the benefit entitlements enjoyed by the Executive should be no
less favourable to the individual than those benefits provided before the change in benefit provider, the Company shall contractually provide, subject to clause 9.3, the Executive with the following benefits, particulars of which may be obtained
from the Human Resources Manager:

	9.2	During any period in which the Executive is eligible to receive benefits under the Income Protection Scheme the Company’s obligations under this agreement shall be limited to paying to the Executive such sums as it
receives in respect of the Executive under the Income Protection Scheme. During any such period the Executive shall continue to be bound by all his obligations (other than to provide his services) under this agreement. 


 

	9.3	 The benefits referred to in this clause 9 are conditional on the relevant insurer accepting cover for the Executive at a premium the rate of which the
Company considers reasonable and accepting liability for any particular claim. In the event that the relevant insurer does not accept cover or liability in respect of the Executive at a premium the rate of which the Company considers reasonable or
any claim by the Executive in respect of any of the benefits, the Company shall have no obligation to provide any alternative benefit or cover in this regard provided that any premium previously payable in respect of the Executive shall in such




  
  

11 









	 	
circumstances be paid to the Executive. The provision of the benefits shall not restrict the Company’s ability to terminate the Appointment in accordance with clause 15.1. In the case of any
other termination, in particular due to Incapacity the Company shall prior to termination make good faith efforts to assist the Executive in remaining eligible to participate in the Income Protection Scheme, including for example considering keeping
the Executive on a shell contract on national minimum wage or otherwise so that the Executive is still classed as an employee for the purpose of the Income Protection Scheme. 


 

	10.	HOLIDAYS AND HOLIDAY PAY 

  

	10.1	The Company’s holiday year runs between 1 January and 31 December. In addition to the normal bank and public holidays applicable in England and Wales the Executive shall be entitled to 30 working days’
paid holiday during each holiday year to be taken at such time as the Supervisor may from time to time approve and paid at the rate of basic Salary. The Company may require the Executive to use up to four of days’ paid holiday to cover the
working days between Christmas and New Year, depending on the number required each year. One days’ holiday shall be used for the purposes of the Company’s Community and Charity paid leave day (“Holiday Entitlement”).

	10.2	Up to seven days’ Holidays Entitlement may be carried forward from one calendar year to the next, and no more, save with the written consent of the Supervisor. Any other Holiday Entitlement may be forfeited without
any right to payment in lieu. 

  

	10.3	In the holiday year in which the Executive’s Appointment commences or terminates the Executive shall be entitled to 2.5 days’ holiday for each completed month of service. 


 

	10.4	Upon termination of the Appointment the Executive shall, subject to clause 15.2 if appropriate, either be entitled to Salary in lieu of any outstanding Holiday Entitlement or be required to repay to the Company any
Salary received in respect of Holiday Entitlement taken in excess of his proportionate Holiday Entitlement and any sums repayable by the Executive may be deducted from any outstanding Salary or other payments due to the Executive. 


 

	10.5	The Company reserves the right to require the Executive to take any accrued but unused Holiday Entitlement during any period of notice given to terminate the Appointment or at any other time. 


 

	10.6	The provisions of this clause 10 shall replace regulations 15(1) to 15(4) inclusive of the Working Time Regulations 1998 which shall not apply to the Executive. 


 

	11.	SICKNESS AND ABSENCE 

  

	11.1	If the Executive is Incapacitated he shall as soon as possible notify the Company and inform it of the reason for his absence in accordance with such policy as in place from time to time.

from time to time. 

  

	11.3	Subject to compliance with the provisions of clauses 11.1 and 11.2 and subject to the Company’s right to terminate the Appointment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for any reason including, without
limitation Incapacity if the Executive is at any time Incapacitated, he shall be paid sick pay consisting of: 

  

	 	11.3.1	his Salary for up to 6 months’ absence in aggregate in any period of 12 months; 

  

	 	11.3.2	thereafter half his Salary for up to an additional 3 months’ absence in aggregate in any period of 12 months; 

  

	 	11.3.3	thereafter such remuneration (if any) as the Board shall in its absolute discretion allow. 

  

	11.4	Sick pay paid to the Executive under clause 11.3 shall be inclusive of any statutory sick pay to which the Executive may be entitled under the provisions of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992. For
statutory sick pay purposes the Executive’s qualifying days shall be his normal working days. 

  

	11.5	The Company shall be entitled to deduct from any sick pay paid under clause 11.3 or any other such remuneration as may be paid to the Executive any sickness or injury benefits otherwise paid to the Executive.


  

	11.6	The Executive agrees that at any time during the Appointment he will consent, if required by the Company, to a medical examination by a medical practitioner appointed by the Company at its expense and shall authorise
such medical practitioner after having provided the Executive with a copy of any report or results to disclose to and discuss with the Human Resources Manager in confidence the results of any such medical examination. 


 

	11.7	If the Executive shall at any time be Incapacitated during the Appointment for a total of 26 or more weeks in any 12 consecutive calendar months the Company may, provided it has made good faith attempts to procure

performance of his duties. 

  

	11.9	If the Executive is Incapacitated by the action of a third party in respect of which damages are or may be recoverable the Executive shall notify the Human Resources Manager of that fact and of any claim, compromise,
settlement or judgment awarded as soon as is reasonably practicable. The Executive shall include in any claim for damages against such third party a claim in respect of monies paid by the Company under this clause 11 and shall receive the sick pay
referred to clause 11.3 (other than the statutory sick pay element referred to at clause 11.4) as loans by the Company to the Executive (notwithstanding that as an interim measure income tax has been deducted from such payments as if they were
emoluments of employment). The Executive shall repay the net sum received by the Executive (after deduction of tax and costs) in respect of such loans when and to the extent that the Executive recovers compensation for loss of earnings from the
third party by action or otherwise. 


  
  

13

	12.2	The Executive shall not be restrained from using or disclosing any Confidential Information which: 

  

	 	12.2.1	forms part of his general skill and knowledge; or 

  

	 	12.2.2	he is authorised to use or disclose by the Board; or 

  

	 	12.2.3	has entered the public domain unless it enters the public domain as a result of an unauthorised disclosure by the Executive or anyone else employed or engaged by the Company or any Group Company; or 


 

	 	12.2.4	he is required to disclose by law; or 

  

	 	12.2.5	he is entitled to disclose under section 43A of the Employment Rights Act 1996 provided that the disclosure is made in an appropriate way to an appropriate person having regard to the provisions of that Act and clause
5.1.7. 

 provided that, in the case of any disclosure under sub-clauses 12.2.4 or
12.2.5 above, the Executive shall (to the extent permitted by the applicable laws) notify the Company in advance of the disclosure. 
  

	12.3	The Executive shall not make copies of any document, memoranda, correspondence (including emails), computer disk, CD-ROM, memory stick, video tape or any similar matter (including
for the avoidance of doubt in any electronic format) or remove any such items from the premises of the Company or of any Group Company other than in the proper performance of his duties under this agreement except with the written authority of the
Board which authority will apply in that instance only. 

  

	12.4	The Executive shall not make any public statement (whether written or oral) to the media or otherwise relating to the affairs of the Company or any Group Company save in the proper and lawful conduct of his duties and

	13.	PROTECTION OF THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS INTERESTS 

  

	13.1	In this Clause: 

 “Business Partner” means any Person who has entered into a
joint venture or material commercial agreement (save in respect of agreements for the supply of utilities) with the Company or any Group Company with whom the Executive had material dealings during the period of 12 months prior to the termination of
the Appointment; 
 “Person” means any person, firm, limited liability partnership, company, corporation, organisation or
other entity; 

  
  

14 








 “Platform Partner” means Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon, Tencent and Kakao and
any other platforms which distribute or make games available to customers; 
 “Restricted Business” means the creation,
generation, provision or distribution of online or mobile skill games and/or casual games and/or any other business in which: 
  

	 	(a)	the Company or any Group Company is involved at the date of termination of the Appointment or the start of any period of Garden Leave as applicable; 


 

	 	(b)	the Company or any Group Company was involved in at any time during the period of 12 months immediately prior to the date of termination or the start of any period of Garden Leave as applicable; 


 

	 	(c)	the Company or any Group Company is, to the knowledge of the Executive, preparing to be involved in at any time during the 12 month period immediately following the date of termination of the Appointment or the start of
any period of Garden Leave as applicable; 

 and with which the Executive was materially concerned or had management
responsibility for or had substantial Confidential Information about at any time in the 12 month period immediately prior to the date of the termination of Appointment or the start of any period of Garden Leave as applicable. 

“Restricted Employee” means any person who, at the date of the termination of the Appointment or the start of any period of
Garden Leave as applicable, was an employee, officer, agent, consultant or contractor to the Company or any Group Company whom the Executive managed or had material dealings with in the 12 months prior to the termination of the Appointment, who:

 (a) is likely to be in possession of Confidential Information belonging to the Company or any Group Company; or

support function; or 
 (c) who could materially damage the interests of the Company or any Group Company if (s)he ceased to be employed or
engaged by the Company or Group Company. 
 This restriction shall not include any employee employed in an administrative, clerical, manual
or secretarial capacity. 
 “Restricted Supplier” means any person who had contracted with or been engaged by (or was
negotiating to contract with or be engaged by) the Company or any Group Company to design, support, supply or deliver products, goods, materials or services which are material to the business of the Company or any Group Company and whom the
Executive had material personal contact with or management responsibility for in the course of the Appointment during the 12 month period immediately prior to the date of the termination of the Appointment. 

 

	13.2	 The Executive acknowledges that following termination of the Appointment he will be in a position to compete unfairly with the Company and other
members of the Group as a result of the Confidential Information, trade secrets and knowledge about the business, operations, customers, employees and trade connections of the Company and any Group Company which he has acquired or will acquire and
through the connections that he has developed and will 



  
  

15 









	 	
develop during the Appointment. The Executive therefore agrees to enter into the restrictions in this clause 13 for the purpose of protecting the legitimate business interests of the Company and
each Group Company and in particular the Confidential Information, goodwill and the stable trained workforce of the Company and each Group Company. 

  

	13.3	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment, endeavour to entice away from the Company or any Group Company any Restricted Employee. 


 

	13.4	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment, employ or engage or offer employment to any Restricted Employee. 


 

	13.5	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment and in such a way as to affect adversely the business of the Company, seek to contract with or engage any Restricted Supplier
for any Restricted Business. 

  

	13.6	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment directly or indirectly, knowingly or recklessly do or say anything which is or is calculated to be prejudicial to the interests
of the Company or any Group Company or its or their businesses or which results or may result in the discontinuance of any contract or arrangement of benefit to the Company or any Group Company. 


 

	13.7	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment directly or indirectly either on his own account or for any Person in competition with any Restricted Business, induce, solicit
or entice, or try to induce, solicit or entice any Business Partner to terminate its arrangements with the Company or any Group Company or to seek to vary those arrangements, irrespective of where any such action would be in breach of the Business
Partner’s contractual arrangements with the Company or any Group Company. 

  

	13.8	The Executive will not, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment directly or indirectly either or his own account or for any Person deal with any Business Partner in competition with any
Restricted Business, provided that this restriction shall not prevent the Executive from joining any Business Partner on an employed or self employed basis in a role that is not involved in any Restricted Business. 


 

	13.9	The Executive will not directly or indirectly, for a period of 12 months after the termination of the Appointment, set up, carry on, be employed in, be engaged in, be associated with or concerned in any capacity in any
business concern that is in competition with or is preparing to compete with any Restricted Business. By way of non-exhaustive illustration (and without prejudice to the generality of this clause 13, the sites and services provided by Zynga, Wooga,
Electronic Arts, Team Lava, Popcap, Spil, Worldwinner, Ubisoft, Rovio, Supercell, Gameloft, Bigpoint or any other online or mobile skill game or casual game company (including their successors), as at the date of this agreement is in competition
with the Restricted Business. 

  

	13.10	If, at any time during the Executive’s employment, one or more Restricted Employees have left their employment, appointment or engagement with the Company or any Group Company to perform Restricted Business for a
business concern which is, or intends to be, in competition with any Restricted Business, the Executive will not at any time during the 12 months following the last date on which any of those Restricted Persons were employed or engaged by the
Company, be employed or engaged in any way with that business concern under which the Executive will perform Restricted Business on the behalf of that business concern. 


  
  

16 









	13.11	This clause 13 shall not restrain the Executive from: 

  

	 	13.11.1	being engaged or concerned in any business concern in so far as the Executive’s duties or work shall relate solely to services or activities of a kind with which the Executive was not concerned during the period of
12 months ending on the date of the termination of the Appointment; or 

  

	 	13.11.2	making or holding an Investment. 

  

	13.12	The obligations imposed on the Executive by this clause 13 extend to him acting not only on his own account but also on behalf of any other firm, company or other person which is intended or about to be competitive with
the Restricted Business or in relation to the provision of any goods or services similar to or competitive with those sold or provided by the Company and shall apply whether he acts directly or indirectly. 


 

	13.13	In the event that the Executive receives an offer of employment or request to provide services either during the Appointment or during the currency of the restrictive periods set out in this clause 13, the Executive
shall (and the Company may) provide immediately to such person, company or other entity making such an offer or request a full and accurate copy of this clause 13. 


 

	13.14	If the Executive’s employment is transferred to any firm, company, person or entity other than a Group Company (the “New Employer”) pursuant to the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment)
Regulations 2006, the Executive will, if required, enter into an agreement with the New Employer containing post-termination restrictions corresponding to those restrictions in this clause 13, protecting the Confidential Information, trade secrets
and business connections of the New Employer. 

  

	13.15	The restrictions contained in this clause 13 are considered by the parties to be reasonable in all the circumstances. Each sub-clause and part of such sub-clause constitutes entirely separate and independent
restrictions. If any of the restrictions contained in the above clause or sub-clauses or part of sub-clauses is held not to be valid as going beyond what is reasonable for the protection of the interests of the Company or any Group Company, but
would be adjudged reasonable if part or parts of the wording thereof were deleted, the said restriction shall apply with such words deleted to the extent so adjudged as may be necessary to make it enforceable. 


 

	13.16	In the event that the Company exercises its rights under clause 16.1 of this agreement or if the Executive is required to work during some or all of their notice period, then any such period worked during the notice
period or on Garden Leave shall be offset against and therefore reduce the periods for which the periods in this clause 13 shall apply. 

  

	14.	INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS 

  

	14.1	The parties acknowledge that the Executive may create Inventions (alone or jointly) in the course of his employment with the Company and that the Executive has a special obligation to further the interests of the
Company in relation to such Inventions. The Executive shall, promptly following creation, disclose to the Company all such Inventions and works embodying Company Intellectual Property. 


 

	14.2	The Executive acknowledges that (except to the extent prohibited by or ineffective in law) all Company Intellectual Property and materials embodying them shall automatically belong to the Company as from creation for
the full term of those rights and (except to the extent prohibited by or ineffective in law), the Executive hereby assigns, by way of present and future assignment, any and all right, title and interest therein to the Company. 


  
  

17 









	14.3	To the extent that any Company Intellectual Property does not vest in the Company automatically pursuant to clause 14.2 (and except to the extent prohibited by or ineffective in law), the Executive holds such property
on trust for the Company and hereby grants to the Company an exclusive, royalty free licence to use such property in its discretion until such Company Intellectual Property fully vests in the Company. 


 

	14.4	To the extent that any Inventions created by the Executive (whether alone or jointly) at any time during the course of his employment are prohibited by or prevented in law from automatically vesting with the Company
pursuant to clause 14.2, the Executive shall, immediately upon creation of such rights, grant the Company a right of first refusal, in writing, to acquire them on arm’s length terms to be agreed between the parties. If the parties cannot agree
on such terms within 30 days of the Company receiving the offer, the Company in consultation with the Executive shall have a further period of 14 days in which to refer the dispute to an expert who shall be appointed by the President of the
Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. The expert’s decision in relation to such commercial terms shall be final and binding on the parties and the costs of the expert shall be borne by the company. 


 

	14.5	The Executive agrees: 

  

	 	14.5.1	to execute all such documents, both during and after the Appointment, as the Company may reasonably require to vest in the Company all right, title and interest in the Company Intellectual Property pursuant to this
agreement at the reasonable expense of the Company; 

  

	 	14.5.2	to provide all such information and assistance and do all such further things as the Company may reasonably require, at the reasonable expense of the Company, to enable it to protect, maintain and exploit the Company
Intellectual Property to the best advantage, including (without limitation), at the Company’s request, assisting the Company with any application for the protection of Inventions throughout the world; 


 

	 	14.5.3	to assist the Company as it may reasonably require in applying for the registration of any registrable Company Intellectual Property, to enable it to enforce the Company Intellectual Property against third parties and
to defend claims for infringement of third party Intellectual Property Rights, all at the reasonable expense of the Company; 

  

	 	14.5.4	not to apply for the registration of any Company Intellectual Property in the United Kingdom or any other part of the world without the prior written consent of the Company; and 


 

	 	14.5.5	to keep confidential all Company Intellectual Property unless the Company has consented in writing to its disclosure by the Executive. 


 

	14.6	As against the Company, its successors and assigns and any licensee of any of the foregoing, the Executive hereby waives all of his present and future moral rights which arise under the Copyright Designs and
Patents Act 1988 and all similar rights in other jurisdictions relating to the Company Intellectual Property. 


  
  

18 









	14.7	The Executive acknowledges that, except as provided by law, no further remuneration or compensation, other than that provided for in this agreement, is or may become due to the Executive in respect of his compliance
with this clause. This clause is without prejudice to the Executive’s rights under the Patents Act 1977. 

  

	14.8	The Executive irrevocably appoints the Company as the Executive’s attorney in the Executive’s name to sign, execute, do or deliver on the Executive’s behalf any deed, document or other instrument and to
use the Executive’s name for the purpose of giving full effect to this clause. 

  

	14.9	Rights and obligations under this agreement shall continue in force after termination of this agreement in respect of any Company Intellectual Property. 


 

	15.	TERMINATION 

  

	15.1	The Appointment may be terminated without notice or pay in lieu of notice with immediate effect by the Company if at any time the Executive: 


 

	 	15.1.1	shall have committed any serious breach or repeated or continued (after written warning allowing, if remediable, time to remedy) any other breach of the Executive’s obligations under this agreement which cannot be
remedied within a reasonable time; 

  

	 	15.1.2	is guilty of serious misconduct or is convicted of any criminal offence involving dishonesty or where a custodial penalty is imposed; 


 

	 	15.1.3	is guilty of any fraud or dishonesty or acts in any manner which in the reasonable opinion of the Board brings or is likely to bring the Executive or the Company or any Group Company into serious disrepute or is

any Group Company from time to time. 


  
  

19 








 Any delay by the Company in exercising such right of termination shall not constitute a waiver of
it. 
  

	15.2	In the event of termination under clause 15.1 above the Company shall not be obliged to make any further payment to the Executive except such Salary as shall have accrued at the date of termination and in respect of
accrued but untaken Holiday Entitlement. 

  

	15.3	Upon notice of termination of the Appointment being given, or upon termination of the Appointment, or, at the start of a period of Garden Leave, or at any time upon request by the Company in writing, the Executive
shall: 

  

	 	15.3.1	at the request of the Company resign from all (if any) offices held by him in the Company or any Group Company and all (if any) trusteeships held by him of any pension scheme or any trust established or subscribed to/by
the Company and any Group Company and in the event of his failure to do so the Company is hereby irrevocably authorised to appoint some person in his name and on his behalf to sign and execute all documents and do all things necessary to constitute
and give effect to such resignation; 

  

	 	15.3.2	immediately return to the Company all correspondence (including emails), documents, papers, memoranda, notes, records such as may be contained in magnetic media or other forms of computer storage, videos, tapes (whether
or not prepared or produced by him) and any copies thereof charge and credit cards and all other property (including any car) belonging to the Company which may be in the Executive’s possession or under his control provided that the Executive
shall not be obliged to return during any period of Garden Leave any property provided to him as a contractual benefit; 

  

	 	15.3.3	if requested send to the Company Secretary a signed statement confirming that he has complied with sub-clause 15.3.2. 


 

	15.4	The Executive shall not at any time after the termination of the Appointment incorrectly represent himself as being connected with or interested in the Business of the Company or the Group on an ongoing basis.


  

	15.5	At its absolute discretion the Company may at any time (including without limitation after notice of termination shall have been given by either party) lawfully terminate this agreement with immediate effect by
notifying the Executive in writing that the Company is exercising its right under this clause 15.5 and that it has made or will make a payment in lieu of notice (“Payment in Lieu”). 


 

	15.6	If the Executive serves notice of termination voluntarily except in circumstances where clause 15.1 applies or in the event of a Change of Control Termination: 


 

	 	15.6.1	any Payment in Lieu shall be calculated as an amount equal to the Executive’s Salary only, for the then unexpired notice period; and 


 

	 	15.6.2	the Executive shall not be entitled to receive any accrued or pro rata bonus, or commission payment in relation to the current Bonus Period or any payments that might otherwise have been due had the Executive worked for
the Company during the unexpired notice period, and whether or not the Executive is on Garden Leave. 


  
  

20 









	15.7	If the Company serves notice of termination (including pursuant to clause 11.7) or the Executive serves notice to terminate his employment for a Good Reason (whether such termination has immediate effect or otherwise)
except in circumstances where clauses 15.1 applies or in the event of a Change of Control Termination, any Payment in Lieu shall be calculated as: 

  

	 	15.7.1	an amount equal to the Executive’s Salary only for the then unexpired period of notice; 

  

	 	15.7.2	such further amount as is equal to the fair value to the Executive of any other benefits to which the Executive is contractually entitled under the terms of this agreement during the then unexpired period of notice (or
at the Executive’s option so far as is contractually feasible and provided any additional cost to the Company is no more than the fair value to the Executive, the continuation of such benefits for the then unexpired period of notice); and


  

	 	15.7.3	in accordance with clause 7.5.1 a pro rata bonus for the Bonus Period up to the date of termination of the Appointment. 

  

	15.8	In the event of a Change of Control Termination, any Payment in Lieu shall be calculated as 

  

	 	15.8.1	an amount equal to the Executive’s Salary only for the then unexpired period of notice; 

  

	 	15.8.2	such further amount as is equal to the fair value to the Executive of any other benefits to which the Executive is contractually entitled under the terms of this agreement during the then unexpired period of notice (or
at the Executive’s option so far as is contractually feasible and provided any additional cost to the Company is no more than the fair value to the Executive, the continuation of such benefits for the then unexpired period of notice); and


  

	 	15.8.3	in accordance with clause 7.5.2 a bonus payment of an amount calculated as if, at the date of termination of the Appointment, he would have been employed at the end of the current Bonus Period and Payment Date in
respect of such Bonus Period and on the assumption that the Company and/or the Executive would have met, but not exceeded any relevant objectives. 

  

	15.9	For the avoidance of doubt, the Payment in Lieu shall not include any element in relation to any payment in respect of any holiday entitlement that would have accrued had the Executive worked for the Company during the
notice period. The Executive shall have no right to receive a Payment in Lieu unless the Company has exercised its discretion in clause 15.5. 

  

	15.10	Notwithstanding clause 15.5 the Executive shall not be entitled to any Payment in Lieu if the Company would otherwise have been entitled to terminate the Appointment without notice in accordance with clause 15.1 and in
that case the Company shall also be entitled to recover from the Executive any sums received (net of tax) in respect of any Payment in Lieu already made. 

  

	15.11	The Payment in Lieu shall be subject to such deductions as required by law including the deduction at source of income tax and employee’s national insurance contributions. 


  
  

21 









	15.12	The Executive expressly agrees that the Company may make such deductions from Salary or other payments due on the termination of or during the Appointment as may be necessary to reimburse the Company for sums paid out
by the Company to or on behalf of the Executive but which are recoverable by it including but not limited to loans, advances, relocation expenses, excess holiday payments and any outstanding payments in relation to the company car. Before making any
such deduction the Company shall inform the Executive of the nature of any such deduction and give the Executive a reasonable opportunity to challenge it. 

  

	16.	GARDEN LEAVE 

  

	16.1	Following notice to terminate (whether in the event of a Change of Control or otherwise) the Appointment being given by the Company or the Executive or if the Executive purports to terminate the Appointment in breach of
contract the Company may by written notice require the Executive (for a maximum period of six months) not to perform any services (or to perform only specified services) for the Company or for any Group Company for all or part of the applicable
notice period required under clause 3. 

  

	16.2	During any period of Garden Leave the Executive shall:
