(ii)Each Seller shall, and shall procure that each of its Share Sellers and Business Sellers shall, take such action as the Purchaser may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, compromise, defend or mitigate any claim which constitutes or may constitute an Assumed Liability subject to that Seller and each of its Share Sellers and Business Sellers being indemnified and secured to their reasonable satisfaction by the Purchaser against all Liabilities which may thereby be incurred. In connection therewith, that Seller shall make or procure to be made available to the Purchaser or its duly authorised agents on reasonable notice during normal business hours all relevant books of account, records and correspondence relating to its Target Group Businesses which have been retained by that Sellers Group (and shall permit the Purchaser to take copies thereof at its expense) for the purposes of enabling the Purchaser to ascertain or extract any information relevant to the claim.  8.2.2Excluded Liabilities  (i)If the Purchaser becomes aware after Closing of any claim by a third party which constitutes or may constitute an Excluded Liability or relates to an Excluded Liability or any investigations related thereto, regardless of whether the Purchaser believes that such claim would be made against a member of the Purchasers Group or a member of a Sellers Group, the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable:  (a)give written notice thereof to the relevant Seller, setting out such information as is available to the Purchaser as is reasonably necessary to enable that Seller to assess the merits of the potential claim;  (b)take all appropriate actions to preserve evidence; and  (c)provide the relevant Seller with periodic updates on the status upon request and shall not admit, compromise, settle, discharge or otherwise deal with such claim without the prior written agreement of that Seller (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  (ii)The Purchaser shall take such action as the relevant Seller may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, compromise, defend or mitigate any claim which constitutes or may constitute an Excluded Liability subject to the Purchaser being indemnified and secured to its reasonable satisfaction by the relevant Seller against all Liabilities which may thereby be incurred.  (iii)In addition, where any such claim or investigation involves a Governmental Entity, the Purchaser shall, subject to Applicable Law, the requirements of any relevant Governmental Entity and the relevant Seller providing an appropriate confidentiality undertaking in favour of  75


the Purchasers Group, provide to that Seller, at least five Business Days in advance (or, where not possible, as soon as reasonably possible), any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals they or their agents make or submit to a Governmental Entity. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties agree, subject to Applicable Law and the requirements of the relevant Governmental Entity and the Seller providing an appropriate confidentiality undertaking in favour of the Purchasers Group to:  (a)give that Seller reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any Governmental Entity;  (b)give that Seller an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings;  (c)to the extent practicable, give that Seller reasonable advance notice of all substantive oral communications with any Governmental Entity;  (d)if any Governmental Entity initiates a substantive oral communication, promptly notify that Seller of the substance of such communication;  (e)provide that Seller with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon all substantive written communications (including any substantive correspondence, analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals) that the Purchaser or its agents intend to make or submit to a Governmental Entity in connection with such claim;  (f)provide that Seller with copies of all substantive written communications to or from any Governmental Entity; and  (g)not advance arguments with the Governmental Entity without prior agreement of that Seller that would reasonably be likely to have a significant adverse impact on the Seller,  provided however, that the Purchaser shall not be required to comply with paragraph (b) above to the extent that the Governmental Entity objects to the participation of a party, or with paragraph (e) or (f) above to the extent that such disclosure may raise regulatory concerns (in which case, the disclosure may be made on an outside counsel basis).  (iv)Other than in respect of any claim to the extent it relates to an IP Liability, a Commercial Practices Liability, or a Governmental Liability (other than in respect of any Liability arising solely by virtue of a breach of Contract with any Governmental Entity which breach does not also constitute a breach of Applicable Law), the relevant Seller shall be  76


entitled at its own expense and in its absolute discretion, by notice in writing to the Purchaser, to take such action as it shall deem necessary to avoid, dispute, deny, defend, resist, appeal, compromise or contest any such claim (including making counterclaims or other claims against third parties) in the name of and on behalf of the Purchaser or other member of the Purchasers Group concerned and to have the conduct of any related proceedings, negotiations or appeals. In taking action on behalf of any member of the Purchasers Group as permitted by this Clause 8.2, the relevant Seller shall, in good faith, take into account and have due regard to any reputational matters or issues arising out of the claim for any member of the Purchasers Group or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents which are brought to its attention by the Purchaser or a member of the Purchasers Group.  (v)The Purchaser shall make or procure to be made available to the relevant Seller or its duly authorised agents on reasonable notice during normal business hours full and free access to all relevant books of account, records and correspondence relating to its Target Group which are in the possession of the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group (and shall permit the relevant Seller to take copies thereof) for the purposes of enabling that Seller to ascertain or extract any information relevant to the claim.  (vi)The Purchaser shall, and shall procure that each other member of the Purchasers Group shall, on reasonable notice from the relevant Seller, give such assistance to that Seller as it may reasonably require in relation to the claim including providing the relevant Seller or any member of that Sellers Group and its representative and advisers with access to and assistance from directors, officers, managers, employees, advisers, agents or consultants of the Purchaser and/or of each other member of the Purchasers Group (collectively, the Relevant Persons) and the Purchaser will use its reasonable endeavours to procure that such Relevant Persons comply with any reasonable requests from that Seller and generally co-operate with and assist that Seller and other members of that Sellers Group.  (vii)When seeking assistance under Clauses 8.2.2(v) and 8.2.2(vi), the relevant Seller, or any other relevant member of that Sellers Group, shall use reasonable endeavours to minimise interference with the Purchaser and the Purchasers Groups conduct of the relevant business or the performance by the Relevant Persons of their employment duties.  8.3Release of Guarantees  8.3.1The Purchaser shall use reasonable endeavours to procure as soon as reasonably practicable after Closing, the release of each Seller or any member of that Sellers Group from any securities, guarantees or indemnities given by or binding upon that Seller or any member of that Sellers Group in respect of any  77


Assumed Liabilities or in connection with a liability of any of the relevant Target Group Companies (other than an Excluded Liability). Pending such release, the Purchaser shall indemnify that Seller and any member of that Sellers Group against all amounts paid by any of them (acting reasonably) pursuant to any such securities, guarantees or indemnities in respect of such Assumed Liabilities or such liability of the relevant Target Group Companies (other than an Excluded Liability).  8.3.2Each Seller shall use reasonable endeavours to procure by Closing or, to the extent not done by Closing, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the release of its Target Group Companies from any securities, guarantees or indemnities given by or binding upon those Target Group Companies in respect of any liability of that Seller or any member of that Sellers Group (other than those Target Group Companies).  Pending such release, that Seller shall pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to the sum that would have been payable to the Target Group Companies had that Seller indemnified the relevant Target Group Companies against all amounts paid by any of them (acting reasonably) pursuant to any such securities, guarantees or indemnities in respect of such liability of that Seller which arises after Closing.  8.4Transferred Accounts Payable  If at any time after Closing, a Seller or any of its Affiliates pays any monies in respect of any Transferred Accounts Payable, then the Purchaser shall pay or procure payment to that Seller (for the relevant Business Seller), as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid, plus any Taxation suffered or incurred by that Sellers Group which would not have arisen but for the payment and receipt of such monies.  8.5Transferred Accounts Receivable  If at any time after Closing, a Business Seller receives any monies in respect of any Transferred Accounts Receivables, then that Business Seller shall pay or procure payment to the Purchaser, as soon as reasonably practicable the amount recovered, less any Taxation suffered or incurred by the relevant Sellers Group which would not have arisen but for the receipt and payment of such monies.  8.6Intra-Group Trading Balances  Any Intra-Group Trade Payables, any Intra-Group Trade Receivables and any Transferred Accounts Payables and Transferred Accounts Receivables, in each case, between a member of the Sellers Group (other than a Target Group Company) and a Business Seller of that Sellers Group, shall be settled after Closing in the ordinary course of business and, in any event, within 60 days of Closing.  8.7Wrong Pockets Obligations  8.7.1Except as provided in Schedule 2, Schedule 4, Schedule 6, Schedule 7, or Schedule 8, if any property, right or asset forming part of a Target Group (other than any property, right or asset expressly excluded from the sale under this  78


Agreement) has not and should have been transferred to the Purchaser, or to another member of the Purchasers Group, pursuant to this Agreement, the relevant Seller shall procure that such property, right or asset (and any related liability which is an Assumed Liability) is transferred to the Purchaser (or another member of the Purchasers Group as the Purchaser may nominate reasonably acceptable to the Seller) as soon as practicable and at no cost to the Purchaser.  8.7.2If, following Closing, any property, right or asset not forming part of a Target Group (other than any property, right or asset expressly included in the sale under this Agreement) is found to have and should not have been transferred to the Purchaser or another member of the Purchasers Group pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser shall transfer (or procure the transfer of) such property, right or asset as soon as practicable to the transferor or another member of the relevant Sellers Group nominated by the relevant Seller reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser at no cost to the Seller.  8.8Covenant not to sue  8.8.1Each Seller hereby undertakes not to enforce any Intellectual Property Rights against the Purchaser or its Affiliates which qualify to be transferred pursuant to Clause 8.7.1 in relation to the period from Closing to the completion of the transfer under that Clause.  8.8.2The Purchaser hereby undertakes not to enforce any Intellectual Property Rights against a Seller or its Affiliates which qualify to be transferred pursuant to Clause 8.7.2 in relation to the period from Closing to the completion of the transfer under that Clause.  8.9The Purchasers Continuing Obligations  8.9.1Except as provided in the GlaxoSmithKline Seller Intellectual Property Trademark Licence, or if the Purchaser is unable to obtain the necessary third party consent to do so in relation to a Joint Venture Entity, the Purchaser shall procure that as soon as practicable after Closing, each of the Target Group Companies and Joint Venture Entities shall change its name so that it does not contain the Seller Marks or any name which is likely to be confused with the same and shall provide the relevant Seller with appropriate evidence of such change of name.  8.9.2Except as provided in the Ancillary Agreements, the Purchaser shall not, and shall procure that no member of the Purchasers Group shall, after Closing, use the Seller Marks or any confusingly similar name or mark, any extensions thereof or developments thereto in any business which competes with the Sellers business, or any other business of a Seller or any member of a Sellers Group in which the Seller Marks are used for a minimum period of five years following Closing and thereafter for so long as any member of a Sellers Group continues to retain an interest in the name.  79

The Purchaser shall provide such financial reporting in respect of the calendar month in which Closing occurs to each Seller within six Business Days of the last day of the relevant month.  8.10The Sellers Continuing Obligations  For a period of ten years from Closing, each Seller shall make or procure to be made available to the Purchaser or their duly authorised agents on reasonable notice during normal business hours:  8.10.1all relevant books, accounts, other records and correspondence relating to that Sellers Contributed Business which have been retained by that Sellers Group (and shall permit the Purchaser to take copies thereof); and  8.10.2reasonable access to any employees of that Sellers Group who have knowledge relating to products of the relevant Sellers Contributed Business (including any inventor of such products) for the purposes of the defence, prosecution or enforcement of any Target Group Intellectual Property Rights, or as required by law or a Governmental Entity, provided that the Purchaser shall promptly reimburse the relevant Seller for expenses reasonably incurred by the Seller in relation to providing such access if it exceed 25 man hours in aggregate per annum.  8.11Ancillary Agreements  If any of the Seller Intellectual Property Licence Agreement, the Purchaser Trademark Licence Agreement or the Seller Trademark Licence Agreement have not been entered into at Closing, the provisions of the licences in the Agreed Terms shall be binding on the relevant Seller and the Purchaser until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the relevant licence is entered into; or, if applicable, (ii) the date on which the relevant licence expires or terminates (if applicable) in accordance with its Agreed Terms.  8.12Transitional Services Agreement  In respect of each Seller, if the Transitional Services Agreement has not been entered into at Closing, the provision of the heads of terms in the Agreed Terms shall be binding on that Seller and the Purchaser until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the Transitional Services Agreement is entered into; or (ii) the date on which that Seller no longer provides such transitional services to the Purchaser.  80

Such references are given for convenience only and, shall not limit the effect of any of the disclosures, all of which are made against the Sellers Warranties as a whole.  9.3The Purchasers Warranties  The Purchaser warrants to each Seller that the statements set out in Schedule 14 are true and accurate as of the date of this Agreement.  10.LIMITATION OF LIABILITY  10.1Application  10.1.1In respect of the Tax Indemnity, the provisions of this Clause 10 shall operate to limit the liability of a Seller only in so far as any provision in this Clause 10 is expressed to be applicable to the Tax Indemnity, and the provisions of the Tax Indemnity shall further operate to limit the liability of the Sellers in respect of any claims thereunder.  82


10.1.2References to the Sellers Warranties in Clauses 10.2 to 10.5 (inclusive), 10.7, 10.8 and 10.10 shall not include the Tax Warranties and the provisions of clauses 3 and 9 of the Tax Indemnity shall operate to limit the liability of the Sellers and to govern the claims procedure in respect of any claim under the Tax Warranties in respect of a liability for Tax as if such claim had been a claim in respect of a Tax Liability (as defined in the Tax Indemnity) under the Tax Indemnity.  10.2Time Limitation for Claims  No Seller shall be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty, any Tax Warranty or under the Tax Indemnity in respect of any claim unless a notice of the claim is given by the Purchaser to such Seller specifying the matters set out in Clause 11.2:  10.2.1in the case of a claim under any of paragraphs 1, 2.1, 2.2.1, 2.2.3 or 2.5 of Schedule 13, within the applicable statutory limitation period;  10.2.2in respect of claims under the Tax Warranties or the Tax Indemnity, before the date falling six months after the expiry of the period specified by statute during which an assessment of the relevant liability to Tax may be issued by the relevant Tax Authority; and  10.2.3in the case of any other claim, before the date falling two years following Closing.  10.3Minimum Claims  10.3.1No Seller shall be liable under:  (i)this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty in respect of any individual claim (or a series of claims arising from similar or identical facts or circumstances) where the liability agreed or determined (disregarding the provisions of this Clause 10.3) in respect of any such claim or series of claims does not exceed, in the case of Novartis, US$10.95 million, or, in the case of GlaxoSmithKline, US$19.05 million; or  (ii)this Agreement for breach of any Tax Warranty or under the Tax Indemnity in respect of any individual claim (or a series of claims arising from similar or identical facts or circumstances) where the liability agreed or determined (disregarding the provisions of this Clause 10.3) in respect of any such claim or series of claims does not exceed US$1 million.  10.3.2Where the liability agreed or determined in respect of any such claim or series of claims exceeds, in the case of claims falling within Clause 10.3.1(i), US$10.95 million (in the case of Novartis) or US$19.05 million (in the case of GlaxoSmithKline) or, in the case of claims falling within Clause 10.3.1(ii),  83


US$1 million, the liability of the relevant Seller shall be for the whole amount of such claim(s) and not just the excess.  10.4Aggregate Minimum Claims  10.4.1No Seller shall be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty in respect of any claim unless the aggregate amount of all claims for which such Seller would otherwise be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty (disregarding the provisions of this Clause 10.4) exceeds, in the case of Novartis, US$109.5 million, or, in the case of GlaxoSmithKline, US$190.5 million,in which case the relevant Seller shall be liable for the aggregate amount of all claims as agreed or determined and not just the excess.  10.4.2Where the liability agreed or determined in respect of all claims exceeds US$109.5 million (in the case of Novartis) or US$190.5 million (in the case of GlaxoSmithKline) such Seller shall be liable for the aggregate amount of all claims as agreed or determined and not just the excess.  10.4.3For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser may give notice of any single claim in accordance with and for the purposes of Clause 10.2, irrespective of whether, at the time the notice is given, the amount set out in Clause 10.4.2 has been exceeded.  10.5Maximum Liability  The aggregate liability of a Seller in respect of:  10.5.1any breaches of the Sellers Warranties (other than the Sellers Warranties contained in paragraphs 1, 2.1, 2.2.1, 2.2.3 or 2.5 of Schedule 13) shall not exceed an amount equal to, in the case of Novartis, US$3.285 billion, or, in the case of GlaxoSmithKline, US$5.715 billion; and  10.5.2any breaches of such Sellers Warranties contained in paragraphs 1, 2.1, 2.2.1, 2.2.3 or 2.5 of Schedule 13 shall not exceed, in the case of Novartis, US$10.95 billion, or, in the case of GlaxoSmithKline, US$19.05 billion.  10.6Contingent Liabilities  No Seller shall be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any such Sellers Warranties in respect of which the liability is contingent, unless and until such contingent liability becomes an actual liability and is due and payable (but the Purchaser has the right under Clause 11.1 to give notice of such claim before such time).  For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that the liability may not have become an actual liability by the relevant date provided in Clause 10.2 shall not exonerate such Seller in respect of any claim properly notified before that date.  84


10.7Provisions  No Seller shall be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document in either case in respect of any claim for breach of any Sellers Warranty in respect of any claim if and to the extent that any allowance, provision or reserve has been properly made in the Closing Statement applicable to that Seller for the matter giving rise to the claim and such Seller can demonstrate that the allowance, provision or reserve so made was in respect of such matter.  10.8Matters Arising Subsequent to this Agreement  Subject to Clause 8.1.2, no Seller shall be liable under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document in either case in respect of any claim for breach of any Sellers Warranty in respect of any matter, act, omission or circumstance (or any combination thereof), to the extent that the same would not have occurred but for:  10.8.1Agreed matters  any matter or thing done or omitted to be done by such Seller or any member of such Sellers Group before Closing pursuant to and in compliance with this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document or otherwise at the request in writing of the Purchaser; or  10.8.2Changes in legislation  the passing of, or any change in, after the Closing Date, any Applicable Law or administrative practice of any government, governmental department, agency or regulatory body having the force of the law including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) any increase in the rates of Taxation or any imposition of Taxation or any withdrawal of relief from Taxation not in force at the Closing Date.  10.9Insurance  Without prejudice to Clause 13, any Sellers Liability under this Agreement for breach of any Sellers Warranty shall be reduced by an amount equal to any loss or damage to which such claim related which has actually been recovered under a policy of insurance held by the Purchaser or a Target Group Company (after deducting any reasonable costs incurred in making such recovery including the amount of any excess or deductible).  10.10Purchasers Right to Recover  If any Seller has paid an amount in discharge of any claim under this Agreement for breach of any Sellers Warranty and subsequently the Purchaser recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, insurance or otherwise) from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates the Purchaser (in whole or in part) in respect of the loss or liability which is the subject matter of the claim, the Purchaser shall pay to such Seller as soon as practicable after receipt an amount equal to (i) the sum recovered from the  85


third party less any costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery and any Tax on any amounts recovered (or Tax that would have been payable on such amounts but for the availability of any Tax relief), or if less (ii) the amount previously paid by such Seller to the Purchaser. Any payment made by the Purchaser to such Seller under this Clause shall be made or procured by way of further adjustment of the Purchase Consideration.  10.11No Double Recovery and no Double Counting  A party shall be entitled to make more than one claim under this Agreement arising out of the same subject matter, fact, event or circumstance but shall not be entitled to recover under this Agreement or any relevant Local Transfer Document or the Tax Indemnity or otherwise more than once in respect of the same Losses suffered or amount for which the party is otherwise entitled to claim (or part of such Losses or amount), regardless of whether more than one claim arises in respect of it. No amount (including any relief) (or part of any amount) shall be taken into account, set off or credited more than once under this Agreement or any relevant Local Transfer Document or the Tax Indemnity or otherwise, with the intent that there will be no double counting under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document or the Tax Indemnity or otherwise.  10.12Fraud  None of the limitations contained in this Clause 10 shall apply to any claim to the extent that such claim arises or is increased as the consequence of, or which is delayed as a result of, fraud by any director or officer of any member of a Sellers Group.  11.CLAIMS  11.1Notification of Potential Claims  Without prejudice to the obligations of the Purchaser under Clause 11.2, if the Purchaser becomes aware of any fact, matter or circumstance that may give rise to a claim against any Seller under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty other than a Tax Warranty (ignoring for these purposes the application of Clause 11.2 or 11.3), the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give a notice in writing to that Seller of such facts, matters or circumstances as are then available regarding the potential claim. Failure to give notice within such period shall not affect the rights of the Purchaser to make a relevant claim under this Agreement or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty, except that the failure shall be taken into account in determining the liability of that Seller for such claim to the extent that Seller establishes that the amount of it is increased, or is not reduced, as a result of such failure.  11.2Notification of Claims under this Agreement  Notices of claims under this Agreement or any relevant Local Transfer Document for breach of any Sellers Warranty (other than a Tax Warranty) shall be given by the Purchaser to the relevant Seller within the time limits specified in Clause 10.2 and shall  86

(ii)if an opinion from reputable local counsel or a firm of accountants of international standing has been obtained at the request of the Withholding Seller as envisaged by Clause 15.11.4, the Purchaser shall (and shall procure that any relevant member of the Purchaser Group shall) make such Relevant Tax Deduction in an amount or on a basis which is consistent with that opinion (which may result in no withholding or deduction), provided that the Withholding Seller has indemnified the Purchaser and any relevant member of the Purchasers Group, to the Purchasers reasonable satisfaction, against any Liabilities arising (including any interest and penalties) should such opinion be wholly or partly incorrect.  15.11.6The Purchaser shall promptly provide the Withholding Seller with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Withholding Seller that a Relevant Tax Deduction has been made and an appropriate amount paid to the relevant Tax Authority.  15.11.7If any Relevant Tax Deduction is required an additional sum shall be payable in accordance with Clause 15.11.1 only if and to the extent that such deduction or withholding would not have been required had the Purchaser been resident for Tax purposes only in the United Kingdom.  15.12Structure of indemnity payments  Where it is agreed or determined that an amount is payable by either Seller to the Purchaser or to another member of the Purchasers Group pursuant to any indemnity or covenant to pay in this Agreement, or as damages in respect of a breach of this Agreement, then both Sellers and the Purchaser shall consult in good faith for a period of not less than ten Business Days (or such longer or shorter period as the parties may agree) with a view to agreeing an acceptable arrangement for satisfying that obligation to pay the amount so claimed in an efficient manner that does not prejudice the interests of the Purchasers Group (which may involve, by way of example only, a subscription for deferred shares in the Purchaser or making an additional contribution to the Purchaser in respect of existing shares in the Purchaser).  If both Sellers and the Purchaser fail to agree on any particular manner of payment during the course of such consultations (but not before), the Seller which is liable to make the payment under or in respect of this Agreement shall make that payment in cash to the person entitled to it.  15.13Changes to share rights  15.13.1GlaxoSmithKline shall be entitled, by written notice to Novartis and the Purchaser not less than 20 Business Days before the Closing Date, to stipulate that, subject to the parties implementing the changes agreed pursuant to the final sentence of this clause 15.13.1, the A Shares which shall be issued to members of GlaxoSmithKlines Group under this Agreement shall be split, before Closing, into two classes of Shares, referred to as A1 and A2 shares.

charges, levies, air-conditioning charges, insurance, heating, electricity, gas, telecommunications and other services and the cost of complying with fire and other statutory regulations) payable by the relevant owner in respect of the Licensed Premises or charged upon the owner or occupier of the Licensed Premises,  such payments to be made not less than ten Business Days before any such sum falls due subject to the Seller in relation to the Transferred Property in question giving the Purchaser not less than ten Business Days prior written notice to that effect. To the extent that there has been a prepayment at the Closing Date of the amounts in paragraphs 1.4.4(i) and (ii) of this Part 4 of Schedule 2 by the owner of the Transferred Property which is not otherwise accounted for in the Closing Statement, the Purchaser shall pay to such owner within ten Business Days of written demand an amount equal to the amount of such prepayment in respect of any period after the Closing Date.  1.4.5Throughout the Licence Period, the Purchaser shall, in respect of the Licensed Premises only:  (i)keep the Licensed Premises in no worse a state of repair than they are in at the Closing Date, fair wear and tear excepted;  (ii)observe and perform the covenants and conditions on the part of the lessee in the relevant Lease under which the Licensed Premises are held (other than in relation to the payment of rent and other charges paid as part of the Licence Fee and subject to paragraph 1.4.5(i) of this Part 4 of Schedule 2); and  (iii)use the Licensed Premises only in accordance with the terms of the Lease of the relevant Licensed Premises and in compliance with the law and regulations where the relevant Licensed Premises is located (save for any such law or regulation that prohibits the use of the Licensed Premises without a Property Third Party Consent having been obtained).  1.4.6The Purchaser and each Seller agrees that:  (i)the Licence is personal to the Purchaser and may only be exercised by the Purchaser and those authorised by it;  (ii)(subject to paragraph 1.4.5 of this Part 4 of Schedule 2) the Purchaser and all persons authorised by it are permitted to have the unrestricted use and occupation of the Licensed Premises; and  (iii)no relationship of landlord and tenant is created as a result of the Licence.  1.4.7If a Landlord or any other relevant third party commences proceedings, raises any lawful objection or takes any other action in connection with the Purchasers occupation or use of any of the Licensed Premises pending the obtaining of the relevant Property Third Party Consents, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall meet and  122


negotiate in good faith in order to determine which steps should be taken in respect of the relevant Transferred Property.  1.4.8Throughout the Licence Period, the Purchaser shall, in respect of the Licensed Premises only, indemnify and keep indemnified the owner of the Transferred Property in question from and against any Licence Fee, any Losses arising from the Licence and/or as a result of the occupation of the Licensed Premises by the Purchaser.  1.4.9The Purchaser and the Sellers shall each inform each other forthwith of any notice received by any of them in relation to any of the Licensed Premises from the Landlord or any other third party.  1.5Determination of Licence  1.5.1The Licence in relation to any one or more of the Licensed Premises shall determine:  (i)immediately if the Property Longstop Date occurs;  (ii)by the Seller in relation to the Transferred Property in question giving at least three months prior written notice to the Purchaser if the Purchaser fails to make the payment of the Licence Fee for a period of one month or is otherwise in material breach of the provisions of the Licence for a continuous period of one month following written notification by such Seller to the Purchaser of the same, and in either case the Purchaser has failed to remedy the relevant failure to pay or to remedy the  breach prior to the expiry of the three month notice period or, if the breach is not capable of remedy within such three month period, the Purchaser has failed to commence to remedy the breach within that period and thereafter failed diligently to continue with such remedy; or  (iii)if the relevant Landlord in relation to a Transferred Leased Property prosecutes forfeiture proceedings (or the nearest local law equivalent) as a result of the occupation by the Purchaser of the Licensed Premises then the parties shall either:  (a)agree that the Licence shall determine on a date to be agreed between the parties (acting reasonably); or  (b)in the absence of such agreement, either party may require a QC (or equivalent) with no less than 15 years post-qualification experience in commercial real estate in the relevant jurisdiction to be appointed (such appointment to be by agreement between the Sellers or, failing agreement, within 14 days, by the President (as defined in paragraph 1.3.2(ii) of this Part 4 of Schedule 2)). Should the QC determine that there is more than a 50% chance of the proceedings in question resulting in the Lease in question being forfeited (or equivalent), then the Licence shall determine on a date to be agreed between the Sellers (acting reasonably) in order to afford the relevant Seller the opportunity to apply for relief from  123


forfeiture or otherwise challenge the proceedings in question on the basis that any breach resulting from the grant of the Licence has been cured,  provided that this paragraph 1.5.1(iii) shall at all times operate without prejudice to paragraphs 1.4.7, 1.5.1(i) and 1.12.  1.5.2If, for whatever reason, the Licence Period comes to an end in relation to any of the Licensed Premises then:  (i)the Licence insofar as it relates to the relevant Licensed Premises shall be severable from the remainder of this Agreement and this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect;  (ii)the Purchaser shall be entitled to a refund in respect of any Licence Fee prior to the termination of the Licence for the Licensed Premises and which relates to the period following termination of the Licence;  (iii)it shall not prejudice or affect any claim in respect of any prior breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser in respect of that Licensed Premises; and  (iv)unless the Licence Period comes to an end due to Property Transfer Completion in respect of the relevant Licensed Premises taking place, the Purchaser shall:  (a)vacate the Licensed Premises forthwith;  (b)remove from the Licensed Premises all items belonging to it;  (c)leave the Licensed Premises in a clean and tidy condition; and  (d)at the request of the Seller in relation to the Transferred Property in question, reinstate the Licensed Premises or any part or parts thereof to at least as good a state of repair or condition as at Closing, fair wear and tear excepted.  1.6Closing  1.6.1The transfer of the Transferred Property shall only take place on Closing to the extent that all necessary Property Third Party Consents in respect of the relevant transfer have been obtained prior to the Closing Date.  1.6.2Completion of the transfer of the Transferred Property shall take place at such place (or places) as the parties may agree.  1.7Property Transfer Completion  Property Transfer Completion in respect of a Transferred Property shall take place on the date falling 15 Business Days following the grant of all relevant Property Third Party  124

Where the Seller is able to obtain the appropriate Sublease Consent (or, where applicable, the court of competent jurisdiction referred to in paragraph 1.12.1 of this Part 4 of Schedule 2 declares that the Sublease Consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Seller shall procure that the owner of the Transferred Property in question shall grant to the Purchaser a sublease of the Transferred Leased Property on the same rent and other terms and conditions as the Lease of the Transferred Leased Property with such changes as are appropriate and agreed between the Seller and the Purchaser acting reasonably and the term of the sublease shall be the term of such Lease less one day.  128

Part 5 Site Separation  1.1Interpretation  The following further definition applies in this Part 5 of Schedule 2:  Separation Properties means any Property or part of a Property which, as at the date of this Agreement, forms part of a wider building or site that is used by both the Target Group and a Sellers retained business.  1.2Separation  1.2.1As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, and in any event prior to Closing, the Sellers and the Purchaser will agree the form of transfers, leases, facilities services arrangements or other agreements (the Separation Documents) to reflect the arrangements described in this Part 5 of Schedule 2.  1.2.2Without prejudice to the principles as to the preservation of arrangements existing at the date of this Agreement set out in the remainder of this paragraph, all Separation Documents are to be negotiated between the parties in good faith, on an arms length basis and on reasonable commercial terms.  1.2.3The Separation Documents will enable the owner of the Separation Property and the relevant Sellers retained business to continue to use the Property and the adjoining or neighbouring property of that Sellers retained business respectively in the same manner (including as to terms of use/occupation and costs) as they are used at the date of this Agreement and will incorporate such other provisions (including as to site security or physical site separation) as the Sellers may agree are fair and reasonable in all the circumstances.  1.2.4Each Separation Document will grant and reserve rights to continue to use all roads, access ways and conduits used and enjoyed by the relevant Separation Property (or the adjoining or neighbouring property of the relevant Sellers retained business, as the case may be) at the date of this Agreement on terms reflecting as closely as possible their use at the date of this Agreement.  1.2.5Each Separation Document is to be in a form appropriate to the jurisdiction in which the relevant Separation Property is situated and will comply with all formalities and other requirements in the relevant jurisdiction.  1.2.6The Separation Documents which are underleases will follow the form of the relevant headlease (other than in respect of the amount of rent and the length of term) insofar as is reasonably appropriate.  130


1.2.7In the event of any disagreement under or in respect of this paragraph 1.2, the matter may be referred by either Seller to  the person (or persons) within each Seller with ultimate responsibility (on a national level) for property matters within the jurisdiction in question, and in the event that the matter is not resolved by agreement between the parties within three months, may be referred by either party to an independent lawyer in the relevant jurisdiction, being a partner in a reputable law firm with not less than ten years post-qualification experience in dealing with commercial property transactions (the Independent Lawyer).  In the absence of agreement between the Sellers, the Independent Lawyer is to be appointed by the President of the Law Society (or other body responsible for regulation of the legal profession in the relevant jurisdiction) on the application of either party.  1.2.8The Independent Lawyer will act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and his decision will be binding on the parties.  1.2.9The Independent Lawyer may obtain any additional professional advice in order to reach a decision as he may deem necessary or desirable.  1.2.10The cost of the determination by the Independent Lawyer will be met by the Sellers in equal shares.  1.3Preservation of Rights  1.3.1If following Closing the Purchaser or either Seller shall be of the view that a Separation Document omits the grant or reservation of any rights (including any rights of access, rights to use facilities and/or rights in respect of any item of apparatus or equipment) which is required for the purposes of the business carried out at a Separation Property or the adjoining or neighbouring property of the relevant Sellers retained business (each such right being an Omitted Right or Easement), it shall give the notice referred to in paragraph 1.3.2 and the Sellers (acting reasonably and in the utmost good faith) will meet and attempt to reach agreement with regard to any amendments needed to the relevant Separation Document, or any additional document or documents that are necessary.  1.3.2If any party identifies any Omitted Rights or Easements, that party shall give written notice thereof to the other parties as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within two years of the Closing Date (time to be of the essence).  1.3.3Any dispute or difference as to Omitted Rights or Easements shall be resolved in the manner set out in paragraph 1.2.7, and as soon as practicable following agreement or determination as to any Omitted Rights or Easements (and in any case within two months of such agreement or determination) the Purchaser and the Sellers will procure to be executed any deeds or other documents required in order to give effect to the agreed or determined position.  131

Any assets or liabilities excluded from being transferred to the Purchaser in accordance with this paragraph 9.2 shall be deemed to constitute Novartis Excluded Assets or GlaxoSmithKline Excluded Assets, as the case may be.  10.3With effect from the date of this Agreement, the Sellers shall consult with one another (acting reasonably and in good faith) so as to determine whether the assets and liabilities comprised in each of their Contributed Businesses relating (in whole or in part) to each GlaxoSmithKline US RX Product and each Novartis US RX Product, as applicable, can be transferred to the Purchaser (or another member of its Group) at Closing without the transfer resulting in the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or their respective businesses being subject to or bound by the terms of the [***] post-Closing and without the transfer resulting in any breach of the [***].  10.4To the extent that, notwithstanding paragraph 9.3 of this Schedule 6, any assets and liabilities of a Sellers Contributed Business are deemed to constitute Novartis Excluded Assets or GlaxoSmithKline Excluded Assets pursuant to paragraph 9.2 of this Schedule 6, then the following provisions shall apply to such Novartis Excluded Assets or GlaxoSmithKline Excluded Assets (subject to Applicable Law):  10.4.1with effect from Closing, and only if Closing occurs, until the date of completion of any US RX Product Disposal (if any) the relevant Seller shall procure that such arrangements are put in place between it and the Purchaser as are necessary to put the Purchaser in no worse (or better) position than it would have been had in such Novartis Excluded Assets or GlaxoSmithKline Excluded Assets (as the case may be) been transferred to it at Closing, and prior to Closing, the parties shall enter into discussions (acting reasonably and in good faith) with a view to reaching agreement on such arrangements; and  10.4.2the relevant Seller shall be entitled to dispose of, or out-licence, all or part of any such Novartis Excluded Assets or GlaxoSmithKline Excluded Assets at any time prior to or after Closing (a US RX Product Disposal) and the following provisions shall apply in respect of any US RX Product Disposal (subject to Applicable Law):  (i)the relevant Seller shall inform the Purchaser of, and consult with the Purchaser in relation to, all material steps to be taken in respect of such sale and shall take reasonable account of any views of the Purchaser so expressed in connection with the same;  (ii)prior to the first circulation of any material draft sale (or out-licensing as relevant) documentation in respect of such sale (or out-licensing as relevant), the relevant Seller shall provide the Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documentation and shall take reasonable account of any views of the Purchaser so expressed in connection with the same;  153


(iii)with effect from Closing, and only if Closing occurs, all of the proceeds of any such sale (or out-licensing as relevant) shall, unless such proceeds are received by a Target Group Company, be paid to the Purchaser to such account as it may direct promptly following receipt of the same by the relevant Seller (or any of its Affiliates); and  (iv)the Purchaser shall indemnify the relevant Seller for any reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such sale process (or out-licensing process, as relevant), excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs and expenses arising out of, or in connection with the exercising of rights and/or obligations under any definitive documentation in respect of such sale (or out-licensing, as relevant) (and the parties shall work together to seek to avoid any potential double taxation of the proceeds).  154


Schedule 7 Employees  1INFORMATION AND CONSULTATION  1.1At such time as the parties agree to be appropriate following the public announcement of the matters contemplated by this Agreement, each Seller and the Purchaser or the relevant member of the Purchasers Group shall jointly communicate to the Employees an agreed notice which shall (other than to the extent the parties agree otherwise):  1.1.1inform the Employees that following Closing those Employees who continue to be employed in the Contributed Business would be employed by the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchasers Group; and  1.1.2comply with the requirements of any applicable national law.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties may agree to issue such notice to different Employees or categories of Employees at different times and in different forms.  1.2Notwithstanding the operation of paragraph 1.1 above, each Seller and the Purchaser agree to comply with any more onerous notice requirements imposed by local laws.  1.3Each Seller agrees that it shall be permitted to conduct its own information and consultation exercise in respect of the matters contemplated by this Agreement with its own Employees without interference from the other Seller. Each Seller agrees to co-operate with the other Seller in respect of that other Sellers information and consultation process to ensure as far as practicable that the communications of a Seller with the Employees of that Seller are aligned with the communications of the other Seller with the Employees of that other Seller.  1.4The Purchaser (on its own behalf and on behalf of any relevant member of the Purchasers Group) shall provide each Seller (for itself and any relevant member of such Sellers Group) with such information and assistance at such times as such Seller may reasonably request or as may be reasonably necessary for such Seller or any other member of such Sellers Group to comply with any formal or informal requirement to inform or consult with the Employees, a relevant trade union, a relevant works council, or any other employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement (which formal or informal requirements the Seller hereby undertakes to comply or procure compliance with). Where reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with any formal or informal requirements or obligations to inform or consult with Employees, a relevant trade union, a relevant works council or any other employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement, each Seller (for itself and for each member of its Group) and the Purchaser (for itself and for each member of its Group) agree that the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchasers Group shall cooperate with and participate in any information, negotiation and/or consultation process as reasonably required by that relevant Seller.  155


1.5As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement each Seller agrees to provide on a timely basis such information, in writing, in respect of its existing terms and conditions of employment as may reasonably be required by the other Seller so as to facilitate that other Sellers information and consultation exercise with its Employees in respect of the matters set out in this Agreement.  2TARGET BUSINESS EMPLOYEES  2.1General  2.1.1The Purchaser shall (or shall procure that the relevant member of its Group shall) fulfil all its duties and obligations under Applicable Law in relation to the Target Business Employees.  Where the provisions of local law do not provide for an automatic transfer of the employment of the Target Business Employees to the Purchaser or a relevant member of its Group with effect from (and including) the Closing Date, then paragraph 2.2 below shall apply. Where the provisions of local law do provide for an automatic transfer of employment of the Relevant Target Business Employees to the Purchaser or the relevant member of its Group with effect from (and including) the Closing Date, then paragraph 2.3 below shall apply.  2.1.2Each Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that, in relation to Deferred Employees of a member of that Sellers Group:  (i)any Deferred Employee shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as if such Deferred Employee were a Target Business Employee or a Target Company Employee (as appropriate);  (ii)the Purchasers obligations under this Schedule 7 shall apply in respect of each Deferred Employee in the same way as they do to each Target Business Employee or Target Company Employee (as appropriate); and  (iii)if any Deferred Employee accepts an offer of employment made by the Purchaser under paragraph 2.2.1 below or becomes an employee of a Target Group Company after the Closing Date, such Deferred Employee shall further be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as a Transferred Employee.  2.1.3For the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph 2 shall not apply to any Excluded Employee, who will remain employed by a Seller or the relevant member of that Sellers Group.  2.2Where no Automatic Transfer of Employment  2.2.1In such timescale as each Seller and the Purchaser may agree, but in any event at least 30 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser or relevant member of its Group shall make an offer to each Target Business Employee employed by that Seller  or a member of its Group to employ him or her under a new contract of employment to commence with effect from (and including) the Closing Date provided  156


that such employee continues to be a Target Business Employee until the Closing Date. Save as otherwise agreed with that Seller (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld), the offer to be made will be on the same terms and conditions (including as to period of continuous employment) as were provided to that Target Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date. The Purchaser shall keep each Seller updated throughout the offer process on when offers are made and accepted or rejected.  2.2.2If the Target Business Employee wishes to accept the offer of employment from the Purchaser or the relevant member of its Group, then the Seller who employs (whether directly or indirectly) that person shall (or shall procure that the relevant member of its Group shall), insofar as it is permitted by Applicable Law, waive the requirement on the Target Business Employee concerned to give any period of notice of termination of his or her employment under the terms of his or her employment so as to allow the Target Business Employee to commence employment with the Purchaser or relevant member of its Group with effect from (and including) the Closing Date.  2.3Where Automatic Transfer of Employment  If the Transfer Regulations do not or are found not to or are alleged not to apply to any person who is a Relevant Target Business Employee, and to whom paragraph 2.2 does not apply, the Purchaser agrees that following Closing:  2.3.1in consultation with the Seller who employs (whether directly or indirectly) that person, the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchasers Group shall within ten Business Days of being so requested by that Seller (as long as the request is made no later than three months after Closing) (or if the Purchaser so chooses) make such Relevant Target Business Employee an offer in writing to employ him or her under a new contract of employment subject to, and to take effect upon, a date agreed between that Seller, the Purchaser and such employee; and  2.3.2save as otherwise agreed with that Seller (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld) the offer to be made will be on the same terms and conditions (including as to period of continuous employment) as were provided to that Relevant Target Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.  3WRONG-POCKET ARRANGEMENTS FOR PERSONS OTHER THAN RELEVANT EMPLOYEES  3.1If the contract of employment of any person other than a Relevant Employee is found or alleged to have effect upon Closing as if originally made with the Purchaser or another member of its Group (including any Target Group Company) as a consequence of this Agreement, or if any Target Group Company employs any person who does not work wholly or substantially in the relevant Contributed Business, the Seller whose Group had  157


previously employed (whether directly or indirectly) such person agrees that following Closing:  3.1.1in consultation with the Purchaser, that Seller or relevant member of its Group may within ten Business Days of being so requested by the Purchaser (as long as the request is made no later than three months after Closing) (or if that Seller so chooses), make to that person an offer in writing to employ him or her under a new contract of employment subject to, and to take effect upon, the termination referred to below; and  3.1.2the offer to be made will be on the same terms and conditions (including as to period of continuous employment) as were provided to that person immediately prior to the Closing Date.  3.2After the expiry of the ten Business Days referred to at paragraph 3.1 above, and provided that the relevant member of the Purchasers Group takes such steps as are legally possible to terminate the employment of the person concerned as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of the finding or allegation referred to at paragraph 3.1 above (either by giving notice or transferring the person by agreement to be concluded between the relevant member of the Purchasers Group, the person concerned and the relevant member of that Sellers Group), that Seller shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Purchaser (for itself and as trustee for any relevant member of its Group) against all Losses from time to time made, suffered or incurred by the Purchaser (or any other member of its Group) as a result of:  3.2.1the actual or alleged transfer to a member of the Purchasers Group and (regardless of whether there has been such a transfer) any employment liabilities relating to such person;  3.2.2employing such person on and from the Closing Date until such termination (up to the time reasonably expected to have achieved such termination in accordance with the terms of the contract of employment and Applicable Law but subject to a maximum period of six months unless prevented by the terms of the contract of employment or Applicable Law); and  3.2.3such termination.  3.3Each Seller and the Purchaser agree to co-operate in good faith to minimise the Losses which are subject to the indemnity referred to in paragraph 3.2 above.  4EMPLOYMENT LIABILITIES  4.1All wages, salaries, employers liabilities in respect of associated Taxes and other periodic outgoings in respect of the Transferred Employees which relate to a period:  4.1.1after the Closing Date shall be borne or discharged by the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchasers Group; and  158


4.1.2on or before the Closing Date shall be borne or discharged by the Seller or relevant member of its Group to which they relate.  4.2Each Seller shall (for itself and for each member of its Group) indemnify and keep indemnified the Purchaser (for itself and as trustee for each other member of its Group) against all Losses (ignoring any amount in respect of Employee Benefits, as to which see Schedule 8) in respect of:  4.2.1the employment of any Employee at any time prior to the Closing Date (excluding any Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities (as defined in Schedule 8 of that Seller) which the Purchaser agrees to assume in accordance with Schedule 8);  4.2.2any termination of the employment of any Employees prior to the Closing Date, including, but not limited to, all claims relating to severance, termination pay, pay in lieu of notice of termination and similar obligations (excluding any liability arising directly as a result of any breach of the commitments set out in paragraph 5 or 6 below by the Purchaser or a member of the Purchasers Group and any act or omission by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group in relation to any Employee before Closing as a result of which that Employee treats his employment as having been terminated prior to the Closing Date);  4.2.3any amount which becomes payable to any Employee or benefit to which any Employee becomes entitled by reason of this Agreement or the matters it contemplates, including any change of control or other payment or benefit (and including any enhancement of severance terms on a subsequent termination of employment but excluding any Losses relating to any share-based incentive schemes, as to which see paragraph 10 below);  4.2.4any failure by such Seller or any other member of such Sellers Group to comply with any obligation to inform or consult with employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement (other than as a result of any failure set out in paragraph 4.3.3 below); and  4.2.5any breach by such Seller or any other member of such Sellers Group of paragraph 4.1.2 above or paragraph 4.4, 4.5 or 9 below.  Where this paragraph 4.2 refers to an Employee this is a reference to an Employee employed prior to the Closing Date by the Seller giving the indemnity (or a member of that Sellers Group) and not to an Employee of the other Sellers Group prior to the Closing Date.  4.3The Purchaser shall (for itself and for each member of the Purchasers Group) indemnify and keep indemnified each Seller (for itself and as trustee for each other member of such Sellers Group) against all Losses (ignoring any amount in respect of Employee Benefits, as to which see Schedule 8) in respect of:  159


4.3.1the employment of any of the Transferred Employees on and after the Closing Date (including, without limitation, any changes to terms and conditions of employment by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchasers Group);  4.3.2any termination of the employment of any Transferred Employees on and after the Closing Date including, but not limited to, all claims relating to severance, termination pay, pay in lieu of notice of termination and similar obligations except as contemplated under paragraph 3.2 above;  4.3.3any failure by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchasers Group to provide information and reasonable assistance to such Seller to enable such Seller or any other member of such Sellers Group to comply with any obligation to inform or consult with employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement;  4.3.4any breach by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchasers Group of paragraph 4.1.1 above or paragraphs 4.4 or 4.5 below; and  4.3.5any act or omission by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group in relation to any Employee before Closing as a result of which that Employee treats his employment as having been terminated prior to the Closing Date.  4.4Any amount payable to or in respect of any Transferred Employee after Closing (including without limitation amounts paid under paragraph 4.5 below) which (ignoring vesting conditions and any amount payable in respect of Employee Benefits or otherwise in accordance with Schedule 8) is referable to the period prior to Closing is payable by the Seller to whom such Transferred Employee relates (for itself or on behalf of the relevant Business Seller or relevant Share Seller). Responsibility for amounts payable which are only partly referable to the period prior to Closing (again ignoring vesting conditions) is to be shared between the relevant Seller (for itself or on behalf of the relevant Business Seller or relevant Share Seller) and the Purchaser (for itself or on behalf of the relevant member of the Purchasers Group) such that that Seller bears S per cent. of the cost and the Purchaser bears P per cent., where S is the percentage of the period by reference to which the amount was earned which fell on or before the Closing Date and P is the percentage of that period which falls after the Closing Date.  The Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchasers Group shall, pay such amounts when due to the relevant Transferred Employees on or after Closing and shall deduct and/or pay and account for any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such amounts. Each Seller covenants to reimburse the Purchaser in respect of any such amount (or S per cent. of it where relevant), including any Tax due payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such amount, within 30 days of receiving notification that it has been paid, to the extent such amounts are not reflected in the Closing Statement. Each Seller will provide the Purchaser with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to allow such payments to be made.  160


4.5Following the Closing Date:  4.5.1the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that a member of the Purchasers Group shall, pay a pro-rated cash bonus of an amount advised by each Seller to the Purchaser to each Transferred Employee formerly employed by that Sellers Group and who participated in an annual cash bonus plan immediately before the Closing Date in their first payroll payment after the Closing Date; and  4.5.2where the Seller to whom such Transferred Employee relates is able to determine performance, any such bonus payment made to such eligible employees by the Purchaser or a member of the Purchasers Group will be based on that Sellers determination of performance to the Closing Date and pro-rated to the Closing Date; or  4.5.3where that Seller is unable to determine performance (either business or individual), for example, because the Closing Date occurs near the start of the bonus year, that Seller shall calculate any such bonus payment based on a deemed achievement of performance conditions at target level pro-rated to the Closing Date; and  4.5.4as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchasers Group shall, provide such information as that Seller requires in order for that Seller to calculate the Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such bonus payments; and  4.5.5the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchasers Group shall, deduct and/or account for any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such bonus payments; and  4.5.6that Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser for the aggregate bonuses advised by that Seller to the Purchaser which are paid pursuant to this paragraph 4.5 along with the employers social security contributions due in respect of such payments to the extent such amounts are not reflected in the Closing Statement.  5PROTECTION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND TERMINATION RIGHTS POST-CLOSING  5.1Without prejudice to paragraph 5.4 below, the Purchaser shall procure that for a period of 24 months following the Closing Date:  5.1.1each Transferred Employee will (for so long as such Transferred Employee continues in the same role with any member of the Purchasers Group save that the Purchaser shall not seek to demote any Transferred Employee to avoid the application of this provision) continue to receive at least the same basic salary;  161


5.1.2each Transferred Employee will continue to receive contractual benefits (but excluding Employee Benefits and any share-based incentive schemes or other long-term incentive plans) which the Purchaser reasonably considers to be substantially comparable, taken as a whole, to the contractual benefits (but excluding Employee Benefits and any share-based incentive schemes or other long-term incentive plans) of such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date; and  5.1.3no Transferred Employee will suffer a change to his overall employment terms (whether contractual or otherwise) and including, without limitation, any related to length of service (but excluding Employee Benefits and any share-based incentive schemes or other long-term incentive plans) which, when taken as a whole viewed in the round (including to the extent relevant alongside any other changes being made at the same time to that Transferred Employees employment terms), would in the Purchasers reasonable opinion acting in good faith be regarded as materially detrimental.  5.2The Purchaser confirms that, following the Closing Date and for so long as the Transferred Employees continue in the employment of any member of the Purchasers Group, the Transferred Employees will be eligible to participate in those share-based incentive schemes or other long-term incentive plans that are operated by the Purchaser or relevant members of the Purchasers Group from time to time for employees of equivalent status, subject always to the rules of such share-based incentive schemes or long-term incentive plans and any qualifying conditions.  5.3Each Seller shall provide or shall cause to be provided to any member of the Purchasers Group such information reasonably requested in writing by any member of the Purchasers Group to enable the Purchaser to comply with its obligations in paragraph 5.1 above.  5.4If the employment of any Transferred Employee is terminated by reason of redundancy within 24 months following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall procure that there shall be provided to such Transferred Employee benefits which are equivalent to those provided under such redundancy and severance policies and benefits (whether contractual or otherwise and giving due credit to the Transferred Employees for any additional service or earnings from the Closing Date onwards) (but excluding Employee Benefits other than the Agreed UK Restructuring Arrangement) as were applicable in respect of the particular Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, to the extent that such policies and benefits are notified in writing to the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date. If, at any time during the 24 month period immediately following the Closing Date, the Purchaser places any Transferred Employee into a redundancy selection process, the Purchaser undertakes that, in determining such selection, it will or will procure that the relevant member of the Purchasers Group will take no account of the costs of dismissal of any person within the relevant selection pool (including such Transferred Employee).  162


5.5For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph 5 are without prejudice to the operation of any rule of law in relation to the terms and conditions of employment of the Transferred Employees.  6BENEFITS ARRANGEMENTS/SERVICE CONTINUITY  6.1Each Transferred Employee shall have their service with the Sellers Group and their respective predecessors recognised under any employee benefit plans or arrangements of the Purchasers Group for all purposes of eligibility, vesting and accrual of benefits to the extent past service was recognised for such Transferred Employee under a comparable plan or arrangement immediately prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph 6.1 shall be construed to require recognition of service for the purposes of calculation of Employee Benefits or that would result in:  6.1.1any additional liability being assumed by the Purchasers Group in respect of Employee Benefits other than subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 8;  6.1.2duplication of benefit;  6.1.3recognition of service for any purposes under any plan or arrangement for which participation, service and/or benefits accrual is frozen or any post-retirement medical plan; or  6.1.4recognition of service under a newly established plan or arrangement for which prior service is not taken into account for employees of the Purchasers Group generally.  6.2Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to the Transferred Employees, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause such other member of the Purchasers Group to, be responsible for all paid time off benefits, including vacation pay, sick pay, banked leave, flexitime and other payments for time off of normal work hours accrued by the Transferred Employees up to the Closing Date provided that if the value of such matters (excluding normal accrued but untaken annual leave for the year current as at Closing) would exceed US$7.5 million if accrued for in a balance sheet in accordance with IFRS; then the Seller to whom such Transferred Employees relate shall compensate the Purchaser for such matters (again excluding normal accrued but untaken annual leave for the year current as at Closing) by paying the Purchaser an amount equal to that value, less any amount actually accrued and transferred to the Purchaser for such matters.  6.3With respect to any welfare plan maintained by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchasers Group in which Transferred Employees are eligible to participate after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall:  6.3.1waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions, evidence of insurability provisions, waiting periods with respect to such participation and coverage requirements or similar provisions under the Purchasers benefit plans that are welfare plans (as defined in section 3(1) of ERISA or any equivalent Applicable Law) applicable to such employees to the extent such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods or other provisions were satisfied or did not apply to such  163


employees under welfare plans maintained by the Seller to whom such Transferred Employees relate or other members of its Group prior to the Closing Date; and  6.3.2provide each Transferred Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any analogous deductible or out-of-pocket requirements to the extent applicable under any such plan in the year in which Closing occurs, to the extent credited under the welfare plans maintained by the  Seller to whom such Transferred Employees relate or other members of its Group prior to the Closing Date.  7US TRANSFERRED EMPLOYEES  7.1To the extent the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchasers Group maintains a health care and dependent care flexible spending account arrangement pursuant to section 125 or 129 of the Code (collectively FSAs), the Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to honour the elections of all Transferred Employees who are employed in the United States and/or covered by US Benefit Plans (US Transferred Employees) under the FSAs of any relevant member of the Sellers Group to whom such Transferred Employees relate (Relevant Employers FSAs), as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, and the Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to assume responsibility for administering all reimbursement claims of US Transferred Employees with respect to the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs that are submitted for payment on or after the Closing Date, whether arising before, on or after the Closing Date, under the Purchasers FSAs. As soon as practicable but no more than 45 days following the Closing Date, the Seller will cause to be transferred to the Purchaser an amount in cash equal to: (i) the sum of all contributions to the Relevant Employers FSAs with respect to the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs by or on behalf of the US Transferred Employees prior to the Closing Date, reduced by; (ii) the sum of all claims incurred in the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs that are submitted to the Relevant Employer for payment prior to the Closing Date and paid by the Relevant Employers FSAs with respect to such US Transferred Employees prior to the date of such cash transfer to the Purchaser; provided, however, if this calculation results in a negative number, then the Purchaser will pay to the relevant Seller (on behalf of the Relevant Employer) as soon as practicable following the end of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, the amount by which (ii) exceeds (i).  7.2With effect on and from the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other members of the Purchasers Group shall, assume the responsibility and obligation to provide COBRA continuation coverage to all US Transferred Employees whose employment is terminated after the Closing Date and their eligible dependents.  8INTERNATIONAL ASSIGNEES  Where Applicable Law does not provide for the automatic transfer of employment of any International Assignee and/or the other terms governing their international assignment, the Purchaser shall assume and agree to be bound by the individual contract of employment and such other terms governing their international assignment including  164


any tax equalisation agreement entered into between an International Assignee and a member of a Sellers Group provided that such employee becomes a Transferred Employee and each Seller has disclosed to the other Seller the template international assignment terms of that Sellers Group prior to the Closing Date.  9LIABILITY FOR RETENTION ARRANGEMENTS  Each Seller or any other member of the Sellers Group has or will put in place certain retention arrangements (in the form of cash) to retain key employees in connection with the matters contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent that details of such retention arrangements are disclosed to the other Seller prior to the Closing Date, and in respect of arrangements put in place after the date of this Agreement, with the agreement of that other Seller, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchasers Group shall, make the cash retention payments when due to the relevant Transferred Employees on or after Closing and shall deduct and/or pay and account for any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such cash payments. Each Seller covenants to reimburse the Purchaser in respect of any cash retention payments, whether or not disclosed (including any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such payments), which are put in place prior to the Closing Date. Each Seller will provide the Purchaser with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to allow such payments to be made.  10SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE SCHEMES  This paragraph 10 applies notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.  Outstanding share-based awards under Novartiss Group plans  10.1Subject to paragraph 10.10, Novartis undertakes to use its best endeavours to ensure that share-based awards held by Transferred Employees pursuant to a share-based incentive scheme operated by Novartis or another member of Novartiss Group (Novartis Awards) shall be treated in a manner consistent with the good leaver treatment in the share-based incentive schemes operated by the Purchaser, to the extent possible under the relevant plan rules and any applicable law.  Where Novartis Awards are subject to performance (or other) conditions and it is not possible to determine whether or not such conditions have been met at the applicable early vesting date (or within a reasonable period thereafter), the Sellers agree that performance shall be deemed on target.  For the avoidance of doubt:  (i)where necessary and subject to (ii), Novartis shall rely on the exercise of existing discretions in the relevant plan rules and (provided the approval of Novartiss shareholders is not required) shall be expected to amend the relevant plan rules to achieve the good leaver treatment;  (ii)Novartis (or relevant member of Novartiss Group) shall not take any action which would require shareholder approval or which could trigger any significant legal, Tax or operational issues for the relevant Transferred Employee  165


(including the loss of any Tax-favourable treatment), GlaxoSmithKlines Group, Novartiss Group or the Purchasers Group.  For the purposes of this paragraph 10.1, the good leaver treatment shall be that:  (iii)Novartis Awards shall not lapse or be forfeited as a result of Closing except to the extent that they do not vest in accordance with (iv) and/or (v) below;  (iv)Novartis Awards shall vest early as a result of Closing and shall be time pro-rated to take account of the reduced period of time, as a proportion of the original vesting period, that the relevant Transferred Employee worked within Novartiss Group (calculated on the basis of the number of years of service as at the Closing Date, where part years of service are rounded up); and  (v)Novartis Awards that vest after the Closing Date shall remain subject to any relevant performance (or other) conditions, adjusted as necessary to take account of Closing and measured up to the applicable early vesting date.  10.2For the purposes of this paragraph 10.2, on target performance shall not be construed as permitting share-based awards to vest in full.  10.3Novartis agrees to indemnify the Purchaser (or relevant member of the Purchasers Group) for any Liabilities borne by the Purchasers Group in connection with the Novartis Awards, including any Tax.  The Sellers agree to use their best endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser seeks any applicable Tax relief in respect of the Novartis Awards and indemnifies Novartis in respect of any Tax relief obtained, provided always that Novartis provides the Purchaser with any information that the Purchaser may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner.  10.4Subject to paragraph 10.5, Novartis undertakes to inform the Purchaser of the vesting or exercise (as applicable) of the Novartis Awards and to provide, in a timely manner, details of the Novartis Awards that so vest or are exercised so that the Purchasers Group can make any applicable withholdings for Tax and pay any Tax for which the Purchasers Group is liable in respect of the Novartis Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  10.5To the extent permitted under the relevant plan rules and any applicable law, Novartis undertakes to sell such number of the shares underlying the Novartis Awards as may be necessary for the sale proceeds to satisfy any applicable Tax withholdings and to pay such amounts to the Purchaser in sufficient time for the Purchaser to pay such Tax to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale, provided always that the Purchaser provides Novartis with any information that Novartis may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner.  10.6Novartis undertakes to pay any Tax for which Novartiss Group is liable in respect of the Novartis Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  10.7Novartis undertakes to complete any relevant Tax Return in respect of the Novartis Awards and to submit any such Tax Return to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  166


10.8This paragraph shall apply where Novartis Awards lapse or are forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) either in whole or in part as a result of Closing.  As soon as practicable following Closing (and, in any event, by the later of 30 days from the Closing Date and 30 days from the first date after the Closing Date when the granting of share-based awards is not prevented by dealing restrictions, subject in both cases to the relevant plan rules and any applicable law), GlaxoSmithKline (or member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group) shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline substantially equal in value (valued as at the date of grant) to the value of the portion of their Novartis Awards which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Closing (valued as at the Closing Date), where relevant, disregarding any loss (or expected loss) of Tax-favourable treatment (each a Compensation Award).  To the extent that (i) it could reasonably have been expected that any related matching share award and/or free share award would have been granted to a Transferred Employee following Closing in connection with any Novartis Award which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Closing (each an Novartis Matching Award), and (ii) such Novartis Matching Award has not been granted (or will not be granted) as a result of Closing, on or around the date on which such Novartis Matching Award would, in the ordinary course of business, have been made by Novartis (or member of Novartiss Group), GlaxoSmithKline (or member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group) shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline substantially equal in value (valued as at the date of grant) to the value of such Novartis Matching Award (valued as at the date of grant of the related Matching Award, defined below), where relevant, disregarding any loss (or expected loss) of Tax-favourable treatment (each a Matching Award), subject to the relevant plan rules and any applicable law.  Such Compensation Awards and Matching Awards shall be granted pursuant to the rules of whichever share-based incentive plan operated by GlaxoSmithKlines Group at the time of grant GlaxoSmithKline considers most closely aligned to the share-based incentive plan operated by Novartiss Group pursuant to which the related Novartis Award had been granted (or related Novartis Matching Award would have been granted) but will vest according to a vesting schedule substantially similar to the vesting schedule that would have otherwise applied to the related Novartis Award or related Novartis Matching Award if Closing had not occurred.  In such cases:  (i)the Sellers agree to use their best endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser seeks any applicable Tax relief in respect of the Compensation Awards and Matching Awards and indemnifies Novartis in respect of 50 per cent. of any Tax relief obtained, and GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to provide the Purchaser with any information that the Purchaser may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner;  (ii)where a Compensation Award or Matching Award is granted in the form of a restricted share award, the Sellers agree to use their reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser obtains a valid election pursuant to section 431 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (or, as applicable, any similar Tax election that is available pursuant to any applicable law in another jurisdiction), provided that, if a Seller makes representations to the other Seller  167


to waive this obligation in respect of certain Compensation Awards or certain Matching Awards and the other Seller consents to such waiver (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), this paragraph (ii) shall not apply in respect of such Compensation Awards or Matching Awards; and  (iii)Novartis agrees to indemnify GlaxoSmithKline (or relevant member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) for any Liabilities borne by GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group in connection with such Compensation Awards and Matching Awards, including any Tax, provided that:  (A)Novartis shall not indemnify GlaxoSmithKline (or relevant member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) to the extent that GlaxoSmithKline (or a member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) compensates Transferred Employees for any loss (or expected loss) of Tax-favourable treatment in respect of Novartis Awards or for any Liabilities to Tax as contemplated in paragraph 10.9 below;  (B)Novartis only agrees to indemnify GlaxoSmithKline (or member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) to a maximum of 50 per cent. of the total of: (i) the value of the portion of such Novartis Awards that lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Closing, (ii) the value of Novartis Matching Awards, and (iii) any related Liabilities, including Tax; and  (C)for the avoidance of doubt, Novartis shall not indemnify GlaxoSmithKline (or member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) for any lapse or forfeiture (or expected lapse or forfeiture) due to a failure to meet any applicable performance (or other) conditions.  For these purposes, the compensation in respect of the portion of an Novartis Award which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Closing shall not exceed the difference between (i) the value of the Novartis Award which could reasonably have been expected to vest on the normal vesting date but for Closing (subject, where applicable, to performance (or other) conditions), and (ii) the value of the Novartis Award which actually vested (or will vest) as a result of Closing.  For the purposes of this paragraph 10.8:  (i)the portion of an Novartis Award which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Closing shall be valued on the basis of the average price of an ordinary share in the capital of Novartis over the five trading days immediately prior to Closing;  (ii)the value of a Compensation Award to be granted shall be valued on the basis of the average price of an ordinary share in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant;  168


(iii)the value of an Novartis Matching Award shall be valued on the basis of the average price of an ordinary share in the capital of Novartis over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant of the related Matching Award;  (iv)the value of a Matching Award to be granted shall be valued on the basis of the average price of an ordinary share in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant; and  (v)any currency conversion shall be made in accordance with Clause 1.13.1.  10.9To the extent that any payment to a Transferred Employee (whether by Novartiss Group, GlaxoSmithKlines Group or by the Purchasers Group) would trigger Liabilities to Tax under section 280G of the United States Internal Revenue Code (Section 280G), the relevant Transferred Employee shall be allowed to choose whether to accept the full payment (and pay any relevant Section 280G Tax) or to receive such lower payment as may be necessary in order to fall below the Section 280G threshold for Tax.  To the extent that any similar Tax would arise pursuant to any applicable law in another jurisdiction, this paragraph 10.9 shall apply mutatis mutandis.  10.10This paragraph shall apply if any member of Novartiss Groups corporate executive team (or similar body) is a Transferred Employee (each a CET Member).  The treatment of share-based awards held by CET members shall be determined by the remuneration committee of the board of directors of Novartis (acting reasonably and in good faith and following informal consultation with GlaxoSmithKline), subject to the rules of any relevant share-based incentive scheme and any applicable law, and the provisions of paragraphs 10.8 and 10.16 shall apply.  Outstanding Share-Based Awards under GlaxoSmithKlines Group Plans  10.11GlaxoSmithKline agrees to indemnify the Purchaser (or relevant member of the Purchasers Group) for any Liabilities borne by the Purchasers Group in connection with share-based awards held by Transferred Employees pursuant to a share-based incentive scheme operated by GlaxoSmithKline or another member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group and which were granted prior to Closing (GlaxoSmithKline Awards), including any Tax.  The Sellers agree to use their best endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser seeks any applicable Tax relief in respect of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards and indemnifies GlaxoSmithKline in respect of any Tax relief obtained, provided always that GlaxoSmithKline provides the Purchaser with any information that the Purchaser may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner.  10.12Subject to paragraph 10.13, GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to inform the Purchaser of the vesting or exercise (as applicable) of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards and to provide, in a timely manner, details of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards that so vest or are exercised so that the Purchasers Group can make any applicable withholdings for Tax and pay any Tax for which the Purchasers Group is liable in respect of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  10.13To the extent permitted under the relevant plan rules and any applicable law, GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to sell such number of the shares underlying the GlaxoSmithKline Awards as may be necessary for the sale proceeds to satisfy any  169


applicable Tax withholdings and to pay such amounts to the Purchaser in sufficient time for the Purchaser to pay such Tax to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale, provided always that the Purchaser provides GlaxoSmithKline with any information that GlaxoSmithKline may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner.  10.14GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to pay any Tax for which GlaxoSmithKlines Group is liable in respect of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  10.15GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to complete any relevant Tax Return in respect of the GlaxoSmithKline Awards and to submit any such Tax Return to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable timescale.  2014 Performance Awards  10.16This paragraph 10.16 shall apply where: (i) a Transferred Employee would, in the ordinary course of business, have been granted a share-based award pursuant to a share-based incentive scheme operated by the relevant Seller or another member of the relevant Sellers Group on the basis of performance criteria linked to the relevant Sellers Groups 2014 financial year (which may, for the avoidance of doubt, be business and/or individual performance criteria and assessment) (each a 2014 Performance Award), and (ii) Closing occurs prior to the grant of such 2014 Performance Award.  As soon as practicable following Closing (and, in any event, by the later of 30 days from the Closing Date and 30 days from the date when the value of each 2014 Performance Award has been determined), the relevant Seller shall notify the Purchaser (and, where the relevant Seller is Novartis, shall also notify GlaxoSmithKline) in writing of the value of each 2014 Performance Award and under which share-based incentive plan operated by the relevant Sellers Group the related 2014 Performance Award would have been granted.  As soon as practicable following the receipt of such notice (and, in any event, by the later of 30 days from the receipt of such notice and 30 days from the first date following the receipt of such notice when the granting of share-based awards is not prevented by dealing restrictions, subject in both cases to the relevant plan rules and any applicable law), GlaxoSmithKline (or member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group) shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline substantially equal in value (valued as at the date of grant) to the value of the 2014 Performance Award which would have been granted but for the occurrence of Closing.  Such 2014 Performance Awards shall be granted pursuant to the rules of whichever share-based incentive plan operated by GlaxoSmithKlines Group at the time of grant GlaxoSmithKline considers most closely aligned to the share-based incentive plan operated by the relevant Sellers Group pursuant to which the related 2014 Performance Award would have been granted.  In such cases:  (i)the Sellers agree to use their best endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser seeks any applicable Tax relief in respect of the 2014 Performance Awards and indemnifies the relevant Seller in respect of any Tax relief obtained, and GlaxoSmithKline undertakes to provide the Purchaser with any information that the Purchaser may reasonably request in this respect in a timely manner;  170


(ii)where a 2014 Performance Award is granted in the form of a restricted share award, the Sellers agree to use their reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser obtains a valid election pursuant to section 431 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (or, as applicable, any similar Tax election that is available pursuant to any applicable law in another jurisdiction), provided that, if a Seller makes representations to the other Seller to waive this obligation in respect of certain 2014 Performance Awards and the other Seller consents to such waiver (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), this paragraph (ii) shall not apply in respect of such 2014 Performance Awards; and  (iii)the relevant Seller agrees to indemnify GlaxoSmithKline (or relevant member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group) for any Liabilities borne by GlaxoSmithKlines Group or the Purchasers Group in connection with such 2014 Performance Awards, including any Tax.  The grant of a 2014 Performance Award to a Transferred Employee shall be taken into account by the Purchaser when determining the extent to which that Transferred Employee shall participate in incentive arrangements (other than any Compensation Award or Matching Award) for employees of the Purchasers Group following Closing.  For the purposes of this paragraph 10.16:  (i)the value of a 2014 Performance Award to be granted shall: (i) be determined by the relevant Seller acting reasonably and in good faith, (ii) be consistent with both past practice and with the level of similar awards granted to employees (where Novartis is the relevant Seller) remaining in service within Novartiss Group or (where GlaxoSmithKline is the relevant Seller) remaining in service within GlaxoSmithKlines Group, (iii) take into account the relevant business and/or individual performance criteria linked to the Sellers Groups 2014 financial year, and (iv) if Closing occurs before 31 December 2014, be time pro-rated to take account of the reduced period of time, as a proportion of the relevant Sellers Groups 2014 financial year, that the relevant Transferred Employee worked within (where Novartis is the relevant Seller) Novartiss Group or (where GlaxoSmithKline is the relevant Seller) within GlaxoSmithKlines Group (calculated on the basis of the number of complete months of service as at the Closing Date);  (ii)the number of shares to be placed under a 2014 Performance Award shall be valued on the basis of the average price of an ordinary share in the capital of GlaxoSmithKline over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant; and  (iii)any currency conversion shall be made in accordance with Clause 1.13.1.  Future share-based incentives  10.17The Sellers confirm that it is envisaged that any share-based incentives to be provided to employees of the Purchasers Group following Closing will be granted pursuant to share-based incentives schemes operated by GlaxoSmithKline or a member of  171


GlaxoSmithKlines Group (the JV Awards). Subject to paragraphs 10.8 and 10.16, the Sellers undertake to use their best endeavours to ensure that the Purchaser indemnifies GlaxoSmithKline for any Liabilities borne by GlaxoSmithKline in connection with the JV Awards.  172


Schedule 8 Employee Benefits In this Schedule 8:  Employee Benefits means benefits to or in respect of any current or former employee, including without limitation, any pension, early retirement, disability, death benefit, long service awards, termination indemnity (such as Italian TFR) or post-retirement medical benefits or deferred compensation linked to retirement, disability or death benefits or old age part-time benefits (such as German ATZ) and jubilee payments;  Employee Benefit Liabilities means liabilities and obligations (whether funded or unfunded) in respect of any employee benefit promise, scheme, plan, fund, program, policy, practice or other individual or collective arrangement providing Employee Benefits;  Oncology Funding Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits which are similar or comparable to benefits in the same country which are Transferred Employee Benefits under the Oncology Sale and Purchase Agreement (the Equivalent Oncology Benefits), the method and assumptions used under the Oncology Sale and Purchase Agreement to value those Equivalent Oncology Benefits.   For the avoidance of doubt, the Oncology Funding Assumptions are only available in respect of Transferred Employee Benefits for which there are Equivalent Oncology Benefits;  Other Party means (i) where GlaxoSmithKline is the Seller, Novartis and (ii) where Novartis is the Seller, GlaxoSmithKline;  Other Party Group means (i) where GlaxoSmithKline is the Other Party, GlaxoSmithKlines Group and (ii) where Novartis is the Other Party, Novartiss Group;  Other Party Funding Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, where a member of the Other Party Group provides, in the same country, a similar or comparable benefit programme to the programme to which the Transferred Employee Benefits relate (regardless of differences in the terms of entitlement of accrual etc.), and there is a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Agreement to pre-fund or externally fund those similar or comparable benefits to a funding target which is determined by reference to a method and assumptions other than IFRS (such as would, for example, be the case in relation to UK HMRC-registered defined benefit pension obligations), then that method and those assumptions as in force in relation to those similar or comparable benefits immediately prior to the date of this Agreement (so, taking the example of UK defined benefit obligations, this would be the method and assumptions used to determine the relevant plans technical provisions as at the date of this Agreement  regardless of whether the plan is in fact fully funded on that basis at any relevant time);  Other Party IFRS Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, where a member of the Other Party Group provides, in the same country, a similar or comparable benefit programme to the programme to which the Transferred Employee Benefits relate (regardless of differences in the terms of entitlement of accrual etc.), the method and assumptions used most recently prior to the date of this Agreement to value those similar or  173


comparable benefits by the Other Party Group (or any relevant member thereof) for IFRS accounting purposes;  Partial Liquidation Longstop Date means, in relation to each of Novartis Pensionskasse 1, Novartis Pensionskasse 2 and Kaderkasse Novartis and any similar plans operated by GlaxoSmithKline in Switzerland, the earlier of: (i) the date (if any) after Closing on which the plan undergoes partial liquidation; and (ii) 12 months after Closing;  Seller Funding Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, if there is a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Agreement to pre-fund or externally fund those Transferred Employee Benefits to a funding target which is determined by reference to a method and assumptions other than IFRS (such as would, for example, be the case in relation to UK HMRC-registered defined benefit pension obligations), then that method and those assumptions as in force in relation to those Transferred Employee Benefits immediately prior to the date of this Agreement (so, taking the example of UK defined benefit obligations, this would be the method and assumptions used to determine the relevant plans technical provisions as at the date of this Agreement  regardless of whether the plan is in fact fully funded on that basis at any relevant time);  Seller IFRS Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, the method and assumptions used by the Sellers Group (or the most relevant member thereof) most recently prior to the date of this Agreement to value those Transferred Employee Benefits for IFRS accounting purposes;  Swiss Actuary means an actuary: (a) who can reasonably be viewed: (i) as independent of both the Other Party and each Seller; and (ii) as familiar with Swiss pension issues; and (b) whom the Other Party and each Seller have agreed should be jointly appointed by them for the purposes of determining the Swiss Assumptions or who in default of such agreement has been appointed by the Swiss Association of Actuaries or other industry body of actuaries in Switzerland as agreed by each Seller and the Other Party;  Swiss Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits in Switzerland, Novartiss Seller IFRS Assumptions adjusted:  (i)by replacing  other than in so far as the Transferred Employee Benefits relate to any Swiss Potential Early Retirees  any assumed cash balance annuity conversion rate in Novartiss Seller IFRS Assumptions with a conversion rate which the Swiss Actuary certifies to GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis as representing a reasonable estimate of the likely effective overall blended conversion rate which will apply in relation to the Transferred Employee Benefits in question, having regard to the changes to the rate which can (having regard to longevity projections, legal and governance constraints around Swiss pension structures and such other matters as the Swiss Actuary considers relevant) in the Swiss Actuarys opinion reasonably be expected to occur during the expected service lives of the Transferred Employees to whom the Transferred Employee Benefits relate, and weighting the impact of those changes by reference to the ages of the relevant employees (and so the extent to which the changes will in fact operate to reduce the effective liability on  GlaxoSmithKline); and  174


(ii)by removing any reserve for death or disability benefits to the extent that the Swiss Actuary certifies to GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis that it constitutes a reserve for liabilities to and in respect of the relevant Transferred Employees which could reasonably be externally insured by the Purchasers Group without introducing a new ongoing cost on the Purchasers Group which was not reflected in Novartiss ongoing cost base prior to the date of this Agreement; and  Swiss Potential Early Retirees means those Transferred Employees employed in Switzerland who have grandfathered entitlements to a wholly or partly unreduced early retirement pension under the old final salary scheme operated by Novartis in Switzerland which closed at the end of 2010; and  Vaccines Funding Assumptions means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits which are similar or comparable to benefits in the same country which are Transferred Employee Benefits under the Vaccines Sale and Purchase Agreement (the Equivalent Vaccines Benefits), the method and assumptions used under the Vaccines Sale and Purchase Agreement to value those Equivalent Vaccines Benefits.   For the avoidance of doubt, the Vaccines Funding Assumptions are only available in respect of Transferred Employee Benefits for which there are Equivalent Vaccines Benefits.  For the purposes of each of the Other Party Funding Assumptions, the Other Party IFRS Assumptions, the Seller Funding Assumptions, the Seller IFRS Assumptions,  the Swiss Assumptions (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Vaccines Funding Assumptions and the Oncology Funding Assumptions), any economic and financial assumptions which are based (whether expressly or implicitly) on yields, rates or indices shall be updated for the purposes of such definitions to take account of those yields, rates or indices as at Closing (or the latest practicable time prior to Closing).  1Except to the extent otherwise requested by each Seller and expressly agreed by the Other Party before Closing (such Other Party agreement not to be unreasonably withheld to the extent that it is not reasonably possible for such Seller  or its Affiliates to retain the relevant Employee Benefit Liabilities  for example, where a relevant Target Group Company operates its own standalone arrangement, liability for which cannot lawfully be assumed by another member of such Sellers Group, or where liability unavoidably transfers by operation of law under European Council Directive 2001/23/EC or its local implementing legislation), any Employee Benefit Liabilities in respect of service in the relevant Target Group or with any member of such Sellers Group  (including any relevant Target Group Company) or in any plan or arrangement in which any member of such Sellers Group (including any relevant Target Group Company) participates or has participated:  (a)(in the case of a Transferred Employee) prior to Closing; or  (b)(in the case of any other person) at any time,  (together, Pre-Closing EB Liabilities) will stay with or be assumed by such Seller  or its Affiliates (excluding any relevant Target Group Company) and such Seller  shall fully indemnify the Purchaser and its Affiliates (which for the avoidance of doubt in the period  175


from Closing includes any relevant Target Group Company) against any such Employee Benefit Liabilities and against any liabilities and obligations to or in respect of any plan or arrangement for the provision of Employee Benefits in which any member of such Sellers Group (including any relevant Target Group Company) participates or participated prior to Closing.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Other Partys agreement under this paragraph 1 may, if the Other Party so determines, relate only to certain specified categories or tranches of relevant Pre-Closing EB Liabilities under a particular benefit programme (in other words, it does not need to be all or nothing), in which case it is only those specified Pre-Closing EB Liabilities which are excluded from the scope of the Purchasers indemnity entitlement hereunder.  2Where and to the extent that the Other Party agrees under paragraph 1 that any Pre-Closing EB Liabilities may transfer to or remain with the Purchaser and/or its Affiliates (which for the avoidance of doubt in the period from Closing includes any relevant Target Group Company), (such Pre-Closing EB Liabilities being the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities and the benefits to which they relate being the Transferred Employee Benefits), the Purchaser will be compensated in respect of such Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities as set out in the rest of this Schedule 8. Subject to being so compensated but without prejudice to paragraphs 9 and 12, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that its relevant Affiliate shall, assume, with a full discharge for each Seller and its Affiliates, the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. Without limiting the Other Partys obligation not unreasonably to withhold consent under paragraph 1 above, the Seller and the Other Party hereby acknowledge that it would not be reasonably possible for the Seller or its Affiliates to retain those Pre-Closing EB Liabilities which attach to the relevant Target Group Companies in Germany or Switzerland.  So subject to appropriate identification during the period before Closing of such liabilities and to the operation of the compensation mechanism set out in this Schedule 8 they will become Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. The Other Party also acknowledges its agreement to the principle that the post-retirement medical healthcare plan to which it admits US Transferred Employees who immediately before Closing were members of such a plan will take account of periods of employment with the Sellers Group to the extent previously recognised under the equivalent Sellers Group plan for the purposes of determining eligibility, contributions, and vesting; again, therefore, subject to appropriate identification during the period before Closing of such liabilities and to the operation of the compensation mechanism set out in this Schedule 8, they will become Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities.  United Kingdom  For the avoidance of doubt, it is also agreed that, where the Seller is Novartis, no UK defined benefit pension liabilities are to be Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities.  Without limiting paragraph 1, this means that Novartis must prior to Closing procure that no Novartis OTC Group Company is a participating employer under the governing documents, or an employer for the purposes of the Pensions Act 1995 and the Pensions Act 2004, in the Chiron UK Pension Scheme or the Novartis UK Pension Scheme, and Novartis shall under paragraph 1 fully indemnify the Purchaser and its Affiliates (including any Target Group Company) against any liabilities and obligations to or in respect of either of those plans, including any debt under section 75 of the Pensions Act 1995.  176


Switzerland  For the avoidance of doubt, it is also agreed that the Purchaser shall procure that the Swiss Potential Early Retirees will as at Closing be provided with equivalent early retirement benefit provisions under the replacement pension plan to be provided by the Purchaser for and in respect of the Transferred Employees employed in Switzerland under the terms of this Agreement, provided that the Swiss Actuary confirms that such early retirement benefit provisions are allowed for in the Swiss Assumptions.  3The value of the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities shall be determined on employee census data and plan provision as at Closing on the Vaccines Funding Assumptions where available, failing which on the Oncology Funding Assumptions if those are available, failing which on:  (i)in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits in Switzerland, the Swiss Assumptions; and  (ii)in relation to any other Transferred Employee Benefits, the Seller IFRS Assumptions, PROVIDED that if any of the following values is available then that value will be used instead:  (A)if a member of the Other Party Group provides, in the same country, a similar or comparable benefit programme to the programme to which the Transferred Employee Benefits relate (regardless of differences in the terms of entitlement of accrual etc.) and neither (B) nor (C) below is available, the value which is midway between the value based on the Seller IFRS Assumptions and the Other Party IFRS Assumptions;  (B)if (C) below is not available but there is a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Agreement to pre-fund or externally fund the Transferred Employee Benefits to a funding target which would lead to a greater value being placed on the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities than the Seller IFRS Assumptions, the value derived using the Seller Funding Assumptions; and  (C)if there is both: (i) a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Agreement to pre-fund or externally fund the Transferred Employee Benefits to a funding target which would lead to a greater value being placed on the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities than the Seller IFRS Assumptions; and (ii) a member of the Other Party Group provides, in the same country, a similar or comparable benefit programme to the programme to which the Transferred Employee Benefits relate (regardless of differences in the terms of entitlement of accrual etc.), the value which is midway between the value based on the Seller Funding Assumptions and the Other Party Funding Assumptions.  The market value as at Closing of any underlying assets related to the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities which are or are to be transferred as  177


per paragraph 8 below will be deducted from the value of the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities to the extent such assets are or will be available to the Purchaser or its Affiliates to meet such liabilities and the remaining value of the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities (if any) is the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount.  Such determination shall be carried out on a country-by-country basis and, where necessary, on a plan-by-plan basis. For the avoidance of doubt, in relation to Switzerland, the calculation shall, if partial liquidation occurs in relation to any of the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities by the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date, make allowance for the assets thereby transferred assuming that they will be available to meet such liabilities. If any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount is greater than the estimate of such amount determined for the purposes of the Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment (or, where no such estimate was made, greater than zero), each Seller shall pay or procure payment so far as possible, by way of a reduction in the Purchase Consideration paid for the particular part of the Target Group to which the payment relates, an amount equal to the difference (or, where no such estimate was made, such amount) to the Purchaser, or at the request of the Purchaser to an Affiliate of the Purchaser, as compensation for the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. If any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount is less than the estimate of such amount determined for the purposes of the Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment (if any), the Purchaser shall pay an amount equal to the difference to the Seller.  4Each Seller and its Affiliates shall, within 45 days after Closing (or, in the case of Switzerland, 45 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date), provide its actuary, the Swiss Actuary and the actuary chosen by the Purchaser with all relevant plan, asset, assumptions and employee census information needed to calculate the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts in respect of any Transferred Target Business Employees. The actuary chosen by the Seller shall provide the actuary chosen by the Other Party with its calculation of the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts (including, but not limited to, any supporting documentation on which it relied as well as the methodologies it employed in calculating the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts), on a plan-by-plan basis, within 90 days following Closing (or, in the case of Switzerland, 90 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date). The actuary chosen by the Other Party shall review the calculation of the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts of the Sellers actuary within 120 days following Closing (or, in the case of Switzerland, 120 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date). The Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts shall be determined, on a plan-by-plan basis, by mutual agreement between the Seller and the Other Party within 180 days following the Closing Date (or, in the case of Switzerland, 180 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date).  5If such Seller and the Purchaser cannot agree on any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount within the 180-day period referred to in paragraph 4, such parties shall appoint within five days an independent actuary acceptable to both parties, or such actuary shall be selected by the President of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries in the UK if they cannot agree, and the independent actuary thus appointed shall review their calculations and, within 75 days after appointment, render a final and binding decision on the amount of that Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount, and, in making such decision, shall be limited to adopting the position taken by either one of that Seller or the  178


Purchaser. The cost of any independent actuary shall be borne jointly by that Seller and the Purchaser.  6In connection with the procedures referred to in this Schedule 8, each Seller and the Purchaser shall provide each other and the actuaries referred to in this Schedule 8 with access to the relevant business records and other relevant documents and information as may reasonably be requested. All documents, records and information provided for the purposes of this Schedule 8 must be accurate and complete in all material respects.  7Each Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount shall be paid by the relevant Seller so far as possible (by way of a reduction in the Purchase Consideration paid for the particular part of the Target Group to which the payment relates) within 14 days following its final determination. Each Seller may make an accelerated or advance payment at its own discretion (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes in relation to each Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount so much (if any) of the Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment as the Seller notified pursuant to Clause 6.4 was intended to relate to that Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount). Each relevant Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount shall include interest calculated from (and including) the Closing Date to (and including) the date of payment at a rate per annum of LIBOR (but where amounts are prepaid or paid in stages or treated as paid via inclusion in the Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment then the interest will cease to accrue on so much of such Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount as has been paid). Such interest shall accrue from day to day. Any such payment shall be made in US dollars (and any underlying values shall be expressed in US dollars) and any currency other than US dollars shall be converted into US dollars at the exchange rates determined in accordance with Clause 1.13 of this Agreement on the Closing Date.  8To the extent (if any) that there are any Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities which prior to Closing were externally funded by assets held in a trust or other vehicle established for the purposes of meeting such Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities, the Purchaser will, if requested by a Seller before Closing and unless it is not reasonably practicable to do so, establish or nominate a trust or other vehicle which is capable of receiving a transfer of assets from the pre-Closing trust or other vehicle to the extent that such assets relate to such Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities.  9If, within one year of Closing, a Seller or the Purchaser notifies the other that the membership or other benefit data (the Data) used for calculating any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount may be inaccurate, then a Data Dispute has arisen and the following provisions shall apply:  (a)On such notification, the Seller shall procure that its actuary and the Purchaser shall procure that its actuary consult each other with a view to agreeing whether the Data is inaccurate and if so, what the accurate Data should be.  If that Sellers actuary and the Purchasers actuary agree that the Data is inaccurate, they will jointly certify this to be the case and advise on what the accurate Data should be.  The notification is deemed to have occurred on the date of the certification.  (b)If that Sellers actuary and the Purchasers actuary fail to agree whether the Data is inaccurate within 60 days of the notification by one party to the other  179


that the Data may be inaccurate, paragraph 5 shall apply mutatis mutandis.  The notification is deemed to have occurred when the independent actuary advises that the Data is inaccurate and what the accurate Data should be.  (c)On the occurrence of the Data Dispute, such Seller and the Purchaser shall respectively procure that a valuation of the relevant Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount is carried out in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 (mutatis mutandis) but on the basis of the accurate Data as agreed under sub-paragraph (a) or determined under sub-paragraph (b).  (d)If as a consequence of sub-paragraph (c), such Seller has paid to the Purchaser an amount which on the basis of the further valuation is not payable, such amount (the Overpayment) shall be repaid within 21 days of the amount of the Overpayment being agreed or determined. Any such payment shall bear interest calculated from (and including) the date the Overpayment was made to (and including) the date the payment is made in full in accordance with this sub-paragraph (d) at a rate per annum of LIBOR. Such interest shall accrue from day to day.  (e)If as a consequence of sub-paragraph (c), such Seller has not paid to the Purchaser an amount which on the basis of the further valuation is payable, such amount (the Outstanding Amount) shall be paid within 21 days of the amount of the Outstanding Amount being agreed or determined. Any such payment shall bear interest calculated from (and including) the Closing Date to (and including) the date the payment is made in full in accordance with this sub-paragraph (d) at a rate per annum of LIBOR. Such interest shall accrue from day to day.  10Except as otherwise agreed by each Seller, the Purchaser shall where a trust or other vehicle has been established under paragraph 8, procure that all of the assets transferred as envisaged by paragraph 8 are paid into such trust or other vehicle. If, after such payment or transfer, or after payment of an Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount or after making an Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment, the Purchaser and/or its Affiliates achieves a reduction in its liability to any Tax in respect of or in connection with payment or transfer, the Purchaser shall pay to that Seller (for itself and on behalf of the relevant Share Seller or Business Seller, as applicable), within 30 days after the Purchaser would otherwise have been liable to pay the saved Tax, a sum equal to the amount of that Tax reduction so far as possible by way of an increase in the Purchase Consideration in respect of the particular part of the Target Group to which the payment relates.  This paragraph 10 applies for a period of four years following the later of the date on which a transfer of assets is made, or payment of any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount or Estimated Employee Benefit Adjustment is made to the Purchaser.  11Each Seller covenants with the Purchaser to pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to any cost, claim or liability incurred by any member of the Purchasers Group which it is or becomes liable to make on or at any time after Closing by reason of any change or purported change made to the terms of any relevant Transferred Employee Benefits prior to Closing proving to be or have been legally ineffective or by reason of such terms  180


and/or benefits failing to comply with any mandatory legal requirements (excluding any obligation to equalise guaranteed minimum pensions in the United Kingdom). The relevant Seller shall not be liable under this paragraph 11 in respect of any individual claim (or a series of claims arising from similar or identical facts or circumstances) unless the liability in respect of such claim or series of claims exceeds US$100,000. If the Purchaser becomes aware of any fact, matter or circumstance that may give rise to a claim against the relevant Seller under this paragraph 11, the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give notice in writing to the relevant Seller of such facts, matters or circumstances as are then available regarding the potential claim. Failure to give such notice within such period shall not affect the rights of the Purchaser to make a relevant claim under this paragraph 11, except that the relevant Seller shall not be liable for any increase in the amount of such claim arising from such failure. The latest date on which the Purchaser may give notice of a claim under this paragraph 11 is the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date.  12Notwithstanding any general provision to the contrary in Schedule 7 and subject to being compensated in accordance with this Schedule 8, the Purchaser shall admit Transferred Employees in the United States who participated in a post-retirement medical plan immediately prior to Closing to its own post-retirement medical plan. Subject to being compensated in accordance with this Schedule 8, periods of employment with the relevant Sellers Group (including, without limitation, any current or former Affiliate of the relevant Seller, to the extent previously recognised under the applicable benefit plan arrangement provided by the relevant Sellers Group), shall be taken into account for the purposes of determining, as applicable, the eligibility for participation, contributions, and vesting for any employee under such post-retirement medical plan.  13Notwithstanding any general provision to the contrary in Schedule 7, the US Transferred Employees shall, as of the Closing Date, become eligible to participate in a US tax-qualified defined contribution plan to the extent such plan is sponsored by the Purchaser or a relevant member of the Purchasers Group. The Purchaser agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such plan to accept rollovers of the account balances of the US Transferred Employees (including participant loan promissory notes) from the relevant employers tax-qualified retirement plans; provided that (i) the Purchaser will not be required to accept any such rollovers that might result in material liability to the Purchaser or may otherwise cause the relevant plan to cease to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and (ii) the Purchaser will not be required to amend any plan to permit participant loans.  14GlaxoSmithKline covenants to pay Novartis an amount equal to any payment Novartis or any member of Novartiss Group (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Novartis OTC Group Companies  as to which, see paragraph 1 above) is or becomes liable to make on or at any time after Closing to or in respect of any post-retirement benefit plan or arrangement (whether funded or unfunded, including without limitation any occupational pension scheme and any arrangement with only one member) in which the Purchaser, the GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Group Companies or GlaxoSmithKlines Group participates or has at any time participated (each a GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan). This covenant does not apply to liabilities in respect of any arrangement in which Novartis or a member of Novartiss Group participates after Closing. If a financial support direction or contribution notice in respect of a pension scheme under the UK Pensions Act 2004 is received by Novartis or a member of  181


Novartiss Group in respect of a GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan, Novartis shall, within five Business Days notify GlaxoSmithKline of the financial support direction, and will continue to pass on all related correspondence. Subject to that, however, Novartis will not be required to take any positive action in respect of the financial support direction (including entering into any discussion or negotiations with the UK Pensions Regulator or GlaxoSmithKline as to possible financial support arrangements) in order to benefit from the indemnity in respect of the direction or notice in this paragraph 14.  15Novartis covenants to pay GlaxoSmithKline an amount equal to any payment GlaxoSmithKline or any member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Group Companies  as to which see paragraph 1 above) is or becomes liable to make on or at any time after Closing to or in respect of any post-retirement benefit plan or arrangement (whether funded or unfunded, including without limitation any occupational pension scheme and any arrangement with only one member) in which the Purchaser, the Novartis OTC Group Companies or Novartiss Group participates or has at any time participated (each an Novartis Retirement Plan). This covenant does not apply to liabilities in respect of any arrangement in which GlaxoSmithKline or a member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group participates after Closing. If a financial support direction or contribution notice in respect of a pension scheme under the UK Pensions Act 2004 is received by GlaxoSmithKline or a member of GlaxoSmithKlines Group in respect of an Novartis Retirement Plan, GlaxoSmithKline shall, within five Business Days notify Novartis of the financial support direction, and will continue to pass on all related correspondence. Subject to that, however, GlaxoSmithKline will not be required to take any positive action in respect of the financial support direction (including entering into any discussion or negotiations with the UK Pensions Regulator or Novartis as to possible financial support arrangements) in order to benefit from the indemnity in respect of the direction or notice in this paragraph 15.  16If, after Closing, the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group participates in a GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan (as defined in paragraph 14 above), unless otherwise agreed among GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis and the Purchaser, then the parties agree that the mechanism for giving effect to GlaxoSmithKlines commitment at paragraph 1 above to the Purchaser in relation to such plan will be for GlaxoSmithKline to procure that the only amounts (as certified by the actuary to the GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan) which the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group is required to contribute to that GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan will relate to the service of the employees of the Purchaser or any member of the Purchasers Group from and after Closing. The obligation in this paragraph 16 will continue to apply only for so long as Novartis retains a shareholding in the Purchaser.  17By way of exception to the general principle at paragraph 1, where a Transferred Employee in the UK who had joined service with GlaxoSmithKlines Group before 1 April 2005 is made redundant within 24 months of Closing, then the Purchaser shall pay GlaxoSmithKline an amount equal to the cost of applying the Agreed UK Restructuring Arrangement to an employee of the employees actual age at the date he is made redundant, but (unless the employee is prior to his redundancy still actively participating in a GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan) only to so much of the employees benefits in a GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan as were accrued prior to Closing and provided further that the Purchasers aggregate liability under this paragraph in respect of all such  182


Transferred Employees in the UK who are so made redundant is capped at £1,000,000. This cost shall be calculated on a basis consistent with that which is used across the GlaxoSmithKlines Sellers Retained Business for internal cross-charging purposes in relation to the Agreed UK Restructuring Arrangement, and GlaxoSmithKline shall supply the Purchaser with such evidence as the Purchaser may reasonably require to verify that. Subject to receipt of such payment, GlaxoSmithKline shall apply the Agreed UK Restructuring Arrangement to the relevant employees GlaxoSmithKline Retirement Plan benefits. GlaxoSmithKlines commitments under paragraphs 1 and 16 above shall be amended accordingly.  18.The parties agree that where any Transferred Employee has accrued defined contribution benefits prior to Closing in a Sellers Group arrangement then:  (a)that Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to procure the vesting of those benefits (if they would otherwise lapse as a result of Closing);  (b)the parties shall, provided this will not impose unreasonable administrative burdens on the Purchasers Group, co-operate in good faith to procure a transfer of the account balances of such Transferred Employee from that Sellers Group arrangement to a Purchasers Group arrangement; and  (c)for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser will comply with the provisions of paragraph 6.1 of Schedule 7.  183

Schedule 10 VAT  1VAT: Records  1.1Each Seller may, on or before the date of Closing, obtain a direction from the relevant Tax Authority for the retention and preservation by it of any VAT records relating to its period of ownership of the relevant part of the Target Group and, where any such direction is obtained, that Seller shall:  1.1.1preserve the records to which that direction relates in such a manner and for such period as may be required by the direction or by Applicable Law; and  1.1.2allow the Purchaser, upon the Purchaser giving reasonable notice, reasonable access to and copies of such records where reasonably required by the Purchaser for its Tax purposes.  1.2If no such direction as is referred to in paragraph 1.1 above is obtained on or before the date of Closing and any documents in the possession or control of a member of a Sellers Group are required by law to be preserved by the Purchaser, that Seller shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after Closing, deliver such documents to the Purchaser.  2VAT: Going Concern - EU Member States  2.1The Sellers and the Purchaser shall use reasonable endeavours (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the making of an election or application in respect of VAT to any Tax Authority or entering into a written agreement) to secure that, to the extent reasonably possible, the sale of all or any part of the Target Group Businesses, so far as carried on in the European Union, is treated as neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services for the purposes of the laws governing VAT in each relevant member state.  2.2Each Business Seller shall have the right to seek a ruling from the relevant Tax Authority as to whether the sale of all or part of the Target Group Businesses, so far as carried on in the relevant member state, should be treated as neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services for the purposes of the laws governing VAT in that member state and to account for VAT (and accordingly to seek an additional payment from the Purchaser under Clause 3.3.3) in accordance with that ruling. The relevant Seller shall not be obliged to challenge (or to procure that any relevant Business Seller challenges) that ruling unless required to do so by the Purchaser. If the Purchaser wishes to challenge, or to require the relevant Business Seller to challenge, any such ruling it may do so, provided that it bears the full cost of, and agrees to indemnify the relevant Business Seller in respect of any loss arising from or in connection with, that challenge and that such challenge shall not affect the date on which VAT must be paid to the relevant Seller under paragraph 4 below.  2.3Insofar as no ruling has been obtained from a relevant Tax Authority prior to Closing, each Seller shall determine in good faith if (or the extent to which) VAT is payable in respect of the sale of the Target Group Businesses carried on by a member of that  185


Sellers Group and shall be entitled to charge (or not to charge) VAT to the Purchaser in accordance with such determination.  3VAT: Going Concern - non-EU Jurisdictions  3.1To the extent that any state outside the European Union provides for relief or exemption from VAT on the transfer of a business or a company or treats such a transaction as being non-taxable for VAT purposes, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall use reasonable endeavours (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the making of an election or application in respect of VAT to any Tax Authority or entering into a written agreement) to secure such relief, exemption or treatment, to the extent reasonably possible, as regards the sale of all or part of the Target Group Businesses (insofar as the business of the Target Group is carried on in the relevant state) under this Agreement.  3.2The relevant Business Seller shall have the right to seek a ruling from the relevant Tax Authority as to whether the sale of all or part of the Target Group Businesses, so far as the business of the Target Group is carried on in the relevant state, is eligible for a relief or exemption or is otherwise eligible to be treated as non-taxable for the purposes of the laws governing VAT in that state and to account for VAT and accordingly seek an additional payment from the Purchaser under Clause 3.3.3) in accordance with that ruling. The relevant Seller shall not be obliged to challenge (or to procure then the relevant Business Seller challenges) that ruling unless required to do so by the Purchaser. If the Purchaser wishes to challenge, or to require the relevant Business Seller to challenge, any ruling it may do so, provided that it bears the full cost of, and agrees to indemnify the relevant Business Seller in respect of any loss arising from or in connection with, that challenge and that such challenge shall not affect the date on which VAT must be paid to the relevant Seller under paragraph 4 below. Insofar as no ruling has been obtained from a relevant Tax Authority prior to Closing, each Seller shall determine in good faith if (or the extent to which) VAT is payable in respect of the sale of the Target Group Businesses carried on by a member of that Sellers Group and shall be entitled to charge (or not to charge) VAT to the Purchaser in accordance with such determination.  4VAT: Time, Manner and Currency of Payment  4.1Any amounts which the Purchaser is obliged to pay to a Seller under this Agreement in respect of VAT shall be paid by the Purchaser, on its own account or on behalf of another member of the Purchasers Group, to that Seller or to such member of that Sellers Group as that Seller may direct. Such amounts shall be paid in the currency in which the VAT in question must be accounted for to the relevant Tax Authority.  4.2Subject to any provision or express agreement to the contrary, any amounts in respect of VAT payable in any jurisdiction in respect of the transfer at Closing of any of the Target Group Businesses or Shares shall be paid in accordance with paragraph 4.1 above at Closing against production of a valid VAT invoice (or equivalent, if any).  4.3Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall not be liable to account to a Seller or any member of a Sellers Group for or in respect of penalties or interest arising solely from the failure of that Seller or any other member of that Sellers Group to account promptly for VAT to the relevant Tax Authority following that Seller  186


having been placed in the appropriate amount of funds for that purpose by the Purchaser.  187

Schedule 12 Post Closing Adjustments  Part 1 Preparation of Closing Statement  1PREPARATION  1.1No later than 60 days following Closing, each Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a Draft Closing Statement. Prior to such delivery, each Seller shall so far as is practicable consult with the Purchaser with a view to reducing the potential areas of disagreement.  1.2In order to enable each Seller to prepare its Draft Closing Statement, the Purchaser shall keep up-to-date and, subject to reasonable notice, make available to that Sellers representatives and to that Sellers accountants all books and records relating to that Sellers Target Group during normal office hours and co-operate with them with regard to the preparation, review and agreement or determination of that Draft Closing Statement. The Purchaser agrees to make available the services of the employees of that Sellers Target Group to assist that Seller in the preparation, review and agreement or determination of that Draft Closing Statement.  1.3In order to allow the Purchaser to review the Draft Closing Statements, each Seller shall, subject to reasonable notice, make available to the Purchasers representatives and to the Purchasers accountants all books and records relating to the preparation of the relevant Draft Closing Statement during normal office hours and co-operate with them with regard to their review of that Draft Closing Statement. Each Seller agrees to make available the services of its employees and its Affiliates to assist the Purchaser in its review of that Draft Closing Statement.  1.4If the Purchaser does not within 60 days of presentation to it of a Draft Closing Statement give notice to the Seller that produced it that it disagrees with that Draft Closing Statement or any item thereof, such notice stating the reasons for the disagreement in reasonable detail and specifying the adjustments which, in the Purchasers opinion, should be made to that Draft Closing Statement (the Purchasers Disagreement Notice), that Draft Closing Statement shall be final and binding on that Seller and the Purchaser for all purposes.
