legally able, that the Company takes reasonable steps from Completion to implement any such agreed processes and reporting procedures and to provide Novartis external auditors with reasonable access to the Companys external auditors to enable Novartis to finalise its annual reporting procedures if and to the extent required in connection with such agreed processes and procedures.  10.ALLIANCE MARKETS  Alliance Market Distribution Agreements  10.1GSK shall procure that the relevant entity in GSKs Group shall and the Company shall procure that the relevant entity in the Companys Group shall, enter into a distribution agreement in respect of each Alliance Market in the form to be agreed between GSK and Novartis:  (A)in respect of the Novartis Alliance Market Businesses, with effect from the date on which distribution transfers from the relevant Novartis entity to the relevant GSK entity in such Alliance Market in accordance with the TDSA; or  (B)in respect of the GSK Alliance Market Businesses, within 90 days following Completion.

If such notice is given to GSK, GSK shall procure that the payment is made by way of a payment by one holder of the A Shares to subscribe for one deferred ordinary share (other than an A Share or B Share) in the capital of the Company.  On each occasion (if any) that a holder of A Shares is required to subscribe for one deferred ordinary share, immediately after such subscription, Novartis shall procure that one holder of the B Shares subscribes for one deferred ordinary share (other than an A Share or a B Share) in the capital of the Company at nominal value.  11.DIVIDENDS  11.1Subject to clause 11.2, in respect of each Half-Yearly Accounting Period (beginning with the first full Half-Yearly Accounting Period falling after Completion), the Company shall distribute to the Shareholders, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, an  39


amount equal to the aggregate amount of Readily Available Cash held by the Companys Group in excess of the Base Cash Amount on the date on which such dividend is paid.  11.2The Company shall only be required to declare and/or pay dividend(s) in accordance with clause 11.1 to the extent that:  (A)it has sufficient distributable reserves to do so; and  (B)there are no amounts outstanding (in respect of interest, principal or otherwise) under any Shareholder Loan(s).  11.3The Company shall not declare and/or pay a dividend in respect of any Half-Yearly Accounting Period any later than four months following the end of such Half-Yearly Accounting Period, unless otherwise agreed between the parties.  11.4Dividends shall be paid in Sterling.  All dividends in respect of any Half-Yearly Accounting Period shall be paid to all the Shareholders on the same day and by way of inter-bank transfer or by other electronic means for same day value directly to an account with a bank or other financial institution (or other organisations operating deposit accounts) as notified in writing by the relevant Shareholder to the Company.  In the absence of any such notification, the Company shall hold the amount of the relevant dividend on trust for the relevant Shareholder for a period of 12 months.  In the event that no such notification is given within such 12 month period, the Company shall cease to hold the amount of such dividend on trust for the relevant Shareholder and shall be entitled to treat the amount of such dividend as its own.  11.5The Shareholders and the Company shall cooperate and take such steps as are reasonably required in connection with distributable reserves planning for the Company and its Group, and they confirm that they intend to seek to maximise the amount of the dividends payable pursuant to clause 11.1 in respect of any Half-Yearly Accounting Period, subject always to the best interests of the Company and its Group.  Other than in compliance with the provisions of this agreement, no party to this agreement shall:  (A)employ (or procure the employing of) any device or technique; or  (B)participate (or procure participation) in any transaction or arrangement,  in each case with the purpose of circumventing or restricting the amount of the dividends payable by the Company pursuant to clause 11.1 (including by seeking to minimise Readily Available Cash for that purpose).  11.6The Company shall instruct its auditors to report on the distributable reserves position of the Company at the same time as they sign their report on the Accounts.  11.7The Company shall, so far as it is legally able, procure that (and the Shareholders shall, so far as they are legally able, exercise their rights in relation to the Company to procure that) all resolutions for the declaration or payment of dividends or other payments  40


consistent with this clause 11 are duly passed by the relevant members of the Companys Group and the Board (as applicable).  12.PRESENTATIONAL CURRENCY  The presentational currency of the Company shall be Sterling.  The presentational currency of all other members of the Companys Group shall be as determined by the Board from time to time.  13.FUNDING AND CASH MANAGEMENT  13.1The parties intend that the Companys Group will always maintain a level of Readily Available Cash at or above the Base Cash Amount.  13.2In the event that the Board determines that the Companys Group requires funds (for the purposes of working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditure or otherwise) in excess of any funding it then currently has in place and other than in relation to a matter that would require the consent of Novartis pursuant to clause 4.1 (Reserved Matters), such funds (the Required Funds) will be requested by the Company from the Shareholders in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.  13.3The Novartis Shareholders shall notify the Company in writing within 10 Business Days of receipt of any request from the Company pursuant to clause 13.2 as to whether or not they (or any other member of their Wholly-Owned Group) are willing to fund their aggregate proportionate amount of the Required Funds as set out in such request, there being no obligation on the Novartis Shareholders to do so.  In the event the Novartis Shareholders fail to so notify the Company within that time, the Novartis Shareholders shall be deemed to have notified the Company that neither they nor any member of their Wholly-Owned Group are willing to fund their proportionate amount of the Required Funds as set out in the relevant request from the Company pursuant to clause 13.2.  13.4In the event that the Novartis Shareholders:  (A)notify the Company that they (or a member of their Wholly-Owned Group) are willing to fund their proportionate amount of the Required Funds requested from the Shareholders pursuant to the relevant request referred to in clause 13.2, the Novartis Shareholders (or such other member of their Wholly-Owned Group) together shall, and the GSK Shareholders (or such other member of their Wholly-Owned Group) together shall, each enter into a loan agreement with the Company in respect of the relevant portion of such Required Funds in accordance with Schedule 5 (Shareholder Loans: Terms) (any such loans being Joint Shareholder Loans); or  (B)notify (or are deemed to have notified) the Company that they are not willing to fund their proportionate amount of the Required Funds, the GSK Shareholders (or any other member of their Wholly-Owned Group) shall fund the entirety of the Required Funds requested from the Shareholders pursuant to the relevant request referred to in clause 13.2 and the GSK Shareholders (or such other member of their Wholly-Owned Group) shall together enter into a loan  41


agreement with the Company in respect of the entirety of the Required Funds on terms and conditions set out in Schedule 5 (Shareholder Loans: Terms) (any such loan being a GSK Shareholder Loan).  13.5The total amount of all Shareholder Loans outstanding at any given time shall be aggregated and repayments made to each Shareholder (or members of their Wholly-Owned Groups, as relevant) pro rata in proportion to the amount (principal and interest) owed to each Shareholder (or members of their Wholly-Owned Groups, as relevant) in relation to the aggregate amount of the Shareholder Loans.  13.6The Board shall determine the amount of Readily Available Cash held by the Companys Group promptly following the finalisation of the Half-Yearly Accounts and of the Accounts and thereafter shall promptly and, in any event, prior to the declaration and/or payment of any dividend in respect of the relevant Half-Yearly Accounting Period pursuant to clause 11.1 (Dividends), first apply any amount of Readily Available Cash above the Base Cash Amount in repayment of any amounts outstanding under any Shareholder Loans on the basis set out in clause 13.5.  13.7The parties shall procure that GSK shall be permitted, for treasury purposes, to manage the Cash of the Companys Group on a consolidated basis with the Cash of GSKs Group on arms length terms provided that: (i) internal records are kept so that the Cash of the Companys Group is readily capable of calculation and assessment; (ii) the Cash of the Companys Group shall otherwise be managed on a basis consistent in all material respects with that on which the Cash of GSKs Group is managed; and (iii) GSKs Group retains a rating of at least BBB from Standard and Poors and Baa2 from Moodys.  13.8Each of Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline shall, and shall procure that the relevant members of its Wholly-Owned Group shall, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any member of Novartis Wholly-Owned Group or GlaxoSmithKlines Wholly-Owned Group (as applicable) which enters into a loan agreement with the Company under clause 13.4(A) or 13.4(B) (as the case may be) is a person to which the Company will, under applicable law and relevant Tax Authority published practice as at the date of entry into such loan agreement, be entitled to make payments of interest without withholding or deduction for or on account of Tax (and for this purpose, it shall be assumed that any necessary procedural formalities are satisfied).  This clause 13.8 is without prejudice to the right of the Novartis Shareholders under clause 13.3 to refuse or to fail to respond to a request made under clause 13.2.  14.TAXATION  Surrenders of Tax losses  14.1If, in respect of any accounting period ending after Completion, any member of GSKs Group or Novartis Group (as the case may be) has available an amount which it is able and willing to surrender by way of Consortium Relief (or otherwise) to the Company or to any member of the Companys Group, and, in respect of its corresponding accounting period, the Company or such member of the Companys Group (as the case may be) (the claimant company) is able to utilise all or any part of such amount, then that  42


member of GSKs Group or Novartis Group (as the case may be) which has such amount available (the surrendering company) shall be permitted to surrender it, or any part of it, to the claimant company, and the claimant company shall be obliged to accept such surrender, to the extent that the claimant company is able to utilise it, and the claimant company shall pay to the surrendering company such amount for that surrender as is equal to the Payment Amount, payable on the date or dates that the claimant company would have been liable for an amount of Tax but for that surrender (and, where there is more than one such date, in proportion to the amounts of Tax which would have been payable on each such date).  14.2In the event that any payment of a Payment Amount is made in respect of any surrender of Consortium Relief by a member of GSKs Group or Novartis Group under clause 14.1, and Tax falls nevertheless to be charged in respect of the taxable profits that the relevant surrender was intended to relieve from such Tax (whether as a result of a Tax Authority refusing to allow Consortium Relief or subsequently withdrawing Consortium Relief in respect of the relevant claim, or for any other reason whatsoever), GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) shall procure that the surrendering company in respect of the relevant surrender shall forthwith repay to the claimant company such part of the Payment Amount as is attributable to the element of the surrender that did not have the effect of relieving from Tax the taxable profits intended to be relieved by virtue of the surrender together with interest at the rate or rates applicable to underpaid corporation tax for the period from payment to repayment of the relevant part of the Payment Amount.  Transfer pricing  14.3If and to the extent that a transfer pricing adjustment applies to adjust the profits and losses of the Company or any member of its Group after Completion and such transfer pricing adjustment:  (A)arises in respect of any transaction or series of transactions entered into between the Company (or any other member of its Group) and GSK (or any person connected with GSK) or Novartis (or any person connected with Novartis); and  (B)leads or may lead to a liability or an increased liability to Tax of the Company or a member of its Group,  then:  (i)GSK agrees (where such transaction or series of transactions were entered into with GSK or any person connected with GSK) to make a payment to the Company or the relevant member of the Companys Group equal (on an after Tax basis) to such liability, or such increase in a liability, to Tax; and  (ii)Novartis agrees (where such transaction or series of transactions were entered into with Novartis or any person connected with Novartis) to make a payment to the Company or the relevant member of the  43


Companys Group equal (on an after Tax basis) to such liability, or such increase in a liability, to Tax.  14.4If and to the extent that GSK (or any person connected with GSK) or Novartis (or any person connected with Novartis) has or may have an increased liability to Tax as a result of a transfer pricing adjustment in respect of which the Company or any member of the Companys Group is able to claim a compensating adjustment, then:  (A)the Company shall, or shall procure that the relevant member of the Companys Group shall, if GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) so requests, claim the compensating adjustment; and  (B)if the Company (or the relevant member of the Companys Group) receives or obtains a payment or other Relief which comprises or would not have arisen but for such compensating adjustment, then the lesser of the amount received or the amount that the person concerned will save by virtue of the payment or other Relief (less any reasonable costs of recovering or obtaining such payment or other Relief and any Tax actually suffered thereon) shall be paid by the Company (or the relevant member of the Companys Group) by way of balancing payment to GSK (or the relevant person connected with GSK) or Novartis (or the relevant person connected with Novartis), as the case may be.  14.5A balancing payment to be made under clause 14.4 shall be made (i) within ten Business Days from the date on which notice setting out the amount due is received by the Company or relevant member of the Companys Group from GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) or, if later, (ii) in the case of a repayment of any Tax, five Business Days after such repayment is received by the Company or the relevant member of the Companys Group, or in the case of the receipt of any other Relief, the date which is two Business Days prior to the last day on which the Company or the relevant member of the Companys Group would have been due to make an actual payment of Tax had it not been for such Relief.  Secondary tax liabilities  14.6Subject to the provisions of clause 14.8, GSK covenants with the Company to pay to the Company an amount equal (on an after Tax basis) to:  (A)any payment of Tax for which any member of the Companys Group is liable that would not have arisen but for the failure of any member of GSKs Group to discharge that Tax; and  (B)any out-of-pocket costs or expenses reasonably and properly incurred by a member of the Companys Group solely and directly in connection with any payment of Taxation as is referred to in clause 14.6(A) or in connection with any action taken in avoiding, resisting or settling any such payment of Taxation or in connection with taking or defending any action under this clause 14.6.  14.7Subject to the provisions of clause 14.8, Novartis covenants with the Company to pay to the Company an amount equal (on an after Tax basis) to:  44


(A)any payment of Tax for which any member of the Companys Group is liable that would not have arisen but for the failure of any member of Novartis Group to discharge that Tax; and  (B)any out-of-pocket costs or expenses reasonably and properly incurred by a member of the Companys Group solely and directly in connection with any payment of Taxation as is referred to in clause 14.7(A) or in connection with any action taken in avoiding, resisting or settling any such payment of Taxation or in connection with taking or defending any action under this clause 14.7.  14.8The covenants contained in clauses 14.6 and 14.7 shall not extend to any liability otherwise falling therein to the extent that:  (A)the liability is interest, a penalty or a fine arising from a failure to pay Tax to a Tax Authority within a reasonable time after GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) has made a payment of an amount in respect of that liability to Tax under clauses 14.6 or 14.7 (as the case may be);  (B)the liability is paid or discharged by a person other than a member of the Companys Group (except where a member of the Companys Group is required to reimburse such person for such payment or discharge) or is otherwise compensated for without cost to any member of the Companys Group; or  (C)a claim in respect of the liability can be made against GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) under clause 2 of the Tax Covenant.  14.9If any member of the Companys Group receives any Secondary Liability Claim, the Company shall give notice in writing, or procure that notice in writing is given, to GSK and Novartis as soon as is reasonably practicable.  If GSK (in the case of a Secondary Liability Claim for which it may be liable) or Novartis (in the case of a Secondary Liability Claim for which it may be liable) shall indemnify the Company and any relevant member of the Companys Group to the Companys reasonable satisfaction against any liabilities, costs, damages, Tax, losses or expenses which may be incurred thereby, the Company shall, and shall procure that any relevant member of its Group shall, take such reasonable action as GSK (in the case of a Secondary Liability Claim for which it may be liable) or Novartis (in the case of a Secondary Liability Claim for which it may be liable) may by written notice request to dispute, resist or compromise such Secondary Liability Claim.  Structure and timing of indemnity payments  14.10A payment to be made by GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) under clauses 14.3, 14.6, or 14.7 shall be made (i) subject to clause 14.11, within ten Business Days from the date on which notice setting out the amount due is received by GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) from the Company or a member of the Companys Group or, if later, (ii) on the date which is two Business Days prior to the last date on which that payment of Tax may be made in order to avoid incurring a liability to interest or penalties.  45


14.11Where it is agreed or determined that an amount is payable by GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) to the Company or to another member of the Companys Group pursuant to clauses 14.3, 14.6 or 14.7, GSK, Novartis and the Company 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 the obligation to pay the amount so claimed in an efficient manner that does not prejudice the interests of the Companys Group (which may involve, by way of example only, the GSK Shareholders or an Novartis Shareholders, as the case may be, subscribing for deferred shares in the Company or making an additional contribution to the Company in respect of shares in the Company which continue to be held by those persons).  If GSK, Novartis and the Company fail to agree on any particular manner of payment during the course of such consultations (but not before), the party which is liable to make the payment under clauses 14.3, 14.6 or 14.7 shall make that payment in Cash to the person entitled to it in accordance with clause 14.10.  14.12At any time when a GSK Shareholder is resident in the United States for Tax purposes, a proposed change to the entity classification of each member of the Companys Group (other than the Company) for US federal income tax purposes may be effected only after good faith negotiations, for a reasonable period, between the GSK Shareholders and the Novartis Shareholders, as to whether it is appropriate to make the proposed change.  Any such negotiations shall take into account the impact (if any) which that change in entity classification is reasonably likely to have on the US federal income tax position of GSKs Group and of Novartis Group.  Novartis Nominated Tax Representative  14.13The Company shall procure that the CFO, and any other relevant members of Executive Management, shall consult in good faith with the Novartis Nominated Tax Representative (if any) in relation to the development of and any significant changes to the Tax strategy of the Companys Group.

Once a Put Exercise Notice is served in accordance with this agreement, that Put Exercise Notice shall be irrevocable and may not be amended.  20.3The Novartis Shareholders shall only be permitted to serve a Put Exercise Notice under clause 20.2 in respect of B Shares representing:  (A)in any first Tranche:  (i)7.5 per cent. of the Shares; or  57


(ii)36.5 per cent. of the Shares (or such other amount as is, at that time, equal to 100% of the Novartis Shareholders B Shares);  (B)in any second Tranche:  (i)7.5 per cent. of the Shares; or  (ii)29 per cent. of the Shares (or such other amount as is, at that time, equal to 100% of the Novartis Shareholders B Shares);  (C)in any third Tranche:  (i)7.5 per cent. of the Shares; or  (ii)21.5 per cent. of the Shares (or such other amount as is, at that time, equal to 100% of the Novartis Shareholders B Shares); and  (D)in any fourth Tranche, 14 per cent. of the Shares (or such other amount as is, at that time, equal to 100% of the Novartis Shareholders B Shares),  in each case, with the B Shares the subject of such Put Exercise Notice being the Put Shares, the percentage of the Shares represented by the Put Shares being the Tranche Percentage and any Tranche representing less than 100% of the Novartis Shareholders remaining B Shares at that time being a Partial Put.  Any Put Exercise Notice must state the percentage of the Shares that the Novartis Shareholders are exercising their Put Option in relation to, being one of those set out in clauses 20.3(A) to 20.4(D) (inclusive).  20.4If a Put Exercise Notice is served in accordance with clause 20.2, in respect of a Partial Put, prior to the date falling six years following the Completion Date, the next Put Exercise Notice (if any) shall not be served at any time during the period of 18 months following that prior Put Exercise Notice Date.  20.5Subject to clause 20.4, if a Put Exercise Notice is served in accordance with clause 20.2, in respect of a Partial Put, after the date falling six years following the Completion Date, the next Put Exercise Notice (if any) shall not be served at any time during the period of 12 months following that prior Put Exercise Notice Date.  Put Option Price  20.6The price payable at the Put Option Completion Date for the relevant Put Shares (the Put Option Price) shall be the Pounds Sterling amount calculated by multiplying:  (A)the Put Option Market Value (which shall be determined in accordance with Schedule 3 (Price Determination)); and  (B)the Tranche Percentage.  58


The Put Option Price shall be adjusted after Put Option Completion pursuant to clause 20.12(A) and such adjusted amount shall be adopted for all tax reporting purposes.  The Put Option Price shall be payable in Pounds Sterling in accordance with the provisions of clause 22.2(B) (Completion of Share Transfers) on the Put Option Completion Date.  Prior to Put Option Completion, GSK and Novartis may discuss between them (acting in good faith) the possibility of the Put Option Price being paid in a different currency to Pounds Sterling, but nothing in this clause 20.6 shall bind them to reaching an agreement in respect of the same.  Put Option Completion  20.7The parties shall cooperate with each other (acting reasonably) and use all reasonable endeavours to effect completion of the Put Option in respect of any Put Shares (Put Option Completion) as soon as reasonably practicable following the determination of the Put Option Market Value and the satisfaction of any Put Option Conditions.  In any event, Put Option Completion shall occur [***] (the date of Put Option Completion being the Put Option Completion Date).  Put Option Completion shall occur in accordance with clause 22 (Completion of Share Transfers).  At Put Option Completion:  (A)the GSK Shareholders shall pay the Put Option Price to the Novartis Shareholders in Pounds Sterling in accordance with the provisions of clause 22.2(B) (Completion of Share Transfers); and  (B)the GSK Shareholders shall or shall procure that the Company shall (as applicable) take such steps as are set out in clause 20.11.  20.8Put Option Completion shall be conditional only upon (i) the obtaining of any anti-trust approvals or consents, (ii) the obtaining of any other legal and/or regulatory approvals or consents, and/or (iii) the obtaining of any shareholder and/or Third Party consents, in any case as are mandatorily required by Law to be obtained prior to the transfer of the relevant Put Shares pursuant to this clause 20 (such conditions being the Put Option Conditions).  20.9The Shareholder Groupings shall (and shall procure that each other relevant member of their respective Groups shall) cooperate with one another (acting reasonably) and shall each take all steps (which they are lawfully able to take) as are necessary in order to satisfy any Put Option Conditions as soon as reasonably practicable following the relevant Put Exercise Notice Date (save only where any such step would have a material adverse effect on their respective Group).  Effect of Put Option Completion  20.10If the Novartis Shareholders exercise the Put Option in more than one Tranche pursuant to clause 20.3, then, without prejudice to clause 6.7 (Shareholder Appointments):  (A)with effect from Put Option Completion in respect of any second Tranche pursuant to clause 20.3(B)(i) (resulting in the Novartis Shareholders then holding B Shares representing 21.5 per cent. of the Shares), the number of Directors that the First Novartis Shareholder shall be entitled to nominate in  59


accordance with clause 6.2 shall be reduced to a maximum number of three Directors out of a maximum of ten Directors and clauses 6.1 and 6.2 shall be deemed to have been amended accordingly; and  (B)with effect from Put Option Completion in respect of any third Tranche pursuant to clause 20.3(C)(i) (resulting in the Novartis Shareholders then holding B Shares representing 14 per cent. of the Shares), the number of Directors that the First Novartis Shareholder shall be entitled to nominate in accordance with clause 6.2 shall be reduced to a maximum number of one Director out of a maximum of eight Directors and clauses 6.1 and 6.2 shall be deemed to have been amended accordingly,  and the First Novartis Shareholder shall procure that any one (in the case of clause 20.10(A)) or any two (in the case of clause 20.10(B)) of the B Directors each resigns from his or her office of Director on the relevant Put Option Completion Date and each waives any and all rights he or she has against the Company and/or any other member of its Group, and clause 6.3 shall apply accordingly; and  (C)with effect from Put Option Completion in respect of any third Tranche pursuant to clause 20.3(C)(i) (resulting in the Novartis Shareholders then holding B Shares representing 14 per cent. of the Shares), the provisions of each of clauses 4.1(D), 4.1(H), 4.1(J), 4.1(K), 4.1(L), 4.1(M), 4.1(N), 4.1(O), 4.1(P), 4.1(Q) (Reserved Matters) (in relation to each of 4.1(N) to 4.1(Q) (inclusive), only to the extent that any action listed in such clause is not reasonably likely to have an adverse impact on the Novartis Shareholders on or after Put Option Completion in respect of any third Tranche), 4.1(R), 4.1(S), 4.1(T),4.1(U), 4.1(V), 4.1(W) and 4.1(X) (Reserved Matters) shall cease to have any force and effect.  Funding and dividends: special arrangements  20.11At Put Option Completion, the GSK Shareholders shall procure that the Company shall apply any Readily Available Cash in excess of the Base Cash Amount as shown in the Pre-Put Quarterly Balance Sheet (such amount being, the Put Excess Cash) as follows:  (A)if there is at least one GSK Shareholder Loan and two Joint Shareholder Loans outstanding at that time, the Put Excess Cash shall be applied up to the total drawn amount of the Shareholder Loans (or, if lower, the total amount of the Put Excess Cash) and shall be allocated between the aggregate amount of the GSK Shareholder Loan(s) and the aggregate amount of the Joint Shareholders Loans in proportion to the amount that such GSK Shareholder Loan(s) and Joint Shareholder Loans represent to the aggregate amount of all of the Shareholder Loans and accordingly shall be used to repay such Shareholder Loans in accordance with clauses 20.11(C) and 20.11(D);  (B)in the event that there are only GSK Shareholder Loan(s) or only Joint Shareholders Loans, the Put Excess Cash shall be applied up to the total drawn amount of such GSK Shareholder Loan(s) or Joint Shareholder Loans as the  60


case may be (or, if lower, the total amount of the Put Excess Cash) and shall be allocated to and used to repay such GSK Shareholder Loan(s) or Joint Shareholder Loans (as the case may be) in accordance with clauses 20.11(C) and 20.11(D);  (C)in respect of any amount of the Put Excess Cash that has been allocated to any GSK Shareholder Loan(s) in accordance with clauses 20.11(A) or 20.11(B), the Company shall use such Put Excess Cash to repay such GSK Shareholder Loan(s) to the extent of such Put Excess Cash;  (D)in respect of any amount of the Put Excess Cash that has been allocated to any Joint Shareholder Loans in accordance with clauses 20.11(A) or 20.11(B)(such amount being, the JSL Repayment Amount), the Company shall use the JSL Repayment Amount to repay such Joint Shareholder Loans to the extent of such JSL Repayment Amount as follows:  (i)it shall repay to the GSK Shareholders the amount resulting from: (i) the JSL Repayment Amount multiplied by the same percentage as the aggregate of their respective Percentage Interests; minus (ii) if the JSL Repayment Amount is less than aggregate amount of the Joint Shareholder Loans (the amount of such shortfall being, the JSL Shortfall), the JSL Shortfall multiplied by the same percentage as the relevant Tranche Percentage (the JSL Rebalancing Amount) (and provided that if that amount is a negative amount then the GSK Shareholders shall provide additional funding to the Company equal to that negative amount by way of an increase to their portion of the Joint Shareholder Loans to ensure that the Novartis Shareholders receive the JSL Rebalancing Amount at Put Option Completion pursuant to (ii) below); and  (ii)it shall repay to the Novartis Shareholders an amount equal to: (i) the JSL Repayment Amount multiplied by the same percentage as the aggregate of their respective Percentage Interests; plus (ii) if there is a JSL Shortfall, the JSL Rebalancing Amount; and  (E)if the amount outstanding under the Shareholder Loans is less than the Put Excess Cash, such that following the repayments referred to in clauses 20.11(A) to 20.11(D) there is still some Put Excess Cash remaining, the Company shall distribute to the Shareholders, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, an amount equal to such remaining Put Excess Cash to the extent that it has sufficient distributable reserves to do so.  For the avoidance of doubt, references to Percentage Interests in clause 20.11(D) above are to the pre-Put Option Completion Percentage Interests of the relevant party.  True-up following Put Option Completion  20.12As soon as reasonably practicable and, in any event, within 45 Business Days following any Put Option Completion Date, the Company shall (acting in good faith) prepare (in  61


accordance with the Accounting Policies) (a) an audited consolidated balance sheet for the Company as at the Put Option Completion Date showing the same line items as the Pre-Put Quarterly Balance Sheet (the Put Closing Balance Sheet); and (b) an audited adjusted version of the Put Closing Balance Sheet (the Adjusted Put Closing Balance Sheet) showing the same adjustments for Trapped Cash and Net Shareholder Loans as are set out (in respect of the Valuation Balance Sheet) in paragraph 6 of Schedule 3 (Price Determination).  Within 10 Business Days following the provision of the Put Closing Balance Sheet and the Adjusted Put Closing Balance Sheet:  (A)if the aggregate amount shown on the Adjusted Put Closing Balance Sheet in respect of Net Debt is:  (i)less than the amount of the Net Debt shown on the Valuation Balance Sheet then the GSK Shareholders shall pay to the Novartis Shareholders an amount equal in Pounds Sterling to the difference multiplied by the relevant Tranche Percentage; or  (ii)greater than the amount of the Net Debt shown on the Valuation Balance Sheet then the Novartis Shareholders shall pay to the GSK Shareholders an amount equal in Pounds Sterling to the difference multiplied by the relevant Tranche Percentage;  (B)if the amount of Put Excess Cash actually repaid pursuant to Shareholder Loans and/or distributed to the Shareholders pursuant to clause 20.11 at that Put Option Completion would have been different had the Put Closing Balance Sheet been used for that purpose, then:  (i)if the amount of Put Excess Cash so repaid or distributed would have been less, the GSK Shareholders and the Novartis Shareholders shall make such payments to the Company as are necessary to put the Company into the position that it would have been in had the Put Closing Balance Sheet been used for that purpose (and, if applicable, the  Company shall repay to the GSK Shareholders any amount provided to the Company by way of additional funding pursuant to clause 20.11(D)(i)); or  (ii)if the amount of Put Excess Cash so repaid or distributed would have been greater, the Company shall make such repayment or distributions as would otherwise have been made pursuant to clause 20.11 had the Put Closing Balance Sheet been used for that purpose,  and, in each case, the relevant Shareholder Loan balances shall be readjusted accordingly if necessary to reflect such payments.  For the purposes of this clause 20.12, Net Debt means the amount calculated as Borrowings plus Net Shareholder Loans minus Trapped Cash.  62

This guarantee is unconditional and irrevocable,  with each of GSK and Novartis being, a Guarantor.  31.2The guarantees set out in clause 31.1:  (A)are continuing guarantees.  No payment or other settlement will discharge a Guarantors obligations until the obligations of all of its Guaranteed Parties have been discharged in full;  (B)are in addition to, and independent of, any other guarantee or security;  (C)may be enforced before any steps are taken against the relevant Guaranteed Party or under any other guarantee or security;  (D)will only be discharged by the discharge in full of the obligations of the relevant Guarantors Guaranteed Parties; and  (E)will not be discharged by any other action, omission or fact.  31.3A Guarantors obligations shall, therefore, not be affected by:  (A)the obligations of any of its Guaranteed Parties being or becoming void, invalid, illegal or unenforceable;  (B)any change, waiver or release of the obligations of any of its Guaranteed Parties;  (C)any concession or time being given to any of its Guaranteed Parties;  (D)the winding-up or re-organisation of any of its Guaranteed Parties;  (E)any change in the condition, nature or status of any of its Guaranteed Parties;  77


(F)any of the above events occurring in relation to another guarantor or provider of security in relation to the obligations of any of its Guaranteed Parties;  (G)any failure to take, retain or enforce any other guarantee or security;  (H)any circumstances affecting or preventing recovery of amounts expressed to be due by any of its Guaranteed Parties; or  (I)any other matter which might discharge that Guarantor.  31.4Any receipt from any person other than that Guarantor shall reduce the outstanding balance only to the extent of the amount received.  31.5Any settlement with, or discharge of, a Guarantor shall be subject to the condition that the settlement or discharge shall be set aside if any prior payment, or any other guarantee or security, in reliance on which that settlement or discharge was made in whole or in part, is set aside, invalidated or reduced.  In this event each Guarantor agrees to reimburse each other party for the value of the payment, guarantee or security which is set aside, invalidated or reduced.  31.6In addition to each Guarantors obligations as guarantor, each Guarantor agrees that any obligation of any of its Guaranteed Parties under this agreement which may not be enforceable against that Guarantor as guarantor shall be enforceable against that Guarantor as though that Guarantor were the principal obligor in respect of the obligation.  31.7In the event that a Guaranteed Party fails to perform or breaches any of its obligations under this agreement, the Guarantor of that Guaranteed Party agrees to indemnify each of the other parties on an after Tax basis for the losses and reasonable expenses (including loss of profit) that party suffers or incurs, or will suffer or incur, as a result.  The Guarantor of that Guaranteed Party also agrees to indemnify each other party on an after Tax basis for all losses and expenses (including loss of profit) arising from any obligation of any of its Guaranteed Parties being or becoming void, invalid, illegal or unenforceable.  31.8The parties agree that:  (A)no Guarantor shall have the benefit of any security in respect of this guarantee and indemnity;  (B)no Guarantor shall:  (i)take the benefit of any right against any of its Guaranteed Parties or any other person in respect of amounts paid under this guarantee and indemnity; or  (ii)claim or exercise against any of its Guaranteed Parties any right to any payment;  78


(C)any other party may request a Guarantor to submit a proof for amounts due to it by any of its Guaranteed Parties or any other guarantor.  Each Guarantor agrees to submit a proof promptly in accordance with this request.  All amounts received in respect of this proof shall be held by the Guarantor on trust for the other parties;  (D)notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this agreement, the liability of a Guarantor under this clause 31 shall in no circumstances exceed the liability of the Guaranteed Party whose obligations are guaranteed by that Guarantor; and  (E)the obligations in this clause 31 shall cease to have effect in respect of a Guarantor when the obligations of all of its Guaranteed Parties under this agreement have been discharged in full.  32.MISCELLANEOUS  Assignment  32.1Without prejudice to clauses 17 (Permitted Transfers), 18 (Novartis Transfer and GSK Right of First Refusal), 19(GSK Transfer and Novartis Right of First Refusal and Tag Right) and 24 (Effect of Deed of Adherence), no party shall, without the prior written consent of the other relevant parties:  (A)assign, or purport to assign all or any part of the benefit of, or its rights or benefits under, this agreement (together with any causes of action arising in connection with any of them);  (B)make a declaration of trust in respect of or enter into any arrangement whereby it agrees to hold in trust for any other person all or any part of the benefit of, or its rights or benefits under, this agreement;  (C)sub-contract or enter into any arrangement whereby another person is to perform any or all of its obligations under this agreement;  (D)transfer, charge or otherwise deal with any of its rights or obligations under this agreement; or  (E)grant, declare, create or dispose of any right or interest in it, in whole or in part,  and any purported assignment in contravention of this clause 32.1 shall be void.  Variation  32.2No variation of this agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and duly executed by or on behalf of all the parties to it.  32.3If this agreement is varied:  79


(A)the variation shall not constitute a general waiver of any provisions of this agreement;  (B)the variation shall not affect any rights, obligations or liabilities under this agreement that have already accrued up to the date of variation; and  (C)the rights and obligations of the parties under this agreement shall remain in full force and effect, except as, and only to the extent that, they are so varied.  Warranties  32.4Each of the parties warrants to each other as at the date of this agreement that:  (A)it is validly existing and is a company duly incorporated and registered under the law of its jurisdiction of incorporation;  (B)it has the legal right and full power and authority to enter into and perform this agreement which will constitute valid and binding obligations on it in accordance with its terms;  (C)except as referred to in this agreement, it:  (i)is not required to make any announcement, consultation, notice, report or filing; and  (ii)does not require any consent, approval, registration, authorisation or permit,  in each case in connection with the performance of this agreement.  33.ENTIRE AGREEMENT  33.1This agreement, the Transaction Documents and any other agreement or document entered into by each of the parties in connection with any such document together constitute the whole and only agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter of this agreement, the Transaction Documents and any other agreement or document entered into by each of the parties in connection with any such document.  33.2Each party acknowledges that in entering into this agreement, the Transaction Documents and any other agreement or document entered into by each of the parties in connection with any such document it is not relying upon any pre contractual statement which is not set out in this agreement, any Transaction Documents or any other agreement or document entered into by each of the parties in connection with any such document.  33.3Except in the case of fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, no party shall have any right of action against any other party to this agreement (or their respective Connected Persons) arising out of or in connection with any pre contractual statement except to the extent that it is repeated in this agreement or in a Transaction Document or in any other  80


agreement or document entered into by each of the parties in connection with any such document.  33.4Except in the case of fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation and for any liability in respect of a breach of this agreement or any other Transaction Document, no party (nor any of its Connected Persons) shall owe any duty of care or have any liability in tort or otherwise to any other party (or its respective Connected Persons) in relation to the Company and the Business.  33.5For the purposes of this clause 33, pre contractual statement means any draft, agreement, undertaking, representation, warranty, promise, assurance or arrangement of any nature whatsoever, whether or not in writing, relating to the subject matter of this agreement or any of the Transaction Documents or in any other agreement or document entered into in connection with any such document (as the case may be) made or given by any person at any time prior to the date of this agreement or any of the Transaction Documents or any other agreement or document entered into in connection with any such document (as the case may be).  33.6Each party agrees to the terms of this clause 33 on its own behalf and as agent for each of its Connected Persons.  34.DISPUTE RESOLUTION  34.1In the event of any deadlock or dispute between the Shareholders Groupings or any of their respective Directors arising out of, or in connection with, this agreement, including in relation to an action for which the approval is required pursuant to clause 4 (Reserved Matters), the Shareholders Groupings agree to use reasonable endeavours to resolve the matter (acting reasonably and in good faith).  34.2If one Shareholder Grouping serves formal written notice on the other that a deadlock or dispute arising out of or in connection with this agreement, including in relation to an action for which the approval is required pursuant to clause 4 (Reserved Matters), has arisen and the Shareholder Groupings are unable to resolve such deadlock or dispute within a period of 21 days of receipt of such notice, then such deadlock or dispute shall be referred to the respective chief executive officers of the respective Shareholder Groupings Groups.  34.3In the event that the chief executive officers of the respective Shareholder Groupings Groups are unable to resolve the relevant deadlock or dispute within a further period of 21 days of such referral (or such other time as GSK and Novartis may agree), then the status quo of such matter shall continue to apply (save in the case of Novartis approval of the 2018/19 Business Plan pursuant to clause 4.1(L) (Reserved Matters)).  34.4This clause 34 shall be without prejudice to clause 45 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction) and shall not restrict or exclude the right of any party to pursue, in accordance with clause 45 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction), any dispute arising out of or in connection with this agreement.  81


35.CONFLICT WITH ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION  In the event of any ambiguity or discrepancy between the provisions of this agreement and the Articles of Association or other constitutional documents of a member of the Companys Group, the provisions of this agreement shall prevail as between the parties to the extent of the inconsistency for so long as this agreement remains in force.  Each of the parties shall (as applicable) exercise all voting and other rights and powers available to it so as to give effect to the provisions of this agreement and, if necessary, to procure (so far as it is able to do so) any required amendment to the Articles of Association or such other constitutional documents.  36.NOTICES  36.1A notice under this agreement shall only be effective if it is in writing.  E-mail is permitted.  Any notice validly served on one member of any Shareholder Group in accordance with this clause 36 shall be deemed to have been served on both members of such Shareholder Grouping.  36.2Notices under this agreement shall be sent to a party at its address and for the attention of the individual set out below:  Party and title of individual

Furthermore, each party acknowledges and agrees that it will not raise any objection to the application by or on behalf of another party or any member of its respective Group for any such remedies.  38.THIRD PARTY RIGHTS  38.1The parties agree that:  (A)certain provisions of this agreement confer a benefit on members of the parties respective Groups, their respective Connected Persons and such other Third Parties (each a Relevant Third Party) and, subject to the remaining provisions of this clause 38, are intended to be enforceable by each of the Relevant Third Parties by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999, provided that the party in the same Group as the Relevant Third Party shall have the sole conduct of any action to enforce such right on behalf of a such Relevant Third Party; and  (B)notwithstanding the provisions of clause 38.1(A), this agreement may be rescinded or varied in any way and at any time by the parties to this agreement without the consent of any Relevant Third Party.  38.2Save as set out in clause 38.1(A), a person who is not a party to this agreement shall have no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or any other statutory provision to enforce any of its terms.  39.FURTHER ASSURANCE  Each party shall (and shall use reasonable endeavours to procure that any relevant Third Party shall) at its own cost, from time to time on request, do all acts and/or execute all documents in a form reasonably satisfactory to any other party which that other party may reasonably consider necessary for giving full effect to this agreement and securing to that other party the full benefit of the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon that other party in this agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement.  84


40.NO PARTNERSHIP  Nothing in this agreement and no action taken by the parties under this agreement shall constitute a partnership, association or other co operative entity between any of the parties or constitute any party the agent of any other party for any purpose.  41.COSTS AND EXPENSES  41.1Except as otherwise provided for in this agreement, each party shall pay its own costs and expenses in relation to the negotiation, preparation, execution and carrying into effect of this agreement and the Transaction Documents.  41.2The costs of and incidental to the incorporation and the establishment of the Company shall be borne and paid by the Company.  42.INVALIDITY  If at any time any provision (or part of any provision) of this agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Law of any jurisdiction, that shall not affect or impair:  (A)the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other (or the remainder of a) provision of this agreement; or  (B)the legality, validity or enforceability under the Law of any other jurisdiction of that or any other provision of this agreement.  42.2Each of the provisions of this agreement is severable.  42.3If and to the extent that any provision of this agreement:  (A)is held to be, or becomes, invalid or unenforceable under the Law of any jurisdiction; but  (B)would be valid, binding and enforceable if some part of the provision were deleted or amended,  then the provision shall apply with the minimum modifications necessary to make it valid, binding and enforceable. All other provisions of this agreement shall remain in force.  43.COUNTERPARTS  43.1This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the parties on separate counterparts, but shall not be effective until each party has executed at least one counterpart. Each counterpart shall constitute an original of this agreement, but all the counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.  85


43.2Delivery of a counterpart of this agreement by e-mail attachment shall be an effective mode of delivery.  44.LANGUAGE  Each notice or communication under or in connection with this agreement shall be in English.  45.GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION  45.1This agreement is to be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.  Any matter, claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with this agreement, whether contractual or non-contractual, is to be governed by and determined in accordance with English law.  45.2The courts of England are to have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this agreement.  Any Proceedings shall be brought only in the courts of England.  45.3Each party waives (and agrees not to raise) any objection, on the ground of forum non conveniens or on any other ground, to the taking of proceedings in the courts of England.  Each party also agrees that a judgment against it in Proceedings brought in England shall be conclusive and binding upon it and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction.  45.4Each party irrevocably submits and agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of England.  46.AGENT FOR SERVICE  46.1Each of Novartis, the First Novartis Shareholder and the Second Novartis Shareholder irrevocably appoints Hackwood Secretaries Limited of One Silk Street, London, EC2Y 8HQ to be its agent for the receipt of Service Documents.  Each such party agrees that any Service Document may be effectively served on it in connection with Proceedings in England and Wales by service on its agent effected in any manner permitted by the Civil Procedure Rules.  46.2If the agent at any time ceases for any reason to act as such, Novartis, the First Novartis Shareholder and the Second Novartis Shareholder shall each appoint a replacement agent having an address for service in England or Wales and shall notify the other parties of the name and address of the replacement agent.  Failing such appointment and notification, the Company shall be entitled by notice to Novartis to appoint a replacement agent to act on behalf of Novartis, the First Novartis Shareholder and the Second Novartis Shareholder, provided that Novartis shall be entitled, by notice to the Company, to replace that agent with a replacement agent having an address for service in England and Wales.  The provisions of this clause 46 applying to service on an agent apply equally to service on a replacement agent.  86

Failing such appointment and notification, the Company shall be entitled by notice to such Shareholder to appoint an agent to act on behalf of such Shareholder, provided that that Shareholder shall be entitled, by notice to the parties and other Shareholders, to replace that agent with a replacement agent having an address for service in England and Wales.  Such Shareholder agrees that any Service Document may be effectively served on it in connection with Proceedings in England and Wales by service on its agent effected in any manner permitted by the Civil Procedure Rules.  46.5Service Document means a claim form, application notice, order, judgment or other document relating to any Proceedings.  87

SCHEDULE 3 Price Determination  The Put Option Price shall be determined as follows:  1.Within 10 Business Days following any Put Exercise Notice Date:  (A)each of the GSK Shareholders and the Novartis Shareholders shall engage an investment bank of international repute which may be an existing or recent adviser of GSK or Novartis or any of their respective Affiliates and therefore not independent of GSK or Novartis (as the case may be) (the GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank, respectively); and  (B)the GSK Shareholders and the Novartis Shareholders shall jointly engage two mutually acceptable independent investment banks of international repute that are not then rendering advisory services to any Shareholder or any of its Affiliates (each an Independent Bank and together with the GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank, the Banks), provided that if the Shareholders fail to agree the identity of either or both of the Independent Banks within that period then either of the Shareholder Groupings may request that the Independent Bank(s) be nominated by the Chairman of the British Bankers Association, who shall be instructed to nominate such Independent Bank(s) within that period (and in any case within 5 Business Days thereafter).  2.The fees for the GSK Bank shall be borne by the GSK Shareholders and the fees for the Novartis Bank shall be borne by the Novartis Shareholders.  The fees for the Independent Banks shall be borne equally by the Shareholders.  3.Each Bank shall be instructed to determine its best estimate of the Put Option Market Value as defined in paragraph 5 below (each a Bank Valuation) as a single amount (and not as a range of amounts) in Pounds Sterling in accordance with the methodology set out in paragraph 5 below.  Save as expressly provided for in clause 19 and this Schedule 3, there shall be no communication permitted between the Independent Banks, nor between any Independent Bank and the GSK Bank or the Novartis Bank, nor between any Independent Bank and GSK or Novartis, in connection with the preparation of the Bank Valuations.  4.Within 10 Business Days following the Put Exercise Notice Date, the GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank shall jointly coordinate the preparation of a data room of information in respect of the Company and its Group for the purposes of enabling the Banks to produce the Bank Valuations.  The Company shall, so far as it is legally able, promptly provide to the GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank the following information to be made available in such data room (and all such information shall be available equally and on the same basis to each of the Banks):  (A)the then applicable Business Plan (if any).  In the event that, at such time, the process for revising a Business Plan in clause 5.1 to 5.3 (Business Plan) has started but has not finished, such process shall be completed as soon as  90


reasonably practicable and, in any event, within 10 Business Days following the service of any Put Exercise Notice, subject to the provisions of clause 5.4;  (B)any previously applicable Business Plan;  (C)the latest Quarterly Accounts delivered to the Shareholders pursuant to clause 9.1(B) (Access to Information and Accounts);  (D)the Valuation Balance Sheet;  (E)such other information as any of the Shareholders (acting reasonably and in good faith) deem relevant for the purposes of producing the Bank Valuations; and  (F)any questions and answers asked by any of the Banks and answered by the Company or any of the Shareholders in connection with the preparation of any of the Bank Valuations.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Banks shall not be entitled to receive any interim drafts of the information referred to in paragraphs 4(A) to 4(C) (inclusive).  Within 15 Business Days of the service of any Put Exercise Notice:  (i)the Executive Management shall give a presentation to the Shareholders and the Banks in relation to the financial forecasts of the Companys Group; and  (ii)the Shareholders shall each give a separate presentation to the Executive Management and the Banks in relation to the financial forecasts of the Companys Group.  The GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank shall assist in respect of the preparation of the management presentations referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.  5.The Put Option Market Value shall mean [***].  6.The Valuation Balance Sheet shall be [***].  7.The Shareholders acknowledge that, as at the date of this agreement, [***] are the most comparable Peer Companies, though they recognise that this assessment may change as at any Put Exercise Notice Date and is not binding on them in any way.  8.Each Bank shall be instructed to deliver its Bank Valuation simultaneously to each Shareholder Grouping by no later than the date falling [***] (such delivery to be coordinated by the GSK Bank and the Novartis Bank).  Following receipt of all of the Bank Valuations, the Put Option Market Value shall be determined in accordance with paragraphs 9 or 10 below (as applicable).  For the purposes of paragraph 9 below, IBA Valuation means the arithmetic mean of the two Bank Valuations delivered by the Independent Banks.  91
