funds (and without any deduction or withholding, save as required by law) to the bank account notified to the Purchaser by Novartis. 

  

	 	4.1.3	If any deduction or withholding is required by law to be made from any payment required to be made pursuant to Clause 4.1.2 then the Purchaser shall be obliged to pay to Novartis such sum as will, after the
deduction or withholding has been made, leave Novartis with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a deduction or withholding. If the Purchaser thus makes an increased payment and
Novartis, in respect of the Tax that gave rise to such increased payment, receives and utilises a loss, relief, allowance or credit in respect of any Tax or any deduction in computing its income, profits or gains for the purposes of any Tax,
Novartis shall reimburse the Purchaser with such amount as shall leave Novartis in the same position as Novartis would have been in had no such deduction or withholding been required to be made. 


 

	 	4.1.4	The parties anticipate that any payment to be made pursuant to Clause 4.1.2 would not be treated as the consideration for a taxable supply for VAT purposes. If any Tax Authority determines that any such payment
(the “Relevant Payment”) is the consideration for a taxable supply then the Relevant Payment shall be inclusive of any amounts in respect of VAT but shall be subject to adjustment on the following basis: 


 

	 	(i)	if the Purchaser (or the representative member of its VAT group) is liable to account for VAT under a reverse charge mechanism, to the extent that the Purchaser (or such representative member) is not entitled to recover
such VAT from the relevant Tax Authority, the Relevant Payment shall be reduced such that the aggregate of the reduced payment and any irrecoverable VAT in respect thereof equals the original amount of the Relevant Payment; and

 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	(ii)	if Novartis (or the representative member of its VAT group) is liable to account for VAT, Novartis shall issue a valid VAT invoice to the Purchaser and the amount of the Relevant Payment (inclusive of amounts in respect
of VAT) shall be increased by the amount which the Purchaser (or the representative member of its VAT group) is entitled to recover as an input tax in respect thereof. 


 

	 	4.1.5	The parties agree that in the event the Compensation Amount becomes payable pursuant to Clause 4.1.1, Novartis shall not have any other rights or remedies under, or in connection with, this Deed against the
Purchaser. 

  

	 	4.1.6	The parties agree that nothing in Clauses 4.1.1 and (if applicable) 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 of this Deed shall oblige the Purchaser to pay an aggregate amount under such Clause which is more than the maximum amount
permitted under the Listing Rules. 

  

	4.2	Disposal after payment of compensation

Novartis Group in connection with such Relevant Event or Relevant Events) (the “Value Received”) up to an amount equal to the Compensation Amount received, (net of any Taxes incurred by the Novartis Group in respect thereof),
provided that Novartis shall not be required to make any payment pursuant to this Clause 4.2.1 unless the Value Received is equal to or in excess of US$7.5 million (or the equivalent in another currency). Where the Value Received is equal to or in
excess of US$7.5 million (or the equivalent in another currency), the liability of Novartis shall be for an amount equal to the whole of the Value Received and not just the excess. Clauses 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 shall apply to any payment to be made
pursuant to this Clause 4.2.1, mutatis mutandis. 
  

	 	4.2.2	Each of the following shall constitute a “Relevant Event” for the purposes of Clause 4.2.1: 

  

	 	(i)	the sale of any (or any part of any) of the Relevant Option Assets to a Third Party Purchaser either as a single transaction or by a number of transactions, excluding a sale of any (or any part of any) of the Relevant
Option Assets to another member of the Purchaser’s Group; 

  

	 	(ii)	any transaction, or series of transactions, the effect of which is to transfer ownership, or the ability to direct or control the use of, or to transfer the economic benefit of, any (or any part of any) of the Relevant

the bank account notified to Novartis by the Purchaser within five Business Days of Novartis having received the relevant consideration. It is acknowledged that more than one payment may be required by this Clause 4.2.

Rights used in or held for use in relation to any of the Option Assets to a Third Party Purchaser prior to the Option Exercise Date (“Third Party Purchaser Intellectual Property Rights”) and, after the signing of the relevant

	 	5.1.4	If the terms of any relevant intellectual property rights contract do not permit the sub-licensing to the Purchaser’s Group as contemplated in Clause 5.1.3 above, Novartis and the Purchaser shall discuss in

	 	(a)	give written notice thereof to Novartis, setting out such information as is available to the Purchaser as is reasonably necessary to enable Novartis to assess the merits of the potential claim; 


 

	 	(b)	take all appropriate actions to preserve evidence; and

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 any Contract with any Governmental Entity which breach does not also constitute a breach of Applicable Law), Novartis shall be 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 Paragraph 8.2, Novartis 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.

copies thereof) for the purposes of enabling Novartis 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 Novartis, give such assistance to Novartis as it may reasonably require in relation to the
claim including providing Novartis or any member of the Novartis 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 Novartis and
generally co-operates with and assists Novartis and other members of Novartis Group.

Companies from any securities, guarantees or indemnities given by or binding upon the Influenza Group Companies in respect of any liability of Novartis or any member of the Novartis Group. Pending such release, Novartis shall indemnify the Influenza
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 Novartis which arises after Option Closing. 


 

	8.4	Transferred Accounts Payable 

 If at any time after Option Closing, Novartis or any of
its Affiliates pays any monies in respect of any Transferred Accounts Payable, then the Purchaser shall pay or procure payment to Novartis (for the relevant Business Seller), as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid, plus any Taxation
suffered or incurred by the Novartis Group which would not have arisen but for the payment and receipt of such monies. 
  

	8.5	Transferred Accounts Receivable 

 If at any time after Option Closing, a Business Seller
receives any monies in respect of any Transferred Accounts Receivable, then the 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

	10.4	Aggregate Minimum Claims 

  

	 	10.4.1	Novartis shall not be liable under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty in respect of any claim unless the aggregate amount of all claims for which Novartis would
otherwise be liable under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty (disregarding the provisions of this Paragraph 10.4) exceeds US$2.5 million. 


 

	 	10.4.2	Where the liability agreed or determined in respect of all claims exceeds US$2.5 million, Novartis shall be liable for the aggregate amount of all claims as agreed or determined and not just the excess.


  

	 	10.4.3	For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser may give notice of any single claim in accordance with and for the purposes of Paragraph 10.2, irrespective of whether, at the time the notice is given, the amount set
out in Paragraph 10.4.2 has been exceeded. 

  

	10.5	Maximum Liability 

 The aggregate liability of Novartis in respect of: 

 

	 	10.5.1	any breaches of Novartis’s Warranties (other than Novartis’s Warranties contained in paragraphs 1, 2.1, 2.2.1, 2.2.3, 2.3 or 4.1 to 4.10 of Appendix 18) shall not exceed an amount equal to thirty per
cent. of the Headline Price;

 The Novartis shall not be liable under this Deed or any Local
Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty 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
Paragraph 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 Paragraph 10.2 shall not exonerate Novartis in respect of
any claim properly notified before that date. 
  

	10.7	Provisions 

 Novartis shall not be liable under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document,
in either case, in respect of any claim for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty, if and to the extent that any allowance, provision or reserve has been properly made in the Option Closing Statement or Statement of Net Assets for the matter giving

 Subject to Paragraph 8.1.2, Novartis shall not
be liable under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document, in either case in respect of any claim for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty, in respect of any matter, act, omission or circumstance (or any combination thereof), to the extent that the

	 	10.8.1	Agreed matters 

 any matter or thing done or omitted to be done by Novartis or any

deducting any reasonable costs incurred in making such recovery including the amount of any excess or deductible). 
  

	10.10	Purchaser’s Right to Recover 

 If Novartis has paid an amount in discharge of any
claim under this Deed for breach of any Novartis’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 Novartis as soon as practicable after receipt an amount equal to (i) the sum recovered from the 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 Novartis
to the Purchaser. Any payment made by the Purchaser to Novartis under this Paragraph shall be made or procured by way of further adjustment of the consideration paid by the Purchaser and the provisions of Paragraph 3.3 shall apply mutatis
mutandis. 
  

	10.11	No Double Recovery and no Double Counting 

 A party shall be entitled to make more than
one claim under this Deed arising out of the same subject matter, fact, event or circumstance but shall not be entitled to recover under this Deed or any 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 Deed or any Local Transfer Document or the Tax Indemnity or otherwise, with the intent that there will be no double counting under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document and the Tax
Indemnity or otherwise.

 Without prejudice to the obligations of the Purchaser
under Paragraph 11.2, if the Purchaser becomes aware of any fact, matter or circumstance that may give rise to a claim against Novartis under this Deed or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty other than a Tax
Warranty (ignoring for these purposes the application of Paragraph 11.2 or 11.3), the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give a notice in writing to Novartis 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 Deed or any Local Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty, except that the failure shall
be taken into account in determining the liability of Novartis for such claim to the extent Novartis establishes that the amount of it is increased, or is not reduced, as a result of such failure. 

 

	11.2	Notification of Claims under this Deed 

 Notices of claims under this Deed or any Local
Transfer Document for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty (other than a Tax Warranty) shall be given by the Purchaser to Novartis within the time limits specified in Paragraph 10.2 and shall specify information (giving reasonable detail) in
relation to the basis of the claim and setting out the Purchaser’s estimate of the amount of Losses which are, or are to be, the subject of the claim. 
  

	11.3	Commencement of Proceedings 

 Any claim notified pursuant to Paragraph 11.2 shall (if it
has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to be irrevocably withdrawn 9 months after the relevant time limit set out in Paragraph 10.2 unless, at the relevant time, legal proceedings in respect of the relevant claim have
been commenced by being both issued and served except: 
  

	 	11.3.1	where the claim relates to a contingent liability, in which case it shall be deemed to have been withdrawn unless legal proceedings in respect of it have been commenced by being both issued and served with 9
months of it having become an actual liability; or 

  

	 	11.3.2	where the claim is a claim for breach of a Novartis’s Warranty of which notice is given for the purposes of Paragraph 10.2 at a time when the amount set out in Paragraph 10.4.2 has not been exceeded, in
which case it shall be deemed to have been withdrawn unless legal proceedings in respect of it have been commenced by being both issued and served within 9 months of the date of any subsequent notification to Novartis pursuant to Paragraph 11.1 of
one or more claims which result(s) in the total amount claimed in all claims notified to Novartis pursuant to Paragraph 10.2 exceeding the amount set out in Paragraph 10.4.2 for the first time.

	 	11.4.1	the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give written notice thereof to Novartis and thereafter shall provide Novartis with periodic updates upon reasonable request and shall consult with Novartis so
far as reasonably practicable in relation to the conduct of the Third Party Claim and shall take reasonable account of the views of Novartis in relation to the Third Party Claim; 


 

	 	11.4.2	the Third Party Claim shall not be admitted, compromised, disposed of or settled without the written consent of Novartis (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and 


 

	 	11.4.3	subject to Novartis indemnifying the Purchaser or other member of the Purchaser’s Group concerned against all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal and professional costs and expenses) that may be
incurred thereby, the Purchaser shall, or the Purchaser shall procure that any other members of the Purchaser’s Group shall, take such action as Novartis may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, deny, defend, resist, appeal, compromise or
contest the Third Party Claim, provided that this Paragraph 11.4.3 shall not apply where the claim by the third party relates to matters or circumstances referred to in paragraphs 4 or 9 of Appendix 18 and the Purchaser shall then have the right to
conduct the claim at its discretion (subject to Paragraphs 11.4.1 and 11.4.2), 

 provided that failure to give notice in
accordance with Paragraph 11.4.1 shall not affect the rights of the Purchaser to make a relevant claim under this Deed for breach of any Novartis’s Warranty, except that the failure shall be taken into account in determining the liability of
Novartis for such claim to the extent Novartis establishes that the amount of it is increased, or is not reduced, as a result of such failure.

	15.10	Grossing-up 

  

	 	15.10.1	All sums payable under this Deed, the Local Transfer Documents and the Tax Indemnity shall be paid free and clear of all deductions, withholdings, set-offs or counterclaims whatsoever save only as may be
permitted by Paragraph 15.6.3 or required by law. Subject to Paragraphs 15.10.3 to 15.10.7 if any deductions or withholdings are required by law the party making the payment shall (except in the case of any interest payable under Paragraph 7.5 or
15.9) be obliged to pay to the other party such sum as will after such deduction or withholding has been made leave the other party with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a
deduction or withholding, provided that if either party to this Deed shall have assigned or novated the benefit in whole or in part of this Deed or shall, after the date of this Deed, have changed its tax residence or the permanent establishment to
which the rights under this Deed are allocated then the liability of the other party under this Paragraph 15.10.1 shall be limited to that (if any) which it would have been had no such assignment, novation or change taken place. 


 

	 	15.10.2	If either party is or becomes aware of any facts making it reasonably likely that the Purchaser, or any relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group, will be required to deduct or withhold any amount in respect
of the Purchase Price (a “Relevant Tax Deduction”), then that party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give notice to the other party (including details of the relevant facts and, so far as possible, details of the rate and
basis of such withholding) provided that for the purposes of this Paragraph 15.10.2, Novartis may assume that the Purchase Price will be paid by (and for) a company resident for Tax purposes only in Belgium. 


 

	 	15.10.3	Novartis and the Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the members of their respective groups shall (at Novartis’s cost), co-operate with each other in good faith and use all reasonable efforts to reduce
or mitigate any Relevant Tax Deduction (or its amount) and/or to enable Novartis or the relevant Share Seller or Business Seller to obtain any available credit or refund in respect of such Relevant Tax Deduction, including, without limitation,
making any available claim under an applicable double taxation treaty. 

  

	 	15.10.4	Without prejudice to the generality of Paragraph 15.10.3, Novartis and the Purchaser shall co-operate in good faith to establish or agree the amount or basis of calculation of any Relevant Tax Deduction prior to
Option Closing (and in this regard the Purchaser shall consider reasonably any relevant information or evidence provided or obtained by Novartis) including, if requested by Novartis and at the Novartis’s expense, by seeking to obtain a ruling
or confirmation from a relevant Tax Authority, or obtaining an opinion from reputable local tax counsel or a firm of accountants of international standing satisfactory to the Purchaser (acting reasonably) and instructed jointly by Novartis and the
Purchaser. 


  
  

79 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	15.10.5	The Purchaser shall, or shall procure that the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall, make any Relevant Tax Deduction in the minimum amount required by Applicable Law, provided that:


  

	 	(i)	if a double taxation treaty between the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Relevant Tax Deduction is required and the jurisdiction of residence of Novartis or the relevant Share Seller or Business Seller is in
force, the Purchaser shall (and shall procure that any relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall) make any Relevant Tax Deduction in an amount not exceeding the rate specified in such double taxation treaty (which may be nil), provided
that Novartis has provided the Purchaser with such evidence as is required under Applicable Law to establish the entitlement of Novartis (or relevant Share Seller or Business Seller) to the benefit of the applicable treaty; and 


 

	 	(ii)	if an opinion from reputable local counsel or a firm of accountants of international standing has been obtained at the request of Novartis as envisaged by Paragraph 15.10.4, 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 Novartis 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.


  

	 	15.10.6	The Purchaser shall promptly provide Novartis with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Novartis that a Relevant Tax Deduction has been made and an appropriate amount paid to the relevant Tax Authority.


  

	 	15.10.7	If any Relevant Tax Deduction is required an additional sum shall be payable in accordance with Paragraph 15.10.1 only if and to the extent that such deduction or withholding would not have been required had the
Purchaser and each member of the Purchaser’s Group making such payment or to which such payment relates been resident for Tax purposes only in Belgium.

	1.2	Company Third Party Consents 

  

	 	1.2.1	This paragraph 1.2.1 of Part 3 of Appendix 3 applies to those Company Real Properties in relation to which a Company Third Party Consent is required and if such Company Third Party Consent remains to be obtained as at
the Option Closing Date this paragraph 1.2.1 of Part 3 of Appendix 3 shall continue to apply until the relevant Company Third Party Consent shall have been obtained or until the Company Real Property Longstop Date. If any Company Third Party
Consents are required: 

  

	 	(i)	Novartis shall make an application for, and shall use all reasonable endeavours to obtain each Company Third Party Consent as soon as reasonably practicable following the Option Exercise Date and shall at all times keep
the Purchaser informed of progress in obtaining such Company Third Party Consents; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Purchaser shall supply such information and references as may reasonably be required by a Company Landlord, any superior landlord or other relevant third party in connection with a Company Third Party Consent;


  

	 	(iii)	the Purchaser shall be responsible for and undertake to pay, or procure the giving of undertakings to pay the professional and other fees of any Company Landlord, any superior landlord or other relevant person
(including any Tax or disbursements in respect of such fees but excluding any Tax on the actual net income, profit or gains of the Company Landlord, any superior landlord or any other relevant person) properly incurred in connection with any
application for Company Third Party Consents, whether or not such Company Third Party Consents are given; and 

  

	 	(iv)	in respect of the period after Option Closing only, the Purchaser shall enter into such covenants for the payment of the rent under the Company Lease and for the observance and performance of the covenants and
conditions contained in the Company Lease as may reasonably be required by the Company Landlord, any superior landlord or other relevant third party. 

  

	 	1.2.2	Each party shall give written notice to the other party as soon as reasonably practicable after obtaining any Company Third Party Consents which shall be accompanied by a copy of such consent.

	 	(i)	any moneys required to be paid by Novartis pursuant to this paragraph; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 any Liabilities under any guarantees or other security given or procured by Novartis pursuant to this paragraph and arising out of, or in connection
with, an act or omission on the part of the Purchaser or (following Option Closing) the relevant Influenza Group Company,

in respect of the relevant Influenza Group Company, the Purchaser shall provide or procure the giving of any such guarantees or security. 

Company Third Party Consent not obtained 
  

	 	1.2.4	If a Company Third Party Consent has been refused or otherwise not obtained within twelve months following the Option Closing Date, Novartis and the Purchaser may (acting reasonably) agree that an application is
to be made to a court of competent jurisdiction that the relevant Company Third Party Consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed.

	 	(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). 

  

	 	1.4.6	The Purchaser and each Business Seller agree that:

Transferred Real Property.

	1.5	Determination of Licence 

  

	 	1.5.1	The Licence in relation to any one or more of the Licensed Premises shall determine: 

  

	 	(i)	immediately if the Property Longstop Date occurs; or 

  

	 	(ii)	by the relevant Business Seller 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 the relevant Business 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 Real Property prosecutes forfeiture proceedings (or the nearest local law equivalent) as a result of the occupation by the Purchaser of the Licensed

	 	(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 Novartis and the Purchaser or, failing agreement, within 14 days, by the President (as defined in paragraph 1.3.2(ii) of this Part 4 of Appendix 3)). 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 parties (acting reasonably) in order to afford Novartis the opportunity to apply
for relief from 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. 

 

	 	1.5.2	If, for whatever reason, the Licence Period comes to an end in relation to any of the Licensed Premises then:

	 	(ii)	the Purchaser shall not be entitled to any refund, abatement or reduction of the Purchase Price but 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; 


  
  

98 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	(iii)	it shall not prejudice or affect any claim by any relevant Business Seller in respect of any prior breach of this Deed 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;

Option Closing Date. 

  

	 	1.6.2	The Purchase Price shall be paid on the Option Closing Date in accordance with this Deed even if any necessary Property Third Party Consents have not then been obtained and not all the Transferred Real Property
is transferred on the Option Closing Date.

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 Appendix 3 declares that the Sublease Consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed),
the relevant Business Seller shall grant to the Purchaser a sublease of the Transferred Leased Real Property on the same rent and other terms and conditions as the Lease of the Transferred Leased Real Property with such changes as are appropriate
and agreed between the relevant Business Seller and the Purchaser acting reasonably and the term of the sublease shall be the term of such Lease less one day. 
  

	1.12	Property Third Party Consent not obtained

Transfer of Marketing Authorisations 
  

	1	Marketing Authorisation Transfer and Marketing Authorisation Re-registration 

  

	1.1	Novartis and the Purchaser hereby agree they will each use, and will procure that their respective Affiliates will use, all reasonable endeavours to ensure that, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Option
Closing Date: 

  

	 	1.1.1	subject to paragraph 1.1.2, each Marketing Authorisation shall be transferred in accordance with Applicable Law by the Marketing Authorisation Holder to the Marketing Authorisation Transferee (“Marketing
Authorisation Transfer”); and 

  

	 	1.1.2	where Applicable Law does not permit Marketing Authorisation Transfer, a new marketing authorisation shall be registered in the name of the Marketing Authorisation Transferee to replace the existing Marketing
Authorisation (“Marketing Authorisation Re-registration”) and Novartis shall procure that the relevant Marketing Authorisation Holder takes all necessary steps to withdraw, abandon, cancel or allow to lapse the superseded Marketing
Authorisation as soon as practicable after the Marketing Authorisation Re-registration Date. 

  

	1.2	Any Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as applicable) shall each be effected on a Market-by-Market basis (such that there shall not be any staggered Marketing Authorisation
Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as the case may be) on a Product-by-Product basis in any Market), unless otherwise agreed between Novartis and the Purchaser. 


 

	1.3	With effect from the Option Closing Date until the Marketing Authorisation Transfer Date or the Marketing Authorisation Re-registration Date (as applicable), Novartis shall procure that each Marketing Authorisation
Holder shall hold the Marketing Authorisation(s) in its name but for the account, risk and benefit of the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee. 


Submission of MA Documentation 
  

	1.4	Without prejudice to paragraph 1.5, the Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing and submitting, or for procuring that there is prepared and submitted (in any such case at the Purchaser’s cost and expense), all
notices, applications, submissions, reports and any other instruments, documents, correspondence or filings necessary to complete Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as applicable) (the “MA
Documentation”). The MA Documentation shall be prepared in accordance with Applicable Law as soon as reasonably practicable. 

  

	1.5	At Novartis’s election, the Purchaser shall procure that advanced drafts of the MA Documentation are submitted to Novartis so as to allow Novartis and/or the Marketing Authorisation Holder a reasonable opportunity
to provide comments on such MA Documentation before it is submitted to the relevant Governmental Entity. The Purchaser shall incorporate all comments on such drafts as may reasonably be made by Novartis and/or the Marketing Authorisation Holder
PROVIDED THAT the Purchaser shall not be obliged to incorporate any comments if the Purchaser considers, acting reasonably that to do so would materially delay Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as
applicable). 


  
  

110 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	1.6	Where under Applicable Law the MA Documentation is required to be submitted to the relevant Governmental Entity: 

  

	 	1.6.1	by the Marketing Authorisation Holder, the Purchaser shall procure that the finalised MA Documentation is provided to Novartis after such MA Documentation is finalised in accordance with paragraph 1.5 above and Novartis
shall, in turn, procure that the Marketing Authorisation Holder submits such MA Documentation to the relevant Governmental Entity (the timing and date of such submission to be agreed with the Purchaser) and Novartis shall promptly thereafter advise
the Purchaser of such submission and provide a copy of the relevant MA Documentation (in the form submitted) to the Purchaser; and 

  

	 	1.6.2	by the Marketing Authorisation Transferee, the Purchaser shall procure that the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee submits the finalised MA Documentation to the relevant Governmental Entity as soon as
reasonably practicable after such MA Documentation is finalised in accordance with paragraph 1.5 above and the Purchaser shall promptly thereafter advise Novartis of such submission and provide a copy of the relevant MA Documentation (in the form
submitted) to Novartis. 

  

	1.7	From the Option Closing Date, Novartis shall procure that the relevant Marketing Authorisation Holder shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, sign any notices, applications, submissions, reports and other instruments,
documents, correspondence or filings presented to it by the Purchaser or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee that are necessary to effect Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as applicable). The
Marketing Authorisation Holder shall: 

  

	 	1.7.1	provide notice of its consent to a Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration if required by any Governmental Entity; 


 

	 	1.7.2	provide to the Purchaser or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee any information or other data or technical or other information in its possession that relates to the relevant Marketing Authorisation and that
is required by a relevant Governmental Entity or otherwise reasonably required by the Purchaser or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee to assist the Purchaser or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee to effect the relevant
Marketing Authorisation Transfer or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration; and 

  

	 	1.7.3	in the event of any request for information or any query from any relevant Governmental Entity in respect of Marketing Authorisation Transfer or the Marketing Authorisation Re-registration (as applicable), the relevant
party receiving such request or query shall provide copies of any such request or query to Novartis or, as the case may be, to the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing, or shall be responsible for procuring that there is
prepared, (at the Purchaser’s cost and expense) any response to such a request or query with the intention that such request or query shall be dealt with as promptly and efficiently as possible. In advance of finalising any such response, the
Purchaser shall procure that the relevant response is submitted to the Novartis so as to allow Novartis and/or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Holder a reasonable opportunity to provide comments on such response before it is submitted to the
Governmental Entity. 


  
  

111 








 Execution Version 
  

	 	
The Purchaser shall procure that relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee (i) shall submit the response to the relevant Governmental Entity as soon as reasonably practicable after the
same has been finalised in accordance with this paragraph 1.7.3 and (ii) shall provide a copy of the relevant response (in the form submitted) to Novartis. 

  


	2	Obligations Pending Marketing Authorisation Transfer Or Marketing Authorisation Re-Registration 

  

	2.1	Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law or a relevant Governmental Entity (or unless otherwise agreed in writing by Novartis and the Purchaser), from the Option Closing Date until the applicable Marketing
Authorisation Transfer Date or Marketing Authorisation Re-registration Date: 

  

	 	2.1.1	Novartis shall: 

  

	 	(i)	maintain in force (or procure that there is maintained in force) each Marketing Authorisation, and shall not voluntarily amend, cancel or surrender any Marketing Authorisation unless requested to do so in writing by the

	 	(ii)	with the Purchaser’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) progress (or procure that there is progressed) any registrations, variations or renewals to Marketing Authorisations initiated by Novartis
(or any other member of Novartis’s Group) prior to the Option Closing Date or withdraw them upon the request of the Purchaser; 

  

	 	(iii)	procure that each Marketing Authorisation Holder shall comply with the terms of any Marketing Authorisation and shall notify the Purchaser as soon as reasonably practicable of the details of any variations or renewals
initiated following the Option Closing Date;

agreed that the Purchaser shall have the final decision in any such matter); 

  

	 	(v)	not without the consent of the Purchaser, initiate any additional variations or amendments to the Marketing Authorisations, except to the extent required by any Governmental Entity or where failure to do so would breach
Applicable Law; and 

  

	 	(vi)	consider in good faith any request by the Purchaser to apply for a new marketing authorisation in respect of a Product PROVIDED THAT if Novartis agrees to submit such application, any costs or expenses incurred by
Novartis in making such application shall be for the Purchaser’s account and shall constitute MA Costs; 


  
  

112 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	2.1.2	without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing paragraph 2.1.1(iii), the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that each Marketing Authorisation Holder shall be entitled to do (or to procure that there is done) any or

Authorisation Holder):

Novartis’s Group from time to time in force; and 

  

	 	(ii)	conducting any and all communications with a Governmental Entity in respect of a Marketing Authorisation (including, without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, attending any meetings with relevant
Governmental Entities and filing and submitting all reports and other documents which it reasonably considers necessary to be submitted in order to comply with Applicable Law or its obligations under this Deed), PROVIDED THAT responsibility for
(a) the costs of preparation of any such documents, reports and/or filings shall be borne by the Purchaser (or the relevant Marketing Authorisation Transferee) to the extent such costs are reasonably necessary, and (b) the submission of MA
Documentation shall be the responsibility of the Purchaser in accordance with paragraph 1.4 above, PROVIDED THAT Novartis shall ensure that the Purchaser is kept fully and promptly informed of any such communications or submissions in advance, to
the extent reasonably practicable; and 

  

	 	2.1.3	Novartis shall procure that each Marketing Authorisation Holder shall act in accordance with the reasonable instructions of the Purchaser or the Marketing Authorisation Transferee in respect of each Marketing
Authorisation in respect of which such Marketing Authorisation Holder is the holder, PROVIDED THAT no Marketing Authorisation Holder shall be obliged to comply with such instructions to the extent the same: (i) infringe the terms of the
relevant Marketing Authorisation(s); or (ii) are otherwise inconsistent with the provisions of the Pharmacovigilance Agreement relating to Novartis; 

  

	 	2.1.4	the Purchaser shall only request artwork changes to the extent such changes are required in order to comply with Applicable Law; 

  

	 	2.1.5	the Purchaser shall submit to Novartis (or shall procure that there is submitted) written details (in such form and with such supporting materials as Novartis may reasonably request) of any new, amended or proposed
advertising and promotional activity or training materials in respect of any Product Commercialised pursuant to any Marketing Authorisation (including (without limitation) any material reasonably requested by Novartis in order to validate new and/or
amended promotional or training materials), and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that no such advertising, promotional or training activity shall be implemented, undertaken or otherwise commenced without the prior written consent of Novartis
(for itself and on behalf of the relevant Marketing Authorisation Holder), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The Purchaser further agrees and acknowledges that, if it so chooses, Novartis shall be entitled to assume responsibility for
obtaining (or procuring that there is obtained) the consent(s) and approval(s) of any relevant Governmental Entity required for such new, amended or proposed advertising and promotional activity or training activity; and 


  
  

113

	 	2.1.6	to the extent permitted by the terms of the relevant Marketing Authorisation, the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser’s Group shall Commercialise the Product(s) which are the subject of such Marketing
Authorisation (notwithstanding that such Marketing Authorisation is held in the name of the relevant Marketing Authorisation Holder and, for the avoidance of doubt, the proceeds of any such Commercialisation shall be for the benefit of the
Purchaser’s Group) and the Purchaser shall: 

  

	 	(i)	indemnify each member of Novartis’s Group against any and all actions, claims, demands, investigations, judgments, proceedings, liabilities, loss, damages, payments, costs and expenses arising in relation to the
Commercialisation of the Products by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser’s Group under this paragraph 2.1.6; and 

  

	 	(ii)	procure that such Product(s) are Commercialised in compliance with the terms of the relevant Marketing Authorisation and/or the requirements of the relevant Governmental Entity. 


 

	3	New and Pending Marketing Authorisations in Respect of the Products 

  

	3.1	If, at any time prior to Option Closing, any member of the Novartis Group is granted or otherwise comes to hold any marketing authorisation which relates exclusively to one or more Products (a “New Marketing

 Transferred
Contracts 
 (Paragraph 2.3) 
  

	1	Separation of Shared Business Contracts 

  

	1.1	Following the Option Exercise Date and prior to Option Closing, Novartis and the Purchaser shall discuss and agree in good faith a process to identify all material Shared Business Contracts 


 

	1.2	Novartis shall use all reasonable efforts to maintain relationships under the Shared Business Contracts and continue to operate the Shared Business Contracts, including without limitation fulfilling all its obligations
under the Shared Business Contracts, in the same manner as it has for the twelve months prior to this Deed. 

  

	1.3	The Purchaser may, by notice to Novartis at any time prior to the Marketing Authorisation Transfer Date in respect of the relevant Product in the relevant territory, elect to take the rights and obligation of the
Relevant Part of any Shared Business Contract. 

  

	1.4	If the Purchaser makes an election under paragraph 1.3 above, Novartis and the Purchaser shall use all reasonable endeavours to procure that an arrangement is entered into with the relevant counterparty to each Shared
Business Contract, the effect of which shall be that, with effect from whichever is the later of Marketing Authorisation Transfer Date and the date of the relevant arrangement, the benefit and burden of the Relevant Part is severed from such Shared
Business Contract and an agreement or arrangement equivalent to such Shared Business Contract is entered into between the relevant counterparty and a member of the Purchaser’s Group (or the Relevant Part of the Shared Business Contract is
sub-licensed to such Purchaser) (a “Separation”). For the avoidance of doubt, no part of any such Shared Business Contract shall be severed and transferred to any Purchaser in so far as it relates to Novartis’s Retained
Business, any product other than the Products or any Excluded Asset. 

  

	2	Obligation to obtain Third Party Consents

Consent or a Separation of a Shared Business Contract which is not separable without a Third Party Consent, this Deed, shall not be construed as an assignment, an attempted assignment, a sub-licensing or an attempted sub-licensing and Novartis and
the Purchaser shall each use reasonable endeavours both before and after Option Closing to obtain all necessary Third Party Consents as soon as possible and shall keep each other informed of progress in obtaining such Third Party Consents. Novartis
shall deliver to the Purchaser, on Option Closing or, if later, as soon as possible after receipt, any Third Party Consent. 

  

	2.2	In connection with the obtaining of any Third Party Consent referred to in paragraph 2.1, the Purchaser shall supply to Novartis such information as may be reasonably requested by Novartis or any relevant third party.



  
  

119 








 Execution Version 
  

	2.3	Save as otherwise provided in this Deed, the cost of any fee demanded by the third party as consideration for giving the Third Party Consent shall be borne by the Purchaser, provided that: 


 

	 	2.3.1	the cost is agreed in advance by the Purchaser (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and 

  

	 	2.3.2	no party shall be required to bear any internal or administrative costs of the other party in relation to any Third Party Consent. 

  


	3	Obligations until Third Party Consents are obtained/where Third Party Consents are refused 

  

	3.1	Subject to paragraph 3.2, the Purchaser shall assume, carry out, perform and discharge Novartis’s and the Business Seller’s obligations arising under the Transferred Contracts, Transferred Intellectual
Property Contracts, MF59® Intellectual Property Rights Contracts, Co-Owned Influenza Group Intellectual Property Rights, Transferred Plant and Equipment and the Relevant Part of the Shared

been refused: 

  

	 	3.2.1	the relevant Business Seller shall hold on trust to the extent it is lawfully able to do so or, where it is not lawfully able to do so or where holding on trust is not possible under local law or otherwise
impracticable, the relevant Business Seller and the Purchaser shall make such other arrangements between themselves to provide to the Purchaser the benefits of the Contract (other than amounts corresponding to any Tax Liability by the relevant
Business Seller in respect of amounts due under or in respect of the Transferred Contract, Transferred Intellectual Property Contract, MF59® Intellectual Property Rights Contract, Relevant
Part of Shared Business Contract, Transferred Plant and Equipment or Co-Owned Influenza Group Intellectual Property Right including the enforcement at the cost and for the account of the Purchaser of all rights of the relevant Business Seller
against any other party thereto; 

  

	 	3.2.2	to the extent that the relevant Business Purchaser is lawfully able to do so, the Purchaser shall perform the relevant Business Seller’s obligations under the Contract as agent or sub-contractor and shall indemnify
Novartis and the relevant Business Seller if the Purchaser fails to do so. To the extent that the Purchaser is not lawfully able to perform such obligations, Novartis shall procure that relevant Business Seller shall, (subject to being indemnified
by the Purchaser for any Losses Novartis or the relevant Business Seller may incur in connection therewith) do all such things as the Purchaser may reasonably require to enable due performance of the Transferred Contract, Transferred Intellectual
Property Contract, MF59® Intellectual Property Rights Contract, Transferred Plant and Equipment or Relevant Part of the Shared Business Contract and the Purchaser shall indemnify the relevant
Business Seller in respect thereof.

Appendix 10 
 Employees

 (Paragraph 2.4.1) 
  

	1	Information and consultation 

  

	1.1	At such time as the parties agree to be appropriate following the Option Exercise Date, Novartis 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: 

  

	 	1.1.1	inform the Employees that following Option Closing those Employees who continue to be employed in the Business would be employed by the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group; and 


 

	 	1.1.2	comply 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. 
  

	1.2	Notwithstanding the operation of paragraph 1.1 above, Novartis and the Purchaser agree to comply with any more onerous notice requirements imposed by local laws. 


 

	1.3	The Purchaser (on its own behalf and on behalf of any relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group) shall provide Novartis (for itself and any relevant member of the Novartis Group) with such information and assistance
at such times as Novartis may reasonably request or as may be reasonably necessary for Novartis or any other member of the Novartis 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 Deed (which formal or informal requirements Novartis 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 Deed, Novartis (for itself and for each member of the Novartis Group) and the Purchaser (for itself and for each member of the Purchaser’s 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 Novartis. 

  

	1.4	As soon as practicable following the Option Exercise Date, the Purchaser 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 Novartis so as to facilitate Novartis’s information and consultation exercise with its Employees in respect of the matters set out in this Deed. 


 

	2	Influenza Business Employees 

  

	2.1	General 

  

	 	2.1.1	The Purchaser shall (or shall procure that the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall) fulfil all its duties and obligations under Applicable Law in relation to the Influenza Business Employees. Where the
provisions of local law do not provide for an automatic transfer of the employment of the Influenza Business Employees to the Purchaser or a relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group with effect from (and including) the Option 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 Influenza Business Employees to the Purchaser or the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group with effect from
(and including) the Option Closing Date, then paragraph 2.3 below shall apply. 


  
  

122 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	2.1.2	The parties acknowledge and agree that: 

  

	 	(i)	any Deferred Employee shall be treated for all purposes under this Deed as if such Deferred Employee were an Influenza Business Employee or an Influenza Group Company Employee (as appropriate); and 


 

	 	(ii)	the Purchaser’s obligations under this Appendix 10 shall apply in respect of each Deferred Employee in the same way as they do to each Influenza Business Employee or Influenza Group 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 an Influenza Group Company after the Option Closing Date, such Deferred Employee shall
further be treated for all purposes under this Deed as a Transferred Employee. 

  

	 	2.1.3	For the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph 2 shall not apply to any Excluded Employee, who will remain employed by Novartis or the relevant member of the Novartis Group. 


 

	2.2	Where no automatic transfer of employment 

  

	 	2.2.1	In such timescale as the parties may agree, but in any event at least 30 Business Days prior to the Option Closing Date, the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall make an offer to each
Influenza Business Employee employed by Novartis or a member of the Novartis Group to employ him or her under a new contract of employment to commence with effect from (and including) the Option Closing Date provided that such employee continues to
be an Influenza Business Employee until the Option Closing Date. Save as otherwise agreed with Novartis (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 Influenza Business Employee immediately prior to the Option Closing Date. The Purchaser shall keep Novartis updated throughout the offer process on when offers are made and accepted or rejected.


  

	 	2.2.2	If the Influenza Business Employee wishes to accept the offer of employment from the Purchaser or the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group, then Novartis shall (or shall procure that the relevant member of the
Novartis Group shall), insofar as it is permitted by Applicable Law, waive the requirement on the Influenza 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 Influenza Business Employee to commence employment with the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group with effect from (and including) the Option Closing Date. 


  
  

123 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	2.3	Where 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 Influenza Business Employee and to whom paragraph 2.2 does not apply, the Purchaser agrees that following Option Closing: 

 

	 	2.3.1	in consultation with Novartis, the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall within 10 Business Days of being so requested by Novartis (as long as the request is made no later than 3 months after
Option Closing) (or if the Purchaser so chooses), make such Relevant Influenza 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 the parties and
such employee; and 

  

	 	2.3.2	save as otherwise agreed with Novartis (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 Influenza Business Employee immediately prior to the Option Closing Date. 

  

	3	Wrong-pocket arrangements for persons other than Relevant Employees 

  

	3.1	If the contract of employment of any person other than a Relevant Employee is found or alleged to have effect upon Option Closing as if originally made with the Purchaser or another member of the Purchaser’s Group
(including any Influenza Group Company) as a consequence of this Deed, or if any Influenza Group Company employs any person who does not work wholly or substantially in the Business, Novartis agrees that following Option Closing: 


 

	 	3.1.1	in consultation with the Purchaser, Novartis or relevant member of the Novartis Group may within 10 Business Days of being so requested by the Purchaser (as long as the request is made no later than 3 months after
Option Closing) (or if Novartis 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 


 

	 	3.1.2	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 person immediately prior to the Option Closing Date. 


 

	3.2	After the expiry of the 10 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 the Novartis Group), Novartis shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Purchaser (for itself and as trustee for any relevant member of the
Purchaser’s Group) against all Losses from time to time made, suffered or incurred by the Purchaser (or any other member of the Purchaser’s Group) as a result of: 


 

	 	3.2.1	the 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; 


  
  

124 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	3.2.2	employing such person on and from the Option 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 6 months unless prevented by the terms of the contract of employment or Applicable Law; and 

  

	 	3.2.3	such termination. 

  

	3.3	The parties agree to co-operate in good faith to minimise the Losses which are subject to the indemnity referred to in paragraph 3.2 above.  


 

	4	Employment liabilities 

  

	4.1	All 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: 


 

	 	4.1.1	after the Option Closing Date shall be borne or discharged by the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group; and 

  

	 	4.1.2	on or before the Option Closing Date shall be borne or discharged by Novartis or relevant member of the Novartis Group. 

  

	4.2	Novartis shall (for itself and for each member of the Novartis Group) indemnify and keep indemnified the Purchaser (for itself and as trustee for each other member of the Purchaser’s Group) against all
Losses (ignoring any amount in respect of Employee Benefits, as to which see Appendix 11) in respect of: 

  

	 	4.2.1	the employment of any Employee at any time prior to the Option Closing Date (excluding any Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities (as defined in Appendix 11) which the Purchaser agrees to assume in accordance with
Appendix 11); 

  

	 	4.2.2	any termination of the employment of any Employees prior to the Option 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 Option Closing as a result of which that Employee treats his employment as having been terminated prior to the Option Closing Date); 


 

	 	4.2.3	any amount which becomes payable to any Employee or benefit to which any Employee becomes entitled by reason of this Deed 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 11 below); 


 

	 	4.2.4	any failure by Novartis or any other member of the Novartis Group to comply with any obligation to inform or consult with employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Deed (other than as
a result of any failure set out in paragraph 4.3.3 below); and 


  
  

125 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	4.2.5	any breach by Novartis or any other member of the Novartis Group of paragraph 4.1.2 above or paragraph 4.4, 4.5 or 10 below. 

  

	4.3	The Purchaser shall (for itself and for each member of the Purchaser’s Group) indemnify and keep indemnified Novartis (for itself and as trustee for each other member of the Novartis Group) against all
Losses (ignoring any amount in respect of Employee Benefits, as to which see Appendix 11) in respect of: 

  

	 	4.3.1	the employment of any of the Transferred Employees on and after the Option 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); 

  

	 	4.3.2	any termination of the employment of any Transferred Employees on and after the Option 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; 

  

	 	4.3.3	any failure by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser’s Group to provide information and reasonable assistance to Novartis to enable Novartis or any other member of the Novartis Group to comply with any
obligation to inform or consult with employee representatives in connection with the matters contemplated by this Deed; 

  

	 	4.3.4	any breach by the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser’s Group of paragraph 4.1.1 above or paragraph 4.4 or 4.5 below; and 


 

	 	4.3.5	any act or omission by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group in relation to any Employee before Option Closing as a result of which that Employee treats his employment as having been terminated prior
to the Option Closing Date. 

  

	4.4	Any amount payable to or in respect of any Transferred Employee after Option 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 Appendix 11) is referable to the period prior to Option Closing is payable by Novartis (for itself or on behalf of the relevant Share Seller or Business Seller). Responsibility for
amounts payable which are only partly referable to the period prior to Option Closing (again ignoring vesting conditions) is to be shared between Novartis (for itself or on behalf of the relevant Share Seller or Business Seller) and the Purchaser
(for itself or on behalf of the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group) such that Novartis 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 Option Closing Date and P is the percentage of that period which falls after the Option 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 Option Closing and shall deduct and/or pay and account for any Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such amounts. Novartis covenants to
reimburse the Purchaser in respect of any such amount (or S per cent. of it where relevant), including any Tax 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 Option Closing Statement. Novartis will provide the Purchaser with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to allow such payments to be made. 


  
  

126 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	4.5	Following the Option Closing Date: 

  

	 	4.5.1	the 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 Novartis to the Purchaser to each Transferred Employee who participated in an
annual cash bonus plan immediately before the Option Closing Date in their first payroll payment after the Option Closing Date; and 

  

	 	4.5.2	where Novartis 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 Novartis’s determination of
performance to the Option Closing Date and pro-rated to the Option Closing Date; or 

  

	 	4.5.3	where Novartis is unable to determine performance (either business or individual), for example, because the Option Closing Date occurs near the start of the bonus year, Novartis shall calculate any such bonus payment
based on a deemed achievement of performance conditions at target level pro-rated to the Option Closing Date; and 

  

	 	4.5.4	as soon as reasonably practicable after the Option Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that such other member of the Purchaser’s Group shall, provide such information as Novartis requires in order
for Novartis to calculate the Tax payable or accountable for by the employer in respect of such bonus payments; and 

  

	 	4.5.5	the 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


  

	 	4.5.6	Novartis shall reimburse the Purchaser for the aggregate bonuses advised by Novartis 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 Option Closing Statement. 

  

	5	Protection of terms and conditions and termination rights post-Option Closing 

  

	5.1	Without prejudice to paragraph 5.4 below, the Purchaser shall procure that for a period of 24 months following the Option Closing Date: 


 

	 	5.1.1	each 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; 


  
  

127 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	5.1.2	each 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 Option
Closing Date; and 

  

	 	5.1.3	no 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. 

  

	5.2	The Purchaser confirms that, following the Option 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. 

  

	5.3	Novartis 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. 

  

	5.4	If the employment of any Transferred Employee is terminated by reason of redundancy within 24 months following the Option 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
Option Closing Date onwards) (but excluding Employee Benefits) as were applicable in respect of the particular Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Option Closing Date, to the extent that such policies and benefits are notified in writing
to the Purchaser prior to the Option Closing Date. If, at any time during the 24 month period immediately following the Option 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). 


  
  

128 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	5.5	For 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.


  

	6	Benefits arrangements/service continuity 

  

	6.1	Each Transferred Employee shall have their service with the Novartis 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 Option 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: 


 

	 	6.1.1	any 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 Appendix 11; 


 

	 	6.1.2	duplication of benefit; 

  

	 	6.1.3	recognition 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 


 

	 	6.1.4	recognition 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. 


 

	6.2	Without 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 Option 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 Novartis shall compensate the Purchaser for such matters (again excluding normal accrued but
untaken annual leave for the year current as at Option Closing) by paying the Purchaser an amount equal to that value, less any amount actually accrued and transferred to the Purchaser for such matters. 


  
  

129 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	6.3	With 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 Option Closing Date, the
Purchaser shall: 

  

	 	6.3.1	waive 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 a
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 employees under welfare plans maintained by Novartis or other members of the Novartis Group prior to the Option Closing Date; and 


 

	 	6.3.2	provide each Transferred Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Option 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 Option Closing occurs, to the extent credited under the welfare plans maintained by Novartis or other members of the Novartis Group prior to the Option Closing Date. 


 

	7	US Transferred Employees 

  

	7.1	To 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 Novartis Group (“Relevant Employer’s FSAs”), as in effect immediately prior to the Option 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 Option Closing Date occurs that are submitted for payment on or after the Option Closing Date,
whether arising before, on or after the Option Closing Date, under the Purchaser’s FSAs. As soon as practicable but no more than 45 days following the Option Closing Date, Novartis 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 Option Closing Date occurs by or on behalf of the US Transferred Employees prior to the Option Closing Date, reduced
by (ii) the sum of all claims incurred in the calendar year in which the Option Closing Date occurs that are submitted to the Relevant Employer for payment prior to the Option 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 Novartis (on behalf of the Relevant Employer) as
soon as practicable following the end of the calendar year in which the Option Closing Date occurs, the amount by which (ii) exceeds (i). 


  
  

130 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	7.2	With effect on and from the Option 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 Option Closing Date and their eligible dependents. 

  

	8	Shared Employees 

 After the date of this Deed, Novartis shall identify any Shared
Employees who work wholly or substantially in the Business but who are not Influenza Group Company Employees or Influenza Business Employees. In consultation with the Purchaser, Novartis will procure that an Influenza Group Company will offer
employment to any such employee before the Option Closing Date, to take effect from immediately before the Option Closing Date (provided that such employee continues to work wholly or substantially in the Business until the Option Closing Date) or,
where that is not reasonably practicable or there is no Influenza Group Company in the country in which the employee works, the Purchaser shall treat such employee as if he or she were an Influenza Business Employee (provided that such employee
continues to work wholly or substantially in the Business until the Option Closing Date) and the provisions of this Appendix 10 will apply to him or her and further provided, however, that these arrangements will apply to no more than 10 full time
equivalent employees. 
  

	9	International 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 any tax equalisation agreement entered into between an International Assignee and a member of the Novartis Group provided that such employee becomes a Transferred Employee and Novartis has disclosed to the
Purchaser the template international assignment terms of the Novartis Group prior to the Option Closing Date.

 Execution Version 
  

 

	10	Liability for retention arrangements 

 Novartis or any other member of the Novartis 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 Deed. To the extent that details of such retention arrangements are disclosed to the Purchaser
prior to the Option Closing Date, and in respect of arrangements put in place after the date of this Deed, with the agreement of the Purchaser, 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 Option 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. Novartis 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 Option Closing Date.
Novartis acknowledges that the Purchaser may ask Novartis to put in place more generous retention arrangements than those proposed by Novartis (including, where practicable, putting in place retention arrangements which last for a period of at least
six months following Option Closing) and will not unreasonably withhold consent to such arrangements provided that any incremental cost of such arrangements over and above the cost of Novartis’s own proposals will be for the Purchaser’s
account. Novartis will provide the Purchaser with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to allow such payments to be made. 
  

	11	Share-based incentive schemes 

  

	11.1	This paragraph 11 applies notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed. 

  

	11.2	Subject to paragraph 11.10, 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 the Novartis Group (“Relevant 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 Relevant 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), Novartis and the Purchaser agree that performance shall be deemed “on target”. 


  
  

132 








 Execution Version 
  

For the avoidance of doubt: 
  

	 	(A)	where necessary and subject to (B), 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”; 

  

	 	(B)	Novartis (or relevant member of the Novartis 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 (including the loss of any Tax-favourable treatment), the Novartis Group or the Purchaser’s Group. 

 For the
purposes of this paragraph 11.2, the “good leaver treatment” shall be that: 
  

	 	(C)	Relevant Awards shall not lapse or be forfeited as a result of Option Closing except to the extent that they do not vest in accordance with (D) and/or (E) below; 


 

	 	(D)	Relevant Awards shall vest early as a result of Option 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 the Novartis Group (calculated on the basis of the number of years of service as at the Option Closing Date, where part years of service are rounded up); and 


 

	 	(E)	Relevant Awards that vest after the Option Closing Date shall remain subject to any relevant performance (or other) conditions, adjusted as necessary to take account of Option Closing and measured up to the applicable
early vesting date. 

 For the purposes of this paragraph 11.2, “on target” performance shall not be construed as
permitting share-based awards to vest in full. 
  

	11.3	Novartis 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 Relevant Awards, including any Tax. The
Purchaser agrees to use its best endeavours to seek any applicable Tax relief in respect of the Relevant Awards and to indemnify 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.

 Execution Version 
  

 

	11.4	Subject to paragraph 11.5, Novartis undertakes to inform the Purchaser of the vesting or exercise (as applicable) of the Relevant Awards and to provide, in a timely manner, details of the Relevant Awards that so
vest or are exercised so that the Purchaser’s Group can make any applicable withholdings for Tax and to pay any Tax for which the Purchaser’s Group is liable in respect of the Relevant Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any
applicable timescale. 

  

	11.5	To the extent permitted under the relevant plan rules and any Applicable Law, Novartis undertakes to sell such number of the shares underlying the Relevant 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. 

  

	11.6	Novartis undertakes to procure that each relevant member of the Novartis Group will pay any Tax for which such member is liable in respect of the Relevant Awards to the relevant Tax Authority within any
applicable timescale. 

  

	11.7	Novartis undertakes to procure the completion of any relevant Tax Return in respect of the Relevant Awards and to procure the submission of any such Tax Return to the relevant Tax Authority within any applicable
timescale.

 Execution Version 
  

 

	11.8	This paragraph shall apply where Relevant Awards lapse or are forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) either in whole or in part as a result of Option Closing. As soon as practicable following Option Closing
(and, in any event, by the later of 30 days from the Option Closing Date and 30 days from the first date after the Option 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), the Purchaser (or member of the Purchaser’s Group) shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of the Purchaser substantially equal in value (valued
as at the date of grant) to the value of the portion of their Relevant Awards which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Option Closing (valued as at the Option 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 Option Closing in connection with any Relevant Award which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Option Closing (each a “Relevant Matching Award”), and
(ii) such Relevant Matching Award has not been granted (or will not be granted) as a result of Option Closing, on or around the date on which such Relevant Matching Award would, in the ordinary course of business, have been made by Novartis (or
a member of the Novartis Group), the Purchaser (or member of the Purchaser’s Group) shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of the Purchaser substantially equal in value (valued as at the
date of grant) to the value of such Relevant 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 shall be granted
pursuant to the rules of whichever share-based incentive plan operated by the Purchaser’s Group at the time of grant the Purchaser considers most closely aligned to the share-based incentive plan operated by the Novartis Group pursuant to which
the related Relevant Award had been granted (or related Relevant 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
Relevant Award or related Relevant Matching Award if Option Closing had not occurred. In such cases: 
  

	 	(a)	the Purchaser undertakes to seek any applicable Tax relief in respect of the Compensation Awards and Matching Awards and to indemnify Novartis in respect of 50 per cent 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; 

  

	 	(b)	where a Compensation Award or Matching Award is granted in the form of a restricted share award, the Purchaser undertakes to obtain 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 either party makes representations to the other party to waive this obligation in respect of certain
Compensation Awards or certain Matching Awards and the other party consents to such waiver (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), this paragraph (b) shall not apply in respect of such Compensation Awards or Matching Awards; and



  
  

135 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	(c)	Novartis 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 such Compensation Awards and Matching Awards,
including any Tax, provided that: 

  

	 	(i)	Novartis shall not indemnify the Purchaser (or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group) to the extent that the Purchaser (or member of the Purchaser’s Group) compensates Transferred Employees for any loss (or
expected loss) of Tax-favourable treatment in respect of Relevant Awards or for any Liabilities to Tax as contemplated in paragraph 11.9 below; and 

  

	 	(ii)	Novartis only agrees to indemnify the Purchaser (or member of the Purchaser’s Group) to a maximum of 50 per cent of the total of (i) the value of the portion of such Relevant Awards that lapsed or was
forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Option Closing, (ii) the value of the Relevant Matching Awards, and (iii) any related Liabilities, including any Tax; 


 

	 	(iii)	for the avoidance of doubt, Novartis shall not indemnify the Purchaser (or any member of 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 a Relevant Award which
lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Option Closing shall not exceed the difference between (i) the value of the Relevant Award which could reasonably have been expected to vest on the normal vesting date but
for Option Closing (subject, where applicable, to performance (or other) conditions), and (ii) the value of the Relevant Award which actually vested (or will vest) as a result of Option Closing. 

For the purposes of this paragraph 11.8: 
  

	 	(a)	the portion of a Relevant Award which lapsed or was forfeited (or will lapse or be forfeited) as a result of Option 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 Option Closing; 

  

	 	(b)	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 the Purchaser over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant;


  

	 	(c)	the value of a Relevant 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; 

  

	 	(d)	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 the Purchaser over the five trading days immediately prior to the date of grant; and


  

	 	(e)	any currency conversion shall be made in accordance with Clause 1.10 of this Deed.

 Execution Version 
  

 

	11.9	To the extent that any payment to a Transferred Employee (whether by the Novartis 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 11.9 shall apply mutatis mutandis.


  

	11.10	This paragraph 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 Novartis
or another member of the Novartis Group on the basis of performance criteria linked to the Novartis 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) Option Closing occurs prior to the grant of such 2014 Performance Award. As soon as practicable following Option Closing (and, in any event, by the later of 30 days from the Option Closing
Date and 30 days from the date when the value of each 2014 Performance Award has been determined), Novartis shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the value of each 2014 Performance Award and under which share-based incentive plan operated by the
Novartis 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), the Purchaser (or member of the Purchaser’s Group)
shall grant each relevant Transferred Employee a share-based award over shares in the capital of the Purchaser 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 Option Closing. Such 2014 Performance Awards shall be granted pursuant to the rules of whichever share-based incentive plan operated by the Purchaser’s Group at the time of grant the Purchaser considers most closely
aligned to the share-based incentive plan operated by the Novartis Group pursuant to which the related 2014 Performance Award would have been granted. In such cases: 


 

	 	(a)	the Purchaser undertakes to seek any applicable Tax relief in respect of the 2014 Performance Awards and to indemnify 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; 

  

	 	(b)	where a 2014 Performance Award is granted in the form of a restricted share award, the Purchaser undertakes to obtain 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 either party makes representations to the other party to waive this obligation in respect of certain 2014 Performance
Awards and the other party consents to such waiver (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), this paragraph (b) shall not apply in respect of such 2014 Performance Awards; and 


  
  

137 








 Execution Version 
  

	 	(c)	Novartis 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 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) operated by the Purchaser’s Group following Option Closing. 

For the purposes of this paragraph 11.10: 
  

	 	(a)	the value of a 2014 Performance Award to be granted shall: (i) be determined by Novartis acting reasonably and in good faith, (ii) be consistent with past practice and with the level of similar awards granted
to employees remaining in service within the Novartis Group, (iii) take into account the relevant business and/or individual performance criteria linked to the Novartis’s Group’s 2014 financial year, and (iv) if Option Closing
occurs before 31 December 2014, be time pro-rated to take account of the reduced period of time, as a proportion of the Novartis’s Group’s 2014 financial year, that the relevant Transferred Employee worked within the Novartis Group
(calculated on the basis of the number of complete months of service as at the Option Closing Date); 

  

	 	(b)	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 the Purchaser over the five trading days immediately prior to the
date of grant; and 

  

	 	(c)	any currency conversion shall be made in accordance with Clause 1.10 of this Deed. 

  

	11.11	This paragraph shall apply if any member of the Novartis 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 the Purchaser), subject to the rules of any relevant
share-based incentive scheme and any Applicable Law, and the provisions of paragraph 11.8 shall apply.

Appendix 11 
 Employee
Benefits 
 (Paragraph 2.4.2) 
 In
this Appendix 11: 
 “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. 

“Novartis Funding Assumptions” means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, if there is a local obligation or practice prior to
the date of this Deed 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 Deed (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 Deed – regardless of whether the plan is in fact fully funded on that basis at any relevant time). 

“Novartis IFRS Assumptions” means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, the method and assumptions used by the Novartis Group
(or the most relevant member thereof) most recently prior to the date of this Deed to value those Transferred Employee Benefits for IFRS accounting purposes. 

“Partial Liquidation Longstop Date” means, in relation to each of Novartis Pensionskasse 1, Novartis Pensionskasse 2, and Kaderkasse
Novartis, the earlier of (i) the date after Option Closing on which the plan undergoes partial liquidation, and (ii) 12 months after Option Closing. 

“Purchaser Funding Assumptions” means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, where a member of the Purchaser’s 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 Deed 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 Deed (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 Deed – regardless of whether the plan is in fact fully funded on that basis at any
relevant time).

 Execution Version 
  

“Purchaser IFRS Assumptions” means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits, where a member of the Purchaser’s 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 Deed to value those similar or comparable benefits by the Purchaser’s Group (or any relevant member thereof) for IFRS accounting purposes. 

“Swiss Actuary” means an actuary: (a) who can reasonably be viewed: (i) as independent of both the Purchaser and Novartis; and
(ii) as familiar with Swiss pension issues; and (b) whom the Purchaser and Novartis 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 Novartis and the Purchaser. 

“Swiss Assumptions” means, in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits in Switzerland, the Novartis IFRS Assumptions adjusted: 

 

	 	(a)	by replacing any assumed “cash balance” annuity conversion rate in the Novartis IFRS Assumptions with a conversion rate which the Swiss Actuary certifies to the Purchaser 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 the Purchaser); and 

  

	 	(b)	by removing any reserve for death or disability benefits to the extent that the Swiss Actuary certifies to the Purchaser 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 without introducing a new ongoing cost on the Purchaser which was not reflected in the Accounts.

 Execution Version 
  

For the purposes of each of the Purchaser Funding Assumptions, the Purchaser IFRS Assumptions, the Novartis Funding Assumptions, the Novartis IFRS Assumptions
and the Swiss 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 Option Closing (or the latest practicable time prior to Option Closing). 
  

	1	Except to the extent otherwise requested by Novartis and expressly agreed by the Purchaser before Option Closing (such Purchaser agreement not to be unreasonably withheld to the extent that it is not reasonably possible
for Novartis or its Affiliates to retain the relevant Employee Benefit Liabilities – for example, where an Influenza Group Company operates its own standalone arrangement, liability for which cannot lawfully be assumed by another member of the
Novartis 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 Influenza Group or with
any member of the Novartis Group (including any Influenza Group Company) or in any plan or arrangement in which any member of the Novartis Group (including any Influenza Group Company) participates or has participated: 


 

	 	(a)	(in the case of a Transferred Employee) prior to Option 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 Novartis or its Affiliates (excluding any Influenza Group Company) and Novartis shall fully indemnify the Purchaser and its Affiliates (which for the avoidance of doubt in the period from Option
Closing includes any Influenza 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 the
Novartis Group (including any Influenza Group Company) participates or participated prior to Option Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser’s agreement under this paragraph 1 may, if the Purchaser so determines, relate only to
certain specified categories or tranches of 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. 
  

	2	Where and to the extent that the Purchaser 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 Option Closing includes any Influenza 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 Appendix 11. Subject to being so compensated but without prejudice to
paragraphs 9 and 11, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that its relevant Affiliate shall, assume, with a full discharge for Novartis and its Affiliates, the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. 


  
  

141 








 Execution Version 
  

Without limiting the Purchaser’s obligation not unreasonably to withhold consent under paragraph 1 above, the Purchaser acknowledges its
agreement to the principle that the post-retirement medical healthcare plan to which it admits US Transferred Employees who immediately before Option Closing were members of such a plan will take account of periods of employment with the Novartis
Group to the extent previously recognised under the equivalent Novartis Group plan for the purposes of determining eligibility, contributions, and vesting; therefore, subject to appropriate identification during the period before Option Closing of
such liabilities and to the operation of the compensation mechanism set out in this Appendix 11, they will become Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. 

Without limiting the Purchaser’s obligation not unreasonably to withhold consent under paragraph 1 above, the parties hereby acknowledge
that it would not be reasonably possible for Novartis or its Affiliates to retain those Pre-Closing EB Liabilities which attach to the Influenza Group Companies in relation to the Chiron UK Pension Scheme (formerly known as the “Powderject
Pension Scheme”) (the “Agreed UK Scheme”). So, subject to appropriate identification during the period before Option Closing of such liabilities and to the operation of the compensation mechanism set out in this Appendix 11,
and the liabilities will become Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Agreed UK Scheme will transfer to the Purchaser. Novartis acknowledges that the Purchaser’s agreement to this is expressly based on
Novartis’s belief, as confirmed to it by the Purchaser, that the following documents relate to the Agreed UK Scheme: 
  

	 	A.	the document titled “Chiron UK Pension Scheme - Actuarial Report as at 31 December 2012” and signed for identification purposes on or around 22 April 2014 by Eleanor Hart of Slaughter and May
and John Gordon of Linklaters LLP; and 

  

	 	B.	the 2001 rules (when the Agreed UK Scheme was called the Powderject Pension Scheme) which were disclosed to the Purchaser prior to the date of this Deed, 


and that if either of these beliefs should not be correct, then it will be reasonable for the Purchaser to refuse to agree that the Pre-Closing
EB Liabilities associated with the Agreed UK Scheme should become Transferred Employee Benefits Liabilities and instead to require Novartis to procure that the Influenza Group Companies have no further liabilities to or in respect of the Agreed UK
Scheme prior to Option Closing. 

  
  

142 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	3	The value of the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities shall be determined on employee census data and plan provision as at Option Closing: 


 

	 	A.	in relation to any Transferred Employee Benefits in Switzerland, the Swiss Assumptions; and 

  

	 	B.	in relation to any other Transferred Employee Benefits, the Novartis IFRS Assumptions, PROVIDED that if any of the following values is available and is greater than the value derived using the Novartis IFRS
Assumptions then that value will be used instead (and if more than one of these values is available then the one which would place the greatest value on the relevant Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities will be used): 


 

	 	(i)	if a member of the Purchaser’s 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 Novartis IFRS Assumptions and the Purchaser IFRS Assumptions; 

  

	 	(ii)	if there is a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Deed to pre-fund or externally fund the Transferred Employee Benefits to a funding target which is determined by reference to a method and assumptions
other than IFRS, the value derived using the Novartis Funding Assumptions; and 

  

	 	(iii)	if there is both: (i) a local obligation or practice prior to the date of this Deed to pre-fund or externally fund the Transferred Employee Benefits to a funding target which is determined by reference to a method
and assumptions other than IFRS; and (ii) a member of the Purchaser’s 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 Novartis Funding Assumptions and the Purchaser Funding Assumptions. 


The market value as at Option Closing of any underlying assets related to the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities which are or are to be
transferred as 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), Novartis shall pay or procure payment, by way of a reduction in the Purchase Price attributable to the Shares or the particular part of the Influenza 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 Novartis. 

  
  

143 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	4	Novartis and its Affiliates shall, within 45 days after Option 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 Influenza Business Employees. The actuary chosen by
Novartis shall provide the actuary chosen by the Purchaser 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 Option Closing (or, in the case of Switzerland, 90 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop Date). The actuary chosen by the Purchaser
shall review the calculation of the Employee Benefit Indemnification Amounts of Novartis’s actuary within 120 days following Option 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 parties within 180 days following the Option Closing Date (or, in the case of Switzerland, 180 days after the Partial Liquidation Longstop
Date). 

  

	5	If the parties cannot agree on any Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount within the 180-day period referred to in paragraph 4, the parties shall appoint within 5 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 the parties. The cost of any independent actuary shall
be borne jointly by the parties. 

  

	6	In connection with the procedures referred to in this Appendix 11, the parties shall provide each other and the actuaries referred to in this Appendix 11 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 Appendix 11 must be accurate and complete in all material respects.

	7	Each Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount shall be paid by Novartis (by way of a reduction in the Purchase Price attributable to the Shares or the particular part of the Influenza Group to which the payment
relates) within 14 days following its final determination. Novartis 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 Novartis notified pursuant to Paragraph 6.4 of Schedule 1 was intended to relate to that Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount). Each Employee Benefit Indemnification Amount shall include
interest calculated from (and including) the Option 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 the 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 1.10 of this Deed on the Option Closing Date. 


 

	8	To the extent (if any) that there are any Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities which prior to Option 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 Novartis before Option 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-Option Closing trust or other vehicle to the extent that such assets relate to the Transferred Employee Benefit Liabilities. 


 

	9	If, within one year of Option Closing, Novartis 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, Novartis 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 Novartis’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 Novartis’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 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, Novartis 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 paragraph (a) or determined under paragraph (b). 

  

	 	(d)	If as a consequence of paragraph (c), Novartis 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
paragraph (d) at a rate per annum of LIBOR. Such interest shall accrue from day to day.

 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	(e)	If as a consequence of paragraph (c), Novartis 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 Option Closing Date to (and including) the date the payment is made in full in accordance with this
paragraph (e) at a rate per annum of LIBOR. Such interest shall accrue from day to day. 

  

	10	Except as otherwise agreed by Novartis, 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 the payment or transfer, the Purchaser shall pay to Novartis (for itself or 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 by way of an increase in the Purchase Price in respect of the relevant Shares or the particular part of the Influenza Group. 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. 


 

	11	Novartis 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 Option Closing by reason of any change or purported change made to the terms of any Transferred Employee Benefits prior to Option Closing proving to be or have been legally ineffective or by reason of such terms and/or benefits
failing to comply with any mandatory legal requirements (excluding any obligation to equalise guaranteed minimum pensions in the United Kingdom). Novartis 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 Novartis under this paragraph 11, the Purchaser shall as soon as reasonably practicable give notice in writing to Novartis 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 Novartis 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 Option Closing Date. 

  

	12	Notwithstanding any general provision to the contrary in Appendix 10 and subject to being compensated in accordance with this Appendix 11, the Purchaser shall admit Transferred Employees in the United States who
participated in a post-retirement medical plan immediately prior to Option Closing to its own post-retirement medical plan. Subject to being compensated in accordance with this Appendix 11, periods of employment with the Novartis Group (including,
without limitation, any current or former Affiliate of Novartis, to the extent previously recognised under the applicable benefit plan arrangement provided by the Novartis 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.

	13	Notwithstanding any general provision to the contrary in Appendix 10, the US Transferred Employees shall, as of the Option 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. 


 

	14	The parties agree that where any Transferred Employee has accrued defined contribution benefits prior to Option Closing in a Novartis Group arrangement then: 


 

	14.1	Novartis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to procure the vesting of those benefits (if they would otherwise lapse as a result of Option Closing); 


 

	14.2	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 the Novartis Group arrangement to a Purchaser’s Group arrangement; and 

  

	14.3	for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser will comply with the provisions of paragraph 6.1 of Appendix 10.

Appendix 13 
 Allocation
of Purchase Price 
 (Paragraphs 3.3 and 7.6) 
  

	1	Novartis and the Purchaser agree that the Purchase Price (and any adjustments thereto) and the Assumed Liabilities shall be allocated for Tax purposes among the Shares and the Influenza Group Businesses in accordance
with Applicable Law (the “Allocation”). 

  

	2	From the Option Exercise Date and prior to the Option Closing Date and subject always to paragraph 1, Novartis and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to reach an agreement as to the Allocation of the Purchase
Price and the Assumed Liabilities to the Shares, and to any Influenza Group Businesses that are subject to transfer Taxes or VAT, or where a valuation of a particular Influenza Group Business prior to Option Closing is otherwise required by
Applicable Law (each a “Required Item”). 

  

	3	Failing agreement between the parties on the Allocation in respect of any Required Item in accordance with this Appendix 13, the Allocation shall be determined by the Reporting Accountants on the application of Novartis
or the Purchaser. Paragraphs 1.7 to 1.13 of Part 1 of Appendix 16 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the engagement and determination of the Reporting Accountants pursuant to this paragraph 3. 


 

	4	Novartis and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to further allocate the Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities among the Influenza Group Businesses for which an allocation was not agreed prior to Option Closing
within 90 calendar days after the Option Closing Date. If Novartis and the Purchaser reach written agreement within such 90 day period, the Allocation, as so amended, shall become binding upon Novartis and the Purchaser as the “Final
Allocation Schedule”. 

  

	5	Novartis and the Purchaser shall, and shall procure that each of their Affiliates will, file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation Schedule, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, and
shall take no position inconsistent with the Final Allocation Schedule in any proceedings before any Governmental Entity or otherwise. 

  

	6	If Novartis and the Purchaser are unable to agree to an Allocation pursuant to paragraph 4, the matter shall be determined by the Reporting Accountants on the application of Novartis or the Purchaser. Paragraphs 1.7 to
1.13 of Part 1 of Appendix 16 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the engagement and determination of the Reporting Accountants pursuant to this paragraph 6.

Appendix 14 
 VAT 

(Paragraph 3.4) 
  

	1	VAT: Records 

  

	1.1	Novartis may, on or before the date of Option 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 Influenza Group and, where any such direction is obtained, Novartis shall: 

  

	 	1.1.1	preserve 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 


 

	 	1.1.2	allow 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. 


 

	1.2	If no such direction as is referred to in paragraph 1.1 above is obtained on or before the date of Option Closing and any documents in the possession or control of a member of Novartis’s Group are required by law
to be preserved by the Purchaser, Novartis shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after Option Closing, deliver such documents to the Purchaser. 

  

	2	VAT: Going Concern - EU Member States 

  

	2.1	Novartis 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 Taxation Authority or entering into a written
agreement) to secure that, to the extent reasonably possible, the sale of all or any part of the Influenza 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. 

  

	2.2	Each 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 Influenza 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 Paragraph
3.4.3) in accordance with that ruling. Novartis 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 Novartis under paragraph 4 below. 

  

	2.3	Insofar as no ruling has been obtained from a relevant Tax Authority prior to Option Closing, Novartis shall determine in good faith if (or the extent to which) VAT is payable in respect of the sale of the
Influenza Group Businesses and shall be entitled to charge (or not to charge) VAT to the Purchaser in accordance with such determination. 

  

	3	VAT: Going Concern - non-EU Jurisdictions 


  
  

149 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	3.1	To 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,
Novartis 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 Influenza Group Businesses (insofar as the business of the Influenza Group is carried on in the relevant state) under this Deed. 


 

	3.2	The 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 Influenza Group Businesses, so far as the business of the Influenza
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 Paragraph 3.4.3) in accordance with that ruling. Novartis 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 Purchaser 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 Novartis under paragraph 4 below. Insofar as no ruling has been obtained from a relevant Tax Authority prior to
Option Closing, Novartis shall determine in good faith if (or the extent to which) VAT is payable in respect of the sale of the Influenza Group Businesses and shall be entitled to charge (or not to charge) VAT to the Purchaser in accordance with
such determination. 

  

	4	VAT: Time, Manner and Currency of Payment 

  

	4.1	Any amounts which the Purchaser is obliged to pay to Novartis under this Deed 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
Novartis or to such member of the Novartis Group as Novartis 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. 


 

	4.2	Subject 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 Option Closing of any of the Influenza Group Businesses or Shares
shall be paid in accordance with paragraph 4.1 above at Option Closing against production of a valid VAT invoice (or equivalent, if any). 

  

	4.3	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed, the Purchaser shall not be liable to account to Novartis or any member of the Novartis Group for or in respect of penalties or interest arising solely from the failure
of Novartis or any other member of the Novartis Group to account promptly for VAT to the relevant Tax Authority following Novartis having been placed in the appropriate amount of funds for that purpose by the Purchaser.

Part 1 
 Preparation of
Option Closing Statement 
  

	1	Preparation 

  

	1.1	No later than 60 days following Option Closing, Novartis shall deliver to the Purchaser the Draft Option Closing Statement. Prior to such delivery, Novartis shall so far as is practicable consult with the Purchaser with
a view to reducing the potential areas of disagreement. 

  

	1.2	In order to enable Novartis to prepare the Draft Option Closing Statement, the Purchaser shall keep up-to-date and, subject to reasonable notice, make available to Novartis’s representatives and to Novartis’s
accountants all books and records relating to the Influenza Group during normal office hours and co-operate with them with regard to the preparation, review and agreement or determination of the Draft Option Closing Statement. The Purchaser agrees
to make available the services of the employees of the Influenza Group to assist Novartis in the preparation, review and agreement or determination of the Draft Option Closing Statement. 


 

	1.3	In order to allow the Purchaser to review the Draft Closing Statement, Novartis 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 Vaccines Group during normal office hours and co-operate with them with regard to their review of the Draft Closing Statement. Novartis agrees to make available the services of the employees of Novartis and its
Affiliates to assist the Purchaser in its review of the Draft Closing Statement. 

  

	1.4	If the Purchaser does not within 60 days of presentation to it of the Draft Option Closing Statement give notice to Novartis that it disagrees with the Draft Option 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 the Draft Option Closing Statement (the “Purchaser’s Disagreement Notice”),
the Draft Option Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes. If the Purchaser gives a valid Purchaser’s Disagreement Notice within such 60 days, Novartis and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to reach
agreement in respect of the Draft Option Closing Statement and, if they are unable to do so within 30 days of such notification, Novartis or the Purchaser may by notice to the other require that the Draft Option Closing Statement be referred to the
Reporting Accountants (an “Appointment Notice”). 

  

	1.5	Within 30 days of the giving of an Appointment Notice, Novartis may by notice to the Purchaser indicate that, in the light of the fact that the Purchaser has not accepted the Draft Option Closing Statement in its
entirety, it wishes the Reporting Accountants to consider matters relating to the Draft Option Closing Statement in addition to those specified in the Purchaser’s Disagreement Notice, provided that such matters as are related to the matters
specified in the Purchaser’s Disagreement Notice and that the notice states in reasonable detail the reasons why and in what respects Novartis believes that the Draft Option Closing Statement should be altered in respect of such matters (the
“Novartis’s Disagreement Notice”).

 Execution Version 
  

 

	1.6	The Reporting Accountants shall be engaged jointly by Novartis and the Purchaser on the terms set out in this paragraph 1 and otherwise on such terms as shall be agreed; provided that neither Novartis nor the Purchaser
shall unreasonably (having regard, inter alia, to the provisions of this paragraph 1) refuse its agreement to terms proposed by the Reporting Accountants or by the other party. If the terms of engagement of the Reporting Accountants have not been
settled within 45 days of their identity having been determined (or such longer period as Novartis and the Purchaser may agree) then, unless Novartis or the Purchaser is unreasonably refusing its agreement to those terms, those accountants shall be
deemed never to have become the Reporting Accountants and new Reporting Accountants shall be selected in accordance with the provisions of this Deed. 

  

	1.7	Except to the extent that Novartis and the Purchaser agree otherwise, the Reporting Accountants shall determine their own procedure but: 


 

	 	1.7.1	apart from procedural matters and as otherwise set out in this Deed shall determine only: 

  

	 	(i)	whether any of the arguments for an alteration to the Draft Option Closing Statement put forward in the Purchaser’s Disagreement Notice or Novartis’s Disagreement Notice is correct in whole or in part; and


  

	 	(ii)	if so, what alterations should be made to the Draft Option Closing Statement in order to correct the relevant inaccuracy in it; 

  

	 	1.7.2	shall apply the accounting principles, policies, procedures, practices and estimation techniques as set out in Part 2 of this Appendix; 


 

	 	1.7.3	shall make their determination pursuant to paragraph 1.7.1 as soon as is reasonably practicable; 

  

	 	1.7.4	the procedure of the Reporting Accountants shall: 

  

	 	(i)	give Novartis and Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to make written and oral representations to them; 

  

	 	(ii)	require that each party supply the other with a copy of any written representations at the same time as they are made to the Reporting Accountants; 


 

	 	(iii)	permit each party to be present while oral submissions are being made by the other party; and 

  

	 	(iv)	for the avoidance of doubt, the Reporting Accountants shall not be entitled to determine the scope of their own jurisdiction. 

  

	1.8	The Reporting Accountants shall send Novartis and the Purchaser a copy of their determination pursuant to paragraph 1.7.1 within one month of their appointment. Such determination: 


 

	 	1.8.1	shall be made available to Novartis and the Purchaser in writing; and 

  

	 	1.8.2	unless otherwise agreed by Novartis and the Purchaser, shall include reasons for each relevant determination. 


  
  

154 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	1.9	The Reporting Accountants shall act as experts and not as arbitrators and their determination of any matter falling within their jurisdiction shall be final and binding on Novartis and the Purchaser save in the
event of manifest error (when the relevant part of their determination shall be void and the matter shall be remitted to the Reporting Accountants for correction). In particular, their determination shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Draft
Option Closing Statement. 

  

	1.10	The expenses (including amounts in respect of VAT) of the Reporting Accountants shall be borne as they shall direct at the time they make any determination under paragraph 1.7.1(i) or, failing such direction,
equally between the Purchaser and Novartis. 

  

	1.11	Novartis and the Purchaser shall co-operate with the Reporting Accountants and comply with their reasonable requests made in connection with the carrying out of their duties under this Deed. In particular,
Purchaser shall keep up-to-date and, subject to reasonable notice, make available to Novartis’s representatives, Novartis’s accountants and the Reporting Accountants all books and records relating to the Influenza Group during normal
office hours as Novartis or the Reporting Accountants may reasonably request during the period from the appointment of the Reporting Accountants down to the making of the relevant determination. 


 

	1.12	Nothing in this Appendix 16 shall entitle a party or the Reporting Accountants access to any information or document which is protected by legal professional or litigation privilege, provided that neither
Novartis nor the Purchaser shall be entitled to refuse to supply such part or parts of documents as contain only the facts on which the relevant claim or argument is based. 


 

	1.13	Each party and the Reporting Accountants shall, and shall procure that its accountants and other advisers shall, keep all information and documents provided to them pursuant to this paragraph 1 confidential and
shall not use the same for any purpose, except for disclosure or use in connection with the preparation of the Draft Option Closing Statement, the proceedings of the Reporting Accountants or another matter arising out of this Deed.

Purchaser shall obtain all US Government consents necessary for such novation as soon as possible and shall keep each other informed of progress in obtaining such consents. Novartis shall deliver to the Purchaser, on Option Closing, or, if such
consents have not been received at Option Closing, as soon as possible after receipt, copies of any such consent executed by the appropriate parties. 

  

	2	Obligations of the Parties 

  

	2.1	Each party shall use all reasonable endeavours to procure the novation of the US Government Contracts in accordance with this Part 2. The Parties shall perform their respective obligations under the Applicable FAR
Regulations in order to consummate the novation of the US Government Contracts. 

  

	2.2	Without limitation of and subject to the Applicable FAR Regulations: 

  

	 	(a)	Novartis shall begin discussions with the Responsible Contracting Officer (as defined in the Applicable FAR Regulations) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Option Exercise Date, and in doing so shall use its
reasonable endeavours to identify any possible issues with, or objections to, the Transaction and/or the proposed novation of US Government Contracts that the Responsible Contracting Officer and/or US Government might raise; 


 

	 	(b)	the parties shall use their reasonable endeavours to negotiate, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Option Exercise Date and, in any event, no less than 45 Business Days before the intended Option Closing Date,
documentation in Agreed Terms to be entered into as at the Option Closing Date providing for such sub-contracting arrangements as would customarily apply in a transaction such as the Transaction during the period between closing and the novation of
contracts in accordance with the Applicable FAR Regulations and consistent with the following principles: 

  

	 	(i)	during the relevant period, the Purchaser will perform Novartis’s obligations under the relevant US Government Contracts to the extent permissible under the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”);


  

	 	(ii)	during the relevant period, Novartis will perform its obligations under the relevant US Government Contracts to the extent necessary to entitle it to payment from the US Government for the work performed under such
contracts; and 

  

	 	(iii)	any payments made by the US Government during the relevant period in respect of the relevant contracts shall promptly be paid over to the Purchaser; 


 

	 	(c)	where US Government consent is required before implementing the sub-contracting arrangements described in sub-paragraph (b) above and such consent is not obtained prior to Option Closing, the parties shall put in
place an arrangement between them which achieves substantially the same economic effect as would have been achieved had the sub-contracting arrangements described in sub-paragraph (b) been implemented;

relation to contracts with the US Government, as the parties shall agree or, failing agreement, such firm as is appointed on application by either party by the President of the American Bar Association (the “Firm”). The Firm shall

determination and copied at the same time to the other; 

  

	 	(ii)	following delivery of their respective submissions, the parties shall each have the opportunity to comment once only on the other’s submission by written comment delivered to the Firm not later than seven days
after receipt of the other’s submission and, thereafter, neither party shall be entitled to make further statements or submissions except insofar as the Firm so requests (in which case it shall, on each occasion, give the other party (unless
otherwise directed) five days to respond to any statements or submission so made); 

  

	 	(iii)	in giving his/her determination, the Firm shall state his/her reasons for his/her determination; and 

  

	 	(iv)	the Firm shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) in making his/her determination which shall, in the absence of manifest error or fraud, be final and binding on the parties (subject to the Firm’s
determination being compatible with Applicable Law) and, without prejudice to any other rights which they may respectively have under this Deed, the parties expressly waive, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any rights of recourse they may
otherwise have to challenge it; 

  

	 	(e)	the parties shall each be responsible for their own costs in connection with the novation of the US Government Contracts. The fees and expenses of the Firm, if appointed, shall be borne equally between the parties or in
such other proportions as the Firm shall determine.

Appendix 22 
 Statement of
Net Assets 
 (Paragraph 1.1) 

Part 1 
 Statement of Net
Assets Rules 
 Part 1 

Statement of Net Assets Rules 
 Part 1 of
Appendix 22 comprises the Statement of Net Assets Rules. 
 Part 2 of Appendix 22 sets forth, for illustrative purposes only, a computation of the Statement
of Net Assets as of the close of business on 31 December 2013 (the “Statement of Net Assets”). 
  

	1	Preparation of the Statement of Net Assets 

  

	1.1	Period 

 The Statements of Net Assets is prepared as of the close of business on the
final day of the relevant calendar month. 
  

	1.2	Translation of Reporting Entity’s Statements of Net Assets 

 A reporting entity
reports in local currency. All reports are translated into US Dollars by Novartis for reporting purposes. The Statement of Net Assets is translated with the period-end exchange rates which are the rates provided by Novartis Group Treasury and are
based on Bloomberg’s mid-morning CET exchange rates and are published in the Group Treasury section of the Novartis intranet. 
  

	1.3	Novartis Reporting System and Materiality: 

  

	 	1.3.1	Financial information is obtained from the Financial Consolidation & Reporting System of Novartis and the supporting general ledgers are prepared in accordance with Novartis’s Accounting Manual (the
“NAM”). The Financial Consolidation & Reporting System is the system of record for Novartis external reporting. References in the Statement of Net Assets included as part 2 of this Appendix 23 shown as “BS01 lines
010-671” relate to the groupings shown in Novartis’s monthly reporting form “BS01 – Balance sheet”. 


  
  

189 








 Execution Version 
  

 

	 	1.3.2	For Novartis’s reporting purposes, the financial reporting of a legal entity is separated into a divisional part, which includes operating items and a corporate part, which mainly captures the amounts
related to taxes, post-employment benefit obligations and most of the financial assets and liabilities. The Statement of Net Assets contains the business of the Vaccines division (including the Business) as included in Novartis’s segment
reporting (column C - “Vaccines Divisional Reported Statement of Net Assets”), and items of the corporate Statement of Net Assets for the Vaccines Group Companies (as defined in the Vaccines SAPA) (Column D – “Vaccines Statement
of Net Assets of the Corporate part of the Vaccines Group Companies” and items related to the Statement of Net Assets for the Novartis Vaccines Institute for Global Health (column E – “Statement of Net Assets of the part of Novartis
Vaccines Institute for Global Health”) as well as adjustments for certain items which are either excluded from or added to the transaction (columns F -“Excluded items”). A US$10 million threshold was applied. Column H shows the impact
of the Business which is excluded from the transaction contemplated by the Vaccines SAPA. For the purpose of the carve out of the influenza business allocations have been made based on management’s best estimate of the contribution of the
Business. For Receivables own BU (BS01_130) and Payables own BU (BS01_620) items related to the entity in Liverpool, which will not transfer have been added back into the statement of net assets. For other entities amounts related to the Business
have not been added back in as they are offsetting each other. Payables and Receivables to Other BU’s related to the Business have been left in the statement of net assets as they are not expected to be material on a net basis. A materiality
threshold of US$50 million applies to the Business. 

  

	 	1.3.3	The Statement of Net Assets has been prepared as follows: 

  

	 	(i)	in accordance with the specific accounting treatments set out below; and, subject thereto, 

  

	 	(ii)	adopting the same accounting principles, methods, procedures and practices utilized in preparing the consolidated financial statements of Novartis AG as described in the Novartis Accounting Manual applied on a
consistent basis using consistent estimation methodologies and judgments and with consistent classifications and, subject thereto, 

  

	 	(iii)	in accordance with IFRS. 

  

	 	1.3.4	For the avoidance of doubt, paragraph 1.3.3(i) shall take precedence over paragraphs 1.3.3(ii) and 1.3.3(iii), and paragraph 1.3.3(ii) shall take precedence over paragraph 1.3.3(iii). 


 

	2	Specific Policies 

 The following supplement the description in the NAM for certain items
included in the Vaccines Group (as defined in the Vaccines SAPA) Statement of Net Assets: 
  

	2.1	Non-Current assets

 An amount of US$35 million is related
to short- term liabilities of the divested Diagnostics business, which did not transfer to the purchaser of this Diagnostics business. They are excluded from the Statement of Net Assets (as reflected in Column F) as they do not relate to the
activities of the Vaccines Group. Furthermore, an amount of US$3 million relates to the construction of the plant in Pernambuco, Brazil, which will not be transferred and has therefore also been excluded (as reflected in Column F) from the Statement

Schedule 2 
 Option 2
Assets 
  

	3	Following entry into this Deed, the parties shall discuss and agree, in good faith and acting reasonably, the amendments that are necessary to Schedule 1 to reflect that the Option 2 Assets that are being bought and
sold rather than the Business (the “Option 2 Changes”) (recognising that the Option 2 Changes to Schedule 1 may be required in addition to other changes pursuant to Schedule 4). 


 

	3.1	Set-out in paragraph 2 of this Schedule 2 is a non-exhaustive list of the Option 2 Changes. If the parties reach agreement on the Option 2 Changes, a document signed by each party setting out Option 2 Changes shall be
supplementary to this Schedule 2 and treated as though it were set out in paragraph 2 of this Schedule 2. If, following appropriate escalation to their respective senior management, the parties do not reach agreement within 60 Business Days
following 29 May 2014, any remaining dispute as to the Option 2 Changes may be referred (on the application of either party) for determination by such independent commercial Queen’s Counsel (based in London and who has been a Queen’s
Counsel for at least five years) as the parties shall agree or, failing agreement, such Queen’s Counsel as is appointed on application by either party by the Chairman of the Bar Council in London from time to time (the “QC”).
The QC shall be requested to make his/her decision within 30 Business Days of confirmation and acknowledgement by the QC of his/her appointment (or such later date as the parties and the QC agree in writing). The following provisions shall apply
once the QC has been appointed: 

  

	 	3.1.1	the QC shall be instructed that, in making his/her determination, no inference should be drawn from the fact that amendments/additions that are proposed by a party for inclusion were not included in this Schedule 2 at
the date of this Deed; 

  

	 	3.1.2	the parties shall each prepare a written statement within seven days of the QC’s appointment on the matters in dispute which (together with the relevant supporting documents) shall be submitted to the QC for
determination and copied at the same time to the other; 

  

	 	3.1.3	following delivery of their respective submissions, the parties shall each have the opportunity to comment once only on the other’s submission by written comment delivered to the QC not later than seven days after
receipt of the other’s submission and, thereafter, neither party shall be entitled to make further statements or submissions except insofar as the QC so requests (in which case it shall, on each occasion, give the other party (unless otherwise
directed) five days to respond to any statements or submission so made); 

  

	 	3.1.4	in giving his/her determination, the QC shall state his/her reasons for his/her determination; and 

  

	 	3.1.5	the QC shall act as an expert (and not as an arbitrator) in making his/her determination which shall, in the absence of manifest error or fraud, be final and binding on the parties and, without prejudice to any other
rights which they may respectively have under this Deed, the parties expressly waive, to the extent permitted by law, any rights of recourse they may otherwise have to challenge it. 


 

	 	3.1.6	The parties shall each be responsible for their own costs in connection with the review and agreement or determination of the contents of this Schedule 2. The fees and expenses of the QC shall be borne equally between
the parties or in such other proportions as the QC shall determine.

	4	For the avoidance of doubt, if the Put Option is exercised in respect of the Option 2 Assets then in respect of the Option 2 Assets: 


 

	4.1	the Headline Price in paragraph 3.1.1 shall be US$80 million; 

  

	4.2	the Minimum Claims figure in paragraph 10.3.1 (i) shall be US$80,000; 

  

	4.3	the Aggregate Minimum Claims figure in paragraph 10.4.1 shall be US$800,000; 

  

	4.4	the Maximum Liability in paragraph 10.5.1 shall be 30% of the Headline Price of US$80 million; 

  

	4.5	the Maximum Liability in paragraph 10.5.2 shall be US$80 million; and 

  

	4.6	paragraph 12 of Schedule 1 shall only apply from such time as Novartis no longer has any interest in the Business (and shall then apply for the stated periods). 


 

	5	If the Put Option is exercised in respect of the Option 2 Assets all provisions of Schedule 1 relating to intellectual property and intellectual property contracts shall be amended to achieve the following:


  

	5.1	Novartis entity(ies) shall: 

  

	 	5.1.1	assign to the Purchaser all Intellectual Property Rights and, subject to Appendix 9 (Transferred Contracts), all Intellectual Property Contracts, Predominantly Related to the Business (the “Transferred
Business IPR” and the “Transferred Intellectual Property Contracts” respectively. 

  

	 	5.1.2	grant the Purchaser entity(ies) a licence on terms consistent with the following Agreed Terms. 

  

			
	Licence		An exclusive, irrevocable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, freely-assignable (with notification to be provided after assignment other than to Affiliates), worldwide licence or sub-licence, with a right to sub-license (with

			 (A) for research and development purposes; and

		
			 (B) to use, manufacture, have manufactured, promote, distribute, market, sell, have sold, offer for sale, import, export and otherwise commercialise any
products and services,

		
			in relation to the Business.
		
	Licensed IP Rights		Intellectual Property Rights not transferred under Clause 3.1.1 above, which are owned by, or licensed (to the extent it has the rights to sub-license) to, any member of the Novartis Group as at the date of Option Closing and
related to, used in or held for use in the Business excluding: (i) the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights; (ii) the Out-Licensing Programme Intellectual Property Rights; and (iii) the Novartis Marks.
		
	Term and Termination		Perpetual
