pay under the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (as amended) and any salary paid to him will be deemed to include statutory sick pay. The Company reserves the right to offset the amount of these benefits against salary paid to the
Executive even if the Executive has not recovered them. 

  

	 	9.3	 The Company may request the Executive to have a medical examination every year (or at such shorter
intervals as they may agree between them), by a doctor approved by the Company. The costs of such examinations shall be borne by the Company. 


  

	10	 Inventions and Copyright 



The Company’s standard policy on inventions and copyright from time to time in force shall apply to the Executive. 

 

	11	 Confidentiality; Company Securities 



 

	 	11.1	 Without prejudice to any other duty owed to the Company or to any Group Company, the Executive shall
not, except in the proper performance of his duties or as authorised by the Board, during or after the Employment, use or disclose to any person any Confidential Information obtained by him during the Employment. 



 

	 	11.2	 In the course of the Employment, the Executive is likely to obtain trade secrets and confidential
information belonging to or relating to Group Companies and other persons. He will treat such information as if it falls within the terms of Section 11.1 and Section 11.1 will apply with any necessary amendments to such information. If
requested to do so by the Company, the Executive will enter into an agreement with other Group Companies and any other persons in the same terms as Section 11.1 with any amendments necessary to give effect to this provision.



  

	 	11.3	 For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall include,
but not be limited to confidential commercial, financial and strategic data pertaining to the Group and any other confidential information relating to the business or affairs of the Group including, without limitation, any invention, trade secret,
manufacturing process or patent information. The term “Confidential Information” shall not include any information: 


  

	 	11.3.1	 which is or becomes generally available to the public; or 



 

	 	11.3.2	 which is acquired by the Executive apart from his association with the Group 



other than, in each case, as a result of disclosure by the Executive or by any person to whom he has supplied information or by any person in
breach of a duty of confidentiality. 
 In addition, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include any information which
the Executive is required to disclose by applicable law or regulation or by order of a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction. This does not affect any rights the Executive has under Part IVA of the Employment Rights Act 1996. 

 

	 	11.4	 During the Employment, the Executive shall be bound, in respect of transactions in securities issued by
any Group Company, by the Company’s and GSK plc’s policies from time to time in effect on employee securities dealing. In particular, the Executive shall advise the Chief Executive Officer, Chairman or Company Secretary of GSK plc before
he or any member of his immediate family seeks to trade in such securities and shall be bound by any directions given by the said Chief Executive Officer, Chairman or Company Secretary.

the Company shall not be entitled to terminate the employment by reason of physical or mental illness or other condition if this would lead to the Executive becoming dis-entitled to benefits under the

Executive to comply with any and all of the provisions in this Section 15.1 for a maximum period of 12 months (the “Garden Leave Period”). 



  
  

- 7 - 














	 	15.1.1	 The Company may require that the Executive does not: 



 

	 	(i)	 enter or attend the premises of the Company, or any Group Company; or 



 

	 	(ii)	 contact or have any communication with any customer or client of the Company, or any Group Company in relation
to the business of the Company, or any Group Company; or 


  

	 	(iii)	 contact or have any communication with any employee, officer, director, agent or consultant of the Company, or
any Group Company in relation to the business of the Company, or any Group Company; or 


  

	 	(iv)	 become employed or engaged by any company, partnership or other entity whether as an employee, director,
partner or consultant or carry on any business either on his own account or for any other person whether directly or indirectly (except as the holder, directly or indirectly, of less than 5 per cent of the shares or save for those activities
permitted in accordance with Section 4.3); 


  

	 	(v)	 remain or become involved in any aspect of the business of the Company, or any Group Company except as required
by such companies. 


  

	 	15.1.2	 The Company may require the Executive: 



 

	 	(i)	 to comply with the provisions of Section 12; and 



 

	 	(ii)	 to immediately resign from any directorship which he holds in the Company, and any Group Company or any other
company where such directorship is held as a consequence or requirement of the Employment, unless he is required to perform duties to which any such directorship relates in which case he may retain such directorships while those duties are ongoing.
The Executive hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to appoint an officer of GSK plc as his attorney to execute any instrument and do anything in his name and on his behalf to effect his resignation if he fails to do so in accordance with this
Section 15.1.2(ii). 


  

	 	15.1.3	 During any Garden Leave Period the Company may appoint another individual to carry out the duties of the
Executive and the Executive shall: 


  

	 	(i)	 continue to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and conduct himself with good faith towards the
Company and not do anything that is harmful to the Company or any Group Company; 


  

	 	(ii)	 remain available to perform any reasonable duty requested by the Company or any Group Company and to co-operate generally with the Company or any Group Company to ensure a smooth handover of his duties (provided that if the Executive should fail to make himself available for such work having been requested by the
Company or any Group Company to attend he shall, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement forfeit his right to salary and contractual benefits in respect of such period of non-availability).



  

	 	15.1.4	 During the Garden Leave Period, the Executive will be entitled to receive his salary and benefits in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement including any bonus payable in accordance with Section 5.2 but excluding any share entitlements under Section 5.2 above. 



  
  

- 8 - 














	 	15.1.5	 Where the Company gives notice to terminate the Employment in accordance with Section 3.2 (except
where termination is effected pursuant to the terms of Section 14) above then notwithstanding the continuation of the Employment during any period after notice has been given, including, any Garden Leave Period, within 30 days of the date such
notice was given to the Executive, the Company shall pay to the Executive as a lump sum his full salary in respect of the entire period of notice (subject to deduction of tax and any other deductions required to be made) (the “Lump
Sum”). For this purpose, full salary shall be the basic salary in effect at the date such notice is given to the Executive. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment by the Company to the Executive of the Lump Sum will extinguish any and all
liability imposed on the Company under this Agreement to make any further payment to the Executive in respect of salary under this Agreement during any period after notice has been given, including, any Garden Leave Period. 



 

	 	15.1.6	 After the payment of a Lump Sum pursuant to Section 15.1.5, at the end of or at any time during the
Garden Leave Period the Company may at its sole and absolute discretion terminate the Employment by further written notice to the Executive without any further payment. In any event at the end of the 12 month Garden Leave Period the Employment will
also terminate automatically and the Company shall be under no obligation to make any further payment to the Executive, save for in respect of any Accrued Obligations that may exist. 



 

	 	15.1.7	 However, in the event that the Executive obtains an offer of future alternative employment with another
employer, or otherwise wishes to take up alternative business activities, and he can satisfy the GSK Board that such employment/activities are not in breach of Section 16, the Company shall waive the balance of any unexpired notice period or
the Garden Leave Period so as to enable the Executive to take up such alternative employment/activities; whereupon, subject to Section 12.3 above, the Company’s obligations to the Executive under this Section 15.1 shall cease with
effect from the agreed revised Termination Date. 


  

	 	15.1.8	 The Company and the Executive agree that if the Company shall fully perform, when due, all its
obligations under this Section 15, such performance shall be in full and final settlement of all and any claims or rights of action which the Executive might have against the Company, or any Group Company arising out of this Agreement or its
termination or otherwise howsoever relating to the Employment.

	 	16.1	 In this Section: 



“Restricted Business” means the businesses of the Company or any Group Company at the Termination Date (or if earlier the
start of any Garden Leave Period ending on the Termination Date) with which the Executive was involved to a material extent during the last 12 months of the Employment; and, 

  
  

- 9 - 













 “Restricted Period” means any period during which the Executive is employed
by the Company (including for the avoidance of doubt, any Garden Leave Period) and the period of 12 months, less any Garden Leave Period imposed by the Company under Section 15 and less any period of notice worked by the Executive during the
notice period set out in Section 3, commencing on the Termination Date. 
  

	 	16.2	 The Executive is likely to obtain trade secrets and Confidential Information and personal knowledge of
and influence over customers, clients and employees of the Company, GSK plc and its Group Companies during the course of the Employment. To protect these interests, the Executive agrees with the Company and GSK plc that the Executive will be bound
by the following covenants: 


  

	 	16.2.1	 During the Restricted Period he will not be employed or engaged in (except as the holder, directly or
indirectly, of less than 5 per cent of the shares) any business which is or is about to be in competition with the Restricted Business. 


  

	 	16.2.2	 During the Restricted Period the Executive will not canvass or solicit in competition with the Company,
or any Group Company, the custom of any person who was during the last 12 months of the Employment a customer, or client of, or in the habit of dealing with, the Company, or (as the case may be) any Group Company and in respect of which the
Executive had access to Confidential Information or with whose custom or business the Executive is or was personally concerned, during that 12 month period with a view to providing goods or services to that person in competition with any Restricted
Business. 


  

	 	16.2.3	 During the Restricted Period the Executive will not, in the course of any business concern which is in
competition with the Restricted Business provide goods or services to or otherwise have any dealings with any person who was during the last 12 months of the Employment a customer, or client of, or in the habit of dealing with the Company, or any
Group Company, and in respect of which the Executive had access to Confidential Information or with whose custom or business the Executive is or was personally concerned during that 12 month period. 



 

	 	16.2.4	 During the Restricted Period the Executive will not, interfere or endeavour to interfere with the
continuance of the provision of goods or services to the Company, or any Group Company, by any supplier which was a supplier of goods or services to the Company, or any Group Company during the last 12 months of the Employment and with whom the
Executive dealt to a material extent during that period 


  

	 	16.2.5	 During the Restricted Period he will not entice or try to entice away from the Company or any Group
Company any person who is still employed by the Company or a Group Company during the Restricted Period and is a senior employee, director or full time senior consultant of such a company and with whom he worked closely in the last six months of the
Employment. 


  

	 	16.3	 Each of the obligations imposed on the Executive by this Section 16 extend to him acting not only
on his own account but also on behalf of any other firm, company or other person and shall apply whether he acts directly or indirectly. 



  
  

- 10 - 














	 	16.4	 Following the Termination Date, the Executive will not represent himself as being in any way connected
with the businesses of the Company, GSK plc or of any other Group Company (except to the extent agreed in writing by such a company). 


  

	 	16.5	 Any benefit given or deemed to be given by the Executive to any Group Company under the terms of
Section 16 is received and held on trust by the Company for the relevant Group Company. The Executive will enter into appropriate restrictive covenants directly with other Group Companies if asked to do so by the Company or GSK plc.



  

	17	 Reasonableness of Restrictions 



 

	 	17.1	 Each of the obligations on the Executive contained in Section 16 constitutes a separate and
independent restriction on the Executive notwithstanding that they may be contained in the same Section, paragraph or sentence. 


  

	 	17.2	 Should the restrictions contained in Section 16 be found to be void but would be valid if some part
thereof were deleted or the period or radius of application reduced, then such restriction shall apply with such modification as may be necessary to make it valid and effective. In particular, the Executive agrees that the restrictions are
reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company and the Group Companies. 


  

	 	17.3	 If the Executive shall, during the Restricted Period, receive from any person, firm or company, an offer
to provide services in any capacity whatsoever, or to enter into employment where acceptance of such offer, or the taking of such employment, might render him in breach of the provisions of this Agreement, he shall promptly advise the offeror of the
existence of the restrictions set forth in Section 16 of this Agreement. 


  

	 	17.4	 The Executive acknowledges that the Company may have no adequate remedy at law and would be irreparably
harmed if the Executive breaches or threatens to breach the provisions of Section 16 above and, therefore, agrees that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent any breach or threatened breach of Section 16 above, and
to specific performance of the terms of each such Section in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy it may have. The Executive further agrees that he shall not, in any equity proceedings involving him relating to the enforcement of
Section 16 above raise the defence that the Company has an adequate remedy at law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies at law or in equity that it may have.



  

	18	 Severability 



In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining
provisions or portions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
  

	19	 Successors and Assigns 



 

	 	19.1	 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company or any corporation or other
entity to which the Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets and business and to which the Company may assign this Agreement, in which case “Company”, as used in this Agreement, shall mean such corporation or
other entity. The foregoing shall not relieve the Company of any of its obligations under Section 15 of this Agreement. The rights of the Executive shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors, administrators and other personal
representatives.

The Executive acknowledges that he has not been induced to enter into this Agreement by any representation, warranty or undertaking not expressly incorporated into it. 



 

	 	22.2	 Neither party’s rights or powers under this Agreement will be affected if: 



 

	 	22.2.1	 one party delays in enforcing any provision of this Agreement; or 



 

	 	22.2.2	 one party grants time to the other party. 



 

	23	 Amendment or Modification; Waiver

estate or beneficiaries, shall be subject to withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may be required to withhold pursuant to any applicable statute, law or regulation. 

 

	25	 Indemnification and Insurance 



 

	 	25.1	 The Company agrees that if the Executive is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
action, suit, proceeding, prosecution or governmental, regulatory or other investigation by reason of the fact of the Employment or that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Group Company or entity except for any action instigated by the Company or the Executive (a “Proceeding”), he shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted

expenses, liabilities, fees, costs, damages and losses reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection with such a Proceeding (including any tax payable by the Executive as a
result of payments made by the Company pursuant to this indemnity), including, without limitation, payment of expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding prior to the final disposition of such Proceeding; PROVIDED, however, that written notice of
such Proceeding is given promptly to the Company by the Executive and the Company is permitted (where appropriate) to participate in and assume the defence of such Proceeding. The provisions of this Section 25 shall survive the termination of
the Employment and shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification to which the Executive may from time to time be entitled, whether under any applicable insurance policies or otherwise. 


 

	 	25.2	 The Company will provide the Executive with Legal Expenses Insurance and Directors’ and
Officers’ Liability Insurance under the Company’s policy current from time to time in force to cover the period during which he acts as a director, officer or employee or agent of any Group Company or entity under this Agreement whether or
not he remains a director, officer, employee or agent of any Group Company or entity at the time any claim under the policy is made. 


  

	26	 Collective Agreements – Disciplinary Rules and Procedures 



There are no collective agreements which directly affect the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. 

The Company’s harassment and bullying policies, disciplinary rules and procedures and grievance procedures, as in force from time to time,
shall apply to the Executive. The Company reserves the right to leave out any or all of the stages of those rules and procedures where it considers it appropriate to do so. 
  

	27	 Governing Law 



This Agreement shall be deemed a contract made under, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of England. Each of
