 4.3
    
    If the Buyer receives the OFT Decision by written notification it shall notify the Seller in
writing of the fulfilment of the OFT Condition as soon as reasonably practicable and in any
event with 1 Business Day of the Buyer receiving written notification.4.4
    
    If the OFT Condition is not satisfied on or before the OFT Long Stop Date or if the OFT

 4.5
    
    Contemporaneously with the Buyer using all reasonable endeavours to procure that the OFT
Condition is satisfied, the Buyer shall take such steps as are, in it sole discretion,

date falling not later than twenty Business Days following the later of (i) the date on which
the OFT Condition is satisfied and (ii) the date on which Required Financial Information is
delivered to the Buyer, and in any event on or before 14 April 2011 (the Final Long Stop

    The Buyer shall notify the Seller in writing of the fulfilment of the Financing Condition as
soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 1 Business Day of the Buyer becoming

Final Longstop Date and the Completion Date, the Seller shall and shall procure so far as it
is reasonably able to do so that each relevant member of the Sellers Group and each Group
Company shall provide, and shall cause their respective directors, officers and employees to

where necessary providing appropriate instructions to auditors), including reasonable access

the Sellers Group or any Group Company to carry out their duties to the relevant member of
the Sellers Group or the relevant Group Company and (ii) the Buyer agrees that it would not
be reasonable to require information considered by the Seller, acting in good faith, to be
commercially sensitive.4.9

procure that each relevant member of the Sellers Group shall:

accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and include such
information that in the reasonable opinion of the Seller and its auditors is required
by Regulation S-X under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities
Act), as is customarily included in either public offerings under the Securities Act or
private placements resold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act, to consummate the
offerings of debt securities; and(b)
    
    use its reasonable endeavours to procure that the auditors of the Group provide

    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Seller acknowledges and agrees that the
Buyer and any other member of the Buyers Group may publicly disclose the Required Financial
Information, other material information regarding the Group and the transactions contemplated
hereby in connection with the Financing and that any such disclosure shall not be deemed to be
a breach of this Agreement provided that the Buyer shall provide to the Seller drafts of any
public documents containing information regarding the Group which the Buyer intends to publish
and shall afford the Seller not less than two Business Days to consent to the publication of
such documents and shall have obtained such consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).4.12

Completion any Group Company shall be required to: (i) pay any commitment or other similar
fee or incur any other liability or obligation in connection with the Financing undertaken to
meet the Financing Condition (or any replacements thereof); or (ii) to indemnify any person in

of doubt, Buyer shall reimburse the Seller, the Sellers Guarantor and each member of the

with such assistance and cooperation as may be requested and provided pursuant to clauses 4.8

each executed by one or more of the parties but, taken together, executed by all and, provided

    For the purposes of paragraph 4.1, Claims of any value arising from the same subject or
consequent on or attributable to one source or original cause shall be aggregated.4.3
    
    Subject to paragraph 4.1, the Seller will not be liable for any Claim unless the aggregate
liability for all Claims, following application of the other provisions of this schedule,
exceeds £1,000,000 in which case the Seller will, subject to the other provisions of this
schedule, be liable for the entirety of such amount (and not just the excess over £1,000,000).5
    
    Time limits5.1
    
    The Seller will not be liable for any Claim unless the Buyer serves notice of the Claim on
the Seller (specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Claim and, so far as is
practicable, the amount claimed in respect of it):
 (a)
    
    for any Claim under the Tax Warranties or under the Tax Covenant, on or before

    A Claim notified in accordance with paragraph 5.1 and not satisfied, settled or withdrawn
will be unenforceable against the Seller on the expiry of the period of 6 months starting on
the day of notification of the Claim, unless proceedings (including particulars of claim) in
respect of such Claim have been both issued and validly served on the Seller within that
period and provided that where a Claim is based upon a liability that is contingent or
otherwise not capable of being quantified:
 (a)
    
    such 6 month period shall commence on the date that the contingent liability
becomes an actual liability or the liability becomes capable of being quantified; and(b)
    
    until such time as the contingent liability becomes an actual liability or the
liability becomes capable of being quantified, the Seller shall have no liability for
such Claim.
 5.3
    
    The Buyer will not be prevented by paragraph 10 (Claims against third party) from notifying
pursuant to paragraph 5.1 a Claim to which those paragraphs apply. If any such Claim is
notified within the applicable time limit in paragraph 5.1 then the 6 month period in
paragraph 5.2 will commence on the day on which paragraph 10 ceases to prevent the Buyer
taking any further steps to pursue the relevant Claim.6
    
    Rights to information6.1
    
    If the Buyer gives any notice under paragraphs 5.1, 10 or 11, the Buyer shall, and shall
ensure that each Group Company shall:
 (a)
    
    allow the Seller and its duly authorised representatives and professional
advisers access for the purposes of the relevant Claim or Third Party Claim to the
premises and personnel of the Buyer and each Group Company, and to any relevant records
and information of the Buyer or any Group Company, (other than records or other
information which would be subject to legal privilege), and permit the Seller and those
representatives and advisers to make copies (at their own cost) of those records and
information; and(b)
    
    if so requested by the Seller, procure at the cost of the Seller that the
auditors of the relevant Group Company at the relevant time(s) grant to the firm of
accountants appointed by the Seller access to their audit working papers in respect of
audits of the

the relevant Claim or Third Party Claim.
 6.2
    
    Access under paragraph 6.1 may be required only at reasonable times during normal business
hours and on reasonable notice and will be subject to the Seller giving such undertakings as
to confidentiality as the Buyer may reasonably require and, in the case of access to the
auditors working papers, to the Seller and its appointed accountants signing such letters
holding the auditors harmless as the auditors may reasonably require.7
    
    Buyers knowledge7.1
    
    The Buyer acknowledges that as at the date of this Agreement it is not actually aware of any
matter which will entitle it to make a Claim (other than a Tax Claim). For the purposes of

actual knowledge of Jeff Wheatley, Carol Cross, Carl Spilker, Mike Marcus and Mike Coury.8

 8.2
    
    A breach of Warranty which is capable of remedy will not entitle the Buyer to compensation
unless and to the extent that such breach has not been remedied by the Seller to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Buyer within 40 Business Days after the date of service of the
notice of the Claim under this schedule.9
    
    Subsequent recovery from third partyThe Buyer shall reimburse the Seller forthwith an amount equal to any sum paid by the Seller
in respect of any Claim (other than a Tax Claim) which is subsequently recovered by or paid
to the Buyer or any other member of the Buyers Group by any third party in respect of the
matter giving rise to the Claim (less any Expenses incurred in making such recovery).10
    
    Claims against third party10.1
    
    Where the Buyer or any Group Company or any member of the Buyers Group may be entitled
(whether by reason of insurance, payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) to recover
from a third party any sum for any damage or liability which is or could be the subject of a
Claim (other than a Tax Claim) (a Third Party Recovery), the Buyer:
 (a)
    
    shall notify the Seller of the Third Party Recovery within 10 Business Days of

require relating to the Third Party Recovery and shall keep the Seller fully informed

requested in writing by the Seller (and subject to the Seller paying the Buyers
Expenses), promptly:

the conduct of all negotiations and proceedings arising in connection with the
Third Party Recovery;
 (d)
    
    shall not (and shall procure that the relevant Group Company and each member of
the Buyers Group do not) compromise, settle or waive any right in relation to that
Third Party Recovery without the written consent of the Seller, not to be unreasonably
withheld.
 10.2
    
    The Seller shall not be liable for any Claim:
 (a)
    
    unless, subject to paragraph 10.3 the Buyer has first taken steps, or procured
that the relevant member of the Group has first taken steps (including the commencement
and prosecution of proceedings), to enforce such Third Party Recovery as the Seller may
reasonably require before taking steps (other than notification of the Claim under
paragraph 5.1) to pursue the Claim against the Seller;(b)
    
    if and to the extent that such Claim arises from or is increased by the Buyers
failure to comply with the provision of this paragraph 10.2.
 10.3
    
    The Buyer shall not be obliged to transfer conduct of any Third Party Recovery to the Seller
or take any action requested under clause 10.1(c)(i) where such Third Party Recovery:
 (a)
    
    may, in the Buyers opinion (acting in good faith), have a material impact on
the business of the Group as a whole having regard to its commercial interests,
business activities and reputation in the market; or(b)
    
    involves a governmental or regulatory authority,
 provided that in such cases the Seller shall not be liable to pay the Buyers Expenses in
respect of the relevant Third Party Recovery.10.4
    
    Any Claim will be limited (in addition to the other limitations on the Sellers liability
referred to in this schedule) to the amount by which the loss or damage suffered by the Buyer
as a result of such breach exceeds the amount (if any) so recovered by way of the Third Party
Recovery.10.5
    
    If the Third Party Recovery involves a claim or other right of action against the Sellers (as
defined in the Parker Fox Agreement) the Buyer shall pursue such Third Party Recovery at the
same time, so far as is practicable, as pursuing a Claim and nothing in this paragraph 10
shall require the Buyer to pursue that Third Party Recovery before pursuing a Claim.11
    
    Claims by third party11.1
    
    In this paragraph 11, Third Party Claimmeans any Claim, other than a Tax Claim, which arises
as a result of, or in connection with any claim by, or alleged liability to, a third party.
If grounds for any Third Party Claim arise the Buyer:
 (a)
    
    shall as soon as reasonably practicable following the Buyer or relevant Group
Company becoming aware of the Third Party Claim (and in any event prior to taking any
material step to defend the Third Party Claim or to compromise, settle or waive any
right in relation to the Third Party Claim), notify the Seller of the Third Party
Claim;(b)
    
    shall provide the Seller with such information as the Seller may reasonably
require relating to the Third Party Claim and shall keep the Seller fully informed of

request to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, defend or compromise the Third Party
Claim; and(ii)
    
    procure that the Seller is placed in a position to take over
the conduct of all negotiations and proceedings arising in connection with the
Third Party Claim;
 (d)
    
    shall not (and shall procure that the relevant Group Company and each member of
the Buyers Group do not) compromise, settle or waive any right or admit any liability
in relation to that Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Seller, not to
be unreasonably withheld.

    The Buyer shall not be obliged to transfer conduct of any Third Party Claim to the Seller or
take any action requested under clause 11.1(c)(i) where such Third Party Claim:
 (a)
    
    may, in the Buyers opinion (acting in good faith), have a material impact on
the business of the Group as a whole having regard to its commercial interests,
business activities and reputation in the market; or(b)
    
    involves a governmental or regulatory authority,
 provided that in such cases the Seller shall not be liable to pay the Buyers Expenses in
respect of the relevant Third Party Claim.11.3
    
    The Seller shall not be liable for any Claim if and to the extent that such Claim arises from
or is increased by the Buyers failure to comply with the provision of this paragraph 11.12
    
    Duty to mitigateNothing in this Agreement will be deemed to relieve the Buyer from its common law duty to
mitigate its loss.13
    
    No double recoveryNeither the Buyer nor any member of the Buyers Group will be entitled to recover damages or
any other amount in respect of any Claim or otherwise obtain reimbursement or restitution
more than once in respect of the same loss or liability and for this purpose any payment by
the Seller under the Tax Covenant will be deemed to satisfy any Warranty Claim in respect of
the same loss or liability.14
    
    No reliance on statementsThe Buyer shall not make any claim against the Seller in respect of any warranty,
representation, indemnity, covenant, undertaking or otherwise arising out of or in
connection with the sale of the Sale Shares except where it is expressly contained in this
Agreement or a Transaction Document. The Buyer confirms that it has not relied upon or been
induced to enter into this Agreement by any warranty, representation, indemnity, covenant or
undertaking given by any person which is not expressly contained in this Agreement or a

    Mitigation of liabilityThe Seller may, in particular but without limitation, by notice in writing to the Buyer
avoid or reduce any liability which the Seller would, apart from this paragraph 3, have
under the Tax Covenant or for breach of any Tax Warranty by surrendering or procuring the
surrender to the Company of Group Relief, a Refund or any other Relief (without the Buyer or
the Company being liable to make any payment in consideration for such surrender) and the
liability of the Seller under the Tax Covenant or for breach of any Tax Warranty shall be
satisfied or avoided to the extent of the amount of Taxation which could be satisfied or
avoided as a result of such surrender. The Buyer shall procure that the Company takes all
such reasonable steps, including (without limitation) making and giving all such claims and
consents as may be necessary to effect any such surrender.4
    
    Over-provisions and Windfall Reliefs4.1
    
    The Buyer shall at the request and expense of the Seller, such request to be made on or
before the seventh anniversary of Completion, request the Auditors to determine (as experts
and not as arbitrators and at the expense of the Seller) whether:
 (a)
    
    any provision for Taxation (other than a provision for deferred taxation) or
for payment for Group Relief or the surrender of a Refund in the Completion Statement
has proved to be an over-provision and if so its amount;(b)
    
    any right to a repayment of Taxation treated as an asset in the Completion
Statement has proved to be understated and if so its amount or, where no right to
repayment of Taxation was treated as an asset in the Completion Statement, whether any
such

amount should have been treated as an asset in the Completion Statement and if so
the amount; or
 (c)
    
    any Actual Taxation Liability which arises or would otherwise have arisen
(other than one which would otherwise have given rise to a corresponding liability of
the Seller under the Tax Covenant) is avoided or reduced or any repayment of an amount
of Taxation is obtained in either case by the use of a Seller Relief, and, if so, the
amount of Taxation so saved or the amount of that repayment; and
 if the Auditors determine that there has proved to be any such over-provision,
understatement or amount, the amount of such over-provision, understatement or amount (as
the case may be) shall be dealt with in accordance with paragraph 4.3.4.2
    
    The Buyer shall at the request and expense of the Seller request the Auditors to determine
(as experts and not as arbitrators and at the expense of the Seller) whether any Taxation
Liability (or the Event giving rise to such Taxation Liability or the discharge of it) which
has resulted in any sum having been paid or becoming payable by the Seller under the Tax
Covenant or for breach of any Tax Warranty has given rise to a Relief (or would give rise to a
Relief assuming that all reasonable steps are taken to obtain such Relief) which would not
otherwise have arisen, and:
 (a)
    
    a liability of the Company to make an actual payment or increased payment of
Taxation has been or could have been satisfied or avoided in whole or in part by the
use of that Relief; or(b)
    
    a right to a repayment of Taxation has or could have arisen as a result of the
use of that Relief; and
 if the Auditors so determine, the amount by which that liability has or could have been
satisfied or avoided or an amount equal to the amount of that repayment (as the case may be)
shall be dealt with in accordance with paragraph 4.3.4.3
    
    Where it is provided under paragraph 4.1 or 4.2 that any amount is to be dealt with in
accordance with this paragraph 4.3:
 (a)
    
    the amount shall first be set off against any payment then due from the Seller
under the Tax Covenant or for breach of any Tax Warranty;(b)
    
    to the extent there is an excess, a refund shall be made to the Seller, within
10 Business Days of the Auditors determination referred to in paragraph 4.1 or 4.2 (as
appropriate), of any previous payment made by the Seller under the Tax Covenant or for
breach of any Tax Warranty and not previously refunded under this paragraph up to the
amount of such excess; and(c)
    
    to the extent that the excess referred to in paragraph 4.3(b) is not exhausted
thereunder, the remainder of that excess shall be carried forward and set off against
any future payment which becomes due from the Seller under the Tax Covenant or for
breach of any Tax Warranty;
 4.4
    
    Where such determination by the Auditors as is mentioned in paragraph 4.1 or 4.2 has been
made, the Seller or the Buyer may request the Auditors to review such determination (at the
expense of the person making the request) in the light of all relevant circumstances,
including any facts which have become known only since such determination, and to determine
 93

##### 



whether such determination remains correct or whether, in the light of those circumstances,
the amount that was the subject of such determination should be amended.
 4.5
    
    If the Auditors determine under paragraph 4.4 that an amount previously determined should be
amended, that amended amount shall be substituted for the purposes of paragraph 4.1 or 4.2, as
the case may be, in place of the amount originally determined and such adjusting payment (if
any) as may be required by virtue of such substitution shall forthwith be made by the Seller
to the Buyer or, as the case may be, by the Buyer to the Seller.5
    
    Recovery from third parties5.1
    
    If the Seller has made, or is liable to make, a payment to the Buyer under the Tax Covenant
or for breach of any Tax Warranty and any member of the Buyers Group is before the seventh
anniversary of Completion entitled to recover from any third party (including any Taxation
Authority) a payment which would not have been made but for such Actual Taxation Liability,
the Buyer shall and shall procure that the relevant member of the Buyers Group shall inform
the Seller of this entitlement and use all reasonable endeavours to effect such recovery.5.2
    
    The Buyer covenants with the Seller to pay to the Seller a sum equal to the lesser of:
 (a)
    
    the amount of any payment so received, after deduction therefrom of an amount
equal to any costs, fees and expenses incurred in obtaining it and any Taxation
Liability incurred in respect of it; and(b)
    
    the amount paid by the Seller under the Tax Covenant or in respect of the Tax
Warranties in respect of the Taxation Liability in question.

a Claim which could give rise to a liability of the Seller under the Tax Covenant or in
respect of the Tax Warranties, the Buyer shall or shall procure that the Company shall as soon
as reasonably practicable give written notice of the Claim to the Seller and, in any event,
where a statutory or other time limit is applicable for responding to or appealing against the

respect of such Claim, the basis of calculation of that estimate and such details of the Claim
as are then available to the Buyer or the Company.6.2
    
    The Buyer shall, and shall procure that the Company shall, take such action to appeal,
compromise, protest against, mitigate, reduce, avoid, dispute, resist or compromise the Claim
and make available such documents, information and assistance in connection with the Claim as
the Seller may by written notice reasonably request provided the Seller shall indemnify the
Buyer and the Company against all reasonable costs and expenses which the Buyer or the Company
properly incurs as a result of taking such action or providing such information and
assistance.6.3
    
    The Seller may, at the Sellers expense, elect to have any action referred to in paragraph
6.2 conducted by professional advisers acting in the name of the Company but reporting to the
Seller in which event the provisions of paragraph 6.4 shall apply.

matter of the Claim to the effect that an appeal in respect of the matter in question has a
reasonable prospect of being won.6.6

requests that the Buyer take, or procure that the Company take, any action referred to in
