    binding contract or obligation on behalf of the Company.


 


	 	3.	TIME
    COMMITMENT
	 	 	 
	 	3.1	You
    will be expected to devote such time as is necessary for the proper performance of your duties. As a minimum, you should expect
    to spend at least 1 day a month on work for the Company.
	 	 	 
	 	3.2	Unless
    urgent and unavoidable circumstances prevent you from doing so, it is expected that you will attend the meetings referred
    to in clause 2 above and devote appropriate preparation time in advance of each meeting. In addition to attending those meetings
    you will be expected to devote appropriate time to ad hoc matters arising from time to time.
	 	 	 
	 	3.3	By
    accepting this Appointment you undertake that, taking into account all other commitments you may have, you are able to, and
    will, devote sufficient time to your duties as a non-executive Director and you confirm that you have fully disclosed to the
    Board your current other significant commitments and agree to inform the Chairman promptly of any change to these commitments.
	 	 	 
	 	4.	FEE
    AND EXPENSES
	 	 	 
	 	4.1	In
    consideration for the provision of your services under this letter you will be entitled to a Director’s fee at the rate
    of £120,000 per year, to be payable monthly in arrears to you subject to income tax and such other deductions as the
    Company is obliged by law to make. The fee will be subject to annual review by the Board. For the avoidance of doubt, your
    Appointment will not be pensionable, nor, due to your self-employed status, will you participate in any of the Company’s
    schemes for the benefit of its employees.
	 	 	 
	 	4.2	You
    will be entitled to be reimbursed for all of your reasonable out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred by your attending
    meetings of the directors or any committee of the directors or any general meetings of the Company or otherwise in the performance
    of your duties (for the whole period of your Appointment) subject to the production of receipts, vouchers or other evidence
    of expenditure in respect of such expenses as required by the Company.
	 	 	 
	 	4.3	You
    will not be entitled to any additional fees or emoluments for your services as a member of any committee of the Board.
	 	 	 
	 	4.4	On
    termination of the Appointment you will only be entitled to fees accrued up to the date of termination together with reimbursement
    of any expenses properly incurred prior to that date.
	 	 	 
	 	5.	OUTSIDE
    INTERESTS
	 	 	 
	 	5.1	It
    is understood that you are currently undertaking and may in the future undertake work for other companies or organisations..
    You agree to keep the Company informed of these activities
to minimise the potential for conflicts of interest. Where an interest you hold outside of the Company gives rise to a conflict
of interest with business of the Company, you agree that you will recuse yourself from any discussions, considerations or other
business of the Company, which is related to or affected by this conflict. The Company may ask you to reconsider any appointments,
which might impact on the time that you are able to devote to your role as a non-executive director of the Company.



 






    	 	-6-	 



     


    

 


	 	5.2	During
    the Appointment, you will not, except with the prior approval of the Board (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
    or delayed), be (directly or indirectly and whether as an investor, partner, consultant, director, employee, agent or principal
    or in any other capacity) engaged, concerned or interested in any business or company which competes directly or is likely
    to compete directly with the Company’s interests in the music publishing industry or any of its subsidiary undertakings.
	 	 	 
	 	5.3	You
    must inform the Company in the event that you currently, or will at any time during the Appointment as a result of a proposed
    acquisition of shares, hold five per cent or more of the issued shares or other securities of any class of any one company
    which is not a competitor of the Company, where such shares or other securities are listed or dealt in on a recognised stock
    exchange in the United Kingdom or elsewhere, and are to be held by you for investment purposes only.
	 	 	 
	 	5.4	You
    must communicate to the Board any potential or actual conflict of interest or duty arising out of your position as a Director
    and any information or knowledge acquired or gained by you which may be of value to the Company (save to the extent that this
    would constitute a breach of a confidentiality obligation or applicable law or regulation to which you are subject).
	 	 	 
	 	5.5	Without
    prejudice to your other obligations under this paragraph 5, you shall disclose to the Board the nature and extent of any interest
    you have (directly or indirectly) in a transaction entered into, or proposed to be entered into, by the Company of which you
    are aware. Such disclosure shall be made as soon as possible to the Board after you become aware of such interest. Save as
    permitted under the Articles, you will not vote on any resolution of the Board, or of one of its committees, on any matter
    where you have any direct or indirect interest.
	 	 	 
	 	5.6	All
    records in any medium (whether written, computer readable or otherwise) including private notes concerning the Company and
    all copies and abstracts of them made or acquired by you in the course of your Appointment remain the property of the Company
    and must only be used for the purposes of the Company and returned to the Company on demand at any time.
	 	 	 
	 	6.	CONFIDENTIALITY
	 	 	 
	 	6.1	In
    this clause 6, ‘Confidential Information’ means all information relating to the business, finances, transactions,
    affairs, products, services, processes, equipment or activities of the Company which is designated by the Company as
    confidential or any information relating to such matters which comes to your knowledge in the course of your Appointment and which
by reason of its character and/or the manner of its coming to your knowledge is evidently confidential provided that information
shall not be or shall cease to be Confidential Information if and to the extent that it comes to be in the public domain otherwise
than as a result of an unauthorised act or default on your part.



 






    	 	-7-	 



     


    

 


	 	6.2	During
    your Appointment or at any time after its termination you will not for any reason, use (except in the proper course of carrying
    out your duties under the Appointment) or disclose to any person (except the proper officers of the Company or under the authority
    of the Board) any Confidential Information which may be in your possession during the period of the Appointment.
	 	 	 
	 	6.3	You
    must apply the highest standards of confidentiality to all Confidential Information which you may receive or acquire during
    the Appointment and you acknowledge the need to hold and retain all such Confidential Information (in whatever form you may
    receive or acquire it) under appropriately secure conditions.
	 	 	 
	 	6.4	During
    your Appointment you will use your best endeavours to prevent the unauthorised use or disclosure of any Confidential Information
    by any other officer, employee or agent of the Company and shall promptly and fully report to the Board any such unauthorised
    use or disclosure, except in the case of any Confidential Information which is disclosed or comes to your knowledge:


 


	 	(a)	with
    the express written consent of the Board that the information can be disclosed;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	which
    is required to be disclosed by law or regulatory obligations or in compliance with an order of a competent court or regulatory
    authority with statutory powers; or
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	where
    you are making a protected disclosure for the purposes of the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998.


 


	 	6.5	The
    provisions of this clause will cease to apply to information which enters the public domain other than directly or indirectly
    by reason of your default.


 


	 	7.	INSIDE
    INFORMATION AND DEALING IN THE COMPANY’S SECURITIES
	 	 	 
	 	7.1	Your
    attention is drawn to the requirements under both law and regulation regarding the use and disclosure of inside information.
    You should avoid taking any action or making any statements that might risk a breach of these requirements.
	 	 	 
	 	7.2	During
    the Appointment you are required to comply with all applicable legal and regulatory provisions for the time being in force
    in relation to dealing in the Company’s listed securities or any securities referenced to such securities, together
    with the provisions of the Company’s securities dealing code in relation to dealings by directors and other persons.
	 	 	 
	 	7.3	Your
    attention is also drawn to the criminal insider dealing regime under the Criminal Justice Act 1993 and the civil market abuse
    regime under the EU Market Abuse Regulation. These regimes operate, in certain circumstances, to prohibit the use or disclosure
    of inside information and dealings in the Company’s securities or related securities, as well as rendering unlawful certain other types of behaviour.
