17








18.2 The Company will have the right to suspend the Executive (subject to the continued payment of Salary and benefits, but not sick pay) pending any investigation into any potential dishonesty, gross misconduct or any other circumstances which may give rise to a right to the Company to terminate the Executive's employment with or without notice for such period as it thinks fit.
18.3 During any period of notice, and provided that the Company continues to pay the Salary and to provide all benefits to which he is contractually entitled (or a sum in lieu of the value to him of such benefits) until the termination of his employment, then the Company is entitled at its absolute discretion to place the Executive on garden leave. During any such period of garden leave the Executive must not, except as authorised by the Company:
(a) attend his place of work or any other premises of the Company or any Group Company during the  remaining period of his notice (or any part of such period);
(b) make contact (including socially) with any employees, agents, suppliers or customers or clients of the Company or any Group Company except as directed by the Company during the remaining period of his notice (or any part of such period); and

Such a payment will be equivalent to the Salary (excluding any benefits) which would have been payable during the Executive's notice period or any unexpired balance thereof and will be in full and final settlement of the Executive's contractual claims under this agreement. The Company is not obliged to make such a payment (and will be entitled to recover any sums already paid) if after such notification it becomes aware of any 
18








grounds arising prior to the Termination Date which would have entitled it to summarily dismiss the Executive in accordance with clause 18.1.
18.6 The Company reserves the right to pay any sums due under clause 18.5 in equal monthly instalments during what would have been the unexpired portion of the Executive's contractual notice period. Notwithstanding that a termination of his employment in accordance with clause 18.5 is not a breach of this agreement, the Executive agrees that following such notification as is referred to in clause 18.5 he will be under a duty to take reasonable steps to mitigate any consequential losses by seeking an alternative remunerative position, whether as employee, director, self­ employed consultant or shareholder, and to notify the Company in writing as soon as any such position is accepted, of when it is due to commence and the financial terms applicable to it. If the Executive obtains an alternative position during this period any sums due to the Executive under clause 18.5 will  be reduced or extinguished accordingly.
18.7 If the Company terminates the Executive's employment without the written notification referred to in clause 18.5, then the Executive will have no contractual entitlement to the pay in lieu of notice referred to in that clause.
18.8 In the event of termination, the Company shall pay the Executive compensation in accordance with SCHEDULE 1.
19RETIREMENT
19.1 The Company does not have a fixed retirement age although this may be reviewed from time to time to reflect the Company's business needs. The Executive may choose at what age he wishes to retire. If the Executive wishes to retire he should provide the Company with as much notice as possible, and at least the period of notice he is required to give to terminate his employment under this agreement.
19.2 Since knowing when the Executive intends to retire may be helpful to the Company in terms of succession planning etc., the Company may ask the Executive about his plans in this respect from time to time. The Executive is not bound by any indication he gives the Company, but he agrees to keep it informed of any changes to his stated intentions arising, for example, through changes in his personal circumstances.
