| | the Buyer shall bear and pay, and shall reimburse any Sellers Group Company any amount borne or paid by any Sellers Group Company in respect of
the excess above US$2,000,000. If the Seller is required to pay any amount in respect of Depreciation Claw-back (which shall in no event exceed US$2,000,000), such amount shall first be paid by the Seller from the Actual Closing Cash Amount. If the
Actual Closing Cash Amount is not sufficient to pay the full amount of such Depreciation Claw-back following any payment by the Seller to the Buyer in accordance with clause 6.8 (the remaining unpaid amount being the Depreciation
Claw-back Shortfall), then the Depreciation Claw-back Shortfall shall be paid to the tax authorities from the Escrow Account. In the event that there are tax losses available to the Business Sellers to offset any Depreciation Claw-back
which has arisen as a result of the transfer of the Sale Business and Assets, the Seller shall use such tax losses to reduce such liability.

|20.4 | If any deduction or withholding is required by law from any payment in respect of a Buyer Obligation or a Seller Obligation, then, except in relation to interest, the person making
the payment shall be obliged to pay the other person such additional 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.
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|20.5 | If any tax authority brings into charge to tax any sum paid by a person to any other person in respect of a Buyer Obligation or a Seller Obligation, then, except in relation to
interest, the amount so payable shall be grossed up by such amount as will ensure that, after payment of the tax so charged, there will be left a sum equal to the amount that would otherwise have been payable had the sum in question not been so
charged to tax.
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|20.6 | If any person receiving payment (the Recipient) in respect of a Buyer Obligation or a Seller Obligation receives a refund of or relief from any tax or other
monies payable by it or similar benefit by reason of any deduction or withholding for or on account of tax or by reason of any tax charged in respect of which there is a gross up under clause 20.4or clause 20.5, then it
shall reimburse to the other relevant persons such part of such additional payments paid to it pursuant to clause 20.4 or clause 20.5 by such other persons as the Recipient, acting reasonably, certifies to the other persons
will leave it (after such reimbursement) in no better or worse position than it would have been in if no deduction or withholding had been required or no tax charge had arisen or (where applicable) if the matter giving rise to the payment had not
arisen.

clause 20.6.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|20.8 | For the avoidance of doubt, all sums payable by or on behalf of the Buyer to the Seller under this Agreement or any of the Other Documents are exclusive of any applicable taxes
referred to in clause 20.1or clause 20.2.
|---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

payment under this Deed, it shall as soon as practicable give written notice to the Covenantor and shall take such action as the Covenantor may reasonably request to dispute, resist or compromise the liability. Neither the Covenantor nor the
