between the BP and an employer within the Unilever Organisation which is in place
at the date hereof or which may be substituted for such contract on the transfer
of the BP to a different location within the Unilever Organisation

in operation (unless and until otherwise agreed in writing) save that in the
event of any conflict between the terms thereof and the terms of this Agreement,
the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The underlying contract shall terminate
automatically with termination of this Agreement pursuant to Clause 6.1 or 6.3
