outside the UK would last for a period exceeding a month. The Company will endeavour to consult with you about any proposed changes to your work location. You may also be required to work from home during business hours where the Company considers

to participate, as determined by the Board or the Committee of the Board in their absolute discretion and in accordance with any relevant policies, applicable law, or exchange listing requirements, in Foster Wheeler AG’s annual STI program as

	3.3	Long-Term Incentive (“LTI”) 

 You shall be eligible during your employment for
annual equity awards, as determined by the Board and/or the Committee as necessary or appropriate to comply with Company policy, applicable law, or exchange listing requirements, under the equity or LTI plan for senior executives, as in effect from
time to time. The LTI plan currently in place is the Omnibus Plan. The actual amount of any LTI awards shall be determined by and in accordance with the terms of the then-current LTI award plan or program by the Company, the Board, and/or the
Committee in their absolute discretion, and you shall have no absolute right to an LTI award in any year. 
 For the 2013 plan year, you

eligible dependent children.

contribution pension plan, are contained in the prevailing plan booklets and subject to the rules of the Plan from time to time in force and the tax reliefs and exemptions available from HR Revenue & Customs.

	3.7	Other Benefits 

 Subject to eligibility, you may be able to participate in certain
insurance or other schemes as may be made available to you by the Company or an Associated Company from time to time. If you do participate in any such insurance schemes, and whether the particular scheme is contractual or non-contractual, payments
will be made to you only insofar as the terms of the applicable Company/ Associated Company policy provides for cover and (where cover under the scheme is provided by an external organisation) where the applicable insurance policy provides for and
pays for cover. The Company reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to discontinue, vary or amend the benefits provided at any time on reasonable notice to you. Where you have had the benefit of insurance or cover which is based on
your level of salary, then the relevant level of salary going forward shall be as specified in this Contract. 
  

	3.8	Deductions 

 The Company will be entitled, at any time, to deduct from any salary or
other remuneration due to you any monies that may be due and owing to the Company or any Associated Company (if applicable), including without limitation any overpayment, transitional payments, advances or loans made to you by the Company and/or any
Associated Company, pay received for holiday taken in excess of pro rata entitlement or during periods of unauthorised absences, excess of commission paid and advance payments for anticipated expenses in excess of those expenses actually incurred.

 Where any property or money belonging to the Company or any Associated Company or any client, customer, visitor, employee or agent of the
Company or any Associated Company is lost or damaged through dishonesty on your part, or because of your serious or persistent negligence or recklessness or through any serious or persistent breach of the Company’s or any Associated
Company’s rules, the Company reserves the right to require you to pay for any such loss or damage by a deduction from salary or other payments due to you from the Company. 

By signing this Contract you accept the Company’s right to make such deductions. If the Company (or Associated Company as applicable) is
unable, for whatever reason, to recoup monies due by making deductions, then it reserves its rights to pursue such repayment by other means, including through civil legal action. 

 

	3.9	Personal Indemnity 

 You shall indemnify the Company on a continuing basis in relation
to any income tax and National Insurance contributions (save for employers’ National Insurance contributions), including any related interest, penalties, costs and expenses, which may be incurred by the Company if any exemptions applied under
this contract of employment do not apply. 
  

	4.0	HOLIDAYS 

 You shall be entitled to 25 days paid holiday per annum 

  
 Page 9 of 31

 

 
  
  
  

Full time employees are also entitled to 8 public and other statutory holidays in England and Wales per annum. 

The Company’s holiday year runs from 1st January to 31st December. 

Your holiday entitlement for the first holiday year under this Contract will be calculated on a pro-rata basis for the number of full months
worked in the year. 
 In some circumstances the Company or any Associated Company may direct you to take holiday on specific days, such as
during the Christmas period. You will be notified if you need to keep aside any leave to cover such periods as this will vary each year and will depend upon whether your employment continues over such periods. There is no extra leave entitlement to
cover the Christmas period. 
 You are not permitted to carry over unused holiday from one holiday year to the next without the prior
approval of your line manager or his/ her designated representative, which will normally only be given in exceptional circumstances. For your welfare, two weeks of holiday must be taken as complete weeks of holiday. This may be either one fortnight
or two separate weeks. No payment in lieu will be made for holiday not taken in any holiday year (except on termination of employment). In the interests of business efficiency not more than 3 consecutive weeks of holiday will normally be permitted.

 The Company will try to accommodate holidays being taken on the dates requested. Where business demands make taking holiday difficult,
this will be dealt with on an individual basis. 
 Upon termination of your employment for any reason you shall be entitled to payment in
lieu on a pro rata basis for any holidays not taken which have accrued in the holiday year in which the date of termination falls. Upon termination of employment for any reason (including where you are dismissed summarily for gross misconduct) you
shall repay the Company, or have deducted from your final salary or any other payments due to you, any salary received in respect of holiday taken prior to the date of termination in excess of your proportionate entitlement. Any payment in respect
of accrued but untaken holiday, or overpaid holiday, is calculated at the daily rate of 1/260th of your annual base salary (pro- rated as appropriate for part- time staff). The Company may, at its
absolute discretion, require you to take holiday entitlement during your notice period. If your last day of employment is on or after the 15th of the month you will be entitled to the pro rata amount of holiday entitlement for that month. You will
not be entitled to a payment in respect of any holiday accrued but untaken on termination if you refuse to take such holiday entitlement during the notice period. 

Further information on holiday entitlement can be found in the relevant Company policy.

	5.0	SICKNESS 

  

	5.1	Sick Pay 

 If you are absent from work due to sickness or injury and subject to your
compliance with the provisions relating to sickness absence notification and proof of incapacity as set out in the Sick Leave and Sickness Absence Notification policy (which is available on the Company’s intranet), the Company may at its sole
and absolute discretion, pay you sick pay, based on your normal basic salary and your years of continuous service with the Company and any Associated Company and based on the following table: 

 

			
	Length of service at start of sickness/ injury absence	  	Maximum number of days for which Company sick pay (to include any entitlement to statutory sick pay) may be paid for a full time employee normally working 40 hours per week, to be pro- rated for part time employees
		
	Up to 1 year exactly	  	20 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 1 year and up to 2 years exactly	  	40 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 2 years and up to 3 years exactly	  	60 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 3 years	  	60 working days at basic salary followed by 60 working days at half basic salary

 The payments given above are the normal maximum sick pay payments that will be paid in any rolling 12 month
period and apply whether the periods of absence are continuous or intermittent. They are inclusive of any entitlement that you may have in that period to any statutory or legally mandated sick pay. 

Any further payments of Company sick pay above the limits stated above shall be at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion. 

 

	5.2	Cessation of employment 

 If you are unable to perform your duties through sickness or
injury for a period of 26 consecutive weeks or for periods aggregating 26 weeks in any period of 52 weeks, the Company shall be entitled to terminate your employment on notice. 

  
 Page 11 of
31 

 

 
  
  
  

 

	5.3	Unauthorised Absence 

 The Company reserves the right to withhold payment of or deduct
from your salary one day’s pay for each day of unauthorised absence from work. “Unauthorised absence” means failure to report to work unless this is due to genuine sickness or injury notified to the Company in accordance with Company
procedures, leave for which permission has been granted by your manager, or genuine reasons outside your control which are acceptable to the Company and agreed by your manager. 

 

	5.4	Medical Examination 

 The Company may on reasonable notice require you to undergo
medical examinations undertaken by a registered medical practitioner nominated by the Company and at the Company’s expense at any time. Subject to the normal legal provisions, the medical practitioner may disclose to and discuss with the
Company or any Associated Company, on a confidential basis, the results of the examination and the matters which arise from it where this information or any medical condition affects or may affect your ability to perform your job properly or affects
or may affect your sick pay entitlement in any way. 
  

	6.0	DIRECTORSHIPS 

 It is usual practice for the Company to nominate appropriate employees
to serve on the boards of companies, in which the group has shareholdings, including Associated Companies. In England and Wales, directors of companies have duties and responsibilities that are specified in part in legislation and in part in the
relevant Articles of Association. Such obligations and responsibilities which derive from holding office as a director are separate to the terms of your employment with the Company. All directors have a duty to declare their other directorships,
relevant shareholdings, and interest in material contracts. Further information about directors’ obligations can be obtained from the relevant company’s Secretary. 

By entering into this agreement, you agree that if you are appointed as a director and/ or officer of the Company and/ or any of its
Associated Companies you will comply with all associated duties, whether applicable in England and Wales or otherwise, including but not limited to any applicable duties or requirements as an officer under the Companies Act 2006 (as amended) (in the
United Kingdom) and section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended) (in the United States of America). 
 You further agree
that at any time during your employment at the request of the Company or any Associated Company in relation to which you hold a directorship, and immediately on termination of your employment for whatever reason, you will resign from all offices
held in the Company and any Associated Company (as applicable) (without prejudice to the rights of any party arising out of this Contract or the termination of your employment) without any compensation for loss of office and resign from membership
of any association acquired exclusively by reason of or in connection with your employment. Should you fail to resign from such offices in accordance with this provision, the Company and/ or any Associated Company is irrevocably authorised to
appoint a person in your name and on your behalf to sign a document or do anything necessary or requisite to bring about the appropriate resignation.

will immediately disclose it and account for it to the Company. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this clause 7

clause 4 (or such of those restrictions as may be appropriate) in relation to that Group Company. 

  

	5.	INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, REMEDIES AND ATTORNEYS FEES 

  

	5.1	The Employee recognises that their violation of this agreement could cause the Company and/or any Group Company irreparable harm, the amount of which may be extremely difficult to estimate, making any remedy at law or
in damages inadequate. Thus, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or any Group Company shall have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for an order restraining any breach or threatened breach of this agreement and for any
other relief the Company and/or any Group Company deems appropriate. This right shall be in addition to any other remedy available to the Company and/or any Group Company. Should the Company and/or the Group Company successfully enforce any portion
of this agreement or obtain judgment against the Employee for a breach of this agreement before a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be entitled to receive and recover from the Employee all of its reasonable attorney’s fees, litigation
expenses and costs incurred as a result of enforcing this agreement and/ or obtaining judgment against the Employee.

the Employee agrees to indemnify the Company and/or the Group Company for any losses suffered as a result thereof, including but not limited to the repayment of any severance pay and benefits provided over and above the Employee’s contractual
and statutory entitlement by the Company and/or any Group Company including any payments made under any severance plan and all reasonable legal and professional fees incurred.

	 	b)	Each party acknowledges that in entering into this agreement it has not relied on and shall have no remedy in respect of any Pre-Contractual Statement. 

 

	 	c)	Nothing in this agreement shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

which, when executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all the counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 By signing this Contract, you agree and consent that where the need arises, the Company may
require you to undertake duties or jobs outside the normal scope of your position. Where this need arises the Company shall inform you of the change. In exceptional circumstances this may include a post of a higher or lower grade: any proposal to

 During the period of employment you are required, and agree, to:- 

devote the whole of your time, attention and ability during your hours of work to carrying out your duties solely for the Company or any

any Associated Company or for any of its or their customers or clients; 
 comply with all instructions given to you by the Company or any
Associated Company, whether given verbally or in writing, and whether contained in policies or procedures or otherwise, and if so instructed comply with all instructions given by any customer or client of the Company or any Associated Company to the
extent that they do not conflict with any instructions given to you by the Company or Associated Company;

such explanations as it may require; 
 exercise such powers in relation to the conduct and management of the affairs of the Company and any

not do anything to undermine the business or reputation of the Company or any Associated Company. 

 

	2.4	Place of Work 

 Your normal place of work is Reading and you agree to keep a residence
within a reasonable daily commute of your normal place of work. However, the Foster Wheeler Group is a global organisation with other locations and Associated Companies and affiliates worldwide and in the UK. Consequently, the Company reserves the
right to require you to work at another location within the UK where reasonably necessary for the performance of your duties or in the interests of the business. You may also be required to travel for business purposes, although it is not
anticipated that any such trip outside the UK would last for a period exceeding a month. The Company will endeavour to consult with you about any proposed changes to your work location. You may also be required to work from home during business
hours where the Company considers it appropriate.

	2.5	Business Trips 

 While on a business trip, you are required to comply with any applicable
Company or corporate travel policy, work practice, project or local travel policy or other guidance or rules. 
  

	2.6	Working Hours and Overtime 

 Your core working hours are 40 hours per week. 

The number of hours per week that you are required to work and the scheduling of those hours may be amended from time to time without notice to
meet client and management requirements. You may be expected to work hours in excess of your normal working week where this is necessary for the proper performance of your duties and where this is reasonably required by the Company to meet business
needs. 
 The Company believes that having regard to your position, the limits on working time imposed by the Working Time Regulations 1998
(as amended if applicable) do not apply. However, in signing this Contract you agree in any event that you will if reasonably required by the Company work hours in excess of an average 48 hours per week as defined by the Working Time Regulations
1998, and that the average weekly limit set out in regulation 4(1) of the Working Time Regulations 1998 shall not apply to your employment, subject to your right to withdraw this consent at any time by giving three months’ written notice. 

 

	2.7	Remuneration and Expenses 

 Your annual gross base salary (which shall be subject to
deductions for income tax and national insurance contributions as required by law) is £179,637 (one hundred and seventy nine thousand, six hundred and thirty seven pounds) payable monthly. 

Any change in your salary will be notified to you in writing. Salary reviews are carried out entirely at the Company’s discretion and the
Company shall be under no obligation to increase your salary as part of any review. Salary reviews are also subject to the approval of the Committee which shall be exercised at the Committee’s absolute discretion. Your next salary review will
occur during the first quarter of 2014. 
 You will be reimbursed for any reasonable expenses properly incurred by you while performing your
duties on behalf of the Company (and any Associated Company), provided that you produce receipts in support of and detailing such expenses when submitting your claim, and subject to your compliance with any rules, policies and procedures of the

	3.0	BENEFITS 

  

	3.1	Short Term Incentive (“STI”) Plan 

 You may be eligible during your employment
to participate, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Parent (the “Board”) or the Compensation and Executive Development Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board in their absolute discretion and in
accordance with any relevant policies, applicable law, or exchange listing requirements, in the Parent annual STI programme as in effect from time to time for senior executives. 

You shall be eligible for an annual STI award at a target opportunity of fifty percent (50%) of your annual gross base salary (with
payouts ranging from zero (0) to two times (2x) your target opportunity) based on achievement of certain objectives established in advance by the Company, the Board and/or the Committee and/ or their designate as necessary or appropriate
to comply with relevant policies, applicable law, or exchange listing requirements. The actual amount of STI shall be determined by and in accordance with terms of the STI programme (as amended from time to time) and you shall have no absolute right
to participate in the STI in any year. 
  

	3.2	Long-Term Incentive (“LTI”) 

 You shall be eligible during your employment for
annual equity awards, as determined by the Board and/or the Committee as necessary or appropriate to comply with Company policy, applicable law, or exchange listing requirements, under the equity or LTI plan for senior executives, as in effect from
time to time. The LTI plan currently in place is the Omnibus Plan. The actual amount of any LTI awards shall be determined by and in accordance with the terms of the then-current LTI award plan or programme by the Company, the Board, and/or the
Committee in their absolute discretion, and you shall have no absolute right to an LTI award in any year. 
  

	3.3	Company Car Cash Allowance 

 You are eligible for a company car cash allowance of
£14,400 per annum payable in monthly instalments with your salary payments. It will be separate from your salary and will be subject to tax and employee National Insurance contributions. It will not constitute pensionable
earnings. 
 Provided that you hold a current driving licence you will be required to use your own car for road network business travel
within the UK unless otherwise authorised by your manager. You must therefore insure your car for business use and ensure that it is well maintained, roadworthy and has a valid MOT certificate as applicable. 

The enclosed cash allowance information sheet contains important information about the company car cash allowance. By signing this Contract,
you indicate that you have read and understood this information. Please note that this information does not form part of your contract of employment and will be changed from time to time. Changes may be made without notice.

	3.4	Private Healthcare Plan 

 The Company will bear the reasonable costs of membership of a
private healthcare plan for your benefit. 
 Membership of the plan is subject to the terms of the plan and the rules or insurance policy of
the plan provider, in each case as may be amended from time to time, and is subject always to the plan provider’s willingness to provide cover. It is a taxable benefit. You may be able to purchase additional cover for your partner and any
eligible dependent children. 
  

	3.5	Pension 

 You will remain a member of the Foster Wheeler Pension Plan. 

No contracting out certificate under the Pensions Schemes Act 1993 (as amended as applicable) is in force in respect of your employment with
the Company. 
  

	3.6	Other Benefits 

 Subject to eligibility, you may be able to participate in certain
insurance or other schemes as may be made available to you by the Company or an Associated Company from time to time. If you do participate in any such insurance schemes, and whether the particular scheme is contractual or non-contractual, payments
will be made to you only insofar as the terms of the applicable Company/ Associated Company policy provides for cover and (where cover under the scheme is provided by an external organisation) where the applicable insurance policy provides for and
pays for cover. The Company reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to discontinue, vary or amend the benefits provided at any time on reasonable notice to you. 
  

	3.7	Deductions 

 The Company will be entitled, at any time, to deduct from any salary or
other remuneration due to you any monies that may be due and owing to the Company or any Associated Company (if applicable), including without limitation any overpayment, transitional payments, advances or loans made to you by the Company and/or any
Associated Company, pay received for holiday taken in excess of pro rata entitlement or during periods of unauthorised absences, excess of commission paid and advance payments for anticipated expenses in excess of those expenses actually incurred.

 Where any property or money belonging to the Company or any Associated Company or any client, customer, visitor, employee or agent of the
Company or any Associated Company is lost or damaged through dishonesty on your part, or because of your serious or persistent negligence or recklessness or through any serious or persistent breach of the Company’s or any Associated
Company’s rules, the Company reserves the right to require you to pay for any such loss or damage by a deduction from salary or other payments due to you from the Company. 

  
 Page 7 of
31 

 

 
  

 By signing this Contract you accept the Company’s right to make such deductions. If the
Company (or Associated Company as applicable) is unable, for whatever reason, to recoup monies due by making deductions, then it reserves its rights to pursue such repayment by other means, including through civil legal action. 

 

	3.8	Personal Indemnity 

 You shall indemnify the Company on a continuing basis in relation to
any income tax and National Insurance contributions (save for employers’ National Insurance contributions), including any related interest, penalties, costs and expenses, which may be incurred by the Company if any exemptions applied under this
contract of employment do not apply. 
  

	4.0	HOLIDAYS 

 You shall be entitled to 30 days paid holiday per annum 

Full time employees are also entitled to 8 public and other statutory holidays in England and Wales per annum. 

The Company’s holiday year runs from 1st January to 31st December. 

In some circumstances the Company or any Associated Company may direct you to take holiday on specific days, such as during the Christmas
period. You will be notified if you need to keep aside any leave to cover such periods as this will vary each year and will depend upon whether your employment continues over such periods. There is no extra leave entitlement to cover the Christmas
period. 
 You are not permitted to carry over unused holiday from one holiday year to the next without the prior approval of your line
manager or his/ her designated representative, which will normally only be given in exceptional circumstances. For your welfare, two weeks of holiday must be taken as complete weeks of holiday. This may be either one fortnight or two separate weeks.
No payment in lieu will be made for holiday not taken in any holiday year (except on termination of employment). In the interests of business efficiency not more than 3 consecutive weeks of holiday will normally be permitted. 

The Company will try to accommodate holidays being taken on the dates requested. Where business demands make taking holiday difficult, this
will be dealt with on an individual basis. 
 Upon termination of your employment for any reason you shall be entitled to payment in lieu on
a pro rata basis for any holidays not taken which have accrued in the holiday year in which the date of termination falls. Upon termination of employment for any reason (including where you are dismissed summarily for gross misconduct) you shall
repay the Company, or have deducted from your final salary or any other payments due to you, any salary received in respect of holiday taken prior to the date of termination in excess of your proportionate entitlement. Any payment in respect of
accrued but untaken holiday, or overpaid holiday, is calculated at the daily rate of 1/260th of your annual base salary (pro- rated as appropriate for part- time staff). The Company

  
 Page 8 of
31 

 

 
  

 
may, at its absolute discretion, require you to take holiday entitlement during your notice period. If your last day of employment is on or after the 15th of the month you will be entitled to the
pro rata amount of holiday entitlement for that month. You will not be entitled to a payment in respect of any holiday accrued but untaken on termination if you refuse to take such holiday entitlement during the notice period. 

Further information on holiday entitlement can be found in the relevant Company policy. 

 

	5.0	SICKNESS 

  

	5.1	Sick Pay 

 If you are absent from work due to sickness or injury and subject to your
compliance with the provisions relating to sickness absence notification and proof of incapacity as set out in the Sick Leave and Sickness Absence Notification policy (which is available on the Company’s intranet), the Company may at its sole
and absolute discretion, pay you sick pay, based on your normal basic salary and your years of continuous service with the Company and any Associated Company and based on the following table: 

 

			
	Length of service at start of sickness/ injury absence	  	Maximum number of days for which Company sick pay (to include any entitlement to statutory sick pay) may be paid for a full time employee normally working 40 hours per week, to be pro- rated for part time employees
		
	Up to 1 year exactly	  	20 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 1 year and up to 2 years exactly	  	40 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 2 years and up to 3 years exactly	  	60 working days at basic salary
		
	Over 3 years	  	60 working days at basic salary followed by 60 working days at half basic salary

 The payments given above are the normal maximum sick pay payments that will be paid in any rolling 12
month period and apply whether the periods of absence are continuous or intermittent. They are inclusive of any entitlement that you may have in that period to any statutory or legally mandated sick pay. 

  
 Page 9 of
31 

 

 
  

 Any further payments of Company sick pay above the limits stated above shall be at the
Company’s sole and absolute discretion. 
  

	5.2	Cessation of employment 

 If you are unable to perform your duties through sickness or
injury for a period of 26 consecutive weeks or for periods aggregating 26 weeks in any period of 52 weeks, the Company shall be entitled to terminate your employment on notice. 

 

	5.3	Unauthorised Absence 

 The Company reserves the right to withhold payment of or deduct
from your salary one day’s pay for each day of unauthorised absence from work. “Unauthorised absence” means failure to report to work unless this is due to genuine sickness or injury notified to the Company in accordance with Company
procedures, leave for which permission has been granted by your manager, or genuine reasons outside your control which are acceptable to the Company and agreed by your manager 
  

	5.4	Medical Examination 

 The Company may on reasonable notice require you to undergo medical
examinations undertaken by a registered medical practitioner nominated by the Company and at the Company’s expense at any time. Subject to the normal legal provisions, the medical practitioner may disclose to and discuss with the Company or any
Associated Company, on a confidential basis, the results of the examination and the matters which arise from it where this information or any medical condition affects or may affect your ability to perform your job properly or affects or may affect
your sick pay entitlement in any way. 
  

	6.0	DIRECTORSHIPS 

 It is usual practice for the Company to nominate appropriate employees to
serve on the boards of companies, in which the Foster Wheeler Group has shareholdings, including Associated Companies. In England and Wales, directors of companies have duties and responsibilities that are specified in part in legislation and in
part in the relevant Articles of Association. Such obligations and responsibilities which derive from holding office as a director are separate to the terms of your employment with the Company. All directors have a duty to declare their other
directorships, relevant shareholdings, and interest in material contracts. Further information about directors’ obligations can be obtained from the relevant company’s Secretary. 

By entering into this agreement, you agree that if you are appointed as a director and/ or officer of the Company and/ or any of its Associated
Companies you will comply with all associated duties, whether applicable in England and Wales or otherwise, including but not limited to any applicable duties or requirements as an officer under the Companies Act 2006 (as amended) (in the United
Kingdom) and section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended) (in the United States of America). 

  
 Page 10 of
31 

 

 
  

 You further agree that at any time during your employment at the request of the Company or
any Associated Company in relation to which you hold a directorship, and immediately on termination of your employment for whatever reason, you will resign from all offices held in the Company and any Associated Company (as applicable) (without
prejudice to the rights of any party arising out of this Contract or the termination of your employment) without any compensation for loss of office and resign from membership of any association acquired exclusively by reason of or in connection
with your employment. Should you fail to resign from such offices in accordance with this provision, the Company and/ or any Associated Company is irrevocably authorised to appoint a person in your name and on your behalf to sign a document or do
anything necessary or requisite to bring about the appropriate resignation. You hereby irrevocably appoint the Company to be your attorney to execute and do any such instrument or thing and generally to use your name for the purpose of giving the
Company or its nominee the full benefit of this clause. 
  

	7.0	CONFIDENTIALITY, CONFLICTS AND INTELLECTUAL PRPOPERTY RIGHTS

business, firm, company or other organisation which is a supplier to or customer of the Company or any Associated Company or which is wholly or partly in competition with the business carried on by the Company and/ or any Associated Company. 

If you undertake other work during your normal working hours or use Company or Associated Company equipment for purposes other than the
Company’s or Associated Company’s business, this will normally be treated as gross misconduct and could lead to dismissal. 
 If
you wish to lecture, give talks or public speeches, publish material in any form, or release information on matters related to or arising from your employment with the Company or any Associated Company, you must obtain prior written agreement from
the Company.

 If you wish to take office in a public or professional body or take employment outside your
core working hours you must obtain prior written agreement from the Company. 
 You agree that you will not during your employment with the
Company or in consequence of your employment directly or indirectly receive or accept any commission, discount, service or other benefit, gift or payment in respect of any business transacted by or on behalf of the Company or any Associated Company.
You further agree that if you do receive any such benefit, gift or payment you will immediately disclose it and account for it to the Company. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this clause 7 prohibits the Employee from being a passive owner of not more than five
percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as the Employee has no active participation in the business of such corporation. 

You shall comply where relevant with every rule of law, every regulation of The International Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and Republic

regulations of the stock exchange, market or dealing system in which such dealings take place. 
 You shall not at any time make any untrue
or misleading statement in relation to the Company and/ or any Associated Company. 
 For the purposes of this Contract, “Recognised
Investment Exchange” means any body of persons which is for the time being a Recognised Investment Exchange for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended). 

By accepting employment and signing this Contract of Employment with the Company you represent and warrant to the Company:- 

 

	 	(i)	that you are not party to any restrictive covenant or agreement that would preclude you from accepting employment with the Company and performing your duties as set out herein; and

	4.9	The Employee will, at the request and expense of the Company, enter into a separate agreement with any Group Company in which the Employee agrees to be bound by restrictions corresponding to those restrictions in this
clause 4 (or such of those restrictions as may be appropriate) in relation to that Group Company. 

  

	5.	INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, REMEDIES AND ATTORNEYS FEES 

  

	5.1	 The Employee recognises that their violation of this agreement could cause the Company and/or any Group Company irreparable harm, the amount of which
may be extremely difficult to estimate, making any remedy at law or in damages inadequate. Thus, the Employee agrees that the Company and/or any Group Company shall have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for an order
restraining any breach or threatened breach of this agreement and for any other relief the Company and/or any Group Company deems appropriate. This right shall be in addition to any other remedy available to the Company and/or any Group Company.
Should the Company and/or the Group Company successfully enforce any portion of this agreement or obtain judgment against the Employee for a breach of this agreement

before a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be entitled to receive and recover from the Employee all of its reasonable attorney’s fees, litigation expenses and costs incurred as a
result of enforcing this agreement and/ or obtaining judgment against the Employee. 

  

	5.2	If the Employee breaches any material provision of this agreement or pursues a claim against the Company and/or any Group Company in any country or jurisdiction arising out of the terms of this agreement or otherwise,
the Employee agrees to indemnify the Company and/or the Group Company for any losses suffered as a result thereof, including but not limited to the repayment of any severance pay and benefits provided over and above the Employee’s contractual
and statutory entitlement by the Company and/or any Group Company including any payments made under any severance plan and all reasonable legal and professional fees incurred. 

 

	6.	ENTIRE AGREEMENT 

  

	 	a)	This agreement and any document referred to in it constitutes the whole agreement between the parties (and in the case of the Company, as agent for any Group Companies) and supersedes all previous discussions,
correspondence, negotiations, arrangements, understandings and agreements between them in relation to the terms of this agreement. 

  

	 	b)	Each party acknowledges that in entering into this agreement it has not relied on and shall have no remedy in respect of any Pre-Contractual Statement. 

 

	 	c)	Nothing in this agreement shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud. 

  

	7.	VARIATION 

 No variation or agreed termination of this agreement shall be effective
unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives). 
  

	8.	SEVERABILITY 

 Each clause and sub-clause in this agreement is intended to be separate
and severable. If any clause or sub-clause shall be held to be void but would be valid if part of their wording were deleted, such clause or sub-clause shall apply with such deletion as may be necessary to make it valid or effective.
