on the Premises, whether or not any act or omission by them falls within the
scope of their employment or authority. In particular the Company shall comply
with the Purchaser's regulations as to the behaviour of persons whilst on its
sites. The Company shall promptly exclude from the Premises any of the Employees
whose behaviour in the Purchaser's opinion is unsuitable or inappropriate.

4.16 The Company will carry out its obligations under this Agreement in such a
manner so as not to interfere with the orderly carrying out of the Purchaser's
business at the Premises or cause any damage to the Premises.

5 Price of the Machines

5.1 Subject to clause 5.3, the price for each Machine purchased by the Purchaser
from the Company hereunder shall be calculated by reference to the number of
Machines forming the subject of each order placed by the Purchaser, in
accordance with the table set out in Schedule 3.

5.2 The purchase price for each Machine purchased by the Purchaser from the
Company hereunder shall be paid:

      (a) as to [CONFIDENTIALITY REQUESTED]% on the placing of the order for the
      Machine in question in accordance with clause 2.3, and

      (b) as to [CONFIDENTIALITY REQUESTED]% no later than seven days after
      the Acceptance Date.

5.3 Subject to clause 5.4 the Company reserves the right, by giving notice to
the Purchaser at any time, to increase the price of Machines to reflect any
increase in the cost to the Company which is due to any factor beyond its
control (such as, without limitation, currency regulation, alteration of duties,
significant increase in the costs of labour, materials or other costs of
manufacture ), any change in delivery dates, or specifications which is
requested by the Purchaser, or any delay caused by any instructions of the
Purchaser or failure of the Purchaser to give the Company adequate information
or instructions (provided that the Purchaser has been given reasonable notice of
the information and instructions which the Company requires) PROVIDED THAT:

      (i) subject to clause 5.9 the first such notice of increase shall not take
      effect before [CONFIDENTIALITY REQUESTED] and subsequent notices shall not
      take effect [CONFIDENTIALITY REQUESTED]; and

5.4 The Price of each Machine will be [CONFIDENTIALITY REQUESTED].

5.5 The Purchaser shall obtain the Confidential Items only from the Company but
shall be free to obtain other spare parts and/or tooling for the Machine from
any supplier. The Company undertakes to maintain such stock of Confidential
Items as may be necessary to enable it to supply such items to the Purchaser
within 24 hours of receipt of any order therefor from the Purchaser.

5.6 The prices for any spare or replacement Machine parts or tooling purchased
by the Purchaser from the Company shall be the Company's standard

<PAGE>

prices for such parts applicable on the date of order provided that such spare
parts and tooling will be supplied to the Purchaser at a cost no greater than
the Company charges to third parties (who purchase the same quantity or fewer
spare parts and tooling as the Purchaser) for the same spare parts and/or
tooling.

5.7 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing all prices referred to in this
agreement or elsewhere shall be exclusive of:

      (a) any costs of packaging, carriage and insurance of the Machines,

      (b) any applicable value added tax or other sales tax or duty, which shall
      be added to the sum in question.

5.8 If the Purchaser fails to pay on the due date any amount which is payable to
the Company under this Agreement then, without prejudice to clause 12.2:

      (a) that amount shall bear interest from the due date until payment is
      made in full, both before and after any judgment, at 4 per cent per annum
      over Barclays Bank plc base rate from time to time; and

      (b) the Company shall be entitled to suspend deliveries of Machines until
      the outstanding amount has been received by the Company from the
      Purchaser.

5.9 The restrictions on the frequency of price increases contained in clause
5.3(i) shall not apply in circumstances where the reason for the increased cost
incurred by the Company is that changes in the Specification have required
increased quantities of materials or different specifications or grades of
materials to be used in the manufacture of the Machines.

6. Title to Machines and documentation

6.1 Title to any Machine shall not pass to the Purchaser until the date that the
Purchase Price for the Machine in question and value added tax thereon (if
applicable) and any applicable packaging, carriage and insurance charges have
been paid in full to the Company ('the Payment Date').

6.2 Until the Payment Date the Purchaser shall not be entitled to sell transfer
lease charge assign by way of security or otherwise deal in or encumber the
Machine in question and the relationship between the Company and the Purchaser
in respect of such Machine including any proceeds of sale or other consideration
therefor shall be a fiduciary one.

6.3 If either:

      6.3.1 the Purchaser fails to effect payment in full of all sums due
      hereunder by the due date, or

      6.3.2 prior to the Payment Date the Purchaser convenes a meeting of its
      creditors or a proposal is made for a voluntary arrangement within Part I
      of the Insolvency Act 1986 or a proposal for any other composition scheme
      or arrangement with (or assignment for the benefit of) the Purchaser's
      creditors or if the Purchaser is unable to pay its debts within the
      meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or if a trustee receiver

<PAGE>

      administrative receiver or similar officer is appointed in respect of all
      or any part of the business or assets of the Purchaser or if a meeting is
      convened for the purpose of considering a resolution or other steps are
      taken for the winding up of the Purchaser or for the making of an
      administration order (otherwise than for the purpose of an amalgamation or
      reconstruction) then the Company (without prejudice to any other legal
      remedies it may have) shall at any time thereafter be entitled to enter on
      the Purchaser's premises or any other premises where the Machine in
      question is located (without notice to the Purchaser) and remove the
      Machine in question.

6.4 If in breach of clause 6.2 above the Purchaser sells any Machine prior to
the Payment Date then any proceeds of sale in respect thereof and all rights
arising under or in respect of said sale shall be held (in the case of the
proceeds of sale in a separate account) by the Purchaser as trustee for the
Company.

6.5 With effect from the date of delivery up to and including the Payment Date
the Purchaser shall insure the Machine in question for its full replacement
value with the Royal and Sun Alliance or such other insurance company as the
Company shall approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and shall
provide a copy of the insurance certificate to the Company promptly upon
request.

be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement, or otherwise be liable to the
other, for any delay in performance or the non-performance of any of its

party, and the time for performance of that obligation shall be extended
accordingly.

11.3 If at any time the Company claims Force Majeure in respect of its
obligations under this Agreement with regard to the supply of the Machines, the

      that the company resulting from the reorganisation effectively agrees to
      be bound by or to assume the obligations imposed on that other party under

      12.2.5 that other party ceases, or threatens to cease, to carry on
      business.

12.3 For the purpose of clause 12.2.1, a breach shall be considered capable of
remedy if the party in breach can comply with the provision in question in all
respects other than as to the time of performance (provided that time of
performance is not of the essence).

12.4 Any waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement
shall not be considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any
other provision.

12.5 The rights to terminate this Agreement given by this clause shall not
prejudice any other right or remedy of either party in respect of the breach
concerned (if any) or any other breach.

by it and to exercise any of the rights granted to it under this Agreement
through any other company which at the relevant time is its holding company or
subsidiary (as defined by section 736 of the Companies Act 1985, as amended) or

do so on the basis of or rely on any representation, warranty or other provision
except as expressly provided in this Agreement, and accordingly all conditions,
