	6.
	The Majority Sellers shall have no liability in respect of any claims by the Buyer in respect of any breach of the Warranties by the Warrantors:

		
	6.1
	to the extent that its subject matter is specifically provided for in sufficient detail to identify the matter in the Accounts or the Management Accounts or in the notes to the Accounts or the Management Accounts;

	6.8.2

	neither the Buyer nor the Company or any of the Subsidiaries shall be entitled to recover damages in respect of any claim by the Buyer in respect of any breach of the Warranties if, and to the extent that, the Buyer or the Company or any of the Subsidiaries has already recovered damages in respect of the same fact or subject matter.

		
	9.
	Where the Buyer or a Group Company is entitled to recover a sum from or enforce any rights against a third party (not being the Buyer or any Group Company) (a "Third Party") or dispute, resist, appeal or defend any matter relating to a claim for breach of Warranty following service of a notice, the Buyer and the Group shall (if so required by the Sellers’ Representative) take reasonable steps to enforce such recovery and shall procure that the Majority Sellers and their advisers are given reasonable access to any 

48

relevant documents and information in respect of the Buyer and the Group as are necessary to enable the Warrantors and/or their advisers to promptly and effectively evaluate the Buyer's or Group Company's rights in respect of recovery against the Third Party, save where to do so would or might reasonably breach or endanger the Buyer’s or any Group Company of the Buyer’s legal privilege in any such documents or records or any obligations of confidentiality owed to a third party.
		
	10.

	3.
	Exclusions and limitations of liability

		
	3.1
	The Majority Sellers shall not be liable to make any payment under paragraph 2 of this Schedule in respect of any Tax Liability or other liability (a “Covenant Liability”) to the extent that:

		
	3.1.1
	provision or reserve was made in the Accounts, Management Accounts and the Completion Accounts in respect of the Covenant Liability or to the extent that such Covenant Liability was taken into account in computing the amount of any such provision or reserve in the preparation of the Accounts; 

		
	3.1.2
	such Tax Liability was discharged (whether by payment or utilisation of any Relief) prior to Closing; 

		
	3.1.3
	the Covenant Liability arises or is increased as a result of any increase in the rates of Tax, or a change in legislation, applicable law, published concessions or practice of any Tax Authority of general application coming into force after Completion; 

		
	3.1.4
	such Covenant Liability arose as a direct result of a voluntary transaction act or omission entered into, carried out or failed to be carried out by or on behalf of the Company or the Buyer after Completion, including any winding up, cessation of trade, a change in the nature of or method of carrying on trade or business by the Company after Completion or reorganization or change in the ownership of the Buyer’s Group after Completion, other than any such transaction or act:

	which is carried out or effected in the ordinary course of business of the Company as carried on at Completion;

	3.1.7

54

extent the Buyer or the Company are entitled to recover the loss or damage suffered by them under the terms of any insurance policy; 
		
	3.1.8
	to the extent a Relief (other than a Buyer’s Relief) is available (at no cost to the Buyer) or made available to the Company to set off or otherwise mitigate such Taxation; 

		
	3.1.9
	to the extent that the claim would not have arisen but for the fact that the accounting basis, policies, method or practice of any member of the Buyer's Group or of the Company, are changed after Completion save where such change is necessary to comply with any law of relevant accounting standard;

		
	3.1.10
	to the extent that the claim arises out of or is increased by some voluntary act, omission, transaction or arrangement carried out at the request of or with the consent of the Buyer or a member of the Buyer's Group before Completion or under the terms of this Schedule or the Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by it; 

		
	3.1.11
	to the extent that the claim would not have arisen but for the making of a claim, election, surrender or disclaimer, the giving of a notice or consent in each case after Completion by any member of the Buyer’s Group the making or doing of which was not taken into account in computing and so reducing any provision or reserve for Tax in the Completion Accounts; 

		
	3.1.12
	to the extent that the Tax Liability would not have arisen or the amount thereof would have been less but for a failure on the part of any other member of the Buyer's Group or the Buyer to file, after Completion and within the time prescribed for doing so, such returns, elections and notices as are reasonable to expect them to file and details of such returns, elections and notices have been notified to the Buyer within a reasonable time to allow the Buyer to consider whether the Company should take such action and provided such action will not adversely impact the Tax position of the Buyer or any member of the Buyer's Group; or

		
	3.1.13
	to the extent that the Tax Liability or claim would not have arisen except as a result of a failure by any Buyer's Group company to comply with any obligations contained in this Agreement.

		
	4.
	Payments under this Schedule

		
	4.1
	The amount to be treated as the Covenant Liability (other than any payment under paragraph 2.2) is:

		
	4.1.1
	in the case of an Actual Tax Liability, the amount of the payment or increased payment of or in respect of Tax;

		
	4.1.2
	in the case of a liability falling within part (a) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability, the amount of the repayment of Tax which would have been obtained had the Loss or setting off referred to in that part not occurred;

		
	4.1.3
	in the case of a liability falling within part (b) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability, the amount of Tax, on the basis of the tax rates current at the Accounts Date which would otherwise have been saved by the Company had the Loss referred to in that part not occurred, assuming for this purpose that the Company had sufficient profits or was otherwise in a position to use the Relief;

55

		
	4.1.4
	in the case of a liability falling within part (c) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability (other than the setting off or deduction of an Accounts Relief, which shall be calculated in accordance with paragraph 4.1.3), the amount of Tax, on the basis of the tax rates current at the Accounts Date, which has been saved by the Company as a result of the set off or deduction referred to in that part.

		
	4.2
	The due date for payment, where the Majority Sellers are liable to make any payment under paragraph 2 of this Schedule or under the Tax Warranties, shall be on or before the later of five Business Days following the date on which the Buyer notifies the Sellers' Representative of the liability to make payment including the amount of that payment and:

		
	4.2.1
	in the case of an Actual Tax Liability, five Business Days before the latest date on which the Tax would have to be paid to the relevant Tax Authority without a liability (or further liability) to interest or penalties accruing;

		
	4.2.2
	in a case that falls within part (a) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability, the date on which the Tax would otherwise have been due for repayment by the relevant Tax Authority;

		
	4.2.3
	in a case that falls within part (b) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability, five Business Days before the latest date on which the Tax (which would not otherwise have been payable) becomes payable (or would have become payable assuming, for these purposes, that the Company had sufficient profits against which the Accounts Relief in question could have been set-off or was otherwise able to use the Accounts Relief in question) to the relevant Tax Authority without a liability (or further liability) to interest or penalties accruing; and

		
	4.2.4
	in the case of a liability falling within part (c) of the definition of Deemed Tax Liability (other than the setting off or deduction of an Accounts Relief, which payment shall be due in accordance with paragraph 4.2.3), the date on which the Tax would have been due and payable without a liability to interest or penalties accruing but for the set off or deduction of the relevant Buyer's Relief.

		
	4.3

	5.
	Gross up and withholding

		
	5.1
	All sums payable by the Majority Sellers to the Buyer under this Schedule shall be paid free and clear of all deductions or withholdings save only as may be required by law.

		
	5.2
	If any deductions or withholdings are required by law to be made from any payment by the Majority Sellers under this Schedule (other than a payment of interest), the Majority Sellers shall pay the Buyer, at the same time as making the payment in question, such additional amount as will, after such deduction or withholding has been made, leave the Buyer 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.

56

		
	5.3
	If a Tax Authority charges to Tax (including where the sum is brought into any computation of income, profits or gains but is not charged to Tax because of the use of a Buyer's Relief) any sum paid under paragraph 2 of this Schedule, the Majority Sellers shall pay the Buyer such additional amount as will ensure that the Buyer shall receive and retain the amount that is equal to the amount it would have received and retained had the payment in question not been charged to Tax.

		
	5.4
	Paragraphs 5.2 and 5.3 shall not apply to the extent that the deduction, withholding or Tax would not have arisen but for an assignment by the Buyer of any of its rights under this Schedule.

		
	5.5
	If any amount is paid by the Majority Sellers under paragraph 2.1 and/or under paragraphs 5.2 and 5.3 and after making such relevant payment, the Buyer's Group Company actually recovers from a third party a sum which would have reduced the liability of the Majority Sellers to make such payment, the Buyer shall repay to the Majority Sellers the lower of:

		
	5.5.1
	the amount by which the amount paid by the Majority Sellers under this Schedule in respect of that Tax Liability would have been reduced; and

		
	5.5.2
	any sum recovered by the relevant Buyer’s Group Company in respect of the Tax Liability.

	(c)
	the Buyer shall not be obliged to comply with any request to, avoid, mitigate, resist, defend, appeal against or contest any Tax Assessment and any determination in respect thereof unless and until the Majority Sellers has first indemnified and, if reasonably requested, secured the Company to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction against all liabilities, costs, damages and expenses and any additional Tax Liability which may be incurred or suffered by the Buyer or the Company in relation to or as a result of taking such actions in relation to a Tax Assessment.

		
	6.3
	Restrictions on conduct
