copyright works. 

  

	12.5	 You acknowledge that, except as provided by law, no further remuneration or compensation other than that
provided for in this Contract is or may become due to you in respect of your compliance with this clause. This clause is without prejudice to your rights under the Patents Act 1977. 

 

	12.6	 You undertake to use your best endeavours to execute all documents and do all acts both during and after your

documents may, at Arrival’s request, include waivers of all and any statutory moral rights relating to any copyright works which form part of the Employment IPRs. Arrival agrees to reimburse your reasonable expenses of complying with this
clause 12.6.

	12.8	 You hereby irrevocably appoint Arrival to be your attorney in your name and on your behalf to execute
documents, use your name and do all things which are necessary or desirable for Arrival to obtain for itself or its nominee the full benefit of this clause 12. This power of attorney is given by you as security for your obligations under this clause
12. You acknowledge that a certificate in writing, signed by any director or the secretary of Arrival, that any instrument or act falls within the authority conferred by this Contract shall be conclusive evidence that such is the case so far as any
third party is concerned. 

  

	13.	 PAYMENT IN LIEU OF NOTICE

  

	13.1	 Notwithstanding clause 2, Arrival may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate the Appointment at any
time and with immediate effect by notifying you that Arrival is exercising its right under this clause 13 and that it will make a payment in lieu of notice (Payment in Lieu). This Payment in Lieu will be equal to the basic salary (as at the
date of termination) which you would have been entitled to receive under this Contract during the notice period referred to at clause 2 (or, if notice has already been given, during the remainder of the notice period) less income tax and National
Insurance contributions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Payment in Lieu shall not include any element in relation to: 

  

	 	(a)	 any payment in respect of benefits which you would have been entitled to receive during the period for which
the Payment in Lieu is made; and 

  

	 	(b)	 any payment in respect of any holiday entitlement that would have accrued during the period for which the
Payment in Lieu is made. 

  

	13.2	 You shall have no right to receive a Payment in Lieu unless Arrival has exercised its discretion in clause
13.1. Nothing in this clause 13 shall prevent Arrival from terminating the Appointment for your breach of this Contract. 

  

	13.3	 Notwithstanding clause 13.1, you shall not be entitled to any Payment in Lieu if Arrival would otherwise have
been entitled to terminate the Appointment without notice in accordance with clause 14. In that case Arrival shall also be entitled to recover from you any Payment in Lieu already made. 

  
 10 

 Private and Confidential 
  

	14.	 TERMINATION WITHOUT NOTICE 

 

	14.1	 Arrival may terminate your Appointment with immediate effect without notice and with no liability to make any
further payment to you (other than in respect of amounts accrued due at the date of termination) if you:

	 	(e)	 cease to be eligible to work in the United Kingdom; 

 

	 	(f)	 are guilty of any fraud or dishonesty or act in any manner which in the opinion of Arrival brings or is likely
to bring you or Arrival into disrepute or is materially adverse to the interests of Arrival; 

  

	 	(g)	 are in breach of Arrival’s anti-corruption and bribery policy or the anti-harassment and bullying policy;
or 

  

	 	(h)	 are guilty of a serious breach of any rules issued by Arrival from time to time regarding the acceptable use
policy of its electronic communications systems. 

  

	14.2	 The rights of Arrival under clause 14.1 are without prejudice to any other rights that it might have at law to
terminate your Appointment or to accept any breach of this Contract by you as having brought the Contract to an end. Any delay by Arrival in exercising its rights to terminate shall not constitute a waiver thereof. 

 

	14.3	 On the termination of this Contract the provisions of Clauses 1, 11, 12, 15 to 17, 22, 24 to 29 (inclusive)
shall continue in full force and effect and any accrued claims or rights of any party at the time of termination shall not be affected by such termination but otherwise the provisions of this Contract shall cease to be effective.
