10.9.1.10 the liability has been satisfied (otherwise than by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser Group including any Group Company but only if and to the extent that the Seller would otherwise have been liable to the Purchaser under this agreement in respect of the liability of that Group Company);

10.9.1.11 the liability would not have arisen, but for an act carried out by the Seller or a Group Company prior to Completion which is both (i) at the request or with the approval of the Purchaser; and (ii) outside the ordinary course of the Seller’s or that Group Company’s respective normal businesses. Such acts shall not include, for the avoidance of doubt, the individual transactions of the Reorganisation;

10.9.1.12 where payment of Tax is by instalments, interest or penalties arise as a consequence of the underpayment of an instalment attributed to any Group Company prior to Completion, where such interest or penalties would not have arisen but for the receipt or accrual of income, profits or gains after Completion which was not reasonably foreseeable at the time when the instalment payment was made;

10.9.1.13 recovery has been made in respect of the same subject matter under this agreement or otherwise; or

10.9.1.14 notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, the liability is a liability of a Group Company in respect of any transfer Tax (together with any interest or penalties thereon) arising on the entry into any agreement(s) (whenever entered into) for the direct or indirect transfer on or after Completion of the shares in any Group Company or arising on the direct or indirect transfer of the shares in any Group Company on or after Completion.

10.9.2 The Seller shall not be liable in respect of any breach of the Tax Warranties if, and to the extent that, the loss incurred is or has been included in any claim under this agreement which has been satisfied in full and in cleared funds nor shall the Seller be liable in respect of a claim under this agreement if, and to the extent that, the amount claimed is or has been included in a claim for breach of the Tax Warranties which has been satisfied in full except, in either case, to the extent that such claim or loss has not been satisfied in full due to the operation of this clause 10.9.

10.9.3 The Seller shall not be liable in any case in respect of the amount of Tax losses of the Company and the Group Companies, and in particular shall not be liable for the increase or decrease of such amount nor the ability of the Purchaser or the Purchaser Group to use such Tax losses. In this respect and for sake of clarity, the Seller should notably not be liable for any corporate income taxes reassessment (including impôt sur les sociétés, contribution sociale sur l’impôt sur les sociétés, contribution exceptionnelle sur l’impôt sur les sociétés and imposition forfaitaire annuelle, as well as penalties and late payment interest reassessed by the French

26

tax authorities) of the Group Companies to the extent that such corporate income taxes reassessment does not create additional positive tax burden at the level of the Tax Group.

10.10 Credit for benefits

In calculating the liability of the Seller in relation to any Warranty Claim, there shall be taken into account past, present and future quantifiable financial benefit accruing to the Purchaser Group as a result of the matter giving rise to such Warranty Claim (including the amount of any reduction in, or relief from, Tax).

10.11 No double recovery

Any payment made by the Seller in respect of any Claim shall satisfy and discharge any other Claim which is capable of being made against the Seller in respect of the same matter, but only to the extent of the payment made.

10.12 Claim to be reduction of Consideration

Any payment by the Seller in respect of any Claim shall be deemed to reduce the Consideration received by the Seller.

11. SELLER CLAIMS HANDLING

11.1 Notification, information and access

Notwithstanding clause 11.3, the Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the Purchaser Group shall:

11.1.1 as soon as reasonably practicable, notify the Seller of any matter that it becomes aware of that has given or is likely to give rise to a Warranty Claim, Defendant Claim or Recovery Claim and keep the Seller fully and promptly informed of all material developments relating to it; and

11.1.2 provide the Seller and its representatives with reasonable access to, and (at the Seller’s expense) copies of, all information which is or may be relevant to any such Warranty Claim, Defendant Claim or Recovery Claim.

Nothing in this clause 11.1 shall require the Purchaser Group to provide access to any information (a) in breach of any applicable law, or (b) that has been prepared by it or its advisers with a view to assessing the merits of any actual or potential Warranty Claim.

11.2 Mitigation and third party claims

Notwithstanding clause 11.3:

11.2.1 The Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the Purchaser Group shall, take all reasonable steps to avoid or mitigate any loss, liability or damage which may arise from any matter that has given or is likely to give rise to a Warranty Claim (including any Defendant Claim) and to maximise sums recovered from any Recovery Claim.

27

11.2.2 In particular, the Purchaser shall, and shall procure that the Purchaser Group shall:

11.2.2.1 take such action, or ensure that any member of the Purchaser Group takes such action, as the Seller may reasonably require to avoid, contest, dispute, resist, appeal, compromise or defend the third party claim (including, but without limitation, making counter claims and exercising all rights of set off against third parties);

11.2.2.2 permit the Seller, and ensure that any member of the Purchaser Group permits the Seller (if applicable), in the name of and on behalf of the Purchaser, and any member of the Purchaser Group, to have the sole conduct of all proceedings relating to the third party claim as the Seller may deem appropriate including the appointment of lawyers and other professional advisers and the making of any settlement or compromise of the third party claim; and

11.2.2.3 render or cause to be rendered to the Seller all assistance as the Seller may reasonably require (including providing access to information and to employees of the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser Group) for the purpose of avoiding, contesting, disputing, resisting, appealing, compromising or defending the third party claim,

provided that:

11.2.2.4 the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and all other members of the Purchaser Group from and against all costs reasonably incurred by them in complying with their respective obligations under paragraphs 11.2.2.1-11.2.2.3; and

11.2.2.5 the Seller shall not make any settlement or compromise of the third party claim which is likely to affect the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser Group without the prior approval of the Purchaser;

11.2.3 The Purchaser will not (and will procure that all other members of the Purchaser Group will not) make or attempt to make any admission of liability, agreement, settlement or compromise in relation to a third party claim without the consent of the Seller (that consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

11.2.4 The Purchaser shall in any event keep the Seller informed as to the steps which are being taken in connection with the third party claim.

11.3 Conduct of Tax claims

The provisions of this clause 11.3 are meant to complete the provisions relating to the conduct of Claims set out in clause 11. In case of any communications and enquiries from a Tax Authority as referred to in clause 9.5, the provisions of this clause 11.3 shall, to the extent possible, equally apply.

11.3.1 If the Purchaser or any Group Company becomes aware of any Claim for Tax, the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that that Group Company shall within 10 Business Days of becoming so aware (and in the case of the receipt of a Claim for Tax consisting of any assessment or demand for Tax or for which the time for response or appeal is limited, not less than 10 Business Days prior to the day on which the time for response or appeal expires) give written notice of the Claim for Tax to the Seller.

28

11.3.2 The Purchaser and the relevant Group Company shall respond to any written request for assistance, the making or withdrawing of any election, surrender, claim, disclaimer, notice or consent, information, documentation or access to premises or personnel from the Seller (“Request”) with sufficient promptness to allow a response to a Taxation Authority or other person in relation to which the liability arises or may arise within any prescribed time limit or, if later, within five Business Days of receiving any such Request from the Seller.

11.3.3 To the extent that the Purchaser or a Group Company is required or has the right to correspond with a Taxation Authority in respect of the matter, the Seller shall draft any correspondence or response (including any election, surrender, claim, disclaimer, notice or consent) to be sent to the Taxation Authority and the Purchaser shall, or shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall, send, or procure the sending of, such correspondence or response (including any, election, surrender, claim, disclaimer, notice or consent) to the Taxation Authority promptly and, in any event, within any applicable time limit. If such request is not made by the Seller promptly and without unreasonable delay, then the Purchaser and any relevant Group Company are only required to comply with the time restriction imposed by this clause 11.3 to the extent that they are able to do so within the time available, otherwise they will act promptly.

11.3.4 The Purchaser shall not be obliged to take any action under this clause 11.3 in the case of a Tax Claim in relation to which any member, or employee of any member, of the Seller Group is proven to have committed fraudulent conduct, fraud or wilful default, conduct involving dishonesty or any criminal offence.

11.3.5 Without prejudice to clause 10.9.3, neither the Purchaser nor any Group Company shall be obliged to take any action under this clause 11.3 which will have the effect of materially increasing the liability to Tax of any Group Company where that liability relates to an event occurring or income, profits or gains earned, accrued or received after Completion or in respect of any period commencing after Completion and:

11.3.5.1 has not been taken into account in the computation of the Completion Statements; and

11.3.5.2 such action has not been agreed with the Purchaser (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

11.3.6 All Group Companies shall comply with all requirements imposed upon them by any relevant Tax Authority, subject to the rights that the Group Companies have to dispute or challenge an audit, enquiry or other assessment by a relevant Tax Authority.

11.3.7 The Purchaser shall, or shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall, promptly notify the Seller of any audit by or meeting with any Tax Authority or relevant other party which relates wholly or partly to any event occurring, or any period commencing on or before Completion and allow the Seller and/or its professional advisors to be present at and participate in such audit or meeting (the costs of the Seller’s professional advisors shall be borne by the Seller).

11.3.8 The Purchaser agrees that it shall, and agrees to procure that any relevant Group Company shall, act in good faith to agree practical arrangements with the Seller for conducting the audit and presenting information on a basis consistent with the evaluation of the tax liabilities determined for the purposes of the Completion Statements.

29

11.3.9 The Purchaser shall, or shall procure that the relevant Group Company shall, not commence any litigation or other proceedings against a Tax Authority relating to an event causing any Claim for Tax, unless the prior approval for such litigation or other proceedings have been obtained from the Seller.

11.3.10 For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall procure that the Group Companies comply with this clause 11.3.

11.4 Recovery Claim receipts

If:

11.4.1 the Seller has made a payment in respect of a Warranty Claim (“Claim Payment”);

11.4.2 the Purchaser Group subsequently recovers any sum in respect of any corresponding Recovery Claim that was not taken into account in the determination or agreement of the Claim Payment (“Recovery Sum”); and

11.4.3 the aggregate of the Claim Payment and the Recovery Sum exceeds the loss suffered by the Purchaser in respect of the matter giving rise to such Warranty Claim (such excess being the “Excess Recovery”),

then the Purchaser shall repay promptly to the Seller an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the Claim Payment and (b) the Excess Recovery, less any Tax on the Recovery Sum and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser Group in relation to the Recovery Claim (to the extent not already and otherwise reimbursed by the Seller). For the purposes of calculating the liability of the Seller under clauses 10.1 and 10.2, an amount equal to such repayment shall be deemed never to have been paid by the Seller.

12. POST COMPLETION COVENANTS

12.1 Books and records

As from the Completion Date, and without prejudice to the Management Agreement Suite:

12.1.1 the Seller shall provide to the Purchaser, on reasonable request; and

12.1.2 the Purchaser shall provide to the Seller reasonable access to and the right to take,

copies and extracts of the books, records, documents and information (including information recorded or retained in any electronic form) of or relating to the Group Companies which are or may be relevant in connection with any claim brought by the Purchaser against the Seller under the Warranties or any other provision of this agreement for so long as any actual or prospective claims remain outstanding, or, if longer, a period of five calendar years from the Completion Date.
