2.2In the event that, during the Lock-up Period and following the request of any member of the Pfizer Group or the GSK Group in connection with a proposed action that would otherwise be prohibited by the restrictions set out in clause 2.1, each of Bank of America and Citi agrees in writing that the restrictions set out in clause 2.1 should not apply in whole or in part (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), then the restrictions set out in clause 2.1 shall not apply, provided that any such release from the restrictions set out in clause 2.1 shall apply pro rata to Pfizer and the members of the Pfizer Group, on the one hand, and GSK and the members of the GSK Group on the other hand, in accordance with their relative legal and/or beneficial ownership of Haleon Ordinary Shares as of the date of such release, or in such other proportions as Pfizer and GSK may mutually agree in writing.

Haleon Ordinary Shares by any of the Employee Share Trusts; provided that if any member of the GSK Group transfers any Haleon Ordinary Shares to any Employee Share Trust or any person controlled directly or indirectly by one or more Employee Share Trusts, then such Haleon Ordinary Shares, and sales of such Haleon Ordinary Shares, will be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Deed in all respects to the same extent as all other Haleon Ordinary Shares held by the GSK Group.

Furthermore, each Party acknowledges and agrees that it will not raise any objection to the application by or on behalf of any other Party or any member of any Party’s Group, as applicable, for any such remedies.
