5. Consideration adjustment
5.1 After Completion the parties shall use their respective best endeavours to procure the preparation of the Completion Accounts in accordance with Schedule 9 (Completion Accounts).
5.2 If, following agreement or determination of the Completion Accounts in accordance with Schedule 9 (Completion Accounts):
(a)the Estimated Adjustment Amount exceeds the Actual Adjustment Amount then, subject to sub-clause 5.3, the amount by which the Estimated Adjustment Amount exceeds the Actual Adjustment Amount shall be treated as a reduction from the Consideration (the "Consideration Reduction") and:
(i)if the Holdback Amount is less than the Consideration Reduction,
(A)the Purchaser and the Sellers irrevocably agree that the Holdback Amount is payable, and shall be paid to, the Purchaser; and
(B)the Sellers shall pay to the Purchaser the amount then outstanding following the release to the Purchaser of the Holdback Amount at sub-clause 5.2(a)(i)(A) in cash within [***] Business Days of the Determination Date and if no such payment is made by the FME

| 27 |

Shareholders, then the Purchaser and the Sellers agree that the outstanding amount due by the FME Shareholders shall be released to the Purchaser from the [***] in settlement of the FME Shareholders obligation to pay pursuant to this clause; or
(ii)if the Holdback Amount is more than the Consideration Reduction:
(A)an amount equal to the Consideration Reduction is to be deducted from the Holdback Amount and the parties irrevocably agree that such amount is payable, and shall be paid to, the Purchaser; and
(B)the balance of the amount then outstanding following the payment at sub-clause 5.2(a)(ii)(A) is payable to the Sellers from the Holdback Amount in cash within [***] Business Days of the Determination Date,

(b)the Estimated Adjustment Amount is equal to the Actual Adjustment Amount, then there will be no adjustment to the Consideration and the Holdback Amount shall be payable to the Sellers within [***] Business Days of the Determination Date in accordance with clause 23 (Payments) and such payment(s) shall be apportioned between the Sellers as set out in the Completion Allocation Schedule; or
(c)the Estimated Adjustment Amount is less than the Actual Adjustment Amount then, subject to sub-clause 5.3, the Consideration shall be treated as increased by the amount by which the Estimated Adjustment Amount is less than the Actual Adjustment Amount (the "Consideration Increase"). The Holdback Amount plus any additional Consideration required to satisfy the Consideration Increase shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Sellers in cash within [***] Business Days of the Determination Date. Such additional Consideration shall be apportioned between the Sellers as set out in the Completion Allocation Schedule.
5.3 If the:
(a)Consideration Reduction is £[***] or less, then, for the purposes of sub-clause 5.2(a), the Consideration Reduction shall be deemed to be [***]. If the Consideration Reduction is more than £[***] then for the purposes of sub-clause 5.2(a) the Consideration Reduction shall be the whole of the Consideration Reduction and not just the amount that exceeds £[***]; and
(b)If the Consideration Increase is £[***] or less, then, for the purposes of sub-clause 5.2(c), the Consideration Increase shall be deemed to be [***]. If the Consideration Increase is more than £[***] then, for the purposes of sub-clause 5.2(c) the Consideration Increase shall be the whole of the Consideration Increase and not just the amount that exceeds £[***].
5.4 Save where the contrary is expressly stated, the agreement or determination of the Completion Accounts does not constitute or operate as a waiver of any other rights, powers or remedies of the Purchaser or of any other provision of this Agreement and does not preclude the exercise of any other right, power or remedy of the Purchaser arising under this Agreement or otherwise.

Shares in accordance with this Agreement, give rise to a liability of the Sellers towards the Purchaser under this Agreement in excess of £[***]; or
(c)there has been a material breach by the Sellers of this Agreement in the period between the date of this Agreement and Completion and, if the Purchaser was to acquire the Completion Shares in accordance with this Agreement, such material breach would give rise to a liability of the Sellers towards the Purchaser under this Agreement in excess of £[***]; or

15.1 The Purchaser shall notify the Warrantors in writing of:
(a)any claim made against it by a third party which may give rise to a Non-Tax Claim; and
(b)any claim any Group Company is entitled to bring against a third party which claim is based on circumstances which may give rise to a Non-Tax Claim,
each such claim being a "Third Party Claim".
15.2 The Purchaser shall procure that the conduct, negotiation, settlement or litigation of such Third Party Claim is, so far as is reasonably practicable, carried out in accordance with the wishes of the Warrantors and/or the W&I Insurer and at their cost subject to their giving timely instructions to the Purchaser and providing reasonable security for any costs and expenses which might be incurred by the Purchaser or any Group Company and provided that:
(a)nothing in this clause 15 shall oblige the Purchaser to take any action which it considers to be detrimental to the business, trading relationships or reputation of any Group; and
(b)the provisions of this clause 15 shall not apply in relation to the relevant Third Party Claim if they could render any policy of insurance (including the W&I Policy) maintained by or available to the Purchaser or any other member of the Purchaser's Group void or voidable, or entitle the relevant insurer (including any W&I Insurer) to repudiate or rescind any such policy in whole or in part, or in the event that a relevant insurer (including any W&I Insurer) exercises its right to take over conduct of such Third Party Claim.
15.3 The rights of the Warrantors under this clause 15 (Purchaser's conduct of Third Party Claims) shall only apply to such Third Party Claim if the Warrantors jointly give notice to the Purchaser in writing of their intention to exercise their rights within [***] Business Days of the Purchaser giving notice of such Third Party Claim. If the Warrantors do not give notice during that period the Purchaser shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to settle, compromise, or take or resist any action, proceedings or claim in respect of such Third Party Claim. Until such time as the time period expires or the Warrantors do give notice of their intention to take conduct of the Third Party Claim, the Purchaser shall, or as the case may be shall procure that the Company shall:
(a)consult with the Warrantors as soon as reasonably practicable with regard to the Third Party Claim in question;
(b)provide the Warrantors on request with copies of all documents in relation to the relevant Third Party Claim, save where to do so would result in a breach of any obligation of confidentiality or the loss of legal professional privilege;
(c)take reasonable account of the views of the Warrantors with regard to the Third Party Claim in question; and

15.5 Subject to the prior entering into of reasonable confidentiality obligations by the Warrantors and their professional advisers, the Purchaser shall provide and shall procure that the Group provides to the Warrantors and their professional advisers reasonable access to premises and personnel and to any relevant assets, documents and records within their power, possession or control for the purpose of investigating any Third Party Claim and enabling the Warrantors to take the action referred to in sub-clause 15.2 (Purchaser's conduct of Third Party Claims)

16. The W&I Policy
16.1 The Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of the Warrantors, agree to any material amendment, variation or waiver of the W&I Policy with the W&I Insurer, the effect of which would, or could reasonably be expected to, increase the liability of the Warrantors in respect of a Claim.
16.2 The Warrantors acknowledge and agree with the Purchaser that the Warrantors shall not have any interest in the W&I Policy and shall not have any right or entitlement to receive any payment made by the W&I Insurer under the W&I Policy or to receive any payment, benefit or relief which is derived from or which is otherwise attributable to any payment under the W&I Policy.
17. Protection of goodwill
17.1 In order to assure to the Purchaser the full benefit of the business and goodwill of the Group, each Restricted Person severally undertakes on his/her own behalf that (save as may be bona fide in fulfilling his/her duties as an employee of any Group Company thereafter) they shall not directly or indirectly (whether as principal, shareholder, partner, employee, agent or otherwise), whether on its own account or in conjunction with or on behalf of any other person, do any of the following things:
(a)during the Restricted Period carry on or be engaged, concerned or interested in (except as the holder of shares in a company whose shares are listed on a recognised investment exchange or overseas investment exchange (as such terms are defined in Sections 285 and 313, Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) which confer not more than [***]% of the votes which could normally be cast at a general meeting of that company) any business which competes with any part of the Restricted Business; or
(b)during the Restricted Period canvass or solicit or seek to entice away the custom of any Client or Prospective Client for the purposes of providing Restricted Business; or
(c)during the Restricted Period employ or otherwise engage any Key Employee; or

(f)save in the circumstances referred to in sub-clause 19.10(b) (Confidentiality), disclose to any other person any information which is secret or confidential to the business or affairs of the Group or any Purchaser Group Company or use any such information to the detriment of the business of the Group or any Purchaser Group Company for so long as that information remains secret or confidential; or
(g)in relation to a business which is competitive or likely to be competitive with the Restricted Business, use any trade or business name or distinctive mark, style or logo used by or in the business of any Group Company at Completion or anything intended or likely to be confused with it.
17.2 Each undertaking contained in this clause 17 (Protection of goodwill) shall be construed as a separate and independent undertaking and, while the restrictions set out in this clause are considered by the parties to be reasonable in all the circumstances, it is agreed that if any one or more of such restrictions shall, either taken by itself or themselves together, be adjudged to go beyond what is reasonable in all the circumstances for the protection of the Purchaser's legitimate interests but would be adjudged reasonable if any particular restriction or restrictions were deleted or any part or parts of the wording thereof were deleted, restricted or limited in any particular manner (including without limitation any reduction in their duration or geographical scope) then the said restrictions shall apply with such deletions, restrictions or limitation as the case may be.
17.3 Each of the Founder Sellers severally agrees that, having regard to the facts and matters set out above and having taken professional advice, the restrictions contained in this clause 17 (Protection of goodwill) are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Purchaser.

8.The Warrantors' liability in respect of any Non-Tax Claim shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of any specific provision or specific accrual made in the Accounts and/or the Management Accounts for the matter giving rise to that Non-Tax Claim.
9.If the Warrantors and/or the W&I Insurer make any payment to the Purchaser or the Company or any Group Company in relation to any Non-Tax Claim and the Purchaser or the Company or any Group Company subsequently receives from a third party (other than the W&I Insurer) any amount referable to, or any benefit which would not have been received but for the circumstances giving rise to, the subject matter of that Non-Tax Claim, the Purchaser shall, once it or the Company or other Group Company has received such amount or benefit, immediately pay or procure the payment to the Warrantors and/or the W&I Insurer (as appropriate) of either:

(b)the amount paid by the Warrantors and/or W&I Insurer,
together with any interest or repayment supplement paid to the Purchaser or the Company or any other Group Company in respect of it. Any payment made, or procured to be made by the Purchaser under this paragraph 9 shall be made to the Warrantors and/or the W&I Insurer in the same proportions as the amounts paid by the Warrantors and/or the W&I Insurer to the Purchaser or the Company or other Group Company.
10.In the absence of fraud or dishonesty or wilful non-disclosure on the part of any of the Warrantors, and without prejudice to the terms of clause 16 (The W&I Policy), if the W&I Insurer:

(b)rescinds the W&I Policy; and/or
(c)denies coverage pursuant to the terms of the W&I Policy; and/or
(d)in any way refuses to meet any claim under the W&I Policy thereby denying the Purchaser the benefit of the W&I Policy,
then the Purchaser shall not pursue the Warrantors for any amounts that it would otherwise have been entitled to receive from the W&I Insurer pursuant to the terms of the W&I Policy.
11.Without limiting any obligations it may have at law or in equity, the Purchaser shall mitigate, and shall cause each Group Company to mitigate, any loss or liability which may give rise to a Claim.
12.Neither the Purchaser nor any Purchaser Group Company shall be entitled to recover damages or otherwise claim reimbursement or restitution in respect of damages, if and to the

| 80 | OC_UK/125258569.5

extent of the amount the Purchaser or any Purchaser Group Company has already recovered in respect of the same damage or loss.
13.The Sellers shall have no liability in respect of a Claim to the extent that it is based on or comprises indirect or consequential damages (including loss of revenue, income or profits to the extent that these are indirect or consequential damages).
14.The Purchaser waives any and all claims (including for negligence) that it might otherwise have against any officer, employee, agent, adviser or consultant of the Sellers (or any holding company, any subsidiary and any subsidiary undertaking of any Seller or such companies) (i) in respect of any information that any such person has in any capacity supplied to the Purchaser in connection with the Warranties and/or the information Disclosed; or (ii) otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges any claims under this Agreement may only be made directly against the Sellers, the Warrantors and/or pursuant to the terms of the W&I Policy (as applicable).
15.Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the sole remedy against the Sellers and/or the Warrantors (as applicable) for any breach of any of the Warranties or any other provision of this Agreement shall be an action for damages for breach of contract (to the exclusion of any other remedy including those in tort or arising under statute) and the Purchaser irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to rescind or terminate this Agreement before or following Completion.
16.The aggregate liability of the Warrantors in respect of all Claims in respect of the Warranties at paragraph 18.14 to 18.17 of Schedule 4 (Non-Tax Warranties), only in so far as they relate to matters occurring in [***], shall be capped at £[***], provided that for this purpose the words "so far as the Warrantors are aware" shall be deemed to apply to all statements contained in those Warranties.
