Without prejudice to the provisions of clause 9.4 below with regard to the awareness of each Warrantor, the obligations of each Seller under this Agreement (whether as a Seller or a Warrantor or otherwise) are entered into individually by that Seller on his own behalf and are made severally and separately from any obligation entered into by any other Seller. No claim can be made against any Seller in respect of any breach of this Agreement by any other Seller other than in respect of that Seller's own breach.

if it relates to any other matter under this Agreement, if it is jointly exercised, enforced or given jointly by or on behalf of the Investor Representative and the Warrantors' Representative (collectively, the "Sellers' Representatives"),

To the extent that any loss, damage or other liability of any Seller is incurred or increased as a result of any act, omission, agreement, approval, consent, deed or decision of the Sellers' Representatives or by any deed, agreement, instrument, consent or other document agreed, approved, signed, executed and/or delivered by the Sellers' Representatives, in each case acting in good faith in the proper execution and discharge of his appointment as Sellers' Representatives (as the case may be) hereunder, no Sellers' Representatives shall be responsible for, nor have any liability to any such Seller in relation to, any such loss, damage or other liability or such increased loss, damage or other liability.

Each Seller shall sell (or procure to be sold) with full title guarantee and free from Encumbrances, the number of Shares set out opposite his name in columns (3), (4) and (6) of Schedule 2, and the Buyer shall buy the Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.

The Buyer shall buy the Shares with effect from and including the Completion Date to the intent that as from that date all rights and advantages accruing to the Shares, including any dividends or distributions declared, made or paid on the Shares on or after that date, shall belong to the Buyer.

The Buyer shall not be obliged to complete the purchase of any of the Shares unless the sale of all the Shares is completed simultaneously.

Each Seller waives any rights or restrictions conferred on him which may exist in relation to the transfer of the Shares under the articles of association of the Company or the Existing Shareholders' Agreement.

The consideration for the sale of the Shares shall be the aggregate of:

the cash sum of DKK2,286,794,521 (two billion, two hundred and eighty six million, seven hundred and ninety four thousand, five hundred and twenty one Danish Krone); and

an additional cash sum equal to DKK482,192 (four hundred eighty two thousand, one hundred and ninety two Danish Krone) multiplied by the number of days between the date of this Agreement and the Completion Date (commencing on the date following the date of this Agreement and ending on (but including) the day immediately preceding the Completion Date),

The Consideration shall be apportioned between the Sellers as follows:

first the Preference Share Consideration shall be apportioned between the Sellers in the proportions set out in column 7 of the tables in Parts I – IV of Schedule 1; and

the balance of the Consideration remaining after the payment of the Preference Share Consideration pursuant to clause 3.2.1 in full ("Remaining Consideration") shall be apportioned between the Sellers in the proportions set out in column 5 of the tables in Parts I-IV of Schedule 1.

The Trustee Seller authorises and directs on Completion that all of the Consideration payable to it in its capacity as trustee of the EBT in relation to the EBT Shares (net of the Trustee Seller's pro rata share of transaction fees as notified to the Buyer by the Sellers' Representatives two Business Days prior to Completion) less an amount equal to the Trust Fee shall be paid directly by the Buyer to the Company, and the Buyer shall procure that:

DKK 50,000 shall be applied by the Company in full and final settlement of the Trust Loan;

the remainder, following any deductions required pursuant to 3.3.3 below, shall be applied by the Company (or as the Company may direct) in payment of the Trust Bonuses as soon as reasonably practicable following Completion, but in any event within 5 days of Completion, (subject to the deduction of all applicable Taxation that arises in

all applicable Taxation, including any employer social security contributions arising in connection with the payment of the Trust Bonuses, is (where applicable) deducted from the gross amount of the Trust Bonuses and paid to the relevant Taxation Authority by the due date.

To the extent that the amount of the Trust Bonuses, payment of the Trust Fee and repayment of the Trust Loan is less than the Consideration payable to the Trustee Seller in its capacity as trustee of the EBT in relation to the EBT Shares, the difference shall be paid to the Trustee Seller to the bank account specified by the Trustee Seller for such purpose.

The Buyer shall procure that all monies payable to any Seller under or pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid in full without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever (except such deductions as may be required by law, in which case such deduction or withholding shall not exceed the minimum amount required to be deducted or withheld under law) and the Buyer irrevocably waives any right to set-off or counterclaim against, or deduct from, any monies owed by it to any Seller.

merger control filings and notifications in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the following jurisdictions:

Subject to clause 5.4, the Buyer shall use its best endeavours to satisfy or procure the satisfaction of the Regulatory Conditions as soon as possible and in any event on or before the Longstop Date.

The Buyer shall within ten Business Days of the date of signing of this Agreement: (i) submit filings necessary to satisfy the Regulatory Conditions in Austria and Germany; and (ii) submit final draft notifications to satisfy the Regulatory Conditions in Ukraine and Lithuania (in each case in substantially the same form disclosed to the Sellers' Solicitors prior to any such filing) to the relevant Merger Control Authorities, provided that any information which the Buyer has reasonably requested from the Sellers, or any Target Group Company (in accordance with clause 5.6) has been furnished prior to such date and the Sellers' Representatives (or its legal counsel) has promptly provided any comments contemplated by clause 5.5.3.

The obligation to use all best endeavours shall include the Buyer:

using all reasonable endeavours to obtain as promptly as practicable all authorisations, consents, orders and approvals of, and make all filings with, appropriate Merger Control Authorities that may be or become necessary for the satisfaction of the Regulatory Conditions;

complying at the earliest practicable date with any request for additional information or documentary material received by it or any member of the Buyers Group from any Merger Control Authority for the purpose of satisfying the Regulatory Conditions; and

causing the waiting periods under applicable antitrust, competition or similar Applicable Laws in any Notified Jurisdictions to terminate or expire at the earliest possible date,

Without limiting clauses 5.2, the Buyer shall:

supply, as promptly as practicable, any additional information and documentary material relating to the Buyer and the Buyer Group that may be requested by any Merger Control Authority in any of the Notified Jurisdictions;

promptly inform the Sellers' Representatives of any communication received from, or given by the Buyer to, any Merger Control Authority regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and provide copies of such communications to the Sellers' Representatives, unless doing so would result in a violation of any Applicable Law or where the Buyer is not permitted to do so by the Merger Control Authority; and

permit the Sellers' Representatives, or its legal counsel, to review any draft communication (including filings) to be given by the Buyer to any Merger Control Authority prior to submitting those communications to the Merger Control Authority, provide reasonable time for the Sellers' Representatives to provide comments thereon and to take reasonable account of such comments.

The Sellers shall cause the Target Group to co-operate reasonably with, and to provide such reasonable assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer in order to procure satisfaction of the Regulatory Conditions, including furnishing to the Buyer such information as the Buyer may reasonably require in connection with satisfying the Regulatory Conditions (including the satisfaction of the Buyer's obligations under clause 5.3), except that the Sellers may reasonably designate any competitively sensitive or confidential business material as "outside counsel only" and such materials and information contained therein to be given only to the outside legal counsel of the Buyer and not disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the Buyer unless express permission is obtained in advance from the Seller's Representatives or its legal counsel.

Neither Party shall take any action that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any such authorisations, consents, orders or approvals.

The Buyer shall notify the Sellers' Representatives of the satisfaction of each of the Regulatory Conditions as soon as reasonably practicable after such Regulatory Conditions have been satisfied and in any event within one Business Day of such satisfaction, or as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes aware that the relevant Regulatory Condition is incapable of being satisfied.

The Regulatory Conditions are each for the benefit of each of the Sellers and the Buyer and each such Regulatory Condition may only be waived by written agreement between the Seller's Representatives and the Buyer.

If any Condition:

remains unsatisfied on the Longstop Date and has not been waived on or before that date; or

becomes impossible to satisfy on or before the Longstop Date and has not been waived;

If, between the date of this Agreement and the Completion Date, a Termination Event occurs (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of a Termination Event shall be determined by reference to the provisions of limbs (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of "Termination Event") then the Buyer may at its option terminate this Agreement by notice in writing to the Sellers' Representatives and the provisions of clause 11 shall apply.

On the date which would otherwise be two Business Days prior to completion, the Sellers' Representatives shall notify the Buyer (in writing) whether or not it is aware that any Termination Event has occurred since the date hereof and/or is continuing.

From the date of this Agreement until Completion or termination of this Agreement each of the Management Sellers and each of the Investor Sellers (other than PE1A LP) shall, so far as it is reasonably able by exercising its rights as a Shareholder, director and/or employee of the Target Group (as applicable), procure that each Target Group Company continues to carry on its business in the normal course and in substantially the same manner as its business has been carried on in the 12 month period before the date of this Agreement.

Subject to clause 6.3, each of the Management Sellers and each of the Investor Sellers (other than PE1A LP) shall, so far as it is able by exercising its rights as a Shareholder, director and/or employee of the Target Group (as applicable), procure that:

upon the Buyer giving reasonable notice to the Seller's Representatives the Buyer and such of its officers and employees as are necessary to perform the relevant activities are given access to:

such offsite meetings during normal business hours with the Specified Managers as are reasonably required by the Buyer for the purposes of:

preparing a business plan for the Target Group to be implemented following Completion;

assisting the Buyer in preparing the Target Group to procure, to the extent practicable, full compliance by the Target Group with any compliance and/or reporting requirements which the Buyer is required to comply with under Applicable Law (including all anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, compliance, counterparty acceptance and integrity or similar legislation applicable in any jurisdiction binding upon or applicable the Target Group) (this clause 6.2.1.1 (iii) being the "Compliance Integration");

such documents and information of the Target Group as are reasonably required by the Buyer for the purposes of the Compliance Integration; and

monthly management accounts of the Target Group (in the form in which they are provided to the shareholders of the Company) as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant set of monthly management accounts have been reviewed and approved by the board of directors of the Company, and

the Sellers' Representatives notify to the Buyer (in writing and promptly upon it becoming aware of the same) of any fact, matter or circumstance which constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute:

a breach of the undertakings contained in clause 6.1, clause 6.4 or Schedule 4 (Gap controls);

a breach of the covenant contained in Clause 8.1 (Leakage); and

a material breach any of the Warranties given in clause 9 and set out in Schedule 5, and

The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers shall not be required to procure access in accordance with clause 6.2 where:

such access would be restricted by Applicable Law or binding confidentiality requirements;

such access would, in the reasonable opinion of the Investor Sellers, materially disrupt the day to day business of the Target Group; or

the Investor Sellers reasonably believe that any request for access is made by or on behalf of the Buyer wholly or partly for a purpose other than those set out at clauses 6.2

Without prejudice to the generality of clause 6.1, with effect from the date hereof until Completion or termination of this Agreement, Schedule 4 shall apply.

Completion shall take place at the offices of the Sellers' Solicitors on the date which is five Business Days following satisfaction or waiver of the Conditions.

On Completion the Sellers and the Buyer shall each perform their respective obligations in relation to the sale and purchase of the Shares, the payment of the Trust Bonuses and the repayment of the Bank Indebtedness in accordance with and as set out in Part III and Part IV of Schedule 3.

If Completion does not occur on the Completion Date because either the Buyer or any of the Sellers (in each case, the "breaching party", with the other Party being the "non-breaching party") fails to comply with its respective obligations on Completion, the non-breaching party may by written notice to the breaching party:

defer Completion to a date selected by the non-breaching party being not more than 20 Business Days after the Completion Date which may be later than the Longstop Date (in which case this clause 7.3 shall apply to Completion as so deferred); or

proceed to Completion as far as practicable and in any case without prejudice to its rights under this Agreement; or

if such non-compliance is reasonably considered to be material and has not, if capable of remedy, been remedied within 10 Business Days, give notice to the breaching party that it wishes to terminate this Agreement.

If the non-breaching party terminates this Agreement pursuant to clause 7.3.3:

each Party's further rights and obligations shall cease immediately on termination, save for any rights or obligations which have accrued or become due prior to the date of termination; and

the provisions of clause 11 shall apply.

No later than two Business Days before any Completion Date, the Sellers' Representatives shall notify the Buyer of its calculation (in DKK) of each of (i) the outstanding Bank Indebtedness, and (ii) notification of the Consideration calculated in accordance with clause 3.1.

The Management Sellers will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that Cimbria S.R.L will obtain a fire prevention certificate from the Bologna Fire Brigade for its activities in its plant in Imola as soon as practicable after the date hereof (it being acknowledged by the Buyer that such certificate may not be obtained until after Completion).

Each of the Sellers severally covenants (in respect of itself and its Related Persons only) to the Buyer that in the period from the Locked Box Date up to and including the Completion Date neither it nor any of its Related Persons have received and/or benefited from any amount of Leakage.

In the event of a breach of clause 8.1 (but subject always to clauses 8.3 and 8.4), the relevant Seller severally covenants to pay to the Buyer an amount in cash equal to the amount or value of such Leakage received by it or by any of its Related Persons or in respect of which it or any of its Related Persons have benefitted (a "Locked Box Claim").

Save in the case of fraud, no Seller shall be liable for any claim under this clause 8 unless written notice has been given to the relevant Seller and the Sellers' Representatives on or before the date which is six months following the Completion Date. A claim under this clause 8 shall be the sole remedy available to the Buyer arising from a breach of clause 8.1.

Save in the case of fraud, the liability of each Seller under this clause 8 shall not in any circumstances exceed the amount of Leakage actually received by such Seller or by any of its Related Persons or in respect of which that Seller or any of its Related Persons has benefitted plus any reasonable costs of recovery incurred by the Buyer (including reasonable legal fees).

Any payment by any Seller pursuant to clause 8.1 shall, to the greatest extent permitted by law, by treated by that Seller and the Buyer as a reduction of the amount of Consideration paid to that Seller.

The Warrantors, upon the execution of this Agreement, severally warrant to the Buyer in the terms of the Warranties.

Each Warranty is given subject to the Disclosed Matters and to the limitations in Schedule 6 provided that none of the provisions in Schedule 6 shall apply if any Warrantor fraudulently makes or fraudulently omits to make a disclosure in the Disclosure Letter in such a way as to render any Warranty (when read with the Disclosure Letter) inaccurate, misleading or deceptive. For this purpose and for all purposes under this Agreement, the expression "Disclosed" means fairly disclosed with sufficient detail (including, where a value is attributed to a disclosure contained in the Disclosure Letter, the Warrantors' reasonable estimate of such value as at the date of the Disclosure Letter based on the information actually known to the Warrantors as at such date) to enable the Buyer to make a reasonably informed assessment at the date of such disclosure of the nature and scope of the matter concerned.

The Warranties shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding Completion.

Where any statement is expressly qualified in the Warranties by the expression "to the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Warrantors" or "so far as the Warrantors are aware" or any similar expression, each Warrantor shall be deemed only to have knowledge of anything of which he is actually aware, having also actually made reasonable enquiry of each other Warrantor (and any other constructive or implied knowledge of any Warrantor shall be expressly excluded from such statement or expression).

In applying any Warranty to any Target Group Company, any reference to any legal term for an action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, legal document, legal status, court, official or any legal concept or thing which refers to or relates to a specific jurisdiction shall be deemed to include or refer to what most nearly approximates to that legal term in the relevant jurisdiction and any reference to any statute, regulation, order or other statutory provision of a specific jurisdiction shall be deemed to include what most nearly approximates to that statute, regulation, order or other statutory provision in the relevant jurisdiction.

Save as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement (and without prejudice to the foregoing generality, the limitations on Warranty Claims set out in Schedule 6), the total aggregate liability of each Seller for all claims under this Agreement shall be limited to the amount of Consideration actually received by such Seller.

Each Seller severally warrants (in respect of itself only) to the Buyer that upon the execution of this Agreement and immediately prior to Completion, that:

the number of Shares set opposite its respective name in columns (3), (4) and (6) of Schedule 1 are legally and beneficially owned by such Seller free from all Encumbrances and are fully paid; and

no order has been made, petition presented or meeting convened for the bankruptcy or winding up (as appropriate) of him or it, nor any other action taken in relation to the appointment of a trustee in bankruptcy or an administrator, liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, compulsory manager or any provisional liquidator (or equivalent in any other jurisdiction) and there are no proceedings under any applicable insolvency, reorganisation or similar laws in any relevant jurisdiction and no events have occurred which, under Applicable Law, would justify any such proceedings.

Each Investor Seller (other than PE1ALP) severally warrants to the Buyer that upon the execution of this Agreement and immediately prior to Completion, that:

all shares in XBA Finco ApS as detailed in Schedule 1 Part II are legally and beneficially owned by the Company free from all Encumbrances and are fully paid;

Each Seller severally warrants (in respect of itself only) to the Buyer, upon the execution of this Agreement, that it has full power and authority and has obtained all necessary consents to enter into and perform the obligations expressed to be assumed by it under the Transaction Documents, that the obligations expressed to be assumed by it hereunder are legal, valid and binding and enforceable against it in accordance with their terms and that the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement and each Transaction Document will not:

result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or arrangement to which it is a party or by which it is bound; or

result in a breach of any law or order, judgment or decree of any court or Governmental Authority to which it is a party or by which it is bound.

Each Seller severally warrants (in respect of itself only) to the Buyer that upon Completion and due compliance by the parties with their respective obligations under this Agreement, that:

all sums due to a Target Group Company from that Seller (and that Seller's Related Persons) have been repaid in full; and

he or it (and his or its Related Persons) does not have any claims or rights or causes of action against a Target Group Company other than in respect of:

any Permitted Payments; or

in relation to any Seller or any of their Related Persons who is an employee or officer of any Target Group Company, in respect of accrued but unpaid salary or bonus entitlement, paid holiday entitlement (if any), expenses reasonably incurred in the performance of his duties and any other benefits under his contract of employment or to which he is otherwise entitled, in each case to the extent such contract and arrangements are Disclosed,

The Buyer warrants to the Sellers upon the execution of this Agreement that, apart from the Disclosed Matters, neither it nor any other member of the Buyer Group (excluding the Target Group Companies) is actually aware of any fact, matter, event or circumstance which it is actually aware would constitute a breach of Warranty as at the date of this Agreement. For this purpose, the Buyer and the relevant members of the Buyer's Group shall be deemed only to have knowledge of anything of which one or more of Roger Batkin and David Williams is actually aware (and any constructive or implied knowledge shall be excluded).

The Buyer warrants to the Sellers upon the execution of this Agreement and immediately prior to Completion that it is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the Netherlands and that it has full power and authority and has obtained all necessary consents to enter into and perform the obligations expressed to be assumed by it under the Transaction Documents, that the obligations expressed to be assumed by it

result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or arrangement to which it is a party or by which it is bound; or

result in a breach of any law or order, judgment or decree of any court, on Governmental Authority to which it is a party or by which it is bound.

The Buyer warrants to the Sellers upon execution of this Agreement that:

it is duly established and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of establishment and has been in continuous existence since its establishment;

it is not insolvent or unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123(1) or (2) of the Insolvency Act 1986 of England and Wales or pursuant to the statute in force in the Netherlands which most nearly approximates to the same;

no order has been served on it and no resolution has been passed for the winding-up or dissolution of it; it is not in administration and no steps have been taken to place it in administration (including the filing of any notice of intention to appoint an administrator over it); it is not subject to a company voluntary arrangement and no such arrangement has been proposed nor is it subject to a scheme of arrangement and no such scheme has been proposed; no receiver (whether statutory or contractual) has been appointed to it or any of its assets; it is not in administrative receivership and has not suspended payments on any of its debts, nor entered into any compromises with any or all of its creditors.

Each Warrantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints the Warrantors' Representative to act as his agent (and to the complete exclusion of any rights which the Warrantors may have in such regard) with full authority to:

take all actions in exercise of that Warrantor's rights, and take (on that Warrantor's behalf) all actions contemplated in Schedule 6;

agree any matter referred to or contemplated in Schedule 6 and any matter which is connected with, in anticipation of or related, consequential or ancillary to any such matter; and

do or omit anything, incur any costs, give any consent or approval and agree the form and content of, and approve, sign, execute and/or deliver, any deed, agreement, instrument, consent or other document pursuant to, contemplated by or in relation to Schedule 6,

Insofar as any loss, damage or other liability of any Warrantor is incurred or increased as a result of any act, omission, agreement, approval, consent, deed or decision of the Warrantors' Representative or by any deed, agreement, instrument, consent or other document agreed, approved, signed, executed and/or delivered by the Warrantors' Representative, in each case acting in good faith in the proper execution and discharge of his appointment as Warrantors' Representative hereunder, the Warrantors' Representative shall not be responsible for, nor have any liability to any such Warrantor in relation to, any such loss, damage or other liability or such increased loss, damage or other liability.

Each Warrantor irrevocably agrees that, all rights, acts, omissions, agreements, approvals, consents, deeds and decisions of the Warrantors and/or the Warrantors' Representative under, or contemplated by, Schedule 6 and all deeds, agreements, instruments, consents and other documents agreed, approved, signed, executed and/or delivered by the Warrantors and/or by the Warrantors' Representative under Schedule 6 or contemplated by Schedule 6 as being so agreed, approved, signed, executed and/or delivered may, for all purposes of this Agreement, be regarded as having been validly exercised, done, omitted, agreed, approved of, consented to, decided, signed, executed or delivered if exercised, done, omitted, agreed, approved of, consented to, decided, signed, executed or delivered by the Warrantors' Representative.

Each Warrantor irrevocably agrees that:

any notice or other communication to be given to it is deemed to have been properly given if it is given to the Warrantors' Representative in accordance with clause 19 (whether or not such notice is forwarded to or received by such Warrantor); and

failure by the Warrantors' Representative to notify it of the process will not invalidate the legal action or proceedings concerned.

Each of the Warrantors irrevocably:

undertakes to the Buyer that the Warrantors' Representative has and shall retain the authority to bind it in relation to each matter referred to in clause 9.16 (each a "Relevant Matter");

agrees that the Buyer shall be entitled to rely on any notice or communication in writing provided by the Warrantors' Representative in relation to any Relevant Matter as binding on it;

agrees that any notice or communication in writing by the Warrantors' Representative to the Buyer in relation to any Relevant Matter shall be deemed (unless the context requires otherwise) to be provided by the Warrantors' Representative as agent for all of the Warrantors; and

agrees that any irrecoverable costs and expenses incurred by the Warrantors' Representative in defending any claims under the Warranties will be borne in the proportions set out in column (3) of the table at paragraph 3.2 of Schedule 6.

The Buyer agrees that all acts, omissions, agreements, approvals, consents, deeds and decisions of the Warrantors' Representative under, or contemplated by, Schedule 6 and all deeds, agreements, instruments, consents and other documents jointly agreed, approved, signed, executed and/or delivered by the Warrantors' Representative thereunder or contemplated thereby shall be as valid and effective for all purposes of this Agreement as if the same had been effected by each of the Warrantors, provided always that nothing in this clause shall affect any claim which the Buyer might have against any party to this Agreement or a Warrantors' Representative for breach of this Agreement or otherwise.

The first Warrantors' Representative shall be Søren Overgaard who hereby confirms that he is willing to act as the Warrantors' Representative. In the event that the Warrantors' Representative at the relevant time dies or becomes mentally or physically incapacitated or is otherwise unable or unwilling to act as a Warrantors' Representative, the relevant replacement Warrantors' Representative shall thereupon be such person as a Majority of the Warrantors may appoint or, if they fail to appoint such a replacement Warrantors' Representative, such person as appointed by the Investor Representative at the request of the Buyer (provided that such person is a Warrantor). In this clause, "Majority of the Warrantors" means a majority in number of the Warrantors who are still alive and mentally capable at the time of such appointment and holding a majority in number of the total Shares held by those Warrantors who are still alive and mentally capable at such time.

Each Covenantor severally undertakes to the Buyer that he will not (other than in accordance with the usual and ordinary course of his directorship of and/or his continuing employment by the Company or any other member of the Buyer Group) directly or indirectly:

within the Restricted Territories, at any time during the Restricted Period, engage in, consult to or be otherwise involved with any business which is carried on in competition with any part of the Business;

at any time during the Restricted Period solicit or endeavour to solicit the custom of, or deal or endeavour to deal with, any person who is at the

at any time during the Restricted Period interfere or endeavour to interfere with the continuance of supplies to any Target Group Company (or the terms relating to those supplies) by any person who is at the Completion Date or, at any time during the period of twelve months prior to the Completion Date, was a supplier to any Target Group Company; or

at any time during the Restricted Period solicit or entice away, or endeavour to solicit or entice away, from the Company or any other Target Group Company any Senior Manager whether or not such person would commit a breach of his employment contract by reason of leaving service.

Nothing contained in clause 10.1 shall prevent any Covenantor from:

being the holder or beneficial owner by way of a bona fide personal investment, of any class of securities in any company if such class of securities is listed, or dealt in, on a recognised investment exchange (within the meaning of Part XVIII of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) provided that he neither holds nor is beneficially interested in more than a total of 5 per cent of any single class of the securities in that company; or

placing or procuring the placing of any recruitment advertisement for employees and communicating with or recruiting, employing or otherwise contracting with any person who responds to such an advertisement.

Each of the undertakings contained in clause 10.1 is a separate undertaking by each Covenantor and shall be enforceable by the Buyer (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Buyer Group Company) separately and independently of its right to enforce any one or more of the other covenants contained in clause 10.1. Each Covenantor agrees (having taken independent legal advice) that the undertakings contained in clause 10.1 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate interests of the Buyer and the Company and any other Target Group Company and that these restrictions do not work harshly on him. It is nevertheless agreed that, if any such undertaking is found to be void but would be valid if some part were deleted, then such undertaking shall apply with such deletions as may be necessary to make it valid and enforceable. The parties further agree that, without prejudice to any other remedy which may be available to the Buyer, the Buyer shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in relation to any breach or prospective breach of the undertakings in clause 10.1, it being acknowledged that an award of damages may not be an adequate remedy for such a breach.

For the purposes of clause 10.1:

"directly or indirectly" shall (without limiting the expression) mean any Covenanter acting either alone or jointly with or on behalf of any other

"Restricted Period" shall mean twelve months from the Completion Date; and

"Restricted Territories" shall mean Denmark, Austria, the Czech Republic and Italy and such other geographical area as the relevant Covenantor carries on the Business for the Company or any other Target Group Company as at the Completion Date.

Subject to clause 11.2, this Agreement shall automatically terminate with immediate effect and each Party's rights and obligations shall cease to have force and effect:

if either Party gives valid notice to the other Party pursuant to clause 5.10;

if either Party gives valid notice to the other Party pursuant to clause 7.3.3;

if the Buyer gives valid notice to the Sellers' Representatives pursuant to clause 5.11.

The termination of this Agreement shall not affect:

any rights or obligations which have accrued or become due prior to the date of termination; and

the continued existence and validity of the rights and obligations of the Parties under this clause 11 and clauses 12, 13, 14,, 16, 17, 18 and 19.

Subject to clauses 12.2, 12.3, 12.4 and 12.5, and save in respect of the proper discharge of his duties or obligations to which he might be subject as an employee, director or consultant to any Target Group Company after the date of this Agreement, each Seller severally undertakes to the Buyer in all respects to keep confidential and not at any time disclose or make known in any other way to anyone whomsoever or use for his own or any other person's benefit or to the detriment of any Target Group Company any Confidential Information, provided that any Seller shall be entitled to disclose to its officers, employees, partners, members, agents or advisers such information as may be necessary to enable them to carry out their duties on the basis that the recipient(s) keeps the Confidential Information confidential.

Subject to clauses 12.3 and 12.4, each party (save in the case of clauses 12.2.3 and 12.2.4, which shall apply only as set out in such clauses) undertakes to the others to keep

the provisions, or subject matter, of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

the negotiations relating to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents;

in the case of the Buyer only, the Sellers (other than in relation to the Business), and the businesses carried on by, and the affairs of, the Sellers or any of their connected persons; and

in the case of the Sellers only, the Buyer Group and the businesses carried on by, and the affairs of, the Buyer Group.

Any party may disclose Confidential Information or other information which is otherwise to be treated as confidential under this clause 12 if and to the extent:

that the information becomes generally known (other than through a breach by any party of this clause 12) including any information contained in any announcement made pursuant to clause 13;

required by law or by any competent judicial or regulatory authority or by any recognised investment exchange;

the disclosure is required for the purposes of any judicial proceedings arising out of a breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the disclosure is made to any Taxation Authority in connection with the tax affairs of the disclosing party;

the disclosure is made to professional advisers of any party on terms that such professional advisers undertake to comply with the provisions of clause 12 in respect of such information; or

that the other party or parties have given their prior written consent to the disclosure, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Notwithstanding clauses 12 and 13, each Investor Seller shall be permitted to disclose information regarding any of the matters provided for or referred to in this Agreement other than information referred to in clause 12.2.4 to: (i) its Affiliates (including the Investor Representative) and each of their respective employees; and (ii) investors or potential investors in Funds which any Investor Seller, its Affiliates or the Investor Representative manage or advise, on the basis that the recipient keeps the information confidential.

Notwithstanding clauses 12 and 13, the Buyer shall be permitted to provide information otherwise required to be kept confidential under this Agreement:

to a proposed purchaser of, or investor in, the Buyer's Group or any part of it (or their advisers, agents and representatives) on the basis that the recipient keeps the information confidential;

in a prospectus, listing particulars, admission document or other similar document in connection with the application for admission to trading or to list (or equivalent) of any securities in any member of the Buyer's Group on any recognised stock exchange; and

to any provider of finance or potential provider of finance to any member of the Buyer's Group (or to their advisers, agents and representatives) or to a security trustee or agent acting on behalf of one or several banks or other financial institutions which have entered into, or may enter into, any financing, hedging or loan agreements with any members of the Buyer's Group, in each case on the basis that the recipient agrees to keep such information confidential.

Subject to clauses 12.3, 12.4, 12.5 and 13.2, no party shall without the consent of the Buyer and the Sellers' Representatives (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld) issue any press release or publish any circular to shareholders or any other document or make any public statement or otherwise make any disclosure to any person who is not a party to this Agreement relating to any of the matters provided for or referred to in this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any ancillary matter. This clause shall not prohibit any announcement or disclosure required by law or by any competent judicial or regulatory authority or Taxation Authority or by any stock exchange or recognised investment exchange (in which case the parties shall co-operate, in good faith, in order to agree the content of any such announcement so far as practicable prior to it being made).

Nothing in clause 12.2 or 13.1 shall:

restrict the Buyer or any Target Group Company from informing customers or suppliers of the fact of (but not any term of or any other detail relating to) the acquisition of the Target Group by the Buyer, after Completion; or

prohibit the release, by any of the parties, of the Agreed Announcements following the execution hereof.

As soon as reasonably practicable following Completion, the Buyer shall procure that a D&O run-off insurance policy (the "Run-off Policy") is placed by the Target Group providing a minimum of six years coverage from the Completion Date in relation to the Outgoing Directors in amounts which are not less than, and otherwise on terms which are no less favourable to the D&O insurance cover maintained by the Target Group immediately before Completion. The Buyer shall provide the Outgoing Directors with a copy of the insurance terms and conditions and proof of the premium payment. The Buyer undertakes that it shall not take or omit to take (and shall procure that each Buyer Group Company shall not take or omit to take) any action which has the effect of invalidating such insurance policy provided that the Buyer can replace the Run Off Policy with an alternative D&O run off insurance policy on substantially the same terms.

The Buyer shall (and shall ensure that each Target Group Company shall), from and after Completion and to the fullest extent permitted in accordance with Applicable Law, waive, release, and discharge the Outgoing Directors from any and all claims (other than claims for fraud or criminal conduct), demands, proceedings, causes of action, orders, obligations and liabilities arising out of their capacity as a director of any Target Group Company and, solely in such capacity, any cause or event occurring on or before Completion (each a "Pre-Closing Event") which each Target Group Company has or may at any time have had against any Outgoing Director. The Buyer shall ensure that each Target Group Company shall not, directly or indirectly, assert any claim or demand, or commence, institute or cause to be commenced, any proceedings of any kind relating to any Pre-Closing Event against any Outgoing Director.

The provisions of clauses 15.1 and 15.2 are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that the Outgoing Directors may have at law, by contract or otherwise.

The Sellers shall not (if a claim is made against any of them in connection with the sale of the Shares to the Buyer) make any claim against any Target Group Company or against any director, employee, agent or officer of any Target Group Company on whom any of the Sellers may have relied before agreeing to any term of the Transaction Documents or authorising any statement in the Disclosure Letter. The Sellers acknowledge that they have no rights to make any such claim. This shall not prevent any Seller from claiming against any other Seller under any right of contribution or indemnity to which he may be entitled. The rights of each Target Group Company and any director, employee, agent or officer of any Group Company under this Clause are subject to the provisions of clause 18.16.

The Sellers shall procure that as soon as reasonably practicable after the Completion Date and in any event within 30 days after the Completion Date any of their Affiliates or Related Persons whose name includes the word “Cimbria” change their name to a name which does not include the word “Cimbria” or any other words which, in the reasonable opinion of the Buyer, are confusingly similar.

Subject to clause 15.7, the Sellers shall procure that, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Completion Date and in any event within 30 days after the Completion Date:

other than in respect of any Management Seller, it and each of their Affiliates or Related Persons ceases to use or display (including on any of their properties and assets) any trade or service name or mark, business name, logo, design, symbol, get-up, trade dress or domain name that consists of or includes the words “Cimbria" or any other words which, in the reasonable opinion of the Buyer, are confusingly similar (together, the “Target Company IPR”); and

any goods, stock, products, product literature, product labels, packaging, signage, stationery or other marketing, promotional, advertising or public relations materials bearing any Target Company IPR and held by the Sellers other than the Management Sellers (if any) are, at the Buyer’s option, either delivered to the Buyer or destroyed, and the each of the Sellers shall certify in writing to the Buyer that they has done so.

Clause 15.6 shall not apply to any corporate records retained by any of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or Related Persons which bear any Target Company IPR or any other assets or documents which are in the possession of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or Related Persons for record keeping or other non-trading purposes.

This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties including all non-contractual obligations arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

The parties irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales in respect of any claim, dispute or difference arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and/or any non-contractual obligation arising in connection with this Agreement, provided that nothing contained in this clause shall be taken to have limited the right of the Seller to proceed in the courts of any other competent jurisdiction.

The Trustee Seller is entering into this Agreement as trustee of the EBT.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the aggregate liability of the Trustee Seller for all claims under this Agreement shall be limited to the lower of (i) the Consideration payable to it in respect of the EBT Shares, less the amount of the Trust Loan; and (ii) the value of the aggregate capital assets of the EBT at the time when payment is due to be made by the Trustee Seller in respect of such claim.

This Agreement (together with the other Transaction Documents) contains the entire and only agreement and understanding of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings or arrangements (both oral and written) relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and any such other document.

Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that:

it is not entering into this Agreement on the basis of, and is not relying and has not relied on, any statement or representation (whether negligent or innocent) or warranty or other provision (in any case whether oral, written, express or implied) made, given or agreed to by any person (whether a party to this Agreement or not) except those expressly repeated or referred to in this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter and the only remedy or remedies available to the Buyer in respect of any misrepresentation or untrue statement made to it shall be a claim for breach of contract under this Agreement; and

this clause 18.2 shall not apply to any statement, representation or warranty made fraudulently or to any provision of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Warranties) which was induced by fraud for which the remedies shall be all those available under the law governing this Agreement regardless of the other terms of this Agreement.

The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the express terms of this Agreement are in lieu of all warranties, conditions, terms, undertakings and obligations implied by statute, common law or otherwise all of which are hereby excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.

This Agreement shall not be construed as creating any partnership or agency relationship between any of the parties.

No variation of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing signed by or on behalf of all the parties and expressed to be such a variation.

No waiver by any party of any requirement of this Agreement, or of any remedy or right under this Agreement, shall have effect unless given in writing and signed by such party.

Subject to clauses 18.8, 18.9 and 18.10 no party shall be entitled to assign, transfer or create any trust in respect of the benefit or burden of any provision of this Agreement (or other Transaction Document) without the prior written consent of the Buyer (in the case of an assignment by any of the Sellers) or the Sellers' Representatives (in the case of an assignment by the Buyer).

All or any of the Buyer's rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in respect of the Warranties) may be assigned by the Buyer to any other member of the Buyer Group (or by any such member to or in favour of any other member of the Buyer Group) provided that:

prior to such assignee leaving the Buyer Group, such rights are assigned or transferred to, or made the subject of a trust in favour of, another member of the Buyer Group; and

in the event that such assignment occurs, the liability of the Sellers or Warrantors under this Agreement shall be no greater than it would have been had such assignment not occurred.

The Buyer may upon written notice to the Sellers' Representatives (a "Substitution Notice") transfer its rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement (in whole or in part) to, and it may be enforced by, any member or members of the Buyer's Group (a "Substitute Buyer"). The Substitution Notice shall include: (a) the name and jurisdiction of the Substitute Buyer, and (b) an acknowledgement by the Substitute Buyer in accordance with the following sentence: the Substitute Buyer shall be deemed a “Buyer" for purposes of this Agreement in connection with the acquisition of the Shares (and any reference to “Buyer” in this Agreement shall be deemed to include reference to the Substitute Buyer) and such Substitute Buyer shall be assigned the rights and shall assume the obligations under this Agreement necessary in connection with such substitution provided that, following such substitution:

AGCO International Holdings B.V. shall be jointly and severally liable with the Substitute Buyer to the Sellers for all such rights and obligations so assigned or assumed by such Substitute Buyer;

AGCO International Holdings B.V shall cause the Substitute Buyer to appoint AGCO International Holdings B.V as its agent in connection with the exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement;

no such substitution shall relieve AGCO International Holdings B.V of its obligations under this Agreement;

if the Substitute Buyer ceases to be a member of the Buyer's Group, this Agreement and the rights under it shall automatically transfer back to AGCO International Holdings B.V immediately prior to such cessation; and

the liability of the Sellers are not increased in any way.

This Agreement and the benefits arising under it may be assigned or charged in whole or in part by the Buyer to its financial lenders or banks or any member of their groups (including Funds) or any security agent or trustee acting on their behalf as security for any financing or refinancing in respect of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement (including any additional facilities and hedging made available in connection with such financing or refinancing) and such benefit as may further be assigned to any other financial institution by way of security for the borrowings of the Buyer resulting from any refinancing of the borrowings made under such financing or refinancing or to any person entitled to enforce such security or to any transferee under a valid enforcement of such security provided that any such assignment permitted pursuant to this clause 18.9 shall not increase the liability of any of the Sellers or Warrantors beyond that which the relevant party would otherwise have had pursuant to this Agreement.

As soon as practicable after any assignment in accordance with clause 18.8, 18.9 or 18.10, the Buyer will give written notice of the assignment to the Sellers' Representatives.

The provisions of this Agreement, insofar as the same shall not have been fully performed at Completion, shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding Completion.

This Agreement may be executed as two or more counterparts and execution by each of the parties of any one of such counterparts will constitute due execution of this Agreement.

Each party shall, and shall use all reasonable endeavours to procure that any necessary third party shall, do and execute and perform all such further deeds, documents, assurances, acts and things as may reasonably be required to give effect to this Agreement including (in the case of the Sellers) vesting in the Buyer the legal and beneficial title to the Shares free from any Encumbrance.

The Buyer acknowledges and irrevocably agrees that, save in respect of its right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with clause 11, it will not be entitled to rescind, terminate or repudiate this Agreement for any reason.

Subject to clause 18.18, any Target Group Company and/or any of their respective officers, employees, agents or advisers (to the extent such clauses benefit those third parties) may enforce the terms of clauses 10 and 15.4 pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

Except as provided in clauses 10 and 18.16, the parties do not intend this Agreement or any part of it to be enforceable pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 by any person who is not a party to this Agreement, but this shall not affect any other right or remedy of a third party that is available or exists apart from that Act.

Notwithstanding clause 18.16, the parties may agree to vary or terminate this Agreement (or release or compromise any liability under this Agreement) in accordance with clause 18.5 without the consent of the persons mentioned in clause 18.16.

Except where this Agreement provides otherwise, obligations, covenants, warranties, representations and undertakings expressed to be assumed or given by two or more persons shall in each case be construed as if expressed to be given severally and not jointly or jointly and severally.

This Agreement shall be binding on the Buyer's assigns and successors in title.

The Buyer undertakes to the Sellers that it shall, and shall procure that each member of the Buyer's Group shall, provided that the following provisions comply with any record keeping policies of the Buyer Group in place from time to time:

preserve for a period of at least seven years from Completion all books, records and documents of or relating to the Taxation of each Target Group Company as at Completion ("Historic Tax Records"); and

subject to the relevant Sellers reimbursing the Buyer its reasonable costs and expenses in providing such information and assistance permit and allow, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, any Seller (or the employees, agents and professional advisers of any Seller or, in the case of a Seller which is a partnership, the employees, agents and professional advisers of the manager of such partnership) access to such

Any payment made by or due from the Sellers under, or pursuant to the terms of, this Agreement shall be free and clear of all Taxation whatsoever save only for any deductions or withholdings required by law.

If any deductions or withholdings are required, such further sums as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received by the Buyer, the relevant Target Group Company or other person (as the case may be) will equal the full amount which would have been received under the relevant provisions of this Agreement in the absence of any such deductions or withholdings.

Any notice, consent, request, demand, approval or other communication to be given or made under or in connection with this Agreement (each a "Notice" for the purposes of this clause) shall be in English, in writing and signed by or on behalf of the person giving it.
