All such Consideration shall be paid in cash as contemplated by this Clause 3 and Part B of Schedule 3.

Where any payment is made by any Seller in satisfaction of a liability arising under any Transaction Document (including pursuant to Clause 4, Clause 7 or Clause 9), it shall also be an adjustment (by way of reduction) to the Consideration.

The Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to the Purchaser, no later than:

ten Business Days prior to the Completion Date, its good faith calculation of the Interim Amount presented substantially in the form set forth on Schedule 8 (the “Estimated Interim Amount”); and

four Business Days prior to the Completion Date, its good faith calculation of any Leakage (including (a) any amount exceeding the amount of Permitted Leakage set forth under the definition of Permitted Leakage, and (b) the amount due on Completion with respect to the MIP Cash Plan, together with all costs and expenses of the Group in connection therewith) (“Notified Leakages”), setting out in reasonable detail the nature of the Notified Leakages and the calculation of the amount thereof.

No later than ninety (90) days after the Completion Date, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative a written statement (the “Draft Interim Amount Statement”), consisting of its calculation, in reasonable detail, of the Interim Amount.

The Sellers’ Representative shall notify the Purchaser within thirty days of its receipt of the Draft Interim Amount Statement whether it disagrees with the Draft Interim Amount Statement, which notice (the “Notice of Disagreement”) shall set out in reasonable detail: (a) each item of the Draft Interim Amount Statement with which the Sellers’ Representative disagrees (the “Disputed Items”); (b) the reasons for the disagreement; and (c) the proposed adjusted value for each Disputed Item.

If the Sellers’ Representative agrees with the Draft Interim Amount Statement or fails to deliver its Notice of Disagreement within the fourteen day period referred to in Clause 3.6, such Draft Interim Amount Statement shall be final and binding upon the Parties and constitute the “Final Interim Amount Statement”, and the Interim Amount set forth therein shall constitute the “Final Interim Amount” for all purposes of this Agreement. If the Sellers’ Representative delivers its Notice of Disagreement within the ten Business Day period referred to in Clause 3.6, then the Sellers’ Representative and the Purchaser shall seek in good faith to resolve the Disputed Items within 20 Business Days beginning on the date the Sellers’ Representative receives the Notice of Disagreement (the “Resolution Period”). If the Sellers’ Representative and the Purchaser reach written agreement with respect to any Disputed Items, the Parties shall revise the Draft Interim Amount Statement to reflect such agreement, and if

such agreement has been reached in respect of all Disputed Items, that revised Draft Interim Amount Statement shall constitute the Final Interim Amount Statement.

If the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to resolve all of the Disputed Items during the Resolution Period, then the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall jointly engage and submit the unresolved Disputed Items (the “Unresolved Items”) to an internationally recognised accounting firm as the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative may agree, or, failing such agreement or failing such firm accepting such appointment within 10 Business Days, to such internationally recognised accounting firm in London as the President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales may, on the application of either the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser, nominate (the “Independent Accountant”).

In any reference to the Independent Accountant in accordance with Clause 3.8:

the Independent Accountant shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator;

the Independent Accountant shall be directed to determine, by reference to the written submissions of the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative and the terms of this Agreement, only the Unresolved Items still in dispute and shall be limited to those adjustments, if any, required to be made for the Draft Interim Amount Statement to comply with the provisions of this Agreement;

in no event shall the Independent Accountant’s determination of each of the Unresolved Items be for an amount that is outside the range of the Purchaser’s and the Sellers’ Representative’s disagreement for that Unresolved Item;

the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall use all reasonable endeavours to cause the Independent Accountant to issue its written determination regarding the Unresolved Items within 20 Business Days after such items are submitted to the Independent Accountant for review;

the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall use all reasonable endeavours to promptly, and in any event within 10 days, furnish to the Independent Accountant detailed supporting documentation and their written position regarding each Unresolved Item and such other work papers and other documents and information pertaining to the Unresolved Items as the Independent Accountant may reasonably request;

the determination of the Independent Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative absent

manifest error, and the Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative shall revise the Draft Interim Amount Statement to reflect such determination upon receipt thereof and that revised Draft Interim Amount Statement shall constitute the Final Interim Amount Statement; and

the fees, expenses and costs of the Independent Accountant shall be borne pro rata as between the Sellers’ Representative, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, in proportion to the final allocation made by such Independent Accountant of the Unresolved Items weighted in relation to the claims made by the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser, such that the prevailing party pays the lesser proportion of such fees, expenses and costs. For example, if the Sellers’ Representative claims that the appropriate adjustments with respect to the Unresolved Items are $1,000.00 greater than the amount determined by Purchaser (and such amount is the aggregate amount of the Unresolved Items) and if the Independent Accountant ultimately resolves the Unresolved Items by awarding to the Sellers $300.00 of the $1,000.00 contested, then the fees, expenses and costs of the Independent Accountant will be allocated 30% (i.e., 300 divided by 1,000) to the Purchaser and 70% (i.e., 700 divided by 1,000) to the Sellers.

Each Party shall use all reasonable endeavours to provide promptly to the other Party reasonable access to employees, documents and information as such other Party shall reasonably request in connection with its review of the Draft Interim Amount Statement or the Notice of Disagreement, as the case may be, including all working papers of the accountants who compiled or reviewed such statements or notices (subject to the Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative and their respective accountants entering into any undertakings required by the other Party’s accountants in connection herewith), and shall otherwise cooperate in good faith with such other Party to arrive at a final determination of the Final Interim Amount Statement.

Leakage

Each Seller undertakes to the Purchaser that in the period from (and excluding) the Locked Box Date up to (and including) the Completion Date there has been no Leakage and no arrangement or agreement or offer has been made or entered into that has resulted or will result in any Leakage.

In the event of any Leakage which is prohibited by Clause 4.1 (but subject always to Clause 4.3), (x) if such Leakage is identified prior to the Completion Date, the Sellers’ Representative shall notify the Purchaser of such Leakage in accordance with Clause 3.4(b), and such amount shall be deducted from the Consideration; or (y) if such Leakage is identified following the Completion Date, subject to the limitations on each Sellers’ liability set out in this Clause 4 and Schedule 5, each Seller covenants to the Purchaser to pay or procure payment to the Purchaser (or to its order) on written demand by the Purchaser an amount in cash equal to the aggregate of the amount or value of such Leakage, provided that, in each case:

any Leakage may not be required to be repaid more than once to the Purchaser;

to the extent the Leakage concerns an item which is not the payment of a sum of monies, the payment shall be equal to the amount which places the relevant Group Company in the same position as if such Leakage had not occurred;

to the extent any Leakage is received or made in favour of a given Seller or its Related Persons, the payment obligation shall be entirely borne by such Seller and such Seller shall also be liable for the full amount of any Tax (including amounts in respect of VAT and/or employer’s social security contributions) arising on or with respect to such Leakage (in accordance with the closing language of such defined term) regardless of the person on whom that Tax is primarily chargeable; and

subject to Clause 4.2(c), to the extent the Leakage is received by a third party and not by a Seller or a member of such Seller’s Group or Related Person, the repayment obligation shall be borne by all Sellers, in proportion of the Relevant Proportion of each Seller.

No Seller shall be liable for any claim under this Clause 4 unless written notice has been given to the Sellers’ Representative on or before the date which is the earlier of: (a) 9 months following the Completion Date and (b) 2 months post completion of the audit of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 (such date, the “Cut-Off Date”); provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Longstop Date is extended to the Extended Longstop Date pursuant to Clause 6.10, then the “Cut-Off Date” will be the date which is 9 months following the Completion Date.

Save in the case of fraud, the aggregate liability of each Seller for breach of this Clause 4 shall not in any circumstances exceed the Consideration received by such Seller. For the purposes of this Clause 4.4, any deemed adjustment (by way of reduction) to the Consideration pursuant to paragraph 20 of Schedule 5 shall be disregarded in determining the Consideration received by such Seller.

The Sellers undertake to notify the Purchaser in writing as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of anything that would constitute, or would reasonably be expected to constitute, the occurrence of any Leakage.

Local Agreements

The Sellers shall procure that each relevant Group Company enters into the relevant Local Agreement, and the Purchaser shall enter into the relevant Local Agreement, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date hereof and in any event prior to the regulatory filings contemplated by Clause 6.5, provided that the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby shall be subject to the occurrence of, and consummated concurrently with, Completion. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the relevant Local Agreement will be amended, as applicable, in connection with and to reflect any adjustments to the Consideration hereunder or under any other Transaction Document. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Clauses 6.10 or 6.11 or if Completion otherwise does not occur, the Local Agreements shall not be completed and the Parties shall waive all rights and release all obligations under the Local Agreements, or procure such waiver and release from the respective parties to the Local Agreements.

To the extent that the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is or are inconsistent with or additional to the provisions of a Local Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document shall prevail and the Sellers and the Purchaser shall procure that the provisions of the relevant Local Agreement are adjusted to the extent necessary to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document subject to being compliant with any relevant law in the relevant jurisdiction and/or that the parties thereto comply to the extent lawful with the provisions of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document as though they were bound by such provisions in place

not waived in accordance with Clause 6.9, in each case, on or before the Extended Longstop Date,

Unless and until the Purchaser exercises its right pursuant to the last sentence of Clause 8.1 to defer the Completion Date (in which case, for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall cease to have any right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Clause 6.12), the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement prior to Completion by giving not less than 20 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Sellers if:

a Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred following the date of this Agreement, setting out in reasonable detail such Material Adverse Effect; provided that this Agreement shall not terminate and the Parties shall perform their obligations hereunder if the consequences of such Material Adverse Effect are addressed by the Sellers or the Group, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Purchaser, prior to the end of such 20 Business Day period; or

any applicable law or Governmental Authority or other authority with relevant powers to which any Party is subject or submits, whether or not the requirement has the force of law, imposes or subjects (or would impose or subject after Completion) the Purchaser or any member of the Group to any Listing Obligation or any Local Shareholder Requirement.

The Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) or the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement prior to Completion by giving prior written notice to (in the case of the Sellers’ Representative) the Purchaser or (in the case of the Purchaser) to the Sellers’ Representative if the Uganda Revenue Authority withdraws or makes a material or adverse amendment to such private ruling as is mentioned in Clause 6.1(e) after such private ruling had been obtained.

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Clauses 6.11, 6.12 or 6.13 all provisions of this Agreement shall cease to have effect except that:

this Clause 6.14 and Clauses 1, 5, 8.6 and 12 to 27 (inclusive) shall continue to apply following such termination; and

such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights and obligations already arisen in connection with or by virtue of any breach of this Agreement and liability already accrued (subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement) prior to the termination of this Agreement.

If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, from and after such termination until the date that is eighteen months following such termination, the Purchaser shall not, and shall procure that any Related Person shall not, without the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative, solicit the employment of or hire of any director, officer, or employee of any Group Company (each a “Restricted Person”), whether directly or indirectly, nor enter into any employment, consultancy or service relationship with any Restricted Person, provided that the foregoing restrictions shall not prevent the Purchaser or the relevant Related Person from publishing any recruitment advertisement in any local or national newspaper or other publication or on any website.

In this Clause 11, unless clearly inconsistent with the context, words and phrases defined hereunder shall bear the meanings assigned to them in this Clause 11.1:

“Land Rights” shall mean any ownership, lease, sublease, licence, development, usufruct, servitude, management use, marketing right, occupancy, agency or other rights (including economic rights such as rights to rental income) of any nature, to or in respect of any immovable property or improvements to immovable property in the Territory;

“Restraint Period” shall mean a period of eighteen months from Completion; and

“Territory” shall mean the countries of Ghana, Kenya, Burkina Faso, Niger, Uganda and South Africa.

CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited hereby undertakes in favour of the Purchaser (on behalf of itself and as agent and trustee for all other members of the Purchaser’s Group), in order to protect the value of the Shares, that it will not, and will procure that none of its Related Persons shall, either alone or jointly, during any part of the Restraint Period:

whether as proprietor, partner, shareholder, member, trustee, beneficiary, employee, consultant, contractor, financier, director, officer, agent, representative or otherwise, and whether for reward or not, directly or indirectly:

carry on in the Territory any undertaking or activity which is competitive with the business of the Group Companies as it existed on Completion;

have a debt or equity interest or holding in any company, close corporation, firm, undertaking or concern operating in any part of the Territory which is competitive with the business of the Group Companies as it existed on Completion; or

solicit or agree to acquire, negotiate with a view to acquiring, hold or exercise any Land Rights relating to any tower sites in the Territory (foregoing sub-Clauses (a) to (c) (inclusive), referred to hereinafter as a “Competitive Activity”); or

solicit the employment of or hire any one or more of the employees of the Group as at Completion, whether directly or indirectly, nor enter into any employment, consultancy or service relationship with any such person.

The restrictions in Clause 11.2(a) shall not:

prevent CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or any Related Person from holding shares or debentures in a listed company which confer not more than 5% of the votes which could normally be cast at a general meeting of that company;

in the case of the restrictions in clauses 11.2(a) and 11.2(b), apply (or as the case may be shall cease to apply) to the extent that CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person after Completion acquires any company or group of companies, or its business, with headquarters outside the Territory (“Acquired Group”) and, as a result of that acquisition, acquires a company or business which carries on a Competitive Activity referred to in Clauses 11.2(a) or 11.2(b) (“Competing Entity”), provided that such Competing Entity represents less than 10% of the gross asset value of the Acquired Group. CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person shall be required to use all reasonable endeavours to divest such Competing Entity to the extent engaging in such a Competitive Activity within twelve (12) months after consummation of such acquisition and to the extent that CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person is unable to do so within such 12-month period, the Purchaser shall have the option expiring one calendar month from the expiry of such 12-month period to acquire such Competing Entity at its fair market value as determined by independent accountants mutually acceptable to CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand;

apply (or as the case may be shall cease to apply) to the extent that CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person after Completion is acquired by any company or business or merges with any company or business in a bona fide arms-length transaction with an unaffiliated third party, which carries on a Competitive Activity or which subsequently elects to directly or indirectly carry on such a Competitive Activity; or

prevent CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person from carrying on the business or range of business carried on by such person at Completion outside the Territory.

The restrictions in Clause 11.2(b) shall not prevent CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited or the relevant Related Person from publishing any recruitment advertisement in any local or national newspaper or other publication or on any website.

Clause 11.2 may be enforced by the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group against the Sellers under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

No Seller shall use the proceeds received by it under this Agreement in breach of any Sanctions (as defined in the Warranty Deed), including by directly transferring such proceeds to any person who is the subject of Sanctions.

CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited agrees that the restrictions contained in this Clause 11 are no greater than is reasonable and necessary for the protection of the interests of the Purchaser and the Group, but if any such restriction shall be held to be void, but would be valid if deleted in part or reduced in application, such restriction shall apply with such deletion or modification as may be necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

Confidential Information

Subject to Clause 12.2 and Clause 13, each Seller undertakes to the Purchaser, acting for itself and as agent and trustee for the Purchaser’s Group, and the Purchaser undertakes to each of the Sellers, that the Sellers or the Purchaser (and the Purchaser’s Group) (as the case may be) shall treat as confidential all information:

received or obtained as a result of entering into or performing this Agreement which relates to:

the other Parties and their respective Affiliates (the “Disclosing Party”);

the provisions or the subject matter of this Agreement or any Transaction Document and any claim or potential claim thereunder;

the negotiations relating to this Agreement or any Transaction Documents; and

in the case of the Sellers, relating to the Group that is not publicly available.

Clause 12.1 does not apply to disclosure of any such information as is referred to in that Clause by a Party:

which is required to be disclosed by applicable law, by a rule of a listing authority or stock exchange to which any Party (or member of the Purchaser’s Group) is subject or submits or by a Governmental Authority or other authority with relevant powers to which any Party is subject or submits, whether or not the requirement has the force of law provided that the disclosure shall, if permitted by law and so far as is practicable, be made after consultation with, in the case of disclosure by the Purchaser or the Company, the Sellers’ Representative or, in the case of disclosure by any Seller, the Purchaser and after taking into account the reasonable requirements of the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser (as applicable) as to its timing, content and manner of making or despatch;

to an adviser for the purpose of advising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Transaction Document or any future transactions relating to the Group or any of its assets provided that such disclosure is necessary for these purposes and is on the basis the Party disclosing such information procures that such adviser keeps such information confidential on the same terms which apply to the Disclosing Party under this Agreement;

to a director, officer, employee or auditor of the Purchaser or a Group Company whose function requires him to have the relevant confidential information and is on the basis the Party disclosing such information procures that such adviser keeps such information confidential on the same terms which apply to the Disclosing Party under this Agreement;

to the extent such Party is an investment fund or which holds or held Shares on behalf of such a fund to: (i) the manager of, adviser to, participant or investor or prospective participant or investor in, that fund, and (ii) to the manager of, adviser to, participant or investor or prospective participant or investor in a fund which has the same manager or adviser as a fund to which Clause 12.2(d)(i) applies, in each case on the basis the Party disclosing such information procures that such receiving person keeps such information confidential on the same terms which apply to the Disclosing Party under this Agreement;

which is required to be made to a Tax Authority in connection with the Tax affairs of a Party or any of its Affiliates, provided, that, to the extent

reasonably practicable, advance written notice of such disclosure shall be provided to the other Parties;

which is required to enable any person to enforce its rights under this Agreement including to defend itself against any claim thereunder or under any other Transaction Document or for the purpose of any judicial proceedings;

in the case of the Purchaser, to any potential third party debt financier, being an internationally recognised bank or other financial institution, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or

to the extent that the information has been made public by, or with the consent of, the Disclosing Party or is in or comes into the public domain otherwise than as a result of a breach of any undertaking or duty of confidentiality by any Party.

The restrictions contained in this Clause 12 shall continue to apply after Completion, save that the Purchaser shall not be bound by any obligation of confidentiality under this Clause 12, any confidentiality agreement entered into by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise following Completion in respect of information relating to the Group.

For the avoidance of doubt, but without prejudice to any obligations under this Clause 11, the Purchaser acknowledges that Affiliates of each of the Sellers are investment advisers which advise their respective clients with respect to investments in entities engaged in industries or businesses similar to those conducted by the Group and that certain confidential information obtained by the Sellers or their Affiliates prior to the Completion Date may influence such investment advisers’ views on such other investments, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Announcements

Subject to Clause 7.15 and Clause 13.2, no Party may, before or after Completion, make or issue a public announcement, communication or circular (each, an “announcement”) concerning the existence of, or the transactions referred to in, this Agreement unless it has first obtained the written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (in the case of a proposed announcement by the Purchaser) or the Purchaser (in the case of a proposed announcement by a Seller or the Sellers’ Representative), which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Clause 13.1 shall not apply to a public announcement, communication or circular required by applicable law, by a rule of a listing authority or stock exchange to which any Party (or the Purchaser’s Group) is subject or submits, or by a Governmental Authority or other authority with relevant powers to which any party is subject or submits, whether or not the requirement has the force of law, provided that the public announcement, communication or circular shall, if permitted by law and so far as is practicable, be made or issued after consultation with, in the case of one to be made or issued by the Purchaser, the Sellers’ Representative or, in the case of one to be made or issued by the Sellers, the Purchaser and after taking into account the reasonable requirements and other comments of the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser (as applicable) as to its timing, content and manner of despatch.

The restrictions contained in Clause 13.1 and Clause 13.2 shall continue to apply after the termination of this Agreement.

Guarantee by the Guarantor

In consideration of the entry by each Seller into this Agreement, the Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably:

guarantees to the Sellers the payment when due of all amounts payable by the Purchaser under or pursuant to this Agreement;

undertakes to ensure that the Purchaser will perform when due all of its payment obligations, undertakings, warranties and indemnities under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents;

agrees that if and each time that the Purchaser fails to make any payment when it is due under or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Guarantor shall forthwith upon demand (without requiring any Seller first to take steps against the Purchaser or any other person) pay that amount to the Sellers as if it were the principal obligor in respect of that amount (subject to all applicable defences of the Purchaser in connection therewith); and

agrees as principal debtor and primary obligor to indemnify each Seller against all Losses sustained by it flowing from any non-payment or other failure by the Purchaser to comply with its obligations under or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

The Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 shall not be affected, impaired, reduced or released by any matter or thing which but for this provision might operate to affect or prejudice those obligations, including:

any time or indulgence granted to, or composition with, the Purchaser or any other person;

the taking, variation, renewal or release of, or neglect to perfect or enforce this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any right, guarantee, remedy or security from or against, the Purchaser or any other person;

any variation or change to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

any insolvency or similar proceedings; or

any illegality, unenforceability or invalidity of any obligation of the Purchaser, so that this Agreement shall be construed as if there were no such illegality, unenforceability or invalidity.

Subject to Clause 14.8, until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been irrevocably paid in full the Guarantor shall not as a result of this Agreement or any payment or performance under this Agreement be subrogated to any right or security of any Seller or claim or prove in competition with any Seller against the Purchaser or any other person or claim any right of contribution, set-off or indemnity.

The Guarantor will not take or hold any security from the Purchaser in respect of this Agreement and any such security which is held in breach of this provision will be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Sellers.

The Guarantor must reimburse the Sellers for all legal and other costs (including irrecoverable VAT) incurred by the Sellers in connection with the enforcement of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14.

Subject to Clause 14.8, the Guarantor’s guarantee is to be a continuing guarantee and accordingly is to remain in force until all the guaranteed obligations shall have been performed or satisfied. This guarantee is in addition to and without prejudice to and not in substitution for any rights or security which the Seller may now or hereafter have or hold for the performance and observance of the guaranteed obligations.

As a separate and independent stipulation the Guarantor agrees that any of the guaranteed obligations (including any moneys payable) which may not be enforceable against or recoverable from the Purchaser by reason of any legal limitation, disability or incapacity on or of the Purchaser or the dissolution, amalgamation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the Purchaser or any other fact or circumstance (other than any limitation imposed by this Agreement) shall nevertheless be enforceable against and recoverable from the Guarantor as though the same had been incurred by the Guarantor and the Guarantor were the sole or principal obligor in respect thereof and shall be performed or paid by the Guarantor on demand.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect from and after the earlier of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and Completion, provided that to the extent that any payment shall be due by the Purchaser to any Seller pursuant to or under this Agreement, the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 shall continue in full force and effect in respect of such payment obligation of the Purchaser until the date on which such payment has been made in full in accordance with the applicable terms of this Agreement and in full satisfaction of the Purchaser’s obligations in relation thereto, at which point the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

Sellers’ Representative

Subject to Clause 15.2, each Seller hereby appoints CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited as its representative (the “Sellers’ Representative”). The Sellers’ Representative shall have full authority to execute and deliver the Escrow Agreement and other Transaction Documents, to give and receive notices and communications, to receive payments under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to disburse such payments to the Sellers, to authorise release of funds from the Relevant Claim Escrow Account in satisfaction of Relevant Claims by the Purchaser, to authorise release of funds from the Interim Amount Escrow Account, to object to release of funds from either the Relevant Claim Escrow Account or the Interim Amount Escrow Account to the Purchaser, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of arbitrators or courts with respect to such Relevant Claims or matters under the other Transaction Documents, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing; provided that (a) the relevant Seller’s prior written consent to any such action to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative shall be required in relation to a Relevant Claim against the relevant Seller only and (b) the Sellers’ Representative may not proportionately disadvantage a Seller (based on the pro rata portion of the Consideration received by the Sellers) without such Seller’s prior written consent.

Any person serving as Sellers’ Representative hereunder may resign at any time upon giving at least thirty days’ written notice to the Parties. Upon such resignation and with the written approval of the Purchaser (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided that such approval shall not be required from the Purchaser if the successor entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CIPEF ETW (Jersey) Limited), the Sellers shall appoint a successor to such person within such thirty day period and shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such appointment. Such representation may be changed by the Sellers from time to time upon not less than thirty days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser and subject to the written approval of the Purchaser (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, however, that no person serving as Sellers’ Representative may be removed unless holders of a majority interest in the Relevant Claim Escrow Amount agree to such removal and to the identity of the substituted representative. Any vacancy in the position of Sellers’ Representative may be filled by approval of the holders of a majority interest in the Relevant Claim Escrow Amount. No bond shall be required of the Sellers’ Representative, and the Sellers’ Representative shall not receive compensation for its services.

Notices or communications to or from the Sellers’ Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Sellers. The Sellers’ Representative shall pass (and for the purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to have passed) any notices received pursuant to this Agreement on behalf of a Seller to such Seller without undue delay.

Signature of this Agreement by the Sellers’ Representative constitutes its acceptance of its appointment as Sellers’ Representative. Signature of this Agreement by the Sellers constitutes (a) their acknowledgement that the Sellers’ Representative is so authorised to act on their behalf to the extent set forth and as contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) their undertaking, at the Purchaser’s request, to ratify any step taken or commitment made by the Sellers’ Representative on the relevant Seller’s behalf, but only to the extent that the Sellers’ Representative is authorized to take such step or make such commitment pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

Each Seller agrees that the Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any act or omission in connection with the performance by it of any of its duties, functions or role as Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement (or, for the avoidance of doubt, the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document), except in the case of wilful default, fraud or gross negligence. Each Seller agrees not to bring any action or claim against the Sellers’ Representative in connection with the Sellers’ Representative’s appointment as Sellers’ Representative and/or in relation to any action which the Sellers’ Representative has taken or omitted to take in the past or may in the future take or omit to take in its capacity as the Sellers’ Representative, except in the case of wilful default, fraud or gross negligence. The Sellers shall, based on their Relevant Proportions, severally indemnify the Sellers’ Representative and hold the Sellers’ Representative harmless against any Loss incurred without wilful default, fraud or gross negligence on the part of the person serving as Sellers’

Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Sellers’ Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any outside legal counsel retained by the Sellers’ Representative.

The Purchaser may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Sellers in connection with this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement or any other Transaction Document as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each Seller. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser may rely exclusively, without independent verification or investigation, upon all decisions, communications or writings made, given or executed by the Sellers’ Representative or actions omitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with this Agreement, a Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Any notice or communication delivered by the Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed to have been delivered to all Sellers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser shall be entitled to rely upon the allocation by the Sellers’ Representative of any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement among the Sellers, and, subject to actual payment of any such amounts by the Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative, the Purchaser shall not have any liability to any Seller or any other person with respect to any claim that the amounts paid by the Sellers’ Representative to the Sellers are incomplete or inaccurate. Any payment by the Purchaser to the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document will be considered a payment by the Purchaser to the applicable Sellers.

Sellers’ Liability

Variation and Waiver

No variation or amendment of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by or on behalf of each Party.

Any failure by any Party to exercise, or any delay by it in exercising, any right, power or remedy provided for in this Agreement or by law shall not affect or constitute a waiver of such right, power or remedy.

Any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy provided for in this Agreement or by law shall not preclude any other or further exercise of it or any other right, power or remedy.

Further Assurance

Assignment

the assignee shall procure that any such person to whom it assigns any of its rights under this Agreement shall assign such rights back to the assignor immediately prior to it ceasing to be an Affiliate of such Party; and

in the event of such assignment the liability of any Party shall not be greater than that Party’s liability would have been to the other Parties had the assignment not taken place.

Costs and Expenses

Interest

Entire Agreement

This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties. They supersede any previous agreements relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the subject matter of the Transaction Documents and set out the complete legal relationship of the Parties arising from or connected with that subject matter.

Nothing in this Clause 22 shall have the effect of limiting any liability arising from fraud.

Each Party acknowledges that in entering into the Transaction Documents it does not rely on, and shall have no rights or remedies in respect of, any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in the Transaction Documents.

Invalidity

the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of this Agreement; or

the legality, validity or enforceability under the laws of any other jurisdiction of that or any other provision of this Agreement.

Rights of Third Parties

Notices

Any notice or other communication given under or in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing, in the English language and may be served by delivering it personally or sending it by internationally recognized courier, or email to the address and for the attention of the relevant Party set out in Clause 25.3 (or as otherwise notified by that Party under this Agreement).

Any such notice shall be deemed to have been received:

if delivered personally, at the time of delivery;

if sent by internationally recognized courier, four Business Days after posting it; and

in the case of email, upon receipt by the sender of a read receipt (or other appropriate evidence) that the email has been received by the addressee.

The addresses of the Parties for the purpose of this Clause are:

In proving service of a notice or other communication, it shall be sufficient to prove that the envelope containing such notice was addressed to the address of the relevant Party set out in this Clause (or as otherwise notified by that Party under this Agreement) and delivered either to that address or into the custody of an internationally recognized courier as a mail or airmail letter, or that the notice was transmitted by email to the email address of the relevant Party set out in this Clause (or as otherwise notified by that Party under this Agreement).

Counterparts

Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Service of Process

This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.

Any and all claims or disputes arising under or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be finally resolved by arbitration conducted under the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) Rules of Arbitration (the “Rules”) as in force at the date such arbitration is begun. The seat and place of any arbitration shall be London, United Kingdom and the English language shall be used throughout the arbitration proceedings. The number of arbitrators shall be three, one to be nominated by each of the Sellers’ Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) and the Purchaser, and the third, who shall serve as chairman, shall be nominated by the

two party-nominated arbitrators within 15 Business Days following their appointment by the ICC. Should either the Sellers’ Representative or the Purchaser fail timely to nominate an arbitrator, such arbitrator shall also be appointed by the ICC. Any award shall be final and binding on the Parties and may be confirmed in, and judgment upon the award entered by, any court having jurisdiction.

Without prejudice to Clause 27.2, the Parties agree that the English courts shall have jurisdiction (to which the Parties hereby irrevocably submit) to grant interim, injunctive and ancillary relief in support of any arbitral proceedings (whether or not actually commenced) under Clause 27.2.

Each Party waives any objection to the English courts on grounds that they are an inconvenient or inappropriate forum to settle any dispute.

The Purchaser and the Guarantor irrevocably authorize and appoint Trusec Limited of 2 Lambs Passage, London EC1Y 8BB as its agent in England for service of process. A copy will be delivered to the Purchaser and the Guarantor at the address or email address in Clause 25.3, provided that this requirement does not affect the validity of the appointment of the Purchaser’s and the Guarantor’s agent for service of process or the validity of service on that agent. The Sellers irrevocably authorise and appoint Eaton Towers Group plc of 6th Floor, 65 Gresham Street, London, EC2V 7NQ as its agent in England for service of process. A copy will be delivered to the Sellers at the address or email address in Clause 25.3, provided that this requirement does not affect the validity of the appointment of the Sellers’ agent for service of process or the validity of service on that agent.
