7.2

The Purchaser shall not, and shall procure and ensure that, during the Deferred Consideration Period no member of the Purchaser’s Group shall:

7.2.1

dispose an interest in, whether singly or in aggregate over a number of transactions, more than 50 per cent. of the voting rights of any Group Company or agree to do any of the foregoing; or

(such disposed portion hereinafter referred to as the “Disposed Business”),

- 25 -

in each case, without the written agreement of the Sellers as to the adjustments to be made to the EBITDA Target or, failing such agreement after 14 Business Days from the first consultation with the Sellers (the “First Consultation Date”), such adjustments as may be determined in accordance with Clauses 7.4 to 7.5. For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser may, in its discretion, proceed with and complete the disposal referred to in Clauses 7.2.1 and 7.2.2 before finalising the adjustments to EBITDA Target in accordance with this Agreement but shall give notice to the Sellers in any event no later than five Business Days after the said disposal for the purposes of obtaining the written agreement of the Sellers to the adjustments to be made.

7.4

The Parties acknowledge that the EBITDA Target is derived from the numbers in the 2012 Management Forecast. In the event of a disposal referred to in Clause 7.2, the EBITDA Target for the 2012 Deferred Consideration Period and/or the 2013 Deferred Consideration Period (as the case may be) will be reduced so as to exclude (on a pro-rata basis having regard to the date of disposal within the financial year) such proportion of the EBITDA in the 2012 Management Forecast which was attributed to the Disposed Business.

13.

Limitations Not Mutually Exclusive

The Completion Accounts and the computation of the Balance Sheet Adjustment shall be delivered to the Sellers by the Purchaser as soon as is practicable following Completion and, in any event, not later than 45 days after Completion.

Actual EBITDA shall exclude any amount of remuneration and other emoluments (including salary, all bonuses, commission, profit-sharing arrangements, incentive payments, retention payments, and payment in kind) of the Senior Employees in excess of the amounts in the 2012 Management Forecast and the 2013 Management Forecast respectively;

(vi)

Actual EBITDA shall adjust for any transactions between the Purchaser and any member of the Purchaser’s Group and any Group Company so that such transactions are carried out on arm’s length commercial terms including, without limitation charges made for management or other services;

(vii)

Actual EBITDA shall exclude any revenues or costs relating to products which fall outside the normal and ordinary course of business carried on by the Group Companies as at the Completion Date (soup, ready meals, desserts, drinks, fruit and ingredients) and for the avoidance of doubt shall exclude any revenues and costs relating to the existing business of the Purchaser’s Group immediately prior to Completion or acquisitions after Completion;

(viii)

Actual EBITDA shall exclude any amounts paid by the Sellers and received by the Purchaser and/or a Group Company in respect of claims made under this Agreement (including costs awarded by a court to the Purchaser and/or a Group Company) if and to the extent that the same has an effect on Actual EBITDA. For the avoidance of doubt, such amounts shall only impact the Actual EBITDA of the financial year in which the payment was received;

(ix)

Actual EBITDA shall exclude any costs relating to redundancies or reorganisations (“Reorganisations”) which are not in the ordinary course of business including any additional staff or other costs borne by the Group in relation to additional services which the Group provides or has to provide to the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s Group over and above the level of benefits achieved from such Reorganisations within the 2012 Deferred Consideration Period or the 2013 Deferred Consideration Period (as the case may be). To the extent that benefits arise in the 2012 Deferred Consideration Period where associated costs have been excluded in the 2012 Deferred Consideration Period, then the excluded costs shall be included in the 2013 Deferred Consideration Period capped at the level of related benefits in the 2013 Deferred Consideration Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusion herein shall not apply to any actions undertaken as a result in deterioration in trading from the projections in the 2012 Management Forecast and 2013 Management Forecast respectively;

(x)

Actual EBITDA shall exclude any costs relating to dilapidations or other costs of a capital nature unless provided for in the 2012 Management Forecast or 2012 Management Forecast;

3.	General

3.1

The Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA shall be prepared on the basis that they relate to the Group as a going concern and shall exclude any effect of the change of control or ownership of the Companies contemplated by this Agreement or any other effect of this Agreement.

3.2

The Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA shall be prepared in the format set out in Part 2 of this Schedule 12.

3.3

The provisions of this Schedule 12 and the line items comprising the 2012 Deferred Consideration Accounts and the 2013 Deferred Consideration Accounts shall be interpreted so as to avoid double counting (whether positive or negative) and/or omissions of any item.

4.	Preparation

4.1

The Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA shall be delivered to the Sellers by the Purchaser as soon as is practicable and:

4.1.1

(in the case of the 2012 Deferred Consideration Accounts) in any event, not later than 60 days after 31 March 2012; or

4.1.2

(in the case of the 2013 Deferred Consideration Accounts)in any event, not later than 60 days after 31 March 2013.

Prior to such delivery, the Purchaser shall, so far as is practicable, consult with the Sellers with a view to reducing the potential areas of future disagreement.

4.2

Each of the Sellers and the Purchaser shall co-operate with the other with regard to the preparation, review, agreement or determination of the Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA and shall, subject to reasonable notice, make available during normal office hours to the other and its representatives and accountants all books, records and working papers as the other Party(ies) may reasonably require. The Sellers and their advisers will also be granted reasonable access to personnel and premises of the Group for these purposes but at all times contact must be made by the Sellers via the Chief Financial Officer of the Purchaser (or his designee).

- 102 -

4.3

If the Sellers do not within 45 days of presentation to it of the Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA give notice to the Purchaser that it disagrees with any of the Deferred Consideration Accounts, the computation of Actual EBITDA or any item thereof, such notice stating the reasons for the disagreement in reasonable detail and specifying the adjustments which, in the Sellers’ opinion should be made to such Deferred Consideration Accounts and computation of Actual EBITDA (the “Sellers’ Deferred Disagreement Notice”), the Deferred Consideration Accounts shall be final and binding on the Parties for all purposes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the computation of Actual EBITDA). In respect of all sums not in dispute as set out in the Sellers’ Deferred Disagreement Notice, the Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of Actual EBITDA shall be deemed agreed. If the Sellers give a Sellers’ Deferred Disagreement Notice within such 45 days, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall attempt in good faith to reach agreement in respect of which of the specific items disputed set out in the Sellers’ Deferred Disagreement Notice should be included in the Deferred Consideration Accounts and/or the computation of Actual EBITDA (the “Disputed Deferred Consideration Accounts”) and, if they are unable to do so within 14 days of such notification, the Purchaser or the Sellers may by notice to the other require that such items as remain in dispute be referred to the Deferred Reporting Accountants.

4.4

The Deferred Reporting Accountants shall be engaged jointly by the Sellers and the Purchaser on the terms set out in this Schedule 12 and otherwise on such terms as shall be agreed between the Sellers and the Purchaser in writing; provided that neither the Sellers nor the Purchaser shall unreasonably (having regard, inter alia, to the provisions of this Schedule 12) refuse its agreement to terms proposed by the Deferred Reporting Accountants or by the other Party(ies). If the terms of engagement of the Deferred Reporting Accountants have not been settled within 14 days of their identity having been determined (or such longer period as the Sellers and the Purchaser may agree in writing) then, unless the Sellers or the Purchaser is unreasonably refusing its agreement to those terms, those accountants shall be deemed never to have become the Deferred Reporting Accountants and new Deferred Reporting Accountants shall be selected in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

4.5

Except to the extent that the Sellers and the Purchaser agree otherwise, the Deferred Reporting Accountants shall determine their own procedure but:

4.5.1

apart from procedural matters and as otherwise set out in this Agreement shall determine only those items set out in the Sellers’ Deferred Disagreement Notice which have not been agreed by the Parties and whether these should be included in the Disputed Deferred Consideration Accounts in order to correct the relevant inaccuracy in it;

4.5.2

shall apply the principles set out in paragraphs 1 to 3 herein;

4.5.3

shall make their determination pursuant to paragraph 4.5.1 as soon as is reasonably practicable and in any event within 20 days from their appointment; and

4.5.4

the procedure of the Deferred Reporting Accountants shall:

(i)

give the Sellers and the Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to make written representations to them;

- 103 -

(ii)

require that the Deferred Reporting Accountants supply the Parties with a copy of any written representations made by any Party and allow each Party to comment on the other’s written representations; and

(iii)

for the avoidance of doubt, the Deferred Reporting Accountants shall not be entitled to determine the scope of their own jurisdiction.

4.6

The determination of the Deferred Reporting Accountants pursuant to paragraph 4.5.1 shall:

4.6.1

be made in writing; and

4.6.2

unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Sellers and the Purchaser, include reasons for each relevant determination.

4.7

The Deferred Reporting Accountants shall act as experts and not as arbitrators and their determination of any matter falling within their jurisdiction shall be final and binding on the Parties save in the event of manifest error (when the relevant part of their determination shall be void and the matter shall be remitted to the Deferred Reporting Accountants for correction). In particular, without limitation, their determination shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Disputed Deferred Consideration Accounts and the computation of the Actual EBITDA.

4.8

The proportion of expenses (including VAT) of the Deferred Reporting Accountants borne by the Purchaser shall be the same proportion as the items ruled in the Sellers’ favour compared to the total items disputed by the Sellers. The remaining expenses (including VAT) of the Deferred Reporting Accountants shall be borne by the Sellers.

4.9

The Sellers and the Purchaser shall co-operate with the Deferred Reporting Accountants and comply with their reasonable requests made in connection with the carrying out of their duties under this Agreement. In particular, without limitation, the Purchaser shall keep up-to-date and, subject to reasonable notice, make available during normal office hours to the Deferred Reporting Accountants and the Sellers all books, working papers and records relating to the Group as the Deferred Reporting Accountants may reasonably request during the period from the appointment of the Deferred Reporting Accountants down to the making of the relevant determination.

4.10

Nothing in paragraph 4 shall entitle a Party or the Deferred Reporting Accountants access to any information or document which is protected by legal professional privilege or litigation privilege, provided that neither the Sellers nor the Purchaser shall be entitled to refuse to supply such part or parts of documents as contain only the facts on which the relevant claim or argument is based.
