CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND POST-TERMINATION RESTRICTIONS 19.1 The Employee acknowledges that in the course of the Appointment he will have access to Confidential Information. The Employee has therefore agreed to accept the restrictions in this clause. 19.2 Without prejudice to his common law duties, the Employee shall not (except in the proper course of his duties), as authorised or required by law) either during the Appointment or at any time after its termination (however arising): (a) use any Confidential Information; or (b) make or use any Copies; or (c) disclose any Confidential Information to any person, company or other organisation whatsoever. 19.3 The restriction in clause 19.2 shall not apply to: (a) any use or disclosure authorised by the Board or required by law; or (b) any information which is already in, or comes into, the public domain other than through the Employee's unauthorised disclosure. 19.4 The Employee shall be responsible for protecting the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and shall: (a) use his best endeavours to prevent the use or communication of any Confidential Information by any person, company or organisation (except in the proper course of his duties, as required by law or as authorised by the Company); and (b) inform the Company immediately on becoming aware, or suspecting, that any such person, company or organisation knows or has used any Confidential Information. 19.5 The Employees agrees to be bound by the restrictions in Appendix 1. 15 20.

This PILON will be equal to the basic salary (as at the date of termination) which the Employee would have been entitled to receive under this agreement during the notice period referred to at clause 2.4 (or, if notice has already been given, during the remainder of the notice period) less income tax, national insurance contributions and as otherwise required by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the PILON shall not include any element in relation to: (a) any bonus or commission payments that might otherwise have been due during the period for which the PILON is made; (b) any payment in respect of benefits which the Employee would have been entitled to receive during the period for which the PILON is made; and (c) any payment in respect of any holiday entitlement that would have accrued during the period for which the PILON is made. 21.2 The Company may pay any sums due under clause 21.1 in equal monthly instalments until the date on which the notice period referred to at clause 2.4 would have expired if notice had been given. The Employee shall be obliged to seek alternative income during this period and to notify the Company of any income so received. The instalment payments shall then be reduced by the amount of such income. 21.3 The Employee shall have no right to receive a PILON unless the Company has exercised its discretion in clause 21.1. Nothing in this clause 21 shall prevent the Company from terminating the Appointment in breach. 16 21.4 Notwithstanding clause 21.1 the Employee shall not be entitled to any PILON if the Company would otherwise have been entitled to terminate the Appointment without notice in accordance with clause 23. In that case the Company shall also be entitled to recover from the Employee any PILON (or instalments thereof) already made. 22. GARDEN LEAVE 22.1 Following service of notice to terminate the Appointment by either party, or if the Employee purports to terminate the Appointment in breach of contract, the Company may by written notice place him on Garden Leave for the whole or part of the remainder of the Appointment. 22.2 During any period of Garden Leave: (a) the Company shall be under no obligation to provide any work to the Employee and may revoke any powers he holds on any Group Company’s behalf; (b) the Company may require the Employee to carry out alternative duties or to only perform such specific duties as are expressly assigned to him, at such location (including his home) as it may decide; (c) the Employee shall continue to receive his basic salary and all contractual benefits in the usual way and subject to the terms of any benefit arrangement; (d) the Employee shall remain the Company’s employee and be bound by the terms of this agreement (including any implied duties of good faith and fidelity); (e) the Employee shall ensure that his Line Manager knows where he will be and how he can be contacted during each working day (except during any periods taken as holiday in the usual way); (f) the Company may exclude him from any Group Company’s premises; and (g) the Company may require the Employee not to contact or deal with (or attempt to contact or deal with) any officer, employee, consultant, client, customer, supplier, agent, distributor, shareholder, adviser or other business contact of any Group Company. 23.
