(B) The Vendors together are engaged in the Business through the Group Companies.

(D) Invensys and General Atlantic Partners (an affiliated company of the Purchaser) entered into the Confidentiality Agreement.

(E) The Vendors have prepared a Data Room containing information concerning the Shares, the Subsidiary Shares and the Business.

(F) The Vendors and the Purchaser have complied with the provisions of the Social and Economic Council Merger Regulation 2000 (SER-Fusiegedragsregels 2000), the Works Council Act (Wet op de Ondernemingsraden) and any similar applicable legislation outside of the Netherlands that are relevant to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. In particular, prior to or on the date of this Agreement the central works council of the Business in the Netherlands provided positive advice with respect to the transfer of the Shares to the Purchaser as contemplated under the terms of this Agreement.

(G) The Vendors have agreed to sell, or procure the sale, of the Shares owned by each of them and the Purchaser has agreed to purchase the Shares from each of the relevant Vendors, for the consideration and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement.

IT IS AGREED as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

1.1 Words and expressions used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set out in Schedule 1, unless the context requires otherwise.

1.2 The Schedules comprise schedules to this Agreement and form part of this Agreement and shall have the same force and effect as if set out in the body of this Agreement and any reference to this Agreement shall include the Schedules.

2. SALE OF THE SHARES AND CONSIDERATION

2.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Vendors hereby sells to the Purchaser and agrees to transfer to the Purchaser or a Nominated Purchaser the Shares set opposite its name in Part A of Schedule 2 and the Purchaser hereby purchases the relevant Shares from the relevant Vendors and agrees to accept or procure that a Nominated Purchaser accepts the transfer thereof from the Vendors on the Completion Date, free from all Encumbrances together with all accrued rights and benefits attached thereto.

2.2 The initial consideration for the sale of the Shares of the Companies (the Initial Consideration) shall be the payment by the Purchaser to the Vendors upon

Completion (in accordance with the provisions of clause 5.3) of an amount in cash in US$ equal to:

DCFP – (EIGP + EED) + (EIGR +ECB) + (ETWC – BTWC)

Where:

DCFP	=	Debt/Cash Free Price

EIGP	=	the aggregate of the Estimated Inter-Group Payables in respect of all the Group Companies

EED	=	the aggregate of the Estimated External Debt in respect of all the Group Companies

EIGR	=	the aggregate of the Estimated Inter-Group Receivables in respect of all the Group Companies

ECB	=	the aggregate of the Estimated Cash Balance in respect of all the Group Companies

ETWC	=	Estimated Trade Working Capital

BTWC	=	Baseline Trade Working Capital

2.3 Without prejudice to the Vendors’ obligations under clause 4.3(b), the Vendors shall procure that the Group Companies, acting reasonably and in good faith, estimate (a) the Estimated External Debt, the Estimated Cash Balance, the Estimated Inter-Group Payables and the Estimated Inter-Group Receivables in relation to each Group Company and (b) the Estimated Trade Working Capital, and shall deliver to the Purchaser the written notice of such estimate amounts by no later than 17:30 (Amsterdam time) on the last Business Day that is at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Completion Date. Prior to the Vendors delivering such estimate amounts to the Purchaser, the Vendors agree that they shall inform, and give the Purchaser reasonable opportunity to consult with the Vendors, regarding the amounts of the Estimated External Debt, the Estimated Cash Balance, the Estimated Inter-Group Payables and the Estimated Inter-Group Receivables in relation to each Group Company and the amount of the Estimated Trade Working Capital.

2.4 If the aggregate of the Estimated Cash Balance in respect of all the Group Companies exceeds $2,000,000 (hereinafter the Cash Limit), then (i) the amount of the Cash Limit shall be taken into account as the amount of the Estimated Cash Balance for the purposes of calculating the Initial Consideration, and (ii) in calculating the External Net Debt Adjustment the Estimated Cash Balance that will be taken into account will be the amount of the Cash Limit, provided that if the Purchaser has requested the Vendors (in accordance with the provisions of clause 4.3(b)) to leave a certain amount of Cash in the relevant bank account of the relevant Group Company, then the amount of the Cash Limit will be increased by the amount of Cash so requested by the Purchaser to be left in the relevant bank account of the relevant Group Company.

2.5 Furthermore, the Initial Consideration shall be increased by any Restructuring Costs incurred by the Group Companies prior to the Completion Date in accordance with clause 4.4.

2.6 Following the agreement or determination of the Adjustment Statement (including the determination of the Final Trade Working Capital and the Final External Debt, Final Cash Balance, Final Inter-Group Receivables and Final Inter-Group Payables in relation to each Group Company) in accordance with Schedule 7, the Initial Consideration for the Shares shall be adjusted to reflect the amount of any payment made in accordance with clause 7 (but not reflect any amount of interest paid pursuant thereto). The final consideration for the sale of the Shares (the Final Consideration) shall, subject to the provisions of clause 15.4(d)(iii), comprise the Initial Consideration for such sale as so adjusted.

2.7 The Final Consideration for the relevant Shares of each Company as so determined and as otherwise adjusted in accordance with this Agreement, shall be adopted by the relevant Vendor (on behalf of itself and each of the other members of the Retained Group) and the Purchaser (on behalf of itself and each of the other members of the Purchaser’s Group) for all purposes (including Tax) except: (i) as otherwise required by law; (ii) as otherwise agreed by the parties in this Agreement or (iii) as otherwise agreed by the parties in writing.

2.8 If any payment is made by the Vendor to the Purchaser pursuant to a claim made by the Purchaser for any breach of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any Relevant Claim), the payment shall so far as possible be deemed to adjust the price paid for the relevant Shares by a matching amount and where such payment is specifically referable to a Company and/or its Subsidiaries, to adjust the price for the Shares in respect of that Company. Where any payment is not specifically referable to a Company and/or its Subsidiaries, the price paid for the Shares of all Companies to which such payment is referable shall be deemed to have been adjusted pro rata.

2.9 Subject to clause 2.8 above, the Vendor and the Purchaser agree that the apportionment of the Initial Consideration between the Shares shall be as set out in Schedule 3.

3. CONDITIONS

3.1 The obligations of the Purchaser and the Vendors to complete this Agreement are in all respects conditional upon the fulfilment or waiver of the following conditions:

(d) provide each other (or each other’s agents or advisers) with draft copies of all submissions, filings, notifications and communications to any Competition Authority in relation to obtaining any such consent, approval or action (excluding communications of an administrative nature) at such time as will allow the other (or its agents or advisers) a reasonable opportunity to provide comments on such submissions, filings, notifications and communications and to amend them in accordance with the reasonable requirements of such Party (or its agents or advisers) before they are submitted or sent to such Competition Authority and take into account any such comments or amendments; and provide each other (or each other’s agents or advisers) with copies of all such submissions and communications in the form submitted or sent; and

(e) where reasonably requested by the other Party, and where permitted by the Competition Authority concerned, allow persons nominated by the Vendors or the Purchaser, as the case may be, to attend all meetings (and participate in all telephone or other conversations) with any Competition Authority and, where appropriate, to make oral submissions at such meetings (or telephone or other conversations).

3.5 Upon an act, omission or event having occurred which upon Completion would result in a Material Breach or any breach as a result of which the Vendors would not having complied in all material respects with their obligations referred to in clause 4.3(d), the Purchaser shall be entitled (in addition and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies it may have against the Vendors under this Agreement), to

3.7 Upon receipt of any Rescission Notice, if the Material Breach is capable of remedy the Vendors may within five (5) Business Days elect by written notice to the Purchaser to extend the rescission of this Agreement by up to thirty (30) days after such notice, and the length of such extension shall be indicated in such notice. During such time, the Vendors shall be entitled, and shall use all reasonable endeavours, to remedy the breach, matter, event or circumstance giving rise to the Rescission Notice.

(a) the Purchaser allowing, or, as appropriate, co-operating to procure that the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group allows, the relevant Vendor to take on or take over (on the costs and expenses basis referred to in the preceding sentence) the conduct of all proceedings and/or negotiations of whatsoever nature arising in connection with the third party claim in question; or, (at the relevant Vendor’s discretion).

(b) the Purchaser assigning or procuring the assignment to the relevant Vendor (or as the relevant Vendor may direct) of any rights of action which the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group may have against any third party in respect of the third party claim in question.

If the relevant Vendor takes on or takes over the conduct of proceedings and/or negotiations:

(i) the Purchaser shall, on the basis that the relevant Vendor shall fully indemnify the Purchaser and the relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group against all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses consequently arising (excluding for the sake of clarity any internal management time costs), provide (or, as appropriate, co-operate to

procure that such member of the Purchaser’s Group provides) such information and assistance as the relevant Vendor may reasonably require in connection with the preparation for and conduct of such proceedings and/or negotiations;

(ii) the Vendors shall, subject to any legal privilege or customary confidentiality considerations, update the Purchaser with reasonable frequency with regard to the conduct of proceedings and/or negotiations;

(iii) where, in relation to a Relevant Claim to which this clause applies, a Vendor is able to secure a potential settlement for the relevant Group Company with a relevant third party at an amount which is less than the amount of the loss in such Group Company in respect of which the Relevant Claim is made it shall notify the Purchaser which shall then either (i) agree to that settlement (in which event, effective upon payment in full by or on behalf of the Vendors to the Purchaser of the relevant settlement amount and the settlement becoming effective, the Vendors shall be released from all liability in respect of any Relevant Claim, potential Relevant Claim to which the third party claim relates) or (ii) elect to take over negotiations with the relevant third party in which case the Purchaser shall release (and provide written confirmation of such release to) the Vendors from all liability in respect of any Relevant Claim or potential Relevant Claim to which the third party claim relates in excess of the amount of such potential settlement as stated in such notice. If the Purchaser has not notified the Vendors of its decision within twenty (20) Business Days of being notified of the proposed settlement, it shall be deemed to have elected to agree to the proposed settlement.

Except with the prior consent of the Purchaser (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) the relevant Vendor shall not where it has assumed control of negotiations or proceedings in respect of third party claims under the provisions of this clause 9.7, settle or compromise any such claim on a basis which results in a net increase in any member of the Purchaser’s Groups’ tax or other liabilities elsewhere unless the relevant Vendor fully indemnifies such entity in respect of such net increase. Upon the relevant Vendor agreeing any settlement with a third party in relation to any third party claim as referred to above, the relevant Vendor shall (to the extent that it is liable under the provisions of this Agreement in respect of the payment of any part of the settlement amount) promptly put the Purchaser in funds in respect of that part at the same time as the Purchaser or, as the case may be, the member of the Purchaser’s Group is required to make due payment of the settlement amount to the third party.

9.8 Notwithstanding any other provision of clause 9.7, the Purchaser shall not be required to take, permit or omit, or procure the taking, permitting or omission of, any step or action in relation to any third party claim nor shall the Purchaser be prevented from making any admission of liability, agreement or compromise with any person, body or authority if and for so long as the taking, permitting or omission of steps or admission would be likely to have a material and adverse effect on any trading

relationship or the goodwill of any Group Company or the Business as a whole, provided that:

(a) in such event the Purchaser shall keep the Vendors reasonably informed with regard to the conduct or negotiations with respect to the third party claim in question;

(b) the Purchaser shall not, and shall procure that the members of the Purchaser’s Group shall not, announce or otherwise disclose the terms of any settlement or compromise with respect to any such third party claim in a manner reasonably expected to damage the reputation of any member of the Retained Group; and

(c) the amount of Damages payable by the Vendors with respect to the Vendor Breach to which such third party claim relates, shall not exceed the amount of Damages that would have been payable by such Vendors if the Purchaser had not exercised its rights under the previous provisions of this clause 9.8.

9.9 For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of clause 9.7 shall not in any way restrict or limit the general obligation at law of the Purchaser and each of the members of the Purchaser’s Group to mitigate any loss or damage which it may suffer in consequence of any breach by the Vendors of the terms of this Agreement or any matter giving rise to a claim against the Vendors.

9.10 No Vendor shall have any liability in respect of any Vendor Breach unless the liability of the Vendors in respect of such claim for a Vendor Breach exceeds US$50,000, in which case the Vendor shall be liable (subject always to the other provisions of this clause 9) for the full amount of such claim and not only the excess. For the avoidance of doubt, amounts for which the Vendors have no liability, or by which the Vendors’ liability is reduced, as a consequence of the operation of this clause 9.10 shall not be capable of constituting a claim for a Vendor Breach or increasing the amount thereof for the purpose of this clause 9.10.

9.11 Other than with respect to any Damages resulting from or relating to any breach by the Vendors of the Title Warranties, the Tax Warranties, the Tax Covenants and the provisions of clauses 6.5 and 6.6, no liability shall attach to the Vendors in respect of any Vendor Breach unless the aggregate amount of the liability of the Vendors to the Purchaser in respect of all claims for Vendor Breaches shall exceed US$1 million in which case the Vendors shall only be liable (subject always to the other provisions of this clause 9) for the excess above such amount.

9.12 The total aggregate liability of the Vendors in respect of all Vendor Breaches shall not exceed an amount equal to fifteen per cent. (15%) of the Debt/Cash Free Price, other than with respect to Vendor Breaches relating to the Title Warranties, Intellectual Property Title Warranty, the Tax Warranties, the Tax Covenants and the provisions of clauses 6.5 and 6.6, in respect of which the total aggregate liability of the Vendors in respect of such Vendor Breaches (together with all other Vendor Breaches) shall not exceed the amount of the Debt and Cash Free Price.

9.13 No Vendors shall be liable for any Vendor Breach in respect of any matter to the extent that:

(a) the information underlying the Vendor Breach is or was fairly disclosed to the Purchaser and/or its representatives or advisors in (i) this Agreement; (ii) the Disclosure Letter; (iii) the Data Room prepared by the Vendors containing information concerning the Shares and the Business, which Data Room the Purchaser was allowed to access for the purposes of a due diligence review; (iv) the written answers provided to the questions submitted by the Purchaser during such due diligence process; (v) the written documents provided to the Purchaser and/or its advisors during management presentations and the interviews with the Group Companies and their advisors, the information referred to in (iii), (iv) and (v) above being the information listed in the index contained in Schedule 20, provided that for the purposes hereof the information underlying the Vendor Breach concerned shall only be considered to have been fairly disclosed if and to the extent that such information was reasonably evident from the contents of the document disclosed and shall, for the sake of clarity, not be considered to have been fairly disclosed if contained in a document referenced in a document that was disclosed to the Purchaser or its advisors, but not actually itself disclosed to the Purchaser or its advisors; or

(b) specific provision or reserve has been made for such matter in the Accounts.

9.14 In the calculation of any Damages in respect of a Vendor Breach, the amount of such Damages shall be reduced by:

(a) the net amount of Tax saving to the Purchaser or the relevant Group Company in connection with the circumstances that gave rise to the Vendor Breach;

(b) the net amount recovered under any insurance policy held by the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group (including the Group Companies); and

(c) the amount of any net amount which the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group (including the Group Companies) actually recovers from a third party under a claim in connection with said circumstances.

9.15 If any Tax Authority brings into charge, or imposes any Tax on, or requires a withholding or deduction from a payment made, to be made, procured to have been made or to be procured to be made by the Vendors pursuant to a Vendor Breach, then the Vendors shall pay such additional amount as soon as reasonably possible so as to ensure that the total amount paid, less the Tax charged, or imposed on, or withheld or deducted from, such amount, is equal to the amount that would otherwise be received by the Purchaser as Damages pursuant to such Vendor Breach. The obligations of the Vendors under this clause 9.15 shall not apply in circumstances where the obligation to withhold or deduct Tax has arisen due to the fact that the Purchaser has nominated a Nominated Purchaser resident in a country other than the United States of America, the Netherlands or the United Kingdom.

9.16 If a Vendor pays to the Purchaser an amount in discharge of a Relevant Claim and the Purchaser or any member of the Purchaser’s Group subsequently recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party (including any taxation authority) a sum which is referable to that Relevant Claim, the

Purchaser shall (or, as appropriate, shall procure that such member of the Purchaser’s Group shall) forthwith repay to such Vendor:

(a) an amount equal to the sum recovered from the third party less any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser or the member of the Purchaser’s Group in recovering the same; or

(b) if the figure resulting under paragraph (a) is greater than the amount paid by the Vendor to the Purchaser or the member of the Purchaser’s Group in respect of the such Relevant Claim, such lesser amount as shall have been so paid by the Vendor;

so as to leave the Purchaser (taking into account the amounts received from the third party and from the Vendor and those payable to the Vendor under this clause) in no better or worse position than it would have been in (subject always to the other provisions of this clause 9) had the Relevant Claim not arisen in the first place.

9.17 If any Relevant Claim shall arise by reason of some liability which at the time that the Relevant Claim is notified to the Vendors is contingent only, the Vendors shall not be under any obligation to make any payment to the Purchaser thereunder until such time as such contingent liability ceases to be so contingent.

9.18 Upon any Relevant Claim being made, the Purchaser shall, and shall co-operate to procure that each member of the Purchaser’s Group shall, make available to accountants and others appointed by the relevant Vendor such relevant records and information as the Vendor reasonably requests in connection with such Relevant Claim and the Purchaser shall, and shall procure that each member of the Purchaser’s Group shall, use best endeavours to procure that the auditors (both past and then current) of the Purchaser’s Group make available to the relevant Vendor and to accountants and others appointed by the Vendor their audit working papers in respect of audit of any member of the Purchaser’s Group accounts for any relevant accounting period in connection with the Relevant Claim.

9.19 The Vendors shall not be liable in respect of any Relevant Claim to the extent that such Relevant Claim is attributable to, or such Relevant Claim otherwise having arisen, is increased as a result of, any legislation not in force at the date hereof, any change of law or administrative practice which takes effect retroactively.

9.20 The Purchaser hereby agrees for itself and on behalf of each member of the Purchaser’s Group with the Vendors that in respect of any claim for a Vendor Breach where the Vendors may be liable to the Purchaser under the Vendor Warranties and which may also give rise to a liability under the International Tax Covenant or the US Tax Covenant, the Vendors shall not be obliged to meet any such liability more than once and any recovery by the Purchaser in respect of any such Vendor Breach under the Vendor Warranties shall be deemed to be a recovery by all the relevant parties under the International Tax Covenant and the US Tax Covenant (as appropriate) and any recovery by any party under either the International Tax Covenant or the US Tax Covenant shall be deemed to be a recovery by the Purchaser under this Agreement for breach of the Vendor Warranties (as the case may be) and a recovery by the Purchaser

or any member of the Purchaser’s Group shall be deemed to be a recovery by each of them.

9.21 The Purchaser shall, and shall cause each Group Company to, take all reasonable steps (including refraining from taking certain actions that would cause Damages to be incurred or increased) to mitigate any and all Damages incurred by any of the Purchaser or any of the Group Companies for which the Vendors (or any of them) could reasonably be expected to be obligated to indemnify such parties under the provisions of this clause 9.

9.22 The total aggregate liability of the Purchaser in respect of any breaches of its obligations hereunder, other than with respect to breaches relating to the Tax Covenants, shall not exceed an amount equal to $60,000,000.

10. PURCHASER WARRANTIES

10.1 The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Vendors that as of the date of this Agreement and the Completion Date, the statements contained in the Purchaser Warranties are true, accurate and not misleading.

10.2 The Vendors hereby acknowledge that when entering into this Agreement they did not rely on any warranty or statement other than the Purchaser Warranties.

10.3 In the event of a breach of the Purchaser Warranties, the limitations on claim referred to in clause 9 shall, to the extent relevant, apply mutatis mutandis to any claim by the Vendors with respect to such breach.

and the term Retained Lawsuit shall refer to any one of them.

(b) With respect to the Retained Lawsuits, the Vendors agree that they shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser on a dollar-for-dollar basis, without regard to the limitations of clause 9, for and against all amounts paid by the Group Companies after Completion for any and all Damages suffered in connection with such Retained Lawsuit and any side litigation specifically related thereto.

(c) Subject to clause 11.1(d) hereof, the Vendors shall pay any amounts due under clause 1l.l(b) hereof within 30 days of the receipt by the Vendors of (i) a signed and executed copy of a deed of settlement in respect of such Retained Lawsuit or (ii) a copy of an enforceable judgement by the relevant court in respect of such Retained Lawsuit; provided, that to the extent such judgment is reversed or overturned on appeal, and no further appeal to any court will be possible under the applicable laws, the indemnified party will return any amounts advanced by the Vendors in respect thereof.

11.2 Transferred Lawsuits

(a) For the purposes of this clause 11.2, the term Transferred Lawsuits shall refer to:

(i) the claim instituted by Faber Enterprises against, among others, Baan U.S.A., Inc., Baan Development B.V., Baan Company N.V. under which the plaintiff alleges, among others, breach of warranties, intentional misrepresentation and unfair competition in the failed implementation of Baan 5.b ERP and APS software; and

(ii) the arbitration proceedings instituted by KCI Konecranes International plc against Bean Company N.V. in which the plaintiff alleges, among others, breach of warranties and fraud and misrepresentation in connection with contracts for the supply and implementation of Xxxx 0 ERP software and the side litigation with respect to attachments effected by KCI Konecranes International plc as referred to in the Stibbe memorandum dated 21 May 2003 (included as document 15.73 of the index contained in Schedule 20 hereto); and

(iii) the suit by Baan Company N.V. against KCI Konecranes International plc in US Federal Court in San Jose, California, to seek damages against KCI Konecranes International plc for breach of the Source Code Agreement with Baan Development B.V.

(b) Subject to clause 11.2(c), with respect to the Transferred Lawsuits, the Purchaser agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless the Vendors on a dollar-for-dollar basis, without regard to the limitations of clause 9, for and against all amounts paid by the Retained Group after Completion for any and all Damages suffered in connection with such Transferred Lawsuit and any side litigation specifically related thereto.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause 11.2(b), Parties agree that if the Group Companies or any one of them, due to having taken transfer of the Transferred Lawsuit referred to in 11.2(a)(ii), is or becomes liable to pay an amount of Damages with respect to such Transferred Lawsuit and any side litigation specifically related thereto in excess of $7,000,000 (such amount hereinafter referred to as the KCI Reserve), then the Vendors shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, without regard to the limitations of clause 9, for fifty per cent. (50%) of the amount of Damages for which the relevant Group Company is liable in excess of the KCI Reserve, provided that:

(i) the obligation of the Vendors to indemnify the Purchaser under this clause 11.2(c) shall not apply with respect to any Damages that the Purchaser’s Group is or becomes liable to pay with respect to such Transferred Lawsuit and any side litigation specifically related thereto in excess of $13,500,000 (i.e. maximum exposure for the Vendors will be equal to $3,250,000); and

(ii) the amount of the KCI Reserve shall be deemed to have been increased by any amounts recovered by the Purchaser’s Group under the Transferred Lawsuit referred to in clause 11.2(a)(iii) and any side litigation specifically related thereto. If any such recovery takes place after any amount has been paid to a member of the Purchaser’s Group pursuant to the indemnity contained in the first paragraph of this

clause 11.2(c), then the Purchaser will reimburse the Vendors on the basis that such recovered amount will be added to the KCI Reserve and the amounts payable by the Vendors will be retroactively recalculated and reduced on that same basis.

For the avoidance of doubt, any recoveries in relation to the Transferred Lawsuit referred to in clause 11.2(a)(iii) shall be for the sole benefit of the Purchaser’s Group. Similarly if the actual Damages in relation to the Transferred Lawsuit referred to in clause 11.2(a)(ii) would be less than $7,000,000, the difference between the KCI Reserve and the amount of such actual damages will also be for the sole benefit of the Purchaser’s Group.

(d) Subject to clause 11.2(e) hereof, the Purchaser shall pay any amounts due under clause 11.2(b) hereof and the Vendors will pay amounts due under clause 11.2(c) hereof into a bank account to be designated by the Vendors or the Purchaser, as the case may be, within 30 days of the receipt by the Purchaser or the Vendors, as the case may be, of (i) a signed and executed copy of a deed of settlement in respect of such Transferred Lawsuits or (ii) a copy of an enforceable judgement by the relevant court in respect of such Transferred Lawsuits, provided, that to the extent such judgment is reversed or overturned on appeal and no further appeal to any court will be possible under the applicable laws, the indemnified party will return any amounts advanced by the indemnifying party in respect thereof.

(e) Subject to clause 11.2(c)(ii), each Vendor agrees (on behalf of itself and each relevant member of the Retained Group) that the full benefit of any amount recovered (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party (including any taxation authority) that is referable to a Transferred Lawsuits, shall accrue for the benefit of the Purchaser or any relevant Group Company.

(f) With respect to the Transferred Lawsuits:

(i) the Vendors shall not make and shall procure that no member of the Retained Group makes any admission of liability, agreement or compromise with any person, body or authority or exercises, agrees to mitigate or waives any right in relation thereto;

(ii) the parties agree that the Purchaser or other relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group shall have full control over the conduct of all proceedings and/or negotiations of whatsoever nature arising in connection with the Transferred Lawsuits (including without limitation with respect to agreeing to any settlement or compromise thereof) and accordingly the Vendors and the Purchaser shall take (or, as appropriate, co-operate to procure that the relevant member of the Retained Group or Purchaser’s Group, as the case may be, shall take) all such action as may be necessary:

(A) to allow, or, as appropriate, co-operate to procure that the relevant member of the Retained Group allows, the Purchaser

or member of the Purchaser’s Group to take on or take over (on the costs and expenses basis referred to in clause 11.2(b)) the conduct of all proceedings and/or negotiations of whatsoever nature arising in connection with the Transferred Lawsuits; and

(B) to assign or procure the assignment to the Purchaser or member of the Purchaser’s Group of any rights of action which the Vendors (or any of them) or any member of the Retained Group may have against any third party in respect of the Transferred Lawsuits;

(iii) the Vendors shall, on the basis that the Purchaser or member of the Purchaser’s Group shall fully indemnify the Vendors and the relevant member of the Retained Group against all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses consequently arising, provide (or, as appropriate, co-operate to procure that such member of the Retained Group provides) such information and assistance as the Purchaser may reasonably require (including without limitation access to any employee, director or officer of an member of the Retained Group) in connection with the preparation for and conduct of such proceedings.

(a) the Vendors shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each of the Group Companies on a dollar-for-dollar basis, without regard to the limitations of clause 9, for and against all amounts paid by the Group Companies after Completion with respect to any lawsuit ongoing as at the date hereof or arising after Completion, other than the Transferred Lawsuit, to which Baan Company N.V. is a party and that relates to events or occurrences that took place prior to or following Completion (including all Damages suffered in connection with such lawsuits);

(b) the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Vendors and each of the members of the Retained Group on a dollar-for-dollar basis, without regard to the limitations of clause 9, for and against all amounts paid by the Vendors or any member of the Retained Group after Completion with respect to any lawsuit ongoing as at the date hereof or arising after Completion, other than the Retained Lawsuits, to which any Group Company is a party and that relates to events or occurrences that took place prior to or following Completion (including all Damages suffered in connection with such lawsuits).

a copy of an enforceable judgement by the relevant court in respect of such lawsuit, provided, that to the extent such judgment is reversed or overturned on appeal, and no further appeal to any court will be possible under the applicable laws, the indemnified party will return any amounts advanced by the indemnifying party in respect thereof;

(ii) the indemnified party agrees (on behalf of itself and each relevant Group Company or member of the Retained Group, as the case may be) that the full benefit of any amount recovered (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party (including any taxation authority) which is referable to the lawsuit concerned, shall accrue for the benefit of the indemnifying party or any other relevant member of the Retained Group or Group Company, as the case may be;

(iii) the indemnified party shall not make and shall procure that no member of its group (being the Retained Group or the Purchaser’s Group, as the case may be) makes any admission of liability, agreement or compromise with any person, body or authority or exercises, agrees to mitigate or waives any right in relation thereto;

(iv) the parties agree that the indemnifying party or other relevant member of its group shall have full control over the conduct of all proceedings and/or negotiations of whatsoever nature arising in connection with the such lawsuits (including without limitation with respect to agreeing to any settlement or compromise thereof); and

11.4 Barneveld Project

(a) With respect to the letter of intent concluded between V.d. Top Projectrealisatie B.V. and Baan International B.V. on 16 July 2002 (the LOI), Parties agree that to the extent that any Damages are suffered with respect to the LOI (including without limitation the termination thereof) by any member of the Purchaser’s Group or the Retained Group, the first $500,000 of such Damages shall be borne by the Purchaser’s Group. The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Vendors and the members of the Retained Group, without regard to the limitations referred to in clause 10.3, for any amount of Damages suffered with respect to the LOI where such Damages relates to such initial $500,000 portion.

(b) Any Damages suffered in excess of such amount of $500,000 shall be borne in equal portions by the Purchaser or relevant member of the Purchaser’s Group, on the one hand, and the Vendors or relevant member of the Retained Group, on the other. The Vendors and the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold each other harmless, without regard to the limitations of clause 9 or those referred to in clause 10.3, as the case may be, so as to give effect to such 50/50 allocation of the excess portion of the Damages.

(a) while so employed, a base salary or wage rate with respect to such Employee being employed by the relevant Group Company that is not less than his or her base salary or wage rate in effect immediately prior to the Completion Date; and

(b) while so employed, cash incentive opportunities (including, but not limited to, gainsharing, sales incentives and merit bonuses), employee benefits plans, programs and arrangements (other than stock-based or similar equity incentive plan) that are substantially similar in the aggregate to the cash incentive opportunities, employee benefits plans, programs and arrangements in effect immediately prior to the Completion Date.

21.4 Where any announcement or disclosure is made in reliance on the exception in clauses 21.1 and 21.2, the party making the announcement or disclosure will use its reasonable endeavours to consult with the other party in advance as to the form, content and timing of any such announcement or disclosure.

22. COSTS

22.1 Subject to clause 22.2, each of the parties shall pay its own Costs incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and completion of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and shall procure the payment by the members of their respective Group Companies of such Costs incurred by them, provided that no such costs shall be borne by any of the Group Companies.

If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the Transaction Documents is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall (so far as it is invalid or unenforceable) be given no effect and shall be deemed not to be included in this Agreement or the relevant Transaction Document, but without invalidating any of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or that Transaction Document. The parties shall then use all reasonable endeavours to replace the invalid or unenforceable provisions by a valid and enforceable substitute provision the effect of which is as close as possible to the intended effect of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

(a) in the event of any Dispute, the Parties shall firstly endeavour to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis through direct negotiation;

(b) if one of the parties serves formal written notice on the others that a Dispute has arisen and the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute through direct negotiation in accordance with clause 28.2(a) within a period of twenty (20) Business Days from the service of such notice, then the process under clause 28.2(a) shall be deemed to have failed and the Dispute shall be referred to the respective chief executive officers of Invensys and ultimate holding company of the Purchaser, who shall consult and attempt to resolve the Dispute within the next following ten (10) Business Days;
