19

another person except that the Guarantors’ obligations under this clause 11 shall not apply in relation to a breach by the Seller of this agreement that the Buyer has expressly waived in writing;

11.5.2  any legal limitation, disability, incapacity or other circumstances relating to the Seller or another person;

12 Announcements

12.1 None of the parties to this agreement shall make or authorise any announcement or issue any circular concerning the subject matter of this agreement without the consent of the other parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) save:

12.1.1  as provided by the Employment Regulations in relation to any consultation with employees of the Seller;

12.1.2  nothing herein shall prevent any of the parties from making such announcements and issuing such circulars and notices as may be required by law or in order for it to comply with the rules and regulations of any recognised stock exchange or relevant regulatory body in any jurisdiction provided that the party making the announcement or issuing the circular or notice shall, so far as practicable, first have consulted with the other parties

13.1.2  the Seller may assign or transfer the benefit of this agreement (or any part hereof) including, without limitation, the Warranties and any document referred to in it (together with any cause of action arising in connection with any of them) to any member of the Seller’s Group without consent upon prior written notice to Buyer.

13.2 Any transferee of this agreement shall be required to assume in writing all of the obligations associated with such transfer and the assignor shall undertake to the other party hereto to procure the re-assignment to such assignor of such benefit upon the assignee ceasing to be a member of the Buyer’s Group or Seller’s Group, as applicable.

Each of the parties shall respectively bear all legal and other costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with this agreement and the sale of the Business.

21

15 VAT

15.1 The parties intend and shall use all reasonable endeavours to secure that the completion of the sale of the Business and Assets under this agreement shall constitute a sale of a business for the purposes of Section 3(5)(b)(iii) and 5(8) VATA, and accordingly shall be treated as neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services such that no VAT will be chargeable in respect of the sale and purchase herein agreed. However, if the Completion of the sale of the Assets under this Agreement is treated as a supply of goods or services for the purposes of VAT, the Buyer shall be liable to pay to the Seller VAT on the Consideration upon production of a valid VAT invoice.

15.2 The Buyer warrants to the Seller that they are at the date hereof and will continue to be until and immediately after Completion duly registered for the purposes of VAT.

15.3 If the Revenue Commissioners have before Completion indicated that the sale of the Business cannot be treated in the manner contemplated by clause 15.1 the Buyer shall on Completion (against production of appropriate VAT invoices in respect thereof and in addition to any amounts expressed in this agreement to be payable by the Buyer) promptly pay the amount of any VAT which may be chargeable on the sale of the Business and of the relevant Assets. If no such indication is given before Completion no amount in respect of VAT shall be paid by the Buyer on Completion but, if the Revenue Commissioners finally determine VAT to be payable in respect of the supply of the Assets of the Business under this agreement the Seller shall notify the Buyer of that determination and the Buyer shall (unless it exercises its rights under the following provisions of this clause 15) pay to the Seller such VAT within 12 days of receipt of a valid VAT invoice in respect of the supply for VAT purposes.

15.4 If the Buyer disagrees with the determination of the Revenue Commissioners it may, within seven days of being notified of such decision by the Seller notify the Seller that it requires the Seller to obtain a review of the decision by the Revenue Commissioners and the Seller shall immediately request the Revenue Commissioners to undertake that review provided that the Buyer indemnifies and secures the Seller to its reasonable satisfaction against all reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including Tax) which the Seller may incur.

15.5 The Seller shall notify the Buyer on receipt of the decision of the Revenue Commissioners and if the Buyer disagrees with the decision it may give notice to the Seller that it requires the Seller to make all such appeals against the decision as, and in such manner as, the Buyer shall reasonably request from time to time and the Seller shall promptly comply with any such request by the Buyer provided that the Buyer indemnifies and secures the Seller to its reasonable satisfaction against all reasonable costs, charges and expenses (including Tax) which the Seller may incur in connection with such appeals.

22

15.6 Within 14 days of the decision of the Revenue Commissioners referred to above or, if a further appeal has been made, within 14 days of the decision of the court or tribunal to which the final such appeal has been made:

15.6.1  the Buyer shall pay to the Seller by way of additional consideration a sum equal to the amount of VAT that has been determined to be properly payable in respect of the supply (against delivery by the Seller of an appropriate VAT invoice) after deducting from it any amount previously paid in respect of such VAT by the Buyer to the Seller; or

15.6.2  if an amount previously paid by the Buyer to the Seller in respect of VAT exceeds the VAT that is finally determined to be payable the Seller shall pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the excess and deliver to the Buyer an appropriate tax credit invoice for VAT purposes; and

15.6.3  the Seller will on Completion deliver to the Buyer such of the records referred to in Section 16 of VATA as relate exclusively to the Business.

16 Further assurance

16.1 The Seller shall (or shall procure that a member of the Seller’s Group shall) from time to time, on being reasonably required to do so by the Buyer, now or at any time in the future, at the expense of the Seller do or procure the carrying out of all such acts and/or execute or procure the execution of all such documents in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer as the Buyer may reasonably consider necessary for giving full effect to this agreement and securing to the Buyer the full benefit of the rights, powers and remedies confirmed upon the Buyer in this agreement.

16.2 Without limiting clause 16.1, the Seller shall, if so requested by the Buyer, assign to the Buyer such manufacturers’ or suppliers’ guarantees and warranties relating to the Assets as may be in force at the Transfer Time insofar as the same are capable of assignment and the benefit of all other claims against third parties relating to any of the Assets to the extent they relate to the period from the Transfer Time (including, without limitation, any claim for breach of warranty or representation). To the extent that the same are not capable of assignment the Seller shall hold the benefit thereof on trust for the Buyer and shall take such action in relation thereto as the Buyer may from time to time direct.

16.3 The Buyer and Seller will use their good faith efforts and cooperate as reasonably requested to cause the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder, and to execute and deliver the documents, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

Appendix A

The lifetime value in Seller’s Warranty 5.8 is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

The table LongTermValueCustomers contains both sterling and euro paying customers who have terminated their membership in 2004 before 1st July 2004 and whose period of days as an eDiets customer exceeds 7 full days i.e. the period between the date of enrollment and the date of termination of membership exceeds 7 full days total number of customer days (2504399) (give me the total number of full customer days from the table defined above)

select sum(DATEDIFF(day, enrolldate,paidthru)) from LongTermValueCustomers

(give me the total number of customer from the table defined above)

total number of customers (16086)

select count(*) from LongTermValueCustomers

average (2504399) / (16086) /30 (30 days per month) =5.189

sum sterling revenue 852924.1000

(give me the sum of customer revenue in sterling from the table defined above)

select sum(sterlingrevenue) from LongTermValueCustomers

sum euro revenue 37243.9000 (sterling conversion .66 = 24580.974)

(give me the sum of customer revenue in euros from the table defined above)

select sum(eurorevenue) from LongTermValueCustomers

total sterling = 852924.1000 + 24580.974= 877505.074
