12.2 Scope of indemnity

The indemnity contained in clause 12.1 shall not apply to any Claims or Losses:

12.2.1 (otherwise than in connection with the matters referred to in clauses 12.1.1 to 12.1.4) to the extent finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen primarily out of the gross negligence, fraud or wilful default on the part of such Indemnified Person; or

12.2.2 comprising a decline in the market value of the New Ordinary Shares which is suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Person as a result of it having been required to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares pursuant to clause 3.2 unless such decline is caused by or results from or is attributable to or would not have arisen but for (in each case directly or indirectly) the negligence or default of the Company or any breach by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Agreements (or any of them) or any other agreement relating to the Offer (or any amendment or supplement to any of them), including without limitation a breach of the Warranties or any circumstance which constitutes such a breach.

PLATFORM: PLACING AGREEMENT

26

In any Claim, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel and assume the defence themselves, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Person unless:

(A) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel;

(B) representation of both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Persons by the same counsel (in the absolute discretion of the Indemnified Person) would be or becomes inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them;

(C) pursuant to this clause 12.3.2, the Indemnified Person has elected to assume the defence itself or the Indemnifying Person has failed to appoint counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; or

(D) the relevant Indemnified Person’s insurers confirm that rights under its policies of insurance may be prejudiced.

12.3.3 Each Indemnifying Person agrees that if it becomes aware of any Claim relevant for the purpose of this clause 12 or any matter which may give rise to any such Claim, it shall promptly notify the Placing Banks thereof and shall promptly provide the Placing Banks with such information and copies of such documents relating to such Claim as they may reasonably request.

12.4 Claims by the Company, the Founder Entities or the Directors

12.4.1 Each of the Company, the Founder Entities and the Directors agrees not to (and shall procure that none of its Affiliates nor any persons asserting claims on behalf of or in right of such person shall bring, make, threaten or allege any Claims against or otherwise involve any Indemnified Person to recover any Losses which the Company, the Founder Entities, or the Directors may suffer or incur (including, without limitation, all Losses which such person may incur in investigating, preparing for, disputing or defending, or providing evidence in connection with, any such Claims or Losses or in establishing any Claims or mitigating any Loss on its part) by reason of, or arising out of, directly or indirectly, attributable to, or in connection with, the carrying out or the performance by any Indemnified Persons, or on their behalf, of their obligations or services under or in connection with the Offer, Admission or the arrangements contemplated by the Offer Documents (or any of them) or the Transaction Agreements (or any of them) or any other agreement relating to the Offer (or any amendment or supplement to any of them) on, before or after the date of this Agreement unless and to the extent that such Claims or Losses (otherwise than in

PLATFORM: PLACING AGREEMENT

27

connection with the matters referred to in clauses 12.1.1 to 12.1.4 inclusive) are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen primarily out of the gross negligence, fraud or wilful default on the part of such Indemnified Person.

12.4.2 Notwithstanding any rights or claims which the Company, the Founders or any of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates or any of the directors, officers or employees of any of them may have or assert against a Placing Bank in connection with the Offer, Admission or the arrangements contemplated by the Offer Documents (or any of them) or the Transaction Agreements (or any of them) or any other agreement relating to the Offer (or any amendment or supplement to any of them), no claim will be brought by any such person against any director or any other officer or employee of any Indemnified Person in respect of any conduct, action or omission by the individual concerned in connection with the Offer, Admission or the arrangements contemplated by the Offer Documents (or any of them) or the Transaction Agreements (or any of them) or any other agreement relating to the Offer (or any amendment or supplement to any of them).

12.5 Settlement of claims

The Indemnifying Person agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the relevant Indemnified Person(s), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Agency, commenced, pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this clause 12 (whether or not the Indemnified Persons are actual or potential parties thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent:

12.5.1 includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim; and

12.5.2 does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

12.6 Proportionate liability

If an Indemnifying Person enters into any agreement or arrangement with any adviser or any other person for the purpose of or in connection with the Offer, the terms of which provide that the liability of the adviser or such other person to the Indemnifying Person or any other person, or the liability of any Indemnifying Person to any other person, is excluded or limited in any manner, and any Indemnified Person may have joint or joint and several liability with such adviser or such other person to the Indemnifying Person or to any other person arising out of the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Person shall:

12.6.1 not be entitled to recover any amount from an Indemnified Person in respect of any Loss suffered by an Indemnifying Person, in excess of the proportion of such Loss equal to the proportion of that Indemnified Person’s contribution to the overall fault for such Loss, as agreed between the relevant parties or, in the absence of agreement, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction and in any such event (but without prejudice to the foregoing) the Indemnifying Person shall not be entitled to recover more from an Indemnified Person than would have been recoverable had such agreement or arrangement not been entered into;

PLATFORM: PLACING AGREEMENT

28

12.6.2 indemnify the Indemnified Person in respect of any increased liability to any third party which would not have arisen in the absence of such exclusion or limitation; and

12.6.3 take such other action as the Indemnified Person may require to ensure that the Indemnified Person is not prejudiced as a consequence of such agreement or arrangement.

12.7 Regulatory obligations

Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or restrict any duty or liability of any Indemnified Person which it has under FSMA or under the regulatory system (as defined in the FCA Handbook) to the extent such exclusion or restriction is prohibited by the FCA Handbook. The parties agree that the terms of this Agreement, including this clause 12, are reasonable, honest, fair and professional.

12.8 Enforceability

Without prejudice to the generality of clause 16.9, each of the sub-clauses in this clause 12 and each of the exclusions of liability and indemnities within those sub-clauses is and shall be construed as separate and severable and in the event that any such sub-clause, exclusion of liability or indemnity is determined by any court to be unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, such unenforceability shall not affect or impair the enforceability of the other sub-clauses or the remainder of any sub-clause as appropriate and any such other sub-clauses or parts thereof, as appropriate, shall continue to bind the parties.

12.9 Rights in addition to others

The indemnities contained in this clause 12 are in addition to any rights which any Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise, including but not limited to any right of contribution and the provisions of this clause 12 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the completion of all matters and arrangements referred to in or contemplated by this Agreement or any termination of this Agreement.

12.10 Discretion of Indemnified Persons

Each of the Placing Banks shall have an absolute discretion whether or not to exercise or enforce any right under this Agreement, shall be free to deal with its rights under this Agreement without regard to the interests of any Indemnified Person and shall not be required to account to any Indemnified Person in respect of any amount which it receives under this Agreement and shall not be liable to any Indemnified Person for any loss arising from any act or omission with respect to this Agreement.

12.11 Discretion of Indemnifying Persons

Each of the Placing Banks shall be entitled to take, in their absolute discretion, any and all steps (including, without limitation, instituting proceedings) against each of the Indemnifying Persons in relation to any Claims and Losses which may arise under this Agreement.

PLATFORM: PLACING AGREEMENT

29

12.12 Unavailability or inadequacy of indemnities

In the event that the indemnity provided in clause 12.1 is unavailable, or insufficient, to hold harmless an Indemnified Person in respect of any Claims or Losses (save where no amounts would have been payable in any case in respect of such Claims or Losses by virtue of clause 12.2), in either such case as a result of any rule of law or other limit on their validity or effectiveness (other than a limit provided in this Agreement) then in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, each Indemnifying Person shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such Claims or Losses incurred or suffered by any such Indemnified Person, as incurred:

12.12.1 in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits (as described in clause 12.13) received from the Offer by the Company on the one hand, and each of the Placing Banks on the other hand; or

12.12.2 if the allocation provided by clause 12.12.1 is not permitted by any applicable law or regulation, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 12.12.1 but also the relative fault (as described in clause 12.14) of the Company on the one hand, and each of the Placing Banks on the other hand, in connection with any of the acts or statements or omissions which resulted in such Claims or Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

12.13 Benefits received

The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand, and each of the Placing Banks on the other hand, from the Offer, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total gross proceeds from the Offer (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total commissions received by the Placing Banks bear to the total gross proceeds from the Offer.

12.14 Determination of fault

The relative fault of the Company on the one hand, and each of the Placing Banks on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in the Offer Documents or any omission or alleged omission from the Offer Documents relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand, or any of the Placing Banks on the other hand, and by the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the publication of such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission.

12.15 Obligation to contribute

The Company agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to clause 12.12 to clause 12.18 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Placing Banks were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in clauses 12.12 to clause 12.18. The aggregate amount of any Claims or Losses incurred by an Indemnified Person shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in investigating, preparing for, defending, or providing evidence in connection with any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Agency, commenced or threatened, or any Claim or Loss which arise, directly or indirectly, out of or are attributable to or connected with anything done or omitted to be done by any person (including by the relevant Indemnified Person) in connection with the Offer, Admission or the arrangements contemplated by the Offer Documents, or any of them (or any amendment or supplement to any of them), or this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the Offer (or any amendment or supplement to any of them), including but not limited to those based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

12.16 Limit on contribution

For the purposes of clauses 12.12 to clause 12.18, each Indemnified Person shall have the same rights to contribution as each of the Placing Banks.

12.19.2 Save as provided in this clause 12.19, Indemnified Persons other than the relevant Placing Bank will not be entitled directly to enforce their rights against the Company under this Agreement under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000 or otherwise.

12.20.2 Taxation incurred by an Indemnified Person on its net income, profit or gain; and/or

12.20.3 recoverable VAT.
