7.1	the Employee has not commenced employment and has not agreed to accept nor received any offer of employment from any person, firm or company, the expression "employment" for the purpose of this clause to include any contract of service, any contract for services, any partnership or agency agreement;

7.2

the Employee has not done or failed to do anything amounting to a repudiatory breach of the express or implied terms of the Employee's employment with the Company which if the matter had come to the Company's attention before the Termination Date would have entitled the Company to terminate the Employee's employment summarily or if it had been done or omitted after the date of this agreement would have constituted a breach of any of its terms;

7.3	there are no matters of which the Employee is aware relating to any act or omission by the Employee or by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Associated Companies which if disclosed to the Company would or might affect the Company's decision to enter into this agreement and which has not been disclosed to the Board; and

---

8.2	The Employee agrees and undertakes that he will:

(a)	work and co‑operate with (and will procure that his personal advisers work and corporate with) the Company's advisers in completing his UK self‑assessment return for the tax year 2017/18 (and, to the extent necessary, amending and re‑submitting any self‑assessment returns in respect of any earlier tax years); and

(b)

take all steps necessary to ensure that a refund of UK income tax for the tax year 2017/18 (and any earlier tax years, where relevant) is promptly obtained in respect of any taxes paid by the Employee in the US (to the extent such US taxes have been paid by or otherwise funded by the Company) in respect of 2017 and 2018 and that the amount of any such refund is in the maximum amount permitted by law (a "Refund"); and

(c)

take all steps necessary to ensure that any Refund (up to the amount of the US Tax Payment) is paid directly by HM Revenue & Customs to the Company into the following bank account: Barclays Bank London of Barclays Commercial Bank, Level 28, 1 Churchill Place, London, E14 5HP, UK, SWIFT CODE: BARCGB22 ; Account Number: 03401340 ; Sort Code: 20‑83‑69 and IBAN : GB10BARC20836903401340 in (whole or part) discharge of the US Tax Payment, provided always that if any such direct payment is not possible, the Employee further agrees and undertakes to pay to the Company (into the same bank account) an amount equal to any Refund received by him (up to the amount of the US Tax Payment) no later than 5 days after receipt of the same by the Employee.

8.3	In the event that the Refund is less than the US Tax Payment, the Company agrees that it shall not hold the Employee liable to pay the balance and undertakes to make a further lump sum tax gross‑up payment to the Employee (less any appropriate deductions for tax and national insurance) equal to the product of 0.69 multiplied by such outstanding balance.

The actual amount payable pursuant to this clause 8.4 will be subject to agreement between the Company and the Employee (and their respective advisers) following preparation of the Employee's US tax returns for 2018 (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Employee may retain any UK income tax credit or refund obtained as a result of the payment of the US tax liabilities in clause 8.4.

8.5

The Company and the Employee acknowledge and agree that the management bonus and the annual bonus referred to in clause 6 will be paid to the Employee less full deductions for national insurance/social security and UK income tax (disregarding, for the avoidance of doubt, the benefit of any foreign tax credits).

(b)	he is responsible for the preparation and submission of any personal tax filings (whether in the UK, the US or elsewhere in the world);
