7.4.1 applying the following specific accounting principles, bases, conventions, rules and estimation techniques:

a) Inventory shall be valued at Landed Cost, save that if any particular unit of Inventory is for any reason not immediately saleable at Completion, then any costs required to make such Inventory saleable shall be estimated in good faith and deducted from the Landed Cost of such Inventory;

b) all non-saleable, defective and slow-moving Inventory shall be valued at £nil;

14

c) any unit of Inventory comprising ASINs and SKUs no longer traded by the Business shall be valued at £nil; and

7.6 If the Sellers give notice that they have no proposed amendments to the Draft Actual Completion Statement, then the Draft Actual Completion Statement shall constitute the Actual Completion Statement for the purposes of this Agreement. If the Sellers give notice that they have proposed amendments to the Draft Actual Completion Statement, the Sellers shall within such notice inform the Buyer of their proposed amendments and the Sellers and the Buyer shall, within the period of 20 days after receipt of such notice, seek to agree the proposed amendments.

7.7 In the event of a failure by the Sellers to give written notice to the Buyer within the period referred to in clause ‎7.2, stating whether they agree with the Draft Actual Completion Statement, the Draft Actual Completion Statement shall be deemed to be the Actual Completion Statement for the purposes of this Agreement.

7.8 In the event of any dispute between the Sellers and the Buyer as to any matter relevant to the Draft Actual Completion Statement remaining unresolved at the expiry of the period referred to in clause 7.6, such failure or dispute shall be referred to the Expert. The Expert’s determination shall be limited to:

7.8.1 whether any errors have been made in the preparation of the Draft Actual Completion Statement or the documents, accounts or working papers used to determine the Adjustment Amount; and

7.8.2 any consequential adjustments, corrections or modifications that are required to the Draft Actual Completion Statement.

7.9 Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Expert shall be required to make its determination in writing (including the reasons for the determination) and to provide a copy to each party as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 30 days of its appointment. The Expert’s fees shall be paid by the Sellers and/or the Buyer in the proportions determined by the Expert and the Expert shall give due consideration to the conduct of the parties when making such determination. The Sellers and the Buyer shall procure that the Expert is given all such assistance and access to all such information in the Buyer’s or (as the case may be) the Sellers’ possession or control as such firm may reasonably require in order to determine the Actual Completion Statement. The Expert shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. Save in the event of manifest error or fraud the Expert’s determination shall be binding on the parties.

15

7.10 The following payments shall be made on or before the fifth Business Day following the date on which the Actual Completion Statement is agreed or determined in accordance with this clause 7:

7.10.1 if the Adjustment Amount as set out in the Actual Completion Statement exceeds the Estimated Adjustment Amount (the amount of such excess being the Excess), the Buyer shall pay the Reserved Estimated Adjustment Amount plus the amount of any Excess to the Sellers; or

7.10.2 if the Adjustment Amount as set out in the Actual Completion Statement is less than the Estimated Adjustment Amount (the amount of such shortfall being the Shortfall), then:

a) if the Shortfall is less than the Reserved Estimated Amount, the Buyer shall retain an amount equal to the Shortfall and will pay to the Seller an amount equal to the difference between the Reserved Estimated Adjustment Amount and the Shortfall, and

b) if the Shortfall is greater than the Reserved Estimated Amount, the Buyer shall retain the Reserved Estimated Adjustment Amount and the Sellers shall pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the difference between the Reserved Estimated Adjustment Amount and the Shortfall.

8 Deferred Payment and Set-off

8.1 From Completion, the Deferred Payment shall be held and released by the Buyer in accordance with the terms of this clause 8.

8.2 If on the Release Date:

8.2.1 a Due Amount (or any part of it) is outstanding, the Buyer shall be entitled (at its sole discretion) to satisfy all (to the extent possible) or part of the Sellers’ liability to pay the Due Amount by way of set-off against the Deferred Payment, and to treat its obligation to make the Deferred Payment as being reduced pro tanto by the amount so set off; and/or

8.2.2 there is an Outstanding Claim, the Buyer shall be entitled (at its sole discretion) to:

a) withhold from the Deferred Payment an amount equal to the Estimated Liability in respect of that Outstanding Claim or, if lower, the full amount of the Deferred Payment (the “Reserved Deferred Payment”); and

b) defer payment of the Reserved Deferred Payment until such time as the Outstanding Claim has become a Resolved Claim.

8.2.3 there is no Due Amount or any Outstanding Claim, the Buyer shall pay the Deferred Payment (or any part of the Deferred Payment remaining after the Sellers’ liability to pay any Due Amount in respect of any Resolved Claim has been satisfied prior to the Release Date by way of set-off against the Deferred Payment), in accordance with the Payment Instructions.

16

8.3 Where a Reserved Deferred Payment has been withheld by the Buyer pursuant to clause 8.2.2 in respect of an Outstanding Claim, on that claim becoming a Resolved Claim the Buyer shall:

8.3.1 be entitled (at its sole discretion) to satisfy all (to the extent the Reserved Deferred Payment is sufficient) or part of the Sellers’ liability to pay the Due Amount in respect of the relevant Resolved Claim by way of set-off against the corresponding Reserved Deferred Payment, and to treat its obligation to pay the Reserved Deferred Payment as being reduced pro tanto by the amount so set off; and

8.3.2 pay the remaining balance of the Deferred Payment (if any) after the Buyer has exercised its rights pursuant to clause 8.3.1 in accordance with the Payment Instructions. Such payment shall be made by the Buyer within 10 Business Days of the Outstanding Claim becoming a Resolved Claim.

8.4 Where the provisions of clause 8.2.2 apply, the Buyer and the Sellers shall use all reasonable endeavours to agree the Estimated Liability as soon as possible, and in any event, within the period of 10 Business Days following the Release Date. In the absence of such agreement, the following procedure shall apply:

8.4.1 The determination of the Estimated Liability and the prospects of success of any Outstanding Claim shall be referred to Counsel at the request of either the Buyer or the Sellers;

8.4.2 Counsel shall be requested to provide their determination of the Estimated Liability and the prospects of success of each Outstanding Claim referred to Counsel in accordance with clause 6.4.1 within 15 Business Days of accepting their appointment (or such other period as the Buyer and the Sellers may otherwise agree with Counsel);

8.4.3 In the event that Counsel advises that any Outstanding Claim does not have a reasonable prospect of success, the Estimated Liability in respect of such Outstanding Claim shall be zero;

8.4.4 Counsel shall act as an expert and not as arbitrator and their determination regarding the amount of the Estimated Liability shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding on all the parties; and

8.4.5 Counsel’s fees shall be borne by the Buyer and the Sellers equally or as Counsel may otherwise direct having regard to the respective conduct of the parties.

8.5 The amount of any Reserved Deferred Payment withheld by the Buyer in accordance with this clause 8 shall not be regarded as imposing any limit on the amount of any claims under this agreement or at law.

8.6 If a Due Amount is not satisfied in full by the Buyer exercising any of its other rights to set-off pursuant to the terms of this clause 8, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or otherwise restrict the Buyer’s right to recover the balance from the Sellers and the Due Amount (to the extent not so satisfied) shall remain fully enforceable against the Sellers.

4.8 If the auditors determine under paragraph 4.7 that an amount previously determined should be amended, that amended amount shall be substituted for the purposes of paragraph 4.1 or 4.4 as the relevant amount in respect of the determination in question in place of the amount originally determined, and such adjusting payment (if any) as may be required by virtue of such amendment shall be made as soon as practicable by the Sellers to the Buyer or by the Buyer to the Sellers (as the case may be).

5.1 If the Sellers have paid the Buyer in full in respect of a Covenant Claim or pursuant to a claim for breach of the Tax Warranties and the Company is (within seven years of Completion) entitled to recover from any third party (including a Tax Authority but excluding the Buyer, any member of the Buyer’s Tax Group and/or any current or former office holder, employee or customer of the Buyer, any member of the Buyer’s Tax Group or the Company) any sum in respect of the matter to which the payment made by the Sellers relates, then the Buyer shall or shall procure that the Company shall take such action as the Sellers may reasonably request in writing to enforce such recovery against the person in question PROVIDED THAT the following conditions are adhered to:

5.1.1 the Sellers agree to pay to the Buyer and the Company in cleared funds an amount equal to any costs and expenses (excluding recoverable VAT) which are reasonably incurred by the Buyer and/or the Company in taking such action and the Buyer may send a written demand for payment of such costs and expenses once they have been incurred; and

5.1.2 neither the Buyer nor the Company shall be obliged to take any action pursuant to this paragraph 5 if, in the Buyer’s reasonable opinion, the action requested by the Sellers may materially prejudice the commercial position or the Tax affairs or liabilities of any member of the Buyer’s Tax Group or the Company or their dealings with any Tax Authority.

5.2 The Buyer shall account to the Sellers for any sum so recovered (including any interest or repayment supplement paid by such person) less all costs (excluding recoverable VAT) and expenses of recovery to the extent not previously paid by the Sellers and after deducting any Tax chargeable on the Company in respect of the recovery in question (or which would have been so chargeable but for the use or set-off of any Relief), provided that the amount payable by the Buyer under this paragraph shall not exceed the amount paid by the Sellers in respect of the relevant Covenant Claim or pursuant to the Tax Warranties.

6 DISPUTES AND CONDUCT OF DEMAND

6.1 If the Buyer becomes aware of a Demand, the Buyer shall give written notice thereof to the Sellers within 10 Business Days and the Sellers shall give reasonable instructions to the Buyer in writing as to whether to resist, appeal, compromise or settle the Demand within 15 Business Days of receipt of such written instructions (or such later period as the parties may agree).

6.2 If the Sellers have given written instructions in accordance with paragraph 6.1, the Buyer shall and shall procure that the Company shall (except where fraudulent or negligent conduct is alleged by a Tax Authority) take such action as the Sellers may reasonably request by notice in writing given to the Buyer to avoid, dispute, defend, resist, appeal or compromise any Demand (such a Demand where action is so requested being a “Dispute”) provided that:

6.2.1 the Sellers have given security to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction against all liabilities, costs, damages or expenses that may be incurred (including any additional Liability for Tax) in taking such action;

6.2.2 the Sellers agree to pay to the Buyer and the Company in cleared funds an amount equal to any costs (excluding recoverable VAT), liabilities, damages or expenses incurred by the Buyer and/or the Company in taking such action and the Buyer may send a written demand for payment of such costs, liabilities, damages and expenses once they have been incurred;

67

6.2.3 neither the Buyer nor the Company shall be obliged to take any action pursuant to this paragraph 6 which would involve contesting a Dispute beyond the first appellate body (excluding the Tax Authority demanding the Tax in question) in the jurisdiction concerned unless Tax counsel of at least 10 years’ call instructed by agreement between the Buyer and the Sellers (at the expense of the Sellers) advises in writing that such appeal is, on the balance of probabilities, likely to succeed;

6.2.4 where the Tax liability which is the subject of the Dispute (the “Disputed Tax”) is required to be paid as a precondition to an appeal or before any other action requested by the Sellers may be taken, the Company shall not be obliged to take any such action until the Sellers shall have paid to the Buyer or the Company an amount equal to such Disputed Tax for the purpose of discharging the same; and

6.2.5 neither the Buyer nor the Company shall be obliged to take any action pursuant to this paragraph 6 if, in the Buyer’s reasonable opinion, the action requested by the Sellers may materially prejudice the commercial position or the Tax affairs or liabilities of any member of the Buyer’s Tax Group or the Company or their respective dealings with a Tax Authority.

6.3 The provisions of this paragraph 6 shall not apply or, if the provisions of this paragraph 6 already apply, the Sellers’ rights under this paragraph 6 shall cease to apply if:

6.3.1 either of the Sellers is declared bankrupt;

6.3.2 either of the Sellers is unable to pay debts as they fall due, starts negotiations with a creditor with a view to the general readjustment or rescheduling of indebtedness or makes a general assignment for the benefit of, or a composition with, creditors; or

6.3.3 a Tax Authority alleges fraudulent or negligent conduct or conduct involving dishonesty or deliberate default on the part of the Company or any person acting on its behalf in relation to the matter giving rise to the Demand.

6.4 The Buyer shall be free to satisfy or settle the relevant Demand on such terms as it may in its absolute discretion think fit if:

6.4.1 the Sellers do not request the Buyer to take any action in relation to the Demand in accordance with paragraph 6.1;

6.4.2 the Sellers do not request that any further action be taken in respect of the Demand by the Buyer or the Company within 15 Business Days of the Buyer seeking subsequent or additional instructions in writing from the Sellers;

6.4.3 the Sellers have not paid an amount in respect of costs, liabilities, damages and expenses pursuant to paragraph 6.2.2 within the required time for payment under paragraph 7.2.3;

6.4.4 the Sellers have not paid the Disputed Tax within 15 Business Days of a written demand; or

6.4.5 the provisions of paragraph 6.3 apply.

6.5 The compliance of the Buyer and/or the Company with the provisions of this paragraph 6 shall not be a condition precedent to the liability of the Sellers under this Tax Covenant or the Tax Warranties.

68

7.1 The amount of any liability pursuant to this Tax Covenant shall be as follows:

7.1.1 to the extent that the liability involves a liability of the Company to make an actual payment or increased payment of or in respect of Tax, the amount of such payment or increased payment;

7.1.2 to the extent that the liability involves the Loss of any Accounts Relief (other than a right to a repayment of Tax) the amount of Tax which the use of the Accounts Relief would have saved had the Accounts Relief been used by the Company in the period current at Completion (assuming that the Company then had sufficient profits and was otherwise in a position actually to use in full or in part the Accounts Relief);

7.1.3 to the extent that the liability involves a liability of the Company to make a payment or increased payment of Tax which would have arisen but for being satisfied, avoided or reduced by any Buyer’s Relief, the amount of such payment or increased payment of Tax which would otherwise have arisen; and

7.1.4 to the extent that the liability involves the disallowance or reduction by a Tax Authority of a right to a repayment of Tax, the amount of the repayment so disallowed or reduced.

7.2 Any amount which the Sellers are obliged to pay to the Buyer under this Tax Covenant shall be paid in cleared funds on or before the following dates:

7.2.1 in the case of a Liability for Tax which involves a liability to make an actual payment or increased payment of Tax or an amount in respect thereof, the later of 5 Business Days after the date on which the Buyer serves notice on the Sellers requesting payment and the latest date on which the Tax in question can be paid to a Tax Authority in order to avoid a liability to interest or penalties;

7.2.2 in the case of a Liability for Tax which involves a liability of the Company to make a payment or increased payment of Tax which would have arisen but for being satisfied, avoided or reduced by the use of a Buyer’s Relief, the date on which the Tax saved by the Company is or would have been required to be paid to the relevant Tax Authority; and

7.2.3 in any other case (including any payment due pursuant to paragraph 8 and any costs and expenses or other amounts incurred pursuant to paragraphs 2.1.10, 5.1 and 6.2.2), the fifth Business Day after service by the Buyer on the Sellers of a written demand for payment.

7.3 Any sum not paid on the due date for payment specified in this Tax Covenant (whether determined by agreement or pursuant to an order of a court or otherwise) shall bear interest from the date when such payment is due until the date of actual payment at a rate per annum of 4% above the base rate from time to time of Barclays Bank plc. Such interest shall be payable on the demand of the Buyer, shall accrue from day to day and be compounded quarterly.

69

8 DEDUCTIONS AND WITHHOLDINGS

8.1 All sums payable by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant or the Agreement shall be paid free and clear of all deductions or withholdings whatsoever save only as may be required by law (other than in respect of interest on late payments), in which event the Sellers shall pay such additional amounts as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received and retained by the recipient (after Tax) will equal the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such deduction or withholding.

8.2 If any sum payable by the Sellers under this Tax Covenant or the Agreement shall be subject to Tax in the hands of the recipient, the Sellers shall pay such additional amounts as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received and retained by the recipient (after Tax) will equal the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such Tax and, in applying this paragraph, no account shall be taken of the extent to which any such Tax may be mitigated or offset by any Buyer’s Relief available to the recipient so that where any such Buyer’s Relief is available the additional amount payable under this paragraph shall be the amount which would have been payable in the absence of such availability.

8.3 If the Buyer assigns the benefit of this Tax Covenant, the Sellers shall not be liable pursuant to this paragraph 8 save to the extent that the Sellers would have been so liable had no such assignment occurred.

9 MANAGEMENT OF PRE-COMPLETION TAX AFFAIRS

9.1.1 the Sellers shall provide the Buyer and the Company with such information and assistance as the Buyer or the Company may reasonably request in connection with:

a) any Tax returns relating to such accounting periods (including claims, elections, disclaimers, notices and consents related to such Tax returns);

b) dealing with and seeking to resolve queries raised by any Tax Authority in respect of such Tax returns and related documents (“Tax Documents”);

c) dealing with any other matter relating to the Tax compliance obligations of the Company in respect of such accounting periods or any Event occurring on or before Completion.

9.1.2 the Buyer shall, or shall procure that the Company shall, at the cost and expense of the Sellers, keep the Sellers informed of all material matters relating to the drafting, submission, negotiation and agreement of the Tax Documents to the extent such documents relate to the period of the Seller’s ownership of the Company, shall procure that the Sellers are afforded such access to the books, accounts and records of the Company to enable the Sellers to provide such information and assistance as is referred to in paragraph 9.1.1 above, and shall have due regard to any reasonable comments or amendments made by the Sellers to the Tax Documents in so far as they relate to any accounting period ending on or before Completion or, in respect of the accounting period in which Completion falls, the part of that accounting period which ends on Completion.

9.2 Where a Demand to which paragraph 6 applies has arisen, the provisions of paragraph 6 (and not this paragraph 9) shall apply in relation to any matter relating to such Demand.
