Any such Tax Benefit shall be calculated on the basis of a fixed tax rate of 25 % for all income Taxes assuming a period of 10 years in which a Tax Benefit shall be deemed to be available unless a shorter useful life applies for tax purposes and using an interest rate of 8 %.

 

11.1.6 Each such claim of the Purchasers against Seller 1 for payment of indemnifiable Taxes is due and payable fifteen Business Days after Seller 1 has been notified by the respective Purchasers in writing about the payment obligation. Any potential objections or other legal proceedings against a Tax assessment or Tax payment obligation shall not entitle Seller 1 to delay any indemnification payment or action to hold harmless unless the Tax authorities have granted stay of execution.

The respective Purchasers shall notify Seller 1 in writing of the receipt of any Tax Refund or the relevant decision by the Tax Authority resulting in a Tax Refund. Any amount payable to Seller 1 pursuant to this Section 11.1.7 shall be due and payable within fifteen Business Days after the Tax Refund has been received by the Purchasers or the respective Movianto Company or in the event that the Tax Refund is granted by way of set-off against Taxes allocable to periods after the Effective Date, after the respective Taxes which are reduced by the set-off have become or would have become due. The Tax Refund is payable to Seller 1 on the Sellers’ Account. For the avoidance of doubt this clause shall only apply to Tax Refunds which have not been recorded in the Annual Financial Statements.

The Purchasers shall be entitled to make such changes as are legally required or are in the best interest of the relevant Movianto Company, and shall give the Sellers the opportunity to review and comment within a time period of 10 Business Days. The Purchasers shall take into account valid comments made by the Sellers; if after 10 Business Days no comments have been received by the Seller, the amended version of the relevant Tax Return is deemed to be agreed. The Purchasers shall procure that the relevant Movianto Company files the Tax Return.

 

11.1.11 The Purchasers and the Sellers shall fully cooperate with each other with respect to any Tax matter relating to any Tax assessment period ending on or before the Closing Date and shall in particular give or cause to be given to each other, upon request, and each at their own expense, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance, including the right to examine and copy books and records, documents or other materials including relevant working papers, relating to the Movianto Companies as is necessary for the filing of any Tax Return and for the preparation of any Tax audit, including making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanations of any material hereunder.

 

11.1.12 To the extent that the facts and circumstances giving rise to indemnifiable Taxes also give rise to a claim under the Sellers’ Guarantees pursuant to Section 7, claims under this Section 11 shall be made in priority to claims under the Sellers’ Guarantees. Any limitation under Section 10 does not apply to claims under this Section 11.

 

11.1.13 Claims pursuant to this Section 11 shall become time-barred six months after the date upon which the assessment of the respective Taxes becomes finally binding and non-appealable (bestandskräftig) and can no more be changed by the Tax Authority.

15.2.3 In addition to Purchasers’ obligations under Section 15.2.1, the Purchasers shall, with effect as of the Closing Date, indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers and their Affiliates from any obligations and liabilities to any third party arising under or in connection with such Collateral and all damages and losses actually suffered in connection therewith.

 

16. NON-COMPETE AND NON-SOLICITATION

 

16.1 Non-compete

 

16.1.1 For a period of twenty-four (24) months from the Closing Date, Seller 1 shall not, and Seller 1 shall procure that no Seller or Sellers’ Affiliate shall, provided that and for so long as they are controlled by Seller 1, directly or indirectly engage in the Restricted Business in the countries listed on Exhibit 16.1.1 (“Territories”).

 

16.1.2 For the purposes of this Section 16.1, “Restricted Business” means the business of providing logistics services (including, but not limited to, warehousing, transportation and/or related value added services) to healthcare product manufacturers on a (fixed or variable) fee per performed activity basis as conducted by the Movianto Companies with their respective customers (as listed in Exhibit 16.1.2; collectively, “Movianto Customers”) as of 23 July, 2012.

 

57


16.1.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following activities shall be exempt from the covenant not to compete:

 

  (i) any activities (including future extensions thereof) constituting Restricted Business that is conducted by the Sellers and their Affiliates as of the Closing Date (“Celesio’s Existing Competing Activities”), it being understood that in case if any of the Sellers and/or any of their Affiliates have started negotiations with manufacturers to enter into a contractual agreement on the provision of services constituting Restricted Business before the Closing Date, such agreements, if they come into effect, will be deemed to be Celesio’s Existing Competing Activities;

 

  (ii) to the extent conducted with manufacturers who are part of Celesio’s Existing Competing Activities any (future) activities reasonably complementary or ancillary to Celesio’s Existing Competing Activities;

 

  (iii) any future activities constituting Restricted Business to the extent these activities are engaged in as a response to

 

  (a) changes in laws or regulations which would (i) require the Seller 1 or the Seller 1’s Affiliates to engage in such activities in order to be in compliance with such laws or regulations, or (ii) enable the Seller 1 or the Seller 1’s Affiliates to engage in such activities and it being reasonably expected that any of the Seller 1 or the Seller 1’s Affiliates’ competitors would do so, in each case provided, however, that this shall be limited to the jurisdiction where such laws or regulations are applicable; or

 

  (b) material changes in the overall market environment in those markets in which Seller 1 conducted any business activities at the time of Closing (“Celesio’s Existing Business”) which reasonably require the Sellers or the Sellers’ Affiliates to engage in such activities in order to remain competitive; or

 

  (c) offers, requests or requirements (including, without limitation, tender processes) by any manufacturer to which a major competitor of the Sellers or of Sellers’ Affiliates would as a matter of good business judgment respond by engaging in such activities;

 

  (iv)

the acquisition of a non-controlling interest in an entity or group which is not primarily engaged in the Restricted Business; it being understood that if the

 

58


  gross margin (or gross profit) of the Restricted Business in the latest twelve months preceding the acquisition did exceed 50% of the aggregate gross margin (or gross profit) of the entity or group acquired, such entity or group acquired shall be deemed to be primarily engaged in the Restricted Business; or

 

  (v) the acquisition of a controlling interest in an entity or group which is not primarily engaged in the Restricted Business, provided that the gross margin (or gross profit) of the Restricted Business in the latest twelve months preceding the acquisition did not exceed (i) 20% of the aggregate gross margin (or gross profit) of the entity or group acquired or (ii) 50% of the aggregate gross margin (or gross profit) of the Movianto Companies;

provided that, none of the activities described in subsections (i) through (v) above that compete with the Restricted Business may be conducted by any Seller or any Sellers’ Affiliate for or in respect of any existing Movianto Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, the continuation or entry into a typical (as defined at the time of Closing) wholesaling supplier relationship (which is the principal business of Seller 1) with any of these Movianto Customers does not constitute a violation of this provision.

 

16.2 Non-solicitation

For a period of three years from the Closing Date, Seller 1 shall not, and Seller 1 shall procure that no Seller or Sellers’ Affiliate shall solicit for employment of any Key Employee other than Key Employees who (i) have been given notice of termination of their employment by the respective Movianto Company after the Closing Date, (ii) have given notice of termination of their employment or agreed to terminate their employment with the respective Movianto Company without any inducement by the Sellers or the Sellers’ Affiliates, or (iii) seek for employment with any of the Sellers or the Sellers’ Affiliates as a result of general advertising or otherwise upon their own initiative.

 

17. FUTURE CO-OPERATION

Seller 1 and the Purchasers’ Guarantor have already before the Transaction initiated non-binding and preliminary discussions about different ways of future cooperation. These discussions will be continued if deemed to be appropriate by the Parties. Seller 1 is the natural Pan-European partner for the Movianto Companies providing last-mile distribution services. Further topics to be discussed could be, among others, combined models, joint entry into new markets as well as emergency distribution models. Cooperation between Seller 1, the Purchasers and Purchasers’ Guarantor not involving Movianto Companies could entail joint sourcing and pharmaceutical distribution to the Purchasers and the Purchasers’ Guarantor’s customers. Any obligation between Seller 1, the Purchasers and the Purchasers’ Guarantor under this Section 17 is subject to contract.

 

59


18. ANNOUNCEMENTS, CONFIDENTIALITY AND OTHER BUSINESS MATTERS

18.2.3 Seller 1 shall procure that promptly after the date of signing of this Agreement it or its Affiliates shall request each person to whom information in relation to the Movianto Companies was provided in connection with the process conducted for the Transaction to return or destroy such information. Seller 1 hereby assigns all of its right and interests in all confidentiality undertakings exchanged with any such persons to the Purchasers and undertakes to notify such persons of such assignment together with the demand that the person return or destroy all the information provided on the Movianto Companies.

 

60

The Purchasers will further procure that the Movianto Companies will grant the Sellers for a period of 12 months after Closing access to the Movianto Companies’ books and financial data pertaining to financial periods prior to the Closing Date as may be reasonably required by the Sellers from time to time. The Sellers shall provide the Purchasers all such assistance as may be reasonably required in connection with any legal or tax matters which relate to the period pre-Closing for a period of 12 months after Closing.

that in case of share transfers in a German limited liability company (GmbH), legal actions of the transferor vis-à-vis the company or vice versa with regard to the company that are taken prior to the recording of the amended list of shareholders in the commercial register may be deemed to be effective against the transferee;

 

 

of the potential consequences of a list of shareholders that is incorrect in substance, and in particular the possibility and legal requirements of a bona fide acquisition of shares from a person who is listed in the list of shareholders, but does not hold ownership in the relevant share or shares;

 

 

of the notary’s duty to provide information under sec. 54 German Income Tax Implementation Regulation (EStDV);

 

 

that the parties will be jointly and severally liable for the costs of this deed.
