10.4		If the Executive is absent from work by reason of injuries sustained wholly or partly as a result of actionable negligence, nuisance or breach of any statutory duty on the part of any third party other than the Company or any Group Company, the Executive shall promptly inform the Executive’s line manager of that fact and the Company in its discretion may require the Executive to take all reasonable steps to recover from such third party or its insurers compensation including repayment of all sums paid to the Executive by the Company under this clause in respect of such absence (which shall be deemed to be paid by way of interest free loan by the Company, subject to any limit imposed under relevant legislation). Any such sums (which are paid to the Executive by the Company on that basis) shall in turn be repaid by the Executive when and to the extent that the Executive

		recovers compensation for loss of earnings from that third party or its insurers by legal action or otherwise less any reasonable costs incurred in recovering any such compensation.

21.7		All duties of the Employment (whether express or implied), including without limitation the Executive’s duties of fidelity, good faith and exclusive service, shall continue throughout the Garden Leave Period save as expressly varied by this clause 21.

22.		Termination

22.1		This Agreement and the Executive’s employment with the Company hereunder may be terminated immediately by the Company without prior notice if the Executive at any time:

	(a)		commits any act of gross misconduct or gross incompetence or other repudiatory breach of contract; or

	(b)		without reasonable excuse and with prior written warning, repeats or continues any misconduct or neglect in the discharge of the Executive’s duties or other breach of contract (not falling within 22.1(a) above); or

	(c)		has been adjudicated a bankrupt by a bankruptcy court; or

	(d)		is convicted of any criminal offence other than an offence which, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, does not affect the Executive’s position as an employee of the Company (bearing in mind the nature of the duties in which the Executive is engaged and the capacity in which the Executive is employed); or

	(e)		by the Executive’s actions or omissions, brings the name or reputation of the Company or any Group Company into serious disrepute or prejudices the interests of the business of the Company or any other Group Company.

		Any delay by the Company in exercising such right to termination shall not constitute a waiver thereof.

22.2		In the event of termination pursuant to clause 22.1, the Company shall not be obliged to make any further payment to the Executive beyond the amount of any remuneration and payment in lieu of outstanding untaken vacation entitlement actually accrued up to and including the date of such termination and the Company shall be entitled to deduct from such remuneration any sums owing to it or to any other Group Company (including but not limited to any advance of a cash float to cover business expenses, any advance of pay, vacation pay relating to vacation taken in excess of accrued entitlement) by the Executive to which deduction the Executive expressly hereby consents.

22.3		In the event of the termination of the Employment of the Executive for whatever reason and whether by notice or in any other manner whatsoever, the Executive agrees that the Executive will not at any time after such termination represent the Executive as still having any connection with the Company or any Group Company save as a former employee for the purpose of communicating with prospective employers or complying with any applicable statutory requirements.

22.4		In the event that the Executive is incapacitated by ill health, accident or any other cause from performing the Executive’s duties under this Agreement for a period of 26 weeks or more (whether consecutive or not) in any continuous period of 2 years, then the Company may terminate this Agreement by giving to the Executive six months notice, in writing

		expiring at any time (whether or not the Executive remains incapacitated from performing the Executive’s duties under this Agreement) provided always that the Executive shall receive all benefits lawfully due to the Executive under this Agreement calculated up to the date of termination of employment.

22.5		As an alternative to serving notice pursuant to clause 1.2 or 22.4 and without prejudice to the provisions of clauses 22.1 and 22.2, the Company may, in its absolute discretion, terminate this Agreement without prior notice and make a payment in lieu of the notice which the Executive would have been entitled during the period of notice of termination equal to the basic salary to which the Executive would have been entitled during the period of notice on the basis that the Executive’s basic salary would have been at the rate applying at the date of termination (less deductions for income tax and any other deductions the Company is required by law to make). Any payment by the Company in lieu of notice will be made as soon as practicable and, in any event, completed within 2.5 months following the later of the end of the calendar year or the Company fiscal year that occurs immediately following the Company’s exercise of its discretion to make such payment in lieu of the unexpired period of notice.

22.6		Once notice has been given, either by the Company or the Executive, the Company may, in its absolute discretion, at any time during such notice terminate this Agreement without prior notice and make a payment in lieu of such unexpired period of notice equal to the basic salary to which the Executive would have been entitled during the unexpired period of notice on the basis that the Executive’s basic salary would have been at the rate applying at the date of termination (less deductions for income tax and any other deductions the Company is required by law to make). Any payment by the Company in lieu of any unexpired period of notice will be made as soon as practicable and, in any event, completed within 2.5 months following the later of the end of the calendar year or the Company fiscal year that occurs immediately following the Company’s exercise of its discretion to make such payment in lieu of the unexpired period of notice.

22.7		The Company may, in its absolute discretion, for any period at any time and/or once notice of termination of employment has been given:

	(a)		exclude the Executive from any premises of the Company and/or of any Group Company; and/or

	(b)		require the Executive to carry out specified duties (consistent with the Executive’s skills, role and experience) or not to perform all or any of the Executive’s duties; and/or

	(c)		require the Executive to resign any directorship or other office of the Company and/or any Group Company which the Executive may hold without claim for compensation for loss of a directorship or other office; and/or

	(d)		require the Executive to absent the Executive from any meeting of directors or managers of the Company or any Group Company at which Confidential Information may be disclosed or discussed;

and the Executive agrees that such action by the Company shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement provided that throughout the period of any such action the Executive continues to receive his salary and contractual benefits (unless and until this Agreement shall be terminated).

22.8		As a condition to making the payments and providing the benefits stated in clause 21.5, or in clauses 22.5 or 22.6, the Company may require the Executive to execute and deliver a general release in which he (i) releases all claims that he may have in respect of his employment against any Group Company and any of their respective past or present officers, directors or employees other than his rights under clauses 21.5, 22.5 and 22.6 of this Agreement or another agreement into which he and the Company subsequently enter and (ii) covenants that he has not filed and will not file any civil action, suit, arbitration, administrative charge, or legal proceeding against any of the released parties in respect of the released claims.
