2.1 | Each Seller’s Warranty (other than the Core Seller’s Warranties) shall be limited to the awareness of the Seller as if the words “so far as the Seller is aware” were inserted before each statement in each of such Seller’s Warranties. |
2.2 | Without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement (including this schedule 4), in respect of each Relevant Claim following Completion (other than a claim for a breach of a Core Seller’s Warranty), the Seller’s liability in respect of such Relevant Claim following Completion shall be limited to an amount equal to 60% of the loss suffered by the Group as a result of the matter giving rise to the Relevant Claim. |
2.3 | In this schedule 4 a Relevant Claim shall only include a claim for breach of a Core Seller’s Warranty where such term is used in paragraphs of 2, 3, 4 and 10 of this schedule 4 unless otherwise stated. |
3.1 | The Seller shall not be liable in respect of a Relevant Claim unless it has been given notice in writing by or on behalf of the Buyer of the existence of such Relevant Claim together with reasonable details of such Relevant Claim: |
| (a) | where such Relevant Claim arises out of a breach of a Non-Core Seller’s Warranty, on or before May 31, 2012; and |
| (b) | for any other Relevant Claim, on or before the date which is two years from the date of Completion. |
3.2 | A Relevant Claim shall be deemed to be withdrawn (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) unless legal proceedings in respect thereof have been commenced within six months of the giving of notice of the Relevant Claim under the preceding paragraph and for this purpose such legal proceedings shall not be deemed to have commenced unless both issued and served in accordance with this Agreement. |
4.1 | Subject to paragraph 4.2 of this schedule 4, the maximum aggregate liability of the Seller for all Relevant Claims against it shall not exceed the amount of the Purchase Price. |
4.2 | The maximum aggregate liability of the Seller for all Relevant Claims arising out of breaches of the Non-Core Seller’s Warranties against it shall be limited to the Buyer’s recourse following Completion to the Cash Entitlement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer’s sole recourse for any such breach shall be to the Cash Entitlement. In no circumstances shall the Seller or eSun be liable in respect of any such breach to make any payment to the Buyer from the Seller’s or eSun’s own cash resources. In the event the amount of any loss arising out of breaches of the Non-Core Seller’s Warranties exceeds the amount of the Cash Entitlement (theExcess), the Buyer agrees and acknowledges that neither the Seller nor eSun shall be under any obligation or liability to pay the Excess to the Buyer and the Buyer undertakes not to seek to recover any of such losses from the Seller or eSun. |
page 43
5.1 | Subject to paragraph 5.2 of this schedule 4, the Seller shall not be liable in respect of a Relevant Claim: |
| (a) | unless the amount that would otherwise be recoverable from the Seller (but for this paragraph 5.1(a)) in respect of such Relevant Claim exceeds US$50,000; and |
| (b) | unless and until the amount that would otherwise be recoverable from the Seller (but for this paragraph 5.1(b)) in respect of such Relevant Claim, when aggregated with any other amount or amounts recoverable in respect of other Relevant Claims (excluding any amounts in respect of a Relevant Claim for which the Seller has no liability because of paragraph 5.1(a) of this schedule 4) exceeds US$500,000 (the Threshold), and in the event that the aggregate amounts exceed the Threshold, the Seller shall be liable for the whole of such aggregate amount and not merely for the amount in excess of the Threshold. |
5.2 | This paragraph 5 shall not apply to a Relevant Claim in relation to a breach of any term of this Agreement other than a Seller’s Warranty. |
Save for clause 4.2, the Seller shall not be liable for a Relevant Claim to the extent that the fact, matter, event or circumstance giving rise to such Relevant Claim is remediable and is remedied by or at the expense of the Seller to the reasonable satisfaction of the Buyer within 10 Business Days of the date on which notice of the existence of such Relevant Claim is given to the Seller under paragraph 3.1 of this schedule 4.
The Seller shall not be liable in respect of a Relevant Claim:
7.1 | to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Relevant Claim in the case of a Relevant Claim for breach of a Seller’s Warranty would not have arisen but for: |
| (a) | an Event after Completion by, at the direction of or involving a Buyer’s Group Undertaking or a director, employee or agent of a Buyer’s Group Undertaking other than an Event in the ordinary course of business of a Buyer’s Group Undertaking; or |
page 44
| (b) | the passing of, or a change in, a law, rule, regulation, interpretation of the law or administrative practice of a government, governmental department, agency or regulatory body after the date of this Agreement or an increase in the Tax rates or an imposition of Tax, in each case not actually or prospectively in force at the date of this Agreement; |
7.2 | to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Relevant Claim arises wholly or partially from an Event before or after Completion at the request or direction of, or with the written acquiescence or consent of, a Buyer’s Group Undertaking (which for these purposes includes a Group Company only after Completion) or an authorized agent or adviser of a Buyer’s Group Undertaking; |
7.3 | to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Relevant Claim relates to an amount for which any Group Company has a right of recovery against, or an indemnity from, a person other than a Seller’s Group Company, whether under a provision of applicable law, insurance policy or otherwise howsoever; and |
7.4 | to the extent that the matter giving rise to the Relevant Claim relates to matters specifically provided for or referred to in the Accounts. |
If the same fact, matter, event or circumstance gives rise to more than one Relevant Claim, the Buyer shall not be entitled to recover more than once in respect of such fact, matter, event or circumstance.
To the extent that a Relevant Claim is based upon a liability of a Group Company which is a contingent liability, the Seller shall not be liable to make a payment to the Buyer in respect thereof unless and until such time as the contingent liability becomes an actual liability of a Group Company to make a payment. This paragraph 9 is without prejudice to the obligation of the Buyer to notify the Seller of the Relevant Claim and to issue and serve proceedings in respect thereof in accordance with paragraph 3.1 of this schedule 4.
Nothing in this schedule 4 restricts or limits the Buyer’s general obligation at law to mitigate any loss or damage which it may incur in consequence of a matter giving rise to a Relevant Claim.
11 | Preservation of information |
The Buyer shall, and shall ensure that each Group Company will, preserve all documents, records, correspondence, accounts and other information whatsoever relevant to a matter which may give rise to a Relevant Claim.
page 45
12.1 | Subject to paragraph 12.2 of this schedule 4, no Relevant Claim shall be made or capable of being made to the extent that the losses in respect of such claim may be recovered under one or more policies of insurance in force from time to time. |
12.2 | This paragraph 12 shall not apply to a Relevant Claim in relation to a breach of any term of this Agreement other than a Seller’s Warranty. |
The Seller’s Non-Core Warranties are qualified by:
