Any exercise by the Buyer of the right of setoff in accordance with Clause 10.8 against a payment owing to the Seller hereunder, shall not, pending resolution of the matter resulting in such set-off, constitute a breach or a failure to pay by the Buyer.
9.1.3		None of the limitations or exclusions set forth in this Clause 9 shall apply if the Seller is guilty of fraud (including Clauses 30 and 33 set forth in the Swedish Contract Act (Sw. Lag (1915:218) om avtal och andra rättshandlingar på förmögenhetsrättens område), inter alia, if the Seller has wilfully or with gross negligence withheld or failed to disclose a material fact necessary in order to make a Warranty true and correct and not misleading.
9.2		No other Warranties
9.2.1		The Warranties are the only warranties given by the Seller in relation to the Shares and the Group Companies. The Warranties do not release the Buyer from its duty to carry out a prudent investigation of the state of affairs of the Group Companies. The Buyer may not rely, and has not relied, on any other information, statement or warranty (express or implied), whether based on the Sale of Goods Act, any other Applicable Law or otherwise.
9.2.2		In relation to matters relating to Tax, the warranties in Clause 6.6 are the only warranties governing such matters.

9.2.3		The Seller has not made any warranty (expressed or implied) as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Group Companies, furnished or made available to the Buyer, its Affiliates and its advisors, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Seller nor any other Person shall have or be subject to any liability to the Buyer resulting from the distribution to the Buyer, or the Buyer’s use of, any such information.
9.3		Remedies
9.3.1		The Buyer’s sole remedies for a breach by the Seller of this Agreement is:

	(a)		compensation in accordance with Clause 9.1.1; and

		Such remedies shall be exclusive and, consequently, no other remedy, including the right to rescind this Agreement, shall be available to the Buyer in the event of the Seller’s breach of this Agreement, whether under the Sale of Goods Act or otherwise.
9.3.2		Instead of compensating the Buyer in accordance with Clause 9.1.1, the Seller shall have the right to, if the subject matter of the claim is capable of being remedied, remedy the subject of a claim for compensation, provided that the Seller (i) within 20 Business Days after receipt of a notice in accordance with Clause 9.5 gives the Buyer notice that it will exercise its right to remedy such subject matter of the claim, (ii) to the extent such subject matter of the claim has not been remedied within three (3) months from such notice, shall compensate the Buyer in accordance with Clause 9.1.1 for any remaining Loss, and (iii) to the extent the Buyer despite the Seller’s remedy of the subject of the claim has suffered a Loss, shall compensate the Buyer in accordance with Clause 9.1.1 for any remaining Loss.
9.4		Limitations
9.4.1		The Seller shall not be liable to compensate the Buyer for any Losses:

	(a)		that are due to loss of synergies, loss of other similar profits, revenues or advantages that the Buyer or its Affiliates had expected to make or obtain, or losses relating to liabilities or costs incurred or profits or revenues lost, under the Buyer’s or its Affiliates’ existing contracts or under contracts that the Buyer or its Affiliates expects to, or will enter into with third parties, or other losses that are difficult to foresee for the Seller;
	(b)		that are actually recovered by the Buyer or its Affiliates from any third party, or for which the Buyer or its Affiliates otherwise receives compensation, including any amount that is actually recovered under a policy of insurance held by the Buyer or its Affiliates, or which would have been recoverable if the Buyer or its Affiliates had maintained in force insurance protection no less favourable than that maintained by the Group Companies as per the Closing Date; provided, however, that all costs and expenses related to recovering such Loss from a third party, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and other legal costs and

			expenses, and any premium costs related to any applicable insurance policy, shall be Losses for which the Seller shall liable hereunder unless and to the extent such costs and expenses are recovered in full from a third party;
	(c)		to the extent that the fact, matter, occurrence or event giving rise to the breach:

	(i)		has been disclosed in this Agreement (including the Disclosure Schedule and other schedules);
	(ii)		has been included in the Data Room Documents or in other information received by the Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their advisors during its due diligence review in relation to the Group Companies; or
	(iii)		was otherwise known by the Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their advisors prior to or on the Signing Date,
			provided, in respect of each of (i)-(iii), that the Buyer could reasonably be expected to conclude prior to the Signing Date that such fact, matter, occurrence or event constituted a breach of the Warranties.

	(d)		that occur as a result of any Applicable Law not in force on the Signing Date (or any alteration or repeal of any Applicable Law in force on the Signing Date), or that takes effect retroactively, or occurs as a result of any increase in the tax rate in force on the Signing Date or any change in the practices of the relevant governmental authority or courts (including but not limited to changes in the interpretation of relevant legislation);
	(e)		that would not have arisen but for any act, omission or transaction carried out by, at the written request of or with the consent of the Buyer or its Affiliates (excluding the Group Companies) before or after the Closing; or
	(f)		to the extent that a specific provision or reserve has been made for such matter in the Accounts or the Management Accounts.

9.4.2		If any Loss that is compensable under this Agreement is a tax-deductible item for the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, the compensation payable by the Seller hereunder shall be reduced by the tax rate applicable in the relevant jurisdiction at the time of the Loss, provided that the Loss can be utilised to offset against taxable profits during the year to which the Loss relates.
9.4.3		The Buyer shall take all reasonable action to mitigate any compensable Loss in respect of which a claim could be made under this Agreement, including but not limited to taking reasonable measures to enforce any recovery that can be obtained from a third party before taking action against the Seller.
9.5		Notice of Claim and Limitations in Time
9.5.1		The Buyer shall not be entitled to make a claim under this Agreement unless:

(a)

the Buyer has given written notice to the Seller of such claim, describing in reasonable detail the nature of such claim and, as far as practicable, the calculation of the Loss claimed, within 30 Business Days after the Buyer discovered the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim; and

	(e)		for breach or non-fulfilment of any of the other covenants set forth herein, which covenants shall be subject to the limitation in time set forth in Clause 9.5.1(a) hereof and the statutes of limitation that follows from Applicable Law.

9.5.3		Any claim notified by the Buyer shall be deemed to have been withdrawn and waived by the Buyer unless legal proceedings in respect thereof have been initiated within six months of the notification of such claim to the Seller.
9.6		Limitations in Amount
9.6.1		The Buyer shall not be entitled to compensation for a Loss arising as a result of breach of Warranty unless:

	(a)		the amount of the aggregate Loss arising from the same set of facts exceeds SEK 1,000,000; and

The Seller’s total

		liability under this Agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the Purchase Price actually paid by the Buyer to the Seller.
9.7		Double Recovery
9.7.1		If and to the extent the Buyer has been compensated for a Loss by the Seller, and the Buyer or the relevant Group Company subsequently is able to recover such Loss (attributable to the same subject matter) from a third party, the Buyer shall repay such amount (net of any costs and expenses relating to such recovery) to the Seller, or such other Person that the Seller designates, without undue delay up to the amount for which the Buyer has been compensated by the Seller.
9.7.2		If and to the extent the Buyer has been compensated for a Loss by the Seller, the Buyer shall assign, or procure that the relevant Group Company assigns, at the request of the Seller and to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, its rights against any Person in respect of such Loss to the Seller or such other Person that the Seller designates.
9.8		Third Party Claims

	(f)		at the Seller’s request and at the Seller’s cost and expense, allow the Seller (at the Seller’s option) to:

10.8		Set-off and Escrow
10.8.1		All amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid in full without any deduction or withholding and no Party shall be entitled to assert any credit, set-off or counterclaim against another Party in order to justify withholding payment of any such amount, in whole or in part, other than as required under Applicable Law or with respect to undisputed claims or claims that have been finally settled by a final arbitration award or final judgement by the Accountant, as the case may be, which may be set-off in accordance with Clause 9.1.2 of this Agreement; provided, however, that all or a portion of the Remaining Second Earn-Out may be withheld and paid into the Escrow Account pursuant to Clause 10.8.3 hereof.
10.8.2		Subject to Clauses 10.8.3 — 10.8.5 below, the Buyer may withhold from the payment of the Remaining Second Earn-Out due for payment pursuant to Clause 3.2, the following amounts:

	(a)		the amount of any previously made bona fide claims against the Seller hereunder which are then in dispute;
	(b)		the amount of the Buyer’s bona fide estimate at such time of any Losses that the Buyer and its Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Group Companies) may still suffer or incur as a result from or arising out of the specific matter identified in item (a) of Schedule 9.9, provided, however, that the dispute concerned is still pending and that such amount shall never exceed SEK 2,700,000; and

The

		Buyer covenants and agrees that it will execute and deliver the Escrow Agreement within five (5) calendar days of the Seller’s request.
10.8.4		The escrow agent appointed pursuant to the Escrow Agreement shall hold and release the amount so withheld and paid into the Escrow Account pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer specifically covenants and agrees:

	(a)		that any amounts paid to the Escrow Account with respect to a specific bona fide claim against the Seller pursuant to Clause 10.8.2(a) above shall be immediately released if the Buyer has not initiated legal proceedings in respect of the claim in question within one month of having made such payment into the Escrow Account; and
	(b)		that any amounts paid to the Escrow Account pursuant to Clause 10.8.2(c) above shall, subject to any earlier release pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, be released no later than as follows:

	(A)		1/4 of such amount shall be released on 1 January 2014;
	(B)		1/4 of such amount shall be released on 1 January 2015;
	(C)		1/4 of such amount shall be released on 1 January 2016; and

			in each case provided that no bona fide claim has been made against the Seller under item (c) of Schedule 9.9 prior to such date.

10.8.5		Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set out herein, if the Buyer is entitled to withhold an amount pursuant to Clause 10.8.2, the Seller shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to have a bank guarantee issued to the Buyer (the “Bank Guarantee”) instead of having the Buyer pay the relevant amount to the Escrow Account pursuant to Clause 10.8.3. The Bank Guarantee shall be issued by a reputable bank reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and shall cover the amount which the Buyer is entitled to withhold pursuant to Clause 10.8.2. The Buyer covenants and agrees that it will immediately pay to the Seller any amounts withheld pursuant to Clause 10.8.2 upon receipt of the Bank Guarantee. Furthermore, the Parties agree and acknowledge that Clause 10.8.4 shall be applied mutatis mutandis with respect to the total amount that the Bank Guarantee shall cover.
10.9		Disputes
10.9.1		Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, shall be settled by arbitration under the international commercial arbitration rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”), which are incorporated by reference into this Clause. The number of arbitrators shall be three, and the arbitrators shall be appointed in accordance with LCIA rules. Any requirement of the LCIA to take account of the nationality of a person considered for appointment as an arbitrator shall not be applicable and a person may be nominated as an arbitrator (including as chairman) regardless of nationality.
10.9.2		The seat of arbitration shall be London, England. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English, unless the parties thereto agree otherwise.

10.9.3		The Parties undertake and agree that all arbitral proceedings conducted or initiated with reference to this Clause 10.9 (Disputes) shall be kept strictly confidential. This confidentiality undertaking shall cover the fact that arbitration has been initiated, all information disclosed in the course of such arbitral proceedings, as well as any decision or award that is made or declared during the proceedings. Information covered by this confidentiality undertaking may not, in any form, be disclosed to a third party without the prior written consent of the other Party. This notwithstanding, a Party shall not be prevented from disclosing such information in order to safeguard in the best possible way such Party’s rights vis-à-vis the other Party in connection with the dispute, or if such a right exists pursuant to a statute, a regulation, a decision by an authority, a stock exchange contract or similar.
10.10		Governing Law
		This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Sweden, without giving regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

3.1.2		In addition to the Buyer Calculations, the Buyer shall deliver to the Seller upon written request (and, in any case, in the event of a dispute with respect to the Buyer Calculations in accordance with this Clause 3.1.2), a copy of the Earn-Out Accounts for such Earn-Out Period, including all work papers and back-up materials relating thereto, and a certificate, signed by the chief financial officer of the Company, confirming that the Group Companies’ operations have been conducted in accordance with all of the provisions of this Schedule and that, to his knowledge, there has been no breach of any obligation of the Buyer and no dispute with respect to any costs allocated by the Buyer to the Included Business in accordance with the terms of this Schedule.

During such thirty (30) calendar day period, the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, promptly make available to the

		Seller and his advisors, such of the Group Companies’ books and records, other information and appropriate personnel as the Seller may reasonably request in connection with the review of the Buyer Calculations.
3.1.4		If the Seller does not provide the Buyer with an Earn-Out Dispute Notice within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the Buyer Calculations as correct and final. If the Seller provides the Buyer with an Earn-Out Dispute Notice within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the Seller shall be deemed to have accepted all items and amounts contained in the Buyer Calculations with respect to which it has not disagreed in its Earn-Out Dispute Notice, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit or restrict the possibility of the Accountant to reach a Final Decision on the Earn-Out anywhere within the range set forth in the fourth sentence of Clause 3.1.6.

3.1.8		In the event of an Earn-Out Dispute, the Buyer will be under no obligation to make any payment of the disputed portion of the Earn-Out, as determined in accordance with Clause 3.1.6, until such dispute is finally resolved by either a written settlement agreement between the Buyer and the Seller or a Final Decision, provided, however, that to the extent the Earn-Out is not, subject to disagreement by the Seller as described in Clause 3.1.6, the Buyer shall be obliged to pay the undisputed part of the Earn-Out, i.e. the lower amount of the range defined by the Buyer’s and the Seller’s respective calculation of the PBT, in accordance with Clause 3.2 below.

3.2.1		Subject to Clause 9.1.2 of the Agreement, any payment of any installments of the Earn-Out will be made by the Buyer to a bank account nominated by the Seller (A) with respect to the Preliminary Second Earn-Out, within 30 calendar days of the end of the Preliminary Second Earn-Out Period, and (B) with respect to the First Earn-Out and the Remaining Second Earn-Out, (a) within five (5) calendar days after the Buyer’s receipt of the Seller’s written acceptance of the Buyer Calculations (the “Seller’s Acceptance”), (b) within thirty five (35) calendar days after the Seller’s receipt of the Buyer Calculations if, within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving the Buyer Calculations, the Seller has not delivered the Seller’s Acceptance to the Buyer or provided the Buyer with an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, or, in any event, with respect to any undisputed part of the Earn-Out, or (c) if the Seller has delivered an Earn-Out Dispute Notice to the Buyer pursuant to this Clause 3, in relation to any disputed part of the Earn-Out, within five (5) calendar days after the Buyer and the Seller have executed a written settlement agreement with respect to the Earn-Out Dispute or the Accountant has issued and delivered to the Buyer and the Seller a Final Decision, as applicable.

Notwithstanding the above, the following overhead allocations of costs and expenses shall be permissible: (i) director supervisory, consulting or management costs incurred by the Buyer for managing the business of the Group Companies and (ii) services or resources which are provided by the Buyer or its Affiliates, on the basis of, with respect to both (i) and (ii) above, such services or resources being required by and cost efficient for the Group Companies, including but not limited to such services of the Human Resources, Legal, Accounting, Finance, Treasury and Operations and IT departments and being provided with the objective of maximizing

			the PBT during the Earn-Out Period and in the best interest of the Included Business as a going concern. Any services provided by the Buyer in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be provided on terms that are arms-length and shall be invoiced on a timely basis to the Company based on actual and documented services rendered to the Group Company based on the actual and documented services rendered to the Group Companies and will to the extent relating to the Included Business be included in the calculation of the PBT. The Buyer shall procure that the Group Companies provide a summary of any services provided under (i) or (ii) above to the board of directors of the Company as part of Group’s normal reporting practices. Any other corporate cost allocations, including without limitation to management fees that deviates from what is set out above, made to or paid by the Group Companies, shall be excluded from the calculation of the PBT.
	(b)		Benefits Adjustments: Employee benefits (excluding salaries) may be provided by the Buyer or its Affiliates for the Group Companies’ employees. Any increase in the cost allocation for such benefits as compared to those expenses in the Forecast, unless such increase results from a change required by Applicable Law, shall not be charged to the Group Companies. Increases in benefits expenses resulting from periodic cost increases imposed by benefit providers in the Agreed Course of Business or for new employees (excluding employees for any Excluded Business), as contemplated by the Forecast, will be an operating expense for purposes of determining the PBT.
	(c)		Compensation Adjustments. Any increases in salaries or related compensation (other than benefits provided pursuant to 5(b), above) of the employees of the Group Companies in the Agreed Course of Business shall be charged to the Group Companies, provided that any salary and related compensation adjustments directed by the Buyer and not in the Agreed Course of Business or in excess of what is required under Applicable Law or by collective bargaining agreements will be excluded from the PBT as well as compensation adjustments relating to the Excluded Business. All additional employees of the Group Companies added in the Agreed Course of Business after the Closing Date (including any employees that replace existing employees as of the Closing Date but excluding employees for any Excluded Business or any additional employees of the Group Companies working at the head office directly as a result of any new stores opened following the Closing Date), their compensation expense will be an operating expense for purposes of determining the PBT.
	(d)		Other Expenses. All expenses of the Group Companies, to the extent relating to and incurred in the conduct of the Included Business and in the Agreed Course of Business shall be included for the purposes of calculating the PBT (including any costs and expenses relating to project Queen, a new IT-system to be implemented by the Group Companies, that is currently included in the Forecast). Any expenses

			incurred outside the Agreed Course of Business of the Included Business and any expenses incurred in relation to the Excluded Business shall be excluded for the purposes of calculating the PBT, including but not limited to any additional overhead costs directly resulting from the opening of any new stores after the Closing Date and any additional expenses relating to project Queen that are not included in the Forecast and that result from a modification of the scope of project Queen as of the Signing Date.
	(e)		Exclusion of claim: The impact on the PBT of the Group Companies related to any and all issues that may give the Buyer a claim against the Sellers under the Agreement shall be excluded for the purposes of calculating the PBT.
	(f)		Accounting Reserves: Any accounting reserves, except for reserves and accruals created in the Ordinary Course of Business, that have been created by the Company prior to the Closing Date and that are reversed during the Earn-Out Period shall not count for purposes of calculating the PBT, provided, however, that to the extent such reserves created outside the Ordinary Course of Business are found insufficient during the Earn-Out Period entailing additional costs and expenses for the Group Companies in relation to the subject matter of such reserves, such costs and expenses shall also be excluded from the calculation of the PBT. The Company will provide a certificate at Closing, signed by the Company’s chief financial officer, setting forth a true and accurate list of the Company’s accounting reserves outside the Ordinary Course of Business and the amounts of such reserves as of the Closing Date.
			Any accounting reserves created by the Company during the Earn-Out Period in the Ordinary Course of Business in accordance with the Accounting Principles in relation to the Included Business, shall be included in the calculation of the PBT (whereas, for the avoidance of doubt, any accounting reserves outside the Ordinary Course of Business or relating to the Excluded Business shall not). If and to the extent any such accounting reserves that have been included in the PBT are thereafter reversed during the Earn-Out Period, any such reversal shall be counted for purposes of PBT. If and to the extent any such accounting reserves that have been included in the PBT and which individually amount to at least SEK 500,000, are reversed or are found insufficient after the expiry of the Second Earn-Out Period or an Accelerated Earn-Out, the Buyer agrees to compensate the Seller as promptly as possible with an amount in SEK corresponding to the effect such reversal would have had on the Earn-Out if it had taken place during the Earn-Out Period and the Seller agrees to compensate the Buyer as promptly as possible with an amount in SEK corresponding to the effect any such additional costs or expenses resulting from the subject matter of the insufficient reserve would have had if they had been incurred during the Earn-Out Period, respectively.

	(g)		Disputes and Complaints: All costs and expenses incurred by the Group Companies in rigorously defending against any, disputes, complaints or other legal matters in relation to the matters described in Clause 4.1.2(a) will to the extent related to the Included Business be considered expenses incurred in the Agreed Course of Business and included in the PBT calculation, provided that the Buyer agrees that it will notify the Seller’s Representative prior taking any such action, and will use its commercially reasonable business judgment in determining the appropriate course of action to engage in such rigorous defense so as not to engage in excessive or unnecessary legal proceedings.
	(h)		Included and Excluded Business: All income and expenses of the Buyer and its Affiliates (including for purposes hereof the Group Companies) that relates to the Company Business in or relating to the Existing Shops (including but not limited to any gain or loss relating to any disposal of Existing Shops or material assets), any income that relates to a Current Customer in any stores that are not Existing Shops and any income from retail sales of products that are transferred from Existing Shops to new stores and sold in new stores, and as such business is intended to be conducted pursuant to the Forecast or is adjusted, changed or modified after the Closing Date in accordance with Clause 4.1.2(b), shall be included in the calculation of the PBT (“Included Business”). All income and expenses of the Group Companies that relate to any business activities in stores that are not open on the Closing Date, including in any stores acquired (directly or indirectly) after the Closing Date (with the Buyer procuring that such acquired stores will not operate under the trade names or trademarks of any Group Company) but excluding any business activities of the Current Customers, shall be excluded in the calculation of the PBT (“Excluded Business”). Accordingly, and for the avoidance of doubt, only the operations of the Buyer and its Affiliates (including for purposes hereof the Group Companies) within the Company Business conducted in the Existing Shops (including but not limited to any gain or loss relating to any disposal of Existing Shops or material assets) and for the products and services (i) offered as of the Closing Date and any income relating to Current Customers or products from Existing Shops in any stores that are opened after the Closing Date, (ii) referred to in the Forecast or (iii) added with the prior written consent of the Seller, will be included in the calculation of the PBT.

	(j)		Cost and Expenses relating to this Agreement: Any costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the performance of the Buyer’s obligations pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be allocated to the Company. Services, resources and licenses to be provided by the Group Companies to the Buyer shall be provided at arms-length basis and on market terms in accordance with Applicable Law.
	(k)		Additional Working Capital Loans: If the Group Companies require additional funding in relation to, or funding replacing, the Working Capital Loans existing on the Closing Date to fund the pledge stock of the Included Business in the Agreed Course of Business, the Buyer and its Affiliates shall make available such financing on an arms-length basis, or procure that external funding is raised, at a competitive marketable interest rate for external financing and on such other terms and conditions commensurate with those applicable to the Group Companies under the terms of the Working Capital Loans existing as of the Closing Date. Interest expense of the Group Companies in accordance with the above shall be included in the calculation of the PBT, provided, however, that any such interest expense relating to the Excluded Business or exceeding what may reasonably be deemed to be a competitive marketable interest rate for external funding shall be excluded for the purposes of calculating the PBT.
	(l)		If financing, in addition to the replacement of the Preato Loan in accordance with Clause 4.1.1(k), that is not financing in accordance with item (k) above, is deemed reasonably necessary by the board of the Company, in light of the Group Companies performing significantly worse than anticipated in the Forecast, for the conduct of the Included Business in the Agreed Course of Business, the Buyer or its Affiliates shall make available such shareholder financing on an arms-length basis, or procure that external funding is raised, at an interest rate not exceeding the interest rate on the Working Capital Loans existing on the Closing Date and on such other terms and conditions commensurate to the terms and conditions of the Working Capital Loans. Interest expense (excluding any other fees) of the Included Business in accordance with the above shall be included in the calculation of PBT.
	(m)		Financing Costs, Amortizations and Write-Offs: Any other interest expenses and other financing costs not relating to funding described in items (k) or (l) above, including without limitation any interest expenses or other financing costs resulting from a breach of the covenant in Clause 4.1.1(k), of the operations of the Included Business and any costs relating to amortizations or write-offs of intangible assets in the Group Companies, whether relating to the Included or the Excluded Business, shall be excluded from the calculation of the PBT.
