HISTORY
AND DEVELOPMENT OF PSIVIDA
|
·
|
In
October 2003, we subscribed for additional convertible preference
share
capital in pSiMedica Ltd., increasing our direct ownership interest
in
pSiMedica by 3.4% to 46.25% with indirect effective control over
53.05%.
The consideration paid by us in relation to this additional investment
amounted to £2 million (A$4.8 million). This investment was required to
fund continued research and development by
pSiMedica.
|
·
|
In
May 2004, the minority shareholders in pSiOncology, Singapore General
Hospital Technology Ventures Pte Ltd and Biotech Research Ventures
Pte
Ltd, exchanged their pSiOncology shares for newly issued shares in
pSiMedica. Since that time, pSiMedica has been the holder of 100%
of the
issued share capital of
pSiOncology.
|
·
|
In
August 2004, we acquired the remaining shares in pSiMedica Ltd. that
we
did not already own. The consideration paid was A$4,323,622 together
with
a total of 49,804,381 ordinary shares of pSivida issued at a value
of
A$1.09 per share. In addition, 638,537 pSivida options with an estimated
fair value of A$292,828 were issued to employees of pSiMedica in
exchange
for their rights being waived in relation to options previously issued
by
pSiMedica. This amounted to total consideration equal to A$59.2 million.
As a result of this transaction QinetiQ Group plc, one of Europe’s largest
science and technology companies and the principal shareholder (besides
pSivida) of pSiMedica, became our largest shareholder holding 17.5%
of our
issued capital at that time.
|
·
|
In
August 2004, we incorporated AION Diagnostics Limited in Australia
to
develop and commercialize diagnostic applications of BioSilicon.
We intend
to license diagnostic and sensor applications of the BioSilicon platform
technology developed by AION Diagnostics. We capitalized AION Diagnostics
with A$1.2 million. In addition, zero exercise price options have
been
created over 20% of the issued capital to be awarded to directors,
staff
and consultants of AION Diagnostics, subject to the achievement of
milestones.
|
·
|
In
October 2005, we capitalized A$2.4 million as a completed cleanroom
facility for the supply of our cancer therapy product, BrachySil,
at QSA’s
Auriga Medical facility in Braunschweig, Germany. The facility is
designed
to complete the final stage in the manufacture of BrachySil and to
allow
us to supply future clinical and commercial
needs.
|
·
|
In
October 2005, we entered into a merger agreement with CDS, a Boston-based
company engaged in the design and development of drug delivery products.
The merger agreement provided that a newly-formed subsidiary of pSivida
would merge into CDS, with CDS surviving the merger as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of pSivida with the name of pSivida Inc. The merger was
completed on December 30, 2005. In exchange for their CDS shares,
the
former stockholders of CDS received 15,983,661 of our ADSs. Based
on a
price of A$0.71 per share, the price prevailing upon the closing
of the
merger, the transaction represented a purchase price of approximately
A$116.9 million (US$86.7 million). As of the December 30, 2005 acquisition
date, the ADSs received by the former CDS stockholders represented
approximately 41.3% of the capital stock of the combined company.
The
former CDS stockholders were subject to lock-up periods of no less
than
six months.

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW

·
|
Durasert
|
·
|
BioSilicon
|
·
|
CODRUG
|
·
|
Development
of our own products utilizing our proprietary technologies to produce
new
and improved versions of previously approved (generic) drug molecules
and
therapeutic agents, i.e., reformulated generics. These products will
be
licensed out to development and marketing partners at an appropriate
stage
to maximize their value to us.
|
·
|
Establishment
of drug delivery partnerships with pharmaceutical and biotechnology
companies to develop novel and improved formulations of their proprietary
drug molecules and therapeutics. The objective of these partnerships
is to
generate value by licensing our drug delivery technologies for third
parties’ specific drug molecules and
applications.

|
Localized
Delivery.
The Durasert system permits implantation, injection or other application
directly at the target site. This administration allows the natural
barriers of the body to isolate and maintain appropriate concentrations
of
the drug at the target site in an effort to achieve the maximum
therapeutic effect of a drug while minimizing unwanted systemic
effects.
|
·
|
Controlled
Release Rate.
The Durasert system releases drugs at a constant or controlled rate.
We
believe that this feature allows our products and product candidates
to
maintain optimal drug concentrations at a target site and eliminate
variability in dosing over time.
|
·
|
Extended
Delivery.
The Durasert system delivers drugs for predetermined periods of time
ranging from days to years. We believe that uninterrupted, sustained
delivery offers the opportunity to develop products that reduce the
need
for repeat applications, eliminate the risk of patient noncompliance
and
provide more effective treatment.

Biocompatibility.
BioSilicon is biocompatible, meaning that it is not injurious and
does not
cause immunological rejection within the body. We have assessed the
biocompatibility of BioSilicon in a series of pre-clinical studies,
as
well as in our ongoing clinical work. BioSilicon degrades in the
body into
silicic acid, the non-toxic, dietary form of silicon which is found
in
some common foods.
|
·
|
Biodegradability.
We believe that BioSilicon can be made biodegradable in vivo and
in vitro
(in animals and humans and in solution). The rate of biodegradation
depends on the degree of nanostructure that is imparted on the material.
As a result, we believe that BioSilicon can be made to dissolve in
suitable environments in days, weeks or months, depending upon the
particle size and nature of the BioSilicon implanted. This has been
demonstrated in various models, including in vitro buffer and simulated
body fluid systems and in pre-clinical in vivo
models.
|
·
|
high
level drug loading (up to 95%) and up to 50%
weight/weight;
|
·
|
ability
to improve the dissolution and bioavailability of poorly water soluble
drugs and the ability to control drug
release;
|
·
|
ability
to accommodate different drug
sizes;
|
·
|
ability
to serve as a conductor of electrical charge which can be altered
to
regulate drug delivery rate (in potential future advanced drug delivery
systems); and
|
·
|
potential
incorporation of diagnostics and delivery intelligence (in potential
future advanced drug delivery
systems).
|
·
|
Short
range.
32-P isotope has a short active range resulting in less damage to
healthy
tissue;
|
·
|
Range
of tumors.
Fine gauge needle delivery allows potential application to a range
of
solid tumors;
|
·
|
Direct
delivery.
Injection via fine gauge needle minimizes side effects and tissue
trauma;
|
·
|
Distribution.
32-P half-life of 14 days allows more convenient distribution to
hospitals
and application in the patient;
|
·
|
Immobilization.
32-P particles are localized in the tumor, significantly reducing
risk of
leakage or systemic side effects.

In
September 2005, we raised US$4.3 million (A$5.7 million) of gross
proceeds
in a private placement structured as a PIPE. In the PIPE, we sold
665,000
ADSs to investors at US$6.50 per ADS and issued three-year warrants
exercisable for 133,000 ADSs at US$12.50 per
ADS.
|
·
|
On
November 16, 2005, we issued a subordinated convertible promissory
note in
the principal amount of US$15.0 million (A$19.7 million) to an
institutional investor in a private placement. The note bears interest
at
a rate equal to 8% per year, which we can pay in ADSs instead of
cash if
certain conditions are met. The note has a term of three years and
was
initially convertible into ADSs at a conversion price of US$7.10
per ADS,
subject to adjustment based upon certain events or circumstances,
including, without limitation, the market price of ADSs for the ten
trading days ending August 5, 2006, if such price was lower than
US$6.57.
We also issued a warrant with a term of six years which entitled
the
institutional investor to purchase up to 633,803 ADSs at US$7.20
per ADS,
also subject to adjustment upon specified events. Since the completion
of
our rights issue on June 14, 2006, the exercise price under the warrant
was adjusted to US$7.17 per ADS. We have also entered into a registration
rights agreement pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration
statement covering the resale of the ADSs underlying the note (as
well as
any ADSs received by the institutional investor as interest under
the
note) and the warrant, as soon as practicable and to have the registration
statement declared effective within 180 days of issuance of the note
and
warrant. The gross proceeds received by us in the private placement
were
US$15.0 million (A$19.7 million). Proceeds may increase to approximately
US$19.5 million (approximately A$25.9 million) if the warrant is
exercised
in full in cash.
|
·
|
On
June 14, 2006, we announced that our non-renounceable rights issue
had
closed. Proceeds of A$6,309,487, before costs, were raised through
the
issuance of 10,515,811 new ordinary shares at a price of A$0.60 per
share.
This represented a subscription of 22% of the total shares available
for
subscription under the rights
issue.
|
·
|
On
September 14, 2006, we amended the terms of the subordinated
convertible
promissory note that was issued on November 16, 2005 to an institutional
investor. The note continues to have a three year term and to
bear 8%
interest payable quarterly. We may make future interest payments
in the
form of our NASDAQ-listed ADSs, or, at our sole option, we may
make such
payments in cash. Per the amended terms, the note is now convertible
into
ADSs at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS, subject to adjustment
based
upon certain events or circumstances, including, without limitation,
if
108% of the market price of ADSs for the ten trading days ending
April 30,
2007 is lower than the current conversion price. In connection
with the
amendments, we repaid US$2.5 million (A$3.3 million) of the outstanding
principal note and agreed to pay US$1.0 million (A$1.3 million)
in related
penalties, which were paid on September 14, 2006. The investor
retains its
existing warrants to purchase 633,803 additional ADSs, exercisable
for six
years at a current exercise price of US$7.17 per ADS. In connection
with
the amendments, we agreed with the institutional investor to
extend the
deadline for the registration statement required by the registration
rights agreement to be declared effective by the SEC through
October 15,
2006, with increased penalties if that deadline were missed.
Our
registration statement was declared effective on September 29,
2006. We
were also released from the restrictions on future fundraising
transactions contained in the note documentation. We also granted
the
investor an additional warrant to purchase 5.7 million ADSs exercisable
for five years with an exercise price of US$1.80 per ADS and
a security
interest in our current royalties, subject to release of that
security
upon any disposition by us of the royalty
stream.
|
·
|
On
September 26, 2006, we issued three new subordinated convertible
promissory notes in the principal amount of US$6.5 million (A$8.5
million)
to institutional investors. The notes are convertible into our ADSs
at a conversion price of US$2.00 per ADS (A$0.27 per ordinary share),
subject to adjustment based on certain events or circumstances, including
the market price of our ADSs on April 30, 2007. The notes bear interest
at
a rate equal to 8% per annum and mature three years from issuance.
Interest is payable quarterly in arrears in cash or ADSs at an 8%
discount
to the 10 day volume weighted average closing price. We also issued
warrants to the investors with a term of five years which will entitle
the
investors to purchase 2,925,001 ADSs at US$2.00 per ADS. We have
also
entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we
have
agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the
ADSs
underlying the notes and the warrants as soon as practicable and
to have
the registration statement declared effective on or before January
1,
2007. We may redeem the notes at any time by payment of 108% of the
face
value and may force conversion if the ADS price remains above two
times
the conversion price for a period of 25 days. The proceeds of the
issuance
are expected to be used for general corporate
purposes.
|
·
|
On
October 17, 2006, we signed an agreement with our investor further
revising the terms of the November 16, 2005 subordinated convertible
promissory note. Pursuant to that agreement, we were released until
March
30, 2007 from the requirement to maintain a net cash balance in excess
of
30% of the principal amount of the note outstanding. Up to and including
March 30, 2007, the net cash balance required to be held by us has
been
reduced to US$1.5 million (A$2.1 million). The investor further waived
any
default that would otherwise have resulted from the unavailability
of our
resale prospectus until we filed our 2006 audited U.S. GAAP-reconciled
financial statements. We filed those financial statements on
October 31,
2006, thus satisfying the condition in the agreement. In exchange
for the
foregoing, we will be required to make a one-time payment to the
investor
of US$800,000 (A$1.1 million) on December 28, 2006 and three payments
of
US$150,000 (A$205,000) on January 31, 2007, February 28, 2007 and
March
30, 2007.

On
October 3, 2005, we entered into a merger agreement with CDS, a
Boston-based company engaged in the design and development of drug
delivery products. The merger agreement provided that a newly-formed
subsidiary of pSivida would merge into CDS, with CDS surviving the
merger
as a wholly-owned subsidiary of pSivida with the name of pSivida
Inc.
After approval by the required majorities of both companies’ shareholders
and the fulfillment of other closing conditions, the merger was completed
on December 30, 2005. Pursuant to the merger,
we issued a total of 161,047,790 ordinary shares (represented by
16,104,779 ADSs) consisting of:
|
·
|
150,844,680
ordinary shares (represented by 15,084,468 ADSs)
in exchange for the outstanding CDS common and preferred shares on
the
date of the acquisition in accordance with the merger agreement;
|
·
|
1,211,180
nonvested ordinary shares (represented by 121,118 nonvested ADSs)
in
connection with CDS employee retention agreements (not accounted
for as
part of the purchase price); and

·
|
On
October 27, 2005, we signed a license with Beijing Med-Pharm Corporation
for the clinical development, marketing and distribution of BrachySil
in
China. Under the terms of the license, we will manufacture BrachySil
and
Beijing Med-Pharm will be responsible for clinical development, securing
regulatory approval, marketing and distribution in China and Hong

|
·
|
On
February 10, 2006, we announced that Bausch & Lomb and Novartis
Ophthalmics, a business unit of Novartis Pharmaceutical Corp., had
reached
an agreement to co-promote Retisert in the United States.
|
·
|
On
February 21, 2006, we reported that preliminary data from Bausch
&
Lomb’s clinical trial of Retisert for the treatment of chronic
non-infectious posterior segment uveitis showed a lower recurrence
rate in
eyes receiving Retisert than in non-implanted eyes. This study involved
278 patients from 27 hospitals in the United States and one in Singapore.
The study showed that, at three years, control of uveitis in eyes
implanted with Retisert was better than in non-implanted eyes, but
was
less effective than at two years and that some eyes may need to be
re-implanted between 24 and 36 months. In the study, patients received
either a 0.59 mg or a 2.1 mg Retisert device. Data presented was
the
aggregate of the two doses. At three years, the recurrence rate of
uveitis
was 33% in the eye receiving Retisert compared to 57% of fellow eyes.
A
greater number of eyes receiving Retisert experienced an improvement
in
vision of at least 15 letters (three lines on an eye chart) compared
to
fellow eyes (22% versus 6%). 45% of eyes receiving Retisert required
an
operation to relieve elevated intraocular pressure and 92% developed
a
cataract.
|
·
|
On
March 17, 2006, we announced that our ADSs had been included in the
Nanotechnology.com ‘Small Technology’ Index. Nanotechnology.com is owned
by The Nanotech Company, LLC an independent advisory firm specializing
in
advising nanotechnology companies.
|
·
|
On
March 20, 2006, we announced that an independent audit of our Boston,
Massachusetts facility performed by a European Qualified Person had
resulted in the issuance of a certificate indicating that our product
Medidur is manufactured to the standard of Good Manufacturing Practice
(GMP) set out in European Union directive 2003/94/EC and the EC Guide
to
Good Manufacturing Practice.
|
·
|
On
March 21, 2006, we announced that following a planned interim review,
an
independent data safety monitoring board, commonly known as a DSMB,
had
recommended the continuation of the Phase III clinical trial being
conducted by us and Alimera Sciences involving our product
Medidur.
|
·
|
On
April 3, 2006, we reported that randomized safety and efficacy trials
conducted by Bausch & Lomb had demonstrated that after two years, 30%
of eyes receiving repeat laser treatment, the current standard of
care,
had a worsening of their diabetic retinopathy compared with only
10% of
eyes receiving a Retisert implant. We also reported that Retisert
reduced
retinal thickening involving the center most part of the macula
responsible for sharp, central vision, or fovea, and led to a
statistically significant three line improvement in vision compared
to the
current standard of care. The study involved 277 patients from hospitals
in the U.S.
|
·
|
On
April 6, 2006, we reported that randomized safety and efficacy trials
involving patients with DME conducted by Bausch & Lomb had
demonstrated that after two years, the recurrence rate for uveitis
was
significantly lower in eyes receiving Retisert than in eyes receiving
systemic corticosteroid or other immunosuppressive agents, the current
standard of care. The study involved 146 patients across ten countries
in
Europe and the Middle East.
|
·
|
On
April 6, 2006, we entered into an evaluation agreement with an undisclosed
large medical device company to evaluate cardiovascular delivery
of drugs
using our drug delivery
technologies.
|
·
|
On
May 25, 2006, we announced that the Phase IIb clinical trial for
inoperable primary liver cancer for BrachySil had been extended to
centers
in Vietnam and Malaysia and that we were negotiating an extension
to
centers in the Philippines and Taiwan. In addition, we announced
that the
Phase IIa clinical trial for the treatment of pancreatic cancer for
BrachySil was expected to commence in June 2006 in hospitals in London
and
Singapore.
|
·
|
On
May 30, 2006, we announced that the Medicines and Healthcare Products
Regulatory Agency in the UK granted approval for the first human
study of
BrachySil for the treatment of inoperable pancreatic cancer. This
six
month Phase IIa clinical trial study is expected to involve 15 patients
at
the Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital in London and Singapore General
Hospital, which are leading centers for cancer
treatment.
|
·
|
On

and molecular imaging products currently under development by AION
Diagnostics.
|
·
|
On
July 6, 2006, we announced that BioSilicon has shown the capability
to act
as an adjuvant when delivered with an antigen. An adjuvant is any
substance that is capable of enhancing a host response towards an
active
agent, and is often used in conjunction with antigens to enhance
the
immune response of humans and animals. An antigen is any substance
capable
of eliciting an immune response. A patent application has been filed
in
the UK for the use of BioSilicon as an
adjuvant.
|

Kingdom.
|
·
|
On
November 20, 2006, we announced that we had entered into a collaboration
with another company to evaluate our BioSilicon technology for the
development of transdermal drug delivery systems. The collaboration
is
expected to last for twelve months, during which time, the parties
plan to
evaluate a range of biodegradable porous silicon structures, including
microneedles, for the controlled release of drugs through the

A$114,319
in cash;
|
·
|
150,844,680
ordinary shares (represented by 15,084,468 ADSs) issued in exchange
for
the outstanding shares of CDS common and preferred shares;
|
·
|
1,211,180
nonvested ordinary shares (represented by 121,118 nonvested ADSs)
issued
in connection with CDS employee retention agreements;
|
·
|
8,991,930
nonvested ordinary shares (represented by 899,193 nonvested ADSs)
issued
in exchange for the nonvested CDS common shares outstanding in connection
with director and employee retention agreements;
and
|
·
|
1,724,460
vested share options (represented by vested options to purchase 172,446
ADSs) in exchange for the outstanding vested options to purchase
common
stock of CDS.
|
·
|
We
determined that the closing price on the ASX provided the best estimate
of
fair value for our shares at a single point in time (A$0.71 at December
30, 2005, the date of exchange) since that market was the primary
market
at that time for our shares and the ASX had significantly greater
trading
volume in our shares than the NASDAQ Global Market or any other market
on
which our shares were then traded.
|
·
|
We
determined that the issue of 1,211,180 nonvested ordinary shares
in
connection with employee retention was not in exchange for existing
awards
held by CDS employees and, accordingly, the entire fair value of
these
nonvested shares were considered unearned compensation to be expensed
over
the future service (vesting) period and not part of the purchase
consideration.
|
·
|
We
made a judgment that the value of 8,991,930 nonvested ordinary share
issued in exchange for nonvested CDS common shares outstanding should
not
be discounted from the fair value per share determined for the vested
ordinary shares on the basis that (1) the holders had the same rights
as
normal holders of ordinary shares and (2) the Company’s estimate was that
all the underlying shares would
vest.
|
·
|
We
applied assumptions related to determining the fair value of share-based
payments (see discussion below) to the issuance of 1,724,460 vested
share
options in exchange for the outstanding vested CDS
options.
|
·
|
We
estimated the value of identifiable intangibles of CDS (Vitrasert,
Retisert and Medidur) utilizing the discounted value of projected
cash
flows. Management reviewed the estimate future cash flows and the
discount
rates used to calculate a present value. The patents supporting Vitrasert
were given no value based upon the judgment that the incidence of
the
disease to which the application of this technology relates has
significantly reduced due to advancements in the treatment of AIDS.
Projected cash flows for Medidur were adjusted downwards after applying
an
estimated probability of successful commercialization in light of
that
product’s then current stage of development. As a result, the value
ascribed to patents is primarily associated with Retisert, and the
value
attributed to in-process research and development is primarily related
to
Medidur.
|
·
|
We
reviewed the sales and leaseback transaction that CDS had entered
into in
relation to its premises, which resulted in a gain that was accounted
for
by CDS as deferred revenue subject to amortization over the subsequent

deferred liability at the date of the acquisition was determined
to be
zero.

Summary
of Significant Accounting
Policies
|
(i)
|
between
balance date and the date of this report, the Company has sold US$6.5
million ($8.5 million) of Subordinated Convertible Debentures as
further
described in Note 21;
|
(ii)
|
subsequent
to June 30, 2006 the Company closed an agreement to revise the terms
of
the convertible note as further described in Note 21. This included
the
rescheduling of capital repayments with two repayments of US$6.25
million
($8.56 million) in July 2007 and January 2008,
respectively;
|
(iii)
|
in
the event of a default under the terms of the convertible note the
Directors believe that they will be able to reach agreement on further
revisions to the terms of the convertible note without the debt being
called; and
|
(iv)
|
the
Directors believe that the Company has the capacity to raise additional
working capital either through the issue of additional equities or
new
debt issued to third parties, or a combination of debt and
equity.

The
compound embedded derivative arose in connection with the finance
facility
agreement with Castlerigg Master Investments. The facility agreement
contains a number of terms that create a hybrid financial instrument
consisting of a loan host contract and a compound embedded derivative.
In
accordance with the stated accounting policy, the embedded derivatives,
which include the conversion option and the holder’s redemption option,
are recognized separately from the host debt instrument. The value
of the
derivatives embedded in the loan has been determined at fair value
using a
Binomial Tree Model and changes over time are revalued on a marked
to
market basis through profit and
loss.

These
options had no intrinsic value at the date of
issue.
|
(i)
|
Bonuses
were paid in April 2005 to executive directors and staff as short
term
incentives following the achievement of key milestones following
a
recommendation from the Company’s Remuneration
Committee.
|
(ii)
|
During
the year ended June 30, 2005 options were granted to directors and
specified executives in August 2004 in respect of the pSiMedica
acquisition and April 2005 in respect of annual performance reviews,
pursuant to the Company’s Employee Share Option Plan, which have been
included as equity options remuneration above. These options have
been
valued using the Black Scholes Option Valuation Model, which takes
into
account time value and the volatility of the stock
price.
|
A
total of 8,251,000 options were issued to directors and employees
in
August 2004. The options are exercisable at $1.18, being an 8% premium
to
the share price at the time of the grant, and may be exercised between
the
date of grant and expiry on August 5,
2009.
|
A
total of 3,152,000 options were issued to employees in April 2005.
The
options are exercisable at $0.80, being a 10% premium to the share
price
at the time of the grant. The options are subject to varying vesting
and
performance conditions and expire on March 31,
2010.

not
bear harshly upon him and the parties agree
that:

remaining restrictions shall not be affected;
and
|
(b)
|

any restriction is found to be void but would be valid and enforceable

|
6.1
|
The
Company shall pay to the Executive the Salary at the rate of £50,000 per
annum, on the last day of each calendar month by credit transfer
to his
bank account payable by equal monthly instalments in arrears. The
rate of
Salary will be reviewed annually in
December.
|
6.2
|
The
Salary shall be inclusive of any fees to which the Executive may
be
entitled if he is appointed as a director of the Company or any
Group
Company.
|
6.3
|
The
Executive shall be eligible to participate in such bonus scheme
as the
Company, at its sole discretion, shall from time to time operate,
subject
to the rules of such scheme from time to time in
force.
|
6.4
|
Payment
of the Salary and any bonus to the Executive shall be made either
by the
Company or by a Group Company and, if by more than one company,
in such
proportions as the Board may from time to time think
fit.
|
7.1
|
The
Company shall reimburse the Executive in respect of all expenses
reasonably incurred by him in the proper performance of his duties,
subject to him providing such receipts or other appropriate evidence
as
the Company may require.
|
7.2
|
If
the Company issues to the Executive a company credit card then
such a
credit card is issued on condition that
he:
|
7.2.1
|
takes
good care of such card and immediately reports any loss of it to
the
Company;
|
7.2.2
|
uses
the card only for the purposes of the Company's business in accordance
with any applicable Company policy;
and
|
7.2.3 |
returns
the card immediately to the Company on

|
8.1
|
The
Executive shall be entitled, in addition to all Bank and Public
holidays
normally observed in England, to 25 working days’ paid holiday in each
holiday year (being the period from 1st January to 31st December).
The
Executive may take his holiday only at such times as are agreed
with the
Board.
|
8.2
|
In
the respective holiday years in which the Employment commences
or
terminates, the Executive's entitlement to holiday shall accrue
on a pro
rata basis for each completed calendar month of service during
the
relevant year.
|
8.3
|
If,
on the termination of the Employment, the Executive has exceeded
his
accrued holiday entitlement, the value of such excess, calculated
by
reference to clause 8.2 and the Salary, may be deducted by the
Company
from any sums due to him. If the Executive has any unused holiday
entitlement, the Company may either require the Executive to take
such
unused holiday during any notice period or make a payment to him
in lieu
of it, calculated in accordance with this clause
8.3.
|
8.4
|
Holiday
entitlement for one holiday year cannot be taken in subsequent
holiday
years unless otherwise agreed by the Board. Failure to take holiday
entitlement in the appropriate holiday year will lead to forfeiture
of any
accrued holiday not taken without any right to payment in lieu
of
it.
|
9.1
|
Subject
to clause 13, the Company shall continue to pay the Executive's
salary for
up to a maximum of 20 working days’ absence on medical grounds in any

required:
|
9.1.1
|
supply
the Company with medical certificates covering any period of sickness
or
incapacity exceeding seven days (including weekends);

|
undergo

any
medical examination.
|
9.2
|
Payment
in respect of any other or further period of absence shall be at
the
Company's discretion.
|
9.3
|
Any
payment to the Executive pursuant to clause 9.1 shall be subject
to set
off by the Company in respect of any Statutory Sick Pay and any
Social
Security Sickness Benefit or other benefits to which the Executive
may be
entitled.
|
9.4
|
Subject
to clause 9.3, when all sick pay entitlement in any period of 12
calendar
months has been exhausted, no further salary will be payable by
the
Company to the Executive until the Executive has returned to active
service of the Company.
|
9.5
|
If
the Executive's absence shall be occasioned by the actionable negligence
of a third party in respect of which damages are recoverable, then
the
Executive shall:
|
9.5.1
|
notify
the Company immediately of all the relevant circumstances and of
any
claim, compromise, settlement or judgment made or awarded in connection
with it;
|
9.5.2
|
give
to the Company such information concerning the above matters as
the
Company may reasonably require; and
|
9.5.3
|
if
the Company so requires, refund to the Company any amount received
by him
from any such third party provided that the refund shall be no
more than
the amount which he has recovered from the Company under clauses
9.1 and
9.2. in respect of sick pay for the period he is absent from work
due to
such actionable negligence of a third party in respect of which
damages
are recoverable.

shall
not directly or indirectly:
|
10.1.1
|
be
employed, engaged, concerned or interested in any other business
or
undertaking save for those in which he is involved pursuant to
clause 4.3;
or
|
10.1.2
|
in
any activity which the Board reasonably considers may be, or become,
harmful to the interests of the Company or of any Group Company
or which
might reasonably be considered to interfere with the performance
of the
Executive's duties under this
Agreement.
|

Clause
10.1 shall not apply:

any failure to exercise due care and diligence, permit or cause

unauthorised disclosure of any Confidential Information. These
restrictions shall cease to apply to any information which shall
become
available to the public generally otherwise than through any breach
by the
Executive of the provisions of this Agreement or other default
of the
Executive.
|
11.2
|
The
Executive acknowledges that all books, notes, memoranda, records,
lists of
customers and suppliers and employees, correspondence, documents,
computer

and
other documents and material whatsoever (whether made or created
by the
Executive or otherwise) relating to the business of the Company
or any
Group Company (and any copies of the
same):
|
11.2.1
|
shall
be and remain the property of the Company or the relevant Group
Company;
and
|
11.2.2
|
shall
be handed over by the Executive to the Company or to the relevant

|
The
parties foresee that the Executive may make inventions, create

create other intellectual property in the course of his duties
and agree
that in this respect the Executive has a special responsibility
to further
the interests of the Company.
|
12.2
|
Any
invention, improvement, idea, design, process, information, know
how,
copyright work, trade mark or trade name or get-up made, created
or
discovered by the Executive in the course of the Employment (whether
capable of being patented or registered or not and whether or not
made or
discovered in the course of the Employment) in conjunction with
or in any
way affecting or relating to the business of the Company or of
any Group
Company or capable of being used or adapted for use in or in connection
with such business ("Intellectual Property Rights") shall be disclosed
immediately to the Company and shall (subject to sections 39 to
43 Patents
Act 1977) belong to, be assigned to (where applicable) and be the
absolute
property of the Company or such Group Company as the Company may
direct.
|
12.3

If
and whenever required so to do by the Company the Executive shall
at the
expense of the Company or such Group Company as the Company may
direct:
|
12.3.1
|

the
Company may specify.
|
12.4
|
The
Executive irrevocably and unconditionally waives all rights under
Chapter

with his authorship of any existing or future copyright work in
the course
of the Employment, in whatever part of the world such rights may
be
enforceable including, without

12.4.1
|
the
right conferred by section 77 of that Act to be identified as the

his name
and on his behalf to execute any such instrument or do any such
thing and
generally to use his name for the purpose of giving to the Company
the
full benefits of this clause 12. A certificate in writing in favour
of any
third party signed by any director or by the Secretary of the Company
that
any instrument or act falls within the authority conferred by this
Agreement shall be conclusive evidence that such is the
case.
|
12.6

|
13.1.4 |

the
Road Traffic Acts or the Road Safety Acts for which a fine or

reorganisation, amalgamation or reconstruction of the Company,
acquires or
agrees to acquire not less than 90 per cent of the issued equity
share
capital of the Company (as defined by section 744 of the Companies
Act

If
the Company believes that it may be entitled to terminate the Employment
pursuant to clause 13 it shall be entitled (but without prejudice
to its
right subsequently to terminate the Employment on the same or any
other
ground) to suspend the Executive either on full pay or without
payment of
the Salary or other benefits for so long as it may think

|
13.3.1
|
at
the request of the Company resign from any office he may hold as
a
director of the Company and all offices held by him in any Group
Company
and shall transfer without payment to the Company or as the Company
may

or any
Group Company arising out of the termination of the Employment;

authorises the Company to appoint any person in his name and on
his behalf
to sign any documents and do any things necessary or requisite
to give
effect to his obligations under this clause 13.3.
|
14.1

Executive
had contact with any customer, client or agent of or supplier to
the
Company or any Group Company at any time during the period of 12
months
immediately preceding the date of termination of the
Employment.
|
14.2
|
Nothing
in clause 14.1 shall preclude the Executive from holding such investments

14.3

directly or indirectly represent himself as being interested in
or
employed by or in any way connected with the Company or any Group
Company,
other than as a former employee of the Company. The Executive also
undertakes not to make any disparaging comments about the Company
and the
Company likewise undertakes not to make any disparaging comments
about the
Executive.
|
14.4
|
The
Executive agrees that, having regard to all the circumstances,
the
restrictions contained in this clause are reasonable and necessary
for the
protection of the Company or of any Group Company and that they
do not
bear harshly upon him and the parties agree
that:
|
(a)
|
each
restriction shall be read and construed independently of the other
restrictions so that if one or more are found to be void or unenforceable
as an unreasonable restraint of trade or for any other reason the
remaining restrictions shall not be affected;
and
|
(b)
|
if
any restriction is found to be void but would be valid and enforceable
if
some part of it were deleted, that restriction shall apply with

deletion as may be necessary to make it valid and
enforceable.

This
Agreement shall be in substitution for any previous contracts,
whether by
way of letters of appointment, agreements or arrangements, whether
written, oral or implied, relating to the employment of the Executive,
which shall be deemed to have been terminated by mutual consent
as from

provision of this Agreement nor shall it prejudice the coming into
force
or the continuance in force of any provision of this Agreement
which is
expressly or by implication intended to or has the effect of coming
into
or continuing in force on or after such expiration or
