Period continues beyond 31 January 2026 you shall be reimbursed by the Employer during the remainder of the Relocation Period for the cost of up to four round trip flights between Los Angeles and London per annum (based on a business class

Stipend; and |
|
(f) |
in addition to the Relocation Stipend, the Employer shall reimburse you for any relocation expenses incurred

for any reason at any time prior to the end of the Relocation Period, any further payments or entitlements under this Letter would immediately cease (save for any relevant payments or portions thereof which have accrued but remain outstanding as of
the date of Termination). |
To the extent that any issues or obstacles (whether or not foreseeable as at the date of this Letter) arise at any time after the date of this
Letter which could prevent or materially hinder the commencement, operation or cessation of the Relocation (including, but not necessarily limited to, employee benefit provision or employment related taxation issues), the parties hereby agree to
work together and cooperate in good faith in order to seek to resolve any such issues or obstacles as expeditiously as possible on a mutually acceptable basis.
4.1 |
If these changes are acceptable to you, please sign, date and return one copy of the Letter, appropriately
witnessed. All other terms of your Employment Agreement and your terms and conditions of employment shall remain unchanged and will continue in full force and effect. |
