GOVERNANCE IN RELATION TO UK TAXATION

APPROACH TO TAX RISKS

PIXEL MEDIA NETWORK LTD:

• will only undertake transactions that we are prepared to fully disclose, and we will not undertake transactions that are without strong underlying commercial motivation, or that are (or appearto be) artificial or contrived;
• will seek to minimise the risk of uncertainty or disputes;
• will carefully manage the tax risks and costs inherent in every commercial transaction, in the same way as any other cost. However, we do not enter into artificial arrangements in order to avoid taxation or to defeat the stated purpose of tax legislation;
• will not enter into tax planning, transactions or structures that are notifiable to tax authorities under mandatory disclosure regimes, which we consider to be abusive, or which otherwise have no ultimatecommercial business purpose;
• will aim to pay an appropriate amount of tax and do not use contrived or abnormal tax structures that are intended for tax avoidance, have no commercial substance and do not meet the spirit of local or international law;
• will ensure that the commercial needs of the Company are paramount and all tax planning will be undertaken in this context. All transactions must therefore have a business purpose or commercial rationale. Due consideration will be given to the company’s reputation, brand, corporate and social responsibilities when considering tax initiatives, as well as the applicable legal and fiduciary duties of directors and employees of the company and will form part of the overall decision-making and risk assessment process.
