 Dear Hugh 
 I am writing to set

 These Terms are offered in full and final settlement of the claims as set out in Clause 18 (Waiver). 
  

	1.	DUTIES 

  

	1.1	You will be paid your basic salary and you will continue to receive your other contractual benefits up to and including the Termination Date together with a payment in respect of
accrued but untaken holiday entitlement (if any) for the current holiday year, less tax, employee pension contributions and National Insurance contributions. A form P45 will be issued to you as soon as reasonably practicable after the Termination
Date. 

  

	2.	TERMINATION PAYMENT 

  

	2.1	Within fourteen days of the later to occur of the Termination Date and receipt by the Company of your signed acceptance of these Terms and a letter from your solicitor to us in the
attached form, at Schedule A and after the issue of your P45 you will receive: 

 (a) a payment of £384,000 (the
Termination Payment) less any applicable tax deductions required by law; 
 (b) A payment of £1,000 in consideration of your
agreeing to clauses 10 and 11 herein. The payment will be made subject to deductions of the applicable rate of income tax and Employee National Insurance contributions. 
  

	3.	TAXATION 

  

	3.1	The first £30,000 of the Termination Payment will be paid without deduction of tax in accordance with Sections 401-403 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003. In
the event that HMRC demand any further tax and employee’s National Insurance contributions on the first £30,000 of the Termination Payment the Company will be responsible for their payment. Any excess of the Termination Payment over
£30,000 payable under these Terms and the value of the benefits provided to you under these Terms will be subject to deductions of basic rate income tax and National Insurance Contributions as appropriate. 









	3.2	You will be responsible for the payment of any further tax and employee’s National Insurance contributions that arises in respect of any payments made to you, or on your behalf
and the benefits provided to you under these Terms with exception of the first £30,000 of the Termination Payment. You agree to indemnify the Company or any Group Company on a continuing basis against any further liability to tax and
employee’s National Insurance contributions including any interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses, save for any interest, penalties, costs and expenses arising as a result of the fault of the Company, which any such company may incur
in respect of or by reason of the payments made to you and the benefits provided to you under these Terms with exception of the first £30,000 of the Termination Payment. For the purposes of these Terms “Group Company” shall mean any
company referred to in the Annual Report and Accounts of NYSE and those of Euronext NV, and of the NYSE Euronext group from 2008 onwards, and any other company which could reasonably be expected to be part of the NYSE Euronext group of companies and
the Group has the corresponding meaning. The Company shall give you reasonable notice of any demand for tax which may lead to liabilities under this indemnity and shall provide you with reasonable access to any documentation you may reasonably
require to deal with such a demand. 

  

	4.	PENSION AND BENEFITS 

 In Lieu of Pension
contributions and car allowance for your 12 month notice period the Company will pay you as sum of £116,972.04. If requested an element of or all of this sum will be paid into a Self Invested Personal Pension Plan (SIPP) of your choice upon

 The Company will continue your
coverage in the private medical insurance plan, until the Termination Date. 
  

	6.	EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN, OPTIONS AND RSU ALLOCATION

your Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) units will vest in full at the date of termination (5,891 Units) as per the rules of the plan (pro rata vesting for good leavers). 
 You are able to retain your vested 2004 options until the lapse date of 17 November 2011 by which time you will be required to exercise them as per the rules of the plan. You will be responsible for the payment
of any further tax and employee’s National Insurance contributions that arise in respect of the exercise of these options.

 You recognise,
