with the Company is “at will,” meaning that Executive may resign at any time for any reason and the Company may discharge Executive at any time for any reason, subject only to any obligation to provide notice as set forth in
Section 5.2(A) below. Therefore, beyond any obligation to give notice as set forth in Section 5.2(A) below, nothing in this Agreement obligates Executive to remain in the Company’s employ for any period of time, and the Company has no
obligation to employ Executive for any definite or indefinite period of time. 
 2.2 Executive represents that the performance of this
Agreement and his/her duties as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach (i) any pre-existing agreement to refrain from competing, directly or indirectly, with the business of any previous employer or any other party,

faithfully, diligently and efficiently perform such duties on behalf of the Company as the Company may assign to him/her. Executive agrees to abide by the rules, regulations, instructions, personnel practices and policies of the Company, including
any changes which may be adopted from time to time. Executive’s actions shall at all times be consistent with, and pursued solely to further the interests of the Company. Under no circumstances will Executive take any action contrary to the
best interests of the Company at any time during the Employment Period.

investment in any such company to the extent that (1) the investment does not constitute more than 1% of the competitor’s ownership, and (2) the investment is an immaterial percentage of Executive’s net worth.

4.1 Compensation: Executive’s Compensation will be determined in the Company’s sole discretion. 

4.2 Benefits: Executive shall be eligible to receive the various benefits offered by the Company to its executive employees as may be
determined from time to time by the Company. These benefits may be modified or eliminated from time to time at the sole discretion of the Company. Where a particular benefit is subject to a formal plan (for example, medical insurance), eligibility
to participate in and receive the particular benefit shall be governed solely by the applicable plan document. 
 4.3 Expenses:
Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred for the Group’s business (including travel and entertainment) in accordance with the policies, practices and
procedures of the Company. 
 5. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 

5.1 Termination For Cause: The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause immediately upon written notice. Upon

(a) earned wages or accrued vacation time that remain due and payable, and (b) benefits to the extent that Executive is entitled to accrued benefits under the express terms of any plan governing such benefits and to the extent that such
benefits cannot be cancelled under either the terms of the relevant plan documents or applicable law. Executive will have the right to elect to continue his/her health and dental insurance after the Termination Date to the extent permitted by the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”). Such coverage shall be at Executive’s expense and is not the responsibility of the Company. 

“Cause” means the Company’s determination, in its sole discretion, that: (i) Executive has breached Executive’s
obligations under this Agreement; (ii) Executive has failed to perform duties assigned to Executive in a manner satisfactory to the Company, subject to the obligation of the Company to provide Executive with prior notice providing reasonable
detail of the bases for the unsatisfactory performance and an opportunity to correct the performance deficiencies; (iii) Executive has engaged in acts of dishonesty or moral turpitude, or any unlawful conduct; or (iv) Executive has engaged

 5.2 Termination For Reasons Other Than Cause: 

(A) Termination With Notice Period: Either party may terminate Executive’s employment for any reason other than for
Cause, Disability or Death by giving the other party three (3) months’ notice in writing; terminations for Cause are governed by Section 5.1 above, for Disability by Section 5.2(C) below and Death by Section 5.2(D) below.

 (i) By The Company: 

(a) Continuation of Compensation and Benefits: In the event that the Company provides notice to Executive under this
Section 5.2(A), then for the duration of the Notice Period Executive shall continue to receive the base salary that he/she received immediately prior to the notice of termination and shall continue to be eligible to receive all benefits to
which he/she is entitled as an employee of the Company. Executive shall not be entitled to any bonus (either in full or pro rata) otherwise payable after the date on which notice is given, nor except as provided below shall Executive receive any
Compensation or be eligible for any benefits after the Termination Date, including but not limited to salary and medical, dental, life and disability benefits. Executive will have the right to elect to continue his/her health and dental insurance
after the Termination Date to the extent permitted by COBRA. Except as provided below, any COBRA coverage will be at Executive’s own expense and is not the responsibility of the Company. 

(b) Severance: Provided Executive signs and delivers, and does not revoke, a general release in a form acceptable to
the Company in its sole discretion, (x) Executive shall be entitled to receive a severance payment equal to two (2) weeks of base salary for every full year that Executive was employed by the Group, subject to a minimum payment of twenty
six (26) weeks base salary and a maximum payment of fifty two (52) weeks base salary, and (y) if Executive properly elects COBRA coverage, the Company will make payments to the insurance provider(s) equal to the amount due for
Executive’s COBRA coverage payments for a period of time equal to the number of weeks of Executive’s severance payments or until Executive is eligible to receive health benefits under another medical plan, whichever is sooner (by way of
example only, if Executive is entitled to a severance payment equal to thirty weeks base salary because he/she has been 

  
 5 








 
employed by the Company for 15 years, the Company will make monthly payments to the COBRA insurance provider for the first thirty weeks of COBRA coverage, assuming Executive has executed and not
revoked the release and has not otherwise become eligible to receive benefits under another medical plan). Executive agrees to give the Company notice immediately if he/she becomes eligible to receive benefits under another medical plan. The
severance payment based on tenure with the Company shall be paid in a lump sum promptly following the expiration of the Notice Period and the expiration of any revocation period to which Executive may be entitled as provided in the release
agreement. The release agreement will provide, among other things, for the general release of any and all claims that Executive may have against the Group and its officers, directors, employees and agents, whether known or unknown, and whether at
common law or arising under any statute, including but not limited to statutes relating to discrimination and whistleblowing, and also will require Executive to keep the terms of the release confidential, subject to appropriate carve outs as
required by law. Executive shall not be entitled to any other payment of any kind, except (a) as expressly provided in this Agreement, (b) earned wages or accrued vacation time that remain due and payable, and (c) benefits to the
extent that Executive is entitled to accrued benefits under the express terms of any plan governing such benefits and to the extent that such benefits cannot be cancelled under either the terms of the relevant plan documents or applicable law. 

(ii) By Executive: In the event that Executive provides notice to the Company under Section 5.2(A), Executive shall not be
entitled to any bonus (either in full or pro rata) otherwise payable after the date on which notice is given or any other compensation, payment or benefits of any kind, except (a) for the duration of the Notice Period, Executive shall continue
to receive the base salary that he/she received immediately prior to the notice of termination and shall continue to be eligible to receive all benefits to which he/she is entitled as an employee of the Company, (b) earned wages or accrued
vacation time that remain due and payable after the Termination Date, and (c) benefits payable after the Termination Date to the extent that Executive is entitled to accrued benefits under the express terms of any plan governing such benefits
and to the extent that such benefits cannot be cancelled under either the terms of the relevant plan documents or applicable law. Executive will have the right to elect to continue his/her health and dental insurance after the Termination Date to
the extent permitted by COBRA. Such coverage shall be at Executive’s expense and is not the responsibility of the Company. 

  
 6 








 (B) Conduct During the Notice Period: During the Notice Period, Executive
remains employed by the Company and shall not commence employment with any other employer, and is subject to all the obligations, rules, policies and practices of the Company, including the obligation to act solely in the best interest of the
Company. During the Notice Period, Executive shall perform such duties and tasks as the Company may assign to Executive, provided however that the Company reserves the right to have Executive stay away from the Company’s premises and not
contact any Group employee or Client. 
 (C) Disability: The Company may terminate Executive’s employment on
written notice to Executive that the Company has determined that a Disability of Executive has occurred. Should the Company terminate this Agreement by reason of Executive’s Disability, all Compensation and benefits will cease effective on the
Termination Date, and Executive shall have no right to any further payments or benefits except (a) to the extent that Executive is entitled to wages, accrued but unused vacation time or accrued benefits under the express terms of any plan
governing such benefits, and (b) a pro-rata bonus for the period when Executive was performing his/her regular duties on a full-time basis. 

(D) Death: Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death. All Compensation and
benefits will cease effective on the date of Executive’s death, except that Executive’s estate shall be eligible to receive Executive’s bonus, if any, for the period up through Executive’s death; in the event Executive’s
death is prior to the end of a Compensation Year, the bonus shall be pro rated based upon the number of days Executive worked during the Compensation Year. 

(E) Share Incentive Scheme: The Company will inform Old Mutual plc that Executive’s employment has terminated, and
any unvested shares granted under the Restricted Share Plan, the Share Reward Plan and any other plan under which shares may be granted to Executive (collectively, the “Plan”) will be released to Executive at the discretion of the Old
Mutual Board following the Termination Date, subject to any terms of the Plan and subject to any statutory withholdings. 

(F) IRC Section 409A Compliance: The parties intend that the payments and benefits to which Executive could become
entitled in connection with a termination of employment shall comply with or are exempt from the definition of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the 

  
 7 








 
Internal Revenue Code. In this regard, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all cash amounts that become payable under this Agreement shall be paid no later than
March 15 of the year following the year in which such amounts are earned or become payable. In the event that it is determined that the terms of this Agreement do not comply with Section 409A of the Code, the parties will negotiate
reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of this Agreement so that it complies (in a manner that preserves the economic value of the payments and benefits to which Executive may become entitled) so that payments are made within the time
period and in a manner permitted by the applicable Treasury Regulations. 
 5.3 Upon termination (or suspension) of Executive’s
Employment, regardless of the reason, Executive shall deliver to the Company all books, documents and materials described in Section 6 below, and all computers, blackberries, other personal data devices, phones, credit cards, keys and other
property of the Group that are in Executive’s possession or control. 
 5.4 Termination of Executive’s employment with the Company
for any reason shall constitute Executive’s resignation as an officer, director, trustee and/or any and all other positions held by him with any subsidiary or any pooled investment vehicle organized or advised by the Group, effective
automatically. Executive shall execute any and all documents and take any and all action reasonably requested by the Group to acknowledge and effect such resignations. 

6. FURTHER COVENANTS. 
 6.1 All Business to be
the property of the Company; Assignment of Intellectual Property. 
 (A) Executive agrees that any and all presently
existing investment advisory and insurance business of the Company and all business developed by Executive or any other employee of the Company, including without limitation all investment advisory and insurance contracts, distribution agreements,
fees, commissions, compensation records, performance records, Client Lists, agreements and any other incident of any business developed or sought by the Company or earned or carried on by Executive during his/her employment with the Company are and
shall be the exclusive property of the Company for its sole use, and (where applicable) shall be payable directly to the Company. Executive grants to the Company Executive’s entire right, title and interest throughout the world, if any, in and

 8 








 
acquired by Executive solely, jointly or in common with others during the period of Executive’s employment by the Company, that relate to the Company’s business as it was or is now
rendered or as it may, from time to time, hereafter be rendered or proposed to be rendered during the Employment Period. 

(B) Any inventions and any copyrightable material developed by Executive in the scope of his/her employment with the Company

thereafter, use for Executive’s own benefit or disclose to or use for the benefit of any person outside the Company, any information not already lawfully available to the public concerning Confidential Information, whether Executive has such

of the Company, including information stored electronically, shall be the sole property of the Company. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Confidential Information has been and will be developed by the effort and expense of the Company; that
such Confidential Information has economic value to the Company and would have significant economic value to the Company’s competitors if divulged; that the Confidential Information is not available to the Company’s competitors; and that
keeping the Confidential Information from the Company’s competitors has economic value to the Company. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment in any manner or for any reason, Executive shall promptly surrender to the Company all

and will be developed by the Company and would have significant economic value to the Company’s competitors if divulged; that the Client Information is not available to the Company’s competitors; that keeping the Client Information
confidential from the Company’s competitors has economic value to the Company; and that the Company takes reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of the Client Information.

other term or provision of such covenant or contractual provision, the covenant or contractual provision shall be construed to the maximum breadth determined to be legal and enforceable and the illegality or unenforceability of any one covenant or

 6.11 Executive
acknowledges that his/her agreement to comply with these restrictions was an inducement for the Company to continue to employ Executive and to enter into this Agreement with Executive.

 7.1 This Agreement and any disputes
relating to the parties’ relationship or the termination of that relationship, whether arising in law or equity and whether based on contract, tort or statutory rights, shall be deemed to have been made in the state of Maryland, shall take
effect as an instrument under seal, and the validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal law of the state of Maryland, without giving effect to conflict-of-law
principles. Both parties agree that any action, demand, claim or counterclaim (collectively, any “Legal Action”) relating to this Agreement or any other disputes relating to the parties’ relationship or the termination of that

 12

venue for the resolution of any dispute. Both parties further agree that any disputes relating to this Agreement or any other disputes relating to the parties’ relationship or the termination of that relationship, whether based on contract,
tort or statutory rights, shall be resolved by a judge alone, and both parties waive and forever renounce the right to a trial before a civil jury. 

7.2 This agreement may be executed in counterparts. 

7.3 This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all oral or written employment, consulting or similar

relying on any oral or written representation, promise, agreement or understanding that is not set forth in this Agreement, and both parties expressly disclaim any reliance on any oral or written representation, promise, agreement or understanding
not set forth in this Agreement. 
 7.4 This Agreement may not be amended or modified other than by a written agreement executed by both
parties. The writing executed by the Company must be by the CEO of Old Mutual. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of both parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any corporation with which or into which
the Company may be merged or which may succeed to its assets or business, although the obligations of Executive are personal, are not assignable and may be performed only by him/her. 

7.5 All notices and other communications required under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other

 or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in writing in
accordance with this provision. Notices and communications shall be effective when delivered to the addressee or if addressee refuses delivery, on the date delivery was first attempted. 

7.6 Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to
assert any right Executive or the Company may have hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right under this Agreement. 

7.7 All provisions in this Agreement that relate to compensation or benefits (including but not limited to, salary, bonuses and employee
benefits) are operative only to the extent that Executive continues to be employed by the Company as of the time that the payment or award of any of the above would be due except as otherwise provided for in Section 5 or under the express terms
of any benefit plans. If Executive is no longer employed as of that time, none of the Compensation or benefits otherwise due shall be payable to Executive except (a) as expressly provided in Section 5 of this Agreement, (b) for earned
but unpaid wages or accrued but not used vacation or (c) under the express terms of any benefit plans to the extent that such benefits cannot be cancelled under either the terms of the relevant plan documents or applicable law. 

7.8 Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedy at law for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be
inadequate and that for breach of such provisions the Company shall, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to it at law or in equity or as provided in this Agreement, be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive
relief as well as to enforce its rights by an action for specific performance to the extent permitted by law. Executive expressly consents to the granting of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and/or specific performance for
breach of this Agreement. 
 7.9 The Company shall have the right to set off any damages incurred by the Group against any amounts due to

remedies as set forth in this Agreement or in law or equity, Executive agrees that if Executive engages in any activities prohibited by this Agreement, Executive will pay over to the Company all compensation or revenue received in connection with
such activities. 

  
 14 








 7.10 All compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement shall be subject to withholding
by the Company of all applicable taxes. The parties further understand and agree that should any relevant law (including without limitation any regulatory interpretations thereof) change between the time of execution of this Agreement and the
payment of the various payments to Executive called for by the Agreement, the parties will revise the Agreement accordingly in a good faith attempt to ensure ongoing compliance with such law upon mutual agreement of the parties, staying as
consistent as possible to the financial and other business terms of this Agreement, but in any case Executive hereby agrees that all personal income taxes on his/her compensation and benefits under this Agreement and all penalties and interest with
respect to such personal income taxes, if any, are his/her own responsibility. 
 7.11 Executive and the Company represent and acknowledge
that the consideration that each has received under this Agreement is sufficient and adequate for the obligations that each has agreed to undertake, and expressly waives any right to assert that they have not received adequate consideration for
agreeing to the obligations undertaken in this Agreement. 
 7.12 Executive acknowledges and represents that he/she understands his/her
