      Stock Options and Deferred
Stock Units

       

      SECTION
2.01. Stock Option
Conversion.  (a)  Effective immediately upon the
Distribution, each option to purchase Brink’s Common Stock granted under The
Brink’s Company 1988 Stock Option Plan, The Brink’s Company 2005 Equity
Incentive Plan, The Brink’s Company Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Plan or The
Brink’s Company Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (collectively, the
“Brink’s Stock
Plans”), whether vested or unvested, that is held, immediately prior to
the Distribution, by any (i) BHS Employee, (ii) former employee of BHS or
any of its Subsidiaries (other than any such individual who was employed
directly by Brink’s or any of its Subsidiaries (other than BHS or any of its
Subsidiaries) at any time following such individual’s most recent direct
employment with BHS or any of its Subsidiaries) (each such former employee, a
“Former BHS
Employee”) or (iii) non-employee member of the board of directors of
Brink’s who, in connection with the Distribution, ceases to be a member of the
board of directors of Brink’s and becomes a member of the board of directors of
BHS (each such director, a “Transferring
Director”, and each such option, a “Brink’s Stock
Option”) shall be converted into an option to acquire, on the same terms
and conditions as were applicable under such Brink’s Stock Option, the number of
shares of BHS Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) determined
by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Brink’s Common Stock subject to such
Brink’s Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution for which such
Brink’s Stock Option shall not theretofore have been exercised by (B) the Option
Ratio (as defined below) (each, as so adjusted, a “Converted BHS Stock
Option”).  The exercise price per share of each Converted BHS
Stock Option shall be equal to the per share exercise price for the shares of
Brink’s Common Stock otherwise purchasable pursuant to the corresponding Brink’s
Stock Option divided by the Option Ratio, and rounded up to the nearest whole
cent.  The adjustments provided in this Section 2.01(a) with respect
to any Brink’s Stock Options, whether or not they are “incentive stock options”
as defined in Section 422 of the Code, are intended to be effected in a manner
that is consistent with Section 424(a) and Section 409A of the
Code.

       

      (b) For
purposes of this Agreement, “Option Ratio” shall
mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the closing price per share of
Brink’s Common Stock on the NYSE Composite Transactions Tape trading with “due
bills” on the Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the closing
price per share of BHS Common Stock on the NYSE Composite Transactions Tape
trading on a “when issued” basis on the Distribution Date.

Options and all Liabilities related thereto under one or more new equity
incentive plans of BHS to be adopted by BHS prior to the
Distribution.

       

      SECTION
2.02. Replacement of Deferred
Stock Units.  (a) Effective immediately upon the Distribution,
each deferred stock unit with respect to Brink’s Common Stock granted under The
Brink’s Company Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Plan that is held, immediately
prior to the Distribution, by any Transferring Director (each such deferred
stock unit, a “Brink’s
Deferred Stock Unit”) shall be forfeited pursuant to the terms of such
Brink’s Deferred Stock Unit and replaced by a deferred stock unit with respect
to the number of shares of BHS Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole
share) determined by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Brink’s Common
Stock subject to such Brink’s Deferred Stock Unit immediately prior to the
Distribution by (ii) the Option Ratio (each, as so adjusted, a “Replacement BHS Deferred
Stock Unit”).  Each Replacement BHS Deferred Stock Unit shall
have the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the corresponding
Brink’s Deferred Stock Unit.

       

      (b)  Effective immediately
upon the Distribution, BHS shall grant the Replacement BHS Deferred Stock Units
under one or more new equity incentive plans of BHS to be adopted by BHS prior
to the Distribution.

       

      SECTION
2.03. Form
S-8.  As soon as reasonably practicable following the
Distribution, BHS shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration
statement on Form S-8 (or another appropriate form) registering a number of
shares of BHS Common Stock equal to the number of shares subject to the
Converted BHS Stock Options and the Replacement BHS Deferred Stock
Units.  Any such registration statement shall be kept effective (and
the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses required thereby shall be
maintained) as long as any Converted BHS Stock Options or Replacement BHS
Deferred Stock Units may remain outstanding.

       

      SECTION
2.04. Notices.  As
soon as reasonably practicable following the Distribution, BHS shall deliver to
the holders of Converted BHS Stock Options and Replacement BHS Deferred Stock
Units appropriate notices setting forth such holders’ rights in respect thereof
and indicating that such Converted BHS Stock Options and Replacement BHS
Deferred Stock Units shall be assumed by BHS, in the case of the Converted BHS
Stock Options, or granted by BHS, in the case of the Replacement BHS Deferred
Stock Units, and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the
Brink’s Stock Options and Brink’s Deferred Stock Units they replace except as
expressly provided herein.

       

      SECTION
2.05. Section
16.  The Parties shall take all reasonable steps as may be
required to cause the transactions contemplated by this Article II and any other
acquisitions of BHS equity securities (including derivative securities) or
dispositions of Brink’s equity securities (including derivative securities) in
connection with this Agreement or the Separation Agreement by each individual
who is a director or officer of Brink’s or BHS subject to Section 16 of the
Exchange Act to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange
Act.

Plans.  Brink’s shall retain, or shall cause the applicable
other members of the Brink’s Group or the applicable pension plans of Brink’s or
any such other members to retain, sponsorship of, and all assets and Liabilities
arising out of or relating to, The Brink’s Company Pension-Retirement Plan and
The Brink’s Company Pension Equalization Plan (together, the “Brink’s Defined Benefit
Pension Plans”), and shall make, or cause to be made, payments to current
or former employees of the members of the BHS Group with vested rights
thereunder in accordance with the terms of the applicable plans as in effect
from time to time.  For purposes of the vesting provisions of the
Brink’s Defined Benefit Pension Plans, BHS Employees shall continue while
employed by any member of the BHS Group following the Distribution to be treated
as employees of a member of the Brink’s Group.

       

      SECTION
3.02. U.S. Tax-Qualified 401(k)

BHS shall have in effect a defined contribution plan that includes a qualified
cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the
Code (the “BHS 401(k)
Plan”) that will provide benefits to BHS Employees and Former BHS
Employees participating in The Brink’s Company 401(k) Plan (the “Brink’s 401(k)
Plan”).  Each BHS Employee and Former BHS Employee
participating in the Brink’s 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the effectiveness
of the BHS 401(k) Plan shall become a participant in the BHS 401(k) Plan as of
such effectiveness.  BHS shall cause each BHS Employee to be credited
with all service accrued with Brink’s and its Subsidiaries prior to such
transfer for all purposes under the BHS 401(k) Plan.

       

      (b) No later
than the Distribution, Brink’s shall cause to be transferred to the
BHS 401(k) Plan, and BHS shall cause the BHS 401(k) Plan to accept, an
amount equal to the account balances of all BHS Employees and Former BHS
Employees who are participants in the Brink’s 401(k) Plan.  Such
transfer shall include any promissory notes evidencing outstanding loan balances
under the Brink’s 401(k) Plan with respect to such account
balances.  Brink’s shall debit the account of each such individual
under the Brink’s 401(k) Plan by the amount transferred for the benefit of such
individual to the BHS 401(k) Plan, and BHS shall allocate the amounts
transferred to the BHS 401(k) Plan to the account of each such individual by
crediting such account with the amount debited from such individual’s account
under the Brink’s 401(k) Plan.  Following the foregoing transfer, BHS
and/or the BHS 401(k) Plan shall assume all Liabilities of Brink’s, the Brink’s
Group and their respective Affiliates under the Brink’s 401(k) Plan with respect
to all participants in the Brink’s 401(k) Plan whose balances were transferred
to the BHS 401(k) Plan and their beneficiaries, and Brink’s, the Brink’s Group
and their respective Affiliates and the Brink’s 401(k) Plan shall have no
Liabilities to provide such participants with benefits under the Brink’s 401(k)
Plan following such transfer.  Brink’s and BHS shall use reasonable
efforts to minimize the duration of any “blackout period” imposed in connection
with the transfer of account balances from the Brink’s 401(k) Plan to the BHS
401(k) Plan.

       

      SECTION
3.03. Director Non-Qualified
Deferred Compensation Plans.  Brink’s shall retain, or shall
cause the applicable other members of the Brink’s Group to retain, sponsorship
of, and all assets and Liabilities arising out of or relating to, The Brink’s

Deferral of Directors’ Fees, and shall make, or cause to be made, payments to
all participants in such plans, including those who are current or former
directors of BHS, in accordance with the terms of the applicable
plan.

      SECTION
3.04. Employee Non-Qualified
Deferred Compensation Plans.  Effective immediately upon the
Distribution, BHS shall have in effect a deferred compensation plan (the “BHS Employee Deferred
Compensation Program”) that will provide benefits to BHS Employees and
Former BHS Employees previously participating in The Brink’s Company Key
Employees’ Deferred Compensation Program (the “Brink’s Employee Deferred
Compensation Program”).  Each BHS Employee and Former BHS
Employee participating in the Brink’s Employee Deferred Compensation Program on
the Distribution Date shall become a participant in the BHS Deferred
Compensation Program on the day immediately following the Distribution Date (the
“Ex-Dividend
Date”). BHS shall cause each BHS Employee and Former BHS Employee to be
credited with all service accrued with Brink’s and its Subsidiaries prior to the
Ex-Dividend Date for purposes of the vesting provisions of the BHS Employee
Deferred Compensation Program.  As of the Ex-Dividend Date, all cash
amounts deferred by BHS Employees and Former BHS Employees in the Brink’s
Employee Deferred Compensation Program not previously converted into units
credited to the notional accounts of such BHS Employees and Former BHS Employees
shall be converted into units pursuant to the terms of the Brink’s Employee
Deferred Compensation Program.  Immediately thereafter, BHS shall
assume and be solely responsible for all benefits of the BHS Employees and
Former BHS Employees under The Brink’s Employees Deferred Compensation Program
with respect all units then standing to the credit of the notional accounts of
such BHS Employees and Former BHS Employees (“Converted Units”),
and the Converted Units shall be debited from such
accounts.  Concurrently therewith, BHS shall establish notional
accounts under the BHS Employee Deferred Compensation Program for each such BHS
Employee and Former BHS Employee and shall credit a number of units to the
account of each such BHS Employee and Former BHS Employee determined by
multiplying the number of Converted Units previously in such BHS Employee or
Former BHS Employee’s account in the Brink’s Employee Deferred Compensation
Program by the Option Ratio.  Following BHS’s assumption of benefits
pursuant to this Section 3.04, none of Brink’s, the Brink’s Group and their
respective Affiliates shall have any further Liability with respect to any
benefits assumed by BHS pursuant to this Section 3.04 and BHS shall indemnify
Brink’s, the Brink’s Group and their respective Affiliates from and against any
claims made by BHS Employees or Former BHS Employees or their dependents or
beneficiaries with respect to such benefits.

are in effect immediately prior to the date of such spin-off (the “Cafeteria Plan Transition
Date”).  From and after the Cafeteria Plan Transition Date, BHS
shall retain or assume and be solely responsible for all claims by BHS Employees
under the Brink’s Cafeteria Plan, whether incurred prior to, on or after the
Cafeteria Plan Transition Date, that have not been paid in full as of the
Cafeteria Plan Transition Date.

       

      SECTION

practicable, the BHS Canada Benefits Plans shall provide to such BHS Employees
coverage that is comparable to the coverage that was provided to them under the
corresponding Brink’s Canada Benefits Plans immediately prior to the Canada
Benefits Plan Transition Date.  BHS shall, and shall cause its
third-party insurance providers to, (A) waive all limitations as to preexisting
conditions, exclusions and waiting periods and actively-at-work requirements
with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such BHS
Employees and their dependents under the BHS Canada Benefits Plans to the extent
previously satisfied under the applicable corresponding Brink’s Canada Benefits
