|Re: | MF Global  Employment Agreement
|--- | --------------------------------

Dear James:

This is your amended and restated EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this
Agreement) with MF Global Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (MF Global). This Agreement sets forth the terms of your employment with MF Global and its subsidiaries and affiliates (together, the MF Global
Group).



|1. | Terms Schedule
|-- | --------------

Some of
the terms of your employment are in the attached schedule (your Schedule), which is part of this Agreement.



|2. | Term of Your Employment
|-- | -----------------------

The term of this Agreement began on the Commencement Date set forth in your Schedule and will end at the close of business on March 31, 2011 (the Agreement Term). All references to your
employment in this Agreement will refer to your employment during the Agreement Term.

Commencing April 1, 2011, the
Agreement Term will extend for successive one (1) year periods upon written notice by MF Global to you not later than three (3) months prior to the expiration of the initial or any successive term of this Agreement (unless you provide
written notice of non-extension within one (1) month after such notice). Upon the expiration of the Agreement Term (taking into account any extensions), you will continue to be an employee of MF Global at-will (unless and until MF
Global or you gives written notice to the other of termination) subject to any minimum requirements.

The provisions of
Sections 5(d), 7, 8, 9, 11, 12 and 13, and the provisions of the Schedule applicable thereto, shall survive the termination of the Agreement Term and any concurrent or subsequent termination of your employment thereunder and shall continue to be in
effect thereafter to the extent applicable, provided that Section 9 shall survive only respecting a change in ownership or control contemplated thereunder occurring on or prior to such termination irrespective of when payments thereunder may be
made; Section 6 and the provisions of the Schedule applicable thereto, shall survive any termination of your employment occurring prior to the expiration of the Agreement Term; and Section 6(g), and the provisions of the Schedule
applicable thereto, shall survive any termination of your employment in connection with the expiration of the Agreement Term.



---

|3. | Your Position, Performance and Other Activities
|-- | -----------------------------------------------



| | (a) | Position. You will be employed in the position stated in your Schedule. You acknowledge that because of the autonomous nature of your role the duration of your
working time is not measured or monitored or determined by MF Global so that the limit on weekly working time set out in Regulation 4 of the Working Time Regulations 1998 (or such other regulations as may from time to time come into force) does not
apply to your employment.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Authority, Responsibilities, and Reporting. Your authority, responsibilities and reporting relationships will correspond to your position and will include any
particular authority, responsibilities and reporting relationships consistent with your position that MF Globals Board of Directors (the Board) or any officer of the MF Global Group to whom you report may assign to you from
time to time. Any specific reporting relationship provided in your Schedule replaces the relationship provided in this Section 3(b), and any specific authority or responsibility provided in your Schedule is in addition to that provided in this
Section 3(b). On the termination of your employment (howsoever arising) or on either MF Global or you having served notice of such termination, you shall at the request of MF Global resign from office as a director of any member of the MF
Global Group and all offices held by you in any member of the MF Global Group and shall transfer without payment to MF Global or as MF Global may direct any third party any shares or other securities held by you in MF Global or any member of the MF
Global Group as a nominee or trustee for MF Global or any member of the MF Global Group and deliver to MF Global the related certificates, provided however that such resignation shall be without prejudice to any claims which you may have against MF
Global or any member of the MF Global Group arising out of the termination of the employment.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Performance. During your employment, you will devote substantially all of your business time and attention to the MF Global Group and will use good faith efforts
to discharge your responsibilities under this Agreement to the best of your ability.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Other Activities. During your employment, you will not render any business, commercial or professional services to any non-member of the MF Global Group.
However, you may (1) serve, with the prior written approval of the Chief Executive Officer of MF Global, on civic, educational or charitable boards or committees and, with the prior written approval of the Board, on other corporate boards or
committees (which approval previously was granted for any boards and committees set forth in the Schedule), (2) manage personal investments, or (3) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions, so
long asthe activities in clauses (1) through (3) above do not significantly interfere with your performance of your responsibilities under this Agreement.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4. | Your Compensation
|-- | -----------------



| | (a) | Salary. You will receive an annual base salary (your Salary). The starting amount of your Salary is in your Schedule. MF Global will review
your Salary at least annually and may increase it at any time for any reason. However, your Salary may not be decreased at any time (including after any increase) other than as part of an across-the-board salary reduction that applies in the same
manner to all similarly situated executives, and any increase in your Salary will not reduce or limit any other obligation to you under this Agreement. Your Salary will be paid in accordance with the MF Global Groups normal practices for
similarly situated executives.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|                  |  |

|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 2



---

| | (b) | Bonus. You will be eligible to receive an annual bonus (your Bonus) for each fiscal year of MF Global ending during the continuation of your
employment, which may be paid in a combination of cash and equity-based awards. The amount and form of your Bonus, including the amount payable upon achievement of target-level performance, for each fiscal year (if any) will be determined by the
Board (or a committee of the Board) or the person to whom you directly report and paid in a manner consistent with other similarly situated executives.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Other Executive Compensation Plans. You will be entitled to participate in all of the MF Global Groups executive compensation plans, including any
management incentive plans, long-term compensation plans, equity compensation option plans and deferred compensation plans, on a basis that is at least as favorable as that provided to other similarly situated executives of the MF Global Group.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5. | Your Benefits
|-- | -------------



| | (a) | Employee Benefit Plans. During your employment, you will be entitled to participate in the MF Global Groups employee benefit and welfare plans, including
plans providing retirement benefits or medical, dental, hospitalization, life or disability insurance, on a basis that is at least as favorable as that provided to other similarly situated executives of the MF Global Group. Your participation in
these plans is subject to the relevant plan rules.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Vacation. You will be entitled to paid annual vacation on a basis that is at least as favorable as that provided to other similarly situated executives of the MF
Global Group.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Business Expenses. You will be reimbursed for all business and entertainment expenses incurred by you in performing your responsibilities under this Agreement.
However, your reimbursement will be subject to the MF Global Groups normal practices for similarly situated executives, provided that such reimbursements pursuant to this Section 5(c) will be paid no later than the end of the
calendar year following the year in which such reimbursable expenses were incurred.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted under the Bye-Laws of MF Global as in effect on your Execution Date set forth below and with any subsequent
changes mandated by applicable law (Bye-Laws) and subject to any limitations imposed by applicable legislation, MF Global will indemnify you against any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, against you arising by reason of your status as a director, officer, employee and/or agent of the MF Global Group during your employment, and for your period of employment you are an Officer as provided
in the Bye-Laws. You will at all relevant times be covered under any contract of directors and officers liability insurance that covers directors of MF Global (other than any coverage that specifically covers solely independent directors).
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | Additional Benefits. During your employment, you will be provided the additional benefits stated in your Schedule.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6. | Termination of Your Employment
|-- | ------------------------------



| | (a) | No Reason Required. You or MF Global may terminate your employment at any time for any reason, or for no reason, subject to compliance with Section 6(c).
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|                  |  |       
|----------------- |  | ------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 3

| | (b) | Related Definitions.
| | --- | --------------------



| | (1) | Cause means any of the following: (A) your continued and willful failure to perform substantially your responsibilities to the MF Global Group
under this Agreement, after demand for substantial performance has been given by the Board or any officer of the MF Global Group to whom you report that specifically identifies how you have not substantially performed your responsibilities;
(B) your willful engagement in illegal conduct or in gross misconduct in connection with the business of the MF Global Group; (C) your conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or comparable offence in any
relevant jurisdiction; (D) your willful and material breach of the MF Global Groups written code of conduct and business ethics or other written policy, procedure or guideline relating to personal conduct in effect from time to time or
Section 7 or 8; (E) your willful attempt to obstruct or willful failure to cooperate with any investigation authorized by the Board or any governmental or self-regulatory authority; or (F) your disqualification or bar by any
governmental or self-regulatory authority from serving in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement or your loss of any governmental or self-regulatory license that is reasonably necessary for you to perform your responsibilities to the MF Global
Group under this Agreement, if (i) the disqualification, bar or loss continues for more than 60 days and (ii) during that period the MF Global Group uses its good faith efforts to cause the disqualification or bar to be lifted or
the license replaced. While any disqualification, bar or loss continues during your employment, you will serve in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement to whatever extent legally permissible and, if your employment is not permissible, you will
be placed on leave (which will be paid in full to the extent legally permissible).
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For purposes of this
definition, (i) no act or omission by you will be willful unless it is made by you in bad faith or without a reasonable belief that your act or omission was in the best interests of the MF Global Group and (ii) any act or
omission by you based on authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board will be deemed made in good faith and in the best interests of the MF Global Group.

MF Global must give you notice and 10 days to cure the first event constituting Cause under Section 6(b)(1)(D) or (E) (unless the
event cannot be cured).



| | (2) | Good Reason means any of the following: (A) any material and adverse change in your position with the MF Global Group; (B) any material
diminution in your authority or responsibilities as provided in Section 3(b) (and your Schedule); (C) any material diminution in your Base Salary (other than as permitted by Section 4(a)); (D) MF Global requiring you to be based
at any office more than 35 miles from the place of employment stated in your Schedule (however, travel required by MF Global in connection with your duties will not constitute Good Reason); or (E) any material breach of this Agreement by MF
Global.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you do not give a Termination Notice within 90 days after the initial existence of an event
constituting Good Reason, the event will no longer constitute Good Reason. In addition, (i) an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure by MF Global under Section 6(b)(2)(A) through (C) that is not in bad faith and is cured
promptly on your giving MF Global notice will not



|                  |  |       
|----------------- |  | ------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 4

constitute Good Reason and (ii) you must give MF Global notice and 30 days to cure the event constituting Good Reason.



| | (3) | Disability means your absence from your responsibilities with MF Global on a full-time basis for 130 business days in any consecutive 12 months as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness or injury. If MF Global determines in good faith that your Disability has occurred, it may give you a Termination Notice. If within 30 days of the Termination Notice you do not return to
full-time performance of your responsibilities, your employment will terminate. If you do return to full-time performance in that 30-day period, the Termination Notice will be cancelled for all purposes of this Agreement. Except as provided in this
Section 6(b)(3), your incapacity due to mental or physical illness or injury will not affect MF Globals obligations under this Agreement (including that such illness or injury will not constitute a basis for Cause).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Advance Notice Generally Required.
| | --- | ----------------------------------



| | (1) | To terminate your employment, either you or MF Global must provide a Termination Notice to the other. A Termination Notice is a written notice that
states the specific provision of this Agreement on which termination is based, including, if applicable, the specific clause of the definition of Cause or Good Reason and a reasonably detailed description of the facts that permit termination under
that clause; provided that the failure to include any fact in a Termination Notice that contributes to a showing of Cause or Good Reason does not preclude either party from asserting that fact in enforcing its rights under this Agreement.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | You and MF Global agree to provide 60 days advance Termination Notice of any termination, unless your employment is terminated by MF Global for Cause or
because of your Disability or death. Accordingly, the effective date of early termination of your employment will be 60 days after Termination Notice is given except that (A) the effective date will be the date of MF Globals
Termination Notice if your employment is terminated by MF Global for Cause, although MF Global may provide a later effective date in the Termination Notice, (B) the effective date will be 30 days after Termination Notice is given if your
employment is terminated because of your Disability, and (C) the effective date will be the time of your death if your employment is terminated because of your death.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | With Good Reason or Without Cause. If MF Global terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason prior to the expiration
of the Agreement Term:
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (1) | MF Global will pay the following as of the actual date of termination of your employment: (A) your unpaid Salary through the date of termination,
(B) your Salary for any accrued but unused vacation through the date of termination, and (C) any accrued expense reimbursements and other cash entitlements (including for accrued expense reimbursement for which supporting documentation is
submitted within a reasonable time after termination of your employment) (together, your Accrued Compensation). In addition, MF Global will pay you any amounts and provide you any benefits that are required, or to which you are
entitled, under any plan, contract or

| | arrangement of the MF Global Group as of the end of your employment (together, the Other Benefits).
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | MF Global will pay your Earned Bonus. Your Earned Bonus means any earned but unpaid Bonus for the fiscal year ending upon or immediately before the
end of your employment.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (3) | MF Global will pay your Accrued Bonus. Your Accrued Bonus means, to the extent not previously awarded or paid, your Bonus for the fiscal year in
which your termination of employment occurs based on the achievement of actual performance goals (taking into account, to the extent consistent with any applicable requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, the status of such performance goals
at the date of termination and disregarding any subjective performance goals and any other exercise by the Board or any committee thereof of negative discretion) multiplied by the number of days of your employment since the fiscal year ending
before such date of termination divided by 365.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (4) | MF Global will pay your Severance Pay. Your Severance Pay means (A) the sum of your Salary and your annual target Bonus for the fiscal year in
which the Termination Notice is given (or if such target Bonus has not yet been established for such fiscal year, the target Bonus for the fiscal year prior to the year in which the Termination Notice is given) multiplied by (B) the
severance multiplier provided on your Schedule (your Severance Multiplier).
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (5) | All service-based vesting (and, if applicable, non-performance-based exercise) conditions relating to share options, restricted shares and other equity-based
compensation awarded by MF Global to you will be deemed fully satisfied. The settlement of the awards will continue in accordance with the relevant award agreement and, if applicable, performance terms will continue in effect and be measured without
regard to your termination. Any securities so issued or awarded will remain subject to such restrictions on transfer as are required by applicable securities laws. The benefit provided for by this Section 6(d)(5) is referred to as
Accelerated Vesting.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (6) | During the number of years equal to your Severance Multiplier, you will be entitled to life insurance coverage on a basis that is substantially equivalent to that
available as an active-employee before the date of termination unless you become eligible to receive substantially similar or improved life insurance benefits from another employer (whether or not you accept such benefits). You will notify MF Global
of your eligibility for life insurance benefits from a subsequent employer within 30 days of such eligibility. Following such period of continued coverage, you will be entitled to continue such life insurance coverage at your sole expense in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable policy.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | For Cause or Without Good Reason. If MF Global terminates your employment for Cause or you terminate your employment without Good Reason, MF Global will pay your
Accrued Compensation and your Other Benefits only.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | For Your Disability or Death. If your employment terminates as a result of your Death or Disability, MF Global will pay your Accrued Compensation, Earned Bonus
and Accrued Bonus and will provide your Other Benefits and Accelerated Vesting. In addition, MF Global will pay you an amount equal to your annual Salary then in effect (your Disability/Death Pay).
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|                  |  |       
|----------------- |  | ------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 6



---

| | (g) | On Expiration of this Agreement. If your employment terminates for any reason in connection with the expiration of the Agreement Term, you will receive your
Accrued Compensation, your Other Benefits, your Earned Bonus and your Accrued Bonus (except that all service-based vesting conditions of any equity-based award constituting part of such Accrued Bonus will be deemed fully satisfied). In addition, you
will receive the other termination benefits set forth in your Schedule.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (h) | Condition. Within 10 days after the date of your termination of employment pursuant to Section 6(d), (f) or (g), MF Global will tender to you (or your
estate) an agreement or agreements releasing from all liability (other than the payments and benefits contemplated by this Agreement) each member of the MF Global Group and any of their respective past or present officers, directors, employees or
agents, in all relevant jurisdictions and imposing no other covenants upon you than are then effective under this Agreement or as provided in this Section 6(h), and setting forth your payments, benefits and other entitlements due under
Section 6(d), (f) or (g), as applicable. MF Global will not be required to make the payments and provide the benefits and other entitlements (other than the Accrued Compensation and Other Benefits) due under Section 6(d), (f) or
(g), as applicable, unless you (or your estate) execute and deliver such agreement to MF Global within 55 days following such date of termination, which you (or your estate) do not revoke. This agreement will be in the form normally provided by the
MF Global Group to similarly situated executives at the time, which form, for the avoidance of doubt, will include a mutual non-disparagement covenant satisfactory to MF Global. If MF Global fails to tender such agreement to you (or your estate)
within 10 days after the date of your termination of employment, the condition of payment under this Section 6(h) will be deemed satisfied.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | Timing. All Accrued Compensation will be paid promptly after the end of your employment. Subject to Section 6(h), any Earned Bonus or Accrued Bonus due will
be paid in accordance with the form and timing provisions contemplated by Section 4(b) and any Severance Pay or Disability/Death Pay will be paid in one cash lump sum on the 55th day following the end of your employment. The benefits provided
in this Section 6 will begin at the end of your employment.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (j) | Section 409A.
| | --- | -------------



| | (1) | It is the parties intention that the payments and benefits to which you could become entitled in connection with your employment under this Agreement be exempt
from or comply with Section 409A (Section 409A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder. The provisions of this
Section 6(j) shall qualify and supersede all other provisions of this Agreement as necessary to fulfill the foregoing intention while to the maximum possible extent preserving the economic terms otherwise intended hereunder. If you or MF Global
believes, at any time, that any of such payment or benefit is not so exempt or does not so comply, you or MF Global will promptly advise the other party and will negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such arrangement such that
it is exempt or complies (with the most limited possible economic effect on you and on MF Global) or to mitigate any additional tax or interest (or both) that may apply under Section 409A if exemption or compliance is not practicable. MF Global
agrees that it will not, without your prior written consent, knowingly take any action, or knowingly refrain from taking any action, other than as required by law, that would result in the imposition of tax or interest (or both) upon you under
Section 409A, unless such action or omission is pursuant to your written request.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|                  |  |       
|----------------- |  | ------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 7



---

| | (2) | To the extent applicable, each and every payment made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and not as one of a series of
payments treated as a single payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (3) | If you are a specified employee (determined by MF Global in accordance with Section 409A and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2)) as of
your separation from service as defined for purposes of Section 409A (a Separation from Service) with MF Global, and if any payment, benefit or entitlement provided for in this Agreement or otherwise both (i) constitutes
a deferral of compensation within the meaning of and subject to Section 409A (Nonqualified Deferred Compensation) and (ii) cannot be paid or provided in a manner otherwise provided herein without subjecting
you to additional tax or interest (or both) under Section 409A, then any such payment, benefit or entitlement that is payable during the first six (6) months following the Separation from Service shall be paid or provided to you in a lump
sum cash payment to be made on the earlier of (x) your death and (y) the first business day of the seventh (7th) month immediately following your Separation from Service.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (4) | Except to the extent any reimbursement, payment or entitlement under this Agreement does not constitute Nonqualified Deferred Compensation, (i) the amount of
expenses eligible for reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit (as defined in Section 409A) to you during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or provided as in-kind benefits to you in
any other calendar year (subject to any lifetime and other annual limits provided under MF Globals health plans), (ii) the reimbursements for expenses for which you are entitled shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which the applicable expense is incurred, or (iii) the right to payment or reimbursement or in-kind benefits may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (5) | Any payment or benefit paid or provided under Section 6 hereof or otherwise paid or provided due to a Separation from Service that is exempt from Section 409A
pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v) will be paid or provided to you only to the extent the expenses are not incurred or the benefits are not provided beyond the last day of your second taxable year following your taxable
year in which the Separation from Service occurs; provided, however that MF Global reimburses such expenses no later than the last day of the third taxable year following your taxable year in which your Separation from Service occurs.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (6) | It is the parties intention that the definition of Good Reason and the separation-from-service procedures specified in Section 6(c) hereof satisfy the
conditions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(n)(2) for a termination for Good Reason to be treated as an involuntary separation from service for purposes of Section 409A.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (7) | Any dispute resolution payment (including related reimbursable expenses, fees and other costs) that does not constitute a legal settlement in accordance
with Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(11) will be paid by MF Global to you not later than the last day of your taxable year following the year in which the dispute is resolved.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

furnished to you orally or in writing (whatever the form or storage medium) or gathered by inspection, in each case before or after the date of this Agreement. However, Proprietary Information does not include information (1) that was or
becomes generally available to you on a non-confidential basis, if the source of this information was not reasonably known to you to be bound by a duty of confidentiality, (2) that was or becomes generally available to the public, other than as
a result of a disclosure by you, directly or indirectly, that is not authorized by the MF Global Group or (3) that you can establish was independently developed by you without reference to any Proprietary Information.

| | (b) | Use and Disclosure. You will obtain or create Proprietary Information in the course of your involvement in the MF Global Groups activities and may already
have Proprietary Information. You agree that the Proprietary Information is the exclusive property of the MF Global Group, and that, during your employment, you will use and disclose Proprietary Information only for the MF Global Groups
benefit and in accordance with any restrictions placed on its use or disclosure by the MF Global Group. After your employment, you will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information. In addition, nothing in this Agreement will operate to weaken or
waive any rights the MF Global Group may have under statutory or common law, or any other agreement, to the protection of trade secrets, confidential business information and other confidential information.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

self-regulatory authorities.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | On-going Restrictions on Your Activities
|-- | ----------------------------------------



| | (a) | Related Definitions. This Section uses the following defined terms:
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------

Competitive Enterprise means any business enterprise that either (1) engages in any activity anywhere (x) as a futures commission merchant, broker dealer or similarly



|                  |  |       
|----------------- |  | ------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 9



---

situated intermediary or (y) that is an activity in which MF Global Group is engaged on your date of termination and with which your duties in the 12 months prior to your date of termination
were concerned and which represents more than 10% of MF Globals pre-tax net income during the four completed fiscal quarters immediately prior to your date of termination or (2) holds a 5% or greater equity, voting or profit participation
interest in any enterprise that engages in such an activity.

Client means any client or prospective client
of the MF Global Group to whom you provided services or for whom you transacted business in the 12 months prior to your date of termination.

from taking any action.

| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (1) | In the course of your involvement in the MF Global Groups activities, you will have access to Proprietary Information and the MF Global Groups client base
and will profit from the goodwill associated with the MF Global Group. On the other hand, in view of your access to Proprietary Information and your importance to the MF Global Group, if you compete with the MF Global Group for some time after your
employment, the MF Global Group will likely suffer significant harm. In return for the benefits you will receive from the MF Global Group and to induce MF Global to enter into this Agreement, and in light of the potential harm you could cause the MF
Global Group, you agree to the provisions of this Section 8. MF Global would not have entered into this Agreement if you did not agree to this Section 8.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | This Section 8 limits your ability to earn a livelihood in a Competitive Enterprise and your relationships with Clients. You acknowledge, however, that complying
with this Section 8 will not result in severe economic hardship for you or your family.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Transition and Other Assistance. During the 60 days after Termination Notice has been given, you will take all actions the MF Global Group may
reasonably request to maintain for the MF Global Group the business, goodwill and business relationships with any Clients. In addition, while you are employed, and continuing after the termination of your employment with MF Global for a period of
six (6) months, upon receipt of reasonable notice from MF Global (including outside counsel), you will respond and provide information with regard to matters in which you have knowledge as a result of your employment with MF Global, and will
provide assistance to MF Global in the defense or prosecution of any claim that may be made by or against the MF Global Group. Such cooperation shall include, without limitation, serving as a witness at trial or hearing, being deposed, and
preparation for same or otherwise cooperating with MF Global as determined to be necessary by MF Global (including outside counsel) at its sole discretion, for the defense or prosecution of a claim. During the six (6) month period after
termination of your employment with MF Global, MF Global shall reimburse you for all pre-approved, reasonable expenses in connection therewith, including travel expenses, and shall compensate you at a daily rate equal to your Salary on the date your
employment terminated, divided by 200, with days used for preparation, travel and other related matters being included for purposes of determining the compensation due to you. To the extent reasonably

| | (2) | associate (including as a director, officer, employee, partner, sole proprietor, consultant, agent or advisor) with a Competitive Enterprise and in connection with your
association engage, or directly or indirectly manage or supervise personnel engaged, in any activity:
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (A) | that is substantially related to any activity that you were engaged in,
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (B) | that is substantially related to any activity for which you had direct or indirect managerial or supervisory responsibility, or
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (C) | that calls for the application of specialized knowledge or skills substantially related to those used by you in your activities;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in each case, for the MF Global Group at any time during the year before the end of your employment (or, if earlier, the year before
the date of determination).



| | (e) | Non-Solicitation of Clients. Until the end of the period stated in the Schedule, you will not attempt to Solicit any Client to transact business with a
Competitive Enterprise or to reduce or refrain from doing any business with the MF Global Group, in respect of any services which are the same as, or similar to, services that you provided or were responsible for on behalf of the MF Global Group at
any time during the period of one year prior to your date of termination.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | Non-Solicitation of MF Global Group Employees. Until the end of the period stated in the Schedule, you will not attempt to Solicit anyone who is then an employee

date of termination to resign from the MF Global Group or to apply for or accept employment with any Competitive Enterprise.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (g) | Notice to New Employers. Before you accept employment with any other person or entity while any of Section 8(c), (d), (e) or (f) is in effect, you
will provide the prospective employer with written notice of the provisions of this Section 8. You will deliver a copy of the notice required by the preceding sentence to MF Global no later than 30 days after commencing employment with such
prospective employer.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|9. | Effect of Excise Tax and Limits on Golden Parachute Payments.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | Contingent Reduction of Parachute Payments. If there is a change in ownership or control of MF Global that would cause any payment or
distribution by any member of the MF Global Group or any other person or entity to you or for your benefit (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (a Payment)
to be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | of the Code (such excise tax, together with any interest or penalties incurred by you with respect to such excise tax, the Excise Tax), then you will receive the greatest of
the following, whichever gives you the highest net after-tax amount (after taking into account federal, state, local and social security taxes): (1) the Payments or (2) one dollar less than the amount of the Payments that would subject you
to the Excise Tax (the Safe Harbor Amount). If a reduction in the Payments is necessary so that the Payments equal the Safe Harbor Amount and none of the Payments is Nonqualified Deferred Compensation, then the reduction shall
occur in the manner you elect in writing prior to the date of payment. If any Payment constitutes Nonqualified Deferred Compensation or if you fail to elect an order, then the Payments to be reduced will be determined in a manner which has the least
economic cost to you and, to the extent the economic cost is equivalent, will be reduced in the inverse order of when payment would have been made to you, until the reduction is achieved.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Determination of the Payments. All determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether and when the Safe Harbor Amount is required
and the amount of the reduction of the Payments and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a certified public accounting firm designated by MF Global and reasonably acceptable to you (the
Accounting Firm) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to MF Global and you within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from you that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by MF
Global. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by MF Global. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon MF Global and you. You shall cooperate with any reasonable requests by the MF Global Group in
connection with any contests or disputes with the Internal Revenue Service in connection with the Excise Tax.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|10. | Effect on Other Agreements; Entire Agreement.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------

This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and MF Global with respect to the relationship contemplated by this Agreement and supersedes any earlier agreement, written or oral, with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement. In entering into this Agreement, no party has relied on or made any representation, warranty, inducement, promise or understanding that is not in this Agreement.



|11. | Successors.
|--- | -----------



| | (a) | Payments on Your Death. If you die and any amounts become payable under this Agreement (including payments under Section 5(c), Section 5(d) and
Section 6), MF Global will pay those amounts to your estate.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Assignment by You. You may not assign this Agreement without MF Globals consent. Also, except as required by law, your right to receive payments or
benefits under this Agreement may not be subject to execution, attachment, levy or similar process. Any attempt to effect any of the preceding in violation of this Section 11(b), whether voluntary or involuntary, will be void.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Assumption by any Surviving Company. Before the effectiveness of any merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar transaction
(including an exchange offer combined with a merger or consolidation) involving MF Global (a Reorganization) or any sale, lease or other disposition (including by way of a series of transactions or by way of merger, consolidation,
stock sale or similar transaction involving one or more subsidiaries) of all or substantially all of MF Globals consolidated assets (a Sale), MF Global will cause (1) the Surviving Company to

|                  |  |        
|----------------- |  | -------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 12



---

| | unconditionally assume this Agreement in writing and (2) a copy of the assumption to be provided to you. The Surviving Company means (i) in a Reorganization, the
entity resulting from the Reorganization or (ii) in a Sale, the entity that has acquired all or substantially all of the assets of MF Global. After the Reorganization or Sale, the Surviving Company will be treated for all purposes as MF Global
under this Agreement.
| | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Disputes.
|--- | ---------



| | (a) | Employment Matter. This Section 12 applies to any controversy or claim between you and the MF Global Group arising out of or relating to or concerning this
Agreement, or any aspect of your employment with MF Global or the termination of that employment (together, an Employment Matter).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Mandatory Arbitration. Subject to the provisions of this Section 12, any Employment Matter will be finally settled by arbitration in the County of
New York administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect. However, the rules will be modified in the following ways: (1) each arbitrator will agree to treat as confidential evidence
and other information presented to the same extent as the information is required to be kept confidential under Section 7, (2) a decision must be rendered within 10 business days of the parties closing statements or submission of
post-hearing briefs and (3) the arbitration will be conducted before a panel of three arbitrators, one selected by you within 10 days of the commencement of arbitration, one selected by MF Global in the same period and the third selected
jointly by these arbitrators (or, if they are unable to agree on an arbitrator within 30 days of the commencement of arbitration, the third arbitrator will be appointed by the American Arbitration Association; provided that the arbitrator
shall be a partner or former partner at a nationally recognized law firm other than a law firm, or individual, who provided services to MF Global or you at any time during the previous 10 years). Notwithstanding the preceding, to the extent the
rules of any self-regulatory organization applicable to the MF Global Group require an Employment Matter to be arbitrated by different arbitration rules, such required arbitration rules will apply.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Limitation on Damages. You and the MF Global Group agree that there will be no punitive damages payable as a result of any Employment Matter and agree
not to request punitive damages.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Injunctions and Enforcement of Arbitration Awards. You or the MF Global Group may bring an action or special proceeding in a state or federal court of competent
jurisdiction sitting in the County of New York to enforce any arbitration award under Section 12(b). Also, the MF Global Group may bring such an action or proceeding, in addition to its rights under Section 12(b) and whether or not an
arbitration proceeding has been or is ever initiated, to temporarily, preliminarily or permanently enforce any part of Sections 7 and 8. You agree that (1) your violating any part of Sections 7 and 8 would cause damage to the MF Global Group
that cannot be measured or repaired, (2) the MF Global Group therefore is entitled to an injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief restraining any actual or threatened violation of those Sections, (3) no bond will need to be
posted for the MF Global Group to receive such an injunction, order or other relief and (4) no proof will be required that monetary damages for violations of those Sections would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be
inadequate.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|                  |  |        
|----------------- |  | -------
|Mr. James Roswell |  | Page 13



---

| | (e) | Jurisdiction and Choice of Forum. You and the MF Global Group irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in
the County of New York over any Employment Matter that is not otherwise arbitrated or resolved according to Section 12(b). This includes any action or proceeding to compel arbitration or to enforce an arbitration award. Both you and the MF
Global Group (1) acknowledge that the forum stated in this Section 12(e) has a reasonable relation to this Agreement and to the relationship between you and the MF Global Group and that the submission to the forum will apply even if the
forum chooses to apply non-forum law, (2) waive, to the extent permitted by law, any objection to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding covered by this Section 12(e) in the forum stated in this
Section, (3) agree not to commence any such action or proceeding in any forum other than the forum stated in this Section 12(e) and (4) agree that, to the extent permitted by law, a final and non-appealable judgment in any such
action or proceeding in any such court will be conclusive and binding on you and the MF Global Group. However, nothing in this Agreement precludes you or the MF Global Group from bringing any action or proceeding in any court for the purpose of
enforcing the provisions of Sections 12(b), 12(d) and this 12(e).
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | Waiver of Jury Trial. To the extent permitted by law, you and the MF Global Group waive any and all rights to a jury trial with respect to any
Employment Matter.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (g) | Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to
be performed entirely within that State.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (h) | Costs. MF Global will pay all costs of the arbitration except, if applicable, your petitioners filing fee. If the arbitrator or court of competent
jurisdiction determines that you have prevailed on the issues in dispute in the arbitration or court proceeding, as the case may be, MF Global will, upon presentment of appropriate documentation, pay or reimburse any reasonable expenses, including
reasonable attorneys fees, you incur as a result of any Employment Matter.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

withhold from any payment any taxes that are required to be withheld under any law, rule or regulation.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found by any court of competent jurisdiction (or legally empowered agency) to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable for any reason, then (1) the provision will be amended automatically to the minimum extent necessary to cure the illegality or invalidity and permit enforcement and (2) the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected. In
particular, if any provision of Section 8 is so found to violate law or be unenforceable because it applies for longer than a maximum permitted period or to greater than a maximum permitted area, it will be automatically amended to apply for
the maximum permitted period and maximum permitted area.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|Additional Entitlements on Termination of Employment in Connection with Expiration of the Agreement Term |  | If, in connection with a termination of employment contemplated by Section 6(g), MF Global did not provide notice of extension of the
Agreement Term in accordance with Section 2, then as determined by MF Global, the service-based vesting conditions of any equity-based award will vest on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying (1) the number of common shares subject to the award
by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from and including the applicable grant date through the effective date of your termination of employment, and the denominator of which is the number of days between
the date of grant and the final vesting date (reduced by the portion of the award, if any, that vested prior to your date of termination). The settlement of the awards will continue in accordance with the relevant award agreement and, if applicable,
performance terms will continue in effect and be measured without regard to your termination.  In the event of a termination of employment contemplated by Section 6(g), the restrictions set forth in Section 8(d) shall not apply unless MF Global pays you a cash lump sum amount on the 55thday following the end of your employment equal to 150% of the sum of
your Salary and your target Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Termination Notice is given (or if such target Bonus has not yet been established for such fiscal year, the target Bonus for the fiscal year prior to the year in which the
Termination Notice is given); provided, such payment shall not be payable to you (but the restrictions set forth in Section 8(d) shall nevertheless apply) unless you satisfy the condition of payment in Section 6(h).
