Brett Soloway, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary. We refer to these executive officers as the Named Executive Officers. Compensation Philosophy and Objectives Our compensation
philosophy is to provide an attractive, flexible and effective compensation package to our executive officers that is tied to our corporate performance and aligned with the interests of our shareholders. Our executive compensation program is
designed to help us recruit, motivate and retain the caliber of executive officers necessary to deliver consistent high performance to our clients, shareholders and other stakeholders. Our compensation policies and practices also allow us to communicate our goals and standards of conduct and performance and to motivate and reward employees
for their achievements. In general, the same principles governing the compensation of our executive officers also apply to the compensation of all our employees, which include:  Principle

PracticeRetain and hire the best leaders.

Competitive compensation to facilitate attracting and retaining high-quality talent.Pay for performance.

A significant portion of pay depends on annual and long-term business and individual performance; in general, the level of at-risk compensation increases as the officers
scope of responsibility increases.Reward long-term growth and profitability.

Rewards for achieving long-term results, and alignment with the interests of our shareholders.Tie compensation to business performance.

A significant portion of pay is tied to measures of performance of the business or businesses over which the individual has the greatest influence.Align executive compensation with shareholder interests.

The interests of our executive officers are linked with those of our shareholders through the risks and rewards of stock ownership.Limited personal benefits.

Perquisites and other personal benefits are limited to items that serve a reasonable business-related purpose. Compensation Mix Our
executive compensation program has been designed to reward strong performance by focusing the compensation opportunity for each of our executive officers on annual and long-term incentives that depend upon our performance as a whole, as well as the
performance of our individual businesses or on the basis of individual metrics where appropriate. Compensation-Setting Process Role of the Compensation Committee The
Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing our executive compensation program (including our executive compensation policies and practices) and approving the compensation of our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers
(except for our CEO).  10

##### Table of Contents

The board of directors is responsible for approving all compensation paid to our CEO. Pursuant to its
charter, the Compensation Committee has the responsibility to review and recommend to the board of directors any proposed change in base salary or target incentive compensation for our CEO at least annually, as well as for evaluating our CEOs
performance and recommending actual payments under the annual incentive plan in light of the corporate goals and objectives applicable to him. Our equity
incentive plans are administered by the Compensation Committee with oversight from the board of directors. As we were previously a privately-owned company, we did not historically make equity grants on an annual basis. Beginning in 2019, we expect
to commence making annual grants of incentive equity to our executives, subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee. From time to time, the Compensation Committee may in its sole discretion approve additional grants of equity incentive
awards to Named Executive Officers. Role of Executive Officers The Compensation Committee receives support from our Human Resources Department in designing our executive compensation program and analyzing competitive
market practices. Our Chief Human Resources Officer and General Counsel attend regular meetings of the Compensation Committee in order to provide insight and expertise regarding the operation of our compensation programs and to provide support and
assistance with respect to the legal and governance implications of our compensation decisions. Our CEO also regularly participates in Compensation Committee meetings, providing management input on organizational structure, executive development and
financial analysis. In addition, our CFO provides the financial information used by the Compensation Committee to make decisions with respect to incentive compensation goals based on achievement of financial targets and related payouts for our
annual and long-term incentive programs. Our CEO evaluates the performance of each of our executive officers against any annual objectives established
for the business or functional area for which such executive officer is responsible. Our CEO then reviews each executive officers target compensation opportunity, and based upon the target compensation opportunity and the individuals
performance, proposes compensation adjustments, subject to review and approval by the Compensation Committee. Neither our CEO nor any other Named Executive Officer participates in the evaluation of his or her own performance and he or she is not
present during discussions relating to his or her compensation. Role of Independent Compensation Consultant In fulfilling its duties and responsibilities, the Compensation Committee has the authority to engage the services of outside advisers on an as-needed basis. In our fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (Fiscal 2017), the Compensation Committee engaged Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (FW Cook), a national executive
compensation consulting firm, to assist it with compensation matters. The Compensation Committee continued its retention of FW Cook through Fiscal 2018. FW Cook attends meetings of the Compensation Committee, responds to inquiries from members of
the Compensation Committee and provides analysis with respect to these inquiries. Since Fiscal 2017, FW Cook has assisted the Compensation Committee with
the development of our compensation peer group, analyzed the executive compensation levels and practices of the companies in our compensation peer group and provided advice and support with respect to compensation best practices and market trends.
FW Cook does not provide any services to us other than the services provided to the Compensation Committee. Peer Group In February 2017, our Compensation Committee, with the assistance of FW Cook, developed an initial compensation peer group based on an evaluation of companies
that it believed were comparable to us with respect to industry segment, business profile and various financial criteria as a reference source in its executive compensation deliberations. In 2018, our Compensation Committee updated our peer group by
removing Marsh & McLennan and Savills because their revenues and market capitalization fell outside the desired ranges for our peer group. Our peer group for Fiscal 2018, which was used by the Compensation Committee as a reference in the
course of its 2018 deliberations, consists of the following 21 companies:  11

Boston PropertiesCACI InternationalCGI GroupConvergysDuke Realty CorporationEMCORFidelity National Information ServicesFiservForest City RealtyJacobs EngineeringKBRKelly ServicesLeidosRobert Half InternationalUnisysWillis Towers Watson As of September 2018, our revenue was near the median of our peer group and our market capitalization was near the 25th
percentile of our peer group. We believe that the position of these measures relative to our peer group provides our Compensation Committee with a sound basis for comparing our compensation to market competitors. This peer group data is not used by the Compensation Committee in isolation but rather serves as one point of reference for making decisions about
compensation. The Compensation Committee also takes into consideration other factors it considers relevant, such as the financial and operational performance of our businesses, individual performance, specific retention concerns and internal equity. Competitive Market Review For purposes of
its review of the competitive market, the Compensation Committee reviewed an analysis of our 21-company peer group which was prepared by FW Cook. The Compensation Committee also reviews third-party survey data
prepared by FW Cook in cases where other peer group data is not available to capture broader market trends and practices. Compensation-Related Risk
Assessment The Compensation Committee evaluates each element of our executive compensation program in order to ensure that it does not encourage
our executive officers to take excessive or unnecessary risks or incentivize the achievement of short-term results at the expense of our long-term interests. We believe we have designed our executive compensation program to address potential risks
while also rewarding our executive officers for achieving financial and strategic objectives through prudent business judgment and appropriate risk taking. Among other things, we have attempted to mitigate risk by adopting stock ownership guidelines
and clawback policies. Based on our 2018 evaluation, we concluded that our executive compensation policies and practices are appropriately structured and do not encourage employees to take unnecessary or excessive risks. Compensation Elements Our executive compensation
program consists of base salary, annual incentive compensation, long-term equity incentive awards and health, welfare and other customary employee benefits.  12

##### Table of Contents

Base Salary We believe that a competitive base salary is critical in attracting and retaining key executive talent. In evaluating the base salaries of our Named Executive
Officers, the Compensation Committee considers several factors, including individual and company performance, qualifications, experience, tenure and scope of responsibilities, future potential, competitive market practices, difficulty of finding a
replacement, our desired compensation position with respect to the competitive market and internal equity. During 2018, Mr. Soloways base salary was increased following a review of compensation of similarly-situated officers at peer
companies. Annual Incentive Compensation Each year, our executive officers are eligible to receive annual cash incentive awards under the Annual Incentive Plan (AIP). At the beginning of the fiscal year the Compensation Committee approves the terms and conditions of the AIP for the year, including the selection of one or
more performance measures as the basis for determining the funding of annual cash bonuses for the year, the performance range relative to our annual operating plan and the weighting of such performance measures. Target Annual Cash Bonus Opportunities For
purposes of the Fiscal 2018 AIP, the target cash bonus opportunities of the Named Executive Officers for Fiscal 2018 were as follows:  Named Executive Officer

237,500 Corporate Performance Measures For purposes of the Fiscal 2018 AIP, the Compensation Committee selected Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted as follows: increased by $153 million to reflect the
cost of the AIP, increased by $18 million (currency conversion) and decreased by $22 million (recruiting and retention amortization), $11 million (changes in revenue recognition from customer contracts due to ASC 606) and
$7 million (M&A, restructuring and other one-time items). This Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA was the sole performance measure. See
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsNon-GAAP Financial Measures for further detail on the Companys use of Adjusted EBITDA. The
Compensation Committee believes that Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA is the best measure of both corporate and business segment profitability. Annual Cash Bonus Decisions The AIP is based on
the achievement of a certain percentage of Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA, from a minimum of 70% to a maximum of 130% as measured against the relevant annual operating plan target, subject to the achievement of
the minimum 70% on a consolidated basis and the discretion of our board of directors, with straight line interpolation between performance levels. Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA goals are set on a constant
currency basis. Other items and adjustments are made to Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA at the discretion of the Compensation Committee to ensure that the achievement reflects underlying performance as
determined by the Compensation Committee. The adjustments made for Fiscal 2018 are described above. Individuals bonuses are then determined according to their role and company-wide financial performance and, in some cases, individual
performance, as described below. The bonus paid to our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Soloway and Ms. Hay, is determined based on
financial performance that results in a funded range of 0% to 200% of their applicable target. The bonus for Mr. Soloway and Ms. Hay is weighted 75% on the achievement of financial goals (resulting in a range of 0% to 150% of their
applicable target) and 25% on the achievement on individual performance  13

objectives relating to specific projects or initiatives at the Company (resulting in a range of 0% to 50% of their applicable target). The Compensation Committee has the discretion to adjust the
amount of the actual cash bonus payments to be received by any Named Executive Officer, as it deems to be appropriate, upwards to the applicable cap or downwards to zero. There were no such adjustments for Fiscal 2018. For purposes of our Fiscal 2018 AIP, the target Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA was $682 million, and the actual
achieved Pre-Incentive Adjusted EBITDA was $790 million. As a result, the Fiscal 2018 cash bonus payments for the Named Executive Officers were 153.33% of their target annual cash bonus opportunities as
summarized below. The Compensation Committee determined that both Mr. Soloway and Ms. Hay substantially exceeded their individual performance objectives for Fiscal 2018 and concluded that matching their bonus payment percentages to those
received by the other Named Executive Officers fairly compensated them for their achievement of their respective individual performance objectives.  Named Executive Officer

% Long-Term Incentive Compensation We provide long-term incentive compensation to our executive officers in the form of options to purchase our ordinary shares and RSUs. We believe these
equity-based grants promote our long-term growth and profitability by aligning the interests of our management with the interests of our shareholders and by encouraging retention. Our Named Executive Officers currently hold a mix of equity
compensation granted under one of two plans, depending on whether the awards were granted before or after our initial public offering. A brief description of these arrangements is set forth below. Pre-IPO Equity Compensation. Prior to our initial public offering, our executive officers received equity
awards under the DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited Management Equity Incentive Plan (the MEIP), which was adopted by our corporate predecessor in May 2015, as well as RSUs pursuant to individual agreements with DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited. The
bulk of these awards were made at the time the Principal Shareholders acquired us, or upon a new hire, promotion or other special circumstance. As a privately-owned company, we did not historically make equity grants on an annual basis. Although we
do not intend to issue further awards under the MEIP, the majority of the equity awards currently held by our Named Executive Officers were issued under the MEIP prior to our initial public offering. As our business has grown, we have periodically
reevaluated the awards granted under the MEIP and in certain cases modified the awards to reflect the economic realities of our evolving business. These modifications are discussed under the heading Compensation Changes Related to our
IPOChanges to Certain Equity Incentive Awards and the notes to the equity tables appearing below. Post-IPO Equity Compensation. In order to remain competitive with our peers as a public company, we adopted a
new management incentive program in connection with our initial public offering. See Compensation Changes Related to our IPONew Management and Non-Employee Omnibus Equity Compensation
Plans. After our initial public offering in 2018, we made long-term incentive grants under this plan to certain of our Named Executive Officers. We expect that all future long-term incentive grants will be made under this post-IPO plan or its successor. Equity received by our executive officers, whether as the result of option exercises,
the settlement of RSUs or outright purchases, is generally subject to significant transfer restrictions intended to increase alignment between management and our shareholders. See Employee Equity Arrangements and Fiscal
2018 Outstanding Equity Awards at Year-End Table.  14

Health, Welfare, Retirement and Other Employee Benefits We provide benefits to our Named Executive Officers on the same basis as all of our full-time employees. These benefits include 401(k) retirement, medical,
pharmacy, dental and vision benefits, medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts, short-term and long-term disability insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance and basic life insurance coverage. Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits We only
provide perquisites and other personal benefits to our executive officers when we believe they are appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of duties and the achievement of business objectives, to make our executive officers more
efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes. The Compensation Committee believes that the perquisites and personal benefits that we provide are a reasonable component of our overall executive compensation program and are
consistent with market practices. We may provide other perquisites or other personal benefits in the future to achieve similar goals, subject to approval and periodic review by our Compensation Committee. Employment Agreements and Severance Arrangements We have entered into written employment agreements with Messrs. White, Palmer and Forrester, and Mr. Soloway and Ms. Hay are party to offer letters
with the Company. These agreements establish the terms and conditions governing their employment, including any termination thereof, and also include restrictive covenants. These arrangements are more fully described below under
Employment Arrangements. The rights of Messrs. White and Palmer to receive severance are set forth in their respective employment
agreements. Each of Mr. Soloway, Mr. Forrester and Ms. Hay are entitled to certain benefits under our severance plan, as more fully described below under Compensation Changes Related to our IPONew Executive Severance
Arrangements. Employment agreements and severance benefits assist us in the recruitment and retention of executive talent. Compensation Changes Related to our IPO In
connection with our initial public offering in August 2018, we adopted a number of changes to our compensation policies and plans. These changes, which are described below, were intended to ensure our compensation practices remained competitive with
our peers as we became a publicly traded company. Changes to Certain Equity Incentive Awards August 2018 Modification of Certain RSUs In connection with our
IPO, the terms of certain RSUs held by our Named Executive Officers that provided for settlement only upon termination or change in control were modified to provide for such awards to vest and settle on or before August 6, 2020. The vesting and
settlement timeline provides for all then vested RSU awards to settle on August 6, 2019. From August 7, 2019 through August 6, 2020 awards will vest per existing vesting terms in individual agreements and settle within 30 days after
vesting. Any remaining unvested RSUs will then vest and settle on August 6, 2020. November 2018 Modification of Performance-Vesting Options To encourage retention as well as to align the interests of our executives with our shareholders, we revised the vesting terms applicable to all
performance-based options in November 2018, including those held by our Named Executive Officers. In addition to vesting in the event our Principal Stockholders achieve a multiple of money of 2.0 upon a sale of their equity, the performance based
options will vest in the event our share price over 90 trading days averages at least $20, whichever comes first.  15

Modification of Equity Awards Held by Mr. White In June and November 2018, Mr. White agreed to certain changes to the terms of his employment agreement and the terms of certain of his outstanding equity
awards, which the Company believes overall provides better alignment between the Company and its stakeholders (including the Principal Shareholders) interests and those of Mr. White. Among other things, with respect to all of his
outstanding equity-based awards granted prior to March 2018, Mr. White agreed (i) to sell a pro rata portion of the ordinary shares he receives in settlement of these awards each time the Principal Shareholders sell ordinary shares for
cash prior to March 6, 2020, (ii) that in exchange for agreeing to extend the term of his employment through December 31, 2021, the RSUs in respect of 2,233,792 ordinary shares granted on May 8, 2015 will be subject to modified
vesting conditions, including that a portion of them have a time-based component that may permit them to vest earlier and to a greater extent than they otherwise may have based on the performance-based vesting criteria, (iii) that the 285,000
performance-vesting RSUs granted on May 8, 2015 will be converted to time-vesting RSUs and (iv) that the restrictions of the management stockholders agreement (as described below under the heading Employee Equity
Arrangements) generally would not apply, except with respect to the call right in the event his employment is terminated for cause or if he violates restrictive covenants to which he is subject, provided that he may only transfer up to 5% of
the ordinary shares he holds as a result of the settlement of his outstanding time-based RSUs and options per calendar quarter, inclusive of any ordinary shares sold pursuant to the requirement to sell his ordinary shares alongside the Principal
Shareholders. IPO Retention Bonuses In
November 2018, the Compensation Committee approved one-time cash awards to Messrs. Palmer, Forrester and Soloway in the amounts of $1,200,000, $1,200,000 and $150,000, respectively. The awards are subject to
repayment of the net after tax amount in the event the recipient voluntarily resigns employment with the Company within two years. New Management
and Non-Employee Omnibus Equity Compensation Plans In May 2018 we adopted both the 2018 Omnibus Management
Share and Cash Incentive Plan (the Management Plan) and the 2018 Omnibus Non-Employee Director Share and Cash Incentive Plan (the Director Plan, and together with the Management Plan,
the 2018 Omnibus Plans). We anticipate that all future equity-based awards will be granted under these plans or their successors to employees, consultants and independent contractors and to
non-employee directors, respectively. New Executive Severance Arrangement In June 2018, we implemented a new executive severance plan for our executive officers (other than Messrs. White and Palmer, whose severance is set out in
their respective employment agreements) that we believe is more in line with market practice. Consistent with the arrangements governing the severance for Messrs. White and Palmer, the Compensation Committee approved severance for our other Named
Executive Officers in the event their employment is terminated by the Company without cause based on a multiple of base salary only (1.5x in the case of Mr. Forrester and 1.0x for Ms. Hay and Mr. Soloway). The severance
will be payable over 18 months, in the case of Mr. Forrester, and 12 months, in the case of Ms. Hay and Mr. Soloway, and will be subject to the requirement that the individual execute a valid release and comply with any restrictive
covenants to which they are subject.  16

Bonus amounts in 2017 represent payments in respect of retention bonuses as set forth in the applicable
employment agreement or offer letter. For Mr. Palmer, Mr. Forrester and Mr. Soloway bonus amounts in 2018 represent payments related to the Companys successful completion of an IPO and payments in respect of one-time cash awards approved for certain executive officers by our Compensation Committee in November 2018 (the 2018 Cash Awards). The 2018 Cash Awards are subject to repayment of the net after tax
amount if the recipient of such award voluntarily resigns within two years. For Ms. Hay, bonus amount in 2018 represents a bonus payment related to the Companys successful completion of an IPO. (2)
The amounts reported in the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns represent the
aggregate grant date fair value of the stock-based awards granted to the Named Executive Officers during Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2018, as computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718
(ASC Topic 718), including the incremental increase in value resulting from the amendments to certain other outstanding equity awards as described in Changes to Certain Equity Incentive Awards above and disregarding the
impact of estimated forfeitures. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the options reported in the Option Awards column and the methodology used to value RSUs are set forth in Note 13 to the audited Consolidated Financial
Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The amounts reported in these columns reflect the accounting cost for these stock-based awards, and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the Named Executive Officers
from these awards. With respect to all performance-vesting awards granted or modified in 2018, the achievement of the highest level of performance conditions specified in the applicable award would result in 100% of the shares underlying such award
vesting (in the case of RSUs) or becoming exercisable (in the case of options). The value of such performance-vesting awards is set forth in the Fiscal 2018 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table. (3)
The amounts reported in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan
Compensation column represent the amounts paid to our Named Executive Officers pursuant to our Annual Incentive Plan for the applicable year. See Compensation Discussion and AnalysisAnnual Incentive Compensation. (4)
The amounts in this column include the following categories of perquisites for 2018: for Mr. Palmer and
Ms. Hay, 401(k) contributions by the Company ($6,750 each); for Mr. Forrester, $62,812 in cash in lieu of retirement benefits, in addition to a car allowance, tax compliance services and certain core benefits including life assurance,
private medical and income protection; and for Mr. White, $55,385 in reimbursement of legal fees related to his employment with us, in addition to charitable contributions, tickets to sporting events and payment of a golf club membership. The
amounts reported for perquisites and other benefits represent the actual cost incurred by us in providing these benefits to the indicated Named Executed Officer. (5)
Salary, Non-Equity Incentive and All Other Compensation for
Mr. Forrester have been converted from GBP at a rate of $1.3508/GBP. Employee Equity Arrangements As described above under Compensation ElementsLong-Term Incentive Compensation, we have made
pre-IPO equity grants under the MEIP and pursuant to RSU agreements, and we have also made post-IPO equity grants pursuant to the Management Plan. The equity awards
granted to our executive officers are more fully described below in the Fiscal 2018 Outstanding Equity Awards at Year-End Table. We and the Principal Shareholders have entered into a management stockholders agreement with each of our executive officers that remains in effect until
December 31, 2021 and which governs all pre-IPO equity held by our executive officers, whether acquired pursuant to the exercise of options granted under the MEIP, the settlement of RSUs or purchases. The
equity is held pursuant to a nominee arrangement and is generally nontransferable, except that a participant may transfer their rights for estate planning purposes or otherwise as permitted by us. In no event will a transfer be permitted to a
competitor. The management stockholders agreement provides for drag-along, tag-along and post-termination repurchase and recapture rights, lock-up and other
restrictions.  17

The amounts reported reflect the threshold, target and maximum annual cash bonus opportunities payable to the
Named Executive Officer under the Fiscal 2018 AIP. (2)
Represents shares underlying awards whose vesting criteria was modified from performance-based to time-based in
June 2018. The incremental value attributable to such modification is $11.90 per share, which represents the difference between $17.00, the fair market value of our shares on the modification date, and $5.10, the original grant date value of the
awards. (3)
Represents shares underlying awards originally granted in 2015 as performance-vesting RSUs which were modified
in November 2018. 1,340,275 of such RSUs were converted to time-vesting RSUs such that the awards vest in substantially equal annual increments beginning on May 8, 2016 and continuing through May 8, 2021. The performance-vesting criteria
of the remaining 893,517 RSUs was modified to provide for the awards to vest in the following proportions if our closing share price for a period of 90 days is at least a certain value, as follows: (1) 25% at $16.70, (2) 37.5% at $19.50, (3) 50% at
22.30, (4) 62.5% at 25.10, (5) 75% at $27.80, (6) 87.5% at $30.60 and (7) 100% at $33.40. The incremental value attributable to the time-vesting RSUs is $17.274 per share, which represents the difference between $18.26, the fair value of our shares
on the modification date, and $0.986, the original grant date value of the awards. The incremental value attributable to the modified performance-vesting RSUs is $16.304, which represents the difference between $17.29, the calculated fair value of
the awards on the modification date, and $0.986, the original grant date value of the awards. If all of the performance-vesting RSUs were assumed to vest (the highest level of performance), the value of this grant would have been $38,586,523 (due to
an additional $866,711 that would have been attributable to such awards on the grant date). (4)
Consists of 220,589 time-vesting RSUs and 73,529 performance-vesting RSUs granted with a fair market value of
$17.00 per share and $3.68 per share, respectively. The time-vesting RSUs vest in substantially equal installments of 25% over four years, with vesting beginning as of March 15, 2018. The performance-vesting RSUs vest if only upon the
occurrence of a liquidity event in which the Principal Shareholders realize a net multiple of money of at least 2.0. If all of the performance-vesting RSUs were assumed to vest (the highest level of performance), the value of this grant would have
been $5,000,006 (due to an an additional $979,413 that would have been attributable to such awards on the grant date). (5)
Represents the increase in value resulting from the modification of certain MEIP option awards on
November 19, 2018. The incremental value attributable to each option is equal to the difference between the original grant date fair value of the applicable option and $9.840, the fair value of such options on the date of modification, as set
forth below: The options will vest upon the occurrence of a liquidity event or significant cash sale in the event the
Principal Shareholders realize a multiple of money that is at least equal to 2.0. As a result of the November 19, 2018 modification, these options will also vest if our average closing share price for a period of 90 days is at least $20. (6)
RSUs vest in four substantially equal installments over four years, with vesting beginning as of
September 6, 2018. The fair market value of the RSUs on the date of Compensation Committee approval was $18.03 per share. (7)
Represents time-vesting RSUs granted prior to our initial public offering at a fair market value of $17.00. The
RSU plan was terminated on August 8, 2018 and such shares will vest and settle by August 6, 2020. Upon the consummation of our IPO, the terms of certain RSUs held by our Named Executive Officers that provided for settlement past vesting
were modified to provide for such awards to vest and settle on or before August 6, 2020. The vesting and settlement timeline provides for all then vested RSUs to settle on August 6, 2019. From August 7, 2019 through August 6,
2020 awards will vest per existing vesting terms in individual agreements and settle within 30 days. Any remaining unvested RSUs will then vest and settle on August 6, 2020. The vesting schedule of these RSUs is set forth below. Total amounts
may not foot due to rounding.  19

Represents performance-vesting RSUs granted prior to our initial public offering at an
original fair value of $3.68, in the case of RSUs held by Mr. Forrester and Ms. Hay, and $2.00, in the case of RSUs held by Mr. Soloway. On August 6, 2018, the awards were modified to provide for vesting and settlement based on

Employment Arrangements Each of the Named Executive Officers is party to certain agreements or arrangements governing their employment, as described below. Mr. White DTZ US NewCo, Inc. is party to an
employment agreement with Mr. White, effective as of March 16, 2015, and as amended on November 19, 2018 (the White Amendment), with a term extending through December 30, 2021. The White Amendment was approved by the
Compensation Committee to provide for continued implementation of the Companys strategy and better continuity of management. To the extent he meets certain continued service requirements, Mr. White will be entitled to a long term
incentive award in March of 2021 that is provided generally on the same vesting and other terms as would apply to similar annual long term incentive grants made to other senior executives in that year. In connection with the White Amendment, the
vesting of certain of Mr. Whites outstanding RSUs was amended. See Changes to Certain Equity Incentive AwardsModification of Equity Awards Held by Mr. White, above. Mr. Whites base salary may not be reduced below $950,000. Mr. White is eligible for a target annual bonus opportunity equal to $2,000,000,
based on individual and/or company performance, as determined by the Board. Mr. Whites annual compensation was initially established in connection with Mr. Whites service as our Executive Chairman, and his employment agreement
also provided for equity grants made in connection with the acquisition of DTZ and Cassidy Turley by our Principal Shareholders and consistent with that Executive Chairman role and his role in effectuating the transaction. In 2015, Mr. White
took over as our CEO, and in connection with that transition as well as the acquisition of Cushman & Wakefield, Mr. White received an additional grant of RSUs. In 2017 and again in November 2018, his overall compensation was reviewed
and amended to better reflect market practice and levels for his service as the CEO and as a result, by March 15, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, Mr. White had received or is entitled to receive, as applicable, a grant of RSUs with respect to a
number of shares of the Company having a value of at least $5,000,000 on the date of grant. Of these RSUs, other than those that will be granted in 2021 (which will vest on the terms described above), 75% will be subject to the provision of
continued services or certain transition obligations in the event he resigns as CEO, and 25% will vest upon the occurrence of a sale of a significant portion of our ordinary shares held by our Principal Shareholders for cash at a multiple of money
of 2.0x, subject to his remaining employed as of such date. If Mr. Whites employment is terminated by us without cause or if he resigns for
good reason (both as defined in the employment agreement), he is entitled to: (i) continued base salary for 24 months, (ii) continued participation in our medical, dental and health plans at his cost until the second anniversary of the
termination of his employment and (iii) a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance, unless the termination occurs within 12 months prior to or 24 months following a
change in control, in which case this pro rata bonus payment will be at least equal to his target annual bonus opportunity. In the event Mr. Whites employment terminates due to his death or disability, in addition to earned salary and
benefits, he is entitled to his annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance. Mr. White is subject to certain restrictive
covenants, including prohibitions on (i) competing with us during his employment with us and for a period of 18 months thereafter, (ii) soliciting or hiring our customers or employees during his employment with us and for a period of
24 months thereafter, and (iii) non-disparagement, confidentiality and intellectual property obligations. If Mr. White resigns without good reason at the end of the term, he may continue to receive
his then-current base salary and to participate in our medical, dental and health plans at his cost for up to 18 months, subject to his continued compliance with any other obligations he has to us, unless we notify him that we are waiving our rights
to enforce the non-competition covenant. Mr. Palmer DTZ US NewCo, Inc. is party to an employment agreement with Mr. Palmer, effective as of March 16, 2015, which had an initial term of three years and
is subject to automatic one year extensions unless we or Mr. Palmer give notice not to renew. Mr. Palmers salary may not be reduced below $600,000. Mr. Palmer  22

is eligible for a target annual bonus opportunity equal to $600,000, based on individual and/or company performance, as determined by the Committee. Further, under the terms of his employment
agreement, Mr. Palmer was entitled to receive a retention bonus payment of $1,000,000 on October 1, 2017 as long as he remained employed on that date. If Mr. Palmers employment is terminated by us without cause or if he resigns for good reason (both as defined in the employment agreement), or in
the event we elect not to extend the term of his employment with us, he is entitled to: (i) continued base salary for a period of 18 months, (ii) continued participation in our medical, dental and health plans at his cost for a period of
18 months following termination of employment and (iii) a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance. If such termination occurs within 6 months prior to or 24 months
following a change in control, Mr. Palmer is also entitled to a bonus of $600,000. If Mr. Palmers employment is terminated due to his death or disability, in addition to earned salary and benefits, he is entitled to his annual bonus
for the year of termination based on actual performance. Mr. Palmer is subject to certain restrictive covenants set forth in his employment
agreement and the agreements governing his equity awards, including prohibitions on (i) competing with us during his employment with us and for a period of 18 months thereafter, (ii) soliciting or hiring our customers or employees during
his employment with us and for a period of 18 months thereafter and (iii) non-disparagement, confidentiality and intellectual property obligations. Mr. Forrester The terms of
Mr. Forresters employment are governed by an employment agreement (the Forrester Employment Agreement) with Cushman & Wakefield Debenham Tie Leung Limited. Mr. Forresters annual base salary is
£465,000 (approximately $628,312) and is subject to annual review. Mr. Forrester is also entitled to participate in the employers benefits scheme. Under our current severance policy, upon termination (other than for cause), Mr. Forrester is entitled to severance consisting of 18 months base
salary continuation plus a pro-rated bonus based on actual performance for the year in which he was terminated. Mr. Forrester is subject to certain restrictive covenants set forth in his employment agreement and the agreements governing his equity awards, including
prohibitions on (i) competing with us during his employment with us and for a period of 12 months thereafter, (ii) soliciting or hiring our customers or employees during his employment with us and for a period of 12 months thereafter and (iii) non-disparagement, confidentiality and intellectual property obligations. Ms. Hay Ms. Hays employment is at will, although the Company set out the general terms of her employment in an offer letter, effective as of
June 10, 2016. Ms. Hays annual base salary under her offer letter is $425,000. Ms. Hay is eligible for a target annual bonus opportunity equal to 50% of her base salary, based on satisfaction of assigned goals, as determined by
the Committee. Upon termination (other than for cause), Ms. Hay is entitled to severance consisting of 12 months base salary continuation plus a pro-rated bonus based on actual performance for the year in
which she was terminated. Ms. Hay is subject to certain restrictive covenants set forth in the agreements governing her equity awards, including
prohibitions on (i) competing with us during her employment with us and for a period of 12 months thereafter, (ii) soliciting or hiring our customers or employees during her employment with us and for a period of 12 months thereafter
and (iii) non-disparagement, confidentiality and intellectual property obligations.  23

Mr. Soloway Mr. Soloways employment is at will, although the Company set out the general terms of his employment in an offer letter, effective as of
February 10, 2014. Mr. Soloway is eligible for a target annual bonus opportunity equal to 50% of his base salary, based on satisfaction of assigned goals, as determined by the Committee. Mr. Soloways employment is terminable by
us or Mr. Soloway at any time on three months notice. We may pay Mr. Soloway an amount equal to three months base salary in lieu of the notice period. Upon termination (other than for cause), Mr. Soloway is entitled to
severance consisting of 12 months base salary continuation plus a pro-rated bonus based on actual performance for the year in which he was terminated. Mr. Soloways base salary is $475,000. Mr. Soloway is eligible for a target annual bonus opportunity equal to $237,500, based on individual
and/or company performance, as determined by the Committee. Mr. Soloway is subject to certain restrictive covenants set forth in the agreements
governing his equity awards, including prohibitions on (i) competing with us during his employment with us and for a period of 12 months thereafter, (ii) soliciting or hiring our customers or employees during his employment with us
and for a period of 12 months thereafter and (iii) non-disparagement, confidentiality and intellectual property obligations. Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control The Named Executive Officers are eligible to receive certain severance payments and benefits under their employment and equity grant agreements or our
Severance Plan in connection with a termination of employment under various circumstances and/or a change in control. The table below provides an
estimate of the value of such payments and benefits assuming that a qualifying termination of employment and, as applicable, a change in control, occurred on December 31, 2018, and assuming a share price of $14.47 per share, the closing price
of the ordinary shares on such date. The actual amounts that would be paid or distributed to the Named Executive Officers as a result of one of the termination events occurring in the future will depend on factors such as the date of termination,
the manner of termination and the terms of the applicable agreements in effect at such time, which could differ materially from the terms and amounts described here. Potential Payments and Benefits upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control Table  Triggering

##### Table of Contents

(1)
The calculations presented in this table illustrate the estimated payments and benefits that would have been
paid to each of the Named Executive Officers had their employment been terminated on December 31, 2018 for each of the following reasons: a termination of employment without cause or a termination of employment by a Named Executive
Officer for good reason (including following a change in control of DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited) or the individuals death or disability. (2)
For purposes of this analysis, Mr. Whites compensation is assumed to be as follows: base salary
equal to $950,000 and outstanding unvested options subject to time-based vesting requirements to purchase 89,350 ordinary shares which are subject to acceleration in the event of a termination event. In the event of his death or disability,
Mr. White is eligible to receive a pro rata portion of his target annual cash bonus opportunity for the year of his death or disability, based on our actual performance for the year. (3)
For purposes of this analysis, Mr. Palmers compensation is assumed to be as follows: base salary
equal to $600,000 and outstanding unvested options subject to time-based vesting requirements to purchase 106,666 ordinary shares, of which 20% of his original grant, or 80,000 options, would accelerate in the absence of a change in control; all
unvested options held by Mr. Palmer would vest in the event of a qualifying termination following a change in control. Includes the vesting of 200,000 options which would only vest if such change of control constitutes a liquidity
event in accordance with the applicable documents governing such awards. In the event of his death or disability, Mr. Palmer is eligible to receive a pro rata portion of his target annual cash bonus opportunity for the year of his death
or disability, based on our actual performance for the year. (4)
For purposes of this analysis, Mr. Forresters compensation is assumed to be as follows: base salary
equal to $628,312 and 117,647 unvested RSUs and 306,666 unvested in-the-money options subject to vesting in the event of a qualifying termination following a change of
control. Includes the vesting of 39,216 RSUs and 200,000 options which would only vest if such change of control constitutes a liquidity event in accordance with the applicable documents governing such awards. Base salary and health and
welfare amounts are converted from GBP to USD at a rate of $1.3508/GBP. (5)
For purposes of this analysis, Ms. Hays compensation is assumed to be as follows: base salary equal
to $425,000 and 20,000 unvested RSUs which vest in the event of a qualifying termination following a change of control. Includes the vesting of 6,667 RSUs which would only vest if such change of control constitutes a liquidity event in
accordance with the applicable documents governing such awards. (6)
For purposes of this analysis, Mr. Soloways compensation is assumed to be as follows: base salary
equal to $475,000 and 25,000 unvested RSUs and 37,777 unvested in-the-money options subject to vesting in the event of a qualifying termination following a change in
control. Includes the vesting of 8,333 RSUs and 23,334 options which would only vest if such change of control constitutes a liquidity event in accordance with the applicable documents governing such awards. (7)
Pursuant to the MEIP, 100% of unvested options subject to time-based vesting conditions shall vest upon a
termination without cause or for good reason within the two year period following a change in control. (8)
No termination of Mr. Whites employment is required for these awards to vest, subject to any
applicable performance criteria, in the event of a liquidity event. These calculations assume that the change in control constitutes a liquidity event and achievement of the highest level of performance. In the absence of a liquidity event, only
307,000 time-based RSUs would vest upon a change in control. Additionally, 716,093 time-based RSUs vest in conjunction with a Qualifying Resignation. Report of Compensation Committee The Compensation
Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this Amendment with management and, based on that review and discussion, recommended to the Board that it be included in this Amendment. This report is submitted by the members of the Compensation Committee that served on the Compensation Committee during the year ended December 31, 2018,
and that participated in the review, discussion and analysis with respect to the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this Amendment. Timothy

Company for the benefit of the limited partners of Holdings LP. The President and Chief Executive Officer of OTPP has delegated to each of Mr. Andrew Taylor and Mr. Rajeev Ruparelia the authority to implement disposition decisions with

Includes an aggregate 954,372 ordinary shares to be issued upon exercise of fully-vested options and options
and restricted stock units that vest or settle within 60 days of April 15, 2019. Item 13. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence Restructuring In connection with our initial public offering, the shareholders of DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited exchanged their shares of DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited for newly
issued shares in Cushman & Wakefield Limited. Following the Share Exchange, Cushman & Wakefield Limited re-registered as a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales
named Cushman & Wakefield plc. Following the Re-registration, the Company undertook a share consolidation of its outstanding ordinary shares, which resulted in a proportional decrease in the number of
ordinary shares outstanding as well as corresponding adjustments to outstanding options and RSUs. Registration Rights Agreement In connection with the closing of our initial public offering, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the Principal Shareholders and Vanke
Service (the Registration Rights Agreement). The Registration Rights Agreement provides TPG (together with its affiliates, TPG), PAG Asia Capital (PAG) and Ontario Teachers Pension Plan Board
(OTPP, and collectively referred to as, along with TPG and PAG, our Principal Shareholders) with demand rights and the Principal Shareholders and Vanke Service (HongKong) Co., Limited
(萬科物業服務(香港)有限公司), a Hong Kong limited company (Vanke Service) with shelf registration rights. In addition, the Registration Rights Agreement provides the
Principal Shareholders and Vanke Service with piggyback registration rights on any registration statement, other than on Forms S-4, S-8 or any other successor form, to
be filed by the Company. These registration rights are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of ordinary shares to be included in a registration statement and our right to delay a
registration statement under certain circumstances. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed to pay certain expenses related to any such
registration and to indemnify the Principal Shareholders and Vanke Service against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act. The
Registration Rights Agreement provides that the parties thereto irrevocably waive the right to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the Registration Rights Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
If this jury trial waiver provision is prohibited by applicable law, an action could nevertheless proceed under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement with a jury trial. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a jury trial waiver under the
federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable under the laws of the State of New York, which govern the Registration Rights Agreement, by
a court of the State of New York or a federal court, which have exclusive jurisdiction over matters arising under the Registration Rights Agreement, applying such law. In determining whether to enforce a jury trial waiver provision, New York courts
and federal courts will consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party has knowingly waived any right to trial by jury. We believe that this is the case with
respect to the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition,  28

##### Table of Contents

New York courts will not enforce a jury trial waiver provision in order to bar a viable setoff or counterclaim sounding in fraud or one which is based upon a creditors negligence in failing
to liquidate collateral upon a guarantors demand, or in the case of an intentional tort claim (as opposed to a contract dispute), none of which we believe are applicable in the case of the Registration Rights Agreement. No condition, stipulation or provision of the Registration Rights Agreement serves as a waiver by any party to the Registration Rights Agreement or by us of
compliance with any provision of the federal securities laws. The Registration Rights Agreement governs the relationship with existing holders of depositary receipts and does not apply to investors in this offering or to the ordinary shares offered
hereby. As a result, the waiver of jury trial provision in the Registration Rights Agreement does not apply to investors in this offering or the ordinary shares offered in this transaction. Purchasers of ordinary shares in the public secondary
market will not be subject to the Registration Rights Agreement. Arrangements with Certain Shareholders In connection with the closing of our initial public offering, we entered into a Shareholders Agreement with the Principal Shareholders (the
Shareholders Agreement). The Shareholders Agreement provides that the Principal Shareholders have certain nomination rights to
designate candidates for nomination to our board of directors. Subject to any restrictions under applicable law or the NYSE rules, each of TPG and PAG also has the ability to appoint one director to each board committee, and OTPP has the ability to
appoint a director to the nominating and corporate governance committee. As set forth in the Shareholders Agreement, for so long as each of TPG and
PAG own at least 7.5% of our total ordinary shares outstanding as of the closing of our initial public offering, TPG and PAG will each be entitled to designate for nomination two of the seats on our board of directors. Thereafter, each of TPG and
PAG will be entitled to designate for nomination one director so long as they each own at least 2.5% of our total ordinary shares outstanding as of the closing of our initial public offering. Further, for so long as OTPP owns at least 2.5% of our
total ordinary shares outstanding as of the closing of our initial public offering, it will be entitled to designate for nomination one director on our board of directors. In addition, the Principal Shareholders jointly have the right to designate for nomination one additional director (the Joint Designee), who must
qualify as independent under the rules and must meet the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, so long as they collectively own at least 50% of our total ordinary shares outstanding as
of the closing of our initial public offering. However, if the Principal Shareholders collectively own at least 50% of our total ordinary shares outstanding as of the closing of our initial public offering and any individually owns less than 2.5% of
our total ordinary shares outstanding as of the closing of our initial public offering, then the Joint Designee shall be designated for nomination solely by the entities that own more than 2.5% of our total ordinary shares outstanding as of the
closing of our initial public offering. We are required, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to take all necessary action (as defined in the
Shareholders Agreement) to cause the board of directors and each board committee to include certain persons designated by the Principal Shareholders in the slate of director nominees recommended by the board of directors for election by the
shareholders and solicit proxies and consents in favor of such director nominees. Subject to the terms of the Shareholders Agreement, each Principal Shareholder agrees to vote its shares in favor of the election of the director nominees
designated by each of the Principal Shareholders. In accordance with the Shareholders Agreement, TPG nominated Mr. Coslet and
Mr. Dattels, PAG nominated Mr. Pan and Ms. Chen and OTPP nominated Mr. Ruparelia to our board of directors. The Principal Shareholders nominated Ms. McLean to our board as Joint Designee. In the case of a vacancy on our board of directors created by the removal or resignation of a director designated by any of the Principal Shareholders, the
Shareholders Agreement requires us to nominate an individual designated by such entity for election to fill the vacancy.  29

The Shareholders Agreement provides that the parties thereto irrevocably submit to mandatory
arbitration in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the Shareholders Agreement against us to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. No condition, stipulation or provision of the Shareholders Agreement serves as a
waiver by any party thereto of compliance with or any rights under any provision of the federal securities laws. The Shareholders Agreement governs the relationship with existing holders of depositary receipts and does not apply to investors
in this offering or to the ordinary shares offered by the Principal Shareholders in the future in the public secondary market. We have also entered into
a shareholders agreement with Vanke Service in connection with the Concurrent Private Placement (the Vanke Shareholders Agreement). The Vanke Shareholders Agreement provides that the parties thereto irrevocably submit
to mandatory arbitration in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the Vanke Shareholders Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. No condition, stipulation or provision of the Vanke Shareholders Agreement
serves as a waiver by any party thereto of compliance with or any rights under any provision of the federal securities laws. The Vanke Shareholders Agreement governs the relationship with Vanke Service and does not apply to investors in this
offering or to any ordinary shares offered by Vanke Service in the future in the public secondary market. In addition, the purchase agreement for the
Concurrent Private Placement provides that the parties thereto irrevocably submit to mandatory arbitration in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the purchase agreement, but does not apply to ongoing compliance with federal securities
laws. To our knowledge, a waiver of federal securities law claims may not be enforceable. No condition, stipulation or provision of the purchase agreement serves as a waiver by us of compliance with or any rights of Vanke Service under any provision
of the federal securities laws. The purchase agreement governs the relationship with Vanke Service and does not apply to investors in this offering or to any ordinary shares offered in the future by Vanke Service in the public secondary market. Directors In connection with our initial public
offering, we adopted a compensation program for the non-employee members of our board of directors who are also not employees of our Principal Shareholders. For additional information on the compensation
provided to our board of directors, see Compensation Discussion and AnalysisDirector Compensation. Certain Relationships From time to time, we do business with other companies affiliated with the Principal Shareholders. We believe that all such arrangements have been
entered into in the ordinary course of business and have been conducted on an arms-length basis. Management Services Agreement Prior to the closing of our initial public offering, TPG and PAG provided management and transaction advisory services to the Company pursuant to a management
services agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company paid $1.1 million, $0.9 million and $0.7 million of transaction advisory fees related to integration and financing activities. Additionally,
the Company paid an annual fee of $4.3 million, payable quarterly, for management advisory services. The management services agreement terminated at the closing of our initial public offering. Upon termination, we paid a one-time termination fee of $11,930,000. Of this amount, TPG received $6,809,000 and PAG received $5,121,000. Deeds of Indemnification In connection with our
initial public offering, we entered into deeds of indemnification with each of our directors and executive officers. Pursuant to these agreements, we agree to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permissible under English law against
liabilities arising out of, or in connection with, the actual or purported exercise of, or failure to exercise, any of his or her powers, duties or responsibilities as a director or officer, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any
proceeding against them as to  30

which they could be indemnified. These agreements do not indemnify our directors against any liability attaching to such individuals in connection with any negligence, default, breach of duty or
breach of trust in relation to the company of which he or she is a director. We also agree to use all reasonable endeavors to provide and maintain appropriate directors and officers liability insurance to the fullest extent permissible
under English law (including ensuring that premiums are properly paid) for their benefit for so long as any claims may lawfully be brought against them. Charter of Aircraft In the ordinary course of our
business, we occasionally charter private aircrafts from unaffiliated air charter companies. Brett White, our Executive Chairman and CEO, owns an aircraft which is managed by an independent air charter company unaffiliated with both Mr. White
and us. We occasionally charter the aircraft owned by Mr. White from this company. The aircraft in the air charter companys fleet, including the aircraft owned by Mr. White, are available to third parties for charter based upon fee
schedules established by the air charter company, with the fees dependent primarily upon the type and size of the aircraft utilized and the duration of the flight. In addition to other authorizations for use of aircraft, our board has approved the
charter of Mr. Whites aircraft for business use for up to 200 flight hours at prevailing prices, which are approximately $6,000 per hour. Because the air charter company establishes the prices and fees for the use of the aircraft in its
fleet, Mr. White does not receive any greater benefit from our charter of the aircraft owned by him than he does from any other third party charter of his aircraft. The use of charter aircraft by Company personnel is governed by our aircraft
use policy and is approved by our board of directors. Non-employee director appointment letters In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into letters of appointment with each of our
non-employee directors. These letters set forth the main terms on which each of our non-employee directors serve on our board of directors. Continued appointment under
the letter is contingent on continued satisfactory performance, re-nomination by the nominating and corporate governance committee and approval of the board of directors,
re-election by the shareholders and any relevant statutory provisions and provisions of our articles of association relating to removal of a director. Depositary Receipt Arrangements Prior to our
initial public offering, a nominee of Holdings LP and a nominee of the other equity owners of DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited, received depositary receipts, each representing one ordinary share in Cushman & Wakefield Limited, in consideration
for their equity in DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited, at a ratio of one of Cushman & Wakefield Limiteds ordinary shares for each share of DTZ Jersey Holdings Limited. The depositary receipts were issued by Computershare Trust Company,
N.A., as depositary (the Depositary), and a nominee for the Depositary (the Depositary Nominee) is the registered holder of Cushman & Wakefield Limiteds ordinary shares issued in exchange for the shares of DTZ
Jersey Holdings Limited. The depositary receipts arrangement was established because, as a result of restrictions on transfer on certain of the
Cushman & Wakefield Limited ordinary shares concerned, those ordinary shares could not be issued directly into DTC at the time of the initial public offering. The use of the Depositary allows for the ordinary shares to be held in the
Depositary initially and subsequently transferred into DTC without the application of U.K. stamp duty or SDRT, provided certain conditions are met. The depositary receipts are not registered or listed on any stock exchange, are not currently
eligible for deposit and clearing in DTC, and no trading market for them is expected to develop. Instead, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and contractual restrictions on transfer, the holders of the depositary receipts may
request of the Depositary that all or a portion of their depositary receipts be cancelled in order to effectuate a transfer of the ordinary shares underlying such depositary receipts to Cede & Co., as nominee/custodian for DTC, which will
hold the transferred ordinary shares on its customary terms, in order to settle trades of such ordinary shares (in the public market or otherwise), or to otherwise hold or transfer such shares through and within the DTC clearance system.  31

##### Table of Contents

Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and contractual restrictions on transfer, the holders
of the depositary receipts are generally entitled to the same rights as a direct holder of ordinary shares in Cushman & Wakefield plc or an investor holding book-entry interests in ordinary shares in Cushman & Wakefield plc through
the DTC clearance system. The deposit agreement governing the depositary receipts representing our ordinary shares provides that holders of depositary receipts irrevocably waive the right to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or
relating to the deposit agreement against us or the depositary to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. If this jury trial waiver provision is prohibited by applicable law, an action could nevertheless proceed under the terms of the
deposit agreement with a jury trial. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a jury trial waiver under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a jury trial waiver provision is
generally enforceable under the laws of the State of New York, which govern the deposit agreement, by a court of the State of New York or a federal court, which have non-exclusive jurisdiction over matters
arising under the deposit agreement, applying such law. In determining whether to enforce a jury trial waiver provision, New York courts and federal courts will consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement
is sufficiently prominent such that a party has knowingly waived any right to trial by jury. We believe that this is the case with respect to the deposit agreement. In addition, New York courts will not enforce a jury trial waiver provision in order
to bar a viable setoff or counterclaim sounding in fraud or one which is based upon a creditors negligence in failing to liquidate collateral upon a guarantors demand, or in the case of an intentional tort claim (as opposed to a contract
dispute), none of which we believe are applicable in the case of the deposit agreement. No condition, stipulation or provision of the deposit agreement
or depositary receipts serves as a waiver by any holder or beneficial owner of depositary receipts or by us or the depositary of compliance with any provision of the federal securities laws. The deposit agreement governs the relationship with
existing holders of depositary receipts and does not apply to investors in this offering or to the ordinary shares offered hereby. As a result, the waiver of jury trial provision in the deposit agreement does not apply to investors in this offering
or the ordinary shares offered in this transaction. In order to conduct resales in the public market, holders of depositary receipts will need to exchange their depositary receipts for ordinary shares and such ordinary shares will not be subject to
the deposit agreement. Policy on Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons Pursuant to our written related party transaction policy, the audit committee of the board of directors is responsible for evaluating each related party
transaction and making a recommendation to the disinterested members of the board of directors as to whether the transaction at issue is fair, reasonable and within our policy and whether it should be ratified and approved. The audit committee, in
making its recommendation, considers various factors, including the benefit of the transaction to us, the terms of the transaction and whether they are at arms-length and in the ordinary course of our
business, the direct or indirect nature of the related persons interest in the transaction, the size and expected term of the transaction and other facts and circumstances that bear on the materiality of the related party transaction under
applicable law and listing standards. The audit committee reviews, at least annually, a summary of our transactions with our directors and officers and with firms that employ our directors, as well as any other related person transactions. Independence of Directors Our business and affairs are
managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our Board has determined that eight out of nine of our current directors are independent as defined under the corporate governance rules of the NYSE. Our Board has determined that each of
Messrs. Coslet, Dattels, Pan, Ruparelia, Mses. Chen, McLean, MacKay and Williamson are independent. We are a controlled company within the
meaning of the NYSE rules. Under the NYSE rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual group or another company is a controlled company and may elect not to comply with certain NYSE corporate
governance standards, including: the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors; the requirement that we have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of  32

##### Table of Contents

independent directors with a written charter addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities; the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of
independent directors with a written charter addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities; and the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees. We are
currently not utilizing these exemptions. If, however, we utilize certain of these exemptions in the future, you will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE corporate governance
standards. The controlled company exception does not modify the independence requirements for the audit committee, and we currently comply
with the audit committee requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and the NYSE rules. Pursuant to such rules, we are allowed to have a majority of independent directors on our audit committee until
one year from the date of effectiveness of the registration statement for our IPO, which will be August 1, 2019. Thereafter, our audit committee is required to be comprised entirely of independent directors. Item 14.
