Exhibit 10.40



Restricted Stock Award Agreement



Congratulations on your selection as a Participant in the Hewitt Associates, Inc. Global Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the
Plan). This Award Agreement and the Plan together govern your rights under the Plan and set forth all of the conditions and limitations affecting such rights. Capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Plan or in this Award Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Award Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Plans terms shall supersede and replace the conflicting terms of this Award
Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Hewitt means the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries.



This Award Agreement refers to awards which are delivered via Restricted Stock.



Overview of Your Restricted Stock Award



|1. | Date of Award: The Date of Award is the date you were awarded the Restricted Stock as set forth in the personal statement accompanying the award. (Date of Award).
|-- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2. | Vesting Period: The Restricted Stock shall vest in accordance with the following:
|-- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock will vest, on each of the first, second, third, and fourth anniversaries of July 1, 2005, provided you have continued in the
employment of Hewitt through such anniversary or anniversaries (this time period is referred to herein as the Vesting Period).
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | All restrictions shall lapse and the Restricted Stock shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested upon your termination of employment due to death, provided you have
continued in the employment of Hewitt through your date of death.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | All restrictions shall lapse and the Restricted Stock shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested upon your termination of employment due to Retirement or Early Retirement,
if such Retirement or Early Retirement occurs at least twelve (12) months after July 1, 2005 and provided you have continued in the employment of Hewitt through your date of Retirement or Early Retirement.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | In the event of your termination of employment due to Retirement or Early Retirement within twelve (12) months after July 1, 2005, all restrictions shall lapse and you
shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested in a pro-rated portion of the Restricted Stock, provided you have continued in the employment of Hewitt through your date of Retirement or Early Retirement. The number of Shares that shall vest
shall be determined by multiplying the number of Shares of Restricted Stock by a fraction, where the numerator equals the number of complete calendar months that have elapsed since July 1, 2005 and the denominator is twelve (12). Your month of
termination will be considered a complete calendar month if your date of Retirement or Early Retirement occurs on or after the 15thday of such month. In the event such pro-ration results in a fractional number of Shares vesting, such number shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. All Restricted Stock that do not vest as a result of your Retirement or
Early Retirement shall be forfeited to the Company.

Retirement for purposes of this Award Agreement shall mean your voluntary termination of employment with Hewitt on or after you reach the age of fifty-five (55) and you have completed five (5) years of service with

If you change your employment status from a full-time Employee to a part-time Employee,
you will continue to vest in your Award if you work at least sixty percent (60%) of Hewitts Standard Work Time in total during the applicable Annual Vesting Period. If you work less than sixty percent (60%) of Hewitts Standard
Work Time in an Annual Vesting Period, you will forfeit the portion of the Award related to such Annual Vesting Period to the extent allowed under applicable law. For purposes of this Award Agreement, Standard Work Time means forty

which requires Hewitt to continue to provide benefits under all Hewitt benefit plans, or (iii) which does not exceed twelve (12) weeks, you will continue to vest in your Award. If you take a leave of absence in excess of twelve
(12) weeks (excluding allowable time off which includes,
