terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 1. The Plan. This Award is made pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which has been made
available to the Grantee, and the terms of the Plan are incorporated into this Agreement, except as otherwise specifically stated herein. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and any Annex that are not defined in this Agreement or such Annex

 2. Award. Effective as of the date set forth below (the “Grant Date”), the Company hereby grants to the Grantee as
compensation for the Grantee’s service as an employee of the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), the right and option to purchase, subject to the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, all or any part of the
aggregate number of Shares set forth below (the Shares that are deliverable to the Grantee pursuant to exercise of this Option, the “Option Shares”) at a purchase price per Share that will be equal to the Fair Market Value of

 Name of Grantee: [Employee Name]  
 Grant Date: [—]

 Number of Shares: [—] 
 Option Price: $[—] 
 Until the Option Shares are issued to the Grantee pursuant to Section 9, the Grantee has no rights as a shareholder of the Company. THIS AWARD IS SUBJECT TO ALL TERMS, CONDITIONS AND PROVISIONS OF THE
PLAN AND THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY FORFEITURE PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN

 3. Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5, 6, and 22 or
the terms of any employment or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), this Option will vest in respect of one-third of the Option Shares on 







 each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date (each such anniversary, a “Vesting
Date”) and will be exercisable only to the extent that it has vested. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5 and 6 or the terms of any employment or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate), there will be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each Vesting Date and all vesting will occur only on the appropriate Vesting Date. 
 4. Term of Option. This Option will expire at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the seventh anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Expiration Date”) and must be exercised, if at all, on or
before the earlier of the Expiration Date or the date on which this Option is earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement. Upon expiration of this Option, this Option will automatically be
forfeited and canceled by the Company and will immediately cease to be exercisable. 
 5. Termination of Employment. Subject to
the terms of any employment or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) or as determined by the Committee, if the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates terminates
for any reason prior to the final Vesting Date, to the extent this Option has not yet vested in accordance with Sections 3 and 6, it will automatically be forfeited and cancelled by the Company upon such termination of employment, and to the
extent (and only to the extent) that any portion of this Option has previously vested on or prior to the date the Grantee’s employment terminates, that portion of this Option may be exercised by the Grantee no later than 90 days after the date
of such termination (but in no event later than the Expiration Date), except as follows. 
 (a) By the Company
for Cause. If the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) for Cause, upon such termination of employment this Option will automatically be forfeited in full and cancelled by the Company and any
portion of this Option that had previously vested will immediately cease to be exercisable. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means the Grantee’s (i) conviction, or plea of nolo contendere (or a similar
plea), in a criminal proceeding; (ii) misconduct; (iii) dishonesty; (iv) violation of any law, rule, regulation of any governmental authority, securities exchange or association or any other regulatory or self-regulatory body or
agency applicable to the Grantee or the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), or any material violation of the Company’s (or any Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s) policies or procedures; (v) willful or repeated failure or refusal
to perform the Grantee’s duties satisfactorily; (vi) engaging in any activity deemed by the Committee to be contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate); or (vii) such other or different
circumstances as the Committee may determine to constitute Cause; in each case as determined by the Committee, which determination will be final, binding and conclusive; provided, however, that if “Cause” is defined in an employment
or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), that definition will apply in lieu of the definition set forth herein. 
 (b) Death or Disability. If the Grantee’s termination of employment is due to the Grantee’s death or Disability,
this Option will immediately vest in full as of the date of such termination and to the extent that this Option is vested on the date of such termination (after giving effect to the accelerated vesting provided for in this Section 5(b)),
this Option may be exercised by the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate or guardian, as the case may be) no later than one year after the date of such 
  

 -2- 








 termination, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Disability” means the Grantee’s total and permanent disability in accordance with the Company’s long-term disability plan, or if no such plan is applicable to the Grantee, as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion; provided, however, that if “Disability” is defined in an employment or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), that definition will apply in lieu of the definition set forth
herein. 
 (c) Retirement. If the Grantee’s termination of employment is by reason of Retirement and if the
Grantee has completed at least 10 years of continuous service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (including service with any Man Group plc entity before the Effective Date of the Plan) at the time of such termination (or such
shorter period of service as determined by the Committee), the Committee may in its sole discretion provide that this Option (i) will not be forfeited, but will remain outstanding and continue to vest in accordance with this Agreement
notwithstanding the Grantee’s termination of employment or (ii) will vest on a pro rata basis, such that effective as of the date of such termination, this Option will be vested in respect of the aggregate number of Option Shares initially
subject to this Option (taking into account any portion of this Option which has previously vested and/or been exercised) multiplied by the greater of (A) one-third and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have
elapsed from and including the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is 1,095 (the “Pro-Rata Portion”), and this Option in respect of the remainder of the
Option Shares will be forfeited. To the extent that this Option is vested on the date of the Grantee’s termination for Retirement or thereafter (after giving effect to any accelerated or continued vesting that may be provided for by the
Committee pursuant to this Section 5(c)), this Option may be exercised by the Grantee no later than five years after the date of such termination, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Retirement” means a termination after age 60 in accordance with the retirement policies of the Company (or, as applicable, one of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates). 
 (d) Redundancy. If the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) for reasons
of Redundancy (which for avoidance of doubt does not include a termination for death, Disability, Retirement or Cause), subject to the Grantee’s delivering to the Company and not revoking a general release of all claims in such form and
substance satisfactory to the Company within 55 days following the date of such termination, this Option will vest in respect of the Pro-Rata Portion of Option Shares as of the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment, and the remainder
of this Option will be forfeited. To the extent that this Option is vested on the date of the Grantee’s termination for reasons of Redundancy (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting that may be provided for by the Committee pursuant to
this Section 5(d)), this Option may be exercised by the Grantee no later than one year after the date of such termination, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement, whether a termination of the
Grantee’s employment is for reasons of “Redundancy” will be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

 6. Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Plan,
upon a Change in Control, this Option will vest in full and, subject to applicable law, become exercisable in accordance with Section 13 of the Plan. 
 7. Manner of Exercise. 
 (a) Share Option Exercise Agreement. To exercise
this Option, the Grantee (or in the case of exercise after the Grantee’s death, the Grantee’s executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as applicable) must deliver to the Company (or its designee) an executed share option exercise
agreement in such form as may be required by the Company from time to time (the “Exercise Agreement”), which will set forth, inter alia, the Grantee’s election to exercise this Option and the number of Option
Shares being purchased. If someone other than the Grantee exercises this Option, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company that such person has the right to exercise this Option. 
 (b) Limitations on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised unless such exercise is in compliance, to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Committee, with all applicable foreign, federal and state securities laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise. In addition, this Option may not be exercised if the Committee determines that an event constituting Cause has occurred during
the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. 
 (c) Payment. The Exercise Agreement will
be accompanied by full payment of the Option Price for each of the Option Shares being purchased by the Grantee (such aggregate amount, the “Exercise Price”) in cash (or by certified check), or where permitted by law:

 (i) by tender of Shares (that unless otherwise determined by the Committee, are free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances or
security interests) having a Fair Market Value (determined on the date of exercise) equal to the Exercise Price; 
 (ii) provided that a
public market for the Shares exists: (A) through a “same day sale” commitment from the Grantee and an independent broker-dealer that is acceptable to the Company (a “Broker-Dealer”) whereby the Grantee
irrevocably elects to exercise this Option and to sell a portion of the Option Shares so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price and whereby the Broker-Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Option Shares to forward the Exercise Price
directly to the Company; or (B) through a “margin” commitment from the Grantee and a Broker-Dealer whereby the Grantee irrevocably elects to exercise this Option and to pledge the Option Shares so purchased to the Broker-Dealer in a
margin account as security for a loan from the Broker-Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price, and whereby the Broker-Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Option Shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; 

(iii) by any combination of the foregoing; or 
 (iv) at the discretion of the Committee, such other method as may be prescribed from time to time. 
  

 -4- 








 8. Tax Withholding. Prior to the issuance of the Option Shares upon exercise of this Option
or as otherwise required by any local laws, the Grantee will pay, or otherwise provide for to the satisfaction of the Company, any applicable federal, state, local and foreign tax and social security withholding obligations of the Company. To the
extent permitted by law, the Grantee may provide for payment of withholding taxes upon exercise of this Option by requesting that the Company retain Option Shares with a Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of exercise) equal to the
statutory minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld. In such case, the Company will issue the net number of Option Shares to the Grantee by deducting the Option Shares retained from the Option Shares issuable upon exercise of this Option. If
the Grantee fails to make such payment or otherwise satisfy such obligations, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right (but not the obligation) to deduct from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Grantee (including
Option Shares hereunder) any federal, state, local or foreign tax and social security withholding obligations with respect to the Option Shares issuable upon exercise of this Option. 
 9. Issuance of Option Shares. On or as promptly as is practicable after the receipt of the Exercise Agreement, payment of the Exercise
Price and satisfaction of applicable withholding requirements, the Company will issue the Option Shares registered in the name of the Grantee, the Grantee’s authorized assignee or the Grantee’s legal representative, as applicable, and,
upon request, will deliver certificates representing the Option Shares with the appropriate legends affixed thereto. The Company may reasonably postpone the issuance of the Option Shares until it receives satisfactory proof that the issuance of such
Option Shares will not violate any of the provisions of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) promulgated thereunder, or the requirements of
applicable state or foreign law relating to authorization, issuance or sale of securities, or until there has been compliance with the provisions of such acts or rules. The Grantee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or
qualify the Option Shares with the SEC, any state securities commission or any securities exchange to effect such compliance. 
 10.
Legends and Trading Policies. The Company may reasonably restrict the sale, transfer or other disposition of the Option Shares until it receives satisfactory proof that the disposition will not violate any of the provisions of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any rules or regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, or the requirements of applicable state or foreign law relating to the sale, transfer or other disposition of securities, or until there has been
compliance with the provisions of such acts or rules. The Company may affix to certificates representing Option Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement any legend that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable (including to reflect any
restrictions to which the Grantee may be subject under a separate agreement with the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate)). The Company may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against any legended Option Shares. To the extent
applicable, the Grantee agrees that he or she will not sell, transfer by any means or otherwise dispose of the Option Shares acquired by him or her upon exercise of this Option except in accordance with the Company’s insider trading policy
regarding the sale and disposition of securities owned by employees of the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate).

 11. Non-Transferability of Option. Except as otherwise may be provided by the Committee,
this Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or subject to the prior written consent of the Committee (a) by instruments to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which this
Option is passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the Grantee or (b) by gift to Immediate Family, which will include for purposes of this Agreement a family limited partnership or any similar entity which is primarily for the benefit of the
Grantee and the Grantee’s Immediate Family, and may be exercised during the lifetime of the Grantee only by the Grantee or the Grantee’s legal representative. 
 12. Privileges of Share Ownership. The Grantee will not have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Option Shares (and, for avoidance of doubt, will not be deemed to own
any Option Shares for purposes of any employment or similar agreement or otherwise) until the Option Shares are issued to the Grantee. 
 13.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with any Annex), the Plan, the Exercise Agreement and any such other documents as may be executed in connection with the exercise of this Option constitute the entire agreement and
understanding of the Company and the Grantee with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to such subject matter. Any action taken or decision made by the Committee arising out of or in
connection with the construction, administration, interpretation or effect of this Agreement will lie within its sole and absolute discretion, as the case may be, and will be final, conclusive and binding on the Grantee and all persons claiming
under or through the Grantee. In the event of any conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. The Committee reserves the right at any time to amend the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment shall materially impair the Grantee’s rights under this Agreement without the Grantee’s consent (or the consent of the Grantee’s estate, if such consent is
obtained after the Grantee’s death). Any amendment of this Agreement shall be in writing signed by an authorized member of the Committee or a person or persons designated by the Committee. 
 14. Employment Rights.  
 (a)
No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement will confer on the Grantee any right to continue to serve as an employee of, or to continue in any other relationship with, the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate), or
limit in any way the right of the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) to terminate the Grantee’s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 
 (b) Discretion. The Grantee shall not be entitled, and by accepting this Option, he or she shall be deemed to have waived any possible
entitlement, to any compensation for any loss he or she may suffer as a result of the exercise, or the failure to exercise, any of the discretions under the Plan, even if such exercise (or failure to exercise) constitutes a breach of contract by the
Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) or a breach of any other duty owed by the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) or gives rise to any other claim whatsoever. 
 (c) Compensation. If the Grantee shall cease to be employed by or hold office in the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) for any reason whatsoever, including as a result of being wrongfully or
unfairly dismissed, he or she shall not be entitled, and by accepting this Option, he or she shall be deemed to have waived any possible entitlement, to any sum or benefit to compensate him or her for any consequential loss or curtailment of any
right or benefit accrued or in prospect under the Plan, and any such 
 loss or curtailment shall not form part of any claim for damages for breach of any
contract of employment of or compensation for unfair or wrongful dismissal or any other claim whatsoever. 
  

 -6- 








 (d) Claims. By accepting this Option, the Grantee agrees that the waivers and exclusions
contained in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c) and this Section 14(d) apply in relation to any claim he or she may have against the Company or any Subsidiary or any Affiliate which employs (or has employed) him or her and any
officer or employee thereof, as well as to the Company (if it is not the employing entity) and its officers and employees. Such waivers and exclusions are enforceable by those persons in their own right. The Plan may be terminated or varied without
the consent of those persons but not so as to limit or remove the waivers or exclusions in respect of matters which had arisen before the date of the termination or variation. 
 15. Forfeiture upon Breach of Confidentiality, Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Restrictions. The Grantee agrees that cancellation of
this Agreement and forfeiture of all vested and unvested Options will result if the Grantee breaches the restrictive covenants set forth in any employment or similar agreement between the Grantee and the Company (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate) or
in any Annex to this Agreement, the provisions of which are incorporated into this Agreement by reference. 
 16. Notices. Any
notice required to be given or delivered to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be in writing and addressed to the Head of Human Resources of the Company at its principal corporate offices in New York, New York (United States of

Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, all the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement will be binding upon the Grantee and
the Grantee’s heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns. 
 18. Adjustments. In the
event of any change in the outstanding Shares after the Grant Date or any other event described in Section 5 of the Plan occurring after the Grant Date, the Board or the Committee will make such equitable substitution or adjustment (including
cash payments) as provided for under Section 5 of the Plan in order to preserve the value of this Award.
