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

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT:



|1 | Appointment
|- | -----------



|1.1 | The Company shall employ the Executive and the Executive agrees to serve the Company and any other Group Company or Group Companies as required by the Board or any
person authorised by the Board for that purpose, in the capacity of a Director and CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of IHG . The Executives reward band is 1.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|1.2 | Employment hereunder shall commence on 27 September 2011 and shall continue (subject to termination as provided for below) unless and until terminated by either
party giving to the other not less than the following notice period in writing, expiring at any time:
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | notice period from the Company to the Executive: 52 weeks
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | notice period from the Executive to the Company: 26 weeks
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------



|1.3 | The Executive warrants that:
|--- | ----------------------------



| | 1.3.1 | the Executive is not prevented from performing the Executives duties in accordance with the terms of this agreement by any obligation or duty owed to any other
party, whether contractual or otherwise; and
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 1.3.2 | the Executive has all necessary qualifications and memberships required for the Executive to perform the Executives duties under this Agreement and is not and has
not been subject to any prohibition, censure, criticism or disciplinary sanction by any professional, regulatory or other body or authority which would prevent the Executive from performing any duties under this Agreement or undermine the confidence
of the Board in the Employment by the Company.
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|1.4 | Employment is conditional upon the following conditions, if required by the Company:
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | the Executive undergoing a medical examination with a medical practitioner nominated by the Company, the results of which are satisfactory to the Company;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | the Executive providing to the Company copies or other verification of academic, professional or other business qualifications notified to the Company.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2 | Duties and Powers
|- | -----------------



|2.1 | The Executive shall exercise such powers, perform such duties (if any) commensurate with his status as Chief Financial Officer and comply with such reasonable and
lawful directions in relation to the business of the Company or any other Group Company as the Board or any person authorised by the Board for the purpose may, from time to time, confer upon or assign or give to him.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



3



---

|2.2 | The Executive shall, during the continuance of this Agreement (unless prevented by ill health or accident or as otherwise agreed by the Board in writing), devote
substantially the whole of the Executives working time and attention and abilities to the Business and shall use the Executives reasonable endeavours to promote and protect the general interests and welfare of the Company, the Group and
any other Group Company to which the Executive may from time to time render the Executives services under this Agreement.

connection with the Business and the Executives employment under this Agreement.

|2.4 | The Executive shall work normal business hours, which are 35 hours per week, and such additional hours as may be necessary in the performance of the Executives
duties and powers under this Agreement. The nature of the Executives job is such that the Executive is largely able to prioritise tasks, determine the time and effort the Executive devotes to those tasks and when the Executive does them. To
the extent the Executive therefore determines the Executives working hours outside normal business hours, the additional hours will not count as working time towards the weekly working time limit of 48 hours on average. No overtime will be
paid with respect to any hours by the executive outside normal business hours.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

places within the United Kingdom as the Company shall reasonably require. Should the Company wish the Executive to relocate outside the United Kingdom such relocation shall be the subject of agreement between the Company and the Executive.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2 | The Executive may be required to travel both inside and outside the United Kingdom on the business of the Company or any Group Company in the proper performance of the
Executives duties from time to time.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
