	3.	Save for any press announcement agreed between the parties and any publication of information relating to the subject matter of this letter agreement that is substantially
consistent with any disclosures contained in any such press announcement and except as may be required by law, the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers or any securities exchange or regulatory body to which any party is subject, no announcement or
disclosure in connection with the sale of the LSE Shares shall be made by the parties without, in the case of the Purchaser, the prior written consent of Nightingale or The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”) (together, the
“Nasdaq Parties”) or, in the case of the Nasdaq Parties, the prior written consent of the Purchaser, in each case such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Where any announcement or disclosure is made in reliance on
the exception in this paragraph, the party seeking to make the announcement or disclosure shall use all reasonable endeavours to consult with the other (the other being the “Consenting Party”) in advance as to the form, content and
timing of the announcement or disclosure save in relation to any such description as is substantially consistent with any such description previously approved by the Consenting Party and shall take account of the reasonable representations of the
Consenting Party. 

  

	4.	The execution of this letter agreement by or on behalf of each party will constitute a separate representation and warranty by it to the other party that: 

 

	4.1	where it is a corporation, it is validly incorporated, in existence and duly registered under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and where it is not a corporation it is
validly established and duly registered with the required authorities; 

  

	4.2	it has the requisite power and authority to enter into and to perform its obligations under this letter agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated in relation to it
hereby and, so far as it is aware having made due and careful enquiry, all authorisations, approvals, consents and licences required by it from any third party in order for it to lawfully enter into this letter agreement and comply with its
obligations hereunder have been unconditionally obtained and are in full force and effect; 

  

	4.3	the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, this letter agreement will not result in a breach of any provision of its constitutional documents or
result in a breach of any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency to which it is party or by which it is bound or of any other contractual commitment to which it is party; 

  

	4.4	in the case of the Purchaser it has and, on the Settlement Date will have, sufficient cash available to it to enable it to fully perform its obligations under this letter agreement
and the transaction contemplated thereby; 

  

	4.5	save as disclosed in or pursuant to this letter agreement it does not have any interest in securities of LSE (within the meaning thereof for the purposes of the City Code on
Takeovers and Mergers) and is not aware of any person that might be deemed to be acting in concert with it in relation to the LSE that has any such interest other than the other parties to this letter agreement; 

	4.6	it does not hold any information in relation to LSE that constitutes inside information for the purposes of the Criminal Justice Act 1993 or the Financial Services and Markets Act
2000 other than its knowledge of the transactions contemplated in this letter agreement; 

  

	4.7	in the case of Nightingale and Nasdaq respectively, Nightingale currently owns 61,291,387 ordinary shares of 6 79/86 pence each in the capital of LSE and Nasdaq currently owns 2
ordinary shares of 6 79/86 pence each in the capital of LSE; and 

  

	4.8	in the case of Nightingale and Nasdaq, they have together provided the Purchaser with substantially the same information in relation to the LSE Shares as has been provided by them
to other prospective purchasers of the LSE Shares. 

  

	5.	Any time, date or period referred to in this letter agreement may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties, but as regards any time, date or period originally fixed or any
time, date or period so extended, time shall be of the essence. 

  

	6.	Each of Nightingale and the Purchaser shall pay its own costs relating and incidental to this letter agreement. The Purchaser will pay any and all stamp or other duties or taxes in
connection with the transfer to the Purchaser of the LSE Shares. 

  

	7.	This letter agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto in connection with the transfer of the LSE Shares contemplated hereunder. Each
party acknowledges that it has not relied on or been induced to enter into this letter agreement by any representation or warranty other than as set out in this letter agreement. No party shall be liable to the other (in equity, contract or tort,
under the Misrepresentation Act 1967 or in any other way) in relation to the sale and purchase of the LSE Shares for a representation that is not set out in this letter agreement. Nothing in this paragraph 7 shall have the effect of limiting or
restricting any liability of the parties arising as a result of any fraud, wilful misconduct or wilful concealment. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither Nightingale nor any of its affiliates (including Nasdaq) owes any duty of care in
relation to any information provided in connection with the sale and purchase of the LSE Shares including information relating to LSE. 

  

	8.	Neither Nightingale nor the Purchaser intend that any term of this letter agreement shall be enforceable, by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999, by any
person who is not a party to this letter agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any benefits under this letter agreement are conferred on any third party by virtue of such statute, the parties to this letter agreement may agree to vary or
rescind the terms hereof without any such third party’s consent. 

  

	9.	This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute the same agreement.

  

	10.	This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits (on behalf of themselves and on behalf of
any person on whose behalf they are acting) to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts and waives any objection to proceedings in such courts on the ground of venue or on the ground that the proceedings have been brought in an inappropriate
or inconvenient forum.

returning the same to Nightingale at the address shown at the top of the first page of this letter agreement.
