duplicative counting of the same securities by the same holder, securities
Beneficially Owned by a Person shall include securities Beneficially Owned by
all Affiliates of such Person and all other Persons with whom such Person would
constitute a "Group" within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the rules promulgated thereunder.

                  "Beneficial Owner" with respect to any securities means a
Person that has Beneficial Ownership of such securities.

                  "Derivative Transaction" means any transaction involving a
security linked to Parent Common Stock, including any equity swap, put, put
equivalent, collar, sale of exchangeable security or similar transaction.

                  "DGCL" means the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended
from time to time.

                  "Person" means an individual, corporation, partnership,
limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated
organization or other entity.

                  "Reuters Parent" means the ultimate parent entity, from time

                  "Transfer" means, with respect to a security, the sale,
transfer, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or disposition of such
security or the Beneficial Ownership thereof, whether directly or indirectly
(pursuant to any transaction involving a security linked to such security,
including any equity swap, put, put equivalent, collar, sale of exchangeable
security or similar transaction, the creation of a derivative security or
otherwise), the offer to make such a sale, transfer or other disposition, and
each option, agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing,
to effect any of the foregoing. As a verb, "Transfer" shall have a correlative
meaning.

                  2. Stockholder Vote. Each Stockholder agrees, severally and
not jointly, that unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with
its terms, (a) at such time as Parent conducts a meeting of or otherwise seeks a
vote or consent of its stockholders for the purpose of approving the Parent
Share Issuance and/or the Parent Charter Amendment it will vote or provide a
consent with respect to and will cause its controlled Affiliates to vote or
provide a consent with respect to, as the case may be, all Subject Shares then
Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder or its controlled Affiliates in favor of
the Parent Share Issuance and/or the Parent Charter Amendment (as applicable)
and (b) it will vote its Subject Shares against, and it will not consent to, and
will cause its controlled Affiliates to vote against and not to consent to, any
Prohibited Transaction. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that
the obligations under this Section 2 shall remain applicable in respect of each
meeting of stockholders of Parent duly called (or solicitation of consents) for
the purpose of approving the Parent Share Issuance and/or the Parent Charter
Amendment and/or any Prohibited Transaction regardless of the position of
Parent's board of directors as to the Parent Share Issuance and/or the Parent
Charter Amendment at the time of such meeting or solicitation.

                  3. Grant of Irrevocable Proxy; Registration Rights. (a) Until
this Agreement is terminated, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints the
Company, its officers, agents and nominees, with full power of substitution, as
proxy for and attorney in fact of the Stockholder to act with respect to and
vote the Subject Shares Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder for and in the
name, place and stead of the Stockholder at any annual, special or other meeting
of the holders of shares of Parent capital stock and at any adjournment or
postponement thereof or pursuant to any written consent in lieu of a meeting, to
the fullest extent that the Subject Shares are entitled to be voted in
accordance with Section 2; provided that the Company, its officers, agents or
nominees may exercise this irrevocable proxy only if such Stockholder fails to
comply with the terms of Section 2. Each Stockholder will cause its controlled
Affiliates to grant such an irrevocable proxy with respect to each Subject Share
now Beneficially Owned or hereafter acquired by such controlled Affiliates. In
all other matters, the Subject Shares shall be voted by and in the manner
determined by the Stockholder upon at least 3 business days' prior written
notice to the Company. Each Stockholder hereby represents that it has not
heretofore granted any irrevocable proxy with respect to the Subject Shares and
hereby revokes any and all proxies which may heretofore have been granted by
such Stockholder with respect to the Subject Shares.

                  (b) Each Stockholder understands and acknowledges that the
Company is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Stockholder's
execution and delivery of this Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby affirms that
the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 3 is given in connection with
and as an inducement for the execution by the Company of the Merger Agreement
and to secure the performance of the duties of the Stockholder under this
Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is
coupled with an interest and may not be revoked. Each Stockholder hereby
ratifies and confirms all that such proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by
virtue hereof in accordance with the provisions hereof. This proxy is executed
and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL.

                  (c) Each Stockholder agrees to take all requisite action in
its power so that as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, and in any
event no later than the expiration of Parent's October 1, 2001 Registration
Rights Agreement, a registration rights agreement will be entered into among the
Stockholders, Parent and certain other Persons on the terms and conditions
described in Exhibit J to the Merger Agreement and in the manner contemplated by
Section 4.17 of the Merger Agreement.

                  4. Additional Covenants of the Stockholders. Each Stockholder
hereby covenants and agrees with the Company that, until this Agreement
terminates:

                  (a) Except as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement,
such Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to (i)
without the prior written consent of the Company, Transfer or consent to
Transfer any or all of the Subject Shares, other than (x) to a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Reuters Parent, provided that such subsidiary agrees in writing to
be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Stockholder and executes a Joinder
Agreement to the Stockholders Agreement in which it agrees to be treated as a
Reuters Party thereunder or (y) any pledge of any Subject Shares in connection
with bona fide debt financings (other than Derivative Transactions) with a
financial institution, provided that, in each case, the interest of any such
financial institution in such shares shall be subject to all of the restrictions
set forth in this Agreement, (ii) reduce such Stockholder's risk (economic or
otherwise) relative to the Subject Shares (including pursuant to any transaction
involving a security linked to Parent Common Stock, including any equity swap,
put, put equivalent, collar, sale of exchangeable security or similar
transaction, the creation of a derivative security or otherwise), (iii) grant
any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any such Subject Shares other
than pursuant to this Agreement or (iv) take any action that would have the
effect of preventing, impeding, interfering with or adversely affecting its
ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any
change in the capital stock of Parent by reason of any stock dividend or
distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the
like (excluding the Merger), the term "Subject Shares" shall be deemed to refer
to and include the Subject Shares as well as all such stock dividends and
distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of the
Subject Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such
transaction.

                  (c) In his, her or its capacity as a stockholder of Parent,
such Stockholder shall not, nor shall such Stockholder permit any controlled
Affiliate of such Stockholder to, nor shall such Stockholder act in concert with
or permit any controlled Affiliate to act in concert with any Person to make, or
in any manner participate in, directly or indirectly, a "solicitation" of
"proxies" (as such terms are used in the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission) or powers of attorney or similar rights to vote, or seek to advise
or influence any Person with respect to the voting of any Securities in
connection with any vote or other action on any matter in a manner inconsistent
with recommending that stockholders of Parent vote (x) in favor of the Parent
Share Issuance and/or the Parent Charter Amendment (as applicable) and otherwise
as expressly provided by this Agreement or (y) against a Prohibited Transaction.

                  (d) Such Stockholder shall not, nor shall such Stockholder

any Person to, deposit any Securities in a voting trust or subject any
Securities to any arrangement or agreement with any Person with respect to the
voting of such Securities, except as expressly provided by this Agreement.

                  (e) Such Stockholder will take all action necessary to (i)
permit the voting of all shares of Company Common Stock Beneficially Owned by
such Stockholder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) prevent
creditors in respect of any pledge of such shares from exercising their rights
under such pledge in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

                  (f) Such Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its controlled
Affiliates and representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit,
initiate, facilitate or encourage any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or
negotiate with, or provide any non-public information to, any Person relating to
any Prohibited Transaction.

                  (g) Unless required by applicable law, such Stockholder shall
not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to, make any press release,
public announcement or other public communication with respect to the business
or affairs of the Company or Parent, including this Agreement and the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, without the
prior written consent of the Company.

                  (h) Such Stockholder will (i) use all reasonable efforts to
cooperate with the Company, Parent and Merger Sub in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) promptly take such
actions as are necessary or appropriate to consummate such transactions, and
(iii) provide any information reasonably requested by the Company, Parent and
Merger Sub for any regulatory application or filing (including any registration
statement) made or approval sought for such transactions.

to, any amendment to the certificate of incorporation of Parent or any other
change in the share capital structure of Parent, including the filing of any
certificate of designations relating to preferred stock.

                  5. Representations and Warranties of the Stockholders. Each

determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, disregarding the
phrase "within 60 days" in paragraph (d)(1)(i) thereof), including pursuant to

duplicative counting of the same securities by the same holder, securities
Beneficially Owned by a Person shall include securities Beneficially Owned by
all Affiliates of such Person and all other Persons with whom such Person would
constitute a "Group" within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the rules promulgated thereunder.

                  "Beneficial Owner" with respect to any securities means a

                  "Pro Rata Securityholder Distribution" means a distribution
(by dividend or otherwise) of the Subject Shares by the Stockholder in respect
of its capital stock or securities exercisable therefor to its stockholders and
optionholders in which the Bain Holders, the TA Holders and the Silver Lake

their fully diluted interest in the Stockholder as of the date hereof adjusted
for the effects of employee stock options or similar stock issuances occurring
after the date hereof) and the other Subject Shares are distributed
substantially as widely as set forth in Section 3.17(a) of the Company
Disclosure Schedule attached to the Merger Agreement, including with respect to
approximate number of security holders and approximate range of sizes of share
holdings.

                  "Transfer" means, with respect to a security, the sale,
transfer, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or disposition of such
security or the Beneficial Ownership thereof, whether directly or indirectly
(pursuant to any transaction involving a security linked to such security,
including any equity swap, put, put equivalent, collar, sale of exchangeable
security or similar transaction, the creation of a derivative security or
otherwise), the offer to make such a sale, transfer or other disposition, and
each option, agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing,
to effect any of the foregoing. As a verb, "Transfer" shall have a correlative
meaning.

                  2. Stockholder Vote. The Stockholder agrees that, unless this
Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, (a) at such time as
the Company conducts a meeting of or otherwise seeks a vote or consent of its
stockholders for the purpose of approving and adopting the Merger Agreement and
the Merger and/or the Company Charter Amendment, it will vote or provide a
consent with respect to and will cause its controlled Affiliates to vote or
provide a consent with respect to, as the case may be, all Subject Shares then
Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder or its controlled Affiliates in favor of
the Merger Agreement and the Merger and/or the Company Charter Amendment (as
applicable) and (b) it will (at any meeting of stockholders) vote its Subject
Shares against, and it will not consent to, and will cause its controlled
Affiliates to vote against and not to consent to, any Prohibited Transaction.
Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that the obligations under this
Section 2 shall remain applicable in respect of each meeting of stockholders of
the Company duly called (or solicitation of consents) for the purpose of
approving the Merger Agreement and the Merger and/or the Company Charter
Amendment and/or any Prohibited Transaction regardless of the position of the
Company's board of directors as to the Merger or any such Prohibited Transaction
at the time of such meeting or solicitation.

                  3. Grant of Irrevocable Proxy; Registration Rights; Merger
Consideration. (a) Until this Agreement is terminated, the Stockholder hereby
irrevocably appoints Parent, its officers, agents and nominees, with full power
of substitution, as proxy for and attorney in fact of the Stockholder to act
with respect to and vote the Subject Shares then Beneficially Owned by the
Stockholder for and in the name, place and stead of the Stockholder at any
annual, special or other meeting of the holders of shares of Company capital
stock and at any adjournment or postponement thereof or pursuant to any written
consent in lieu of a meeting, to the fullest extent that the Subject Shares are
entitled to be voted in accordance with Section 2; provided that Parent, its
officers, agents or nominees may exercise this irrevocable proxy only if the
Stockholder fails to comply with the terms of Section 2. The Stockholder will
cause its controlled Affiliates to grant such an irrevocable proxy with respect
to each Subject Share now Beneficially Owned or hereafter acquired by such
controlled Affiliates. In all other matters, the Subject Shares shall be voted
by and in the manner determined by the Stockholder upon at least 3 business
days' prior written notice to Parent. The Stockholder hereby represents that it
has not heretofore granted any irrevocable proxy with respect to the Subject
Shares and hereby revokes any and all proxies which may heretofore have been
granted by the Stockholder with respect to the Subject Shares.

                  (b) The Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent
is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Stockholder's
execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Stockholder hereby affirms that
the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 3 is given in connection with
and as an inducement for the execution by Parent of the Merger Agreement and to
secure the performance of the duties of the Stockholder under this Agreement.
The Stockholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled
with an interest and may not be revoked. The Stockholder hereby ratifies and
confirms all that such proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue
hereof in accordance with the provisions hereof. This proxy is executed and
intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL.

                  (c) Unless the Subject Shares shall have been distributed (i)
to holders of capital stock of the Stockholder as contemplated by the Ameritrade
Merger Agreement or (ii) a Pro Rata Securityholder Distribution, the Stockholder
agrees to take all requisite action in its power so that as promptly as
practicable after the date hereof, and in any event no later than the expiration
of Parent's October 1, 2001 Registration Rights Agreement, a registration rights
agreement will be entered into among Reuters Limited, Reuters C Corp. and
Reuters Holdings Switzerland SA, Parent, the Stockholder and certain other
Persons on the terms and conditions described in Exhibit J to the Merger
Agreement and in the manner contemplated by Section 4.17 of the Merger
Agreement.

                  (d) The Stockholder hereby agrees that the example of the
allocation of the Merger Consideration set forth in Exhibit 2.7(c)(i) to the
Merger Agreement accurately reflects the method of allocating such Merger
Consideration in accordance with the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.

                  4. Additional Covenants of the Stockholder. The Stockholder
hereby covenants and agrees with Parent that, until this Agreement terminates:

                  (a) Except as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, the
Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to (i)
without the prior written consent of Parent, Transfer or consent to Transfer any
or all of the Subject Shares (other than (A) as contemplated by the Amertitrade
Merger Agreement or (B) a Pro Rata Securityholder Distribution), (ii) reduce the
Stockholder's risk (economic or otherwise) relative to the shares of Parent
Common Stock to be received in the Merger in respect of Subject Shares
Beneficially owned by it (including pursuant to any transaction involving a
security linked to Parent Common Stock, including any equity swap, put, put
equivalent, collar, sale of exchangeable security or similar transaction, the
creation of a derivative security or otherwise), (iii) grant any proxy or
power-of-attorney with respect to any such Subject Shares other than pursuant to
this Agreement or (iv) take any other action that would have the effect of
preventing, impeding, interfering with or adversely affecting its ability to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any
change in the capital stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend or
distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the
like (excluding the Merger), the term "Subject Shares" shall be deemed to refer
to and include the Subject Shares as well as all such stock dividends and
distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of the
Subject Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such
transaction.

                  (c) In his, her or its capacity as a stockholder of the
Company, the Stockholder shall not, nor shall such Stockholder permit any
controlled Affiliate of the Stockholder to, nor shall the Stockholder act in
concert with or permit any controlled Affiliate to act in concert with any
Person to make, or in any manner participate in, directly or indirectly, a
"solicitation" of "proxies" (as such terms are used in the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission) or powers of attorney or similar rights to
vote, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of
any Securities in connection with any vote or other action on any matter in a
manner inconsistent with recommending that stockholders of the Company vote (x)
in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger and the
Company Charter Amendment and otherwise as expressly provided by this Agreement
or (y) against a Prohibited Transaction.

                  (d) The Stockholder shall not, nor shall the Stockholder
permit any controlled Affiliate of the Stockholder to, nor shall the Stockholder
act in concert with or permit any controlled Affiliate to act in concert with
any Person to, deposit any Securities in a voting trust or subject any
Securities to any arrangement or agreement with any Person with respect to the
voting of such Securities, except as expressly provided by this Agreement.

                  (e) The Stockholder will take all action necessary to (i)
permit (x) the shares of Company Common Stock Beneficially Owned by the
Stockholder to be acquired in the Merger and (y) the voting of such shares in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) prevent creditors in
respect of any pledge of such shares from exercising their rights under such
pledge in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

                  (f) The Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its controlled
Affiliates and representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit,
initiate, facilitate or encourage any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or
negotiate with, or provide any non-public information to, any Person relating to
any Prohibited Transaction.

                  (g) Unless required by applicable law, the Stockholder shall
not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to, make any press release,
public announcement or other public communication with respect to the business
or affairs of the Company or Parent, including this Agreement and the Merger
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, without the
prior written consent of Parent.

                  (h) The Stockholder will (i) use all reasonable efforts to
cooperate with the Company, Parent and Merger Sub in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) promptly take such
actions as are necessary or appropriate to consummate such transactions, and
(iii) provide any information reasonably requested by the Company, Parent and
Merger Sub for any regulatory application or filing (including any registration
statement) made or approval sought for such transactions.

                  (i) The Stockholder hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not
to exercise, its appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL in respect
of the Subject Shares in connection with the Merger Agreement and the
transactions contemplated thereby.

                  (j) Other than the Company Charter Amendment, the Stockholder
shall not consent to, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates not to consent
to, any amendment to the certificate of incorporation of the Company or any
other change in the share capital structure of the Company, including the filing
of any certificate of designations relating to preferred stock.

                  (k) The Stockholder shall take all requisite action in its
power to prevent the conversion of the Class L Shares into Class A Shares. In
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Ameritrade Merger Agreement, the Stockholder agrees to distribute the shares of
Class A Common Stock and Class L Common Stock Beneficially Owned by it in
accordance with and in the manner set forth in Section 3.17(a) of the Company
Disclosure Schedule.
