 New York Stock Exchange and Subsidiary Companies 
 Supplemental Executive Savings Plan 
 (Formerly, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. 
 Supplemental Executive Savings Plan) 
  

	1.	Introduction. 

 (a) Background; Purpose
of Plan. The New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Supplemental Executive Savings Plan (“Plan”) was adopted effective as of September 7, 1989 in order to provide deferred compensation to a select group of management or highly
compensated employees. The Plan was subsequently amended and restated effective as of August 1, 1997 to form three (3) separate plans (Plans A, B and C) that were encompassed within the same plan document. The Plan was amended and restated
effective as of January 1, 2005 to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Plan was subsequently amended effective January 1, 2007 to provide for a unified, single plan
structure going forward. 
 The Plan, as set forth herein, is amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2008, in order to reflect
the merger of the Securities Industry Automation Corporation Supplemental Executive Savings Plan (“SIAC SESP”) with and into the Plan effective as of such date. In addition, effective as of January 1, 2008, the Plan has been re-named
to be the “New York Stock Exchange and Subsidiary Companies Supplemental Executive Savings Plan.” The benefits of any participant in the SIAC SESP who does not perform an “Hour of Service,” as defined in the New York Stock
Exchange and Subsidiary Companies Employee Savings Plan, on or after January 1, 2008 shall be governed by the provisions of the SIAC SESP which covered such participant and was in effect on the date that the participant terminated employment.
The accounts of individuals who were participants in the SIAC SESP on December 31, 2007 will be transferred to the Plan effective as of January 1, 2008 as part of the plan merger. These accounts will be maintained under the Plan in
accordance with the terms and provisions set forth herein. 
 The purpose of the Plan continues to be to provide deferred compensation to a
select group of management or highly compensated employees of NYSE Group, Inc. and subsidiaries that have adopted the Plan. 
 (b)
Section 409A of the Code. As indicated above, the Plan was amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2005, to comply with Section 409A of the Code. As part of the restatement, the Plan was bifurcated into
grandfathered and non-grandfathered component plans. Deferrals made prior to January 1, 2005 and earnings thereon are grandfathered for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan in effect
prior to the January 1, 2005 restatement, which is referred to as the “Grandfathered Plan.” Deferrals made on and after January 1, 2005 and earnings thereon are not grandfathered for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and
are governed by the terms and conditions of the Plan as amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2005 and as may be amended thereafter. Recordkeeping for the Grandfathered Plan and the Plan is done separately. 

 This Plan is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and
shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that any payment or benefit hereunder is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the
Code, including all regulations, whether proposed or final, or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto.

for such Supplemental Plan Year. If, during a Supplemental Plan Year, an Employee becomes an Eligible Employee, either as a result of promotion to the position of Officer or commencement of employment with the Employer as an Officer, such Eligible
Employee may elect to become an Active Participant prior to the end of the thirty (30) day period following the date that he becomes an Eligible Employee by completing and filing one or more Salary Reduction Agreement(s) with the Committee;
provided, however, that, such Salary Reduction Agreement(s) may only provide for the deferral of Salary and/or Annual Bonus that is earned by the Eligible Employee subsequent to his enrollment in the Plan The Participant’s enrollment
application shall evidence his agreement to the terms of the Plan and include up to two Salary Reduction Agreements. If the Participant is an Officer, he is eligible to enter into a Salary Reduction Agreement to defer a percentage of Salary and/or
he may enter into a second Salary Reduction Agreement to defer a percentage of his Annual Bonus, in each case subject to the limitations set forth below. If the Participant is not an Officer, he is eligible to enter into a Salary Reduction Agreement

follows: 
 (i) from 1% to 25% of the Participant’s Salary not in excess of the Target Compensation Limit, plus

deferral percentages such that his or her aggregate contributions under this Section 3(a) would reduce the Participant’s Salary below the Compensation Limit, such Participant’s deferral percentages applicable to his or her Salary not
in excess of the Target Compensation Limit shall be reduced as necessary to comply with this Section 3(a).

who satisfies the criteria described in this Section 3(a) and is eligible to receive an Annual Bonus, may elect to contribute to the Plan from 1% to 25% of such Annual Bonus. 
 (b) A Participant shall not be permitted to terminate or change his Salary Reduction Agreement during any Supplemental Plan Year to which such

such Participant’s year-to-date Salary for the Supplemental Plan Year less the Participant’s aggregate deferrals of year-to-date Salary to the Plan
for the Supplemental Plan Year does not exceed the Compensation Limit); 
 (B) equals the percentage of Salary not in excess
of the Target Compensation Limit that the Active Participant has elected to defer under the Plan for the applicable Supplemental Plan Year (but not in excess of 6%);

Supplemental Plan Year less the Participant’s aggregate deferrals of year-to-date Salary to the Plan for the Supplemental Plan Year exceeds the Compensation Limit); 
 (B) equals the percentage of Salary in excess of the Target Compensation Limit that the Active Participant has elected to defer under the

other dates as are selected by the Committee in its sole discretion, with Earnings (including gains or losses, whether or not realized, in the value of the measuring alternative) from the last business day of the prior calendar month, or such other
dates as are determined by the Committee, at a rate equal to the performance of the measuring alternatives selected by the Participant (in accordance with Section 7(b) below) for the calendar month (or such other applicable period) to which
such selection relates. The crediting of an Earnings factor shall occur so long as there is a balance in the Participant’s Account with respect to benefits that are to be paid on the last business day of a month. Earnings shall be credited to
the Account from which benefits are to be paid before determining the amount to be paid on such day. 
 (b) Upon electing to become a
Participant in the Plan, a Participant shall select in the time and manner prescribed by the Committee, from among the measuring alternatives available under the Plan, if any, for the measuring of Earnings on such Participant’s Account. A

by the Committee, in its sole discretion), subject to such notice and other administrative procedures as established by the Committee. A Participant may transfer funds “invested” for measuring purposes in accordance with the
Participant’s elected measuring alternatives to differing measuring alternatives as of the beginning of the following calendar month (or at such other times as prescribed by the Committee, in its sole discretion), subject to such notice and
other administrative procedures as established by the Committee. To the extent applicable, allocation of funds among Plan A, Plan B and Plan C to the Participant’s selected measuring alternatives shall be made pro-rata in accordance with the
rules established by the Committee. 
 (c) The Committee may, in its sole discretion, establish rules and procedures for the crediting

	8.	Payment of Supplemental and Special RAP Contributions Accounts. 

 (a) Upon a Participant’s election to participate in the Plan, he shall make elections to receive his Supplemental Account and his Special RAP Contributions Account either in a lump sum distribution or
approximately equal annual installments over a period of 2 to 20 years as elected by the Participant, to commence as soon as administratively feasible following (i) the Participant’s Termination of Employment (other than by reason of
death), (ii) the January 1 next following his Termination of Employment or (iii) as soon as administratively feasible following 

 
the first anniversary of his Termination of Employment. The Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account of a Participant who elects to receive
annual installment payments from such accounts shall continue to be credited with Earnings until the final installment is paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the time and form of payment distribution election applicable to a Participant’s
Supplemental Account, including any separate plan encompassed within the Plan or sub-account, must be identical. However, a Participant may make different time and form of payment elections for his Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions
Account. If a Participant does not make a distribution election with respect to the time and form of payment of his Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account, the amount credited to such accounts shall be paid to him as follows:
(i) to the extent applicable, with respect to a Participant who incurs a Separation from Service prior to December 31, 2008, pursuant to the distribution election made by the Participant with respect to the Supplemental Benefits payable to
him under the Grandfathered Plan or (ii) in a single lump sum payment to be made as soon as administratively feasible following his Termination of Employment (other than by reason of death). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event
shall any distribution commence to be made to any Participant who is a “Specified Employee” prior to a date that is six months after the date of such Participant’s Termination of Employment unless the termination is due to Disability
or death. 
 (b) A Participant may change an existing distribution election regarding the time and form of payment of his Supplemental
Account or Special RAP Contributions Account and make a new election from among the available options set forth in Section 8(a) above by filing the prescribed form with the Committee at least one (1) year prior to the Participant’s
Termination of Employment (“One Year Rule”); provided, however, that the foregoing rule shall not apply to changes in distribution elections made by Participants prior to December 31, 2008. Effective for Supplemental Plan Years
beginning on or after January 1, 2009, in addition to the One Year Rule, a change in a distribution election shall not be given effect under the Plan unless (i) the new election is made at least 12 months prior to the date that the
distribution would otherwise commence; (ii) the new election delays the commencement of the distribution to the Participant by five years from the date that the distribution would otherwise have been made pursuant to the Participant’s
initial election or any subsequent election, as the case may be; and (iii) the new election does not become effective until 12 months after the date that it is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall any distribution
commence to be made to any Participant who is a “Specified Employee” prior to a date that is six months after the date of such Participant’s Termination of Employment unless the termination is due to Disability or death. 

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 8(d) below, a Participant shall have the right, in a writing filed with the Committee, to make an
election, prior to his Termination of Employment, to have the portion of his Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account that is payable at his death to be paid to his Beneficiary in a lump sum distribution or approximately equal
annual installments, over a period of 2 to 20 years as elected by the Participant and to commence as soon as administratively feasible following (i) his death, (ii) the January 1 next following his death or (iii) as soon as
administratively feasible following the first anniversary of his death. Such elections (or any election to revoke or change a prior election) must be made and filed with the Committee at least one year prior to the earlier of the Participant’s
death or Termination of Employment in order to be given effect under the Plan. 

 Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Section 8(c), in the event that a distribution election is not on
file under the Plan for a Participant at the time of his death, the Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account payable on behalf of such deceased Participant shall be paid to his Beneficiary in accordance with the Participant’s
election under the Grandfathered Plan, if applicable, or, in a single lump sum, paid as soon as administratively feasible following the Participant’s death. 
 (d) In the event that a Participant who has elected to have his Account distributed to him in installment payments dies prior to receipt of his entire Account, the portion remaining payable at his death shall
be distributed to his Beneficiary in exactly the same manner in which the Account had been distributed to the Participant prior to his death. 
 (e) A Participant (or Beneficiary, as the case may be) shall only be entitled to a distribution of the vested portion of his Account. 
 (f) Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained herein, an Eligible FINRA Participant who changed his distribution election pursuant to Section 9 of the Prior Plan shall be entitled to have his
Account distributed in accordance with the new election. The term “Eligible FINRA Participant” shall have the meaning ascribed to it under Section 9 of the Prior Plan. 
  

	9.	Payment of SIAC SESP Grandfathered Accounts. 

 (a) A Participant shall be permitted, in the time and manner prescribed by the Committee, to elect to have his SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account distributed to him upon his retirement or Employment Termination (as defined below) or to
his Beneficiary, in the event of his death, in one of the following forms of distribution: 
 (A) Single Payment. Payment of the
Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account, valued as of the end of the month coincident with or next following the event occasioning the payment, in a single sum payment made as soon as administratively practicable following such valuation
date. 
 (B) Deferred Single Payment. Payment of the Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account, valued as of the end of the
month coincident with or next following the first anniversary of the event occasioning payment in a single sum payment made as soon as administratively practicable following such valuation date. 
 (C) Annual Installment. Payments of the Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account in annual installments over 10 years or over a period
of 2 to 5 years as elected by the Participant. The first annual installment payment shall be based on the value of the account as of the end of the month coincident with or next following the event occasioning distribution and shall be paid on or as
soon as practicable after such date. Each subsequent annual installment shall be paid as soon as practicable after the annual anniversary of such initial valuation date, based on the value of the account, determined by dividing the value of the
account, determined in accordance with the foregoing, by the number of annual installments due and not yet distributed. 

 (D) Deferred Annual Installment. Payments of the Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered
Account as provided pursuant to the Annual Installment form described in subsection (C) above except that the first annual installment shall be made as soon as practicable after the first anniversary of the event occasioning payment based on
the value of the account at such first anniversary date. Each subsequent annual installment shall be determined by dividing the value of the account, determined in accordance with the foregoing, by the number of annual installments due and not yet
distributed. 
 To the extent applicable, a Participant may make different distribution elections for sub-accounts in his SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account.

 (b) A Participant may, in the time and manner prescribed by the Committee, change the distribution election in effect for his SIAC
SESP Grandfathered Account (or with respect to any sub-account in such account) provided, however, that no change in any distribution election will be effective prior to the expiration of a period of one year after the date that it is made. If a
Participant does not timely or properly make a time and form of payment distribution election, distribution of such Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account shall be made to him pursuant to the Single Payment form of distribution described
in Section 9(a)(A) above. Once payment of a Participant’s SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account has commenced, such Participant shall not be permitted to change the form of distribution during his lifetime. 
 (c) A Participant may also, in the time and manner prescribed by the Committee, elect to have the distribution of his SIAC SESP Grandfathered
Account be made to his Beneficiary, in the event of his death, in one of the forms of distribution set forth in Section 9(a) above. A Participant may make different distribution elections for sub-accounts in his SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account.
A Participant may change an election made pursuant to this section at any time. 
 (d) A Participant shall not be eligible to receive
a distribution of his SIAC SESP Grandfathered Account pursuant to an distribution election made under this Section 9 until such Participant has incurred an Employment Termination (as defined below). 
 (e) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to be contrary, any distribution from the Plan to a trust or estate which is the Beneficiary of a
Participant shall be made in a lump sum regardless of the Participant’s election. 
 (f) The following capitalized terms shall
have the meanings ascribed to them below for purposes of this Section 9: 
 (A) “Employment Termination” means the termination
of employment of a Participant with the Employer, the SIAC Controlled Group and the Affiliated Organizations for any reason whatsoever, including but not limited to death, Disability, retirement, resignation or involuntary termination. 

(B) “SIAC Controlled Group” means SIAC and any corporation which is a member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in
Section 414(b) of the code) which includes SIAC and any trade or business (whether or note incorporated) which is under common control (as defined in Section 414(c) of the Code) with SIAC. 

 (C) “Affiliated Organization” means any of The Depositary Trust and Clearing Corporation, The
Depositary Trust Company, and the National Securities Clearing Corporation. 
  

	10.	Claims Procedure. 

 (a) The Committee
shall appoint an administrator (“Administrator”) who shall have the authority and discretion to determine all initial claims for benefits under the Plan by Participants or their Beneficiaries based on the Plan documents. Within ninety
(90) days after receiving a claim (or within forty-five (45) days if the claim involves a determination of Disability (“Disability Claim”)), the Administrator shall notify the Participant or Beneficiary of his decision in
writing, giving the reasons for the decision, if adverse to the claimant, and the other required information specified in this Section 10(a) below. The 90-day period may be extended for up to one hundred and eighty (180) days (or in the
case of a Disability Claim, for seventy-five (75) days or up to a maximum of one hundred and five (105) days), if the claimant is notified of the need for additional time, including notification of the reason for the delay. Notification of
the need for an extension shall be provided by the Administrator to the claimant prior to the end of the initial 90-day period or initial 45-day period in the case of a Disability Claim. If the decision is adverse to the claimant, the Administrator
shall advise the claimant of the specific reason(s) for the denial, the Plan provisions involved, of any additional information or material that he must provide to perfect his claim and why, and of his right to request a review of the decision, the
procedures to be followed and the claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination. 
 (b) A claimant may request a review of an adverse decision by written request to the Committee made within sixty (60) days (or within one hundred and eighty days (180) days, if a Disability Claim)
after receipt of the decision. The claimant, or his duly authorized representative, may review pertinent documents and submit written issues and comments. In the case of a Disability Claim, if the Administrator is also a member of the Committee,
such Administrator shall not be permitted to review the appeal of such claim. 
 (c) Within sixty (60) days (or within forty-five
(45) days if a Disability Claim), after receiving a request for review, the Committee shall notify the claimant in writing of (i) its decision; (ii) the specific reasons for the adverse benefit determination, with references to the
specific Plan provisions upon which the denial is based; (iii) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to
the claim; and (iv) a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA. If the Committee determines that additional time is needed to review the claim, the initial 60-day period (or initial
45-day period in the case of a Disability Claim) may be extended by 60 days from the end of the initial 60-day period or, in the case of a Disability Claim, by 45 days from the end of the initial 45-day period. The extension notice will indicate the
special circumstances requiring the extension and will indicate the date by which the Committee expects to make a determination upon review. 
 (d) The Committee may at any time alter the claims procedure set forth above, so long as the revised claims procedure complies with Section 503 of ERISA, and the regulations issued thereunder (“ERISA Claims Procedure
Rules”). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the ERISA Claims Procedure Rules are incorporated herein by reference. 

 (e) The Administrator and the Committee shall have the full power and authority to interpret,
construe and administer this Plan in their sole discretion based on the provisions of the Plan documents and to decide any questions and settle all controversies that may arise in connection with the Plan. Interpretations and constructions of the
Plan made by the Administrator and the Committee and actions taken thereunder, made in their sole discretion, including any valuation of the Accounts, any determination under this Section 10, or the amount of the payment to be made hereunder,
shall be based on the Plan documents and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons for all persons. Neither the Administrator nor any member of the Committee (or any designee of the Committee) shall be liable to any person for any action
taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of this Plan. To the extent that a form prescribed by the Committee (or its designee) to be used in the operation and administration of the Plan does not conflict with the
terms and provisions of the Plan document, such form shall be evidence of (i) the Committee’s interpretation, construction and administration of this Plan and (ii) decisions or rules made by the Committee (or its designee) pursuant to
the authority granted to the Committee under the Plan. 
  

	11.	Construction of Plan. 

 (a) This Plan
is “unfunded” and the benefits payable hereunder shall be paid by the Employer out of its general assets. Participants and their designated Beneficiaries shall not have any interest in any specific asset of the Employer as a result of this
Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship amongst any Employer, the Committee, and the Participants, their
designated Beneficiaries or any other person. Any funds which may be invested under the provisions of this Plan shall continue for all purposes to be part of the general funds of the applicable Employer and no person other than the applicable
Employer shall by virtue of the provisions of this Plan have any interest in such funds. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from any Employer under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any
unsecured general creditor of the Employer. The Employer may, in its sole discretion, establish a “rabbi trust” to pay benefits hereunder. 
 (b) Each Employer shall be liable for the obligations hereunder only with respect to deferrals, Matching Contributions, Special RAP Contributions and Earnings thereon, attributable to each Participant’s
Salary paid by such Employer, and not with respect to the deferrals paid by any other Employer. Any amounts paid by an Employer for another Employer to a Participant shall be deemed merely an accommodation and administrative convenience and not an
acknowledgment in any manner of any liability for the obligations of such other Employer. 
 (c) All expenses incurred in
administering the Plan shall be paid by the Employer. 
 (d) At such times as the Committee may determine, but not less frequently
than annually, each Participant shall be given a statement setting forth the value of his Account. 

 (e) All consents, elections and other actions required or permitted to be made by Participants or
other persons under the Plan shall be made in writing on such forms and in such manner as the Committee (or its designee) may require from time to time. Forms shall be effective only if filed with the Committee (or its designee). 
  

	12.	Limitation of Rights. 

 Nothing contained
herein shall be construed as conferring upon an Employee the right to continue in the employ of any Employer as an executive or in any other capacity or to interfere with the Employer’s right to discharge him at any time for any reason
whatsoever. 
  

	13.	Payment Not Salary. 

 Any benefits payable
under this Plan shall not be deemed salary or other compensation to the Employee for the purposes of computing benefits to which he may be entitled under any pension plan or other arrangement of any Employer for the benefit of its employees.

  

	14.	Severability. 

 In case any provision of this
Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision never existed. 
  

	15.	Withholding. 

 All payments under this Plan
shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts relating to federal, state or local taxes as each Employer may reasonably determine it should withhold based on applicable law or regulations. 
  

	16.	Assignment. 

 This Plan shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Employers, their successors and assigns and the Participants and their heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. In the event that any Employer sells or transfers all or substantially all of the
assets of its business and the acquiror of such assets assumes the obligations hereunder, the Employer shall be released from any liability imposed herein and shall have no obligation to provide any benefits payable hereunder. 
  

	17.	Non-Alienation of Benefits. 

 The benefits
payable under this Plan shall not be subject to alienation, transfer, assignment, garnishment, execution or levy of any kind, and any attempt to cause any benefits to be so subjected shall not be recognized. 

	18.	Governing Law. 

 To the extent legally
required, the Code and Parts 1 and 5 of Title I of ERISA shall govern the Plan, as applicable and, if any provision hereof is in violation of any applicable requirement of the Code or ERISA, the Board reserves the right to retroactively amend the
applicable Plan to comply therewith. To the extent not governed by the Code and Parts 1 and 5 of Title I of ERISA, the Plans shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law provisions. 
  

	19.	Amendment or Termination of Plan. 

 The Board
(or a duly authorized committee thereof), or a person designated by the Board may, in its or his sole and absolute discretion, amend this Plan or any component plan thereof from time to time and at any time in such manner as it or he deems
appropriate or desirable, and the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) or a person designated by the Board may, in its or his sole and absolute discretion, terminate the Plan or any component plan thereof for any reason or no reason from
time to time and at any time in such manner as it or he deems appropriate or desirable. An Employer may withdraw from this Plan at any time, in which case it shall be deemed to maintain a separate plan for Participants who are its employees
identical to this Plan except that such Employer shall be deemed to be the “NYSE” for all purposes. No amendment, termination or withdrawal shall reduce or terminate the then vested benefit of any Participant or Beneficiary. Upon the
termination or a withdrawal by an Employer from the Plan, the Employer shall not be permitted to accelerate the distribution of Accounts to Participants and Beneficiaries hereunder; if such event occurs, Accounts shall be distributed as provided in
Sections 8 and 9 of the Plan and in accordance with the elections then in effect made by Participants and Beneficiaries. 
  

	20.	Non-Exclusivity. 

 The adoption of the Plan
by an Employer shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Employer to adopt such other supplemental retirement income arrangements as it deems desirable, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or limited
in application. 
  

	21.	Non-Employment. 

 This Plan is not an
agreement of employment and it shall not grant the employee any rights of employment. 
  

	22.	Gender and Number. 

 Wherever used in this
Plan, the masculine shall be deemed to include the feminine and the singular shall be deemed to include the plural, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. 

	23.	Headings and Captions. 

 The headings and
captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only. They shall not be considered part of the Plan and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan. 
  

	24.	Interpretation of the Plan. 

 The Committee
shall have the authority to adopt, alter or repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan and perform all acts as it shall from time to time deem advisable; to construe and interpret the terms and provisions of the
Plan; and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. The Committee, in its discretion, may delegate its authority hereunder to one or more Employees of the Employer for purposes of handling the day-to-day administration of the Plan. The
Plan shall be subject to, and administered in accordance with, the Rules of Operation and Administration of the NYSE Group, Inc. and Affiliates NonQualified Deferred Compensation Plans, the provisions of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

  

	25.	Construction of Words. 

 Whenever used in the
Plan, a masculine pronoun shall be deemed to include the masculine and feminine pronoun and a singular word shall be deemed to include the singular and the plural in all cases where the context so requires. 
  

	26.	Entire Agreement. 

 This Plan, along with the
Participants’ elections hereunder, constitutes the entire agreement between the Employer and the Participants pertaining to the subject matter herein and supersedes any other plan or agreement, whether written or oral, pertaining to the subject
matter herein. No agreements or representations, other than as set forth herein, have been made by the Employer with respect to the subject matter herein. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the NYSE has caused this Plan to be executed this
            day of             , 2007.

	By:
	Title:Amendment Number One to Supplemental Executive Savings Plan

 Exhibit 10.54 
 NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES 
 SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE SAVINGS PLAN

 (Amended and Restated Effective as of January 1, 2008) 
 AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE 
 WHEREAS, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.,
succeeded effective March 7, 2006 by New York Stock Exchange LLC, Inc. (the “Company”), established the New York Stock Exchange and Subsidiary Companies Supplemental Executive Savings Plan (formerly the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
Supplemental Executive Savings Plan) (the “Plan”), which Plan has been amended from time to time, and was most recently amended and restated as January 1, 2008; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to make certain amendments to the Plan to reflect final Treasury regulations under Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company delegated to NYSE Group, Inc. the right to amend the Plan. 

NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended as follows, effective as of January 1, 2008: 
 1. The following language is added to the end of Section 1(b) of the Plan: 
 The Committee is authorized to amend the provisions of the Plan at any time and in any manner without the consent of Participants solely to comply with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and to avoid the imposition of an excise tax under Section 409A on any payment to be made hereunder, provided that there is no reduction in the benefits provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event whatsoever shall the Employer be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on a Participant by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. 

 2. Section 2(j) of the Plan is amended to read as follows; 
 “Disability” means (i) the Participant is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months or (ii) an incapacity for which the Participant is receiving, for at least three
months, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, disability benefits under the Employer’s Long
Term Disability Plan (or would be eligible to receive such benefits if the Participant had participated in such plan) or for which the Participant is receiving Social Security disability benefits. 
 3. Sections 8(a), (b) and (c) of the Plan are amended to read as follows: 
 (a) Upon a Participant’s election to participate in the Plan, he shall make elections to receive his Supplemental Account and his Special RAP
Contributions Account either in a lump sum distribution or approximately equal annual installments over a period of 2 to 20 years, as elected by the Participant. Each such distribution shall be paid or commence on (i) the first day of the month
coincident with or next following the Participant’s Termination of Employment (other than by reason of death), (ii) the January 1 next following his Termination of Employment or (iii) the first day of the month coincident with or
next following the first anniversary of his Termination of Employment, as elected by the Participant. The Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account of a Participant who elects to receive annual installment payments from such
accounts shall continue to be credited with Earnings until the final installment is paid. Each installment elected by the Participant shall equal the balance in the Participant’s Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contribution Account
immediately prior to the date of distribution, divided by the number of unpaid installments and shall be paid on the annual anniversary of the first installment, until all installments elected by the Participant have been paid. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the time and form of payment distribution election applicable to a Participant’s Supplemental Account, including any separate plan encompassed within the Plan or sub-account, must be identical. However, a Participant may make
different time and form of payment elections for his Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account. If a Participant does not make a distribution election with respect to the time and form of payment of his Supplemental Account and
Special RAP Contributions Account, the amount credited to such accounts shall be paid to him as follows: (i) to the extent applicable, with respect to a Participant who incurs a Separation from Service prior to December 31, 2008, pursuant
to the distribution election made by the Participant with respect to the Supplemental Benefits payable to him under the Grandfathered Plan, except that installments shall be paid at the time and in the manner described in this Section 8(a); or
(ii) in a single lump sum payment to be made on the first day of the month coincident with or next following his Termination of Employment (other than by reason of death). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall any
distribution commence to be made to any Participant who is a “Specified Employee” prior to a date that is six months after the date of such Participant’s Termination of Employment unless the termination is due to 

 
Disability or death. Any distribution which would have been made during such six-month period beginning with the date of the Participant’s Termination
of Employment, had the Participant not been a Specified Employee, shall be made on the six-month anniversary of such Specified Employee’s Termination of Employment. 
 (b) A Participant may change an existing distribution election regarding the time and form of payment of his Supplemental Account or Special RAP Contributions Account and make a new election from among the available
options set forth in Section 8(a) above by filing the prescribed form with the Committee at least one (1) year prior to the Participant’s Termination of Employment (“One Year Rule”); provided, however, that the foregoing
rule shall not apply to changes in distribution elections made by Participants prior to December 31, 2008. Effective for Supplemental Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2009, in addition to the One Year Rule, a change in a
distribution election shall not be given effect under the Plan unless (i) the new election is made at least 12 months prior to the date that the distribution would otherwise commence; (ii) the new election delays the commencement of the
distribution to the Participant by five years from the date that the distribution would otherwise have been made pursuant to the Participant’s initial election or any subsequent election, as the case may be; and (iii) the new election does
not become effective until 12 months after the date that it is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall any distribution commence to be made to any Participant who is a “Specified Employee” prior to a date that is
six months after the date of such Participant’s Termination of Employment unless the termination is due to Disability or death. Any distribution which would have been made during such six-month period beginning with the date of the
Participant’s Termination of Employment, had the Participant not been a Specified Employee, shall be made on the six-month anniversary of such Specified Employee’s Termination of Employment. 
 (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 8(d) below, a Participant shall have the right, in a writing filed with the Committee, to make an election,
prior to his Termination of Employment, to have the portion of his Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account that is payable at his death to be paid to his Beneficiary in a lump sum distribution or approximately equal annual
installments, over a period of 2 to 20 years as elected by the Participant. Each installment elected by the Participant shall equal the balance in the Participant’s Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contribution Account immediately prior to
the date of distribution, divided by the number of unpaid installments and shall be paid on the annual anniversary of the first installment, until all installments elected by the Participant have been paid. Each such distribution shall be paid or
commence on (i) the first day of the month coincident with or next following his death, (ii) the January 1 next following his death or (iii) the first day of the month coincident with or next following the first anniversary of
his death, as elected by the Participant. Such elections (or any election to revoke or change a prior election) must be made and filed with the Committee at least one year prior to the earlier of the Participant’s death or Termination of
Employment in order to be given effect under the Plan. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Section 8(c), in the event that a distribution election is not on file under the Plan for a Participant at the time of his death, the
Supplemental Account and Special RAP Contributions Account payable on behalf of 

 
such deceased Participant shall be paid to his Beneficiary in accordance with the Participant’s election under the Grandfathered Plan, if applicable,
except that installments shall be paid in the manner described in this Section 8(c), or, in a single lump sum on the first day of the month following the Participant’s death. 
 4. Except where otherwise expressly amended herein, the Plan is hereby ratified and confirmed and shall continue in full force and effect. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New York Stock Exchange LLC. has caused this Amendment to be
executed by the undersigned duly authorized officer on this 22nd day of December, 2008.
