 -14- 

 
accordance with the respective terms and subject to the respective conditions thereof, the Assumed Liabilities to be assumed at such Closing. The Sellers
shall pay all Cure Amounts in respect of the Assumed Contracts and Assumed IP Licenses and shall bear all Transfer Taxes related to the Sellers’ sale of the Acquired Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Contracts and Assumed IP Licenses.
After any Closing, Buyer shall be entitled to exercise all rights attached or accruing to the Acquired Assets purchased at such Closing, including the right to receive all dividends, distributions or any return of capital declared, paid or made by
any of the Purchased Entities in respect of the Securities on or after the relevant Closing Date. 
 Section 2.2 Assets and
Liabilities. 
 (a) Acquired Assets. For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquired Assets” means,
subject to Section 2.3, (i) all of the assets, properties, rights, agreements and other interests of the Sellers (other than Contracts and Excluded Assets, but including the Securities), whether tangible or intangible, wherever located,
that are used, useful or held for use in, primarily related to, material to or necessary for the operation or conduct of the Business by the Sellers, including those set forth on Schedule 2.2(a), as the same shall exist on the applicable
Closing Date, and (ii) each Contract set forth on Exhibit 1 to Schedule 2.2(a). For the avoidance of doubt, if any Acquired Asset is not sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred or delivered to Buyer or its designees on the Initial
Closing Date, whether pursuant to Section 2.3 or otherwise, such Acquired Asset shall be sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred or delivered as the same shall exist on the Subsequent Closing Date applicable to such Acquired Asset or, in the case
of an Acquired Asset that is a Contract, as promptly as possible in accordance with the procedures for assumption and assignment of Contracts set forth in the Sale Order; provided, that with respect to any Acquired Asset that is subject to a
right of first refusal or other option to purchase that predates the Cases and does not constitute a Lien of which the Acquired Assets may be sold free and clear pursuant to the Sale Order under applicable law, and provided such right or option is
exercised, then the Acquired Assets shall include, in lieu of such Acquired Asset, all proceeds of the sale of any such Acquired Asset and such proceeds shall be conveyed to the Buyer as promptly as possible. 
 (b) Excluded Assets. The Subject Entities and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall not purchase, acquire or accept
from the Sellers, any of the rights properties, agreements or assets set forth in Schedule 2.2(b) as it may be revised from time to time pursuant to Section 2.3 (such rights, properties, agreements and assets being referred to herein,
collectively, as the “Excluded Assets”). 
 (c) Assumed Liabilities. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Assumed Liabilities” means (i) all Liabilities of the Sellers that are required to be performed, and that accrue, on or after the applicable Closing Date under the Assumed Contracts and Assumed IP Licenses (but excluding any
Liabilities of the Sellers in respect of a breach by any Seller of or default by any Seller under such Assumed Contracts or Assumed IP Licenses prior to the applicable Closing Date), to the extent such Assumed Contracts and Assumed IP Licenses, and
all rights of the Sellers thereunder, are effectively assigned to Buyer at such Closing, (ii) Liabilities for accrued vacation, sick time and time-off with respect to any Transferred Employee, as set forth in Section 8.17(c), and

 -15- 

 
commodity accounts”) of CFTC Form 1-FR-FCM (and comparable liabilities on the comparable form with respect to any foreign regulated FCM) with respect to
any Customer Accounts that are conveyed to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) Assumed Liabilities shall not include any Excluded Liabilities, and (2) Buyer shall not be responsible for any Liabilities
resulting from the ownership, use, operation or maintenance of the Acquired Assets, or the conduct of the Business by the Sellers, prior to the Closing. 
 (d) Excluded Liabilities. The Subject Entities and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall not accept, assume, agree to pay, perform or otherwise discharge or satisfy or be liable for any Excluded
Liabilities. 
 Section 2.3 Option to Modify the Asset and Liability Schedules. From and after the date hereof until 60 days
after the Initial Closing Date (and solely in respect of Transition Leases, until the termination of the Buyer Transition Services Agreement), Buyer may by written notice to the Sellers amend or modify any of the Asset and Liability Schedules to
include in or exclude from each Asset and Liability Schedule additional assets or additional Liabilities relating to the Business; provided, that in no event will Buyer have the right to amend Schedule 2.2(b) to remove any item
included in Part I of such Schedule 2.2(b); provided, further that no Asset and Liability Schedule may be amended to exclude an asset (other than assets constituting “plant, property and equipment”) that was purchased at any
Closing (or subsequently) or to exclude any liability that was assumed at any Closing or subsequently. For the avoidance of doubt, all Customer Accounts shall be Acquired Assets. The parties agree that the Purchase Price shall not be increased,
reduced or otherwise amended on account of any election under this Section 2.3, it being understood and agreed that the Purchase Price entitles Buyer to accept and assume or reject such assets or liabilities of the Sellers as Buyer may in its
sole discretion determine, other than the assets and liabilities set forth on Part I of Schedule 2.2(b). Buyer agrees that, provided that the conditions precedent to its obligation to close have been satisfied or waived (other than, with
respect to the London Business, the receipt of all required Regulatory Consents), it shall at its election (solely as to London, the “London Election”) either (a) acquire all of the Acquired Assets (including all Leases) and
assume the Assumed Liabilities associated with such Acquired Assets (other than Excluded Liabilities) with respect to the London Business and the Business in Canada and shall be responsible for all severance and termination costs associated with
such Acquired Assets, or (b) pay the Take-or-Pay Fee with respect to such region, as set forth in Section 10.3; provided, that Buyer shall, by notice to the Parent, make the London Election no later than the date that is four weeks
from the date hereof; provided, further, that if Buyer elects option (a) above with respect to the London Business and notifies the Parent of its intent that an entity other than Buyer or its Affiliates shall be Buyer’s
designee for receipt of the Acquired Assets relating to such business, then Buyer’s obligation to close on the London Business shall be tolled until (and the Drop Dead Date as to the London Business shall become) the date that is 90 days from
the date hereof. Once any such Acquired Asset has been acquired or liability assumed, that asset or liability cannot be transferred or otherwise conveyed back to Sellers. 
 Section 2.4 Assignment of Contracts and Licenses. 
 (a) Subject to the applicable
provisions of the Sale Order and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, as soon as possible (but in no event prior to the Initial Closing Date) after any Contract (including any IP License) is listed on Exhibit 1 to Schedule
2.2(a) (as 

  

 -16- 

 
revised from time to time pursuant to Section 2.3), (i) the Sellers that are Debtors shall assume and assign to Buyer or its designees, and Buyer
or its designees shall take assignment of, all of each such Seller’s title, right and interest in and to each such Assumed Contract, free and clear of any and all Liens and Excluded Liabilities, and (ii) the Sellers that are not Debtors
shall assign to Buyer or its designees, and Buyer or its designees shall take assignment of, all of each such Seller’s title, right and interest in and to each such Assumed Contract, free and clear of any and all Liens and Excluded Liabilities.

 (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement
to assign any Assumed Contract or Assumed IP License if pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code (if applicable) or other applicable law, an assignment thereof requires the consent of a third party thereto and such consent is not obtained
at or prior to the applicable Closing, in which case the provisions of Sections 2.7, 8.4 and 8.5(a) shall apply; provided, that (x) this sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect the terms of Section 5.5, and (y) the Sellers
shall provide to Buyer, by whatever measures are necessary, the equivalent of the entire benefit Buyer would have realized from the assignment of such Assumed Contract or Assumed IP License to Buyer.

 (d) Subject to Section 3.2, prior to or on the Initial Closing Date, Buyer shall deposit into the Escrow Account an amount equal to (i) 25% of the Adjusted Purchase Price, minus (ii) the Deposit.

 Section 3.2 Subsequent Closings. In the event that the Acquired Assets are sold in more than one Closing (i.e., there

shall be equitably determined in accordance with the guidelines set forth in Schedule 3.2 and shall be paid on the applicable Closing Date, in each case 75% direct to the Sellers in cash as above and 25% into the Escrow Account as above.

preceding the Closing Date on which the assets of the Company are to be transferred, net of any transfers of deposits pending or in process (the “Reference Segregated Account Balance”) is less than $1,750,000,000, the Purchase Price
shall be decreased by an amount equal to (a) $1,750,000,000 minus the Reference Segregated Account Balance, divided by (b) $1,750,000,000, multiplied by (c) the Purchase Price (such amount the “Segregated Account

report, the “Closing Report”), together with a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation as of such Closing Date of the Segregated Account Balance and a determination of the amount
of the Adjusted Purchase Price. Buyer will prepare the Closing Report and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) in accordance with Section 3.5(e). In the event Buyer shall fail to deliver the Closing Report and
the Closing Statement within such 30-day period, the Purchase Price Adjustment Certificate will be treated as the Closing Statement for purposes of Section 3.1 or 3.2, as applicable. 
 (b) During the 20-day period immediately following the Company’s receipt of the Closing Report and the Closing Statement, the Company
and its representatives (i) will be permitted to review, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, the applicable successor’s books and records and the working papers related to the preparation of the Closing Report and the
Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein), and (ii) will be given reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to knowledgeable employees and accounting professionals of Buyer in order to
facilitate the Company’s review of the Closing Report and the Closing Statement; provided, however, that the review and access described in clauses (i) and (ii) will be conducted at times and in a manner that does not
unreasonably interfere with the operation of Buyer’s or any of its Affiliates’ businesses. The Closing Report and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) will become final, binding and conclusive upon Buyer
and the Sellers (a) on the 20th day following the Company’s receipt thereof, unless Buyer receives from the Company prior to such 20th day, written notice of the Sellers’ disagreement (a “Dispute Notice”) with any
account or determination set forth in the Closing Report or the Closing Statement or (b) on such earlier date as the Company notifies Buyer that it does not dispute the Closing Report and Closing Statement. Any Dispute Notice will specify in
reasonable detail the nature and dollar amount of any disagreement so asserted (collectively, the “Disputed Items”). Any account or determination set forth or reflected on the Closing Report or the Closing Statement that is not
specifically objected to in the Dispute Notice will be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Buyer and the Sellers upon delivery of the Dispute Notice. If Company timely delivers a Dispute Notice, then the determination of the Adjusted Purchase
Price (in accordance with the resolution described in clause (x) or (y) below, as applicable) will become final, binding and conclusive upon Buyer and the Sellers on the first to occur of (x) the date on which Buyer and the Company
resolve in writing all differences they have with respect to the Disputed Items or (y) the date on which all of the Disputed Items that are not resolved by the Buyer and the Company in writing are finally resolved in writing by the Independent
Accountants in accordance with Section 3.5(c). 
  

 -21- 

 (c) During the 15 days following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Buyer and the Company will
seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences which they have with respect to all of the Disputed Items. Any Disputed Item resolved in writing by Buyer and Company will be deemed final, binding and conclusive on Buyer and the Sellers. If
Buyer and Company do not reach agreement on all of the Disputed Items during such 15-day period (or such longer period as they shall mutually agree), then at the end of such 15-day (or longer) period Buyer and Company will submit all unresolved
Disputed Items (collectively, the “Unresolved Items”) to one of the “big four” nationally recognized firms of independent certified public accountants with a nationwide audit and accounting practice as Buyer and Company
may mutually agree (the “Independent Accountants”) to review and resolve such matters. The Independent Accountants will determine each Unresolved Item (the amount of which may not be more favorable to Buyer than the related amount
reflected in the Closing Statement nor more favorable to the Sellers than the related amount set forth in the Dispute Notice) in accordance with Section 3.5(e) as promptly as may be reasonably practicable, and Buyer and Company will instruct
the Independent Accountants to endeavor to complete such process within a period of no more than 15 days. The Independent Accountants may conduct such proceedings as the Independent Accountants believe, in their sole discretion, will assist in the
determination of the Unresolved Items; provided, however, that, except as Buyer and Company may otherwise agree, all communications between Buyer, Company and the Sellers or any of their respective representatives, on the one hand, and
the Independent Accountants, on the other hand, will be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party. The Independent Accountants’ determination of the Unresolved Items will be final, binding and conclusive on
Buyer and the Sellers, effective as of the date the Independent Accountants’ written determination is received by Buyer and Company. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants will be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half jointly by
the Sellers, and each of Buyer and the Sellers will bear its own legal, accounting and other fees and expenses of participating in such dispute resolution procedure. 
 (d) Upon final determination of the Adjusted Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.5(b) or (c) (the “Final Purchase
Price”), an adjustment to the Purchase Price will be determined and paid as follows: 
 (i) If the Estimated Purchase
Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, the Sellers (or their respective successors and assigns, including any post-consummation trusts formed to administer claims against the Debtors’ estate) shall within five (5) Business Days of the
determination of the Final Purchase Price pay to Buyer the amount of such excess by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Buyer. Seller’s obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence shall constitute
superpriority administrative claims and shall be secured by liens having the priority contemplated by Section 11.2 of this Agreement. 
 (ii) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the Final Purchase Price pay the amount of such excess by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, 75% to the Sellers and 25% to the Escrow Account, as above. 
 (e) For the purposes of this
Section 3.5, each accounting term used herein will have the meaning that is applied thereto in accordance with Regulatory Accounting Standards and, to the extent consistent with Regulatory Accounting Standards, the accounting principles,
policies, procedures and methodologies applied in preparing the Latest Regulatory Statements. 
  

 -22- 

 
Each account included in the Closing Statement and the Closing Report will be consistent with the books and records of the Broker Entities and the
definitions herein agreed; provided, that in no event shall any Excluded Liability be included on the Closing Report.

and shall procure that their Affiliates shall cooperate fully in surrendering to the Purchased Entities all group relief and consortium relief amounts, up to the amount for which the Sellers would otherwise be liable or which has been agreed to be
surrendered, that such Purchased Entities are entitled to claim in accordance with the ICTA.

 Section 8.17 Employees. 
 (a) Buyer has delivered to Parent a schedule setting forth those categories of individuals whom Buyer has designated as continuing
employees of the Business (the “Business Employees”). On and as of the applicable Closing Date, employees of Refco Canada, Refco Singapore and the London Business who are employed in the Business shall also be Business Employees.
The parties hereto intend that there will be continuity of employment for all Business Employees following the applicable Closing Date. In order to effectuate such transfer of employment as of such Closing Date, except as otherwise provided herein,
Buyer shall make a general offer of employment through a general notice of transfer to each Business Employee who 

  

 -44- 

 
is not an employee of a Purchased Entity (each an “Offer Employee”). Such general offer of employment will be deemed accepted by each Offer
Employee unless (i) expressly rejected by the Offer Employee prior to the Closing Date or (ii) the Offer Employee otherwise indicates by his or her actions that such offer of employment has not been accepted (each Offer Employee who acts
under (i) or (ii), a “Non-Acceptance Offer Employee”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Transferred Employee” shall mean each Offer Employee other than a Non-Acceptance Offer Employee; provided that, in
the case of Offer Employees on short term disability or other approved leaves of absence, such employees must commence service with Buyer prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date to become Transferred Employees. Any Business Employee
who does not commence employment with Buyer as described above shall not be treated as a Transferred Employee. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.17, all Transferred Employees will cease to accrue benefits under and cease to
participate as active participants in all Employee Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date and the Purchased Entities shall withdraw as participating employers from each Employee Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date. The parties will cooperate to comply
with legal and regulatory requirements to accomplish the employment transfers described in this Section 8.17, including without limitation any requirements for Parent to terminate the employment of any Business Employee and for Buyer to make a
specific employment offer to such Business Employees, and Parent will transfer any work permits or passes applicable to the Business Employees. 
 (b) For the one year period following the Closing, Buyer shall provide to Transferred Employees compensation’ and employee benefits comparable, in the aggregate, to the compensation and employee benefits provided
by Sellers (or their Affiliates, as the case may be) to Transferred Employees as of immediately prior to the Closing. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.17 or under the terms of any employee benefit plans of Buyer providing benefits
to Transferred Employees (the “Buyer Benefit Plans”) or applicable Law, Buyer shall be entitled to modify, amend, suspend, terminate or supplement any Buyer Benefit Plans in its sole discretion. 
 (c) The Buyer Benefit Plans shall credit such Transferred Employees (and their dependents) for any deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses
paid under the applicable Employee Benefit Plans in the year of initial participation in the applicable Buyer Benefit Plans that are group health plans (within the meaning of Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code). Buyer shall provide each Transferred
Employee with credit for the same number of vacation and sickness benefit days he or she has accrued but not used in the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, provided, that, to the extent required by law, such amount shall be paid by Buyer in
cash. 
 (d) Buyer shall permit each Transferred Employee who is a participant in the Refco Group, Ltd. Employee Savings Plan
(the “Seller 40l(k) Plan”), and who elects to transfer his or her account balance under the Seller 401(k) Plan, to roll over his or her account balance (including any outstanding loans thereunder) to the Man Group USA Inc Savings
and Investment Plan (the “Buyer Qualified Plan”), as soon as practicable following the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Buyer Qualified Plan. Parent agrees to use and to cause the Purchased Entities and the Sellers
to use their best efforts to cooperate with Buyer, its agents and designees to ensure a smooth transfer of accounts, records and recordkeeping to effect the transfers described in the previous sentence. Parent further agrees to take and to cause the
Sellers and Purchased Entities to take such actions as are necessary, including securing the cooperation of the recordkeeper, trustee and other service providers of Seller 401 (k) Plan, to effect such transfers. 
  

 -45- 

 (e) Buyer will pay and provide to Transferred Employees whose employment terminates on or
within twelve months after the Closing severance benefits under conditions and in amounts that are no less favorable to the employee than those provided to Transferred Employees as of immediately prior to the Closing under Parent’s (or
Parent’s Affiliate’s) severance policies; provided, that such amounts shall be without duplication of any severance payments required to be made by applicable law. Solely for purposes of determining eligibility, vesting and benefit
accruals under the Buyer severance plans (and not for any other purpose), Buyer shall credit each Transferred Employee with his or her years of service with the Sellers and their respective Affiliates, and any predecessor entities, to the same
extent as such Transferred Employee was entitled to credit for such service under any similar Employee Benefit Plan prior to the Transferred Employee’s commencement of participation in the Buyer Benefit Plan, except that Transferred Employees
shall receive no such credit to the extent that such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. 
 (f) Parent shall
retain or assume liability for all claims under any welfare benefit plan (“Welfare Plan”) as such term is defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA sponsored or maintained by Parent or any of its Affiliates which are incurred by any
Transferred Employees prior to or on the date that such Transferred Employee becomes a Transferred Employee and any other current or former employee of Parent (and covered dependents and COBRA beneficiaries). Buyer shall assume liability for all
claims under Welfare Plans which are incurred by Transferred Employees (and their covered dependents and COBRA beneficiaries) after that date. For purposes of this paragraph, the following welfare benefit claims shall be deemed to be incurred as
follows: (a) life, accidental death and dismemberment and business travel accident insurance benefits, upon the death or accident giving rise to such benefits; (b) health, dental and/or prescription drug benefits (included in health
benefits), upon the provision of services, materials or supplies relating to such claim; and (c) short-term disability and long-term disability benefits, upon the date on which an individual becomes disabled under the applicable disability
plan. 
 Section 8.18 Non-Compete and Wind Down. The Subject Entities agree that following the final Closing Date until the fifth
anniversary of the final Closing Date, except as required to provide services to Buyer or its designee under the Transition Services Agreement, the Subject Entities shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to (i) directly or
indirectly, operate, perform, control or engage in, manage or own a greater than 5% ownership in a business or Person that conducts any activities in competition with the Business, (ii) solicit, raid or knowingly entice, encourage or induce any
Person that currently or at any time prior to or during the five year non-competition period is or was a client or customer (or is actively pursued as a potential client or customer) of any portion of the Business for activities which are the same
as or competitive with the operation of the Business, (iii) interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt, any relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Business or Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries and any of their respective clients
or customers, or (iv) cause or authorize any third party controlled by the Sellers to take any of the action described above. In addition, promptly after the Initial Closing, the Subject Entities, upon the request of Buyer, shall take all
actions reasonably necessary to cause the Sellers’ businesses (other than those businesses constituting Excluded Assets) to cease operations and wind down, including by terminating any and all Permits or IP Licenses other than those which are
or may still become Assumed Contracts or Assumed IP Licenses pursuant to Section 2.3. 
  

 -46- 

 Section 8.19 Additional Sellers. Parent shall cause each of its Affiliates owning any
Acquired Asset to execute a joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, as a “Seller” hereunder and to have all of the obligations and rights of a Seller hereunder as if such entity had executed this
Agreement on the date hereof. 
 Section 8.20 Operations. Parent and the Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective
Subsidiaries to, take all actions necessary to continue the operation and performance in a manner consistent with past practice of the data processing, information technology, risk analysis and other operations currently conducted by the Sellers,
including operations conducted at Sellers’ office located in Memphis, Tennessee. 
 Section 8.21 Agent for Excepted
Accounts. From and after the Initial Closing, Buyer shall serve as the agent of the Sellers for purposes of administering the Excepted Accounts acquired by Buyer, which will include resolving, closing, liquidating, transferring or otherwise
disposing of the Excepted Accounts and collecting and remitting within three (3) days after collection (subject to the terms of this Section 8.21) to the appropriate Sellers all amounts owed by customers in respect thereof in excess of
amounts required to close out such accounts with no loss. All risk and benefit with respect to the Excepted Accounts shall be and remain for the account of the Sellers and Sellers shall pay (or reimburse to Buyer as a superpriority administrative
claim and lien) all reasonable out of pocket expenses (but not a fee for agency services provided) associated with the administration by Buyer of the Excepted Accounts (including, without limitation, the expenses of counsel, it being understood and
agreed that Buyer shall have not bring suit, in its own name or the name of any Seller, in conjunction with the collection or liquidation of any Excepted Account and Seller shall have the right to bring such suit, but only in its own name.). Buyer
shall not settle or compromise any claim against any customer without the consent of the applicable Seller. In its capacity as administrative agent for the Sellers, Buyer shall take such steps, not inconsistent with the foregoing, as Parent or the
applicable Seller may instruct from time to time; provided, (i) that such instruction shall not be in contravention of any applicable law, regulation or other order, directive or request of the CFTC, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Monetary
Authority of Singapore or other applicable governmental or non-governmental authority or any interpretation thereof; (ii) that Sellers acknowledge that Buyer may transfer any Excepted Account and the rights and obligations of Buyer in respect
thereof, including Buyer’s interest in the applicable portion of the Excepted Account Escrow, to an appropriate third party selected by Buyer which has assumed the obligations of Buyer hereunder with respect to such account, with Parent’s
or the applicable Seller’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; and (iii) that Buyer acknowledges that Sellers may direct Buyer to transfer any Excepted Account and the rights and obligations of Buyer in respect thereof
to an appropriate third party which has assumed the obligations of Buyer hereunder with respect to such account, without any requirement of Buyer consent to such transfer. In connection with any transfer under either clause (ii) or
(iii) of the preceding sentence, the Excepted Account Escrow balance applicable to the account so transferred shall be released to (a) the transferee, in the case of a transfer under clause (ii), or (b) the applicable Seller, in the
case of a transfer under clause (iii), but in each case solely to the extent that Buyer shall be released of any liability with respect to such account upon such 

  

 -47- 

 
transfer. On or prior to the Initial Closing Date, the applicable Sellers shall establish a separate escrow account (the “Excepted Account
Escrow”) into which account such Sellers shall deposit and in which account such Sellers shall at all times maintain liquid funds equal to at least the sum of (x) to the extent such amounts have not previously been deposited in the
applicable Customer Accounts, the aggregate deficit of all Deficit Accounts that are Excepted Accounts, as calculated in accordance with the daily segregated funds computation as of the close of business on the day of determination, it being agreed
that Sellers shall not take any action outside the ordinary course of business to withdraw assets from Customer Accounts in contemplation of Closing, (y) to the extent such amounts have not previously been deposited in the applicable Customer
Accounts, the aggregate margin necessary to render all Undermargined Accounts that are Excepted Accounts no longer Undermargined Accounts, such margin amount to be determined by reference to applicable exchange minimums as in effect from time to
time and (z) $12,000,000. Buyer shall have the right to direct the application of funds from the Excepted Account Escrow to such Excepted Accounts to cover any additional deficit or under-margin amounts in accordance with exchange minimums in
effect from time to time or to satisfy any indemnity liability of the Sellers to Buyer in respect of the Excepted Accounts (notwithstanding any other limitation herein with respect to the source of funds for the Sellers’ indemnity obligations).
The $12,000,000 additional escrow will be remitted back to Seller in the proportion of collected Excepted Accounts to total Excepted Accounts (line 9A, CFTC Form-IFR-FCM) as of the Closing Date. Any dispute with respect to the Excepted Accounts
and/or any instruction given pursuant to this Section 8.21 shall be subject to resolution by the Bankruptcy Court. Buyer and the Sellers agree that it is their shared intention that the Excepted Accounts be collected, liquidated or otherwise
resolved in a prompt and prudent manner, taking into account the likelihood that any deficit or under-margin circumstance will be resolved by the client in a timely manner in the ordinary course of business. 
 Section 8.22 Personally Identifiable Information. Buyer shall adopt the Debtors’ privacy policies with respect to personally
identifiable information (as such term is defined in section 101(41A) of the Bankruptcy Code) of the Debtors’ customers whose Customer Accounts are conveyed to Buyer.

notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which any such termination is made, this Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect, and there shall be no

with respect to the London Business unless the applicable Regulatory Consents have been received. In no event shall Buyer or any of its Affiliates or representatives have any Liability to Parent, the Sellers or their respective Affiliates or any
other Person hereunder in excess of the applicable Seller Liquidated Damages, and any claim, right or cause of action (including any claim, right or cause of action for willful breach of this Agreement) by Parent, the Sellers or their respective
Affiliates or any other Person against Buyer or its Affiliates or representatives in excess of the Seller Liquidated Damages is hereby fully waived, released and forever discharged. In no event shall Buyer or its Affiliates have any Liability to
Parent, the Sellers or their respective Affiliates or any other Person for any special, consequential or punitive damages, and any such claim, right or cause of action for any damages that are special, consequential or punitive for the specific

 ARTICLE XI 
 INDEMNIFICATION 
 Section 11.1
Survival. 
 (a) The respective representations and warranties of the parties contained herein and in any other
agreement, certificate, instrument or other document delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing (or, in the case of any Acquired Assets acquired following the Closing Date, the Subsequent Closing Date) until a date 12 months from the
Closing Date (and, in the case of any Acquired Assets acquired following the Closing Date, 12 months following the Subsequent Closing Date on which such asset was acquired); provided, that representations and warranties contained in Sections
5.2, 5.9, 5.13, 5.14 and Article I shall survive until the earlier of 60 days after the lapse of the applicable statute of limitations and the effective date of the plan of reorganization of the Debtors. No Claim may be asserted nor may any
action be commenced against the Sellers pursuant to Section 11.2(a) unless written notice of such action is received by Parent on or prior to the date on which the representation or warranty is based ceases to survive 

  

 -55- 

 
as set forth in the prior sentence (it being agreed and understood that if a claim for a breach of representation or warranty is timely made, the
representation or warranty shall, solely for purposes of such claim, survive until the date on which such claim is finally liquidated or otherwise resolved). No other Claim with respect to the representations and warranties may be asserted nor may
any action be commenced against the Sellers pursuant to Section 11.2 unless written notice of such action is received by Parent on or prior to the relevant date described above. 
 (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, the respective covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement, or in any Related Documents
shall survive the Closing indefinitely. 
 Section 11.2 Indemnification of Buyer by the Sellers. 
 (a) On and after the Closing Date, and notwithstanding any disclosure in this Agreement or Buyer’s knowledge thereof or otherwise,
the Sellers and their respective successors and assigns, including, but not limited to, any pre- or post-consummation trusts formed to administer claims against the Debtors’ estate, shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, save, hold harmless,
discharge and release each of the Buyer Indemnitees from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, causes of actions, losses (including, for avoidance of doubt, loss of profits), costs, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses
incurred or paid, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including such fees which are incurred in connection with a dispute of the provisions of this Agreement), fines, penalties, costs of investigation or settlement, other professionals’
and experts’ fees, and court or arbitration costs (but specifically excluding punitive damages and exemplary damages except to the extent (i) such damages specifically excluded herein are included and awarded to a third party or
(ii) such damages are incurred as a result of fraud) (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Damages”), to the extent such Damages are determined to have arisen out of or to have resulted from, in connection with, or by
virtue of (a) any facts or circumstances that constitute an inaccuracy, misrepresentation, breach of, default in, or failure to perform, any of the representations, warranties or covenants given or made by the Purchased Entities or the Sellers
in this Agreement or in any of the certificates or other instruments or documents furnished by or on behalf of the Purchased Entities or the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement at or prior to the Closing Date, including the covenant of the Sellers to
deliver the Acquired Assets in consideration of the Purchase Price; provided, that for purposes of determining whether there has been any Company Breach (as defined), any knowledge qualification shall be disregarded, (b) any inaccuracy,
error or omission in any of the books of account and other financial records of the Purchased Entities and the Sellers, (c) any legal, regulatory, investigative or similar proceedings relating to any pre-closing action, activity, occurrence,
fact or event, (d) any Liability (i) arising from or attributable to the actions, failure to act, or profit or performance of or by a Person other than a Purchased Entity for which a Purchased Entity may otherwise be joint and severally
liable under applicable common or statutory law or regulation, including applicable tax or environmental law, and (ii) for which any Purchased Entity is secondarily liable as a guarantor or surety to the extent Parent or any Affiliate of Parent
is primarily liable for such Liability, (e) any Excluded Liabilities and (f) any Liability arising from or attributable to the Excepted Accounts, the agreements governing such Excepted Accounts or the customers with respect thereto other
than any Liability arising from misconduct of Buyer (collectively, “Company Breaches”). All payments under this Article XI 

  

 -56- 

 
shall be treated for Tax purposes as adjustments to the Final Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, neither Parent nor the Sellers shall have any indemnification obligations hereunder to any Buyer Indemnitee unless and until the total amount of Damages for all Claims for which Buyer Indemnitees are indemnified hereunder exceeds $1,000,000.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Escrow Amount is the sole source of funding for any Claims for indemnification for the Buyer Indemnitees and under no circumstances shall any Buyer Indemnitees be entitled to be indemnified to the extent the
Damages exceed the Escrow Amount, except to the extent such Damages (other than punitive damages) are incurred as a result of fraud in connection with or willful breach of this agreement. Buyer’s Indemnitees are hereby granted a superpriority
lien pursuant to Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code on all assets of the Debtors, as well as a superpriority administrative claim against the estates of the Debtors, which superpriority lien and superpriority claim shall (except as
hereinafter provided) be senior and prior to all liens created on property of the Debtors after the date hereof and all expenses of administration of the Debtors under Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, that
such superpriority liens and claims shall be subject and subordinate to (i) all valid and perfected Liens existing on the date of commencement of the Cases and the claims secured thereby, as well as any Liens and claims provided as adequate
protection therefor, including, without limitation, the Liens and claims of the Debtor’s pre-petition lending group and (ii) any post-petition financing providing new funds to the Debtors; provided, further, that if the Sale
Order of the Company provides that Buyer’s indemnities are granted a super-priority lien pursuant to section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code on all of the assets of the Company, as well as a super-priority administrative claim against the estate
of the Company, which lien and claim shall not be junior to any lien or claim against the Company, then the aggregate amount of Buyer’s indemnities over and above the Escrow Amount shall be limited to the sum of (x) the Purchase Price, to
the extent paid, (y) the $58,000,0000 sum of the Take or Pay Fees provided for in Section 10.3 and (z) an additional $100,000,000 estimate of the aggregate amount of absolute and contingent Assumed Liabilities (it being understood
that Sellers shall have the right to seek a further determination from the Bankruptcy Court as to the actual amount of such Assumed Liabilities, which shall be used instead of such estimate for this purpose if such actual amount is determined by the
Court to be less than such estimate). For avoidance of doubt, any superpriority granted pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be without prejudice to the priority of the prepetition liens and claims of the prepetition lenders to the Parent in
respect of their borrowers, their guarantors or the properties of the respective estates of their borrowers or guarantors, as set forth in the proviso to the second sentence of paragraph 26 of the Sale Order entered in the Case of the Parent.

 (b) Damages in respect of any breach or violation of this Agreement shall be determined and computed in accordance with
ordinary principles of contract law as applied in the courts of the State of New York. 
 Section 11.3 Notice of Claim.

 (a) As used herein, the term “Claim” means a claim for indemnification by Buyer or any other Buyer
Indemnitee for Damages under this Article XI. Any Buyer Indemnitee may give notice of a Claim under this Agreement, whether for its own Damages or for Damages incurred by any other Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to written notice of such Claim
executed by Buyer (a “Notice of Claim”) and delivered to the Sellers (such receiving party, the “Indemnitor”), after such Buyer Indemnitee becomes aware of the existence of any potential claim for indemnification
under this Section 11.3 arising out of or resulting from any item indemnified pursuant to the terms of Section 11.2. 
  

 -57- 

 (b) No delay on the part of any Buyer Indemnitee in giving a Notice of Claim shall limit
or reduce such Person’s right to indemnity hereunder, or relieve the Indemnitor from any of its obligations under this Section 11.3, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnitor is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

 Section 11.4 Resolution of Notice of Claim. Each Notice of Claim given by any Buyer Indemnitee shall be resolved as follows:

 (a) Admitted Claims. If, within 20 Business Days after a Notice of Claim is delivered to the Indemnitor, the
Indemnitor agrees in writing that liability for such Claim is indemnified under Article XI the full amount of the Damages specified in the Notice of Claim is agreed to, and that such Notice of Claim is timely, the Indemnitor shall be
conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Buyer Indemnitee of the full amount of Damages specified in the Notice of Claim in accordance with this Section 11.4(a). 
 (b) Contested Claims. If the Indemnitor does not agree in writing to such Notice of Claim or gives the Buyer Indemnitee written
notice contesting all or any portion of a Notice of Claim (a “Contested Claim”) within the 20 Business Day period specified in Section 11.4(a), then such Contested Claim shall be resolved by either (i) a written settlement
agreement executed by Buyer and Parent or (ii) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement, all Claims shall be resolved by the Bankruptcy Court as a section 101(5) claim against the Debtors’ estates or a court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 (c) Manner of Payment. If a Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to the recovery of Damages pursuant to any
Claim that is agreed to pursuant to Section 11.4(a), or a Contested Claim that is resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Sellers and their respective successors and assigns, including, but not limited to, any post-consummation
trusts formed to administer claims against the Debtors’ estate, shall pay the amount of Damages arising out of or resulting from each such Claim as so determined to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated
in writing by Buyer, or, if applicable, such amounts shall be released by the escrow agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer.

	3.	SERVICES—SCOPE, STANDARDS, FORM AND CHANGES 

  

	3.1	Services Scope and Location

and conditions of this Agreement.

	3.2	Service Levels and Standards 

  

	 	3.2.1	Subject to clause 3.2.3, the Services will be provided in accordance with the applicable Service Levels or, if no Service Levels apply to a Service, to the same standard, quality
and extent to which that Service has ordinarily been provided by MGP to the relevant MF Global Affiliate during the 12 months prior to the Effective Date. 

  

	 	3.2.2	MGP will provide the Services with the same skill and care employed by it in the 12 months prior to the Effective Date in respect of the provision of those Services to the relevant
MF Global Affiliate, and in compliance with the laws and regulations that apply to it as a provider (not a recipient) of the Services. 

  

	 	3.2.3	Where the Services consist of services which were not previously provided by MGP in the ordinary course of its business, those Services shall be provided with reasonable skill and

 The Services will
only be provided, and may only be used, for the benefit of the Business and for no other purpose. However, if MF Global expands or changes its Business activities, or diversifies beyond or narrows the scope of the Business, after the Effective Date

endeavours to obtain that consent at MGP’s cost.

and/or services made available to MGP in the provision of Services to a Service Recipient, MGP will be relieved from providing the Services to the extent that it is not able to do so as a result of the third party refusal to provide consent.

continue to apply to those data and documents to the extent that such data and documents relate to MF Global). 

  

	 	5.2.2	MGP will provide MF Global with reasonable assistance and access to MGP’s personnel and systems used in the provision of the Services (to the extent permissible, in the case of
third party systems and generally with regard to MGP’s business and confidentiality constraints) to allow MF Global to plan its exit from this Agreement. To the extent that such assistance will require MGP to incur any additional costs or
expenses, it will only be required to comply with this term to the extent that MF Global agrees to reimburse such costs and expenses to the extent that they are reasonable. 

  

	 	5.2.3	Other than as provided under this clause 5, MGP will only be required to provide assistance to MF Global in relation to the exit from this Agreement if it has agreed to provide such
assistance in writing and on such terms as it may prescribe at the time of agreeing the same (which may include without limitation reimbursement of its costs and expenses). For the avoidance of doubt, MGP will not be required to comply with any
actions allocated to it in an exit plan prepared by MF Global unless it has agreed in writing to them. 

  

	6.	MF GLOBAL REQUIREMENTS AND MGP RELIEF 

  

	6.1	MF Global Requirements 

 MF Global will, and will
procure that its relevant Affiliates will, do each of the following (each an "MF Global Requirement"): 
  

	 	6.1.1	fulfil its specific requirements in connection with the Services as set out in the Services Schedule; 

  

 - 10 - 

	 	6.1.2	on reasonable notice, give MGP or its agents reasonable access to facilities, systems, premises and/or staff of MF Global (or of the relevant Affiliate); and

  

	 	6.1.3	promptly provide MGP or its agent with sufficient information and assistance reasonably required to enable MGP to perform its obligations under this Agreement (including copies of
documents and data), all in a timely manner to enable MGP to provide the Services in accordance with this Agreement and to comply with its legal and regulatory obligations. 

  

	6.2	MGP Relief 

  

	 	6.2.1	MGP will not be liable for any failure to provide the Services to the extent that the failure is caused by a failure by MF Global (or the relevant MF Global Affiliate) to comply in
a timely manner with any of the MF Global Requirements (including any failure to do so which is excused by the force majeure provisions of this Agreement). 

  

	 	6.2.2	Subject to the terms of this Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, MGP will not be relieved from providing the Services where MF Global (or the relevant MF Global Affiliate)
complies with all relevant MF Global Requirements in a timely manner. 

  

	7.	FEES AND VAT 

  

	7.1	Fees and costs 

  

	 	7.1.1	MF Global will pay MGP the relevant Fees on a monthly or other basis for the provision of the Services, as set out more fully in the Services Schedule. 

  

	 	7.1.2	All Fees shall be invoiced in arrears on a monthly or other basis (in accordance with the Services Schedule) and shall be payable within 30 days from the date of the invoice. For
the avoidance of doubt, MGP may include recoverable costs and expenses incurred in a previous month in an invoice relating to a future month (without double-counting). 

  

	7.2	Late Payment 

 Late payments of Fees will attract
additional interest payments of 2% per annum above the then-current base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc per month, accruing from the first business day following the day on which payment is due until the date of actual payment. 

 

	7.3	VAT 

  

	 	7.3.1	All sums set out in this Agreement or otherwise payable by any party to any other party pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on
the supply or supplies for which such sums (or any part thereof) are the whole or part of the consideration for VAT purposes. 

  

	 	7.3.2	 Where, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any party (or any Affiliate of any party) (the "Supplier") makes a supply to any other party (or any
Affiliate 

  

 - 11 - 

	 	 
of any party) (the "Recipient") for VAT purposes and VAT is or becomes chargeable on such supply (being VAT for which the Supplier is required to
account to any relevant Tax Authority), the Recipient shall, subject to the receipt of a valid VAT invoice in respect of such supply, pay to the Supplier (in addition to any at the same time as any other consideration for such supply) a sum equal to
the amount of such VAT. 

  

	 	7.3.3	References in this Agreement to any cost or expense incurred by any party and in respect of which such party is to be reimbursed or indemnified by any other party under the terms of
this Agreement, or the amount of which is to be taken into account in any calculation or computation set out in this Agreement, shall include such part of such cost or expense as represents any VAT but only to the extent that such first party is not
entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from any relevant Tax Authority. 

  

	8.	CONTRACT MANAGEMENT 

  

	 	8.1	The parties will each appoint the person indicated as its "Primary Recipient" in clause 18.3 (Notices) as its contract manager ("Contract Manager") who, as of
the date of this Agreement, will be responsible for all matters in relation to this Agreement on the behalf of that party. A Contract Manager may be replaced by the party appointing it. Each party must provide written notice of any change in a
Contract Manager to the other party no later than the date of such change. 

  

	 	8.2	The parties will ensure that the Contract Managers will meet at least once a month to discuss any matters relating to this Agreement and to monitor progress of MF Global’s exit
planning. 

  

	 	8.3	Each party’s Contract Manager will be authorised to make decisions for that party and such decisions will be binding on that party. 

  

	9.	TERMINATION 

  

	9.1	Termination by MF Global for convenience 

  

	 	9.1.1	MF Global may terminate any and all Service(s), whether for a block of telephony users (as defined in the Services Schedule) or all telephony users, for convenience at any time,
subject to 30 days’ notice. 

  

	 	9.1.2	 MGP will on receipt of such a notice inform MF Global as soon as may be practicable, but no later than 10 business days after the receipt of such notice, of the
effect that the termination of the relevant Service will have on the remainder of this Agreement (which may include, without limitation, the inability to provide any of the other Services or changes in the Fees). Any costs or changes in the Fees
determined by MGP to be payable by MF Global for the early termination of this Agreement under this clause 9.1 are to be reasonably substantiated by reference to calculations and objective data. Where MF Global terminates a Service in respect of a
block of telephony users (as defined in the Services Schedule) of 75 or more in number, then no additional charges will 

  

 - 12 - 

	 	 
apply, and the relevant monthly Fees will be adjusted for the month following such termination. 

  

	 	9.1.3	MGP and MF Global agree to each use commercially reasonable endeavours to minimise the impact of any termination of a Service on the remainder of this Agreement.

  

	 	9.1.4	If MF Global accepts the effects of the termination of a Service on this Agreement as identified by MGP in its notice to MF Global, this Agreement will be amended and terminated in
accordance with that notice. If MF Global rejects, or does not accept, such effects of the termination of a Service in writing (which must be notified within 5 business days after the date of the notice from MGP), MF Global will be deemed to have
withdrawn its notice of termination of the relevant Service, and the terms of this Agreement shall continue in effect. 

  

	9.2	Termination by MF Global for cause 

 MF Global may
terminate the entire Agreement immediately in its entirety in respect of all the Services or any part of the Services (at its determination): 
  

	 	9.2.1	for a material breach by MGP which is not capable of being remedied or, in the case of a material breach capable of being remedied, if such material breach has not been remedied
within 30 days from the date of written notice requiring it to do so; 

  

	 	9.2.2	for insolvency of MGP; or 

  

	 	9.2.3	if MF Global is required to terminate this Agreement by law or regulatory requirement (including where MF Global’s lead financial services regulator requires the same).

  

	9.3	Termination by MGP for cause 

 MGP may terminate
this Agreement immediately in its entirety in respect of all the Services or any part of the Services (at its determination): 
  

	 	9.3.1	for a material breach by MF Global which is not capable of being remedied or, in the case of a material breach capable of being remedied, if such material breach has not been
remedied within 30 days from the date of written notice requiring it to do so; 

  

	 	9.3.2	for insolvency of MF Global; or 

  

	 	9.3.3	if MGP is required to terminate this Agreement by law or regulatory requirement (including where MGP’s lead financial services regulator requires the same).

  

	9.4	Termination by MGP for change in control of MF Global 

  

	 	9.4.1	 MGP may terminate the entire Agreement by giving MF Global at least 30 days’ notice if a third party (excluding MGP or any of its Affiliates) acquires Control

  

 - 13 - 

	 	 
of MF Global (whether directly or indirectly) at any time following the IPO. For clarity, the IPO itself will not be considered an acquisition of Control for
the purposes of this clause. 

  

	 	9.4.2	MGP’s right under this clause 9.4 must be exercised within 30 days of any such acquisition of Control coming to MGP’s attention, following which such right will lapse
automatically and irrevocably. 

  

	10.	CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION 

  

	10.1	Obligations on termination 

 On termination of this
Agreement for any reason: 
  

	 	10.1.1	MGP will stop providing the Services (or in the case of the termination of particular Services only, those Services); 

  

	 	10.1.2	MF Global will pay all sums which at the date of termination are due and payable to MGP (pro rated where necessary); and 

  

	 	10.1.3	the parties shall promptly return any Confidential Information (including data and software) of the other party or its Affiliates to its owner (or with the prior written agreement
of the owner of the Confidential Information delete or destroy it). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may retain a reasonable number of copies of the other party’s Confidential Information for its own internal, regulatory compliance or
legal purposes, for as long as is necessary for those purposes, and the obligations of confidentiality set out in this Agreement shall continue to apply to the same. 

  

	10.2	Data Access following termination 

 MGP agrees, for
a period of 5 years from the date of this Agreement, to the extent that MGP and/or any of its Affiliates will retain data or business information of MF Global or any of its Affiliates, to provide MF Global with reasonable access (including the right
to take copies) during normal business hours, to such data or business information, subject to the following: 
  

	 	10.2.1	MF Global gives MGP reasonable notice of such request; 

  

	 	10.2.2	MF Global reimburses MGP for its reasonable costs in providing such access; and 

  

	 	10.2.3	MGP will use reasonable endeavours to provide the relevant data/information as soon as reasonably practicable. 

  

	10.3	Survival of terms 

 Any term of this Agreement
which is expressed or by its nature intended to survive termination of this Agreement, including terms governing liability of the parties, termination consequences of this Agreement, confidentiality, governing law and dispute resolution, and the
interpretation of this Agreement, shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
  

 - 14 - 

	10.4	TUPE rights and obligations 

  

	 	10.4.1	If: 

  

	 	(a)	any employee of MGP asserts or establishes that he or she has become employed by MF Global, any MF Global Affiliate or any replacement provider of the Services (a
"Transferee"), as a result of the termination of this Agreement or the termination of a particular Service or part thereof, and 

  

	 	(b)	the Transferee does not wish to employ such person, 

 then the Transferee shall within 5 business days of becoming aware of such assertion notify MGP in writing that it does not wish to employ such person (the "Affected Employee") and MGP shall be given the opportunity (but shall not be
obliged) to offer the Affected Employee re-employment with MGP. If the Transferee fails to notify MGP in writing within this time period then that person will be treated as if he or she had always been an employee of the Transferee. 
  

	 	10.4.2	If the Affected Employee accepts an offer made by MGP pursuant to this clause 10.4, the Transferee will immediately release that person from his or her employment and waive any
notice period or restrictive covenants under his or her employment contract with the Transferee. 

  
  

	 	10.4.3	If, within 5 business days of being notified in accordance with this clause 10.4, MGP has not made an offer or an offer has been made but, within 5 business days of the offer being
made, it has not been accepted: 

  

	 	(a)	the Transferee will be entitled within a further 20 business day period to terminate the employment of the Affected Employee by following the statutory dismissal procedure; and

  

	 	(b)	MGP will indemnify MF Global for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by MF Global or the relevant MF Global Affiliate arising under or in connection with such termination of
the Affected Employee’s contract of employment. 

  

	 	10.4.4	If the Transferee continues the employment of the Affected Employee beyond the relevant 20 business day period described in clause 10.4.3 then that person will be treated as if he
or she had always been an employee of the Transferee. 

  

	11.	CHANGE CONTROL PROCEDURE 

  

	11.1	Valid Changes 

 Except to the extent otherwise
provided for in this Agreement, all changes to this Agreement, including changes to the Services or the functionality included in any Service (having regard to the standards and requirements referred to in clause 3 (Services) and the services
