Mr. Richard Lindahl
Chief Financial Officer
CEB Inc.

Dear Rich:

In recognition of your years of loyal service and contributions to CEB Inc. (“CEB” or the “Company”), as well as ensuring consistency of communication with the Board of Directors and capital markets participants and assisting in transition matters with the forthcoming change in the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, CEB will provide you the following payments and benefits.  For purposes hereof, the “Transition Period” commences on the date of this letter and continues until December 31, 2017 or, if later, the end of the second calendar quarter following when the new CEO commences employment (the “Transition Period”).

1.Compensation.  You will be eligible to receive an increase in your base salary effective April 1, 2017, and you will be eligible to receive a cash bonus for the 2016 performance year no later than March 15, 2017, subject to your performance against the applicable objectives as determined pursuant to standard CEB practice.  You will also be eligible to receive a restricted stock unit (RSU) grant in March 2017 in accordance with standard procedures.

2.Performance Bonus.  Your annual bonus for the 2017 performance year shall be no less than your target bonus.  Your target bonus, for the avoidance of doubt, is 100% of your base salary.  If the Transition Period continues into the 2018 performance year, your annual bonus for that performance year shall be no less than 100% of your target bonus on a prorated basis for any calendar quarters in 2018 that are included in the Transition Period. This payment is subject to your continued employment through the end of the Transition Period; provided that if the Company terminates your employment without Cause, you resign for Good Reason, or you die while an employee, you (or as applicable, your estate) shall receive such guaranteed minimum bonus payment subject to your execution of the Company’s standard form separation agreement and release (which will incorporate your Employer Protection Agreement and apply its restrictions as if you had voluntarily resigned).  For purposes hereof:

	
 
	
(i) 
	
“Cause” means your commission of a material act of fraud, theft or dishonesty against CEB; conviction of any felony; or willful non-performance of material duties that is not cured within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice to you from the Board of Directors.  

	
 
	
(ii) 
	
“Good Reason” means, without your written consent: (A) a material reduction in your duties, responsibilities or authority, (B) a reduction in your base salary or target annual incentive bonus opportunity, (C) you are required to relocate your place of employment to a location that is more than thirty-five (35) miles from the location of the Company's current headquarters, (D) your removal without Cause as Chief Financial Officer of CEB, or (E) a material breach of this letter agreement by the Company; provided that no such event shall be deemed to be a basis for your resignation for Good Reason unless, within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of such event, you deliver written notice to CEB stating that you believe that a basis for termination for Good Reason exists and specifying the event that you consider to constitute the basis for termination for Good Reason, and CEB shall not have remedied or cured such event within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such notice. 

 

 

Nothing herein provides you any right to continued employment with the Company, nor does anything herein preclude your continued employment beyond the Transition Period.  Rather, you will remain an “at-will” employee and your employment may be terminated by you or by the Company at any time with or without Cause.  For the avoidance of doubt, this letter agreement does not impact any rights you may have under any CEB change in control or severance plan or program applicable to you.

Thank you again for your loyal service to the Company and the critical role you will continue to play in our success.  If the terms and conditions of this letter are acceptable to you, please sign below and return a copy of the letter to me.

Sincerely, 

/s/ Thomas L. Monahan

Thomas L. Monahan III
Chief Executive Officer

ACCEPTED AND AGREED:

/s/ Richard S. Lindahl

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate set forth below (subject to adjustment as provided below).
Interest on the Notes shall accrue at the rate of 6.125% per annum and be payable in cash.
Interest shall be payable semi-annually in arrears (to the Holders of the Notes at the close of business on January 1 or July 1 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date, commencing January 15, 2017.
Interest on this Note shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from July 11, 2016. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.
The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate, in any case to the extent lawful.
Method of Payment.
The Company shall pay interest (except Defaulted Interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each January 15 and July 15 to the Persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Note Register at the close of business on January 1 and July 1 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the Note is transferred or exchanged after such Regular Record Date, except as provided in Section 306(b) with respect to Defaulted Interest; provided that, with respect to the payment of principal, the Company shall make payment to the Holder that surrenders this Note to any Paying Agent on or after July 15, 2021.
The Company shall pay principal (premium, if any) and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the Company may pay principal (premium, if any) and interest by its check payable in such money. The Company may pay interest on the Notes by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided that all payments of principal, (premium, if any) and interest and with respect to Notes represented by one or more permanent Global Notes registered in the name of or held by the Depository or its nominee shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder or Holders thereof.  If a payment date is a Legal Holiday, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day as if made on the date that the payment was due, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.
Paying Agent and Note Registrar.
Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association (the “Trustee”) shall act as Paying Agent and Note Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Note Registrar upon written notice thereto and without notice to the Holders. The Company may act as Paying Agent, Note Registrar or co-registrar.
Indenture.
The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of July 11, 2016 (the “Indenture”) among the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.
The Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company may issue Additional Notes.

Mandatory Redemption.
The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
Optional Redemption.
At any time prior to June 15, 2021, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Notes (or one or more Predecessor Notes) registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of this Indenture. Any such redemption shall be effected in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Indenture.
From and after June 15, 2021, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.
Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.
The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Note Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company shall not be required, and without the prior written consent of the Company, the Note Registrar shall not be required, to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note (i) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before provision of a notice of redemption of Notes and ending at the close of business on the day of such provision, (ii) selected for redemption in whole or in part and (iii) beginning at the opening of business on any record date and ending on the close of business on the related Interest Payment Date.
Persons Deemed Owners.
A registered Holder may be treated as the owner of a Note for all purposes.
Unclaimed Money.
Subject to applicable laws relating to abandoned property, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.
Defeasance Prior to Redemption or Maturity.
Subject to satisfaction of conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. Dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be. 

Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes issued under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and its consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be binding upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. The Indenture also permits the Company and the Trustee, without notice to or consent of the Holders of the Notes, to enter into one or more indentures supplemental thereto for the purposes specified in the Indenture.
Restrictive Covenants.
The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) liens; (ii) merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all assets; and (iii) dispositions of stock of a Principal Subsidiary Bank. Within 120 days (or the successor time period then in effect under the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act) after the end of each fiscal year, the Company must report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.
Successor Persons.
When a successor Person or other entity assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture, the predecessor Person shall be released from those obligations, subject to certain exceptions and conditions.
Remedies for Events of Default.
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of all the Notes, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to be due and payable immediately. At any time after the Notes have been accelerated, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration has been obtained, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes may, under certain circumstances provided in the Indenture, rescind and annul such acceleration.
Trustee Dealings with Company.
The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee; provided, however, that, if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue or resign.
Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.
Abbreviations.
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).
CUSIP and ISIN Numbers.
Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.
