		Re:	Administrative Support Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This
letter agreement by and between UTXO Acquisition Inc. (the “Company”) and UTXO Vector LLC (“UTXO Vector”),
dated as of the date hereof, will confirm our agreement that, commencing on the date the securities of the Company are first listed
on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Listing Date”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and prospectus
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”) and continuing until the earlier
of the consummation by the Company of an initial business combination or the Company’s liquidation (in each case as described
in the Registration Statement) (such earlier date hereinafter referred to as the “Termination Date”):

 

(i) UTXO
Vector shall make available, or cause to be made available, to the Company, at 203 N LaSalle ST, #2100, Chicago, IL 60601 (or
any subsequent location of UTXO Vector), certain office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support as may be
reasonably required by the Company. In exchange therefor, the Company shall pay UTXO Vector the sum of $5,000 per month on the
Listing Date and continuing monthly thereafter until the Termination Date; and

 

(ii) UTXO
Vector hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title, interest, causes of action and claims of any kind as a result of, or
arising out of, this letter agreement (each, a “Claim”) in or to, and any and all right to seek payment of any amounts
due to it out of, the trust account established for the benefit of the public stockholders of the Company and into which substantially
all of the proceeds of the Company’s initial public offering will be deposited (the “Trust Account”) as a result
of, or arising out of, this letter agreement, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim it may have in the future, which Claim would
reduce, encumber or otherwise adversely affect the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account, and further
agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction of any Claim against the Trust Account or any monies or other
assets in the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

 

This
letter agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of its subject matter and
supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent
they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

This
letter agreement may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed
by the parties hereto.

 

No
party hereto may assign either this letter agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior
written approval of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and
shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee.

 

This
letter agreement constitutes the entire relationship of the parties hereto, and any litigation between the parties (whether grounded
in contract, tort, statute, law or equity) shall be governed by, construed in accordance with, and interpreted pursuant to the
laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its choice of law principles.

TRANSITION AND SEPARATION AGREEMENT

 

This Transition and
Separation Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Charles A. Vice (“Employee”) and
Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (“ICE”, and
collectively with Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc., the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, Employee and
IntercontinentalExchange, Inc. entered an Employment Agreement dated as of February 24, 2012 (the “Employment Agreement”)
and the Company, for purposes of the Employment Agreement, is the successor-in-interest to IntercontinentalExchange, Inc.; and

 

WHEREAS, it has been
determined that Employee’s employment with the Company shall end; and

 

WHEREAS, Employee and
the Company wish to memorialize in writing the terms upon which the employment relationship is ending;

 

THEREFORE, Employee
and the Company agree as follows:

 

1.                 
Date of Separation. Employee’s employment with the Company and all affiliated companies shall end effective
as of February 28, 2022 (the “Separation Date”).

 

2.                 Transitional Employment Period. In exchange for Employee’s execution and non-revocation of this Agreement,
and Employee’s compliance with its terms and conditions, the Company and Employee agree to the following:

 

(a)              
The Company shall continue to employ Employee for a period from the Effective Date (defined in Section 17 below) to the
Separation Date (the “Employment Term”). Employee’s employment shall remain “at-will,” subject to
the terms of this Agreement and the Employment Agreement (as modified or amended herein), and a termination of Employee’s
employment (by either party) shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. In the event that Employee’s employment with
the Company terminates prior to the Separation Date for any reason, the Employment Term will end on Employee’s date of termination
and that date will be the Separation Date for all purposes of this Agreement.

 

(b)              
Employee shall be paid a 2019 performance year annual bonus on the date, expected to be in early February 2020, that annual
bonuses are generally paid to other employees of the Company (the “2019 Bonus”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that
during and after the Employment Term he shall not be entitled to any bonus compensation other than the 2019 Bonus (including, for
the avoidance of doubt, any annual performance bonus in relation to the performance years 2020-22), and Employee hereby waives
any and all rights to additional bonus compensation including as provided in Section 3.2 of the Employment Agreement. In the event
that the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) prior to February
28, 2022, then provided that Employee timely signs and does not revoke the Separation Waiver and Release appended to this Agreement,
(i) Employee will be entitled to (to the extent not yet paid) the 2019 Bonus; the equity treatment described in Section 4.2(a)(3)
of the Employment Agreement (including without limitation the accelerated vesting described therein); the right to elect continued
group health insurance coverage(s) pursuant to COBRA (to be partially subsidized by the Company through February 28, 2022) and
(ii) Employee will receive no other compensation, severance pay, separation entitlements or other termination benefits pursuant
to this Agreement, the Employment Agreement or otherwise.

 

     

     

    

 

(c)              
Employee’s previously granted equity awards shall continue to vest during the Employment Term in accordance with the
terms of the applicable equity incentive plan document and any applicable equity grant agreement(s). For the avoidance of doubt,
unless Employee is terminated for Cause, Employee’s vested stock options shall remain exercisable for 60 days following termination
of his employment. Employee acknowledges and agrees that during the Employment Term he shall not be entitled to the grant of, and
will not receive, any additional equity awards. Employee hereby waives any and all rights to additional equity awards including
as provided in Section 3.3 of the Employment Agreement; and Employee acknowledges that, as of the Separation Date, all unvested
portions of any previously granted equity awards shall be forfeited.

 

(d)              
Except as otherwise provided herein, during the Employment Term, Employee will continue to be entitled to participate in
Company employee benefit plans. Effective April 1, 2020, Employee’s base annual salary shall be $20,000. All compensation
paid to Employee, whether pursuant to this paragraph or otherwise, shall be subject to applicable tax withholdings and payroll
deductions.

 

(e)              
Employee Benefits Upon Separation. Employee shall be entitled to the following employee benefits upon separation
of employment regardless of whether Employee signs this Agreement:

 

(i)               Group Health Insurance Coverage. Upon employee’s separation from employment with the Company, in accordance
with the terms of the applicable plans, Employee may elect to continue group health insurance coverage(s) at Employee’s own
expense pursuant to COBRA and in accordance with the group health insurance plan. Additional information about continuation coverage
under COBRA will be provided to Employee separately.

 

(ii)             
Accrued Vacation. Employee shall be entitled to additional pay for accrued but unused vacation time (subject to company
policy and applicable law). The payment for accrued vacation shall be made in a lump sum, subject to all applicable tax withholdings,
in the first regular payroll period following Employee’s actual separation date (unless required by law to be paid earlier).

 

(iii)           
Long-term Incentive Compensation. Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, the term of exercise any stock
options, restricted stock units (“RSU’s”), or other forms of equity previously issued to Employee by the Company
shall be governed by the terms of the applicable equity incentive plan document and any applicable equity grant agreement(s).

 

(iv)             Qualified
Retirement Plan. Employee shall be eligible for distribution of any vested account balance under any qualified
retirement plan (such as a 401(k) plan) sponsored by the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions of applicable plan
documents.

 

(v)              Other
benefits. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein or as otherwise required by law, Employee shall cease to participate
in all employee benefits, plans, policies and practices provided by the Company.

3.                 
Continuing Performance. During the period of the Employment Term through March 31, 2020, Employee shall devote all
of Employee’s time and attention during usual business hours to the satisfactory performance of Employee’s pre-existing
duties for the Company in accordance with Section 2.2 of the Employment Agreement. Effective April 1, 2020: (a) Employee’s
title shall be Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer (reporting to the Chief Executive Officer); (b) Employee’s job responsibilities
shall be limited to providing advisory services on strategic, market and regulatory matters to one or more of the Chief Executive
Officer, the President of ICE, and/or their delegees; (c) Employee shall not be required to report to work at the Company’s
facilities, and shall perform such services as and when requested, upon reasonable notice to Employee, from remote locations by
email and/or telephone, or at the Company’s facilities or other locations; (d) Employee shall have regular access to the
Company’s corporate networks, systems, and facilities; (e) Employee shall not participate in or retain authority regarding
the management or operations of the Company; (f) Employee hereby resigns from (i) any position as an officer, director or trustee
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and (ii) any board to which Employee has been appointed or nominated on
behalf of the Company; and (g) Employee hereby surrenders all perquisites previously provided to Employee as a named executive
officer. During the entirety of the Employment Term, all policies generally applicable to Company employees shall be applicable
to and binding upon Employee. Nothing in this Agreement (including without limitation in this Section 3 or Section 2 above) shall
constitute an event of Good Reason (as such term is defined in Section 4.2(f) of the Employment Agreement), and Employee specifically
waives any and all rights under the Employment Agreement arising upon an event of Good Reason or a termination by the Company without
Cause (except as expressly provided in Section 2(b) above).

 

4.                 
Execution and Waiver. In exchange for Employee’s timely execution and non-revocation of this Agreement, and
timely execution and non-revocation of the appended Separation Waiver and Release on or within 7 days following the Separation
Date, the Company agrees to provide the benefits described above, including without limitation the offer of continued employment
through the Separation Date (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement). Employee waives any and all rights to any
compensation upon or relating to termination pursuant to the Employment Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any
compensation, equity vesting, or other benefits described in Section 4 of the Employment Agreement).

 

5.                 
Cooperation. As further consideration for the covenants set forth herein, Employee hereby agrees to cooperate fully
with any lawyer, law firm, or consultant that the Company designates with respect to any litigation, deposition, hearing, arbitration,
or other proceeding, in any jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, support of the Company’s, or that of any of its
affiliates’, position in defending any lawsuits or claims concerning which Employee has knowledge, or audits, investigations,
lawsuits, complaints or proceedings by government entities of state or federal law compliance) where the legal or financial interests
of the Company or any of its affiliates are at issue. Employee further covenants that, except with respect to an investigation
or proceeding conducted by a governmental entity, Employee will (i) contact the Company promptly in the event that Employee is
served with or notified in writing of any subpoena, notice or other instruction directing Employee to appear, or produce documents
or other information, in any legal proceeding involving the Company or any of its affiliates, and (ii) will make no such appearance
or disclosure, unless required by law, until the Company has had a reasonable opportunity to contest the right of the requesting
person or entity to such appearance or disclosure. The Company shall reimburse Employee for reasonable travel expenses and other
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel and other experts) associated with Employee’s compliance
with the obligations in this paragraph.

6.                 
General Release by the Employee.

 

(a)              
Release. Employee, on behalf of himself and Employee’s spouse, heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, insurers,
attorneys and other persons or entities, acting or purporting to act on Employee’s behalf (collectively, the “Employee
Parties”), does hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge the Company and its subsidiaries,
parent and sister companies, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, and the present and former directors, officers,
employees, partners, members, representatives, agents, shareholders, attorneys and insurers of any of them (collectively, the “Company
Parties”), from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, charges, obligations, rights, entitlements, liabilities,
debts, demands, allegations, contentions, damages, judgments, levies and executions of any kind (collectively, “Claims”),
whether in law or in equity, known, unknown or unforeseen, vested or contingent, which the Employee Parties have or may have against
the Company Parties, including all Claims by reason of, arising out of, related to, or resulting from Employee’s employment
with the Company or the termination thereof, existing as of the Effective Date.

 

(b)              Specific
Types of Claims Included in Release. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to and shall
release the Company Parties from any and all Claims, whether known, unknown or unforeseen, vested or contingent, which the Employee
Parties ever had, now have, or may have against the Company Parties arising out of Employee’s employment and/or separation
from employment, including, but not limited to: (i) any Claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights
Act of 1991, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (excluding Claims for accrued,
vested benefits under any employee benefit or pension plan of the Company Parties subject to the terms and conditions of such
plan and applicable law), the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Worker Adjustment Retraining and
Notification Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”);
(ii) any other Claim (whether based on any federal, state, or local law, statutory or decisional, or regulation) relating to or
arising out of Employee’s employment, the terms and conditions of such employment, the termination of such employment, and/or
any of the events relating directly or indirectly to or surrounding the termination of that employment, including but not limited
to breach of contract (express or implied), tort and other common law Claims, wrongful discharge, retaliation, detrimental reliance,
defamation, libel, slander, emotional distress or compensatory or punitive damages; and (iii) any Claim for attorneys’ fees,
costs, disbursements and/or the like. With respect to unknown Claims, Employee expressly waives (and understands the significance
of doing so) all rights Employee might have under any law that is intended to protect Employee from waiving such Claims.

 

(c)              
Exceptions to Release. The foregoing release does not release or impair: (i) the Company’s promises
and obligations under this Agreement; (ii) any rights Employee has under any grants of stock options, restricted stock, or other
forms of equity that may have been provided to Employee during his/her employment (such grants to be governed by the applicable
equity plan and grant agreement(s)); (iii) any rights Employee has under applicable workers compensation laws; (iv) any vested
rights under a qualified retirement plan; (v) any other Claims that cannot lawfully be released; (vi) Employee’s ability

execution of this Agreement; (viii) any rights to insurance benefits under any Directors & Officers liability insurance policy
maintained by the Company; or (ix) any indemnification rights or rights to the advancement of expenses which Employee may have
(in the absence of this Agreement and independent of the Employment Agreement) as an employee, officer or director of the Company
under applicable law or in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or under any contractual arrangements
concerning such indemnification or rights or clauses governing the Company’s insurance policies or applicable law.

7.                 
Representations by Employee.

 

(a)              Employee
represents and warrants to the Company Parties that Employee has read this Agreement and fully understands the effect hereof,
that Employee executes this Agreement of Employee’s own free will and accord for the consideration set forth herein, which
he is not already entitled to receive, and that Employee is not relying on any representations whatsoever of the Company, other
than those set forth herein, as an inducement to enter into this Agreement.

 

(b)              Employee
further represents and warrants to the Company Parties that no litigation or other proceeding has been filed or is pending by
the Employee Parties against the Company Parties; that no person or entity other than Employee has or has had any interest in
the matters released herein; that Employee has the sole right, capacity, and exclusive authority to execute this Agreement; and
that Employee has not sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of any of the Claims released herein.

 

(c)              Employee
represents that Employee has had the opportunity to discuss this Agreement with an attorney, and Employee has been advised by
the Company to do so if Employee so desires. Employee covenants and agrees that Employee has been given at least 21 days to contemplate
the terms of this Agreement before executing it, and that if Employee chooses to execute it in fewer than 21 days, Employee does
so voluntarily and of Employee’s own free will and volition.

 

8.                 
Attorneys’ Fees. In any subsequent litigation or other proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement or
the appended Separation Waiver and Release, whether initiated by Employee or the Company, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, expert witness fees and costs, and court costs, from the other party.

 

9.                 
Restrictive Covenants.

 

(a)              Nondisparagement.
Employee will not make any statements that are derogatory or disparaging towards any of the Company Parties. For the purposes
of this Agreement, the term “disparage” includes, without limitation, comments or statements made in any manner or
medium (including, without limitation, to the press and/or media, the Company Parties or any individual or entity) which would
adversely affect in any manner (i) the conduct of the business of any of the Company Parties (including, without limitation, any
Company Party’s business plans or prospects) or (ii) the business reputation of any Company Party. This paragraph shall
not prohibit Employee from (A) filing a charge with, or participating in any investigation conducted by, a governmental agency,
(B) testifying truthfully in response to a subpoena or other court rule or order, or (C) in good faith making any statement (1)
in order to comply with any legal duty, (2) in furtherance of lawful commerce (that is not in breach of subsection (c) below),
(3) to defend against reputational harm from any statement that disparages Employee that is made after the execution of this Agreement,
(4) to defend against or prosecute any legal claim, or (5) in response to an investigation by a regulatory or law enforcement
agency. The Company agrees that, in response to any inquiries concerning Employee’s employment, the inquiring party will
be referred to Mr. Doug Foley, SVP, HR & Administration (or his successor/designee), who will state that it is the Company’s
policy to only provide, and the Company will only provide, Employee’s dates of employment and last position held. Nothing
in this paragraph shall restrict the Company’s ability to provide complete information with respect to Employee’s
employment when required to do so by law and/or applicable regulatory requirements.

 

    Page 5 of 9

     

    

 

(b)              Return
of Property. As of the Separation Date, Employee shall turn over to Mr. Foley (or his designee) (i) any and all Property of
the Company, as such term is defined in Section 5.1 of the Employment Agreement, and (ii) all other data and information, regardless
of form, in any way pertaining to the Company’s business, employees or customers (and Employee will not retain any such
information or any reproduction or excerpt thereof).

 

(c)              Employment
Agreement Covenants. The covenants contained in Sections 5 and 6 of the Employment Agreement, including without limitation
the arbitration, confidentiality and other post-employment obligations described therein, are incorporated by reference into this
Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect during the Employment Term and following the Separation Date; provided,
however, that the covenants described in Section 5.5 of the Employment Agreement (Nonsolicitation of Customers or Employees) and
the covenant described in Section 5.7 of the Employment Agreement (Non-Compete) each shall apply in full force and effect to the
one-year period following the Separation Date. Employee hereby acknowledges Employee’s understanding of all the terms of,
and the reasonableness of, such covenants and reaffirms Employee’s obligations thereunder. Employee further acknowledges
that Employee’s obligations under such covenants shall be in addition to Employee’s obligations under the covenants
contained in this Section 9; provided, however, that to the extent a discrepancy exists between any such provisions and this Agreement,
the terms of this Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, Employee may
not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that
is made: (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney,
and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) in a complaint or other document
that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding and does not disclose the trade
secret, except pursuant to court order.

 

(d)              Remedies.
The parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 9 are reasonable and appropriate for the protection of
the Company’s legitimate business interests, and that they will not unduly impair Employee’s ability to find other
employment. Employee acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of a violation of one or more of Employee’s covenants in
this Section 9, in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy to which the Company may be entitled, the Company may be permitted
to seek and obtain immediate injunctive relief, restraining further breach by Employee, in a court of competent jurisdiction,
and without the necessity for posting of a bond or other security (and accordingly, if no bond is posted, without the protection
of a bond’s limitation on wrongful injunction liability). In addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy to which the
Company may be entitled, no further payments or benefits of any kind that would otherwise inure to Employee pursuant to this Agreement
shall accrue or be owed, and any future payments and benefits hereunder shall be forfeited, immediately upon Employee’s
breach of any of the covenants in this Section 9.

 

    Page 6 of 9

     

    

 

10.               No
Admission of Liability. This Agreement shall not be construed as an admission of liability by the Company, or an
admission that the Company has acted in any way wrongfully towards Employee. The parties specifically deny and disclaim
any such liability or wrongful conduct.

 

11.             
Taxation and Withholding; 409A Compliance.

 

(a)              Employee
acknowledges that payments and benefits hereunder may be taxable and that the Company makes no representation or warranty regarding
the income tax effects of any payment or benefit provided hereunder. Employee shall be solely responsible for any tax liability
with respect to all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under
this Agreement such federal, state or local taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

 

(b)              If a payment date that complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the official guidance
thereunder (“Section 409A”) is not otherwise provided herein for any payment (in cash or in-kind) or reimbursement
that would otherwise constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, then such payment or reimbursement, to
the extent such payment or reimbursement becomes due hereunder, shall in all events be made not later than 21⁄2 months after
the end of the later of the fiscal year or the calendar year in which the payment or reimbursement is no longer subject to a substantial
risk of forfeiture.

 

(c)              It is the intention of both Employee and the Company that the benefits and rights to which Employee is entitled pursuant
to this Agreement are exempt from or comply with Section 409A, to the extent that the requirements of Section 409A are applicable
thereto, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention. If Employee or the
Company believe, at any time, that any such benefit or right that is subject to Section 409A does not so comply, Employee or the
Company shall promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and
rights such that they comply with Section 409A (with the most limited possible economic effect on Employee and the Company).

 

(d)              Notwithstanding
any time of payment otherwise designated in this Agreement, if on Employee’s “separation from service” as defined
in Section 409A Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, to the extent required by Section
409A any amounts payable to Employee by reason of Employee’s “separation from service” with the Company will
not be paid to Employee until the date that is 6 months and one day following Employee’s separation from service.

12.             
Severability. In the event any portion or clause of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable in a court
of law, the remainder of the Agreement shall be severed from the invalid or unenforceable portion.

 

13.             
Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (including to the extent this Agreement
incorporates by reference provisions of the Employment Agreement and any continuing post-employment obligations therein), any prior
agreement (whether written or oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement is null and void,
as this Agreement expresses the entire agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter. This Agreement may only be
modified in writing signed by both parties.

 

14.             
Assignment. This Agreement shall accrue to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns, and shall be
freely assignable to any entity with which the Company may merge or otherwise combine, or to which the Company may transfer substantial
assets. This Agreement is personal to Employee and may not be assigned by Employee.

 

15.             
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Georgia.

 

16.             
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, including those transmitted by electronic means, each
of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same document.

17.             
Effective Date. Employee may accept this Agreement by signing it and returning it to Mr. Foley no later than 21 days
after Employee has received it, or this offer will be deemed revoked. After executing this Agreement, Employee shall have seven
(7) days (the “Revocation Period”) to revoke it by indicating Employee’s desire to do so in writing delivered
to the Company contact by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the seventh (7th) day after the date Employee signs this Agreement. The effective
date of this Agreement shall be the eighth (8th) day after Employee signs it (the “Effective Date”). If the last day
of the Revocation Period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the last day of the Revocation Period will be deemed to be the

during the Revocation Period, this Agreement, including but not limited to the obligation of the Company to provide Employee with
the payments and benefits described above, shall be deemed automatically null and void.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
parties have executed this Agreement effective on the Effective Date.

I, Charles A. Vice, in exchange for good
and valuable consideration as set forth more fully in the Transition and Separation Agreement between me and Intercontinental Exchange
Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (“ICE”, and collectively with Intercontinental
Exchange Holdings, Inc., the “Company”), dated January 21, 2020 (the “Transition Agreement”), the
receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, for myself and on behalf of my spouse, heirs, executors, administrators,
assigns, insurers, attorneys and other persons or entities, acting or purporting to act on my behalf (collectively, the “Releasors”),
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company and its subsidiaries, parent and sister companies,
affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, and the present and former directors, officers, employees, partners, members,
representatives, agents, shareholders, attorneys and insurers of any of them (collectively, the “Releasees”)
from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, charges, obligations, rights, entitlements, liabilities, debts, demands,
allegations, contentions, damages, judgments, levies and executions of any kind (collectively, “Claims”), whether in
law or in equity, known, unknown or unforeseen, vested or contingent, which any of the Releasors have or may have against the Releasees,
including all Claims by reason of, arising out of, related to, or resulting from my employment with the Company or the termination
thereof, including, without limitation, Claims under any federal, state, local or foreign law; breach of contract; fraud or misrepresentation;
intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress; breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing; promissory estoppel;
negligence; wrongful termination of employment; or unlawful employment practices. This includes, without limitation, a release
to the fullest extent permitted by law of all rights and claims arising on or before the date I sign this Separation Waiver and
Release, involving Claims under (i) Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans with
Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (excluding Claims for accrued, vested benefits under any

tort and other common law Claims, wrongful discharge, retaliation, detrimental reliance, defamation, libel, slander, emotional
distress or compensatory or punitive damages; and (iii) any Claim for attorneys’ fees, costs, disbursements and/or the like.
With respect to unknown claims, I expressly waive (and understand the significance of doing so) all rights I might have under any
law that is intended to protect me from waiving such claims.

 

The foregoing release does not release
or impair: (a) the Company’s promises and obligations under the Transition Agreement; (b) any rights under any grants of
stock options, restricted stock, or other forms of equity that may have been provided to me during my employment (such grants to
be governed by the applicable equity plan and grant agreement(s)); (c) any rights under applicable workers compensation laws; (d)
any vested rights under a qualified retirement plan; (e) any other Claims that cannot lawfully be released; (f) my ability to respond
truthfully to a valid subpoena issued by, file a charge with, or participate in any investigation conducted by, a governmental
agency; (g) any Claims arising for actions or omissions occurring, and any ADEA Claims that may arise, after the date of my execution
of this Agreement; (h) any rights to insurance benefits under any Directors & Officers liability insurance policy maintained
by the Company; or (i) any indemnification rights or rights to the advancement of expenses which he may have (in the absence of
this Agreement and independent of the Employment Agreement) as an employee, officer or director of the Company under applicable
law or in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or under any contractual arrangements concerning
such indemnification or rights or clauses governing the Company’s insurance policies or applicable law.
