Level 1.
 
 | 
 
Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market (examples include active exchange-traded equity securities and exchange-traded money market mutual funds).
 
 | 
| 
 
Level 2.
 
 | 
 
Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:
 
 | 
| 
 
a)
 
 | 
 
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
 
 | 
| 
 
b)
 
 | 
 
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets (examples include corporate and municipal bonds, which trade infrequently);
 
 | 
| 
 
c)
 
 | 
 
Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability (examples include most over-the-counter derivatives, including interest rate and currency swaps); and
 
 | 
| 
 
d)
 
 | 
 
Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full asset or liability (for example, certain mortgage loans).
 
 | 
| 
 
Level 3.
 
 | 
 
Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices, or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

In April 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom (the "FCA") commenced a civil competition investigation into the aviation insurance and reinsurance sector. In connection with that investigation, the FCA carried out an on-site inspection at the London offices of Marsh Limited, our Marsh and Guy Carpenter operating subsidiary in the United Kingdom, and JLT Specialty Ltd., JLT's U.K. operating subsidiary. The FCA indicated that it had reasonable grounds for suspecting that Marsh Limited, JLT Specialty Ltd. and other participants in the market had been sharing competitively sensitive information within the aviation insurance and reinsurance broking sector.
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
In 2017, JLT identified payments to a third-party introducer that had been directed to unapproved bank accounts. These payments related to reinsurance placements made on behalf of an Ecuadorian state-owned insurer. In early 2018, JLT voluntarily reported this matter to law enforcement authorities. In February and March 2020, money laundering charges were filed in the United States against a former employee of JLT, the principals of the third-party introducer and a former official of the state-owned insurer. We are cooperating with the ongoing investigations.

Controls & Procedures.
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
in our Risk and Insurance Services segment, a reduction in pricing and commission for specific lines of coverage most directly affected by the pandemic;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
in our Consulting segment, a reduction of demand for our services as clients cut back on expenses, as well as the impact on our business model for delivering services to clients due to restrictions on travel and movement, and guidance around social distancing;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
the timeliness and ultimate collectability of our receivables, including as a result of deferrals of premium payments directed by government authorities, which affects our ability to generate sufficient cash flows;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
the impact of disruption in the credit or financial markets, or changes to our credit ratings, which may impact our ability to access capital or repay our significant outstanding indebtedness on favorable terms and our compliance with the covenants contained in the agreements that govern our indebtedness;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
an increase in errors & omissions claims related to pandemic coverage;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
the impact of financial market volatility, including our ability to execute timely trades in light of increased trading volume, which may reduce assets under management and revenue for Mercer’s Investments business;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
failure of third parties upon which we rely to meet their obligations to us, or significant disruptions in their ability to meet those obligations in a timely manner, which may be caused by their own financial or operational difficulties;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
the impact of an extended period of remote work arrangements on our business continuity plans, and our ability to continue to provide services to our clients;
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
increased risk of phishing and other cybersecurity attacks or unauthorized dissemination of personal, confidential, proprietary or sensitive data caused by remote work arrangements; and
 
 | 
| 
 
•
 
 | 
 
the potential effects on our internal controls including those over financial reporting as a result of changes in working environments such as shelter-in-place and similar orders that are applicable to our team members and business partners.

Executive understands and acknowledges that as a senior executive of the Company and a member of Marsh & McLennan Companies’ Executive Committee, Executive will learn or have access to, or may assist in the development of, highly confidential and sensitive information and trade secrets about the Company, its operations and its clients, and that providing its clients with appropriate assurances that their confidences will be protected is crucial to the Company’s ability to obtain clients, maintain good client relations, and conform to contractual obligations. Such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets include but are not limited to: (i) financial and business information relating to the Company, such as information with respect to costs, commissions, fees, profits, sales, markets, mailing lists, strategies and plans for future business, new business, product or other development, potential acquisitions or divestitures, and new marketing ideas; (ii) product and technical information relating to the Company, such as product concepts and structures, new and innovative product ideas, methods, procedures, devices, machines, equipment, data processing programs, software, software codes, computer models, and research and development projects; (iii) client information, such as the identity of the Company’s clients, the names of representatives of the Company’s clients responsible for entering into contracts with the Company, the amounts paid by such clients to the Company, specific client needs and requirements, specific client characteristics related to the provision of services by the Company, client consulting needs and information about the consulting services provided or planned by the Company to serve such clients, client insurance policy information, information regarding the markets or sources with which insurance is placed,

Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company is engaged in highly competitive businesses and that its competitive position depends upon its ability to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets which were developed, compiled and acquired by the Company at its effort and expense and through the use of the Company’s resources. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that any disclosing, divulging, revealing, or using of any of the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, other than in connection with the Company’s business or as specifically authorized by the Company, will be highly detrimental to the Company and cause it to suffer serious loss of business and pecuniary damage and loss of goodwill. 
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
At all times prior to and following Executive’s termination of employment, Executive shall not disclose to anyone or make use of any Confidential Information and Trade Secrets of the Company, including such trade secret or proprietary or confidential information of any client, prospective client or other entity to which the Company owes an obligation not to disclose such information, which Executive acquires during Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company, including but not limited to records kept in the ordinary course of business except: (i) as such disclosure or use may be required or appropriate in connection with Executive’s work as an employee of Marsh or the Company; (ii) when required to do so by a court of law, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Company or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction to order Executive to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information (but only to the extent required by such requirement or order); or (iii) as to such confidential information that becomes generally known to the public or trade without violation of this Agreement by Executive or by others under a duty of confidentiality to the Company.

Immediately upon the termination of employment with Marsh or the Company for any reason, or at any time the Company so requests, Executive will return to the Company: (i) any

5.

Executive agrees to assign and hereby does assign to the Company all Executive’s present and future right, title and interest in and to any intellectual property conceived, discovered, reduced to practice and/or made by Executive during the period of time that Executive is employed by the Marsh or Company (whether before, on or after the date of this Agreement), whether such intellectual property was conceived, discovered and/or reduced to practice and/or made by Executive solely or jointly with others, on or off the premises of the Company’s business, or during or after working hours, if such intellectual property: (i) was conceived, discovered, reduced to practice and/or made with the Company’s facilities, equipment, supplies, confidential information, trade secrets or intellectual property; or (ii) relates to the Company’s current, or demonstrably anticipated or potential business activities, work or research; or (iii) results from work done or to be done by Executive or under Executive’s direction, alone or jointly, for the Company (“Intellectual Property”). Executive further acknowledges and agrees that such Intellectual Property as referred to herein belongs to the Company and that the Company may, in its sole discretion, keep such Intellectual Property and/or processes pertaining thereto, whether patentable or copyrightable or not, as trade secrets and make all decisions regarding whether and how to use such Intellectual Property and/or processes. Executive further agrees not to use or seek any commercial exploitation of or otherwise use any Intellectual Property transferred to the Company or required to be assigned under this Agreement for personal use.
 
 | 
| 
 
6. 
 
 | 
 
Executive acknowledges, agrees and intends that all copyrightable works Executive creates during the period of time that Executive is employed by Marsh or the Company (whether before, on or after the date of this Agreement) and within the scope of Executive’s employment shall be considered to be “works made for hire” as defined under the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (or as defined under any UK act or legislation having such effect) (“Copyrightable Works”). Executive also acknowledges, agrees and intends that the Company will be deemed the author of all such works made for hire and the owner of all of the rights comprised in the copyright of such works. To the extent that 
 
 | 
| 
 
7. 
 
 | 
 
Executive agrees to: (i) promptly disclose such Intellectual Property and Copyrightable Works to the Company; (ii) assign to the Company, without additional compensation, the entire rights to Intellectual Property and Copyrightable Works for the United States and all foreign countries; (iii) execute all documents, certifications, and all other papers and do all acts necessary to carry out the above, including enabling the Company to file and prosecute applications for, acquire, ascertain and enforce in all countries, letters patent, trademark registrations and/or copyrights covering or otherwise relating to Intellectual Property and Copyrightable Works and to enable the Company to protect its proprietary interests therein; and (iv) give testimony in any action or proceeding to enforce rights in the Intellectual Property and Copyrightable Works. In the event the Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to secure Executive’s signature on any document needed in connection with the actions specified in this Agreement, Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney in fact, to act for and on Executive’s behalf to execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Executive. Executive hereby assigns to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which Executive now or may hereafter have for infringement of any proprietary rights assigned or transferred hereunder to the Company.
 
 | 
| 
 
8. 
 
 | 
 
Executive understands and agrees: (i) no license or conveyance of any rights or warranty to Executive is granted or implied by the Company furnishing or disclosing any Intellectual Property or Copyrightable Works to Executive; and (ii) the Company shall retain whatever ownership and other proprietary rights it otherwise has in all Intellectual Property and Copyrightable Works.
 
 | 
| 
 
9.
 
 | 
 
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company is engaged in highly competitive businesses and that by virtue of Executive’s position and responsibilities with the Company and Executive’s access to Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, engaging in any business which is directly competitive with the Company will cause it great and irreparable harm.
 
 | 
| 
 
10.
 
 | 
 
Accordingly, both during Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company and during the twelve (12) month period following the cessation of Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and for any reason, Executive shall not, without the express written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies, directly or indirectly engage in any activity – whether as an employee, 
 
 | 
| 
 
11.
 
 | 
 
Executive acknowledges and agrees that solely by reason of employment by Marsh or the Company, Executive has and will come into contact with and develop and maintain relationships with a significant number of the Company’s clients and prospective clients and has and will have access to Confidential Information and Trade Secrets relating thereto, including those regarding the Company’s clients, prospective clients and related information.
 
 | 
| 
 
12.
 
 | 
 
Consequently, during the twelve (12) month period following the cessation of Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and for any reason, Executive shall not, without the express written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit clients or prospective clients of the Company for the purpose of selling or providing products or services of the type sold or provided by Executive while employed by Marsh or the Company; (ii) induce clients or prospective clients of the Company to terminate, cancel, not renew, or not place business with the Company; (iii) perform or supervise the performance of services or provision of products of the type sold or provided by Executive while he was employed by Marsh or the Company on behalf of any clients or prospective clients of the Company; or (iv) assist others to do the acts specified in Sections 12 (i)-(iii).

Executive acknowledges and agrees that solely as a result of employment with Marsh or the Company, and in light of the broad responsibilities of such employment, which include working with other employees of the Company, Executive has and will come into contact with and acquire Confidential Information and Trade Secrets regarding the Company’s other employees. Accordingly, during Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company and during the twelve (12) month period following the cessation of Executive’s employment with Marsh or the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and for any reason, Executive shall not, without the express written consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies, either on Executive’s own account or on behalf of any person, company, corporation, or other entity, directly or indirectly, solicit, or endeavor to cause any employee of the Company with whom Executive, during the last two (2) years of his employment with Marsh or the Company, came into contact for the purpose of soliciting or servicing business or about whom Executive obtained Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, to leave employment with the Company.
 
 | 
| 
 
14.
 
 | 
 
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, business and goodwill of the Company and its subsidiaries. Executive further represents that his experience and capabilities are such that the provisions of this Agreement will not prevent him from earning a livelihood or cause undue hardship and that the covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable in view of the benefits and consideration Executive has received or will receive from the Company.
 
 | 
| 
 
15.
 
 | 
 
In recognition of the fact that irreparable harm will result to the Company in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach of this Agreement by Executive, or Executive’s claim in a declaratory judgment action that all or part of this Agreement is unenforceable, and that money damages may not provide adequate relief, the parties agree that the Company shall be entitled to the following particular forms of relief as a result of such breach, in addition to any remedies otherwise available to it at law or equity: (a) injunctions, both preliminary and permanent, enjoining or restraining such breach or anticipatory breach, and other equitable relief, and Executive hereby consents to the issuance thereof forthwith and without bond by any court of competent jurisdiction; and (b) recovery of all reasonable sums and costs, including attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, expenses and costs incurred by the Company to defend or enforce the provisions of this Agreement.
 
 | 
| 
 
16.
 
 | 
 
In the event that the Company is required to enforce any of its rights contained in this Agreement through legal proceedings, the parties acknowledge that it may be difficult or impossible to ascertain the precise amount of damages or lost profits incurred by the Company. Therefore, in the event of any breach by Executive of this Agreement, in addition to any other relief available to the Company at law or in equity, Executive agrees that the damages for each client lost in whole or in part by the Company as a result of Executive’s breach shall be two hundred percent (200%) of the gross commissions and fees received by the Company from such client during the twelve (12) months preceding the cessation of Executive’s employment. In arriving at this calculation, Executive agrees that the Company and Executive have considered the following factors: (i) the value of the clients; (ii) the business of the Company; (iii) the type and quality of the clients; (iv) the substantial amount of time, effort and expense incurred by the Company in acquiring, developing and maintaining the clients; (v) the number of years the Company typically retains such clients; (vi) the profitability of renewal business; and (vii) various other factors relating to the relationship between the Company and the clients. Executive further agrees that Executive shall be obligated to reimburse the Company for all reasonable costs, expenses and counsel fees incurred by the Company in connection with the enforcement of its rights hereunder.
 
 | 
| 
 
17.
 
 | 
 
The restrictive periods set forth in this Agreement (i) shall be reduced by any period spent by Executive on paid suspension / garden leave, in accordance with Section 3(d) of the Letter Agreement; and (ii) shall not expire and shall be tolled during any period in which Executive is in violation of such restrictive periods, and therefore such restrictive periods shall be extended for a period equal to the duration of any violations thereof by Executive.
 
 | 
| 
 
18.
 
 | 
 
The parties agree they have attempted to limit the scope of the post-employment restrictions contained herein to the extent necessary to protect Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, client relationships and goodwill. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under applicable laws and public policies. Accordingly, if any particular portion of this Agreement shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom such invalid portion, and reformed to the extent valid and enforceable. Such deletion and reformation shall apply only with respect to the operation of this Agreement in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. 
 
 | 
| 
 
19.
 
 | 
 
No modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless made in a written or electronic instrument signed by both parties hereto, wherein specific reference is made to this Agreement. Should Executive move to a different jurisdiction while employed by Marsh or the Company, or upon written request of the Company, Executive agrees to sign, without further consideration, upon direction by the Company, such further writings to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement as necessary to comply with applicable law. Executive’s failure to sign such additional agreements shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.
 
 | 
| 
 
20.
 
 | 
 
The failure of either the Company or Executive, whether purposeful or otherwise, to exercise in any instance any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under law shall not constitute a waiver of the same or any other right, power, or privilege in any other instance. Any waiver by the Company or by Executive must be in a written or electronic instrument signed by either Executive, if Executive is seeking to waive any of his rights under this Agreement, or by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, if the Company is seeking to waive any of its rights under this Agreement.
 
 | 
| 
 
21.
 
 | 
 
This Agreement shall be binding upon Executive, Executive’s heirs, executors and administrators, and upon the Company, and its affiliates, successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and its affiliates, successors and assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by Executive. This Agreement may be enforced by the Company and its affiliates, successors and assigns.
 
 | 
| 
 
22.
 
 | 
 
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law without reference to principles of conflict of laws. This Agreement may not be amended or modified other than by a written agreement executed by Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies.
 
 | 
| 
 
23.
 
 | 
 
The Company and Executive each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agree to submit any dispute as to the terms of effects of this Agreement to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. The Company and Executive agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

AWARDS
 
 | 
| 
 
A.
 
 | 
 
General. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
Award Acceptance. The grant of this Award is contingent upon your acceptance, by the date and in the manner specified by Executive Compensation and/or the Company’s stock plan service provider, of these Terms and Conditions, the Country-Specific Notices and Restrictive Covenants Agreement as described in Section II.A.3. If you decline the Award or if you do not accept the Award and any applicable documents described in the preceding sentence by the deadline date and in the manner specified, then the Award will be canceled as of the grant date of the Award.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Rights of Award Holders. Unless and until the vesting conditions of the Award have been satisfied and cash or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, have been delivered to you in accordance with the Award Documentation, you have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Marsh & McLennan Companies. Unless and until shares of Common Stock have been delivered to you, you have none of the rights of ownership to such shares (e.g., units cannot be used as payment for stock option exercises; units may not be transferred or assigned; units have no voting rights).
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Restrictive Covenants Agreement.  As described in Section II.A.1., a Restrictive Covenants Agreement (“Restrictive Covenants Agreement”) in a form determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies must be in place in order to accept the Award and you must execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to vest pursuant to certain employment events as described in Section III. Failure to timely execute the Restrictive Covenants Agreement by the date specified in the Grant Documentation or failure to timely execute or reaffirm and comply with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement as described in Section III.F.1. or 2., as applicable, will result in cancellation or forfeiture of any rights, title and interest in and to the Award, without any liability to the Company.
 
 | 
| 
 
B.
 
 | 
 
Stock Units. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
General. A deferred stock unit (“Stock Unit”) represents an unfunded and unsecured promise to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to you, subject to the terms of the Award Documentation, one share of Common Stock after vesting.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Vesting. Subject to your continued employment, [100% of the Stock Units will vest on the 15th of the month in which the [third] anniversary of the grant date of the Award occurs] [33 1/3% of the Stock Units will vest on the 15th of the month in which each of the [first, second and third]] anniversaries of the grant date of the Award occurs]]. [Each][The] date on which a Stock Unit is scheduled to vest pursuant to this Section II.B.2. is [a][the] “Scheduled Vesting Date.” In the event of your termination of employment or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability (as defined in Section V.D.) prior to [a][the] Scheduled Vesting Date, your right to any Stock Units that are unvested immediately prior to your termination of employment or occurrence of your Permanent Disability, as applicable, will be determined in accordance with Section III. below. For the avoidance of doubt, the date of your termination of employment for purposes of determining vesting under this Section II.B.2. will be determined in accordance with Section III.E.
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Dividend Equivalents. For each outstanding Stock Unit covered by the Award, an amount equal to the dividend payment (if any) made in respect of one share of Common Stock (a “Dividend Equivalent”) will accrue in U.S. dollars on each dividend record date that occurs on or after the grant date of the Award while the Award is outstanding, with no interest paid on such amounts. Accrued Dividend Equivalents will vest when the Stock Units in respect of which such Dividend Equivalents were accrued vest. No further Dividend Equivalents will accrue on Stock Units that do not vest or are canceled or forfeited. If a pro-rata amount of the outstanding unvested Stock Unit award is eligible to vest upon a termination of employment as described in Section III.C., the pro-rata calculation (as described in Section III.G.) will be applied to the Dividend Equivalents that have accrued on the Award as of the date of termination. Accrued Dividend Equivalents will not be paid, and no further Dividend Equivalents will accrue, on Stock Units that do not vest or are canceled or forfeited as per a termination of employment event described in Section III.D.

Delivery. 
 
 | 
|

 | 
 
The value of vested Dividend Equivalents will be delivered to you in cash as soon as practicable after vesting and in no event later than 60 days after vesting.
 
 | 
|

 | 
| 
 
d.
 
 | 
 
Any shares of Common Stock and/or cash or other property that may be deliverable following your death shall be delivered to the person or persons to

 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
U.S. Employees. Applicable employment taxes are required by law to be withheld when a Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent vests. Applicable income taxes are required by law to be withheld when shares of Common Stock in respect of Stock Units or cash in respect of Dividend Equivalents are delivered to you. A sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock, cash or other property, as applicable, will be retained by Marsh & McLennan Companies to satisfy the tax-withholding obligation.

| 
 
3. 
 
 | 
 
Non-U.S. Employees.
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents.  In most countries, the value of a Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent is generally not taxable on the grant date. If the value of the Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent is not taxable on the grant date, it will, in most countries, be taxed at a later time, for example, upon delivery of a share of Common Stock in respect of the Stock Unit that vests, and/or the subsequent sale of the share of Common Stock received in connection with the vesting of the Stock Unit or upon delivery of cash in respect of a Dividend Equivalent. 
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Withholding. Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer shall have the power and the right to deduct and withhold from the Award and other compensation or to require you to remit to Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or to your employer, an amount sufficient to satisfy any taxes that Marsh & McLennan Companies expects to be payable under the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, payment on account, capital gain taxes, transfer taxes, social security contributions, and National Insurance Contributions with respect to the Award, and any and all associated tax events derived therefrom. If applicable, Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer will, to the extent permissible under applicable law or otherwise agreed between you and Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer, retain and sell a sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock distributable in respect of the Award for this purpose.

 | 
|

Section 409A of the Code for Award Recipients Subject to U.S. Federal Income Tax (whether or not the recipient is a U.S. citizen or employed in the U.S.). 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
For Award recipients subject to U.S. federal income tax, notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Award may be subject to additional restrictions to ensure compliance with (or continued exemption from) the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (as defined in Section V.E.). The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Marsh & McLennan Companies (the “Committee”) intends to administer the Award in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and reserves the right to make changes in the terms or operations of the Award (including changes that may have retroactive effect) deemed necessary or desirable to comply with Section 409A of the Code. This means, for example, that the timing of distributions may be different from those described in the Award Documentation that do not reflect Section 409A of the Code. If the Award is not in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, you may be subject to immediate taxation of all unpaid awards under the Plan that are subject to Section 409A of the Code at your regular federal income tax rate, plus a 20% additional tax, plus interest at the underpayment rate plus 1%, as well as any state and local taxes, penalties, additional taxes and interest, if applicable, imposed under any state tax law similar to Section 409A of the Code. 
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any portion of the Award is determined to be nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, any references to “termination of employment,” or “when you are no longer employed” in these Terms and Conditions shall have the following meaning:
 
 | 
| 
 
3.

Award Acceptance.  The grant of this Award is contingent upon your acceptance, by the date and in the manner specified by Executive Compensation and/or the Company’s stock plan service provider, of these Terms and Conditions, the Country-Specific Notices and Restrictive Covenants Agreement as described in Section II.A.3. If you decline the Award or if you do not accept the Award and any applicable documents described in the preceding sentence by the deadline date and in the manner specified, then the Award will be cancelled as of the grant date of the Award.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Rights of Award Holders.  Unless and until the vesting conditions of the Award have been satisfied and cash or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, have been delivered to you in accordance with the Award Documentation, you have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Marsh & McLennan Companies. Unless and until shares of Common Stock have been delivered to you, you have none of the rights of ownership to such shares (e.g., units cannot be used as payment for stock option exercises; units may not be transferred or assigned; units have no voting rights).
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Restrictive Covenants Agreement.  As described in Section II.A.1., a Restrictive Covenants Agreement (“Restrictive Covenants Agreement”) in a form determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies must be in place in order to accept the Award, you must execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies in its sole discretion, the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to vest pursuant to certain employment events as described in Section III., and you must further execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies in its sole discretion, and be in compliance with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to become distributable to you whether or not you are employed by the Company at that time. Failure to timely execute the Restrictive Covenants Agreement by the date specified by the Company or failure to timely execute or reaffirm and comply with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement as 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
General.  A restricted stock unit (“Stock Unit”) represents an unfunded and unsecured promise to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to you, subject to the terms of the Award Documentation, one share of Common Stock after vesting.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Vesting.  Subject to your continued employment, 33-1/3% of the Stock Units will vest on [DATE] of [YEAR], [YEAR] and [YEAR]. Each date on which a Stock Unit is scheduled to vest pursuant to this Section II.B.2. is a “Scheduled Vesting Date.” In the event of your termination of employment, the occurrence of your Permanent Disability (as defined in Section V.H.) or the occurrence of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Plan) prior to a Scheduled Vesting Date, your right to any Stock Units that are unvested immediately prior to your termination of employment or occurrence of your Permanent Disability, as applicable, will be determined in accordance with Section III. or Section IV., as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the date of your termination of employment for purposes of determining vesting under this Section II.B.2. will be determined in accordance with Section III.G.
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Dividend Equivalents.  For each outstanding Stock Unit covered by the Award, an amount equal to the dividend payment (if any) made in respect of one share of Common Stock (a “Dividend Equivalent”) will accrue in U.S. dollars on each dividend record date that occurs on or after the grant date of the Award while the Award is outstanding, with no interest paid on such amounts. Accrued Dividend Equivalents will vest when the Stock Units in respect of which such Dividend Equivalents were accrued vest. No further Dividend Equivalents will accrue on Stock Units that do not vest or are cancelled or forfeited. If a pro-rata amount of the outstanding unvested Stock Unit award is eligible to vest upon a termination of employment event as described in Section III.C.1, III.D and III.E.1, the pro-rata calculation (as described in Section III.I) will be applied to the Dividend Equivalents that have accrued on the Award as of the date of termination. Accrued Dividend Equivalents will not be paid, and no further Dividend Equivalents will accrue, on Stock Units that do not vest or are cancelled or forfeited as per a termination of employment event described in Section III.F. 
 
 | 
| 
 
4.
 
 |

 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
Shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of the Stock Units covered by the Award shall be delivered to you as soon as practicable following the Scheduled Vesting Date, and in no event later than 60 days following the Scheduled Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in Sections III., IV., and VI.B.
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
The value of vested Dividend Equivalents will be delivered to you in cash as soon as practicable after delivery of the shares of Common Stock described in II.B.4.a above, and in no event later than 60 days following 
 
 | 
| 
 
c.
 
 | 
 
The delivery of shares of Common Stock and/or cash or other property that may be deliverable under these Terms and Conditions, is conditioned on the satisfaction or withholding of any applicable tax obligations, as described in Section II.C.
 
 | 
| 
 
d.
 
 | 
 
Any shares of Common Stock and/or cash or other property that may be deliverable following your death shall be delivered to the person or persons to whom your rights pass by will or the law of descent and distribution, and such delivery shall completely discharge Marsh & McLennan Companies and any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ obligations under the Award.
 
 | 
| 
 
e.
 
 | 
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, additional delivery rules for certain Award recipients subject to U.S. federal income tax (whether or not the recipient is a U.S. citizen or employed in the U.S.) are reflected in Section III.J.
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
Personal Tax Advisor.  Neither the Company nor any Company employee is authorized to provide personal tax advice to you. It is recommended that you consult with your personal tax advisor for more detailed information regarding the tax treatment of the Award, especially before making any decisions that rely on that tax treatment.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
U.S. Employees. Applicable employment taxes are required by law to be withheld when a Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent vests. Applicable income taxes are required by law to be withheld when shares of Common Stock in respect of Stock Units or cash in respect of Dividend Equivalents are delivered to you. A sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock, cash or other property, as applicable, will be retained by Marsh & McLennan Companies to satisfy the tax-withholding obligation.
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Non-U.S. Employees.
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents.  In most countries, the value of a Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent is generally not taxable on the grant date. If the value of the Stock Unit or Dividend Equivalent is not taxable on the grant date, it will, in most countries, be taxed at a later time, for example, upon delivery of a share of Common Stock in respect of the Stock Unit that vests, and/or the subsequent sale of the share of Common Stock received in connection with the vesting of the Stock Unit or upon delivery of cash in respect of a Dividend Equivalent.
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Withholding.  Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer shall have the power and the right to deduct and withhold from the Award and other compensation or to require you to remit to Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or to your employer, an amount sufficient to satisfy any taxes that Marsh & McLennan Companies expects to be payable under the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, payment on account, capital gain taxes, transfer taxes, social security 
 
 | 
| 
 
A.
 
 | 
 
Death. In the event your employment is terminated because of your death, all of the unvested Stock Units that are outstanding as of the date of your death will fully vest and will be distributed within 60 days following such date.
 
 | 
| 
 
B.
 
 | 
 
Permanent Disability. Upon the occurrence of your Permanent Disability, all of the unvested Stock Units that are outstanding as of the occurrence of your Permanent Disability will remain outstanding and will be distributed as soon as practicable following the next Scheduled Vesting Date as described in Section II.B.4.; provided that you have satisfied the conditions described in Section III.H.1.
 
 | 
| 
 
C.
 
 | 
 
Termination by You Outside of the European Union - Age and Service Treatment. If you have satisfied the Age and Service Criteria for Pro-Rata Vesting (as defined in Section V.B.) or the Age and Service Criteria for Full Vesting (as defined in Section V.A.) on or before the date you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, to be employed outside of the European Union (as defined in V.F.), then:
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
If you have satisfied the Age and Service Criteria for Pro-Rata Vesting but not the Age and Service Criteria for Full Vesting, upon such termination of employment, a pro-rata portion of the unvested Stock Units that are outstanding as of such termination of employment will remain outstanding (as described in Section III.I) and will be distributed as soon as practicable following the next Scheduled Vesting Date as described in Section II.B.4.; provided that you have satisfied the conditions described in Section III.H.1. The portion of the unvested Stock Units that does not remain outstanding pursuant to this paragraph will be forfeited and cancelled. 
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
If you have satisfied the Age and Service Criteria for Full Vesting, upon such termination of employment, all of the unvested Stock Units that are outstanding as of such termination of employment will remain outstanding and be distributed as soon as practicable following the next Scheduled Vesting Date as described in Section II.B.4.; provided that you have satisfied the conditions described in Section III.H.1. 
 
 | 
| 
 
D.
 
 | 
 
Termination by You Within the European Union - Retirement Treatment. Provided you have a minimum of five years of service with the Company on or before you terminate employment, you will be eligible to apply for retirement treatment. If you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee (as defined in Section V.I.) to be eligible for retirement treatment on or following the time you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be employed within the European Union, then upon your termination of employment a pro-rata portion of the unvested Stock Units that are outstanding as of such termination of employment will remain outstanding (as described in Section III.I.) until the later to occur of the next Scheduled Vesting Date or the determination by the Retirement Treatment Committee that you are eligible for retirement treatment, and will be distributed as soon as practicable, and in no event later than 60 days thereafter; provided that you have satisfied the conditions described in Section III.H.1. Prior to distribution, Marsh & McLennan Companies in its sole discretion may ask you to reaffirm the existence of the facts and factors upon which the determination to provide retirement treatment was made. The portion of the unvested Stock Units that does not remain outstanding pursuant to this paragraph will be forfeited and cancelled. For the avoidance of doubt, Section III.E.1. will govern the treatment of the Award in the event your employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause. For the further avoidance of doubt, if your termination of employment occurs on a Scheduled Vesting Date, distribution will occur within 60 days following such Scheduled Vesting Date (or, if later, within 60 days following the determination by the Retirement Treatment Committee that you are eligible for retirement treatment). For the avoidance of doubt, the date of your termination of employment for purposes of determining whether you have satisfied the minimum service requirement under this Section III.D. will be determined in accordance with Section III.G.

Rights of Award Holders.  Unless and until the vesting conditions of the Award have been satisfied and cash or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, have been delivered to you in accordance with the Award Documentation, you have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Marsh & McLennan Companies. Unless and until shares of Common Stock have been delivered to you, you have none of the rights of ownership to such shares (e.g., units cannot be used as payment for stock option exercises; units may not be transferred or assigned; units have no voting rights, etc.).

Restrictive Covenants Agreement. As described in Section II.A.1., a Restrictive Covenants Agreement (“Restrictive Covenants Agreement”) in a form determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies must be in place in order to accept the Award, you must execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies in its sole discretion, the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to vest pursuant to certain employment events as described in Section III., and you must further execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies in its sole discretion, and be in compliance with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to become distributable to you whether or not

Performance Stock Units. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
General.  A performance stock unit (“PSU”) represents an unfunded and unsecured promise to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to you, subject to the terms of the Award Documentation, a minimum of zero (0) and up to a maximum of two (2) shares of Common Stock after vesting, depending on the achievement, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Marsh & McLennan Companies (the “Committee”), of the Company earnings per share performance factor (the “EPS Performance Factor”) and relative shareholder return modifier (“Relative TSR Modifier”) performance objectives established by the Committee for the Performance Period (as defined in Section V.I.). In the event of your termination of employment or occurrence of your Permanent Disability (as defined in Section V.J.) prior to the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date (defined below), the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a PSU shall be determined as provided in Sections III. and IV.A.3. 
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Vesting.  Subject to your continued employment, the PSUs are scheduled to vest on [DATE] (the “PSU Scheduled Vesting Date”). In the event of your termination of employment, the occurrence of your Permanent Disability (as defined in Section V.J.) or the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) prior to the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date, your right to the PSUs will be determined in accordance with Section III. or Section IV., as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the date of your termination of employment for purposes of this Section II.B.2. will be determined in accordance with Section III.H.
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Dividend Equivalents.   A payment will be made that is equal to the dividend payment (if any) that would have been made, on each dividend record date that occurs on or after the date of grant while the PSUs are outstanding, in respect of the number of shares of Common Stock that is determined under Section II.B.1 to be delivered in respect of vested PSUs (a “Dividend Equivalent”). Dividend Equivalents will vest when the PSUs, in respect of which such Dividend Equivalents were calculated, vest. Prior to the determination described in Section II.B.1, for each outstanding PSU, an amount equal to the dividend payment (if any) made in respect of one share of Common Stock will accrue in U.S. dollars on each dividend record date that occurs on or after the grant date of the Award while the Award is outstanding, with no interest paid on such amounts. No further dividend equivalents will accrue on PSUs that do not vest or are canceled or forfeited. If a pro-rata amount of the outstanding unvested PSUs is eligible to vest upon a termination of employment as described in Section III.C, III.E and III.F, the pro-rata calculation applied to the outstanding PSUs described in Section III.J will be applied to the dividend equivalents that have accrued on the Award as of the date of termination. Accrued dividend equivalents will not be paid, and no further

 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
The value of vested Dividend Equivalents that vest on the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date will be delivered to you in cash as soon as practicable after delivery of the shares of Common Stock described in II.B.4.a. above, and in no event later than 60 days following the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in Sections III., IV., and VI.B.
 
 | 
| 
 
c.
 
 | 
 
The delivery of shares of Common Stock and/or cash or other property that may be deliverable under these Terms and Conditions, is conditioned on the satisfaction or withholding of any applicable tax obligations, as described in Section II.C.
 
 | 
| 
 
d.
 
 | 
 
Any shares of Common Stock and/or cash or other property that may be deliverable following your death shall be delivered to the person or persons to whom your rights pass by will or the law of descent and distribution, and such delivery shall completely discharge the Company’s obligations under the Award.
 
 | 
| 
 
e.
 
 | 
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, additional delivery rules for certain Award recipients subject to U.S. federal income tax (whether or not the recipient is a U.S. citizen or employed in the U.S.) are reflected in Section III.K.

Satisfaction of Tax Obligations. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
Personal Tax Advisor.  Neither the Company nor any Company employee is authorized to provide personal tax advice to you.

2.
 
 | 
 
U.S. Employees - Performance Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents.  Applicable employment taxes are required by law to be withheld when a PSU or Dividend Equivalent vests, or, if later, when the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a PSU (or the amount of cash payable in respect of a Dividend Equivalent corresponding to a PSU) is determined. Applicable income taxes are required by law to be withheld when shares of Common Stock in respect of PSUs or cash in respect of Dividend Equivalents are delivered to you. A sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock, cash or other property, as applicable, will be retained by Marsh & McLennan Companies to satisfy the tax-withholding obligation.

| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Non-U.S. Employees. 
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
Performance Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents. In most countries, the value of a PSU or Dividend Equivalent is generally not taxable on the grant date. If the value of the PSU or Dividend Equivalent is not taxable on the grant date, it will, in most countries, be taxed at a later time, for example, upon delivery of a share of Common Stock in respect of the PSU that vests, and/or the subsequent sale of the share of Common Stock received in connection with the vesting of the PSU, or upon delivery of cash in respect of a Dividend Equivalent. 
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Withholding. Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer shall have the power and the right to deduct and withhold from the Award and other compensation or to require you to remit to Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or to your employer, an amount sufficient to satisfy any taxes that Marsh & McLennan Companies expects to be payable under the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, payment on account, capital gain taxes, transfer taxes, social security contributions and National Insurance Contributions with respect to the Award, and any and all associated tax events derived therefrom. If applicable, Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer will, to the extent permissible under applicable law or otherwise agreed between you and Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer, retain and sell a sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock distributable in respect of the Award for this purpose.

| 
 
A.
 
 | 
 
Death.  In the event your employment is terminated because of your death, all of the unvested PSUs that are outstanding as of the date of your death will fully vest and will be distributed within 60 days following such date. The Performance Period will be deemed to have ended on December 31 of the year immediately preceding the date of your death, and the number of shares of Common Stock distributable in respect of the PSUs will be determined in accordance with Section II.B.1.; provided that, in the event that your death occurs on or prior to December 31 of the year in which the PSUs are granted, you will receive one (1) share of Common Stock in respect of each PSU.
 
 | 
| 
 
B.
 
 | 
 
Permanent Disability.  Upon the occurrence of your Permanent Disability, all of the unvested PSUs that are outstanding as of the occurrence of your Permanent Disability will remain outstanding until the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date and will be distributed as soon as practicable following the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date as described in Section II.B.4; provided that you have satisfied the conditions described in Section III.I.1.; and provided further that the number of shares of Common Stock distributable in respect of such PSUs will be determined in accordance with Section II.B.1.

Termination by You Outside of the European Union - Age and Service Full Vesting.  If you have satisfied the Age and Service Criteria for Full Vesting on or before the date you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, to be employed outside of the European Union, then this Section III.D. shall apply. For the avoidance of doubt, Section III.F. will govern the treatment of the Award in the event your employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause.
 
 | 
| 
 
E.
 
 | 
 
Termination by You Within the European Union - Retirement Treatment.  Provided you have a minimum of five years of service with the Company on or before you terminate employment, you will be eligible to apply for retirement treatment. If you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee (as defined in Section V.K.) to be eligible for retirement treatment on or following the time you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be employed within the European Union, then this Section III.E. shall apply.

For Award recipients subject to U.S. federal income tax, notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Award may be subject to additional restrictions to ensure compliance with (or continued exemption from) the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (as defined in Section V.L.). The Committee intends to administer the Award in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and reserves the right to make changes in the terms or operations of the Award (including changes that may have retroactive effect) deemed necessary or desirable to comply with Section 409A of the Code. This means, for example, that the timing of distributions may be different from those described in the Award Documentation that do not reflect Section 409A of the Code. If the Award is not in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, you may be subject to immediate taxation of all unpaid awards under the Plan that are subject to Section 409A of the Code at your regular federal income tax rate, plus a 20% additional tax, plus interest at the underpayment rate plus 1%, as well as any state and local taxes, penalties, additional taxes and interest, if applicable, imposed under any state tax law similar to Section 409A of the Code.

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if at the time of your termination of employment you are a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code), no portion of the Award that is determined to be nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code can be distributed prior to the first day of the seventh month after your termination of employment and any such distributions to which you would otherwise be entitled during the first six months following your termination of employment will be accumulated and paid without interest on the first day of the seventh month after your termination of employment. The provisions of this subparagraph will only apply if and to the extent required to avoid any “additional tax” under Section 409A of the Code.

Notwithstanding any provision herein, if (i) a Change in Control occurs on or prior to December 31 of the second year of the three-year Performance Period and (ii) no earlier than in the third year of the three-year Performance Period, (A) you satisfy the Age and Service Criteria for Pro-Rata Vesting, (B) you satisfy the Age and Service Criteria for Full Vesting, (C) you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee to be eligible for retirement treatment on or following your termination of employment, (D) you are terminated by the Company other than for Cause, or (E) the occurrence of your Permanent Disability, then shares of Common Stock deliverable on the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date in respect of the PSUs covered by the Award shall be distributed to you as soon as practicable following the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date, and in no event later than March 15 of the year in which the PSU Scheduled Vesting Date occurs.

| 
 
A.
 
 | 
 
General. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
Award Acceptance.  The grant of this Award is contingent upon your acceptance, by the date and in the manner specified by Executive Compensation and/or the Company’s stock plan service provider, of these Terms and Conditions, the Country-Specific Notices and Restrictive Covenants Agreement as described in Section II.A.3. If you decline the Award or if you do not accept the Award and any applicable documents described in the preceding sentence by the deadline date and in the manner specified, then the Award will be canceled as of the grant date of the Award.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Rights of Award Holders.  Unless and until the vesting conditions of the Award have been satisfied and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, have been delivered to you upon your exercise of the Award in accordance with the Award Documentation, you have none of the rights of ownership to such shares (e.g., Options cannot be transferred or assigned; Options have no voting rights, etc.). 
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Restrictive Covenants Agreement.  As described in Section II.A.1., a Restrictive Covenants Agreement (“Restrictive Covenants Agreement”) in a form determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies must be in place in order to accept the Award, you must execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order for the Award to vest pursuant to certain employment events as described in Section III., and you must further execute or reaffirm, as determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, and be in compliance with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in order to exercise an Option whether or not you are employed by the Company at that time. Failure to timely execute the Restrictive Covenants Agreement by the date specified by the Company or failure to timely execute or reaffirm and comply with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement as described in Section III.H.1. or 2., as applicable, will result in cancellation or forfeiture of any rights, title and interest in and to the Award, without any liability to the Company.
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
General.  A stock option (“Option”) represents the right to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) at a specified exercise price for a specified period.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
Vesting.  Subject to your continued employment, 25% of the Option Shares covered by the Option will vest on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date of the Award. Each date on which an Option Share covered by the Option is scheduled to vest is an “Option Scheduled Vesting Date.”  In the event of your termination of employment or occurrence of your Permanent Disability (as defined in Section V.H.) prior to an Option Scheduled Vesting Date, your right to any Option Shares covered by the Option that are unvested immediately prior to your termination of employment or occurrence of your Permanent Disability, as applicable, will be determined in accordance with Section III. For the avoidance of doubt, the date of your termination of employment for purposes of this Section II.B.2. will be determined in accordance with Section III.G. 
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Term.  Subject to your continued employment, the Option will expire on the day immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the grant date of the Award (“Option Expiration Date”). If your employment terminates before the Option Expiration Date, your right to exercise any vested Option Shares covered by the Option will be determined in accordance with Section III.
 
 | 
| 
 
4.
 
 | 
 
Exercisability.  The Option Shares covered by the Option will become exercisable when they vest. You are responsible for keeping track of exercise periods while actively employed and, if applicable, any post-termination exercise periods.
 
 | 
| 
 
5.
 
 | 
 
Method of Exercise of an Option. 
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
General Procedures. An Option may be exercised by written notice (or other notice as required by the Company and/or its stock plan service provider) to Marsh & McLennan Companies or an agent appointed by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in form and substance satisfactory to Marsh & McLennan Companies, which must state the election to exercise such Option, the number of Option Shares for which such Option is being exercised and such other representations and agreements as may be required pursuant to the provisions of the Award Documentation (the “Exercise Notice”). The Exercise Notice must be accompanied by (i) any required income tax forms and (ii) any required reaffirmation of the Restrictive Covenants Agreement, unless (A) the Option is being exercised after your death in accordance with Section III. or (B) as otherwise determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies.
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Payment of Exercise Price.  Payment of the aggregate exercise price may be made with U.S. dollars or by tendering shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock acquired from a stock option exercise or a stock unit award vesting) at your election.
 
 | 
| 
 
c.
 
 | 
 
Distribution of Option Shares.  The shares of Common Stock from the Option exercise will be distributed as specified in the Exercise Notice, after you have 
 
 | 
| 
 
C.
 
 | 
 
Satisfaction of Tax Obligations. 
 
 | 
| 
 
1.
 
 | 
 
Personal Tax Advisor.  Neither the Company nor any Company employee is authorized to provide personal tax advice to you. It is recommended that you consult with your personal tax advisor for more detailed information regarding the tax treatment of the Award, especially before making any decisions that rely on that tax treatment.
 
 | 
| 
 
2.
 
 | 
 
U.S. Employees. Applicable taxes (including employment taxes) are required by law to be withheld when a nonqualified Option is exercised. A sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock resulting from the Option exercise will be retained by Marsh & McLennan Companies to satisfy the tax-withholding obligation unless you elect in the Exercise Notice to satisfy all applicable tax withholding in another manner.
 
 | 
| 
 
3.
 
 | 
 
Non-U.S. Employees. 
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
In most countries, the value of an Option is generally not taxable on the grant date. If the value of the Option is not taxable on the grant date, it will, in most countries, be taxed at a later time, for example, upon exercise of the Option and delivery of shares of Common Stock in respect of the Option, and/or the subsequent sale of the shares of Common Stock.
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Withholding. Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer shall have the power and the right to deduct and withhold from the Award and other compensation or to require you to remit to Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or to your employer, an amount sufficient to satisfy any taxes that Marsh & McLennan Companies expects to be payable under the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, payment on account, capital gain taxes, transfer taxes, social security contributions and National Insurance Contributions with respect to the Award, and any and all associated tax events derived therefrom. If applicable, Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer will, to the extent permissible under applicable law or otherwise agreed between you and Marsh & McLennan Companies and/or your employer, retain and sell a sufficient number of whole shares of Common Stock distributable in respect of the Award for this purpose.
 
 | 
| 
 
A.
 
 | 
 
Death. In the event your employment is terminated because of your death, the Option will fully vest with respect to any unvested Option Shares and will become exercisable as of the date of your death. The person or persons to whom your rights under the Option shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution shall be entitled to exercise such Option with respect to any Option Shares that vest (and any Option Shares that were already vested at the time of your death) within two years after the date of death, but in no event shall the Option be exercisable after the Option Expiration Date.
 
 | 
| 
 
B.
 
 | 
 
Permanent Disability. Upon the occurrence of your Permanent Disability, the Option will fully vest with respect to any unvested Option Shares and will become exercisable; provided that you satisfy the conditions described in Section III.H.1; and provided further that any such Option Shares that vest in accordance with this Section III.B. (and any Option Shares that were already vested at the time your Permanent Disability occurred) shall be exercisable for two years following the occurrence of your Permanent Disability, but in no event shall the Option be exercisable after the Option Expiration Date.
 
 | 
| 
 
C.
 
 | 
 
Termination by You Outside of the European Union - Age and Service Vesting. If you have satisfied the Age and Service Criteria for Vesting (as defined in Section V.A.) on or before the date you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by Marsh & McLennan Companies, in its sole discretion, to be employed outside of the European Union (as defined in Section V.F.), then this Section III.C. shall apply. For the avoidance of doubt, Section III.E. will govern the treatment of the Award in the event your employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause (as defined in Section V.B.). 
 
 | 
| 
 
D.
 
 | 
 
Termination by You Within the European Union - Retirement Treatment. Provided you have a minimum of five years of service with the Company on or before you terminate employment, you will be eligible to apply for retirement treatment. If you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee (as defined in Section V.I.) to be eligible for retirement treatment on or following the time you terminate your employment with the Company for any reason other than death or the occurrence of your Permanent Disability and you are determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be employed within the European Union, then this Section III.D. shall apply. For the avoidance of doubt, Section III.E. will govern the treatment of the Award in the event your employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause (as defined in Section V.B.).

 | 
 
Treatment of Stock Options.  
 
 | 
| 
 
a.
 
 | 
 
General. Except as otherwise provided in Sections III.E.1.b. and IV., in the event the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that your employment is terminated other than for Cause, your rights, title and interest in and to any unvested Option Shares will be canceled upon such termination of employment. Provided that you satisfy the conditions to vesting described in Section III.H.2., any Option Shares that were vested at the time of your termination of employment shall be exercisable until the earlier of 90 days following your termination of employment and the Option Expiration Date.
 
 | 
| 
 
b.
 
 | 
 
Termination by the Company Other Than for Cause After Satisfaction of Age and Service Criteria for Vesting or You Are Determined to Be Eligible for Retirement Treatment. In the event the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that your employment is terminated other than for Cause, and on or before such time you satisfy the Age and Service Criteria for Vesting or you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee to be eligible for retirement treatment on or following your termination of employment, the Option will continue to vest with respect to any unvested Option Shares as provided in Section II.B.2. as if your employment had not terminated and the Option Shares will become exercisable as provided in Section II.B.4.; provided that you satisfy the conditions to vesting described in Section III.H.2. Provided that you satisfy the conditions described in Section III.H.2., any such Option Shares that vest (and any Option Shares that were already vested at the time of your termination of employment) shall be exercisable until the earlier of the fifth anniversary of your termination of employment and the Option Expiration Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if an Option Scheduled Vesting Date occurs following the date that your employment is terminated by the Company but prior to the date the Retirement Treatment Committee determines that you are eligible for retirement treatment, the Options Shares that were scheduled to vest on such Option Scheduled Vesting Date will vest on the date you are determined by the Retirement Treatment Committee to be eligible for retirement treatment.

I am a member of the Bar of the State of New York. The opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of New York, the Federal laws of the United States of America and the Delaware General Corporation Law, in each case as currently in effect.
 
 | 
| 
 
(b)
 
 | 
 
In rendering the opinion expressed in paragraph 3 above, I have assumed that borrowings by the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement do not cause the Company to exceed any limitations established by its Board of Directors with respect to the Company’s permitted aggregate borrowings.
 
 | 
| 
 
(c)
 
 | 
 
The opinions expressed above are subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization and moratorium laws, and other similar laws relating to or affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights or remedies generally, (ii) general principles of equity (whether such principles are considered in a proceeding at law or equity), including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, reasonableness and fair dealing, and standards of materiality, and (iii) possible judicial action giving effect to foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial actions affecting or relating to the rights or remedies of creditors. 
 
 | 
| 
 
(e)
 
 | 
 
I express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of any Loan Document that purports to (i) grant rights to exculpation, indemnification or contribution, (ii) provide indemnity against loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in another currency or (iii) authorize or permit any purchaser of a participation interest from any party to set off or apply any deposit, property or indebtedness with respect to any participation. I express no opinion concerning whether a United States Federal court would accept jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby. I express no opinion as to the effect of, or compliance with, any United States Federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations. I express no opinion with respect to Section 7.11 and 10.18 of the Credit Agreement.
