(E)

for up to an eighteen-month period after the Date of Termination, the Corporation will arrange to provide you and your eligible dependents, at the Manpower Group’s expense, with Health Insurance Continuation (defined below), or other substantially

6

similar coverage, in which you were participating on the Date of Termination; provided, however, that benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this Subsection 2(c)(i)(E) will be reduced to the extent other comparable benefits are actually received by you during the eighteen-month period following your termination, and any such benefits actually received by you or your dependents will be reported to the Corpora­tion; and provided, further that any insurance continuation coverage that you may be entitled to receive under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986, as amended (“COBRA”), or similar foreign or state laws will commence on the Date of Termination.

the Corporation will pay you, your unpaid bonus, if any, attributable to any complete fiscal year of the Manpower Group ended before the Date of Termination;

(C)

the Corporation will pay you, a bonus for the fiscal year during which the Date of Termination occurs equal in amount to the bonus you would have received for the full fiscal year had your employment not terminated, determined by the actual financial results of the Corporation at year-end towards any non-discretionary financial goals and by basing any discretionary component at the target level of such component; provided, however, that such bonus will be prorated for the actual number of days you were employed during the fiscal year during which the Date of Termination occurs;

(D)

the Corporation will pay, as a severance benefit to you, a lump sum payment equal to (1) the amount of your annual base salary at the highest rate in effect during the Term plus (2) your target annual bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs (or, to the extent the Date of Termination occurs prior to the date on which the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board approves a bona fide target annual bonus for you for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs, your target annual bonus for the fiscal year prior to the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs);

(E)

for up to a twelve-month period after the Date of Termination, the Corporation will arrange to provide you and your eligible dependents with Health Insurance Continuation (defined below); provided, however, that benefits otherwise receivable by you pursuant to this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(E) will be reduced to the extent other comparable benefits are actually received by you during the twelve-month period following your termination, and any such benefits actually received by you or your dependents will be reported to the Corporation; and provided, further that any insurance continuation coverage that you may be entitled to receive under COBRA or similar foreign or state laws will commence on the Date of Termination.

For purposes of this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(E), “Health Insurance Continuation” means that, if, and to the extent, you or any of your eligible dependents, following the Date of Termination, elect to continue coverage under the Corporation’s group medical and dental insurance plans, in accordance with the requirements of COBRA or similar foreign or state laws, the Manpower Group will pay the normal monthly employer’s cost of coverage under the Corporation’s group medical and dental insurance plans toward such COBRA coverage for the first twelve months for which you and/or your eligible dependents are eligible for such coverage; provided, however, that if you, your spouse or any other eligible dependent commences new employment during such twelve-month period and becomes eligible for health insurance benefits from such new employer, the Corporation’s obligation to provide such Corporation-subsidized COBRA cov erage to you or such eligible dependent shall terminate as of the date you or such dependent becomes eligible to receive such health insurance benefits from such new employer.  During this period of Corporation-subsidized COBRA coverage, you will be responsible for paying the balance of any costs not paid for by the Manpower Group under this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(E) which are associated with your participation in the Corporation’s medical and dental insurance plans and your failure to pay such costs may result in the termination of your participation in such plans.  The Corporation may deduct from any amounts payable to you under this Subsection 2(c)(ii) any amounts that you are responsible to pay for Health Insurance Continuation under this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(E).  Immediately following this period of Corporation-subsidized COBRA coverage, you and/or your eligible dependents, as applicable, will be solely responsible for payment of the entire cost of COBRA coverage if such coverage remains available and you and/or your eligible dependents choose to continue such coverage.  Within five

9

calendar days of you or any of your eligible dependents becoming eligible to receive health insurance benefits from a new employer, you agree to inform the Corporation of such fact in writing.  If the Manpower Group determines that the Corporation-subsidized COBRA payments provided by this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(E) are taxable, the payments will be grossed-up so that the net amount received by you, after subtraction of all taxes applicable to the payments plus the gross-up amount, will equal the cost of such COBRA coverage; and

(F)

the Corporation will make available to you, an outplacement service program, chosen by the Corporation, and provided by the Corporation or its subsidiaries or an outplacement service provider selected by the Corporation.  Such outplacement service program will be of a duration chosen by the Corporation but will not, in any instance, end later than one (1) year following the Date of Termination.  Upon completion of the outplacement program specified in this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(F), you will be solely responsible for payment of any additional costs incurred as a result of your use of such outplacement services.  The Corporation will not substitute cash or other compensation in lieu of the outplacement service program specified in this Subsection 2(c)(ii)(F).

The amounts paid to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) or 2(c)(ii)(D) will not be included as compensation for purposes of any qualified or nonqualified pension or welfare benefit plan of the Manpower Group.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation, based on the advice of its legal or tax counsel, shall compute whether there would be any “excess parachute payments” payable to you, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taking into account the total ‘‘parachute payments,” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, payable to you by the Corporation under this letter agreement and any other plan, agreement or otherwise.  If there would be any excess parachute payments, the Corporation, based on the advice of its legal or tax counsel, shall comput e the net after-tax proceeds to you, taking into account the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, as if (i) amount to be paid to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) were reduced, but not below zero, such that the total parachute payments payable to you would not exceed three (3) times the “base amount” as defined in Section 280G of the Code, less One Dollar ($1.00), or (ii) the full amount to be paid to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) were not reduced.  If reducing the amount otherwise payable to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) hereof would result in a greater after-tax amount to you, such reduced amount shall be paid to you and the remainder shall be forfeited by you as of the Date of Termination.  If not reducing the amount otherwise payable to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) would result in a greater after-tax amount to you, the amount payable to you pursuant to Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) shall not be reduced.

(d)

Payment.  The payments provided for in Subsection 2(c)(i)(A) or 2(c)(ii)(A), above, will be made no later than required by applicable law.  The bonus payment

10

provided for in Subsection 2(c)(i)(B) or 2(c)(ii)(B) will be made pursuant to the terms of the applicable bonus plan.  The bonus payment provided for in Subsection 2(c)(i)(C) will be paid no later than thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination.  The bonus payment provided for in Subsection 2(c)(ii)(C) will between January 1 and March 15 of the calendar year following the Date of Termination.  The severance benefit provided for in Subsection 2(c)(i)(D) or 2(c)(ii)(D) will be paid in one lump sum no later than thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination.  While the parties acknowledge that the payments in the previous three sentences are intended to be “short-term deferrals” and therefore are exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent (i) further guidance or interpretation is issued by the IRS after the date of this letter agreement which would i ndicate that the payments do not qualify as “short-term deferrals,” and (ii) you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code upon the Date of Termination, such payments shall be delayed and instead shall be paid in one lump sum on the date that is six months after the Date of Termination.  If any of such payment is not made when due (hereinafter a “Delinquent Payment”), in addition to such principal sum, the Corporation will pay you interest on any and all such Delinquent Payments from the date due computed at the prime rate, compounded monthly.  Such prime rate shall be the prime rate (currently the base rate on corporate loans posted by at least 75% of the 30 largest U.S. banks) in effect from time to time as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Midwest edition (or, if not so reported, as reported in such other similar source(s) as the Corporation shall select).

(e)

Release of Claims.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will have no right to receive any payment or benefit described in Subsections 2(c)(i)(C)-(F) or 2(c)(ii)(C)-(F), above, unless and until you execute, and there shall be effective following any statutory period for revocation, a release, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, that irrevocably and unconditionally releases, waives, and fully and forever discharges the Manpower Group and its past and current directors, officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, covenants, rights, demands and damages of any nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, relating to or arising out of your employment with the Manpower Group, including without limitation claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and the Civil Rights Act of 1991, but excluding any claims covered under any applicable workers’ compensation act.

(f)

Forfeiture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, your right to receive the payments and benefits to be provided to you under this Section 2 beyond those described in Subsection 2(a), above, is conditioned upon your performance of the obligations stated in Sections 3-6, below, and upon your breach of any such obligations, you will immediately return to the Corporation the amount of such payments and benefits and you will no longer have any right to receive any such payments or

11
