The Optionee hereby waives any and all rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his office or employment for any reason whatsoever insofar as those rights arise or may arise from his ceasing to have rights under or be entitled to vest in or exercise any Option as a result of such termination. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, the Optionee shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims.

adjustment in the number and kind of Shares and/or the amount of consideration as to which or for which, as the case may be.

Section 4.2 — Partial Exercise

     Any exercisable portion of an Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2; provided, however, that any partial exercise shall be for whole Shares only.

Section 4.3 — Manner of Exercise

     (a) Notice in writing signed by the Optionee or the other person then entitled to exercise the Option or portion thereof, stating that the Option or portion thereof is thereby exercised, such notice complying with all applicable rules established by the Committee and made available to the Optionee (or such other person then entitled to exercise the Option);

     (b) Full payment (in cash, by cheque, electronic transfer, by way of a cashless exercise as approved by the Company, by way of surrender of Shares to the Company, or by a combination thereof) of the Exercise Price for the Shares with respect to which such Option or portion thereof is exercised;

If the Optionee uses the cashless sell-all method of exercise, then no registration is required because no funds are remitted from Colombia and no shares are held abroad.

SPECIAL NOTICE FOR PARTICIPANTS IN DENMARK
EMPLOYER STATEMENT

Pursuant to Section 3(1) of the Act on Stock Options in employment relations (the “Act”), you are entitled to receive the following information regarding the Willis Group Holdings Public Limited Company (the “Company”) offering of share options (“Options”) and restricted share units (“RSUs”) in a separate written statement.

This statement contains information mentioned in the Stock Option Act. Additional terms and conditions of the Options and RSUs are described in the Option and RSU materials, which have been made available to you. In the event of a conflict between a provision contained in this Employer Statement and provisions contained in the Option and RSU materials, this Employer Statement shall prevail. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein, shall have the same meaning as terms defined in the applicable Plan or the Option and/or RSU grant materials.

1. Grant of Options and RSUs

You have been granted Options or RSUs at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.

2. Terms or conditions for grant of a right to future purchase/award of Ordinary Shares

The Options and RSUs are offered at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.

3. Exercise/Vesting Date or Period

Generally, the restrictions on your Options and RSUs will lapse and the Options and RSUs will vest over a period of time and/or on achievement of certain performance criteria, provided that you remain employed by the Company or a subsidiary, unless otherwise affected by the Act. The exact vesting conditions applicable to your award will be set forth in your Option and RSU materials. Your Options are generally exercisable upon vesting and before the Options terminate or expire, except as otherwise provided in the Option materials.

4. Option Price

For Options, the Option Price per Share is a price corresponding to the market value of the Ordinary Shares at the time of grant. For RSUs, provided the nominal value per share has been paid to the Company at the time of vesting, no amount is payable by you upon vesting of your RSUs and the issuance of Ordinary Shares to you in accordance with the vesting terms provided in your RSU materials.

5. Your Rights upon Termination of Employment

Pursuant to the Act, the treatment of your Option and RSU rights upon termination of employment will be determined under Sections 4 and 5 of the Act unless the terms contained in the Option and RSU materials are more favorable to you than Sections 4 and 5 of the Act. If the terms contained in the Option and RSU materials are more favorable to you, then such terms will govern the treatment of your Option and RSU rights upon termination of employment.

6. Financial Aspects of Options and RSUs

The offering of Options and RSUs has no immediate financial consequences for you. The value of the Ordinary Shares you acquire upon exercise of Options or vesting of RSUs are not taken into account when calculating holiday allowances, pension contributions or other statutory consideration calculated on the basis of salary.

Ordinary Shares are financial instruments and investing in stock will always have financial risk. The possibility of profit at the time you sell your Ordinary Shares will not only be dependent on the Company’s financial development, but also on the general development of the stock market, among other things. In addition, in the case of Options, if you exercise your Option and acquire Ordinary Shares, the Shares could decrease in value even below the Option Price.

SÆRLIG MEDDELELSE TIL DELTAGERE I DANMARK
ARBEJDSGIVERERKLÆRING

I henhold til § 3, stk. 1, i lov om brug af køberet eller tegningsret m.v. i ansættelsesforhold (“Aktieoptionsloven”) er du berettiget til i en særskilt skriftlig erklæring at modtage følgende oplysninger om Willis Group Holdings Public Limited Company’s (“Selskabets”) udbud af aktieoptioner (“Optioner”) og betingede aktier (“restricted stock units” eller “RSU’er”).

Denne erklæring indeholder de i Aktieoptionsloven nævnte oplysninger. Yderligere vilkår og betingelser for Optionerne og RSU’erne er beskrevet i det Options- og RSU-materiale, som du har fået udleveret. I tilfælde af uoverensstemmelser mellem en bestemmelse i denne Arbejdsgivererklæring og bestemmelserne i Options- og RSU-materialet har denne Arbejdsgivererklæring forrang. Begreber, der står med stort begyndelsesbogstav i denne Arbejdsgivererklæring, men som ikke er defineret heri, har samme betydning som de begreber, der er defineret i den gældende Ordning eller i Options- og/eller RSU-tildelingsmaterialet.

1. Tildeling af Optioner og RSU’er

Du har fået tildelt Optioner og RSU’er efter Selskabets bestyrelses skøn.

2. Vilkår og betingelser for tildeling af retten til senere at købe/få tildelt Ordinære Aktier

Optionerne og RSU’erne udbydes efter Selskabets bestyrelses frie skøn.

3. Udnyttelses-/modningsdato eller -periode

Efter en vis periode og/eller ved opnåelse af visse performance-kriterier vil restriktionerne på dine Optioner og RSU’er som udgangspunkt bortfalde, og Optionerne og RSU’erne vil modnes. En forudsætning er dog, at du vedbliver med at være ansat i Selskabet eller i et datterselskab, medmindre andet er fastsat i Aktieoptionsloven. De nærmere modningsbetingelser, som gælder for din tildeling, vil fremgå af Options- og RSU-materialet. Dine Optioner kan som udgangspunkt udnyttes, efter at de er modnet, men før de ophører eller udløber, medmindre andet er fastlagt i Optionsmaterialet.

4. Optionskurs

For så vidt angår Optioner, er Optionskursen pr. aktie en kurs, der svarer til markedsværdien af aktierne på tildelingstidspunktet. For så vidt angår RSU’er, forudsat, at den nominelle pålydende værdi pr. aktie er betalt til Selskabet på modningstidspunktet, skal der ikke betales noget beløb ved modningen af dine RSU’er og udstedelsen af Ordinære Aktier til dig i overensstemmelse med modningsbetingelserne i dit RSU-materiale.

5. Din retsstilling i forbindelse med fratræden

I henhold til Aktieoptionsloven vil dine Optioner og RSU’er i tilfælde af din fratræden blive behandlet i overensstemmelse med Aktieoptionslovens §§ 4 og 5, medmindre vilkårene i Options- og RSU-materialet er mere favorable for dig end Aktieoptionslovens §§ 4 og 5. Hvis vilkårene i Options- og RSU-materialet er mere favorable for dig, vil det være disse vilkår, der er gældende for, hvordan dine Options- og RSU-rettigheder vil blive behandlet i forbindelse med din fratræden.

6. Økonomiske aspekter ved Optionerne og RSU’erne

Udbuddet af Optioner og RSU’er har ingen umiddelbare økonomiske konsekvenser for dig. Værdien af de Ordinære Aktier, som du erhverver ved udnyttelsen af Optionerne eller ved modningen af RSU’erne, indgår ikke i beregningen af feriepenge, pensionsbidrag eller øvrige vederlagsafhængige, lovpligtige ydelser.

Ordinære Aktier er finansielle instrumenter, og investering i aktier vil altid være forbundet med en økonomisk risiko. Muligheden for en gevinst på det tidspunkt, hvor du sælger dine Ordinære Aktier, afhænger ikke kun af Selskabets økonomiske udvikling, men også bl.a. af den generelle udvikling på aktiemarkedet. For så vidt angår Optioner, kan det desuden tilføjes, at såfremt du udnytter din Option og køber Ordinære Aktier, kan Aktierne falde til en værdi, der måske endda ligger under Optionskursen.

Securities Law Information

The Optionee should be aware of the Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option. In particular, the Optionee may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions if the Optionee has inside information about the Company.

Under Article 5:56 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “insider information” related to an issuing company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the Netherlands. “Inside information” is defined as knowledge of specific information concerning the issuing company to which the securities relate or the trade in securities issued by such company, which has not been made public and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the share price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be any employee of a Subsidiary in the Netherlands who has inside information as described herein.

Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain employees working at a Subsidiary in the Netherlands may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in the Netherlands at a time when the Optionee has such inside information.

If the Optionee is uncertain whether the insider-trading rules apply to him or her, the Optionee should consult his or her personal legal advisor.

Nature of Grant

In accepting the Option, the Optionee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Optionee understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Option, except as provided for in Section 3.1 of the Agreement, the termination of the Optionee’s employment for any reason (including for the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the loss of the Option that may have been granted to the Optionee and that have not vested and become exercisable on the date of termination.

In particular, the Optionee understands and agrees that any unvested Options as of Optionee’s termination date and any vested Options not exercised within the period set forth in the Agreement following Optionee’s termination date will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount as indemnification in the event of a termination by reason of, including, but not limited to: resignation, retirement, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective layoff on objective grounds, whether adjudged to be with cause or adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer, and under Article 10.3 of Royal Decree 1382/1985.

Furthermore, the Optionee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant the Option under the Plan to individuals who may be employees

of the Company or a Subsidiary. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or its Subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Optionee understands that the Option is granted on the assumption and condition that the Option and the Shares issued upon exercise shall not become a part of any employment or contract (either with the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Optionee understands that the grant of the Option would not be made to the Optionee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Optionee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant to the Optionee of an Option shall be null and void.

Terms and Conditions

Tax Withholding Obligations

The following provisions supplement Section 4.3 of the Agreement:

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Optionee shall pay or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Optionee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following (1) withholding from the Optionee’s wages or other cash compensation payable to the Optionee by the Company, the Employer, or any Subsidiary at any time; or (2) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired at exercise of the Option either through a voluntary broker-dealer sale or through a mandatory broker-dealer sale arranged by the Company (on the Optionee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or (3) payment directly from the Optionee by cheque or cleared funds.

The Optionee agrees that if he or she does not pay or the Employer or the Company does not withhold from the Optionee the full amount of Tax-Related Items that the Optionee owes at exercise of the Option, or the release or assignment of the Option for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Option (the “Taxable Event”), within 90 days after the Taxable Event or such other period specified in section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003, then the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by the Optionee to the Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. The Optionee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) and will be immediately due and repayable by the Optionee, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to the Optionee by the Employer, by withholding in Shares issued upon exercise of the Option or from the cash proceeds from the sale of Shares or by demanding cash or a check from the Optionee. The Optionee also authorizes the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares unless and until the loan is repaid in full.

The Optionee acknowledges that the Company or the Employer may recover any such additional income tax and NICs at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Section 4.3(d) of the Agreement, although the Optionee acknowledges that the Optionee ultimately will be responsible for reporting any income tax or National Insurance Contributions (“NICs”) due on

this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.

If the Optionee is a U.K. tax resident, the grant of this Option is conditional upon the Optionee hereby agreeing to accept any liability for any employer National Insurance contributions (“Employer NICs”) which may be payable by the Employer in connection with the exercise, assignment, release or cancellation of any Option. The Employer NICs may be collected by the Company or the Employer using any of the methods described in Section 4 of the Agreement. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Optionee agrees to execute a joint election with the Company and/or the Employer (“Election”), the form of such Election being formally approved by HMRC, and any other consent or elections required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer NICs to the Optionee. The Optionee further agrees to execute such other joint elections as may be required between the Optionee and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer. If the Optionee does not make an Election prior to the exercise of the Option or if approval to the Election is withdrawn by HMRC and a new Election is not entered into, without any liability to the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary, the Option shall become null and void without any liability to the Company and/or the Employer and may not be exercised by the Optionee.
