DATED 5 October 2016

PARTIES

(2) Xxxxxxx Xxxxx (‘you’).

RECITALS

(A) You are employed by the Company under the terms of a contract of employment dated 1 July 2014 (‘the Contract of Employment’).

(B) Your period of continuous employment with the Company began on 30 September 2013.

(C) Following an agreement between Markit Ltd. (‘Markit’) and IHS, Inc. (‘IHS’), by which Markit and IHS combine in an all-share merger of equals to create a combined entity (‘IHS Markit’) following a period of integration, your role as Head of Group Corporate Strategy will no longer be required and your employment will therefore terminate by reason of redundancy. This Agreement records the terms on which it is agreed that your employment will terminate.

AGREEMENT

1. Termination of employment and directorships

1.1 Your employment with the Company will terminate on 5 October 2016 or such earlier date as the Company may direct (‘the Termination Date’) by reason of redundancy. You shall continue to work as normal, and shall comply with all your ongoing duties as an employee and this shall include working with (and complying with the reasonable directions of) the Company, IHS and IHS Markit to ensure a smooth and orderly handover and transition of your work, and to assist with aspects of the integration of the business of IHS Markit and to manage the completion of any other work or projects that you currently have responsibility for and are asked to assist with during the transitional period between the completion of the merger forming IHS Markit and the Termination Date, up to and including the Termination Date and you will continue to receive your normal salary and benefits up to the Termination Date. However, nothing affects the right of the Company to place you on garden leave at any time and for any period prior to the Termination Date (provided you continue to be paid in accordance with this Agreement and the Contract of Employment).

1.2 With effect from the Termination Date or such earlier date as the Company directs and with your agreement (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld), you shall, in accordance with clause 3.5.2.2 below, resign (without compensation) from all directorships and other offices and positions that you hold in connection with your employment.

1.3 On the Termination Date you shall cease to be entitled to receive any further salary, benefits or other sums (except as set out below). You warrant and represent that (except as set out below):

1.3.1 you have received all salary, benefits and other amounts owing to you up to and including the Termination Date; and

1.3.2 save for the entitlements referred to at clause 2.8 below you do not have, and will not have following the Termination Date, any entitlement under or in connection with any share, share option or similar incentive or reward scheme and that neither the Company nor any Group Company (nor any trustees of any scheme established by the Company or any other Group Company) is or shall be liable to make any payment or provide you with shares or any other benefit under or in connection with any such scheme.

2. The Company’s obligations

Provided you comply in in all material respects with sub-clause 3.5 below and subject to your continued compliance in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall comply with the following provisions.

Payments

2.1 The Company shall pay you, through the normal October payroll, (less UK income tax and National Insurance contributions):

2.1.1 your accrued salary for October up to and including the Termination Date, provided you continue to work as required by clause 1.1; and

2.1.2 a sum in lieu of any accrued untaken holiday as at the Termination Date; and

2.1.3 the sum of £24,615.38 in lieu of your entitlement to four weeks’ notice (‘the Payment in Lieu’); and

2.2 The Company shall pay you, in accordance with its normal procedures, any outstanding expenses reasonably incurred by you in the proper and usual performance of your duties up to and including the Termination Date and claimed by you in accordance with those procedures on or before the Termination Date.

2.3 The Company shall pay to you the total sum of £200,000 which shall be paid in three equal monthly instalments of £66,666.67 (less UK income tax and National Insurance contributions), in accordance with and calculated under clause 9.1.1 of the Contract of Employment (‘the Basic Severance’). The first such monthly instalment of the Basic Severance shall be paid on or before the first working day no less than 28 days after your compliance with clause 3.5 of this Agreement and each subsequent instalment shall be paid monthly thereafter. Each instalment shall be subject always to your continued compliance in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement.

2.4 The Company shall pay to you the total sum of £800,000 which shall be paid in twelve equal monthly instalments of £66,666.67 (less UK income tax and National Insurance contributions), in accordance with and calculated under clause 9.1.2 of the Contract of Employment (‘the Change in Control Severance’). The first such monthly instalment of the Change in Control Severance shall be paid on or before the first working day no less than 28 days after your compliance with clause 3.5 of this Agreement and each subsequent instalment shall be paid monthly thereafter. Each instalment shall be subject always to your continued compliance in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement.

2.5 The Company shall pay you, within thirty days after the Termination Date (by bank credit transfer), the sum of £448,505 in connection with the termination of your employment (‘the Termination Payment’) (less UK income tax only on the excess over £30,000). For the avoidance of doubt, the Termination Payment includes your entitlement to any statutory redundancy payment.

Benefits

2.6 Subject to your ongoing compliance with clause 4, the Company shall (subject to the following provisions), upon written request to the Company’s HR Department, provide your prospective employers with a written reference substantively in the terms set out in Schedule 3, and deal with any oral enquiries to the HR Department in the spirit of that agreed reference. (For the avoidance of doubt, any written reference may be tailored to constitute an appropriate

4

Without prejudice & subject to contract

response to the terms in which the request is expressed, always provided it remains consistent with the terms and spirit of the agreed reference.) The Company may amend the reference (and deal with any oral enquiries relating to that agreed reference) as may be necessary (a) to reflect the discovery of material facts not known to the HR Department at the date of this Agreement; and/or (b) if the reference is being requested in connection with a regulated role, to ensure the Company complies with the duties imposed upon it by the relevant regulatory body and any applicable statute, regulation and regulatory guidance (including but not limited to the Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulatory Authority and the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000).

2.7 The Company shall contribute up to £750 inclusive of VAT and disbursements towards your legal fees for advice given to you in connection with the termination of your employment (including the terms and effect of this Agreement). Such payment shall be made direct to your adviser (as identified in sub-clause 7.1 below) (‘the Adviser’) within thirty days of the Company receiving an invoice addressed to you and marked as payable by the Company.

2.8 The outstanding equity awards that you hold as of the Termination Date (as detailed below) will vest in full as of the Termination Date and any stock options will remain exercisable for a period of 12 months from the Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Markit Limited 2014 Equity Incentive Award Plan, as amended (the ‘2014 Equity Plan’) and the applicable award agreements.

3.2.1 as at the date of this Agreement you are not aware of:

3.2.1.2 any circumstances which may give rise to a dispute regarding your pension rights;

3.2.2 as at the date of this Agreement you do not believe that you have or may have any of the claims identified in Part B of Schedule 2 or any other claims (other than those identified in Part A of Schedule 2, which you have agreed to settle);

3.4 You acknowledge that the terms of clause 3.3 above are fair and reasonable in all the circumstances. You also acknowledge that, whilst the Payment in Lieu, the Basic Severance, the Change in Control Severance and the Termination Payment (‘the Payments’) represent valuable consideration, they do not in any way represent an estimate of the losses the Company or any other Group Company may suffer, or a limit on the damages the Company or any other Group Company may seek to recover or a representation that damages would be an adequate remedy, in the event of a breach of any of the terms of this Agreement (save in respect of a breach of clause 3.5, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 or 5.1.1 of this Agreement only, in respect of

6

This remains without prejudice to the terms of clause 3.3 and the rest of this Agreement).

3.5 You shall:
