Re: Modification of Employment Agreement
Dear Xxxxx:
Reference is made to the Employment Agreement dated as of January 28, 2007 (as subsequently
amended and in effect on the date hereof, the “Existing Agreement”) between you and The TJX
Companies, Inc. (the “Company”). The Existing Agreement and the period of your employment by the
Company under the Existing Agreement are scheduled to expire on January 31, 2009 (the “End Date”)
except as otherwise mutually agreed by you and the Company. The Company and you are presently
engaged in a discussion of a new or extended employment agreement. As a result, we both agree that
Section 1 of the Existing Agreement shall be amended so that “End Date” shall mean April 1, 2009.
If you agree with the foregoing, please so indicate by signing the enclosed copy of this
letter agreement and returning it to Xx. Xxxx Xxxxxx, whereupon this letter agreement will take
immediate effect as of the date first set forth above. This letter agreement shall constitute an
agreement under seal.
