2. COMMENCEMENT AND TITLE

The Plan shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall be known as The Markit 2006 Additional Share Option Plan.

3. THE GRANT OF OPTIONS

3.1 The Board may grant Options to an Eligible Participant to acquire Shares subject to (i) the Company having received from each such Eligible Participant a fully signed and dated original of the power of attorney in the form attached to these rules as Appendix B hereto

4

and (ii) the rules of this Plan including the Vesting Schedule and such other objective terms or conditions as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine. Options may be granted only to such Eligible Participants as the Board shall in its absolute discretion select. No Eligible Participant shall be entitled as of right to participate. The extent of any grant of Options shall be determined by the Board in its absolute discretion.

3.2 The Board, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either (a) granting an Option under the Plan in substitution of such other company’s award, or (b) assuming such award as if it had been granted under the Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Option granted under the Plan. Such substitution or assumption shall be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Option under the Plan if the other company had applied the rules of the Plan to such grant. In the event the Board authorizes the Company to assume an award granted by another company, the terms and conditions of such award shall remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise of any such option will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Board elects to grant a new Option rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price.

3.3 No consideration shall be payable for the grant of an Option. The Board shall grant Options by deed in such form as the Board shall decide. A single deed of grant may be executed in favour of any number of Participants. Each Participant shall on, or as soon as possible after, the Date of Grant be issued with a certificate as evidence of the grant of an Option.

3.4 The aggregate number of Shares that may be issued or used for reference purposes under this Plan shall not exceed 300,000 Shares (subject to any increase or decrease pursuant to Rule 8.1 of the Plan). If any Option granted under this Plan expires, terminates or is cancelled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Shares underlying any unexercised Option shall again be available for the purpose of Options under the Plan.

3.5 The Board shall have authority to determine whether an Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option, provided that an Eligible Participant who is a director is not eligible to be granted an Incentive Stock Option; and, provided, further, only Eligible Participants who are employees of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent are eligible to be granted Incentive Stock Options.

4. THE EXERCISE PRICE

4.1 Save as otherwise determined by the Board in its absolute discretion no later than the Date of Grant, the Exercise Price of an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant; and provided, further, that if an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder, the Exercise Price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant.

4.2 The Exercise Price is subject to adjustment in accordance with Rule 8.

5. NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF OPTIONS

No Option granted to an Eligible Participant under the Plan shall be capable of being transferred by him or his personal representative(s) or of being mortgaged, pledged or encumbered in any way whatsoever. In the event of any breach or purported breach of this provision the Option shall lapse forthwith. This Rule 5 shall not prevent the personal

5

representative(s) of a deceased Participant from exercising the Option in accordance with the Rules.

6. WHEN OPTIONS MAY BE EXERCISED

6.1 Subject to Rule 9, a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that it has vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule.

6.2 A Subsisting Option, whenever granted, shall lapse and cease to be exercisable upon the earliest to happen of the following:

(a) the fifth anniversary of its Date of Grant with respect to an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder, or as otherwise may be decided by the Board;

(b) the first anniversary of the date of death of the Participant;

(c) the date upon which the Participant becomes a Departing Employee in circumstances where the Participant is a Bad Leaver;

(d) three months from the date on which a Participant becomes a Departing Employee in respect of the element of the Subsisting Option which has vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule and immediately on the date on which the Participant becomes a Departing Employee in respect of any element of the Subsisting Option which has not vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule on such date; and

(e) the expiry of the periods mentioned in Rule 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 and 9.5.

7. MANNER OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

7.1 Subject to Rule 7.2, an Option shall be exercised by the Participant lodging with the Secretary of the Company at its registered office (or otherwise as may be notified to Participants from time to time):

(a) an option certificate in respect of the Option to be exercised;

(b) a notice of exercise in such form as the Board may from time to time prescribe, duly executed in accordance with the instructions in such notice;

(c) payment (in such manner as the Board shall direct) of a sum equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares in relation to which the Option is then being exercised, together with an amount equal to that required to be paid pursuant to Rule 7.2(b) below; and

(d) in respect of an exercise of an Option in the circumstances set out in Rule 9.1, a duly executed power of attorney in the form provided by the Company on grant of the Option appointing the Company as the Participant’s attorney to execute documents on behalf of the Participant to give effect to the transfer of the Shares the Participant would hold following the exercise of such Option. PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT if the relevant Qualifying Proposed Sale has not completed within 60 days of the date on which the Drag Along Notice is delivered to the Company pursuant to Article 14.1 or the date on which a copy of the relevant offer to the Participants pursuant to Article 14.2(d) is delivered to the Company, as the case may be, then the Company shall return to the Participants the documents referred to in Rules 7.1(a) and (b) and the payment referred to in Rule 7.1(c) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Option shall be deemed not to have been exercised.

6

7.2 The exercise of an Option by a Participant under Rule 7.1 shall be conditional upon:

(a) agreement being reached between the Company and the Participant as to the amount, or their best estimate of the amount, of the Option Tax Liability; and

(b) payment of the estimate or amount of the Option Tax Liability or arrangements which are satisfactory to the Company for the payment by the Participant of the Option Tax Liability whether in cash or by deduction from cash payments otherwise to be made to the Participant or by the withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant on the exercise of the Option equal in value to the amount of the Option Tax Liability; and

(c) (if not already a party to the Shareholders’ Agreement) execution by the Participant of a Deed of Adherence and agreement by the Participant that he shall take the Shares subject to the Shareholders’ Agreement and Memorandum of Association of the Company and the Articles.

7.3 Subject to the obtaining of any necessary regulatory consents, the Board shall within 30 days of the exercise of any Option cause the Company to allot and issue or procure the transfer of the relevant Shares and send or cause to be sent to the Participant who has exercised the Option a share certificate for the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised provided such allotment or transfer is lawful.

7.4 Shares issued pursuant to the Plan will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares then already in issue except that they and any Shares transferred pursuant to the Plan will not rank for any dividend or other distribution of the Company paid or made by reference to a record date falling prior to the date of exercise of the relevant Option.

7.5 The Company shall maintain sufficient unissued share capital to satisfy all rights to subscribe for Shares from time to time under Subsisting Options.

8. ALTERATIONS OF SHARE CAPITAL

8.1 In the event of any variation in the share capital of the Company by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves or by way of rights or any consolidation or sub-division or reduction of capital or otherwise, then the number and the nominal value of Shares subject to any Subsisting Options, the Exercise Price and, where an Option has been exercised but as at the date of the variation of capital referred to above no Shares have been allotted or transferred pursuant to such exercise, the number of Shares which may be so allotted or transferred and the price at which they may be acquired, may be adjusted by the Board in such manner and with effect from such date as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine to be appropriate.

8.2 No adjustment under Rule 8.1 shall be made which would reduce the Exercise Price of any Option to subscribe for Shares below the nominal value of a Share unless and to the extent that:

(a) the Board is authorised to capitalise from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the amount by which the nominal value of the Shares subject to the Option exceeds the aggregate adjusted Exercise Price; and

(b) the Board shall resolve to capitalise and apply such sum on exercise of that Option.

8.3 The Board shall notify Participants in such manner as it thinks fit of any adjustment made under Rule 8.1 and may call in, cancel, endorse, issue or re-issue any option certificate as a result of any such adjustment.

7

9. SALE, FLOTATION AND LIQUIDATION

9.1 In the event of a Qualifying Proposed Sale a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable in full (but only to the extent that the Option has not lapsed) from the date on which either (a) the Drag Along Notice is delivered to the Company pursuant to Article 14.1 (in the case of a proposed sale by Initiating Shareholders to a third party in accordance with Article 14.1) or (b) a copy of the offer(s) to the Participants pursuant to Article 14.2(d) is delivered to the Company pursuant to such Article (in the case of a sale to a third party purchaser in accordance with Article 14.2) until completion of the relevant sale under (a) or (b) above (as the case may be).

9.2 Upon receipt by the Company of a Drag Along Notice pursuant to Article 14.1(b) or a copy of the offer(s) to the Participants pursuant to Article 14.2(d), the Company shall use all reasonable endeavours as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter to notify the Participants of the details of:

The Participants shall be Non-Initiating Shareholders (as defined in the Articles) and shall be bound to transfer their Shares to the proposed transferee as provided for in Article 14.1 if they exercise their Options pursuant to Rule 9.1. The proposed transferee shall be entitled to enforce this right or benefit against the Participants in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 provided that no amendment, variation or termination of the Plan (whether or not affecting such right or benefit) shall require the consent of the transferee nor shall such transferee be entitled to veto any amendment, variation or termination of the Plan.

9.3 If the Court sanctions a compromise or arrangement under section 425 of the Companies Act 1985 in respect of the Company (other than for the purpose of a restructuring), any Subsisting Option may (notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan) be exercised in full (but only to the extent that the Option has not lapsed) within 60 days of the Court sanctioning the compromise or arrangement, provided that the notice of exercise given in accordance with Rule 7.1(b) has been received by the Company within 30 days of the Court’s sanction.

9.4 If any person becomes bound or entitled to acquire shares in the Company under sections 428 to 430F of the Companies Act 1985, any Subsisting Option may (notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan) be exercised in full (but only to the extent that the Option has not lapsed) at any time when that person remains so bound or entitled.

9.5 If the Company passes a resolution for voluntary winding-up, any Subsisting Option may (notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan) be exercised in full (but only to the extent that the Option has not lapsed) within one month of the passing of the resolution.

10.4 No Participant shall be entitled to claim compensation from any Member of the Group in respect of any sums paid by him pursuant to the Plan or for any diminution or extinction of his rights or benefits (actual or otherwise) under any Option held by him consequent upon the lapse for any reason of any Option held by him or otherwise in connection with the Plan and each Member of the Group shall be entirely free to conduct its affairs as it sees fit without regard to any consequences under, upon or in relation to the Plan or any Option or Participant.

11. ADMINISTRATION AND AMENDMENT

11.1 The Plan shall be administered under the direction of the Board who may at any time and from time to time by resolution and without other formality delete, amend or add to the Rules of the Plan in any respect provided that no deletion, amendment or addition shall operate to affect adversely in any way any rights already acquired by a Participant under the Plan without the approval such number the affected Participants as would be required to amend the Articles with respect to the terms of the Shares on the assumption that the affected Participants constitute the sole shareholders of the Company.

10

until three months prior to the date of exercise thereof (or such other period as required by applicable law), such Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

APPENDIX B

POWER OF ATTORNEY

WHEREAS the Principal (as defined below) has been granted an option (the “Option”) to acquire C Ordinary Shares (the “Shares”) in Markit Group Limited (the “Company”) subject to the terms of the Markit 2006 Additional Share Option Plan (the “Plan”), and terms and expressions used in this power of attorney shall have the same meaning as those defined in the rules of the Plan and/or the Articles of Association of the Company.

BY THIS POWER OF ATTORNEY made on the date set out below, the undersigned (the “Principal”) hereby appoints with effect from the Effective Date (as defined below) any director or the company secretary of the Company (each an “Attorney”) whose registered address is 10 Bricket Road, St. Albans Herts AL1 3JX as his attorney in the Principal’s name or otherwise and on his behalf and in connection with a Relevant Sale (as defined below) hereby:

AUTHORITY

1. (a) authorises and directs the Attorney to exercise the Option on his behalf to acquire the maximum number of Shares attainable under the Option within the period during which the Option remains exercisable in accordance with Rule 9.1 of the Plan;

(b) in the case of a proposed sale pursuant to Article 14.1, authorises and directs the Attorney to procure the transfer on his behalf of the Shares acquired on exercise of the Option to the third party purchaser and to do all things necessary to effect such transfer including the execution of any necessary documents on his behalf;

(c) in the case of a proposed sale under Article 14.2, authorises and directs the Attorney to accept the offer made by the third party purchaser on his behalf in respect of the Shares to be acquired on exercise of the Option and to procure the transfer on his behalf of such Shares to the third party purchaser and to do all things necessary to effect acceptance of the offer and such transfer, including the execution of any necessary documents on his behalf;

(d) authorises and directs that all sale proceeds (the “Sale Proceeds”) received in respect of the sale of the Shares in accordance with (b) or (c) above be paid to the Company or such other person as the Attorney shall see fit to be held by such person as the Principal’s agent and that the Sale Proceeds shall be paid to the Principal as soon as is reasonably practicable following deduction of the amounts specified in (e) and (f) below;

(e) authorises and directs the Attorney to procure that the aggregate Exercise Price payable in respect of the exercise of his Option is deducted from the Sale Proceeds, which the Principal hereby irrevocably undertakes to pay; and

(f) authorises and directs the Attorney to procure that the Option Tax Liability as defined in the Plan (if any) which arises in respect of the exercise of his Option is deducted from the Sale Proceeds; and

2. authorises and directs the Attorney to take any steps or do anything which the Attorney in its absolute discretion considers desirable in connection with the exercise of the Option or the implementation and/or execution of documents relating thereto in connection with, and conditional on completion of the Relevant Sale.

This power of attorney shall become effective immediately upon the date (the “Effective Date”) on which the Company receives either a Drag Along Notice pursuant to Article 14.1(b) or a copy
