PART II

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference

            The following documents are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:

(a)        Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002;

(b)        Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003;

(c)        Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 29, 2003; and

(d)        The description of the Registrant's common stock contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such subscription.

            All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

            Section 11(a) of the Securities Act provides that if any part of a registration statement at the time it becomes effective contains an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, any person acquiring a security pursuant to such registration statement, unless it is proved that at the time of such acquisition such person knew of such untruth or omission, may sue, among others, every accountant who has consented to be named as having prepared or certified any part of the registration statement or as having prepared or certified any report or valuation which is used in connection with the registration statement with respect to the statement in such registration statement, report or valuation which purports to have been prepared or certified by the accountant. On April 10, 2002, the Registrant announced that it had appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to replace Arthur Andersen LLP as its independent accountants. Prior to the date of this registration statement, the Arthur Andersen LLP partners who reviewed the Registrant's audited financial statements have resigned from Arthur Andersen LLP. As a result, the Registrant has been unable to obtain Arthur Andersen LLP's written consent to the incorporation by reference into this registration statement of its audit reports with respect to the Registrant's financial statements. Arthur Andersen LLP's reports on the financial statements of the Registrant incorporated by reference in this registration statement are copies of such reports and have not been reissued by Arthur Andersen LLP. Under these circumstances, Rule 437a under the Securities Act permits the Registrant to file this registration statement without a written consent from Arthur Andersen LLP. Accordingly, Arthur Andersen LLP will not be liable to you under Section 11(a) of the Securities Act bec ause it has not consented to being named as an expert in the registration statement.

Item 5. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

            Sections 180.0850 to 180.0859 of the Wisconsin Statutes require a corporation to indemnify any director or officer who is a party to any threatened, pending or completed civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit, arbitration or other proceeding, whether formal or informal, which involves foreign, federal, state or local law and which is brought by or in the right of the corporation or by any other person. A corporation's obligation to indemnify any such person includes the obligation to pay any judgment, settlement, penalty, assessment, forfeiture or fine, including any excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan, and all reasonable expenses including fees, costs, charges, disbursements, attorney's and other expenses except in those cases in which liability was incurred as a result of the breach or failure to perform a duty which the director or officer owes to the corporation and the breach or failure to perform constitutes: (i) a willful failure to deal fairly with the corporation or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director or officer has a material conflict of interest; (ii) a violation of criminal law, unless the person has reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; (iii) a transaction from which the person derived an improper personal profit; or (iv) willful misconduct.

            Unless otherwise provided in a corporation's articles of incorporation or by-laws or by written agreement, an officer or director seeking indemnification is entitled to indemnification if approved in any of the following manners: (i) by majority vote of a disinterested quorum of the board of directors, or if such quorum of disinterested directors cannot be obtained, by a majority vote of a committee of two or more disinterested directors; (ii) by independent legal counsel; (iii) by a panel of three arbitrators; (iv) by affirmative vote of shareholders; (v) by a court; or (vi) with respect to any additional right to indemnification granted, by any other method permitted in Section 180.0858 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

            Reasonable expenses incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding may be reimbursed by a corporation at such time as the director or officer furnishes to the corporation written affirmation of his good faith belief that he has not breached or failed to perform his duties and a written undertaking to repay any amounts advanced if it is determined that indemnification by the corporation is not required.

            The indemnification provisions of Sections 180.0850 to 180.0859 are not exclusive. A corporation may expand an officer's or director's right to indemnification (i) in its articles of incorporation or by-laws; (ii) by written agreement between the director or officer and the corporation; (iii) by resolution of its board of directors; or (iv) by resolution of a majority of all of the corporation's voting shares then issued and outstanding.

            As permitted by Section 180.0858, the Company has adopted indemnification provisions in its By-Laws which closely track the statutory indemnification provisions with certain exceptions. In particular, Article VII of the Company's By-Laws provides (i) that an individual shall be indemnified unless it is proven by a final judicial adjudication that indemnification is prohibited, and (ii) payment or reimbursement of expenses, subject to certain limitations, will be mandatory rather than permissive.

            The Company's officers and directors currently are covered by officers' and directors' liability insurance.

Powers of Attorney

Item 9. Undertakings*

            The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(a) (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)

To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

   

(ii)

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;

   

(iii)

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

   
 

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

          (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and each filing of the plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 5 of this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                              
* Paragraphs correspond to Item 512 of Regulation S-K.

of

Manpower Inc.


February 18, 2003


1.    Definitions

Unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:


(a)

An “Election Date” shall mean the date of the Director’s initial appointment to the Board of Directors and thereafter November 5 of any year.

(b)

An “Election Period” shall mean the period beginning November 5, 2001, and ending November 4, 2006, or a subsequent period of five years beginning on the day following the end of the prior Election Period.

(c)

“Option” shall mean a Nonstatutory Stock Option granted under the Equity Plan.

(d)

“Equity Plan” shall mean the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan of the Company.

(e)

“Retirement” shall mean a Director’s termination of membership on the Board of Directors at a time when (1) the Director is age 60 or older and has served at least five years on the Board of Directors, or (2) the Director has served at least ten years on the Board of Directors.

Any capitalized terms used below which are not otherwise defined above will have the meanings assigned to them in the Equity Plan.


2.    Right to Elect Options.

        (a)    Elective Options.  A Director may elect to receive, in lieu of all cash compensation to which he or she would otherwise be entitled as a Director (other than reimbursement for expenses), an Option granted in accordance with the following.  The election shall cover a period of whole years (except as provided below) determined by the Director at the time of election beginning on any Election Date as of which no prior election is in effect under these Terms and Conditions (or similar election under the Procedures Governing the Grant of Options to Non-Employee Directors Under the 1994 Executive Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan of the Company or under the Deferred Stock Plan of the Company), and ending no later than the expiration of the then current Election Period. &nb sp;If the Election Date is other than November 5 of any year, the first year covered by an election shall be a partial year beginning on the Election Date and ending on the next succeeding November 4, and the number of shares covered by the Option for this first partial year shall be prorated (rounded to the nearest whole share) based on the ratio of the number of days in such partial year to 365.  The election to receive an Option in lieu of cash compensa­tion must be made on or before the commencement of the period covered by the election, except that for an election made by a Director in connection with his or her initial appointment to the Board of Directors, the election may be made within the first 10 days following the date of such appointment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Director who is a resident of the United Kingdom shall be eligible to make an election hereunder but rather shall be required to receive an Option in lieu of cash compensation and, as such, treated as i f he or she had made an election covering a period of five years effective beginning on each Election Date as of which no prior election is in effect.  The Option will be for the following number of shares, subject to adjustment pursuant to Paragraph 2(b), below:

Years of Cash

Compensation Waived

Shares Covered

by Option

5

50,000

4

40,000

3

30,000

2

20,000

1

10,000


Said election shall be in writing and delivered to the Secretary of the Company.  The date of grant of the Option shall be the date on which the period covered by the election begins.  The Company shall effect the granting of Options under these Terms and Conditions by the execution of Option Agreements.  Instead of electing to receive an Option in lieu of all cash compensation as provided above, a Director may make such election for only 75 percent or 50 percent of such cash compensation.  In such event, the Option will be for 75 percent or 50 percent, respectively, of the number of shares otherwise provided above, again subject to adjustment pursuant to Paragraph 2(b), below.


        (b)    Adjustment Based on Changes in the Market Price of Shares.  For any Option granted pursuant to Paragraph 2(a) after November 5, 2001, each of the numbers in the schedule in Paragraph 2(a), above, under “Shares Covered by Option” shall be adjusted, in accordance with the following formula, to equal the value of X, where

X  =

Number shown in schedule  x  $28.38


Market Price on the business day immediately proceeding the date of grant


3.    Options:  General Provisions

        (a)    Option Exercise Price.  The per share purchase price of the Shares under each Option granted pursuant to these Terms and Conditions shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value per Share on the date of grant of such Option.  The fair market value per Share on the date of grant shall be the Market Price for the business day immediately preceding the date of grant of such Option.

        (b)    Exercise Period.  The following shall apply for Options granted pursuant to these Terms and Conditions:

(1)  An Option shall not initially be exercisable.  On November 5 of each year following the date of grant of an Option, the Option shall become exercisable as to a number of shares equal to that number attributable to a period of one year under the Option.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if an election covers a partial year as provided in Paragraph 2(a), above, then with respect to the number of shares attributable to that partial year the Option shall become exercisable on the later of the November 5 following the date of grant or the day that is six months after the date of grant, and thereafter the foregoing sentence shall apply to the Option.


(2)  Upon termination of a Director’s tenure as a Director, any portion of an Option which has not become exercisable shall lapse except as follows:


(A)  The Option shall become immediately exercisable as to a prorated number of Shares based on the time served during the one-year period (or partial-year period, if applicable) indicated in Paragraph 3(b)(1), above, in which termination occurs; provided, however, that for this purpose, any Director whose term expires in any year who does not stand for election at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders that year but continues to serve until the date of such meeting will be treated as if he or she had served through November 4 of such year.


(B)  Upon the death or Disability of a Director, each Option of such Director shall become immediately exercisable as to 100% of the Shares covered thereby.


(3)  Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, each Option outstanding under these Terms and Conditions shall become immediately exercisable as to 100% of the Shares covered thereby.


(4)  Once any portion of an Option becomes exercisable, it shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (A) ten years after the date of grant or (B) three years after the date the Director’s membership on the Board of Directors terminates because of death or upon the Disability or Retirement of the Director, or three months after the date the Director’s membership on the Board of Directors terminates in any other circumstances.


4.   Application of Plan.  

Except as otherwise provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Equity Plan shall apply to any Options granted pursuant to these Terms and Conditions.

Ladies and Gentlemen:


We have acted as your counsel in connection with the offer by Manpower Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company”), of up to 4,500,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Shares”).  The Shares are to be issued pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as described in the Plan’s prospectus (the “Prospectus”), including all amendments and supplements thereto, which relates to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about May 13, 2003 (the “Registration Statement”).

We have examined:  (a) the Plan, the Prospectus and the Registration Statement, (b) the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-Laws, each as amended to date, (c) certain resolutions of the Company’s Board of Directors, and (d) such other proceedings, documents and records as we have deemed necessary to enable us to render this opinion.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, subject to Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the Wisconsin Statutes, or any successor provision.  Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the Wisconsin Statutes provides that shareholders of a corporation may be assessed up to the par value of their shares to satisfy the obligations of such corporation to its employees for services rendered, but not exceeding six months service in the case of any individual employee.  Certain Wisconsin courts have interpreted “par value” to mean the full amount paid by the purchaser of shares upon issuance thereof.

We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  In giving this consent, however, we do not admit that we are “experts” within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or within the category of persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of said Act.

Very truly yours,
