On December 24, 2012 (the "Effective Date"), Investment Technology Group, Inc. (the "Company") and David J. Stevens entered into a written agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which they mutually agreed that, effective January 31, 2012 (the "Separation Date"), Mr. Stevens resigned as Head of U.S. and Latin America Sales & Trading.
In consideration for Mr. Stevens' execution and non-revocation of the Agreement and agreement to certain restrictive covenants described below, the Company will pay Mr. Stevens the payment and benefits set forth below.
Payment and Benefits. Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Stevens will receive a total payment of Six Hundred Thirty One Thousand Nine Hundred Twelve British Pounds (£631,912) to be paid in six (6) monthly installments following the Separation Date. In addition, the Company will (1) pay Mr. Stevens Two Thousand Five Hundred Twenty Eight British Pounds (£2,528) representing the enrollment cost of a private medical plan in the United Kingdom for 2013 and (2) continue to provide Mr. Stevens with tax preparation services by a Company-designated tax services provider for certain U.S. tax returns.
Subject to Mr. Stevens' compliance with the terms of the Agreement, (i) the outstanding stock units awarded to Mr. Stevens pursuant to the grant notices related to time-based awards dated February 23, 2010, February 25, 2011 and February 23, 2012 (the "Time-based Awards") under the Company's Variable Compensation Stock Unit Award Program Subplan (the "Equity Subplan") and (ii) a portion of the Basic Units (as defined in the Equity Subplan) of the performance-based awards granted to Mr. Stevens on February 23, 2012 under the Equity Subplan (the "Performance-based Awards") will continue to vest as if Mr. Stevens continued in employment with the Company through each applicable vesting date in the case of the Time-based Awards and through February 23, 2014 for the Performance-based Awards. Such awards will be issued to Mr. Stevens in accordance with the terms of the Equity Subplan, provided that he continues to comply with certain provisions in the Agreement. The remaining outstanding stock unit awards related to the performance-based awards granted to Mr. Stevens on February 23, 2012 under the Equity Subplan will be forfeited on the Separation Date.

time from the Effective Date to the date on which all stock unit awards under
the Equity Subplan are issued, (x) solicit or hire any employee, contractor or

Company for which Mr. Stevens provided services or for which he had significant
