(a)           Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b) hereof, any person who is an Employee as of the Enrollment Date of a given Offering Period shall be eligible to participate in the Plan in accordance with Section 5 hereof and shall be granted an option for the Offering Period commencing on such Enrollment Date.

(b)           Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan to the extent that (i) such Employee (or any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Employee), immediately after the option is granted, would own Common Shares and/or hold outstanding options to purchase Common Shares representing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of capital stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary or (ii) such grant would permit such Employee’s right to purchase Common Shares under all employee stock purchase plans of Thomson Reuters to accrue at a rate that exceeds twenty-five thousand U.S. dollars (US$25,000) of Fair Market Value of such Common Shares (determined at the time such option is granted) for any calendar year in which such option would be outstanding.  Any amounts received from an Employee that cannot be used to purchase Common Shares as a result of this limitation shall be returned as soon as reasonably practicable to the Employee without interest.

The Plan shall be implemented by a series of consecutive three-month Offering Periods, with a new Offering Period commencing on the first Trading Day on or after the first day of each calendar quarter (beginning October 1, 2009), or at such other time or times as may be determined by the Administrator, and ending on the last Trading Day on or before the end of each calendar quarter, or at such other time or times as may be determined by the Administrator.  The Plan shall continue until terminated in accordance with Section 18 hereof.  Subject to Section 18 hereof, the Administrator shall have the power to change the duration and/or the frequency of Offering Periods with respect to future offerings and shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Employees of any such change at least five (5) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected.  In no event shall any option granted hereunder be exercisable more than twenty-seven (27) months from its date of grant.

(a)           On each Enrollment Date, the Company shall commence an offering by granting each eligible Employee who has elected to participate in such Offering Period pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof an option to purchase on the Purchase Date of such Offering Period up to a number of Common Shares determined by dividing each Employee’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Purchase Date and credited to the Participant’s account under the Plan as of such Purchase Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(b) and 11 hereof.  Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 7 hereof, unless the Participant has withdrawn his or her payroll deductions pursuant to Section 9.  The option with respect to an Offering Period shall expire on the Purchase Date with respect to such Offering Period or the withdrawal date, if earlier.

(b)           An Employee may (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b)) elect to become a Participant in the Plan by properly enrolling in accordance with such procedures as may be specified by the Company, authorizing the Company or a Designated Subsidiary to make payroll deductions (as set forth in Section 6 hereof) more than five (5) business days prior to the applicable Enrollment Date unless a later time for enrollment is set by the Company or the Administrator for all Employees.  Unless a Participant, by giving written notice (or by such other means or other notice as may from time to time be prescribed by the Administrator) to the Company or a Designated Subsidiary, as applicable, elects not to participate with respect to any subsequent Offering Period, the Participant shall be deemed to have accepted each new offer and to have authorized payroll deductions in respect thereof during each subsequent Offering Period.

(a)           An Employee may, in accordance with rules and procedures adopted by the Administrator and subject to the limitation set forth in Section 3(b) hereof, authorize payroll deductions in amounts which are not less than one percent (1%) and not more than ten percent (10%) of such Employee’s Compensation on each payday occurring during an Offering Period (or such other maximum percentage as the Administrator may establish from time to time before an Offering Period).  Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payroll paid following the Enrollment Date (but if such date is not administratively practicable, by the second payroll paid following the Enrollment Date), and shall end (as is administratively practicable) on the last payroll paid prior to or on the Purchase Date of the Offering Period to which the enrollment is applicable, unless earlier terminated by the Participant’s withdrawal from the Plan or termination of the Participant’s Continuous Status as an Employee as provided in Section 9.  A Participant may decrease (or increase) his or her rate of payroll deductions or may suspend payroll deductions at any such time during an Offering Period as may be determined and communicated to Participants by the Company or the Administrator prior to the commencement of an Offering Period; provided, however, that the Participant shall be required to provide the Administrator with written notice (or such other means or other notice as may from time to time be prescribed by the Administrator) of any such decrease, increase or suspension.  The change in rate or suspension of payroll deductions, as the case may be, shall be effective as soon as administratively possible, but in no event later than the first full payroll period commencing five (5) or more business days after the Administrator’s receipt of notice from the Participant.

(b)           All payroll deductions made by a Participant shall be credited to such Participant’s account under the Plan and shall be withheld in whole percentages only.  A Participant may not make any payments into such account except payments made through payroll deductions as provided in the Plan. Crediting to the Participant’s account shall occur as soon as it is administratively reasonable after the deductions are withheld from the Employee’s Compensation.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 3(b) hereof, a Participant’s rate of payroll deductions may be decreased by the Company to zero percent (0%) at any time during an Offering Period.  Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided for by the Participant as part of his or her enrollment at the beginning of the first Offering Period which is scheduled to commence in the following calendar year, unless a Participant increases or decreases the rate of, or suspends, his or her payroll deductions as provided in Section 6(a) hereof, or terminates his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 9.

Except for Participants who have withdrawn from the Plan as provided in Section 9 hereof, all Participants’ elections to purchase Common Shares shall be exercised automatically on each Purchase Date, and the maximum number of whole Common Shares subject to the option shall be acquired on behalf of and allocated to each Participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated payroll deductions credited to each Participant’s account as of the Purchase Date (subject to such limitations as set forth in the Plan).  No fractional Common Shares may be purchased hereunder but notional fractional Common Shares will be allocated to a Participant’s account.  Any notional fractional Common Shares allocated to a Participant’s account following the purchase of Common Shares on any Purchase Date shall be retained in the Participant’s account to be aggregated with other notional fractional Common Shares on future Purchase Dates, subject to earlier withdrawal by the Pa
