Indemnification
of Directors and Officers.
Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation)
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses
3
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Subsection (b) of Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth
above, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or
suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no
indemnification may be made in respect to any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which
such action or suit was brought shall determine that despite the adjudication
of liability such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for
such expenses which the court shall deem proper.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law further provides
that to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has
been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in
subsections (a) and (b) or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith; that
indemnification or advancement of expenses provided for by Section 145 shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may
be entitled; and empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against any
liability asserted against him or incurred by him in any such capacity or
arising out of his status as such whether or not the corporation would have the
power to indemnify him against such liabilities under Section 145.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director
shall be personally liable to Watson Wyatt & Company Holdings or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
except for liability:
•
for
any breach of that director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its
stockholders;
•
for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or
a knowing violation of law;
•
under
Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or
•
for
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
4
The Company's Bylaws provide that we must indemnify any persons against
any liability incurred in connection with any proceeding in which they may be
involved as a party or otherwise, by reason of the fact that they are or were a
legal representative, director or officer of Watson Wyatt & Company
Holdings or are or were a director or officer serving at the request of Watson
Wyatt & Company Holdings as a director, manager, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability
company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, to the fullest extent
authorized by the laws of Delaware. 
Watson Wyatt & Company Holdings may, by action of the board of
directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of Watson Wyatt
& Company Holdings with the same effect. 
Such indemnification may include advances of expenses prior to the final
disposition of such proceeding.
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of
its directors and with its officers who are subject to
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Section 16
officers").  Under the agreements, the Company will: (1) indemnify
directors and Section 16 officers to the fullest extent permitted by the
Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions, for
liabilities and expenses incurred in various legal proceedings in which they
are involved by reason of their service as directors or officers; and
(2) pay expenses of defense as they are incurred by directors and Section 16
officers.  The agreements also contain procedures for authorizing payment
of indemnification and expenses, as well as other terms regarding the process
of obtaining indemnification and expenses.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
1.
The
undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
(a)
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 this 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
6
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 percent change in the
maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect
to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration
Statement.
provided,
however
, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) above do not apply if
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities
and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 and Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
in the registration statement.
(b)
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.
(c)
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(d)
That,
for 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, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
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.
(e)
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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the 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
7
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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act,
the Company certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this
Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
duly authorized, in Arlington, Virginia, on this 16th day of December, 2005.
