(e) The Board of Directors (the "Board") of IHS Markit Ltd. (the "Company" or "we" or "us" or "our") previously approved, subject to approval by the Company's shareholders, the 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2017 ESPP"). At the Company's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on April 5, 2017, the Company's shareholders approved the 2017 ESPP.
The 2017 ESPP is a broad-based plan that provides employees of the Company and its designated affiliates with the opportunity to become shareholders through periodic payroll deductions that are applied towards the purchase of Company common shares at a discount from the then-current market price. Subject to adjustment in the case of certain capitalization events, a total of 15.0 million common shares of the Company are available for purchase under the 2017 ESPP.
The material terms of the 2017 ESPP were described in the Company's proxy statement dated February 21, 2017 for the Annual Meeting, which was attached as Exhibit 99.1 of the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2017 (the "Proxy Statement"), and the description of the 2017 ESPP included in the Proxy Statement is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 99.1. No other information set forth in such Current Report on Form 8-K or the exhibits thereto shall be incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K. The description of the 2017 ESPP is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2017 ESPP, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1.
