(1) Under the terms of the Key Employees' Deferred Compensation Program (the "Program"), the Reporting Person has chosen to make deferrals to an incentive account. These deferrals, plus amounts matched by The Brink's Company ("BCO") and amounts credited for dividend payments, will settle in BCO common stock on a one-for-one basis following the Reporting Person's termination of employment with BCO, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Program.
(2) On the first business day of each month, salary deferred to the Reporting Person's account during the previous month, plus any matching amounts, is converted into Units representing shares of BCO common stock and credited to the Reporting Person's account in accordance with the terms of the Program.
(3) The number of Units credited to the Reporting Person's account on the Transaction Date is based upon a share price of $33.19, which is the average trading price of BCO common stock for the month of April 2011, calculated in accordance with the terms of the Program.
