Email to all Watson Wyatt Employees:

 

I am pleased to let you know that yesterday afternoon the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that was filed in connection with the merger.  Mailing of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to our shareholders commenced yesterday.   This is the second major regulatory hurdle that has been cleared.  The Watson Wyatt shareholder meeting is scheduled for Friday December 18, 2009; Towers Perrin will hold their shareholders meeting on the same date.

 

If each company obtains the requisite shareholder vote, and we receive approval from the European Commission by that time, we would anticipate closing shortly after the shareholder meetings, subject to satisfaction of the other closing conditions contained in the merger agreement.
