The close of business on March 15, 2007 has been fixed as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual meeting, and only shareholders of record at the close of business on that date will be entitled to vote at the meeting and any adjournment thereof. On March 15, 2007, the Company had outstanding 48,499,053 shares of Brink’s Common Stock, the holders thereof being entitled to one vote per share on all matters that the Board of Directors knows will be presented for consideration at the annual meeting.

This proxy statement and the accompanying form of proxy and Annual Report to Shareholders are being mailed to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 15, 2007, commencing on or about March 23, 2007.

The shares of Brink’s Common Stock represented by proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors on these matters unless otherwise specified in the proxy, and where the person solicited specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares of Brink’s Common Stock will be voted in accordance with the specification so made.

The enclosed proxy is revocable at any time prior to its being voted by filing an instrument of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later time. A proxy may also be revoked by attendance at the annual meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the annual meeting will not by itself constitute a revocation.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has the responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and for the overall performance of the Company, exercising its good faith business judgment of the best interests of the Company. Members of the Board are kept informed of the Company’s business by various reports sent to them regularly, as well as by operating and financial reports made at Board and Committee meetings by the President and Chief Executive Officer and other officers and members of management. During 2006, the Board met ten times.

Executive Sessions of the Board of Directors

The non-management members of the Board of Directors meet regularly without management present. The Board of Directors has determined, as provided in the Company’s Corporate Governance Policies, that there is no need to designate a lead outside director to chair their executive sessions. Each executive session, or portion thereof, is chaired by the chairman of the committee that has primary responsibility over the matter under discussion.

Director Attendance at Meetings

During 2006, all incumbent directors, other than Mr. Hudson who was appointed as a director in February 2007, attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the committees of the Board on which they served.

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting

The Company has no formal policy with regard to Board members’ attendance at annual meetings. Ten of the eleven directors then in office attended the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders.

Board Independence

For a director to be deemed “independent”, the Board of Directors of the Company must affirmatively determine, in accordance with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, that the director has no material relationship with the Company, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company. In making this determination, the Board of Directors has adopted the following categorical standards as part of its Corporate Governance Policies:

1. A director who is, or has been within the last three years, an employee of the Company, or whose immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, an executive officer of the Company, is not independent. Employment as an interim Chairman, Chief Executive Officer or other executive officer will not disqualify a director from being considered independent following such employment.

2. A director who has received, or who has an immediate family member serving as an executive officer who has received, during any twelve-month period within the last three years, more than $100,000 in direct compensation from the Company (excluding director and committee fees and pensions or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service, provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service), is not independent. Compensation received by a director for former service as an interim Chairman, Chief Executive Officer or other executive officer will not count toward the $100,000 limitation.

3. (A) A director who is, or whose immediate family member is, a current partner of a firm that is the Company’s internal or external auditor; (B) a director who is a current employee of such a firm; (C) a director who has an immediate family member who is a current employee of such a firm and who participates in the firm’s audit, assurance or tax compliance (but not tax planning) practice; or (D) a director who was, or whose immediate family member was, within the last three years (but is no longer) a partner or employee of such a firm and personally worked on the Company’s audit within that time, in any such instance ((A)-(D)) is not independent.

4. A director who is, or has been within the last three years, or whose immediate family member is, or has been within the last three years, employed as an executive officer of another company where any of the Company’s present executive officers at the same time serves or served on that company’s compensation committee, is not independent.

5. A director who is a current employee, or whose immediate family member is a current executive officer, of a company that has made payments to, or received payments from, the Company for property or services in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the greater of $1 million, or 2% of such other company’s consolidated gross revenues, is not independent.

2

The Board of Directors of the Company has affirmatively determined that Mr. Smart, a nominee for election to the Board of Directors, and all of the members of the Board of Directors, except Mr. Dan, are independent under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and the categorical standards described above.

Audit and Ethics Committee

The Audit and Ethics Committee (the “Audit Committee”), established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), operates under a written charter, which is available as described under “Other Information—Availability of Documents”. The Audit Committee oversees the integrity of regular financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the public, recommends the selection by shareholders at their annual meeting of an independent registered public accounting firm, confers with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to review the plan and scope of their proposed audit as well as their findings and recommendations upon the completion of the audit, and meets with the independent registered public accounting firm and with appropriate Company financial personnel and internal auditors regarding the Company’s internal controls, practices and procedures. The Audit Committee also oversees the Company’s legal and business ethics compliance programs. The Audit Committee currently consists of Mr. Brinzo, as Chairman, and Messrs. Breslawsky, Martin and Mosner. The Board has examined the composition of the Audit Committee and found the members to meet the independence requirements set forth in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and in accordance with the Audit Committee charter. The Board of Directors has identified Messrs. Brinzo, Breslawsky, Martin and Mosner as “audit committee financial experts” as that term is defined in the rules promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Board of Directors has also determined that each of the members of the Audit Committee is financially literate and has accounting or related financial management expertise as such terms are interpreted by the Board of Directors in its business judgment. None of the Company’s Audit Committee members simultaneously serve on more than two other public company audit committees. The Audit Committee met ten times during 2006.

The Audit Committee has adopted procedures for pre-approving certain specific audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. The pre-approved services are described in detail under three categories: audit and audit-related, tax services and agreed upon procedures. Requests for services are reviewed by the Company’s Legal Department and Finance Department to ensure that they satisfy the requirements of the pre-approval policy. The Audit Committee is provided a detailed update of these audit and non-audit engagements at each regular meeting.

The Audit Committee reviews and approves all transactions between the Company and any related person that are required to be disclosed pursuant to SEC Regulation S-K, Item 404 and reviews any disclosures required by Item 404.

Compensation and Benefits Committee

The Compensation and Benefits Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) operates under a written charter, which is available as described under “Other Information—Availability of Documents”. The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and reviewing policies governing salaries and benefits, annual performance awards, incentive compensation and the terms and conditions of employment for Mr. Dan and each of the other named executive officers. For a further discussion of the Compensation Committee, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Process for Setting Executive Compensation”. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Mr. Broadhead, as Chairman, and Messrs. Ackerman, Sloane and Turner. The Board has examined the composition of the Compensation Committee and found the members to meet the independence requirements set forth in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and in accordance with the Compensation Committee charter. The members of the Compensation Committee are “non-employee directors” (within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) and “outside directors” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code). The Compensation Committee met four times during 2006.

Corporate Governance, Nominating and Management Development Committee

The Corporate Governance, Nominating and Management Development Committee, which was known as the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee until July 2006 (the “Corporate Governance Committee”), operates under a written charter, which is available as described under “Other Information—Availability of Documents”. The Corporate Governance Committee oversees the governance of the Company and recommends to the Board nominees for election as directors and as senior executive officers of the Company, as well as reviewing the performance of incumbent directors in determining whether to recommend them to the Board for renomination. The Corporate Governance Committee currently consists of Mr. Breslawsky, as Chairman, Mrs. Alewine and Messrs. Broadhead and Turner. The Board has examined the composition of the Corporate Governance Committee and found the members to meet the independence requirements set forth in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and in accordance with the Corporate Governance Committee charter. The Corporate Governance Committee met five times during 2006.

Director Compensation

It is the responsibility of the Corporate Governance Committee to recommend to the Board any changes in Board compensation. The Board makes the final determination with respect to Board compensation. The Corporate Governance Committee will consider whether directors’ independence may be jeopardized if director compensation and perquisites exceed customary levels, if the Company makes substantial charitable contributions to organizations with which a director is affiliated, or if the Company enters into consulting contracts with (or provides other indirect forms of compensation to) a director or an organization with which the director is affiliated. The Corporate Governance Committee reviews Board compensation annually. The Company’s Human Resources Department provides support to the Corporate Governance Committee in this review process. In addition, the Company currently engages Towers Perrin as the Company’s director compensation consultant to provide an annual report to the Corporate Governance Committee. Towers Perrin evaluates each of the Board compensation components against director compensation practices of peer companies, provides information on director compensation trends and includes advice regarding potential changes to director compensation. Based on the results of a review performed in July 2006, the Corporate Governance Committee decided not to recommend any changes to Board compensation, and the Board made no changes to Board compensation in 2006. For a further discussion of the elements of the compensation of the Board, see “Director Compensation”.

Finance and Pension Committee

The Finance Committee and the Pension Committee were combined, effective July 2006. The Finance and Pension Committee recommends to the Board dividend and other actions and policies regarding the financial affairs of the Company and is responsible for oversight of the Company’s Pension-Retirement Plan and 401(k) Plan and any similar plans that may be maintained from time to time by the Company. The Finance and Pension Committee also has general oversight responsibility for pension plans maintained by foreign and other subsidiaries of the Company. The Finance and Pension Committee has authority to adopt amendments to the Company’s Pension-Retirement Plan, Pension Equalization Plan and 401(k) Plan. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Finance and Pension Committee coordinates with the appropriate financial, legal and administrative personnel of the Company, including the Company’s Administrative Committee (a committee of senior management with shared responsibility over certain of the Company’s retirement plans), as well as outside experts retained in connection with the administration of those plans. The Finance and Pension Committee currently consists of Mrs. Alewine, as Chairwoman, and Messrs. Ackerman, Barker, Brinzo and Hudson, none of whom is an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Prior to the combining of the Finance Committee and the Pension Committee in July 2006, the Finance Committee had met twice during 2006 and the Pension Committee had met once during 2006. The Finance and Pension Committee met three times during 2006.

4

Strategy Committee

The Strategy Committee was formed in July 2006. The Strategy Committee currently consists of Mr. Sloane, as Chairman, and Messrs. Barker, Hudson, Martin and Mosner, none of whom is an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Strategy Committee met once during 2006.

Executive Committee

The Executive Committee of the Board may exercise substantially all the authority of the Board during the intervals between the meetings of the Board. The Executive Committee currently consists of Mr. Dan, as Chairman, and all other directors, except that a quorum of the Executive Committee consists of one-third of the number of members of the Executive Committee, three of whom must not be employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Executive Committee met once during 2006.

Director Nominating Process

The Company’s Corporate Governance Policies contain information concerning the responsibilities of the Corporate Governance Committee with respect to identifying and evaluating director candidates. Both the Corporate Governance Committee Charter and the Corporate Governance Policies are available as described under “Other Information—Availability of Documents”.

The Corporate Governance Committee’s charter provides that the Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidate recommendations by shareholders. Shareholders should submit any such recommendations for the Corporate Governance Committee through the method described below under “Communications with Non-Management Members of the Board of Directors”. In accordance with the Company’s bylaws, any shareholder of record entitled to vote for the election of directors at the applicable meeting of shareholders may nominate persons for election to the Board of Directors, if such shareholder complies with the notice procedures set forth in the bylaws and summarized in the section of this proxy statement entitled “Other Information—Shareholder Proposals”.

The Corporate Governance Committee evaluates all director candidates in accordance with the director membership criteria described in the Corporate Governance Policies. The Corporate Governance Committee evaluates any candidate’s qualifications to serve as a member of the Board based on the skills and characteristics of individual Board members as well as the composition of the Board as a whole. In addition, the Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate a candidate’s business experience, diversity, international background, the number of other directorships held and leadership capabilities, along with any other skills or experience which would be of assistance to management in operating the Company’s business.

The Corporate Governance Committee employs several methods for identifying and evaluating director nominees. The Corporate Governance Committee periodically assesses whether any vacancies on the Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise and, in the event that vacancies are anticipated, the Committee considers possible director candidates. The Corporate Governance Committee has used professional search firms to identify candidates based upon the director membership criteria described in the Corporate Governance Policies.

Mr. Timothy Smart, who is a nominee for election to the Board of Directors, was included in a list of director candidates identified by a professional search firm. Based on the evaluations performed by the search firm and its own review of possible candidates, the Corporate Governance Committee recommended Mr. Smart’s election as a director and his inclusion on the proxy card.

On November 21, 2006, Pirate Capital LLC sent a letter to the Board of Directors of the Company encouraging, among other things, the immediate appointment of Thomas R. Hudson Jr. to the Board of Directors. On January 4, 2007, Pirate Capital provided public notice to the Company of its intent to nominate Thomas R. Hudson Jr. and Christopher Kelly to the Company’s Board of Directors at the Company’s 2007 annual meeting of shareholders. On February 8, 2007, the Company and Pirate Capital entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which Thomas R. Hudson Jr. was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors and has been nominated and recommended by the Board for election as

5

a director of the Company at the Company’s 2007 annual meeting of shareholders and included on the proxy card. Mr. Hudson was also appointed to the Strategy Committee, the Finance and Pension Committee and the Executive Committee, and the Company agreed to reimburse Pirate Capital for its expenses incurred in connection with its shareholder proposals. Pirate Capital agreed to withdraw its previously submitted nominations. The Company did not receive any other notice of a director candidate recommended by a shareholder or group of shareholders owning more than 5% of the Company’s voting common stock for at least one year as of the date of recommendation on or prior to November 24, 2006, the date that is 120 days before the anniversary of the prior year’s release of the proxy statement.

Communications with Non-Management Members of the Board of Directors

The Company’s Corporate Governance Policies set forth a process by which shareholders and other interested third parties can send communications to the non-management members of the Board of Directors. When interested third parties have concerns, they may make them known to the non-management directors by communicating via written correspondence sent by U.S. mail c/o “Executive Session Chairman” at the Company’s Richmond, Virginia address. All such correspondence is provided to the presiding chairman at, or prior to, the next executive session held at a regular Board meeting.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company’s executive compensation program is designed to reward executives who contribute to the achievement of the Company’s business objectives, and to attract, retain and motivate talented executives to perform at the highest level and contribute significantly to the Company’s success. The program is intended to align the interests of the Company’s executive officers, including the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table (the “named executive officers”), with those of its shareholders by delivering a significant proportion of total compensation that is dependent upon the Company’s performance and increased shareholder value. The Company’s executive compensation program includes plans designed to facilitate the executive’s retirement planning by providing tax-effective vehicles for savings and compensation deferral. At the same time, these vehicles also focus the executive on the long-term performance of the Company.

The Company is a global leader in security services and operates two businesses: Brink’s, Incorporated (“Brink’s”) and Brink’s Home Security (“BHS”).

Brink’s is the world’s premier provider of secure transportation and cash management services. Brink’s services include armored car transportation, automated teller machine replenishment and servicing, currency, deposit processing and cash management services, including its “cash logistics” operations, coin sorting and wrapping, arranging the secure transportation of valuables, the deploying and servicing of safes and safe control devices, including its patented CompuSafe ® service, transporting, storing and destroying sensitive information and guarding services, including airport security.

BHS offers monitored security services in North America primarily for owner-occupied, single-family residences. To a lesser extent, BHS also offers security services for commercial and multi-family properties. BHS typically installs and owns the on-site security systems and charges fees to monitor and service the systems. BHS is one of the largest and most successful residential alarm companies in North America.

The Company has transformed itself from a holding company with interests in coal and natural resources, a heavy weight freight business and its two security businesses, Brink’s and BHS. In making this transition, the Company has encountered and will continue to encounter short-term and long-term challenges, including competition from other companies in the industries in which it competes, the extension of the Company’s brands into new markets and the pursuit of opportunities and efficiencies inherent in the transition from a holding company to an integrated operating company. These issues require the Company’s executives to regularly make decisions which reflect patience, discipline and a long-term view. The Company believes that the executive officers’ compensation packages support the Company’s short-term and long-term goals by providing the Company’s executive officers an appropriate mix of compensation elements that includes secure, short-term compensation and target-based, long-term compensation.

6

Executive Compensation Program Overview

Each executive officer’s compensation package comprises five elements. A description of these five elements, and their function within the total compensation program, is shown below:

Element	Description	Function
Base salary	Fixed compensation	Provides basic economic security at a level consistent with competitive practices; reflects role, responsibilities, skills, experience
and performance; encourages retention
Annual incentive	Key Employees Incentive Plan: Discretionary amount payable
annually in cash, based on achievement of annual performance
goals	Motivates and rewards for achievement of Company, unit and
individual goals
Long-term incentives	Management Performance Improvement Plan: Performance
based cash incentive, based on achievement of performance
goals over a three-year period	Encourages executives to increase shareholder value by focusing
on profitable growth as well as other actions which are likely to
increase the Company’s stock price
	Stock options: Right to purchase Company stock at a pre-determined (grant date) price; economic benefit only if stock price
increases	Motivates and rewards for financial performance over a sustained period; strengthens mutuality of interests between officers
and shareholders; increases retention; rewards stock price performance
Benefits	Deferred compensation and other benefits: Generally non-performance-based, although the value of deferred compensation is
tied to stock price; 401(k); frozen defined benefit pension	Provides security for current and future needs of the executives
and their families; aids in recruitment and retention
Contractual and severance arrangements	Severance plan, employment contract and change-in-control plan:
Contingent amounts payable only if employment is terminated
under certain conditions	Provides employment security; encourages the objective evaluation of potential changes to the Company’s strategy and structure

The Company believes the combination of these different elements provides a balance of rewards, incentives and benefits, and enables the Company to meet its desired compensation objectives.

Process for Setting Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and reviewing policies governing salaries and benefits, annual performance awards, incentive compensation and the terms and conditions of employment for Mr. Dan and each of the other named executive officers. The Company’s Board of Directors approves salary and annual performance awards for Mr. Dan, based on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for ensuring that

7

executive officers of the Company are compensated in a manner consistent with the established policies. The Company’s Human Resources Department provides support to the Compensation Committee. In addition, the Compensation Committee currently engages Towers Perrin as the Company’s compensation consultant to advise the Compensation Committee on the components of the Company’s executive compensation program and the appropriate values the Company should assign to each component. Towers Perrin also provides the Compensation Committee with information on executive compensation trends, best practices and advice regarding potential changes to the executive compensation program.

The Compensation Committee has determined that current compensation—base salary and annual bonuses—should be delivered in cash, but that long-term incentive compensation should include a combination of long-term cash incentives and stock-based compensation so that the long-term financial rewards available to executives are linked to the success of the Company over the long-term. This aligns the executives’ interests with the economic interests of the Company’s shareholders. For this same reason, the Compensation Committee has also determined that, for each named executive officer, the long-term equity-based variable compensation opportunity should be a substantial component of overall compensation.

The Compensation Committee annually reviews the total compensation of each named executive officer by reviewing various relevant compensation reports prepared by the Company’s Chief Administrative Officer. These reports include competitive pay practices, the value of all Company compensation paid, including base salary, annual and long-term compensation, Company matching contributions on deferred compensation, outstanding equity awards, benefits, perquisites and potential payments under various termination scenarios. The Compensation Committee also reviews the recommendations of Mr. Dan related to compensation for the other members of the executive team. The Compensation Committee approves any adjustments to compensation based on an evaluation of each executive’s individual performance and the competitive compensation market.

The Compensation Committee considers a variety of factors in coming to decisions regarding executive compensation for the named executive officers. Market benchmarking is an important consideration, but not the only one. The main factors are as follows:

Market competitiveness. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews market benchmarking data and reports on executive compensation practices from Towers Perrin regarding competitive pay levels and compensation structures. In setting compensation levels for the named executive officers and other executives, the Compensation Committee aims to provide target compensation—for each element and in aggregate—that approximates the 50th percentile (or mid-market for peer companies). Individual compensation may be more or less than the median compensation amount when warranted by individual or corporate performance. The peers are companies of similar size in terms of revenues or adjusted for size across all service industries from which the Company seeks to attract executives.

Performance . The Company’s policy is to provide its executive officers with compensation opportunities that are based upon their individual performance, the performance of the Company and their contribution to that performance. The Compensation Committee considers these performance factors when approving adjustments to the compensation of the executives.

Mix of current and long-term compensation. Because the successful operation of the Company’s business requires a long-term approach, an emphasis of the program is on long-term compensation, by means of both long-term incentives and deferred compensation.

The impact of cash vs. non-cash compensation. The Compensation Committee considers both the cost and the motivational value of the various components of compensation. The current pay elements are cash-based while the long-term incentive plans are a mix of equity (stock options) and cash (the long-term performance plan, or the Management Performance Improvement Plan).

The amount of accumulated or prior year’s compensation. The Compensation Committee reviews accumulated or outstanding compensation, but there is not necessarily a direct relationship between the amount of realizable or potentially realizable payments and the decisions regarding pay in the current year.

Program Components

The Company’s executive compensation program for its executive officers consists of the following elements:

Base Salary

Base salary creates a secure base of cash compensation for executives that is designed to be competitive with the market for talented executives. The Company’s objective is to compensate the executive officers with base salaries that are at or near the 50th percentile for comparable positions in companies of similar size, or with data adjusted to account for differences in size, in terms of revenues, across all industries from which the Company seeks to attract executive officers. The base salary for each officer reflects the salary levels for comparable positions within this comparative group of companies, as well as each individual’s proficiency in a specific role, the executive’s work experience, the importance of the particular position to the Company, how difficult it may be to replace the executive, the executive’s individual performance and internal alignment considerations. The relative weight given to each factor varies with each position and individual and is within the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. Each executive officer’s base salary increase is determined each year on the basis of (1) the Compensation Committee’s review of Mr. Dan’s evaluation of the officer’s individual performance for the prior year and his recommended salary adjustments and (2) base salary levels in the competitive marketplace for persons in comparable positions.

The Company performed benchmarking in early 2006, based on 2005 compensation data, with respect to Mr. Dan’s compensation. Salary benchmarking for the other named executive officers was conducted in late 2006.

In 2006, Mr. Dan’s base salary was increased by 3.5%, with the objective of remaining within a competitive range around the 50th percentile. Increases for the other named executive officers ranged between 3% and 5.5%, generally reflecting (a) the general increase in salaries for executives in the United States and (b) individual performance.

Annual Performance Awards

The Key Employees Incentive Plan (the “KEIP”) is designed to provide financial incentive for the executive officers because the Company believes their performance in fulfilling the responsibilities of their positions can significantly affect the profitable growth and future prospects of the Company. The KEIP provides an opportunity for the executive officers to earn additional annual cash compensation based upon the following three performance factors:

•	the named executive officer’s individual performance in achieving established (and periodically updated) objectives;
•	the results achieved by the Company, including revenue and operating profit levels, cash flow, earnings per share, safety and security results and other objective and subjective measurements; and
•	the results achieved by the unit for which the named executive officer performs services.

Mr. Dan’s annual cash compensation under the KEIP is based upon the first two factors only.

All annual incentive payments are discretionary, with the Compensation Committee recommending to the Board of Directors bonuses for Mr. Dan and establishing bonuses for the other named executive officers after reviewing the recommendations of Mr. Dan. The Compensation Committee assigns Mr. Dan and the other named executive officers a competitive incentive target for each year under the KEIP. The target incentive is expressed as a percent of the participant’s annual base salary as of the end of the year and is designed by the Company to be indicative of the incentive payment that each participant would expect to receive on the basis of strong performance by the individual, the Company and, in the case of the named executive officers, the named executive officer’s operating unit. Target incentives for Mr. Dan and each of the named executive officers generally are set at the 50th percentile of the Towers Perrin compensation database.

9

In determining annual incentive awards, the Compensation Committee generally considers, at its discretion, numerous quantitative and qualitative measures of the Company’s performance, including, among others: (1) revenues, earnings and cash flow on a consolidated basis; (2) revenues, operating earnings and cash flow of each business unit; (3) the employee safety performance of each unit; (4) shareholder value as measured by the market capitalization and the share price of the Company; and (5) increases in economic value. The Compensation Committee also takes into account: pricing and market conditions affecting each business unit; the effect of the economy on such businesses; comparative performance of the Company’s competitors; productivity and cost containment measures successfully carried out; progress of management development and employee relations efforts; the quality of strategic planning; and communications with external constituencies.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Recognizing the desirability of tying the compensation of the executive officers to performance and aligning their interests closely to the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders, in addition to base salaries, benefits and annual performance awards, the Company provides a significant part of the executive officers’ compensation in the form of long-term incentive opportunities. The Company believes that the long-term incentive compensation of each of the executive officers should be competitive, but also indicative of individual and Company performance. The combined long-term incentive compensation target is generally designed by the Company to be at or near the 50th percentile values in the Towers Perrin compensation database. The following factors are considered in determining the amount of long-term incentive compensation opportunities awarded to each executive:

•	benchmark median long-term incentive amounts;
•	the executive’s performance;
•	the executive’s potential future contributions to the Company;
•	the current compensation of the executive;
•	the importance of the executive to the Company over the long term, and the executive’s performance relative to his or her peers within the Company; and
•	retention issues/concerns.

The components of long-term incentive compensation include the following:

Management Performance Improvement Plan . The Management Performance Improvement Plan (the “MPIP”) is an incentive compensation plan that the Company believes promotes the financial interests of the Company and its shareholders by linking the long-term financial incentives of the executive officers to improvement in the Company’s financial performance. The Compensation Committee sets performance and award targets for the executive officers under the MPIP annually and cash compensation payments are made based upon attainment of specific performance goals measured over a three-year period. Because awards are earned at the end of three-year performance cycles, there are three overlapping cycles in effect at any one time.

For the three-year measurement period beginning in 2006, the Company established specific performance goals with respect to increases for each of its business units in: revenue, operating profit and economic value added and for the Company’s earnings per share. The Compensation Committee believes that attainment of these goals will be difficult. Awards to the executives at the end of the three-year measurement period may range from 0% to 200% of the target award amount, depending upon the aggregated three-year actual performance against the pre-established criteria.

Because the MPIP is designed to be a tax qualified plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m), payouts are determined solely by actual quantifiable performance against the preset numerical goals. The Compensation Committee does not have the discretion to adjust payouts based on subjective assessments.

In connection with the three-year measurement period that ended on December 31, 2006, with respect to the MPIP, the Company met or exceeded all of the four performance goals previously established for each of the named executive officers: revenue improvement, operating profit improvement, economic value added, and improvement and increase in earnings per share, except

10

for improvement targets in operating profit and economic value added established for Brink’s, Incorporated.

2005 Equity Incentive Plan . The Compensation Committee uses stock options as an important part of the long-term incentive compensation program and believes options continue to be an effective way to link an executive’s compensation to the performance of the Company. Awards under the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Equity Plan”) are intended by the Company to encourage each of the named executive officers to continue in the employ of the Company, to enhance their incentive to perform at the highest level, and in general, to further the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Stock options are granted on the day they are approved by the Compensation Committee at its July meeting and are priced at 100% of fair market value on the date of grant, which under the 2005 Equity Plan is based on the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Common Stock on the date of the grant as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape.

Only the Compensation Committee may grant stock options under the 2005 Equity Plan. Executive officers benefit from stock option grants only to the extent the stock price of Brink’s Common Stock appreciates above the exercise price of the stock options. In addition, because of the vesting requirements, the Compensation Committee believes that providing the executive officers compensation in the form of stock options allows it to focus on their retention while encouraging them to take a longer-term view in their decisions impacting the Company.

The Compensation Committee determines the number of stock options to be granted to each executive officer based on competitive practices and individual performance, considered in the context of the overall long-term incentive compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee takes into account all target award amounts provided to the executive under the MPIP when granting options, as well as the importance to the Company of the individual’s position, the individual’s overall contribution to the Company’s performance, and the individual’s expected contribution to future performance.

1988 Stock Option Plan. None of the executive officers received compensation under the 1988 Stock Option Plan in 2006, but previously granted options from this plan remain outstanding.

Options—General. The Company has not engaged in backdating options. The Company does not have any program or plan to time option grants in coordination with the release of material non-public information and has never had a practice of doing so. In addition, the Company has never timed and does not plan to time the release of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

The accounting for all options is compliant with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and is disclosed in the Company’s annual and quarterly financial reports filed with the SEC.

Benefits

The types and amounts of benefits are also established based upon an assessment of competitive market factors and a determination of what is needed to aid in attracting and retaining talent, as well as providing long-term financial security to the Company’s employees and their families. All benefits are reviewed at least annually by the Compensation Committee, which evaluates benefit levels based on competitive influences, as well as the cost of the programs to the Company relative to their value to employees. The plans are also reviewed for changes that may be required due to new laws and regulations or significant changes in market conditions. The Company’s primary benefits for executive officers include participation in the plans or arrangements listed below.

Deferred Compensation. The Company maintains a deferred compensation program, the Key Employees’ Deferred Compensation Program, for certain of its most highly compensated employees, including all of the named executive officers. The deferred compensation program provides an opportunity for the participants, including Mr. Dan and each of the named executive officers, to defer receipt of up to 100% of any annual KEIP or MPIP awards in increments of 10%, up to 50% of base salary in increments of 5% and amounts that are prevented from being contributed to the Company’s 401(k) Plan (up to 5% of compensation) as a result of limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue

11

Code (supplemental savings). The Company matches 100% of the first 10% of salary deferred and 100% of the first 10% of the gross amount of any KEIP award deferred by the participant. The Company also matches 125% of supplemental savings; the same match that is provided on 401(k) Plan contributions. There is no Company match on MPIP deferrals.

In addition, the Company provides downside protection to each participant, which ensures that the aggregate value of the shares and cash ultimately distributed will be at least equal to the amount of deferred salary, KEIP and/or MPIP payments, including reinvested dividends, but excluding Company matching contributions and related reinvested dividends. Such downside protection feature has been eliminated for all deferrals elected effective January 1, 2007 and forward.

The Compensation Committee believes the deferred compensation program is important because it provides participants with an opportunity to purchase units, the value of which is equal to that of Brink’s Common Stock, and utilize tax deferrals to build a supplemental retirement benefit. The Compensation Committee reviews each officer’s account under the deferred compensation program annually in November and also when the Company’s proxy statement is prepared following year-end. For more information on the Company’s deferred compensation program, see “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” beginning on page 25.

Pension Plans. The Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension-retirement plan covering the executive officers along with all other U.S. employees who met plan eligibility requirements. Because the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of pension benefits that may be paid under federal income tax qualified plans, the Company implemented a pension equalization plan under which the Company makes additional payments so that the total benefit to be received by the executive is the same as it would have been if there were no Internal Revenue Code limitations. Effective December 31, 2005, the Company froze the accrual of benefits under both the pension plan and the equalization plan. For more information on the Company’s pension plan and equalization plan, see “Pension Benefits” beginning on page 22.

Executive Life Insurance Plan. The Company provides executives in the Company, including the executive officers, with life insurance benefits. All premiums paid by the Company are fully taxable to the participant. The life insurance policies are owned by the individual executives.

Executive Salary Continuation Plan. The named executive officers participate along with other executives in the Company’s Executive Salary Continuation Plan which, in the event a participant dies for any reason while in the employment of the Company, provides that the Company will pay a designated beneficiary a death benefit equal to three times the participant’s annual salary in effect on the first of the year coincident with or immediately preceding the date of death. Such benefit is paid out over a ten year period following the executive’s death.

Long-Term Disability Plan. The named executive officers participate along with other executives in a long term disability program. In the event that the executive is totally incapacitated, he would receive 60% of his salary plus the average of the last three years KEIP payments, with a maximum annual payment of $300,000. These payments would continue (as long as the executive is totally disabled) until the executive reaches the social security full retirement age.

Financial and Tax Planning Program. The executive officers participate in the Company’s Financial and Tax Planning Program, which the Company believes enables them to devote to the business activities of the Company the time and attention that would otherwise be devoted to their personal financial and tax affairs, and in the case of the personal tax return preparation and certification aspect of the program, to provide the Company with assurance that the tax affairs of participating executives are properly administered. Under the Financial and Tax Planning Program, subject to a $10,000 calendar year maximum, the Company reimburses the executive officers for reasonable costs associated with personal financial and tax planning, estate planning and the preparation and filing of their personal tax returns.

Miscellaneous Plans or Arrangements. The Company’s executive officers are also eligible to participate in the Company’s health, dental and vision plans, and various insurance plans, including basic life insurance, and the Company’s matching charitable gifts program on the same basis as any other U.S. employee.

12

Stock Ownership Guidelines. The Company’s executive officers are not formally required to achieve or maintain any particular level of stock ownership in the Company. However, all executive officers maintain a significant stock ownership position in the Company. In addition to direct ownership of shares, the Company’s deferred compensation program measures all amounts as stock units and each named executive has a substantial balance in deferred compensation. As a result, all of the executive officers own amounts of shares or equivalent stock units in significantly higher amounts as a multiple of salary than typical executive ownership guidelines would require.

Perquisites. The Company provides its named executive officers with perquisites; a detailed listing of perquisites and their value is on page 16.

Contractual and Severance Agreements

Employment Agreements . The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Dan that is described under “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control—Employment Agreement with Mr. Dan” beginning on page 32. The Compensation Committee believes it is appropriate for the Company to have an employment agreement with Mr. Dan to support stable and highly competent management on a long-term basis.

Change in Control Agreements . In 1997 and 1998, the Company entered into change in control agreements with Mr. Dan and each of the named executive officers that are described below under “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control—Change in Control Agreements and Severance Agreements” beginning on page 33.

The Compensation Committee reviews the continued suitability of the agreements at least annually. The Compensation Committee believes that the agreements serve the interests of the Company and its shareholders by ensuring that if a hostile or friendly change in control is ever under consideration, its executives will be able to advise the Board of Directors about the potential transaction in the best interests of shareholders, without being unduly influenced by personal considerations, such as fear of the economic consequences of losing their jobs as a result of a change in control. The change in control agreements include so-called double triggers, which mean that benefits become available to named executive officers under the agreements only upon a change in control and certain adverse employment developments for the executives such as termination by the Company without cause or termination by the executive for good reason. The Compensation Committee believes that a double trigger appropriately protects the legitimate interests of the named executive officers in employment security without unduly burdening the Company or shareholder value.

Severance Agreements . In 1997 and 1998, the Company entered into severance agreements with the named executive officers, other than Mr. Dan, that are described below under “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control—Change in Control Agreements and Severance Agreements” beginning on page 33.

The Compensation Committee believes that reasonable severance arrangements are an essential aspect of the terms of employment of named executive officers. The Compensation Committee is of the view that its shareholders have benefited from the protection that these agreements provide. The Compensation Committee believes that these agreements provide reasonable compensation arrangements and give the Company a high degree of management stability.

Policies

Taxes . Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) disallows a tax deduction to any publicly held corporation for paid remuneration exceeding $1 million in any taxable year for chief executive officers and certain other executive officers, except for performance-based remuneration. Historically, through the design and implementation of the Company’s compensation programs, the Company has sought, and continues to seek, the availability of tax deductibility. This policy, however, is subject to the reservation by the Company of the flexibility to award non-deductible compensation in circumstances wherein the Company believes, in its good faith business judgment, that such an award is in its best interest in attracting or retaining capable management.

| (2) | Represents cash incentive amounts earned by the named executive officers under the Company’s KEIP for 2006 (paid in 2007) and a special award to Mr. Reed in the amount of $100,000 for work on legislative matters. A participant is permitted to defer
up to 100% of the cash incentive amount earned by him under the KEIP. For a discussion of the deferred compensation program and amounts deferred by the named executive officers under the deferred compensation program in 2006, including
earnings on amounts deferred, see “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” starting on page 25. |
| (3) | Represents the dollar amount recognized by the Company for financial reporting purposes during the year ended December 31, 2006 computed in accordance with FAS 123R. For a full description of the assumptions used by the Company in computing
these amounts, see Note 15 to the Company’s financial statements, which is included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and incorporated by reference into this proxy statement. This amount includes expense
associated with options granted in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. For a discussion of the terms of these options, see “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” on page 17. The actual value a named executive officer may receive depends on market prices and there can
be no assurance that the amounts reflected in the Option Awards column will actually be realized. No gain to a named executive officer is possible without an appreciation in stock value. |
| (4) | Represents cash incentive amounts earned under the Company’s MPIP for the three-year measurement period ended 2006 (paid in 2007) before deferrals under the deferred compensation program. A participant is permitted to defer up to 100% of the
cash incentive amount earned by him under the MPIP. For a discussion of the deferred compensation program and amounts deferred by the named executive officers under the deferred compensation program in 2006, including earnings on amounts
deferred, see “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” starting on page 25. |
| (5) | Since the earning of benefits under the pension plans for all employees was frozen as of December 31, 2005, these amounts represent the change during the year ended December 31, 2006 in the net present value of the named executive officers’ pension
payouts. For purposes of computing the net present value of the accrued benefit payable to the named executive officers, the Company has used the following assumptions: (a) the retirement age is the earliest one (age 65) permitted under the pension
plans without a reduction in the monthly benefit; (b) a 5.5% discount rate for the measurement date of December 31, 2005 and a 5.75% discount rate for the measurement date of December 31, 2006; (c) service accruals in the pension plans are frozen as
of December 31, 2005; and (d) payments will be made on a straight-life monthly annuity basis. For a full description of the assumptions used by the Company for financial reporting purposes, see Note 4 to the Company’s financial statements and the
discussion in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Primary U.S. Pension Plan” both of which are included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and incorporated by
reference into this proxy statement. |

(1) 401(k) Plan matching contributions are subject to reduction based on IRS-required nondiscrimination testing. Any required reduction is contributed to the participant’s account in the deferred compensation program under the terms of that program.

| (b) | In 2006, the Company paid life insurance premiums under the Company’s Executive Salary Continuation Plan for each named executive officer. The Company, not the individual, is the beneficiary under the insurance policies. The Executive Salary
Continuation Plan provides a death benefit equal to three times a covered employee’s annual salary payable by the Company in 10 equal annual installments to the employee’s designated beneficiary. |
| --- | --- |
| (c) | The table below reflects the types and dollar amounts of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to the named executive officers in 2006. For purposes of computing the dollar amounts of the items listed below, the Company used the actual
out-of-pocket costs to the Company of providing the perquisite or other personal benefit to the named executive officer, with two exceptions. The value of the Security Systems services are based on the actual monitoring fees that are charged to
similar customers, and not actual cost to the Company to provide these services. The incremental cost for Personal Use of Company Aircraft is based on the cost of fuel, crew travel expenses, on-board catering costs, and landing, parking and hangar
fees. Since the Company aircraft is used primarily for business travel, fixed costs that do not change based on personal use, such as pilots’ salaries, are not included. The named executive officers paid any taxes associated with these benefits without
reimbursement from the Company. |

(1)	The options granted on July 13, 2006 were granted under the 2005 Equity Plan. The awards granted as of January 1, 2006 were granted under the KEIP (payable in 2007) and under the MPIP (for the 2006–2008 performance measurement period—payable in 2009), respectively.
(2)	In accordance with the 2005 Equity Plan, the exercise price for the options was based on the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Common Stock on July 13, 2006, the date of the grant, as reported on the New York Stock
Exchange Composite Transaction Tape.
(3)	As of July 13, 2006.
(4)	Represents the grant date fair value computed in accordance with FAS 123R based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following assumptions: (a) a weighted average annual dividend yield of 0.45% for Brink’s Common Stock; (b) a
weighted average expected volatility of 33% for Brink’s Common Stock; (c) a weighted average risk-free rate of return of 5.02%; and (d) a weighted average expected term of 4.75 years. For a full description of the assumptions used by the Company in
computing these amounts, see Note 15 to the Company’s financial statements, which is included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and incorporated by reference into this proxy statement. The actual value a named
executive officer may receive depends on market prices and there can be no assurance that the amounts reflected in the Grant Date Fair Value of Option Awards column will actually be realized. No gain to a named executive officer is possible without
an appreciation in stock value.

Stock Option Grants

2005 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company maintains the 2005 Equity Plan, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders and is designed to provide an additional incentive for the officers and employees who are key to the Company’s success. The Compensation Committee administers the 2005 Equity Plan, is authorized to select key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to participate in the 2005 Equity Plan and has the sole discretion to grant eligible participants equity awards, including options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance units, other stock-based awards or any combination thereof.

Under the 2005 Equity Plan, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance is 5,000,000 shares, subject to adjustment by the Compensation Committee for stock splits and other events as set forth in the 2005 Equity Plan. During any calendar year, no participant may receive awards under the 2005 Equity Plan relating to more than 400,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment as noted above.

The exercise price of any stock option, the grant price of any stock appreciation right, and the purchase price of any security that may be purchased under any other stock-based award may not be

17

less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock or other security on the date of the grant of the option, right or award. Under the 2005 Equity Plan, determinations of the fair market value of shares of Brink’s Common Stock are based on the average of the high and low quoted sales price on the grant date and determinations of fair market value with respect to other instruments are made in accordance with methods or procedures established by the Compensation Committee.

The duration of options granted under the 2005 Equity Plan, which may be incentive stock options, which afford certain favorable tax treatment for the holder, or nonqualified stock options, is established by the Compensation Committee but may not exceed six years. Subject to a minimum vesting period of one year from the date of grant, the Compensation Committee may impose a vesting schedule on options and determines the acceptable form(s) in which the exercise price may be paid. In general, options continue to be exercisable following termination of employment for 90 days, if such options were exercisable at the time of termination. Upon termination of employment by reason of the holder’s retirement or permanent and total disability, options held by the holder remain outstanding and continue in accordance with their terms. In the event of the holder’s death while employed or after retirement or permanent and total disability, options held by the holder fully vest at the time of the holder’s death (or, if later, on the first anniversary of the grant date) and remain exercisable by the holder’s beneficiary or estate for three years following the holder’s death or their earlier expiration in accordance with their terms. In the event of a change in control of the Company, all outstanding options fully vest and become exercisable.

2006 Stock Option Grants

With respect to the options included in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” above, these options (1) become exercisable as to one-third of the total number of shares covered by such option on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant and (2) expire on July 13, 2012. The following factors were considered in determining the size of each stock option grant awarded to each named executive officer:

•	the benchmark median long-term incentive compensation amounts;
•	the executive’s past performance;
•	the executive’s potential future contributions to the Company;
•	the current compensation of the executive;
•	retention issues and concerns; and
•	the importance of the executive to the Company over the long term, and the executive’s performance relative to his peers within the Company.

Key Employees Incentive Plan Awards

Key Employees Incentive Plan

The Company maintains the KEIP, which is designed to provide an opportunity for participants to earn additional annual cash compensation based upon the following three performance factors:

•	the participant’s individual performance in achieving established (and periodically updated) objectives;
•	the performance achieved by the Company; and
•	the performance achieved by the unit for which the participant performs services.

Mr. Dan’s annual cash compensation under the KEIP is based upon the first two factors only.

All annual incentive payments are discretionary. Each participant is granted a target incentive for each year under the KEIP. The target incentive is expressed as a percent of the participant’s annual base salary as of the end of the year and is designed by the Company to be indicative of the incentive

18

payment that the participant should expect to receive on the basis of strong performance in satisfying the factors listed above. Target incentives for each of the named executive officers are set at the 50th percentile of the Towers Perrin compensation database.

2006 KEIP Awards

Target Award Opportunities. For 2006, Mr. Dan’s target incentive award opportunity was set at 100% of his 2006 base salary, while the target incentive award opportunities for each of the other named executive officers were set between 45% and 65% of their base salaries for achieving target performance. Actual payments under the KEIP could have ranged from 0% to 200% of each executive’s target incentive award based on the results of the performance factors described above, applied and considered at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.

Payouts. For purposes of determining actual payments under the KEIP in 2006 for each of the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee gave individual performance a weight factor of 50%, and each of unit and Company performance weight factors of 25%. In the case of Mr. Dan, individual performance and Company performance were each weighted 50%. In evaluating performance, the Compensation Committee considered financial plans, strategy, cost containment and productivity objectives and corporate governance, process and compliance results. For 2006, the named executive officers received the annual incentive payments set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” on page 15. In awarding these amounts, the Compensation Committee also considered, at its discretion, numerous other quantitative and qualitative measures of the Company’s performance in 2006, including, among others: (1) revenues, earnings and cash flow on a consolidated basis; (2) revenues, operating earnings and cash flow of each business unit; (3) the employee safety performance of each unit; (4) shareholder value as measured by the market capitalization of the Company; and (5) increases in economic value.

For a discussion of the principles applied in administering the KEIP, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Program Components—Annual Performance Awards” beginning on page 9.

Management Performance Improvement Plan Awards

Management Performance Improvement Plan

The Company maintains the MPIP, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders and is designed to promote the interests of the Company and its subsidiaries by linking financial incentives provided to participants with improvements in the Company’s financial results. The Compensation Committee administers the MPIP, establishes performance measures and is authorized to select key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to participate in the MPIP.

Each participant is periodically granted performance awards that entitle him or her to receive cash payments following the completion of a three-year performance measurement period, provided that specified performance measures and certain conditions described in the MPIP relating to continuation of employment are satisfied. The maximum incentive payment any one participant may be entitled to receive for any one performance measurement period is $3,000,000.

A performance award terminates unless the participant remains continuously employed by the Company or a subsidiary until the date established by the Compensation Committee for payment of the performance award unless (1) the termination is due to retirement, disability or death, (2) approved by the Compensation Committee or (3) the termination is subsequent to a change in control (as defined in the MPIP). In the event a participant’s employment is terminated due to retirement, disability or death, he or she (or, in the event of the participant’s death, his or her beneficiary) is entitled to a prorated portion of the performance award to which he or she would otherwise be entitled based on the portion of the performance measurement period (determined in completed months) during which he or she was continuously employed by the Company or a subsidiary and based on the extent to which the performance goals were achieved as determined at the end of the performance measurement period. In the event of a participant’s termination of employment for reasons other than retirement, disability or death, the Compensation Committee may, but is not obligated to, authorize payment of an amount up to the prorated amount that would be payable under the preceding sentence. In the event of a change in

19

control, performance awards are deemed to be earned at 150% of the specified target dollar amount applicable to the performance award and are paid as soon as practicable following the earlier of the participant’s termination of employment after the change in control or the end of the performance measurement period during which the change in control occurred.

Participants eligible to receive an award are entitled to receive a lump-sum cash payment on a date selected by the Compensation Committee following the end of the performance measurement period for the award provided that the performance measures are met. Under the deferred compensation program, participants may elect to defer the receipt of this payment.

The MPIP is intended to be compliant with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, so that payments made under the plan retain their tax deductibility. In order to remain compliant, the payouts are calculated by comparing actual performance metrics to those preset by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has not adjusted payouts to include any subjective factors.

2006 MPIP Awards

With respect to the 2006–2008 performance measurement period, the performance measures set by the Compensation Committee require Brink’s, Incorporated and Brink’s Home Security to achieve specific thresholds for increases in revenue and operating profit, and the addition of economic value and the Company to achieve earnings per share targets. The earnings per share targets, the performance of Brink’s, Incorporated and the performance of Brink’s Home Security were each given equal weight. The adoption of the measures for the 2006–2008 performance measurement period also effectively amended the measures used in evaluating the performance measurement periods ending in 2006 and 2007 because of the sale of BAX Global Inc., a former significant operating unit of the Company. Performance award targets for the 2006–2008 measurement period for each named executive officer are included in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” above. Actual payments can range from 0% to 200% of the target depending on performance against the pre-established measures.

For a discussion of the principles applied in administering the MPIP and a further discussion of the 2006 MPIP awards, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Program Components—Long-Term Incentive Compensation—Management Performance Improvement Plan” beginning on page 10.

PENSION BENEFITS

The Company provides retirement benefits to substantially all U.S. non-union employees who meet vesting and other minimum requirements. These benefits are provided through two plans: The Brink’s Company Pension-Retirement Plan (or the pension-retirement plan), a qualified plan under the Internal Revenue Code, and The Brink’s Company Pension Equalization Plan (or the equalization plan), a plan (not qualified under the Internal Revenue Code) under which the Company makes additional payments to a smaller group of employees so that the total amount to be received by each participant from both plans will be the same as he or she would have received under the pension-retirement plan in the absence of benefit limitations for tax qualified plans. (The pension-retirement plan and the equalization plan are referred to collectively in this proxy statement as the pension plans.) The named executive officers are among those covered by these plans. There are no other plans providing defined benefit pension payments to them.

Benefit accruals under both plans were frozen for all U.S. non-union employees as of December 31, 2005. The named executive officers, therefore, earned no additional pension benefits during the year ended December 31, 2006.

The following table presents information as of December 31, 2006 concerning each defined benefit plan of the Company that provides for payments to be made to the named executive officers at, following or in connection with retirement.

Name — Michael T. Dan	Plan Name — Pension-Retirement Plan	24.000	$ 589,320

For purposes of computing the present value of the accrued benefit payable to the named executive officers, the Company has used the following assumptions: (a) the retirement age is the earliest one (age 65) permitted under the pension plans without a reduction in the monthly benefit; (b) a 5.75% discount rate for the measurement date of December 31, 2006; (c) service accruals in the pension plans are frozen as of December 31, 2005; and (d) payments will be made on a straight-life monthly annuity basis. For a full description of the assumptions used by the Company for financial reporting purposes, see Note 4 to the Company’s financial statements and the discussion in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Primary U.S. Pension Plan” both of which

22

are included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.

Pension-Retirement Plan

The Company maintains the pension-retirement plan, which is a defined benefit plan that covers, generally, full-time employees of the Company and participating subsidiaries who are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The Company has reserved the right to terminate or amend the pension-retirement plan at any time.

The amount of any benefit payable to a participant is based on the participant’s benefit accrual service and average salary (as these terms are defined in the pension-retirement plan). At June 1, 2003, the named executive officers had been credited under the pension-retirement plan with the following years of benefit accrual service: Mr. Dan, 21.305 years; Mr. Lennon, 26 years; Mr. Hartough, 16 years; Mr. Reed, 15.946 years; and Mr. Ritter, 5 years. Effective June 1, 2003, the Company amended the pension-retirement plan to provide a lower accrual rate for benefit accrual service earned after June 1, 2003. At December 31, 2005, the named executive officers had been credited under the pension-retirement plan, as amended June 1, 2003, with the following additional years of benefit accrual service after June 1, 2003: Mr. Dan, 2.695 years; Mr. Lennon, 2.405 years; Mr. Hartough, 2.842 years; Mr. Reed, 2.399 years; and Mr. Ritter, 2.565 years. Benefit Accrual Service is based on computation periods which are defined as 12-month consecutive periods of active employment beginning on date of hire and continuing on each anniversary thereof. For the last benefit computation period, a participant receives a fraction of benefit accrual service, not greater than one, equal to monthly elapsed time in that period multiplied by 0.1203. Effective December 31, 2005, the Company amended the pension plans to cease benefit accrual service to the Company.

For purposes of calculating the portion of a participant’s benefit accrued before June 1, 2003, average salary means the average compensation received by a participant for any consecutive 36-month period, which results in the highest annual average for any such 36-month period. Effective June 1, 2003, the period for calculating average salary was changed from 36 to 60 consecutive months. The compensation used in calculating average salary includes salary and bonus, but excludes amounts attributable to stock options or the sale of shares acquired upon the exercise of such stock options, any Company matching contributions credited to the participant under the deferred compensation program, any payments payable under the MPIP and any special recognition bonus.

Subject to certain limitations, a participant who reaches age 65 may receive an annuity for life payable monthly beginning on his normal retirement date (as defined in the pension-retirement plan) at an annual rate equal to the sum of the following:

• for the portion of the accrued benefit earned before June 1, 2003:

•	2.1% of his average salary multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed as of May 31, 2003 with a maximum of 25 years; plus
•	1% of his average salary multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed as of May 31, 2003 in excess of 25 years; less
•	.55% of his covered compensation base (the average of the social security wage base for the 35 years preceding retirement) multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed
as of May 31, 2003.

• for the portion of the accrued benefit earned after May 31, 2003 and through December 31, 2005:

•	1.75% of his average salary multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed after May 31, 2003 and through December 31, 2005 with a maximum of 25 years; plus
•	1% of his average salary multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed after May 31, 2003 and through December 31, 2005 in excess of 25 years; less
•	.55% of his covered compensation base (the average of the social security wage base for the 35 years preceding retirement) multiplied by his number of years of benefit accrual service completed
after May 31, 2003 and through December 31, 2005.

23

Subject to certain limitations, a participant who retires before he reaches age 65, provided he has completed 10 years of vesting service and reached age 55 may receive an annuity for life payable monthly beginning on his early retirement date (as defined in the pension-retirement plan) at an annual rate equal to the rate applicable to retirement on his normal retirement at age 65 reduced by 0.4167% for each month (the equivalent of 5% per year) by which his early retirement date precedes his normal retirement date. Messrs. Dan, Hartough, Lennon and Reed are eligible for early retirement under the pension-retirement plan.

The pension-retirement plan provides multiple payment options for participants. Participants may select a single life annuity for the life of the participant, joint and survivor annuities under which a participant’s surviving beneficiary may receive for his or her life 50%, 75% or 100% of the monthly benefit received by the participant, and period certain options under which a participant’s surviving beneficiary may receive payments for a fixed term of 5, 10, 15 or 20 years. If a joint and survivor annuity or a period certain option is selected, the amount of the retirement benefit is less than the amount payable under a single life annuity. Benefit elections must be made before retirement, and some options are subject to certain requirements, such as spousal consent.

Pension Equalization Plan

The Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of pension benefits that may be paid under federal income tax qualified plans. As a result, the Board of Directors adopted the equalization plan under which the Company will make additional payments so that the total amount received by each person affected by the Internal Revenue Code limitations is the same as would have otherwise been received under the pension-retirement plan. The Company has reserved the right to terminate or amend the equalization plan at any time.

Effective December 1, 1997, the equalization plan was amended to permit participants to receive the actuarial equivalent of their benefit under such plan in a lump sum upon retirement. In accordance with the equalization plan, the Company has contributed to a trust, established between the Company and JPMorgan Chase, amounts in cash intended to be sufficient to provide the benefits to which (1) participants under the equalization plan and (2) retirees covered under certain employment contracts are entitled under the terms of the equalization plan and such employment contracts. None of the named executive officers is covered by the contracts referred to in clause (2) above. Further contributions may be made only to the extent that the funded percentage of the equalization plan after a contribution does not exceed the funded percentage of the pension-retirement plan. The assets of the trust are subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors in the event of the Company’s insolvency.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

The following table presents information concerning the Company’s deferred compensation program, which provides for the deferral of compensation paid to or earned by the named executive officers on a basis that is not tax qualified (i.e., the Company is not entitled to take a tax deduction for the related expense until payments are actually made to the participants).

The information included in the table below reflects elective deferrals, Company matching contributions and dividends credited to the participants’ accounts during 2006 under the rules governing the deferred compensation program. Since deferrals, along with matching contributions, related to the KEIP and the MPIP are settled in the year after they are earned, these amounts differ from those reflected in the Summary Compensation Table, which are based on amounts earned in 2006 but paid in 2007.

Name — Michael T. Dan	$ 372,954	$ 335,804	$ 48,462	$ 14,917,078
Robert T. Ritter	106,263	113,284	12,242	3,822,413

James B. Hartough	129,947	47,888	9,614	2,965,411

(1) Under the deferred compensation program, a participant is permitted to defer up to 50% of his base salary and up to 100% of the cash incentive amount earned by him under the KEIP and the MPIP. A participant is also able to defer amounts in excess of 401(k) limits of up to 5% of salary and KEIP as supplemental savings. The dollar value of the deferred amounts are converted into common stock units that represent an equivalent number of shares of Brink’s Common Stock in accordance with the formulas in the deferred compensation program. See pages 26 and 27 for a description of the formulas. The following table sets forth the amount of salary and cash incentive awards deferred in 2006 under the deferred compensation program by each of the named executive officers and the corresponding number of units representing shares of Brink’s Common Stock credited to his account:

Name — Mr. Dan	$ 146,496	$ 226,458	$ 372,954	7,385
Mr. Ritter	65,051	41,212	106,263	2,063

Mr. Hartough	33,397	96,550	129,947	2,602

(a) The incentive compensation deferred in 2006 was earned by each executive for 2005.

(2) Under the deferred compensation program, a participant also receives Company-matching contributions with respect to salary and KEIP awards deferred and supplemental savings plan contributions, which amounts are converted into common stock units that represent an equivalent number of shares of Brink’s Common Stock in accordance with the formulas in the deferred compensation program. See pages 26 and 27 for a description of the formulas. The following table sets forth the amount of Company-matching contributions made in 2006 with respect to deferrals of salary and KEIP awards and supplemental savings plan contributions for each of the named executive officers and the corresponding number of units representing shares of Brink’s Common Stock credited to his account:

Name — Mr. Dan	$ 102,785	$ 178,379	$ 54,640	$ 335,804	6,629
Mr. Ritter	45,675	43,389	24,220	113,284	2,198
Mr. Lennon	37,010	28,712	19,669	85,391	1,647
Mr. Reed	37,169	30,337	19,769	87,275	1,686
Mr. Hartough	25,431	12,500	9,957	47,888	913

(a) These amounts are included within “All Other Compensation” in the Summary Compensation Table.

(3) Under the deferred compensation program, dividends paid on Brink’s Common Stock for the common stock units in a participant’s account are deferred and converted into common stock units that represent an equivalent number of shares of Brink’s Common Stock in accordance with the formula in the deferred compensation program. The following table sets forth the aggregate amount of dividends paid on Brink’s Common Stock in 2006 for the common stock units in each named executive officer’s account and the corresponding number of units representing shares of Brink’s Common Stock credited to his account:

Name — Mr. Dan	$ 48,462	877
Mr. Ritter	12,242	222
Mr. Lennon	16,416	297
Mr. Reed	10,299	187
Mr. Hartough	9,614	174

(4) The following table sets forth the composition of the aggregate balance of deferred compensation as of December 31, 2006 for each of the named executive officers. It includes (a) the aggregate contributions made by each of the named executive officers, (b) the aggregate contributions made by the Company on behalf of each of the named executive officers, (c) dividends paid on Brink’s Common Stock for the common stock units in each named executive officer’s account and the change in market value of the common stock units based on the change in market value of Brink’s Common Stock and (d) the aggregate number of units representing shares of Brink’s Common Stock credited to each named executive officer’s account:

General

The Company’s deferred compensation program is an unfunded plan that provides deferred compensation for a select group of the Company’s management, including the named executive officers. Under the deferred compensation program, a named executive officer is permitted to defer receipt of:

•	up to 100% of his cash incentive payments awarded under the KEIP (in 10% increments),
•	up to 50% of his base salary (in 5% increments),
•	any or all amounts that are prevented from being deferred, and the related matching contribution, under the Company’s 401(k) Plan as a result of the limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue
Code and
•	up to 100% of his cash incentive payments awarded under the MPIP (in 10% increments).

The Company provides matching contributions for deferred KEIP amounts (100% of the first 10% deferred), deferred salary (100% of the first 10% deferred) and supplemental 401(k) Plan contributions (125% of the first 5% of salary and KEIP deferrals less amounts deferred into the Company’s 401(k) Plan).

Amounts deferred under the salary and supplemental savings portion of the deferred compensation program, including Company matching contributions, are converted on the first business day in January following the year in which the deferral was made into common stock units that represent an equivalent number of shares of Brink’s Common Stock. The dollar values are converted in accordance with the formula in the deferred compensation program, which is based on the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices for Brink’s Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape for the year. Dividends paid with respect to the common stock units in a participant’s account are also converted into common stock units using an average market price for Brink’s Common Stock. Effective January 1, 2007, the deferred compensation program was amended so that salary and supplemental savings amounts are converted to units on a monthly basis.

26

Amounts deferred related to KEIP awards, including Company matching contributions, are converted to common stock units using the average of the high and low per share quoted sales prices for Brink’s Common Stock for December of the year during which the award was earned (e.g., for awards earned during 2006 and paid in 2007, the average market price for December 2006 would be used). Effective January 1, 2007, the deferred compensation program was amended so that amounts paid after 2007 are converted into units based on the average market price for the month preceding the month in which the KEIP awards are paid. Amounts deferred relative to MPIP awards are converted using the average market price for the month in which the MPIP awards are paid. Effective January 1, 2007, the deferred compensation program was amended so that amounts paid after 2007 are converted into units based on the average market price for the month preceding the month in which the MPIP awards are paid.

Distributions

General. The deferred compensation program provides for distributions of one share of Brink’s Common Stock for each common stock unit in a participant’s account. Cash is paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares. However, the value of the shares of Brink’s Common Stock and cash distributed with respect to amounts deferred before January 1, 2007 may not be less than the following:

•	with respect to deferred salary, the amount of salary actually deferred by the participant, including related dividends, but excluding any matching contributions and related dividends; and
•	with respect to deferred cash incentive payments under the KEIP and the MPIP, the amount actually deferred by the participant under such plans, including related dividends, but excluding any
matching contributions and related dividends.

This minimum value of the shares of Brink’s Common Stock and cash distributed with respect to deferred incentive payments does not apply to supplemental 401(k) Plan deferrals.

Termination upon Death, Retirement, Disability or Change in Control. Upon the termination of participation as a result of death, normal or early retirement under the Company’s pension plan, total and permanent disability or termination for any reason within three years following a change in control, lump-sum distributions are made under the deferred compensation program (1) upon termination of employment for deferrals and matching contributions and related dividends made through December 31, 2004 and (2) six months after termination of employment for deferrals and matching contributions and related dividends made after December 31, 2004. A participant may elect, however, to receive the shares in up to 10 equal annual installments beginning on the first day of the month following the date of termination with respect to deferrals made through December 31, 2004 and on the last day of the month following the fifth anniversary of the date of termination with respect to deferrals made after December 31, 2004.

Termination Other Than Upon Death, Retirement, Disability or Change in Control. In the event that a participant’s employment terminates for a reason not described above, the participant receives the contributions made by the participant (1) upon termination of employment for deferrals made through December 31, 2004 and (2) six months after termination of employment for deferrals made after December 31, 2004. In addition, the participant forfeits all common stock units attributable to matching contributions and related dividends for the year in which the termination occurs. A participant’s common stock units attributable to Company matching contributions and related dividends vest based on the number of months that the participant participated in the deferred compensation program as follows:

Months of Participation
Less than 36 months	0 %
at least 36 months but less than 48 months	50 %
at least 48 months and less than 60 months	75 %
60 months or more	100 %

All of the named executive officers are fully vested.

27

Lump-sum distributions of a participant’s common stock units attributable to Company matching contributions and related dividends are made following the third anniversary of the termination of participation.

In-Service Distributions. Generally, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum distribution or a distribution in up to 10 equal annual installments in respect of all common stock units in the participant’s account for deferrals made through December 31, 2004, other than common stock units attributable to matching incentive contributions, matching salary contributions and related dividends.

(a) The grant date fair value was computed in accordance with FAS 123R based on the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Common Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on June 1, 2006, the date of grant.

(3) The Company granted 4,000 options to each director on July 3, 2006. The value shown represents the dollar amount recognized by the Company for financial reporting purposes with respect to the year ended December 31, 2006 computed in accordance with FAS 123R based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following assumptions: (a) a weighted average annual dividend yield of 0.45% for Brink’s Common Stock; (b) a weighted average expected volatility of 36%; (c) a weighted average risk-free rate of return of 5.15%; and (d) a weighted average expected term of seven years. The options become exercisable in full on the six month anniversary of the date of grant. The actual value a director may receive depends on market prices and there can be no assurance that the amounts reflected in the Option Awards column will actually be realized. No gain to a director is possible without an appreciation in stock value.

| | Under the Directors’ Charitable Award Program, the Company will contribute $1,100,000 on behalf of each participating director after such director’s death. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of life insurance policies insuring the lives of the
participating directors. The proceeds from such policies will fully fund the contributions. Premiums paid in 2006 in respect of such policies covering two directors totaled in aggregate $81,765. The premiums on the life insurance policies for the other
seven directors (including Mr. Dan) who participate in the program have been paid in full. In 2003, the Directors’ Charitable Award Program was closed to new participants. Accordingly, Messrs. Brinzo, Hudson, Martin and Mosner, who joined the
Board after that date, do not participate. For a discussion of the material terms of the Directors’ Charitable Award Program, see “Directors’ Charitable Award Program” below. |

Non-Employee Directors’ Fees

Each non-employee director is paid an annual retainer fee of $40,000, a fee of $1,750 for attendance at each meeting of the Board and of each committee of the Board on which he or she serves and a fee of $1,750 per day for rendering any special services to the Company at the request of the Chairman of the Board. In addition, each committee chairman receives an additional annual fee of $5,000, except the chairman of the Audit and Ethics Committee, who receives an additional annual fee of $10,000.

Directors’ Fees Deferral Plan

Under the Company’s directors’ fees deferral plan, a director may elect to defer receipt of his or her fees to future years and to receive interest thereon, compounded quarterly, at the prime commercial lending rate of JPMorgan Chase, as of the end of the previous calendar quarter. Distributions from a director’s account, which may be made before or after a director ceases to be a member of the Board, generally will be made in a single lump sum distribution; however, a director may elect, in accordance with the deferral plan, to receive a distribution in up to 10 equal annual installments.

The following table sets forth the aggregate balance for each participating director under the directors’ fees deferral plan as of December 31, 2006:

Name
Mr. Ackerman	$ 89,395
Mrs. Alewine	356,515
Mr. Breslawsky	590,231
Mr. Brinzo	85,408
Mr. Martin	77,659
Mr. Mosner	128,434
Mr. Sloane	662,008
Mr. Turner	224,778

Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan

Under the terms of the Company’s Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan, each non-employee director receives, as of June 1, an allocation of DSAP units equal to 50% of the annual retainer currently in effect, divided by the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Common Stock on the first trading date in June as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape. Additional DSAP units are credited to a participant’s account in respect of cash dividends paid on Brink’s Common Stock based upon the Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan’s formula for accrual. Also, after an increase in the annual retainer paid to non-employee directors, each non-employee director receives a corresponding supplemental allocation of DSAP units in accordance with the formula specified in the Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan, which formula requires a supplemental allocation for each participant equal to the number of DSAP units in the participant’s account multiplied by the percentage increase in the annual retainer. The annual retainer did not change during 2006.

Upon a participant’s termination of service, including retirement following a change in control of the Company, and provided that the criteria set forth in the Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan have been met, including the completion of at least five years of service as a non-employee director and the attainment of age 70, the distribution of shares of Brink’s Common Stock equal to the number of DSAP units allocated to such director’s account generally will be made in a single lump sum distribution; however, a participant may elect, in accordance with the plan, to receive a distribution in up to 10 equal annual installments. The Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan terminates on May 15, 2014.

Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan

Under the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan, automatic annual grants of options are made to each non-employee director on the first business day of July for 4,000 shares of Brink’s Common Stock with an exercise price equal to the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Common Stock on the date of grant as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape. Each option granted becomes exercisable six months from the date of grant. Each option granted under the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan constitutes a nonqualified stock option under the Internal Revenue Code, and terminates no later than 10 years from the date of grant.

The Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan provides that, in the event of a merger or share exchange in which the Company does not survive as an independent, publicly owned company or a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets, the then current value of any outstanding options will be

31

protected by the substitution, on an equitable basis without either a premium or discount, of securities or cash or any combination of securities and cash for such options. The options are nontransferable otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution except that options may be transferable to immediate family members (or trusts therefor) of the director. The Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan terminates on May 11, 2008.

Directors’ Charitable Award Program

Under the Directors’ Charitable Award Program, the Company will make contributions amounting to $1,100,000 on behalf of each participating director after such director’s death. Of that amount, $100,000 will be donated to one or more tax-exempt organizations designated by the Company, and $1,000,000 will be donated in accordance with the director’s recommendations to eligible educational institutions and charitable organizations. On February 7, 2003, the Board closed the Directors’ Charitable Award Program to new participants. Each of the Company’s directors, except Messrs. Brinzo, Hudson, Martin and Mosner, who each joined the Board after February 7, 2003, currently participates in the Directors’ Charitable Award Program. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of life insurance policies insuring the lives of the participating directors. The proceeds from such policies will fully fund the contributions.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

In addition to the general provisions of the Company’s benefit plans, there are three types of contracts which govern payments to the named executive officers in connection with termination or a change in control:

•	An employment agreement with Mr. Dan;
•	Severance agreements with Messrs. Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough; and
•	Change in control agreements with all five of the named executive officers.

The agreements and the Company’s benefit plans have been designed so that payments and benefits are not duplicative. The Company believes that the agreements provide a competitive level of employment security to the named executive officers and encourage them to objectively evaluate the Company’s opportunities without undue concern about any personal repercussions.

The agreements, and benefits available under the agreements, are explained below on pages 32 through 44. Summary tables for each named executive officer are also set forth below on pages 45 through 49.

The following section describes each contract, agreement, plan or arrangement that provides for payments to the named executive officers at, following or in connection with their termination from the Company, including following a change in control of the Company.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Dan

As of May 4, 1998, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Dan that, as amended as of March 8, 2006, provides him with a minimum annual salary of $1,033,500 for a period ending March 31, 2010, in exchange for his services as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Dan’s base salary is reviewed at least annually by the Compensation Committee and may be increased based on certain factors, including corporate and individual performances and increases in relevant cost of living indices. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Dan is also entitled to participate in all applicable Company retirement and benefit plans. In addition, while Mr. Dan is employed by the Company, his former wife is entitled to participate in the Company’s group medical plan and, upon his termination, to participate in such plan solely at her expense. Mr. Dan currently pays the premiums for this coverage.

In the event that the Company terminates Mr. Dan for “due cause” or he voluntarily terminates his employment other than for a deemed constructive termination, he generally will receive the salary to which he is entitled under the employment agreement only through the date of his termination. Any

32

rights and benefits that he may have under the Company’s employee benefit plans and programs will be determined in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs.

The employment agreement defines “due cause” as:

•	an act or acts of dishonesty intended to result in substantial personal enrichment at the expense of the Company; or
•	repeated material violations by Mr. Dan of the terms of the employment agreement that are demonstrably willful and deliberate on his part, that are not caused by a disability and that remain
uncured within a reasonable time after written notice specifying the nature of the violations.

In the event that the Company terminates Mr. Dan other than for due cause, under his employment agreement, Mr. Dan will be entitled to receive either:

| • | if a change in control of the Company has occurred under the change in control agreement described below under “Change in Control Agreements and Severance Agreements”, the payments due to
him under the provisions of the change in control agreement; or |
| --- | --- |
| • | in all other cases, a lump-sum cash payment equal to (1) his annual salary, as in effect immediately prior to such termination, multiplied by three, plus (2) the bonus, if any, paid to him in respect of
the immediately preceding fiscal year, multiplied by three, plus (3) a reasonable sum reflecting the economic equivalent of applicable Company retirement and employment benefit plans, including the
pension plans, the 401(k) Plan, the deferred compensation program, the salary continuation plan, financial and tax planning program and the Company’s charitable matching program, for a three-year
period starting with his date of termination. |

The table below provides information with respect to the compensation payable by the Company to Mr. Dan under his employment agreement and other plans or programs assuming that the Company terminated Mr. Dan’s employment on December 31, 2006 for other than due cause and that a change in control had not occurred as of that date.

Termination of Employment by the Company for Other Than Due Cause (No Change in Control)

Mr. Dan	$ 3,100,500	$ 9,369,750	$ 229,434	$ 6,287,355	$ 14,917,078	$ 33,904,117

(1) This amount includes the effect ($6,000,000) of a special bonus in the amount of $2,000,000 paid to Mr. Dan in connection with the sale of BAX Global Inc. If the Company terminated Mr. Dan’s employment on or after January 1, 2007, this $6,000,000 amount would not be payable to Mr. Dan.

The benefits payable under Mr. Dan’s employment agreement and the change in control agreement are not duplicative. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the two agreements, the terms of the change in control agreement govern.

Mr. Dan’s employment agreement also contains confidentiality and non-competition provisions to which he is subject during and for three years after termination of his employment.

Change in Control Agreements and Severance Agreements

In 1997 and 1998, the Company entered into change in control agreements with Messrs. Dan, Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough. These agreements provide Messrs. Dan, Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough with certain compensation and continued benefits in the event that a “change in control” occurs and they remain employed by the Company or its successor for three years following the change in control. In addition, these agreements provide Messrs. Dan, Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough with certain compensation and benefits in the event that a change in control occurs and either they are

33

terminated by the Company without “cause” or they quit for “good reason” within three years following a change in control.

In 1997 and 1998, the Company also entered into severance agreements with Messrs. Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough that provide that if the executive is terminated by the Company other than for “cause” or he quits for “good reason”, the terminated executive will be entitled to receive the compensation and benefits described below.

The benefits payable under the change in control agreements and severance agreements are not duplicative. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the two agreements, the named executive officer is entitled to receive the compensation and benefits most favorable to him.

The change in control agreements and severance agreements generally define “cause”, “change in control” and “good reason” as follows:

• “cause” means:

•	an act or acts of dishonesty intended to result in substantial personal enrichment at the expense of the Company; or
•	repeated material violations by the executive of the terms of the applicable agreement that are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the executive’s part and that remain uncured within a
reasonable time after written notice to the executive specifying the nature of such violations.

• a “change in control” will be deemed to have occurred:

| • | upon the approval of the Company’s shareholders (or if such approval is not required, the approval of the Board) of (1) any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is not
the surviving corporation or in which the shares of Brink’s Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property other than a consolidation or merger in which holders of the
total voting power in the election of directors of the Company of all classes of common stock outstanding (exclusive of shares held by the Company’s affiliates) (referred to as “total voting
power”) immediately before the consolidation or merger will have the same proportionate ownership of the total voting power in the election of directors of the surviving corporation
immediately after the consolidation or merger, or (2) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; |
| --- | --- |
| • | when any person, other than the Company, its affiliates or an employee benefit plan or trust maintained by the Company or its affiliates, becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of
more than 20% of the total voting power; or |
| • | if at any time during a period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless
the election by the Company’s shareholders of each new director during such two-year period was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors
at the beginning of such two-year period. |

• “good reason” means:

| • | without the executive’s express written consent and excluding an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt
of notice thereof given by the executive, (1) any action by the Company that results in a diminution in the executive’s position, authority, duties or responsibilities or (2) any failure by the
Company to comply with its obligations to provide the executive with the benefits to which he is entitled for continued employment under the applicable agreement; |
| --- | --- |
| • | without the executive’s express written consent, the Company’s requiring the executive to work at a location other than that at which he worked immediately before the change in control
occurred (in the case of the change in control agreement) or the date of the severance agreement or to travel on Company business to an extent substantially greater than required immediately
before the change in control occurred (in the case of the change in control agreement) or the date of the severance agreement; |

34

•	the failure by the Company to require any successor entity to assume the applicable agreement and agree to perform the Company’s obligations under the applicable agreement; or
•	any breach by the Company of any other material provision of the applicable agreement.

Change in Control Agreements—Benefits Following a Change in Control if Executive is not Terminated

Salary and Bonus . During the first year of employment following a change in control, the executive will receive annual compensation equal to the sum of (1) a salary not less than the executive’s annualized salary in effect immediately before the date the change in control occurred, plus (2) a bonus not less than the amount of the executive’s highest bonus award under the KEIP or any substitute or successor plan for the last three years preceding the date the change in control occurred. On each anniversary of the date the change in control occurred, the executive’s compensation in effect on such anniversary date will be increased for the remaining period of the executive’s employment by not less than the higher of (1) 5% or (2) 80% of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (All Urban Consumers) for the 12-month period ended immediately before the month in which such anniversary date occurs.

Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans .

• The Company will make a lump sum cash payment to the executive consisting of the aggregate of the following amounts:

| • | the sum of (1) the executive’s currently effective annual base salary through the date of termination to the extent not already paid, (2) a portion of his highest annual bonus awarded during the
past three years prorated based on the number of days worked in the year of his termination and (3) any compensation previously deferred by the executive (together with any accrued interest or
earnings thereon) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not already paid or credited (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), and (3) is referred to in the tables

| --- | --- |
| • | the amount equal to three times the sum of the executive’s annual base salary and his highest annual bonus awarded during the past three years. |

| • | For three years after the executive’s date of termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the terms of the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company will continue
benefits to the executive and/or the executive’s family at least equal to those that would have been provided to them in accordance with benefit plans, programs, practices and policies if the
executive’s employment had not been terminated or, if more favorable to the executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter. However, if the executive becomes reemployed with another
employer and is eligible to receive medical benefits under another employer-provided plan, the medical benefits provided by the Company will be secondary to those provided under such other plan
during such applicable period of eligibility. |
| --- | --- |
| • | The Company will pay in cash, at the request of the executive, the difference between the exercise price and market value with respect to all of the executive’s unexercised stock options granted

services. |

under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company, including earned but unpaid stock and similar compensation (such other amounts and benefits are referred to in
the tables below as the “Other Benefits”). |

Termination for Death or Incapacity. If the executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the executive’s death or incapacity during the three years following the date of the change in control, the change of control agreement will terminate without further obligations to the executive’s legal representatives under the change in control agreement, other than for (1) the payment of the Accrued Obligation Payment and (2) the provision by the Company of death benefits or disability benefits, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s welfare benefit plans and programs applicable to full-time officers or employees of the Company as in effect on the date of the change in control or, if more favorable to the executive, at the executive’s deemed date of termination.

Termination for Cause . If the Company or its successor terminates the executive’s employment for cause during the three years following the date of the change in control, the change in control

36

agreement will terminate without further obligations to the executive other than payment to the executive of (1) the executive’s currently effective annual base salary through the date of termination, (2) the amount of any compensation previously deferred by the executive and any and all amounts matched by the Company and (3) Other Benefits, in each case to the extent not already paid or credited.

Termination for Other Than for Good Reason . If the executive voluntarily terminates employment during the three years following the date of the change in control, excluding a termination for good reason, the change in control agreement will terminate without further obligations to the executive, other than for the payment of the Accrued Obligation Payment and Other Benefits.

In the event a change in control occurs and the executive’s employment with the Company ends, the terms of the executive’s change in control agreement and severance agreement, or in the case of Mr. Dan, Mr. Dan’s employment agreement, will apply. For information with respect to the compensation and other benefits payable by the Company to Messrs. Dan, Ritter, Lennon, Reed and Hartough under the scenarios described above, which are covered by these agreements, see the tables included below under “Hypothetical Termination Benefits Following a Change in Control”.

Severance Agreements

Termination for Good Reason or for Reasons Other Than for Cause, Death or Incapacity . If the executive terminates his employment for good reason or the Company terminates the executive’s employment other than for cause, death or incapacity, the executive will receive the compensation and other benefits under the severance agreement described below.

• The Company will make a lump sum cash payment to the executive (or in stock if provided by a relevant plan) consisting of the aggregate of the following amounts:

| • | the sum of (1) the executive’s currently effective annual base salary through the date of termination to the extent not already paid, (2) a portion of his highest annual bonus awarded during the
past three years prorated based on the number of days worked in the year of his termination, (3) any compensation previously deferred by the executive and any amounts matched by the
Company, whether vested or unvested (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon), (4) an amount equal to the value of those unvested benefits payable in stock or cash which
unvested benefits cannot be the subject of accelerated vesting by reason of the terms of the relevant plans and (5) any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the
sum of the amounts described in clauses (1) through (5) is referred to in the tables below as the “Accrued Obligation Payment”); and |

| • | For three years after the executive’s date of termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the terms of the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company will continue
benefits to the executive and/or the executive’s family at least equal to those that would have been provided to them in accordance with benefit plans, programs, practices and policies, including
medical, disability, group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and programs, if the executive’s employment had not been terminated or, if more favorable to the executive, as in
effect generally at any time thereafter. However, if the executive becomes reemployed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical benefits under another employer-provided plan, the
medical benefits provided by the Company will be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of eligibility. |

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and any persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Brink’s Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater-than-10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that, during 2006, its officers, directors and greater-than-10% beneficial owners were in compliance with all applicable filing requirements.

PROPOSAL NO. 2—APPROVAL OF THE SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has, subject to shareholder approval, selected KPMG as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007 and recommends approval of such selection by the shareholders. KPMG served in this capacity for the year 2006. One or more representatives of KPMG are expected to attend the annual meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Fees Paid to KPMG

The following table lists fees billed by KPMG for services rendered in fiscal years 2005 and 2006.

(In thousands)
Audit Fees	$ 6,139	$ 9,937
Audit-Related Fees	156	209
Tax Fees	391	651
All Other Fees	4	9
Total Fees	$ 6,690	$ 10,806

Audit Fees are primarily for professional services provided in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements and review of quarterly consolidated financial statements (including the audit of management’s assessment of internal controls required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) and audit services provided in connection with other statutory or regulatory filings.

Audit-Related Fees primarily include fees for assurance services that are reasonably related to the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and for services in connection with audits of the Company’s pension and other employee benefit plans.

Tax Fees primarily include fees associated with tax compliance and tax advice, as well as domestic and international tax planning. This category also includes tax planning on mergers and acquisitions and restructurings, as well as other services related to tax disclosure and filing requirements.

All Other Fees are for services provided to the Company not otherwise included in the categories above, including assistance with applications for grants and incentives.

Consideration of Auditor Independence

The Audit Committee has concluded that the provision of the non-audit services by KPMG is compatible with maintaining their independence.

Recommendation

THE AUDIT AND ETHICS COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.
