INCOME AND LOSSES; ALLOCATION; DISTRIBUTIONS

3.01. Allocation of Company Income and Loss.

(a) Subject to Sections 3.01(b) and 3.02 hereof, Company Income and Company Loss for each Accounting Period shall be allocated to and among all Members pro rata, based on their respective Sharing Percentages as of the first day of such Accounting Period. Each Member’s Capital Account balance shall be adjusted at the end of each Accounting Period by an amount equal to such allocations.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 3.01(a), at such time as the Company makes any adjustments pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, Company Income and Company Loss shall be allocated among the Members as follows:

(1) First, to the Members in such proportions and such amounts, as determined by the Managing Member, as shall be necessary to cause the Capital Percentage of each Member to equal (or to be closer to) the Sharing Percentage of such Member; and

(2) Second, to all Members in proportion to their respective Sharing Percentages.

(c) For purposes of determining the Company Income, Company Loss, or any other items allocable to any Accounting Period, Company Income, Company Loss and any such other items will be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis (but no less frequently than once annually), as determined by the Managing Member using any permissible method described in Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder; provided that Company Income, Company Loss, and such other items will be allocated at such times as the Gross Asset Values of the Company are adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (c) of the definition of Gross Asset Value in Article I.

3.02. Tax Allocations.

(a) Allocations for Income Tax Purposes. The income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Company shall be allocated for federal, state and local income tax purposes among the Members, pro rata based on their Sharing Percentage. If any Interest is transferred, or is increased or decreased by reason of the admission of a new Member or otherwise, during any Accounting Period, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company for such Accounting Period allocable may be allocated based on any method consistent with Section 706(d) of the Code, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member.

(b) Section 704(c) Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 3.02, in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its fair market value on the date of contribution. Allocations pursuant to this Section 3.02(b) are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes. As such, they shall not affect or in any way be taken into account in computing a Member’s Capital Account or share of Company Income, Company Loss, or other items or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

3.03. Distributions. Subject to applicable Law and any limitations contained elsewhere in this Agreement, distributions of all capital, earnings, income and other distributable items from the Company (a) shall be made at such times as the Managing Member shall determine from time to time and (b) shall be made to Members pro rata in proportion to their respective Units. Distributions may take the form of cash, securities or other property, as determined by the Managing Member.

3.04. Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding Section 3.03 hereof, on or before the date that estimated income taxes are required to be paid, the Managing Member shall determine the Tax Allowance Amount for each Member in respect of such quarter. Upon such determination, the Company shall distribute each Member’s Tax Allowance Amount to such Member. All such distributions shall have priority over any distributions pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof. Amounts distributed pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall be treated as distributions for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be offset against and reduce subsequent distributions made pursuant to Section 3.03.

3.05. Restrictions on Distributions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.03 and 3.04 hereof to the contrary, no distribution shall be made to the Members if such distribution would (i) violate any contract or agreement to which the Company is then a party or any Law then applicable to the Company, (ii) have the effect of rendering the Company insolvent or (iii) result in the Company having net capital lower than that required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not make a distribution to a Member to the extent that at the time of the distribution, after giving effect to the distribution, the aggregate of the liabilities of the Company and liabilities for which the recourse of creditors is limited to specified property of the Company, exceed the fair value of the assets of the Company (including, without limitation, the fair value of the Company’s goodwill), except that the fair value of property that is subject to a liability for which the recourse of creditors is limited shall be included in the assets of the Company only to the extent that the fair value of that property exceeds that liability.

3.06. Withholding. Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay to any appropriate taxing authority any taxes payable by the Company as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company; if and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold and pay any such taxes, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Company in the amount of the sum withheld as of the time such withholding is required to be paid to any appropriate taxing authority, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution to such Member to the extent that the Member is then entitled to receive a distribution.

3.07. Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Member. If the Company is required by law to make any payment to a Governmental or Regulatory Entity that is specifically attributable to a Member or a Member’s status as such (including federal withholding taxes, state or local personal property taxes and state or local unincorporated business taxes), then such Member shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount

paid (including interest, penalties and related expenses). A Member’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 3.07 shall survive termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 3.07, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 3.07, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification, with interest calculated at a rate equal to Prime Rate plus 2% (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by law).

ARTICLE IV
COSTS AND EXPENSES

4.01. Operating Costs. The Company shall (i) pay, or cause to be paid, all costs, fees, operating expenses and other expenses of the Company (including the costs, fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants or other professionals and the compensation of all personnel providing services to the Company) incurred in pursuing and conducting, or otherwise related to, the activities of the Company, and (ii) in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, reimburse the Managing Member or any member of the Executive Committee, any Administrative Officer, or any Company employee for any out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses incurred by them in connection therewith.

The foregoing Power of Attorney is hereby declared to be a power coupled with an interest and irrevocable, and shall not be revoked by the death of a Class B Member and shall extend to such Class B Member’s Permitted Transferees.

5.06. Voting. The Class B Units shall have no voting or consent rights except as set forth in Sections 6.03, 7.01(b), 8.01(a) and 11.01. If a vote, consent or approval of the Class B Members is required by this Agreement, then each such Class B Member shall have one vote for each Class B Unit held by such Class B Member.

5.07. Non-Solicitation/Non Compete.

(a) In consideration of the Class B Units granted and to be granted to the Employee Members from time to time by the Company, each Employee Member agrees that during the entire term of the Non-Compete Period applicable to such Employee Member, such employee shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, owner, partner, investor, member, adviser, representative, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise, provide Investment Advisory Services, except in the performance of his duties with the Company Group, or engage, or assist others to engage, in whole or in part, in any business in competition with the business of the Company Group.

(b) In consideration of the Class B Units granted and to be granted to the Employee Members from time to time by the Company Group, each Employee Member agrees that during the entire term of the Non-Solicitation Period applicable to such Employee Member, such Employee Member shall not, directly or indirectly (other than in the course of performing his duties to the Company Group) (i) solicit the hiring of or hire any employee of the Company Group or any Person who, within the prior six months had been an employee of the Company Group, assist in, or encourage such hiring by any Person or encourage any such employee to terminate or alter his relationship with the Company Group; (ii) in competition with the Company Group, solicit, seek, induce, pursue in any way, or accept a business relationship of any kind with, any Person who is a Client of the Company Group, including by way of indirect or sub-advisory arrangements (such obligation to include the duty of the Employee Member to decline any such offered business activity even if unsolicited); (iii) otherwise solicit, encourage or induce any Client to terminate or reduce its business or relationship with the Company Group; or (iv) otherwise take any action or have any communication with any Person which purpose is, or the reasonably likely effect of which could be, to cause any such Client to terminate, alter, reduce, modify or restrict in any way its relationship or business with the Company Group.

(c) In the event that the Employee Member, upon notice from the Company of an inadvertent breach of Section 5.07(b) by such Employee Member, promptly pays to the Company all fees and other compensation that are earned by such Employee Member during the Non-Solicitation Period in connection with such breach, such inadvertent breach shall not be treated as a breach resulting in a forfeiture of Class B Units pursuant to Section 6.02(b)(2) or (3).

(d) Each Employee Member acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 5.07 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company. Each Employee Member further agrees that irreparable injury will result to the Company in the event of any breach of any of the terms of Section 5.07, and that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in Section 5.07, the Company will have no adequate remedy at Law. Each Employee Member accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by such Employee Member of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.07, the Company shall be entitled to seek such injunctive and other equitable relief as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by a court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages and without posting any bond or other security.

(e) If any court of competent jurisdiction shall at any time deem the term of any particular restrictive covenant contained in this Section 5.07 too lengthy or the geographic scope too extensive, the other provisions of this Section 5.07 shall nevertheless stand, the Non-Compete Period and the Non-Solicitation Period applicable to such Employee Member shall be deemed to be the longest period permissible by applicable Law under the circumstances and the geographic scope shall be deemed to comprise the largest territory permissible by applicable Law under the circumstances. The court in each case shall reduce the Non-Compete Period, the Non-Solicitation Period and/or geographic scope to permissible duration or size.

(f) During the six (6) month period following the termination of employment of a 1% Member with the Company Group, the Managing Member may, in its sole discretion, elect to cause the Company Group to provide base and bonus compensation to such 1% Member at the same rate and the same time as it was then compensating such 1% Member, provided that the bonus component of such compensation applicable to such six (6) month period shall equal 50% (subject to reduction pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 5.07(f)) of the annual bonus earned by such 1% Member most recently prior to such termination of employment and shall be paid in cash promptly following the end of such six (6) month period. In the event the Managing Member elects to provide such 1% Member such compensation, the Non-Compete Period applicable to such 1% Member shall continue until the last day of such six (6) month period. In order to make such election, the Managing Member shall, within five (5) Business Days upon issuing to or receiving from a 1% Member a written notice of termination of employment, notify such 1% Member in writing whether the Company Group will provide such base and bonus compensation for such six (6) month period. If the Managing Member does not timely make such an election, then the Non-Compete Period shall end when such 1% Member’s employment with the Company Group terminates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a 1% Member gives a notice of termination of employment at least fourteen (14) days in advance of such termination, (i) such 1% Members’ Non-Compete Period shall be reduced, for up to ninety (90) days, by the number of days elapsed between the date of such notice and the date of the termination of such 1% Member’s employment (such number, the “Reduced Number of Days”), (ii) the period during which the Company shall provide compensation pursuant to this Section 5.07(f) shall be reduced by the Reduced Number of Days and (iii) the percentage contained in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 5.07(f) (including with respect to the annual bonus) shall equal the product of 50% multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is 182 minus the Reduced Number of Days and the denominator of which is 182.

5.08. Confidentiality; Work for Hire. In consideration of the benefits provided in this Agreement, each Employee Member hereby agrees to the following:

(a) During the entire term of the Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group, the Employee Member will have access to and become acquainted with confidential proprietary information of the Company Group, including, without limitation, confidential or proprietary investment methodologies and models, market analysis, trade secrets, know-how, designs, formulae, software programs, proprietary or confidential plans, client identities and relationships, compilations of information, client lists or files, service providers, business operations or techniques, records, specifications, and data owned or used in the course of business by the Company Group (collectively, “Confidential Information”). The Employee Member shall not disclose any of the Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, or use it in any way, either during the Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group or at any time thereafter, except as required in the course of the Employee Member’s employment by the Company Group. All files, records, documents, drawings, specifications, equipment and similar items relating to the business of the Company Group, whether prepared by the Employee Member or otherwise coming into the Employee Member’s possession, will remain the exclusive property of the Company Group, and if removed from the premises of the Company Group will be immediately returned to the Company Group upon any termination of the Employee Member’s employment.

(b) Each Employee Member agrees that any and all presently existing investment advisory businesses of the Company Group and all businesses developed by the Company Group, including by the Employee Member or any other employee or agent of the Company Group, including all investment methodologies, all client investment advisory contracts, fees and fee schedules, commissions, records, data, client lists, agreements, trade secrets, and any other incident of any business developed by the Company Group or earned or carried on by the Employee Member for the Company Group, and all trade names, service marks and logos under which the Company Group does business, and any combinations or variations thereof, are and shall be, the exclusive property of the Company Group for its sole use, and (where applicable) shall be, payable directly to the Company Group. In addition, the Employee Member acknowledges and agrees that the investment performance of the accounts managed by the Company Group is attributable to the efforts of the team of professionals of the Company Group (including by the Employee Member during the Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group) and not to the efforts of any single individual, and that, therefore, (i) the performance records of the accounts managed by the Company Group (including by the Employee Member during the Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group) are and shall be the exclusive property of the Company Group and (ii) such records may not be used or cited by such Employee Member at any time except as required in the course of the Employee Member’s employment by the Company Group or with the prior written consent of the Managing Member.

(c) As used in this Section 5.08, the term “Confidential Information” does not include information that the Employee Member can document (i) becomes or has been generally

available to the public other than as a result of the Employee Member’s or its representative’s disclosure; (ii) was available to the Employee Member on a non confidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Company Group; or (iii) is independently developed or becomes available to the Employee Member on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company Group.

(d) The Employee Member agrees that the Employee Member has not and will not during the term of the Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group: (i) improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former employer or other Person with which the Employee Member has an agreement or duty to keep in confidence information acquired by the Employee Member, if any; or (ii) bring onto the premises of the Company Group any document or confidential or proprietary information belonging to such employer or Person unless consented to in writing by such employer or Person. The Employee Member will indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of suit, arising out of or in connection with any violation of the foregoing.

(e) The Employee Member recognizes that the Company Group may have received, and in the future may receive, from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty on the Company Group’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. The Employee Member agrees that the Employee Member owes the Company Group and such third parties, during the Employee Member’s employment by the Company Group and thereafter, a duty to hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any Person and to use it in a manner consistent with, and for the limited purposes permitted by, the Company Group’s agreement with such third party.

(f) In the event of the Employee Member’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever, the Employee Member agrees promptly to surrender and deliver to the Company all records, notes, materials, equipment, drawings, documents and data of any nature pertaining to any Confidential Information or to his employment, and the Employee Member will not retain or take with the Employee Member any tangible materials containing or pertaining to any Confidential Information that the Employee Member may produce, acquire or obtain access to during the course of his employment.

(g) Works Made for Hire.

(1) The Employee Member acknowledges that all work performed by the Employee Member for the Company Group, including without limitation copyrights, patents, inventions or any other works (collectively, the “Works”), shall be considered “works made for hire” as defined in the United States Copyright Act, as amended. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company is the Person for whom this work is prepared and is considered the sole and original author of any work done by the Employee Member hereunder. Therefore, the Company owns all of the right, title and interest in

and to the Works, and shall have the sole and exclusive right (and may grant to others the right) in perpetuity throughout the universe, to copyright, use, modify, change, adapt or exploit the Works (and permit others to do the same) by any means, for any purpose, in any media, now known or hereafter devised. The Employee Member hereby waives any and all moral rights that he, or any Person working on his behalf, may have pursuant to any Laws or in any jurisdiction regarding the Works.

(2) In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction ever determines that any of the Works are not “works made for hire,” then such Works and all rights therein shall be deemed assigned to the Company (and/or its successors or assigns). The foregoing assignment includes all worldwide rights of any kind in and to the Works (whether or not such rights are recognized in the United States or any other country in the world) including, all rights incident to copyright ownership (including renewals or extensions), to claims for damages by reason of past infringement and to the right to xxx and recover such damages for the use and benefit of the Company. Upon the Company’s reasonable request, the Employee Member agrees to execute additional documents, if any, necessary to evidence, establish, maintain or protect the Company Group’s (or its licensees’, successors’ or assigns’) rights in and ownership of the Works and hereby appoints the Company (and its successors or assigns) as his attorney-in-fact to execute such documents.

5.09. New Class B Members and Issuance of Class B Units. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Managing Member may admit one (1) or more additional Class B Members or issue additional Class B Units to an existing Class B Member at any time. As determined by the Managing Member, the admission of additional Class B Members may result in dilution of the Interests of the Company’s then existing Members. No existing Member shall be entitled to be compensated or reimbursed on account of any such dilution, nor will any Member be entitled to rights of first refusal, pre-emptive rights or any other rights or benefits as a result of the issuance of additional Units to any existing Member or the admission of a new Class B Member. The Managing Member may do all things appropriate or convenient in connection with the issuance of Units or the admission of any additional Class B Member. The admission of an additional Class B Member to the Company shall not dissolve the Company.

5.10. Investment Representations of Members. Each Member hereby represents, warrants and acknowledges to the Company that:

(a) Such Member has all requisite power to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement; the performance of its obligations hereunder will not result in a breach or a violation of, or a default under, any material agreement or instrument by which such Member or any of such Member’s properties is bound or any statute, rule, regulation, order or other law to which it is subject, nor require the obtaining of any consent, approval, permit or license from or filing with, any governmental authority or other Person by such Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by such Member of this Agreement.

(b) This Agreement constitutes (assuming its due authorization and execution by the other Members) such Member’s legal, valid and binding obligation.

similar instruments or accounts as the Board of Directors of the Managing Member deems reasonably necessary for the Managing Member to carry out its responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement.

(d) The Managing Member shall, directly, maintain at all times ownership of all outstanding Class A Units, and shall not permit any Person to possess or exercise a right or ability to remove, replace, appoint or elect the Managing Member of the Company.

(i) at any time the Managing Member issues any equity securities other than pursuant to the 2007 Plan, the Managing Member shall immediately contribute all the cash proceeds, assets or other consideration or payments received from or in respect of the issuance of securities and from the exercise of any rights contained in any such securities, including from a Class B Member in respect of such issuance (collectively, the “Equity Proceeds”) (x) to the Company and the Company shall immediately issue to the Managing Member, in exchange for the Equity Proceeds contributed to the Company and any deemed Capital Contributions pursuant to Section 5.11(e)(iii), (A) in the case of an issuance of a Class A Share, one Class A Unit, and (B) in the case of an issuance of any other equity securities by the Managing Member, a new class or series of units or other equity securities with designations, preferences and other rights, terms and provisions that are substantially the same as those of such Managing Member’s equity securities equal in number to the number of the Managing Member’s equity securities issued or, (y) if otherwise agreed in writing by the Managing Member and any other Member, to such Member and such Member shall immediately transfer to the Manager, in exchange for such Equity Proceeds, applicable Class B Units held by such Member, which Class B Units shall be automatically converted upon transfer, (A) in the case of an issuance of a Class A Share, one Class A Unit or, (B) in the case of an issuance of any other securities by the Managing Member, a new class or series of units or other equity securities with designations, preferences and other rights, terms and provisions that are substantially the same as those of such Managing Member’s equity securities equal in number to the number of the Managing Member’s equity securities issued;

(ii) at any time the Managing Member issues a Class A Share pursuant to the 2007 Plan (whether pursuant to the exercise of a stock option or the grant of a stock award or otherwise), (x) the Managing Member shall be deemed to have contributed to the Company an amount of cash equal to the per share closing price of its Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the trading day immediately prior to the date of such issuance (or, if earlier, on the date the related option is exercised) and shall concurrently transfer the Equity Proceeds, if any, to the Company (such Equity Proceeds shall not constitute a Capital Contribution) and (y) the Company shall be deemed to have purchased from the Managing Member the Class A Shares for the amount of cash deemed contributed by the Managing Member to the Company pursuant to clause (x) above and shall issue one Class A Unit to the Managing Member; and

(iii) in the event of any issuance of Class A Shares by the Managing Member, and the contribution to the Company, by the Managing Member, of the cash proceeds or other consideration or payments received from or in respect of such issuance (including from a Class B Member in respect of such issuance), if the cash proceeds or other consideration or payments actually received by the Managing Member are less than the gross proceeds of such issuance as a result of any underwriter’s discount or other expenses paid or incurred in connection with such issuance (after giving effect to any consideration or payments paid by Class B Members in respect of such issuance), the Managing Member shall be deemed to have made a capital contribution to the Company in the amount equal to the sum of the cash proceeds or other consideration or payments of such issuance plus the amount of such underwriter’s discount and other expenses paid by the Managing Member, which discount and expense shall be treated as an expense for the benefit of the Company for purposes of Section 4.01.

ARTICLE VI
TRANSFER OF UNITS

6.01. Transfer of Units.

(a) No Class B Member or transferee thereof shall, without the prior written consent of the Managing Member, which may be withheld in its sole discretion, create, or suffer the creation of, a Lien in such Member’s Units.

(b) The Managing Member shall not Transfer any Class A Units.

(c) No Class B Member shall Transfer, or suffer the Transfer of, such Class B Member’s Units (including by way of indirect transfer resulting from the direct or indirect transfer of control of any entity which is a Class B Member), in whole or in part, nor enter into any agreement as the result of which any Person shall become interested with such Class B Member therein except subject to Section 6.01(d), (i) with the prior written consent of the Managing Member, which may be withheld in its sole discretion, (ii) by last will and testament to: (A) spouses or lineal descendants, (B) inter vivos trusts, (C) family limited partnerships or similar entities or (D) devices for the benefit of spouses and lineal descendants, on the condition in each case that each Transferee thereof expressly acknowledges and agrees in writing that such transferred Interests (or a portion thereof) are subject to this Agreement and all of the terms and conditions hereof or (iii) pursuant to Exhibit B hereof.

(d) Except with the written consent of the Managing Member, no Transfer of a Unit shall be permitted (and, if attempted, shall be void ab initio) if, in the determination of the Managing Member,

(1) such Transfer is made to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own such Unit;

(2) such Transfer would require the registration of such transferred Unit or of any class of Unit pursuant to any applicable United States federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) or other foreign securities laws or would constitute a non-exempt distribution pursuant to applicable state securities laws;

(3) to the extent requested by the Managing Member, the Company does not receive such legal and/or tax opinions and written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as an Assignee) that are in a form satisfactory to the Managing Member, as determined in the Managing Member’s sole discretion;

(4) such a Transfer would pose a material risk that the Company would be a “publicly traded partnership” as defined in Section 7704 of the Code;

(5) such Transfer would result in 50 percent or more of the Company’s total “partnership interests” having been “sold or exchanged” in any 12 month period (within the meaning of Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code) and the resulting termination of the Company pursuant to Section 708(b)(1)(B) would, in the determination of the Managing Member, have a more than immaterial adverse effect on the Company or the Members; or

(6) in the case of a Class B Unit, such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the Class B Stockholders Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 6.02(b), (i) at any time prior to or following a Transfer of Class B Units by a Class B Member, the transferring Class B Member, the transferee and the Managing Member may agree in writing, in the sole discretion of each such Person, that all or any portion of the Class B Units that may be forfeited by a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 6.02(b) shall instead be forfeited by the Employee Member that transferred such Class B Units; and (ii) with respect to any Class B Units transferred by an Employee Member to a Permitted Transferee prior to the date hereof, such Class B Units shall not be subject to forfeiture by such Permitted Transferee and such Employee Member shall instead forfeit an additional number of Class B Units equal to the number of Class B Units that otherwise would have been forfeited by such Permitted Transferees pursuant to Section 6.02(b) (for example, if an Ordinary Employee Member transferred twenty (20) Class B Units to a Permitted Transferee prior to the date hereof, retained eighty (80) Class B Units and thereafter breached Section 5.07 during the term of his employment, such Ordinary Employee Member shall forfeit twenty five (25) Class B Units and such Permitted Transferee shall not forfeit any Class B Units).

(f) Any purported Transfer of Units not in compliance with this Section 6.01 shall be void and shall not create any obligation of the party of the Company or its Members to recognize such Transfer.

6.02. Vesting and Forfeiture of Units.

(a) Vesting of Units.

(1) Units Held by the Managing Member and the Non-Employee Members. All Class A Units held by the Managing Member and, except as may be agreed in writing by the Managing Member and a Non-Employee Member, all Class B Units held by a Non-Employee Member shall be fully vested and shall not be subject to forfeiture under this Section 6.02 for any reason.

(2) Units Held by Employee Members and their Permitted Transferees. All Class B Units shall be vested or subject to vesting provisions as set forth on the Register of Members. Unvested Class B Units shall vest in accordance with the Plan under which such Class B Units were issued. Except as may be agreed in writing by the Managing Member and a Class B Member, Class B Units held by a Permitted Transferee of an Employee Member shall vest at the same times as such Class B Units would have vested had such Class B Units continued to be held by such Employee Member.

(3) Forfeiture of Unvested Class B Units. Except as provided in the Plan pursuant to which an unvested Class B Unit is issued or as otherwise may be agreed in writing by the Company and a Class B Member, all unvested Class B Units held by an Employee Member and all unvested Class B Units transferred by such Employee Member to, and held by, his or her Permitted Transferees, on the date of termination of employment of such Employee Member with the Company Group shall be forfeited upon such termination.

(b) Additional Forfeiture of Class B Units.

(1) Termination for Cause. Subject to Section 6.01(e), in the event that an Employee Member’s employment by the Company Group has been terminated for Cause, such Employee Member and each of his or her Permitted Transferees shall each forfeit seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of vested Class B Units and one hundred percent (100%) of the unvested Class B Units held by such Member as of the date of such termination, unless the Board of Directors of the Managing Member, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise.

(2) Initial Managing Principal Breach of Restrictive Covenants. Subject to Section 6.01(e), in the event that an Initial Managing Principal breaches Section 5.07 during the term of his employment with the Company Group or during the three years period following such term of employment, in addition to any forfeiture that may result from the application of Section 6.02(a)(3) (should such breach result in a termination of employment), unless the Board of Directors of the Managing Member, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise, such Initial Managing Principal and each of his or her Permitted Transferees shall each forfeit one hundred percent (100%) of unvested Class B Units, and the excess of (A) fifty (50%) of the number of vested Class B Units held by such Member as of the earlier of (i) the date of such breach and (ii) the date of termination of such Initial Managing Principal’s employment with the Company Group

over (B) the aggregate number of vested Class B Units (if any) previously forfeited by such Member under this Section 6.03(b)(2).

(3) Ordinary Employee Member Breach of Restrictive Covenants. Subject to Section 6.01(e), in the event that an Ordinary Employee Member breaches Section 5.07 during the term of his or her employment or during the eighteen (18) month period following such term of employment, in addition to any forfeiture that may result from the application of Section 6.02(a)(3) (should such breach result in a termination of employment) , unless the Board of Directors of the Managing Member, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise, such Ordinary Employee Member and each of his or her Permitted Transferees shall each forfeit one hundred percent (100%) of unvested Class B Units, and the excess of (A) 25% of the number of vested Class B Units held by such Member as of the earlier of (i) the date of such breach and (ii) the date of termination of such Ordinary Employee Member’s employment with the Company Group over (B) the aggregate number of vested Class B Units (if any) previously forfeited by such Member under this Section 6.03(b)(3).

(c) Consequences of Forfeiture. In the event a Class B Member’s Class B Units are forfeited pursuant to Section 6.02(b), (i) the exact number of Class B Units (if not a whole number) shall be determined by rounding to the nearest whole number of Class B Units, (ii) such Class B Member shall cease to hold such number of Class B Units, (iii) forfeited Class B Units shall be held in the treasury of the Company and thereafter may be awarded pursuant to a Plan and (iv) the Managing Member shall reflect the reduction of the number of units by revising the Register of Members. In addition, such Class B Member shall reasonably cooperate with the Managing Member to assist in the redemption of an equal number of Class B Shares held by such Class B Member.

6.03. Drag Along Rights. If holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Class B Units held by Class B Members (the “Selling Holders”) propose to sell to a third party any Class B Units held by such Class B Members (including Class B Units transferred by such Class B Members to, and held by, their Permitted Transferees) (whether such sale is by way of purchase, merger, recapitalization or other form of transaction), then upon (i) the request of the Selling Holders and (ii) the consent of the Managing Member and a Majority in Interest of Class B Members, each other Class B Member, shall sell the same percentage, as applicable, of the Class B Units beneficially owned by such Class B Member to such third party buyer pursuant to the same terms and conditions negotiated by the Selling Holders for the sale of the Class B Units held by the Selling Holders. For example, if the Selling Holders propose to sell 35% of the Class B Units held by each of them, any other Member shall, upon request of the Selling Holders and the consent of the Managing Member and the Majority in Interest of Class B Members, sell 35% of the Class B Units held by such other Class B Member. Each of the Class B Members agrees to such sale and to execute such agreements, powers of attorney, voting proxies or other documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to consummate such sale. Each of the Class B Members further agrees to timely take such other actions as the Managing Member may reasonably request as necessary in connection with the consummation of such sale. Each

Class B Member shall be required to make customary representations and warranties in connection with such transfer with respect to his, her or its own authority to transfer his, her or its title to the Class B Units transferred, together with such other representations and warranties with respect to the Company as are made by the Selling Holders in connection with such sale; provided, however, that the liability of each Class B Member with respect to the representations and warranties concerning the Company shall be limited to his pro rata portion of the proceeds paid in such sale. Each Class B Member shall pay his pro rata portion (based on the total value of the consideration received by such Class B Member compared to the aggregate consideration received by all Members in the transaction) of the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with a sale consummated pursuant to this Section 6.03.

7.02. Executive Committee. The Company shall have an executive committee (the “Executive Committee”) to which the Managing Member may delegate such power and authority as the Managing Member may determine, subject to the right of Managing Member to revoke or modify such delegation.

7.08. Indemnification, Reliance and Fiduciary Duty.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold any Covered Person harmless from and against any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in defense of any demands, claims or lawsuits against such Covered Person in or as a result of or relating to its capacity, acts or omissions as Managing Member, Executive Committee member, Chief Compliance Officer, Administrative Officer or as an agent, employee, officer, adviser, or consultant, concerning the business, or activities undertaken on behalf of the Company, including any demands, claims or lawsuits initiated by a Member or resulting from or relating to the offer and sale of the Units in the Company, provided that the acts or omissions of such Covered Person are not the result of fraud, intentional misconduct or a violation of the implied contractual duty of good faith and fair dealing, or such a lesser standard of conduct as under applicable Law prevents indemnification hereunder or were taken in the knowledge that such actions were not within the stated purposes and powers of the Company (the “Disabling Conduct”).

A Covered Person shall be entitled to receive, upon application, advances to cover the costs of defending any claim or action against such Covered Person; provided, however, that such advances shall be repaid to the Company if such Covered Person violated any of the standards set forth in the preceding paragraph. All rights of a Covered Person shall survive the dissolution of the Company and the death, retirement, removal, dissolution, incompetency or insolvency of such Covered Person, provided that notice of a potential claim for indemnification hereunder is made by or on behalf of such Covered Person seeking such indemnification prior to the time distribution in liquidation of the property of the Company is made pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof.

(b) Reliance. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person (other than such Covered Person) as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, including

information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to Members might properly be paid.

(c) Fiduciary Duty. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Covered Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating to the Company or to another Member or any Affiliate of another Member, a Covered Person acting pursuant to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement shall not be liable to the Company or to another Member or any Affiliate of another Member for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they expand or restrict the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at law or equity, are agreed by the Members to modify to that extent such other duties and liabilities of the Covered Person to the extent permitted by law.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between the Managing Member and the Company or another Member, or (ii) whenever this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein provides that the Managing Member shall act in a manner that is fair and reasonable to the Company or any other Member, the Managing Member shall resolve such conflict of interest or take such action, considering in each case the relative interest of the Company, each other Member and the Managing Member, to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. So long as the Managing Member acts, based on the foregoing sentence, in good faith and in a manner consistent with the foregoing sentence, the resolution or action so made or taken by the Managing Member shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or under applicable Law, whenever in this Agreement the Managing Member is permitted or required to make a decision or take an action or omit to do any of the foregoing acting solely in its capacity as the Managing Member, the Managing Member shall, except where an express standard is set forth, be entitled to make such decision in its sole discretion (and the words “in its sole discretion” should be deemed inserted therefor in each case in association with the words “Managing Member,” whether or not the words “sole discretion” are actually included in the specific provisions of this Agreement), and in so acting in its sole discretion the Managing Member shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and, except as set forth in the preceding paragraph in the case of a conflict of interest, shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company, any of the Company’s Affiliates, any other Member or any other Person. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, if pursuant to this Agreement the Managing Member, acting solely in its capacity as the Managing Member, is permitted or required to make a decision in its “good faith” or under another express standard, the Managing Member shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or otherwise other applicable Law.

The Managing Member may consult with the legal counsel and accountants and any act or omission suffered or taken by the Managing Member on behalf of the Company in furtherance of the interests of the Company in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such counsel or accountants will be full justification for any such act or omission, and the Managing Member will be fully protected in so acting or omitting to act so long as such counsel or accountants were selected with reasonable care.

(d) Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Covered Person against any liability asserted against such Covered Person, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnity such Covered Person against such liability under the provision of this Section 7.08.

(c) The Managing Member, or a Person designated by the Managing Member who is a Member, shall be the Company’s Tax Matters Partner (as that term is defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code) in the event of an income tax audit of any Company return.

EXCHANGE

2.01. Exchange Dates; Exchange Notices.

(a) The Managing Member shall establish one or more dates in each Annual Period as a date on which the Class B Members shall be permitted to Exchange their Class B Units (such date, an “Exchange Date”), provided that the Managing Member may, by notice to each Class B Member, postpone any Exchange Date one or more times; provided, further, that if the Managing Member fails to establish at least one Exchange Date during any Annual Period, the last Business Day of such Annual Period shall be an Exchange Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Managing Member may establish as many Exchange Dates as it shall determine in its sole discretion.

(b) The Managing Member shall provide, in respect of at least one (1) Exchange Date in each Annual Period, a written notice (an “Exchange Notice”) to all Class B Members at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to such Exchange Date. In respect of any other Exchange Date within such Annual Period, the Managing Member may provide an Exchange Notice to one or more Class B Members such number of days prior to such Exchange Date as the Managing Member may determine in its sole discretion.

(c) The Managing Member may permit, in writing or orally, one or more Class B Members to submit Exchange Requests, such permission to be granted, withheld or granted on such terms and conditions as determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion.

2.02. Permissible Exchanges by Class B Members.

(a) Employee Members.

(1) General Rule. Subject to Sections 2.2(a)(ii) and (iii), 2.2(c) and 2.5, during any Annual Period commencing on or following the First Effective Date and until the date of termination of employment of an Employee Member, each Employee Member and all Permitted Transferees of such Employee Member (collectively, the “Employee Member Group”) shall be permitted collectively to Exchange a number of vested Class B Units in an amount of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate number of vested and unvested Class B Units held by such Employee Member Group as of the first day of such Annual Period in which the applicable Exchange occurs, provided that, in the event the members of an Employee Member Group submit requests to Exchange a number of vested Class B Units that is greater than the number permitted under this Section 2.2(a)(i) and such members are unable to resolve any dispute among themselves as to the number of Class B Units that each member may Exchange within five (5) Business Days of notice by the Managing Member of such dispute, then each member of such Employee Member Group shall be permitted to Exchange a number of vested Class B Units in an amount of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the vested and unvested Class B Units held by such member of such Employee Member Group as of the first Business Day of such Annual Period.

(2) Initial Managing Principals. Notwithstanding Section 2.2(a)(i) but subject to Sections 2.2(c) and 2.5, during the period beginning on the day following the date of termination of employment of an Initial Managing Principal and ending on and including the third anniversary of such date, no Initial Managing Principal, nor any Permitted Transferee of such Initial Managing Principal, may Exchange vested Class B Units held by such Initial Managing Principal or such Permitted Transferee, as the case may be. Thereafter, an Initial Managing Principal and his Permitted Transferees shall be permitted to Exchange any or all of the vested Class B Units held by such Initial Managing Principal and his Permitted Transferees.

(3) Ordinary Employee Members. Notwithstanding Section 2.2(a)(i) but subject to Sections 2.2(c) and 2.5, (A) during the period beginning on the day following the date of termination of employment of an Ordinary Employee Member and ending on and including the first anniversary of such date, no Ordinary Employee Member, nor any Permitted Transferee of such Ordinary Employee Member, may Exchange vested Class B Units held by such Ordinary Employee Member or such Permitted Transferee, as the case may be and (B) beginning on the day following the first anniversary of the date of termination of employment of an Ordinary Employee Member and ending six

months thereafter, if an Exchange Date occurs during such six month period, an Ordinary Employee Member, and each Permitted Transferee of such Ordinary Employee Member, shall be permitted to Exchange any number of vested Class B Units, provided that, except as may be agreed in writing by the Managing Member, such Ordinary Employee Member shall continue to hold throughout such period at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of vested and unvested Class B Units held by such Ordinary Employee Member and all Permitted Transferees of such Ordinary Employee Member on the date of termination of employment of such Ordinary Employee Member. Thereafter, an Ordinary Employee Member and all Permitted Transferees of such Ordinary Employee Member shall be permitted to Exchange any or all of the vested Class B Units held by such Ordinary Employee Member and such Permitted Transferees.

(b) Non-Employee Members. Subject to Sections 2.2(c) and 2.5, during any Annual Period that begins on the First Effective Date and ends on the third anniversary of the IPO Date, each Non-Employee Member shall be permitted to Exchange a number of vested Class B Units in an amount up to fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate number of vested and unvested Class B Units held by such Non-Employee Member as of the first day of such Annual Period in which the applicable Exchange occurs. Following the third anniversary of the date hereof, each Non-Employee Member shall be permitted to Exchange any or all of the vested Class B Units held by such Non-Employee Member on an applicable Exchange Date.

(c) Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 2.2(a) and (b), (i) following the First Effective Date, the Managing Member may permit any Class B Member to exchange vested Class B units in amounts exceeding those described in Section 2.2(a) and (b), which permission may be withheld, delayed, or granted on such terms and conditions as the Managing Member may determine in its sole discretion and (ii) in the event that the amount of income taxes payable by a member of an Employee Member Group due to the grant or vesting of Class B Units, the exercise of options to acquire Class B Units and/or the Exchange of Class B Units for Class A Shares (whether or not such member is or was an employee of the Company Group at the time that such tax payment obligation arises) exceeds the net proceeds such member would receive upon the sale of the Class A Shares issued to such member in exchange for vested Class B Units pursuant to this Section 2.2(a), as reasonably determined by the Managing Member based upon such reasonable simplifying assumptions as the Managing Member may make, such member shall instead be entitled to Exchange for Class A Shares the number of vested Class B Units such that the net proceeds from the sale of such Class A Shares would enable such member to satisfy such tax obligations, as reasonably determined by the Managing Member.

(d) Restrictions on Class A Shares. Each Class B Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) neither the Company nor the Managing Member shall have any obligation to deliver Class A Shares that have been registered under the Securities Act, and (ii) the Company reserves the right on any Exchange Date to provide registered Class A Shares, unregistered Class A Shares or any combination of thereof, as it may determine in its sole

discretion. The Managing Member and the Company reserve the right to cause certificates evidencing such Class A Shares to be imprinted with legends as to restrictions on transfer that it may deem necessary or appropriate, including legends as to applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws or other legal or contractual restrictions and may require any Class B Member to which Class A Shares are to be distributed to agree in writing (i) that such Class A Shares will not be transferred except in compliance with such restrictions and (b) to such other matters as the Managing Member may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate in light of applicable law and existing agreements.

(e) Unvested Class B Units. For the avoidance of doubt, a Class B Member may not Exchange any unvested Class B Units at any time.

2.03. Exchange Request. Upon receiving the Exchange Notice or as permitted by the Managing Member pursuant to Section 2.1(c), a Class B Member may submit a request to effect an Exchange by delivering to the Company, not less than fourteen (14) calendar days prior to an Exchange Date (or such lesser number of days as the Managing Member may permit in its sole discretion), a written notice (the “Exchange Request”). An Exchange Request shall set forth the number of Class B Units such Class B Member elects to exchange for Class A Shares at the Closing on such Exchange Date. The Class B Member shall represent to each of the Company and the Managing Member that such Class B Member owns the Class B Units to be delivered at such Closing pursuant to Section 2.6, free and clear of all Liens, except as set forth therein, and, if there are any Liens identified in the Exchange Request, such Class B Member shall covenant that such Class B Member will deliver at the applicable Closing evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Managing Member, that all such Liens have been released. An Exchange Request is not revocable or modifiable, except with the written consent of the Managing Member and the Class B Member that submitted the request.

2.04. Closing Date.

(a) If an Exchange Request has been timely delivered pursuant to Section 2.3, then, on the next Exchange Date (as may be extended pursuant to this Section 2.4, the “Closing Date”), the parties shall effect the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Article II at the offices of Pzena Inc. at 000 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other time, at such other place, and in such other manner, as the applicable parties to such Exchange shall agree in writing; provided, however, that, except as may be determined otherwise by the Company in its sole discretion, if an applicable Exchange Date falls on a day during which directors, officers or other employees of Pzena Inc. or any of its affiliates are prohibited by the trading policies of Pzena Inc. from disposing of equity securities of Pzena Inc., then with respect to all requested Exchanges, the Closing Date shall instead be deemed to be the first Business Day after such Exchange Date that such officers and directors are allowed to dispose of equity securities of Pzena Inc. pursuant to the trading policies of Pzena Inc.

(b) No Exchange shall be permitted (and, if attempted, shall be void ab initio) if, in the good faith determination of the Managing Member, such an Exchange would pose a material risk that the Company would be a “publicly traded partnership” as defined in Section 7704 of the Code.

2.05. Closing Conditions.

(a) The obligations of any of the parties to consummate an Exchange pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the conditions that there shall be no injunction, restraining order or decree of any nature of any Governmental or Regulatory Authority that is then in effect that restrains or prohibits the Exchange of Class B Units or the transfer of Class B Shares for redemption.

(b) The obligations of the Company and the Managing Member to consummate an Exchange pursuant to this Article II with respect to a Class B Member Exchanging Class B Units at such Closing shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) Such Class B Member shall have taken all actions reasonably requested by Pzena Inc. to permit the automatic redemption, immediately following the Closing, of a number of Class B Shares equal to the number of Class B Units being Exchanged by such Class B Member at such Closing (including delivery to the Company of certificates evidencing such number of Class B Shares and confirmation that any Liens on such Class B Shares shall have been released); and

(2) If such Class B Member is not a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, such Class B Member shall have executed and delivered a counterpart signature page of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(c) The obligations of each Class B Member exchanging Class B Units at such Closing shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) Pzena Inc. shall have taken all actions reasonably required to permit the automatic redemption, immediately following the Closing, of a number of Class B Shares held by such Class B Member equal to the number of Class B Units being Exchanged by such Class B Member at such Closing; and

(2) If such Class B Member is not a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, Pzena Inc. shall have executed and delivered a copy of the Registration Rights Agreement.

2.06. Closing Deliveries. At each Closing, the Company, the Managing Member and each Class B Member that has submitted an Exchange Request in respect of such Closing shall deliver the following:

(a) each such Class B Member shall deliver an instrument of transfer, substantially in the form of Annex A hereto or otherwise in form reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member, sufficient (i) to transfer to the Company the number of vested Class B Units set forth in the Exchange Request of such Class B Member and (ii) in the case of an Employee Member, to affirm that such Class B Member agrees to comply with the covenants contained in Section 5.07 and 5.08 of the Agreement as may be applicable to such Employee Member at that time;

(b) if applicable, each such Class B Member shall deliver evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Managing Member, that all Liens on such Class B Member’s Class B Units delivered pursuant to this Section 2.6 have been released;

(c) the Managing Member shall deliver to the Company a certificate issued in the name of each such Class B Member representing an amount of Class A Shares equal to the number of Class B Units such Class B Member elected to Exchange; and

(d) the Company shall deliver to each such Class B Member a certificate representing an amount of Class A Shares equal to the number of such Class B Units such Class B Member elected to Exchange.

2.07. Expenses. Each party hereto shall bear such party’s own expenses in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not any such transaction is ultimately consummated.

2.08. Termination of Class B Membership; Cancellation of Class B Units; Issuance of Class A Units. Upon consummation of each Closing contemplated by this Article II, each Class B Unit transferred to the Company at such Closing shall be cancelled, the Company shall issue one Class A Unit to the Managing Member in respect of each such Class B Unit that was transferred and surrendered, and the Managing Member shall modify the Register of Members to reflect such cancellation and issuance. In the event that, as a result of an Exchange a Class B Member shall cease to hold any vested or unvested Class B Units, such Class B Member shall cease to be a “member” of the Company for any purpose under the Agreement or the Act.

2.09. Tax Treatment. As required by the Code and the Regulations: (i) the parties shall report an Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable sale of Class B Units by a Class B Member to the Company (in conjunction with an associated cancellation of Class B Shares) and (ii) no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.

2.10. Amendments. This Exhibit B may not be amended except as set forth in Section 11.01 of the Agreement.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth on the signature page to this Instrument and, if not defined therein, in the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (as amended or modified, the “Operating Agreement”) of the Pzena Investment Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, Transferor is the owner of the Applicable Number of vested Class B Units (the “Transferred Units”) and a party to the Operating Agreement; WHEREAS, Transferor has submitted to the Company an Exchange Request, dated as of the Exchange Request Date, electing to exchange (the “Exchange”) the Transferred Units for an equal number of Class A Shares of Pzena Inc. (the “Exchange Shares”); and WHEREAS, in connection with the Exchange, Transferor desires to transfer to the Company all of Transferor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Units. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants set forth herein and in the Operating Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledges, Transferor hereby agrees as follows:

1. Transfer. Transferor hereby transfers, assigns and delivers to the Company, free and clear of all Liens, all of Transferor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Units.

2. Representations and Warranties. Transferor hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) Transferred Units. Immediately prior to giving effect to the transfer contemplated by this Instrument, Transferor owns, beneficially and of record, the Transferred Units free and clear of any Liens.

(b) Authority of Transferor. If Transferor is not a natural person, Transferor is duly formed or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which Transferor was formed or organized. Transferor has full right, authority, power and legal capacity to enter into this Instrument and each agreement, document and instrument to be executed and delivered by Transferor pursuant to, or as contemplated by, this Instrument and to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. This Instrument and each agreement, document and instrument executed and delivered by Transferor pursuant to, or as contemplated by, this Instrument constitutes, or when executed and delivered will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligations of Transferor enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. The execution, delivery and performance by Transferor of this Instrument and each such other agreement, document and instrument:

	(i)		does not and will not violate any laws applicable to Transferor, or require Transferor to obtain any approval, consent or waiver of, or make any filing with, any person or entity (governmental or otherwise) that has not been obtained or made;

	(ii)		does not and will not result in a breach of, constitute a default under, accelerate any obligation under, or give rise to a right of termination of, any agreement, contract, instrument, lien, security interest, lease, permit, authorization, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or arbitration award to which Transferor is a party or by which the property of Transferor is bound or affected, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of the assets of Transferor; and

	(iii)		in the event that Transferor is not a natural person, does not and will not violate any provision of any organization document of Transferor.

(c) Accredited Investor. Transferor has either (1) completed and delivered to the Company a questionnaire in the form of schedule 1 attached hereto in respect of Transferor’s qualification as an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and the representations and warranties made by Transferor to the Company in such questionnaire are true, complete and accurate or (2) provided to the Company such representations, warranties and undertakings as the Company shall reasonably required to ensure that the Exchange does not violate the Securities Act and/or other applicable securities laws.

(d) Investment Purpose. The Exchange Shares to be acquired by Transferor upon the consummation of the Exchange are being acquired by Transferor for investment for Transferor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view towards the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to a sale or sales that are registered under the Securities Act or exempt from such registration. Transferor (other than a natural person) either (1) was not formed for the purpose of investing in Pzena Inc. or (2) has provided to the Company and Pzena Inc. such representations, warranties and undertakings as the Company and/or Pzena Inc. shall reasonably require to ensure that the Exchange does not violate the Securities Act and/or other applicable securities laws. Transferor acknowledges that holders of the Exchange Shares must bear the economic risk of an investment in the Exchange Shares so acquired for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, such Exchange Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, such Exchange Shares cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Transferor also acknowledges that transfers of the Exchange Shares so acquired are further restricted by applicable United States federal and state and foreign securities laws.

(e) Access to Information. Transferor understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the acquisition and ownership of the Exchange Shares. Transferor has

been provided an opportunity to ask questions of, and has received answers satisfactory to Transferor from, Pzena Inc. and its representatives regarding the Exchange Shares, and has obtained any and all additional information from Pzena Inc. and its representatives that Transferor deems necessary regarding the Exchange Shares.

(f) Evaluation of and Ability to Bear Risks. Transferor has such knowledge and experience in financial affairs that Transferor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of, and other considerations relating to, the ownership of the Exchange Shares, and has not relied in connection with the acquisition of the Exchange Shares upon any representations, warranties or agreements other than those set forth in this Instrument. Transferor ‘s financial situation is such that Transferor can afford to bear the economic risk of holding the Exchange Shares for an indefinite period of time, and Transferor can afford to suffer the complete loss of its investment in the Exchange Shares.

(g) Registration Rights Agreement. Transferor has executed and delivered to Pzena Inc. a countersigned signature page to the Registration Rights Agreement and understands that the Exchange Shares will be subject to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, which provides certain restrictions on the transferability of such Exchange Shares.

3. Employee Member Acknowledgement. In the event Transferor is an Employee Member, Transferor hereby acknowledges that he or she is receiving a significant economic benefit by Exchanging the otherwise illiquid Transferred Units into the Exchange Shares and therefore reaffirms his or her obligation to comply with the restive covenants contained in Sections 5.07 and 5.08 of the Operating Agreement as may be applicable to such Employee Member on and following the date hereof.

4. Further Assurance. Transferor hereby agrees to execute and deliver such further agreements and instruments and take such other actions as may be necessary to make effective the transfer contemplated by this Instrument.

5. Successors and Assigns. This Instrument shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

6. Governing Law. This Instrument shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

7. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings in this Instrument are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Instrument.

8. Counterparts. This Instrument may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9. Entire Agreement. This Instrument and any other schedules, certificates, lists and documents referred to herein, and any documents executed by any of the parties simultaneously herewith or pursuant thereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto, except as expressly provided herein, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, discussions, negotiations and communications, written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
