|2. | Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | -------------------------------

Basis of
consolidation and form of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances within continuing operations have been eliminated. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The nature of the Companys business is such that the results of an interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2006 as filed with the SEC.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current

Cash and cash equivalents include money market accounts, which are payable on demand, and short-term investments with an original maturity of less than 90 days. The carrying amount of such cash equivalents
approximates their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Market making and sales activities

Securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased, which primarily consist of listed and OTC equities, are carried at market value and are recorded
on a trade date basis. Net trading revenue (trading gains, net of

trading losses) and commissions (which includes commission equivalents earned on institutional client orders) and related expenses are also recorded on a
trade date basis. The Companys clearing agreements call for payment or receipt of interest income, net of transaction-related interest charged by clearing brokers for facilitating the settlement and financing of securities transactions.
Interest expense, which has been netted against interest income on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, was $1.2 million and $834,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively and $1.5 million and $1.2 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Dividend income and expense relating to securities owned and securities
sold, not yet purchased derived from our market making activities are included as a component of Net trading revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Payments for order flow and ECN rebates represent payments to broker-dealer clients, in the normal course of business, for directing their order flow in U.S. equities to the Company, and rebates for providing
liquidity to Direct Edge ECN. Soft dollar and commission recapture expense represents payments to institutions in connection with soft dollar and commission recapture programs.

Asset management fees

Deephaven
earns asset management fees, which consist of management fees and incentive allocation fees, for managing the Deephaven Funds. Management fees, which are received monthly, are recorded as earned and are calculated as a percentage of each Deephaven
Funds monthly net assets.

Incentive allocation fees are earned based upon the
performance of the Deephaven Funds and are calculated based upon a percentage of a new high net asset value as defined in the applicable private placement offering memorandum, for some funds, for the six month performance period ended June 30th
or December 31st, and for the twelve month performance period ended December 31stfor other funds. A new high net asset value is defined as the amount by which the net asset value of an investors account in the particular Deephaven fund exceeds the greater of either the investors
highest previous net asset value in that Deephaven fund or the net asset value at the time the investor made a purchase.

The
Company records incentive allocation fees in accordance with Method 2 of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Topic D-96. Under this methodology, the Company recognizes incentive allocation fee income for each interim period based upon the
amount that would be due if the investment advisory relationship with the Deephaven Funds were terminated at the end of such period.

The incentive allocation fee may increase or decrease during the year based on the performance of
the Deephaven Funds. As such, the incentive allocation fee, in certain circumstances, may be negative for certain periods, but not lower than zero for any six-month performance period ended June 30th or December 31st, for some funds, or
the twelve month performance period ended December 31stfor other funds. Incentive allocation fees are paid upon the close of each six month
performance period, or twelve month performance period, as the case may be, and are not subject to repayment (i.e., clawback) once such performance period has closed. If a fund with a six month performance period incurs losses in the
performance period ended December 31st, the Company may make the determination, at its sole discretion, to return all or a portion of incentive
allocation fees collected for the prior six month performance period ending June 30th of that year.

Estimated fair
value of financial instruments

The market value of securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased is estimated using market
quotations available from major securities exchanges, clearing brokers and dealers. Management estimates that

the fair values of other financial instruments recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition (including receivables, payables and accrued
expenses) approximate their carrying values, as such financial instruments are short-term in nature, bear interest at current market rates or are subject to frequent repricing.

Goodwill and intangible assets

The
Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,which requires that goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life no longer be
amortized, but instead, be tested for impairment annually or when an event occurs or circumstances change that signify the existence of impairment. Other intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their useful lives and, as
required by SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,will be tested for recoverability whenever events indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

Strategic investments and deferred compensation investments

Strategic investments include non-controlling equity ownership interests primarily in financial services-related businesses. Deferred compensation investments consist of investments held by the Company related to
deferred compensation plans for the benefit of Knights employees and directors. Strategic investments and Deferred compensation investments are accounted for under the equity method, at cost or at fair market value. The equity method of
accounting is used for investments in limited partnerships and limited liability companies that are held by the Company or any of its non-broker-dealer subsidiaries. Investments in corporations by such non-broker-dealers are held at amortized cost.
Deferred compensation investments in mutual funds are accounted for at fair value.

Strategic investments are reviewed on an ongoing basis
to ensure that the carrying values of the investments have not been impaired. If the Company assesses that an impairment loss on a strategic investment has occurred due to a decline in fair value or other market conditions, the investment is written
down to its estimated impaired value.

Treasury stock

The Company records its purchases of treasury stock at cost as a separate component of Stockholders equity. The Company obtains treasury stock through purchases in the open market or through privately negotiated
transactions.

Foreign currencies

The functional currency of the Companys foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates at the date of the
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates during the periods. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in Investment income and other on the Companys
Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Depreciation, amortization and occupancy

Fixed assets are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the life of the related office lease or the expected useful life of the assets. The Company follows SFAS No. 13 Accounting for

##### Table of Contents

Leases, as clarified by EITF and Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Technical Bulletins, which states that rent expense under
operating leases with fixed rent escalations, lease incentives and free rent periods should be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term beginning on the date the lessee takes possession of or controls the use of the space, including
during free rent periods. The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with the acquisition or development of internal-use software and amortizes the software over its estimated useful life of three years, commencing at the time the software is
placed in service.

Writedown of fixed assets

Writedowns of fixed assets are recognized when it is determined that the fixed assets are impaired. The amount of the impairment writedown is determined by the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated
fair value of the fixed asset. In determining the impairment, an estimated fair value is obtained through research and inquiry of the market. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment on a periodic basis.

Lease loss accrual

It is the
Companys policy to identify excess real estate capacity and where applicable, accrue for such future costs. In determining the accrual, a nominal cash flow analysis is performed for lease losses initiated prior to December 31, 2002, the
effective date of SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, and costs related to the excess capacity are accrued. For lease losses initiated after December 31, 2002, the Companys policy is
to accrue future costs related to excess capacity using a discounted cash flow analysis. In an event the Company is able to sublease the excess real estate after recording a lease loss accrual, such lease loss accrual is adjusted to the extent the
actual terms of sub-leased property differ from the assumptions used in the calculation of the lease loss accrual.

Income taxes

The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the
financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and measures them using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the recoverability of future tax
deductions by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of temporary differences and forecasted operating earnings. Net deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in Other assets and Accrued
expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

On January 1, 2007 the Company
adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). The Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of the implementation of
FIN 48.

Stock-based compensation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123-R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123-R), using the modified prospective method. Under SFAS No. 123-R, the grant
date fair values of stock-based employee awards that require future service are amortized over the relevant service period.

Upon the
adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the Company changed its expense attribution method for options. For option awards granted subsequent to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period for the entire award, which is the same methodology that the Company uses to account for restricted share awards. For unvested option awards granted prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the Company continues to recognize
compensation cost using a graded-vesting method (as it had on a pro-forma basis previously). The graded-vesting method recognizes compensation cost separately for each vesting tranche.

##### Table of Contents

SFAS No. 123-R requires expected forfeitures to be considered in determining stock-based employee
compensation expense. For all periods presented, the Company recorded a benefit for expected forfeitures on all outstanding stock-based awards.

For stock-based payments issued after the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the Company applies a non-substantive vesting period approach whereby the expense is accelerated for those employees and directors that receive awards and are
eligible to retire prior to the award vesting. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R, the Company applied a nominal vesting approach for employee stock-based compensation awards with retirement eligible provisions. Under the nominal vesting
approach, the Company recognized actual and pro-forma compensation cost over the vesting period and, if the employee retired before the end of the vesting period, the Company recognized any remaining unrecognized compensation cost at the date of
retirement. The impact of this change in the vesting period approach did not have a material impact on the results of operations for the periods presented herein.

Other

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

|5. | Goodwill and Intangible Assets
|-- | ------------------------------

Goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually or when an event occurs or circumstances change that signify the existence of impairment. As part of the test for impairment, the Company considers the profitability
of the respective segment or reporting unit, an assessment of the fair value of the respective segment or reporting unit as well as the overall market value of the Company compared to its net book value. In June 2007, the Company tested for the
impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and concluded that there was no impairment. Amortizable intangibles are tested for recoverability whenever events indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. No such events occurred in 2006
and 2007 that would indicate that the carrying amounts of the Companys amortizable intangibles may not be recoverable.

The goodwill
balance of $133.1 million at June 30, 2007 relates to the Global Markets business segment. Goodwill is net of accumulated amortization of $21.9 million recorded through December 31, 2001, the effective date the Company adopted SFAS
No. 142. Goodwill primarily represents the Companys purchases of the businesses now operating as KCM, Direct Trading, Direct Edge ECN, Hotspot, Donaldson and ValuBond.

The Company had intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, of $60.8 million and $63.7 million at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006,
respectively, all included within the Global Markets business segment. Intangible assets decreased by $2.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 due to amortization expense. Intangible assets primarily represent client relationships
and are being amortized over their remaining useful lives, the majority of which have been determined to range from eight to thirty years. The weighted average remaining life of the Companys intangible assets at June 30, 2007 is approximately
16 years.

The Company recorded amortization expense, related to its intangible assets of $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $2.9 million and $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The estimated amortization expense relating to the intangible assets for each of the next
five years approximates $2.9 million for the remainder of 2007, $5.7 million in 2008, $5.1 million in 2009, $4.9 million in each of 2010 and 2011, and $4.8 million in 2012.

The chart below summarizes the Companys Goodwill and Intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, as of June 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2007 (in millions):

|6. | Investment in Deephaven Sponsored Funds and Strategic Investments
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------

The Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, Deephaven, is the registered investment adviser and sponsor of the Deephaven Funds, which engage in various trading strategies involving equities, debt instruments and
derivatives. The underlying investments in the Deephaven Funds are carried at market value. Of the $4.0 billion and $4.2 billion of assets under management in the Deephaven Funds as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, the
Company had corporate investments as a limited partner or non-managing member of $200.8 million and $187.6 million, respectively. Deferred compensation investments on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition at June 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2006 included $51.8 million and $31.6 million, respectively, of investments as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds related to employee and director deferred compensation plans. Certain officers,
directors and employees of the Company held direct investments of approximately $9.8 million and $6.2 million as limited partners or non-managing members in the Deephaven Funds, in the aggregate, as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006,
respectively.

Included in Investment income and other on the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations is income from the
Companys corporate investments as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds of $6.3 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $14.2 million and $19.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

In connection with the sale of the Derivative Markets business in December
2004 (see Footnote 9, Discontinued Operations) and in light of the reorganization of the Companys business segments, the Company transferred its investment in the International Securities Exchange, Inc. (ISE), which was
previously held by its

broker-dealer subsidiaries, to a corporate investment holding company. During the first quarter of 2005, this equity investment became marketable and,
accordingly, was accounted for as an equity security under SFAS No. 115 Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and was classified as an available-for-sale security. Included in the three and six months ended
June 30, 2006 is a pre-tax gain of $7.1 million related to the sale of part of the Companys equity investment in the ISE. As of June 30, 2006, the Company owned 543,000 shares of common stock in the ISE, which had an aggregate fair
value and amortized cost of $20.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively.



|7. | Significant Clients and Investors
|-- | ---------------------------------

The Company
considers significant clients to be those clients who account for 10% or more of the total U.S. equity dollar value traded by the Company during the period. No clients accounted for more than 10% of the Companys U.S. equity dollar value traded
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company considers significant investors to be those
investors who account for 10% or more of asset under management in Deephaven Funds. No investor accounted for more than 10% of the Deephaven Funds asset under management as of June 30, 2007 and 2006.



|8. | Writedown of Assets and Lease Loss Accrual
|-- | ------------------------------------------

The
Writedown of assets and lease loss accrual during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was a benefit of $1.5 million, due to the adjustment of previously recognized lease losses with respect to our 545 Washington Boulevard property in
Jersey City, N.J. During the second quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a sub-lease agreement for a portion of the premises for which it had previously recorded a lease loss accrual. The lease loss accrual was adjusted based on the difference
between the actual terms of the sub-lease and the assumptions previously used in the calculation of the lease loss accrual.

The Writedown
of assets and lease loss accrual for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was a charge of $482,000 and $8.5 million, respectively. The amount for the three months ended June 30, 2006 related to costs associated with excess real
estate capacity and write down of fixed assets. The additional amount for the six months ended June 30, 2006 primarily related to excess real estate capacity at our 545 Washington Boulevard facility in Jersey City, N.J.



|9. | Discontinued Operations
|-- | -----------------------

The Company completed the
sale of its Derivative Markets business to Citigroup for $237 million in cash in December 2004. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the results of the Derivative Markets business segment, the revenues and expenses associated with these businesses
as well as all costs associated with the sale transaction have been included in Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. As described in Footnote 11 Regulatory
Charges and Related Matters, during the first quarter of 2007, the Company recorded a charge of $1.3 million, net of taxes, related to a regulatory matter involving the Derivative Markets segment. No charge was recorded for the three months
ended June 30, 2007.

|10. | Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
|--- | --------------------------------------

In the
ordinary course of business, the nature of the Companys business subjects it to claims, lawsuits, regulatory examinations and other proceedings. We are subject to several of these matters at the present time. The results of these matters
cannot be predicted with certainty. There can be no assurance that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations in any future period and a material judgment could have a material adverse impact on
the Companys financial condition and results of operations. However, it is the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel that, based on information currently available, the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a
material adverse impact on the business, financial condition or operating results of the Company although they might be material to the operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon operating results for that period.

The Company leases office space under noncancelable operating leases. Certain office leases contain fixed escalation clauses. Rental
expense from continuing operations under the office leases was $2.2 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively and is included in Occupancy and equipment rentals on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, rental expense from continuing operations was $4.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

The Company leases certain computer and other equipment under noncancelable operating leases and has entered into guaranteed employment contracts with certain of its employees. As of June 30, 2007, future minimum
rental commitments under all noncancelable office, computer and equipment leases (Operating Leases), and guaranteed employment contracts longer than one year (Other Obligations) were as follows (in millions):

During the normal course of business, the Company collateralizes certain leases or other
contractual obligations through letters of credit or segregated funds held in escrow accounts. As of June 30, 2007, the Company has provided a letter of credit for $6.0 million, collateralized by U.S. Treasury Bills, as a guarantee for one of
the Companys lease obligations.

In 2003, the Company entered into long-term employment contracts with certain senior managers of
Deephaven. These employment agreements, which became effective on January 1, 2004, had a three-year term which expired on December 31, 2006. The agreements provided for profit sharing bonuses based on the financial performance of
Deephaven, which, for 2005 and 2006, represented 50% of pre-tax earnings prior to the profit-sharing bonuses. The employment agreements included an option for renewal by the Deephaven managers through 2009 under the identical financial terms;
however, the renewal option was not exercised. Pursuant to the terms of a simultaneously executed option agreement between the Company and these senior Deephaven managers, in the event of a change of control of the Company during the initial
three-year employment term, the Deephaven senior managers had the option to obtain a 51% interest in Deephaven in exchange for the termination of their employment contracts and associated profit-sharing bonuses. As the Company did not experience a
change of control during the term of these employment contracts, this option expired.

In December 2006, the Company entered into new
long-term employment agreements with three senior managers of Deephaven (the Deephaven Managers), two of whom were parties to the 2003 agreements. The

##### Table of Contents

new agreements, which became effective on January 1, 2007, are for three-year terms and include a right of renewal by the Deephaven Managers through
2012 under certain circumstances. The new employment agreements provide profit-sharing bonuses based on the financial performance of Deephaven. According to the terms of the contracts, the Deephaven Managers will receive 50% of the first $60
million, and 75% thereafter, of pre-tax earnings prior to the profit-sharing bonuses (Pre-Bonus Profits). As of June 30, 2007, the year-to-date Pre-Bonus Profits at Deephaven were approximately $61 million. The Deephaven Managers
also received one million shares of Knight restricted common stock, which vest ratably over three years.

Effective January 1, 2007,
the Deephaven Managers were also granted an option (the Option), exercisable after January 1, 2008 and until December 31, 2012, and conditioned on meeting certain requirements, to obtain a 49% interest in Deephaven (or a new
limited liability company to which the Companys interests in Deephaven would be contributed) in exchange for the termination of their new employment agreements and associated profit-sharing bonuses. The agreement also provides that in the
event of a change of control of the Company following January 1, 2007 and prior to December 31, 2012, the Deephaven Managers would have the option (the Change of Control Option), in exchange for the termination of their new
employment contracts and associated profit-sharing bonuses, to obtain a 51% interest in Deephaven or, if the Option has already been exercised, to increase their 49% interest resulting from the exercise of the Option by an additional 2%. Following
any exercise of the Option or Change of Control Option by the Deephaven Managers, pre-tax earnings prior to profit sharing will be allocated between Knight and the Deephaven Managers in the same manner as under the new employment agreements. During
the life of the Option, the agreements provide that the Company may not sell Deephaven without the approval of the Deephaven Managers.



|11. | Regulatory Charges and Related Matters
|--- | --------------------------------------

In 2006,
the Company received a request from the staff of the SEC for voluntary production of certain documentation related to options activities of its former Derivative Markets business segment which, prior to its sale by the Company in December 2004, was
primarily operated through Knight Financial Products LLC. The Company believes this request is part of a broader review by the staff of the SEC regarding certain trading practices in the options industry during the period 1999-2005. The Company
responded to this request and is cooperating with the staff of the SEC and certain regional exchanges to resolve this matter. During the first quarter of 2007, the Company recorded a charge of $1.3 million, net of tax, relating to this matter. This
charge has been reported in Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.



|12. | Comprehensive Income

(EPS) has been calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during each respective period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential reduction in EPS using the treasury stock method
to reflect the impact of common stock equivalents if stock options were exercised and restricted stock awards were to vest.

The following
is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in millions, except per share data):

The above calculations exclude options that could potentially dilute EPS in the future but were
antidilutive for the periods presented. The number of such options excluded was approximately 1.0 million and 0.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, and 0.4 million and 0.8 million for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.



|14. | Stock-Based Compensation
|--- | ------------------------

The Company has
established the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 1998 Long Term Incentive Plan, the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 1998 Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan, the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive Plan and the Knight Capital Group, Inc. 2006
Equity Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) (collectively, the Stock Plans). The purpose of the Stock Plans is to provide long-term incentive compensation to employees and directors of the Company. The Stock Plans are administered
by the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors, and allow for the grant of options, stock appreciation rights (2006 Plan only), restricted stock and restricted stock units (collectively, the awards), as defined by
the Stock Plans. The Stock Plans limit the number of awards that may be granted to a single individual as well as limit the amount of options, stock appreciation rights (2006 Plan only) or shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units that
may be awarded. As of June 30, 2007, the Company has not issued any stock appreciation rights or restricted stock units.

Restricted Shares

Eligible employees receive restricted shares as a portion of their total compensation. Restricted share awards generally vest ratably over three years. The Company has the right to fully vest employees in their awards
upon retirement and in certain other circumstances. Awards are otherwise canceled if employment is terminated before the end of the relevant vesting period.

The Company measures compensation cost related to restricted shares based on the market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant, which the Stock Plans define as the average of the high and low
sales price on the date prior to the grant date. The Company recorded compensation expense of $6.4 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $12.7 million and $7.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, relating to restricted shares, all of which has been included in Employee compensation and benefits on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table summarizes restricted share activity during the six months ended June 30, 2007 (shares in millions):

There is $47.4 million of unamortized compensation related to the unvested restricted shares
outstanding at June 30, 2007. The cost of these unvested restricted shares is expected to be recognized over a weighted average life of 1.8 years.

Stock Options

The Companys policy is to grant options for the purchase of shares of Class A Common Stock at not
less than market value, which the Stock Plans define as the average of the high and low sales price on the date prior to the grant date. Options generally vest ratably over a three or four-year period and expire on the fifth or tenth anniversary of
the grant date, pursuant to the terms of the applicable option award agreement. The Company has the right to fully vest employees in their awards upon retirement and in certain other circumstances. Awards are otherwise canceled if employment is
terminated before the end of the relevant vesting period. The Companys policy is to issue new shares upon share option exercises by its employees.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated as of its respective grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Stock options granted have exercise prices equal to the market value of the
Companys common stock at the date of grant as defined by the Stock Plans. The principal assumptions utilized in valuing options and the methodology for estimating such model inputs include: 1) risk-free interest rateestimate is based on
the yield of U.S. zero coupon securities with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option; 2) expected volatilityestimate is based on several factors including implied volatility of market-traded options on the Companys common
stock on the grant date and the historical volatility of the Companys common stock; and 3) expected option lifeestimate is based on internal studies of historical experience and projected exercise behavior based on different employee
groups and specific option characteristics, including the effect of employee terminations. Based on the results of the model, the weighted-average fair value of the stock options granted during the quarter ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $5.75
and $5.49 per option, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2007 the Company adopted FIN 48. The Company recognized no material
adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of the implementation of FIN 48. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007 and at June 30, 2007, the Company had $0.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, all of
which would affect the Companys effective tax rate if recognized.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company is subject to U.S. Federal
income tax examinations for the tax years 2004 and 2005, and to non-U.S. income tax examinations for the tax years of 2002 through 2005. In addition, the

Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations in various jurisdictions for the tax years 2000 through 2005. The final outcome of these
examinations is not yet determinable. However, the Company anticipates that adjustments to the unrecognized tax benefits, if any, will not result in a material change to the results of operations or financial condition.

The Companys policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of Income from continuing
operations before income taxes. Penalties are recorded in Other expenses and interest paid or received is recorded in Interest, net, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.



|16. | Acquisitions
|--- | ------------

During 2006, the Company acquired the
following two businesses within the Global Markets segment for a total of $95.7 million in cash:



| |  |  | Hotspot, a leading electronic foreign exchange marketplace that provides access to electronic foreign exchange spot trade executions through an advanced ECN-based
platform.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ValuBond, a privately held firm that provides electronic access and trade execution products for the fixed income market. ValuBond is registered with the SEC and is
a member of the NASD and the MSRB.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Goodwill and Intangible assets recognized upon the closing of these transactions
amounted to $69.8 million and $38.7 million, respectively. Intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships and trade names. As these acquisitions were structured as stock purchases, none of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for
tax purposes. Refer to Footnote 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further details.

During 2005, the Company acquired the
following two businesses within our Global Markets segment for a total of $50.4 million in cash:



| |  |  | Direct Trading, a privately held firm specializing in providing institutions with direct market access trading through an advanced electronic platform (Knight
Direct); and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ATTAIN ECN (now operating as Direct Edge ECN), an alternative trading system that operates an ECN. Direct Edge ECN is a liquidity destination offering the ability
to match and route trades in Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market, Nasdaq Capital Market and NYSE and AMEX listed securities by displaying orders in the NASD Alternative Display Facility.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Goodwill and Intangible assets recognized upon closing of these transactions amounted to $28.5 million and $20.0 million, respectively. Intangible assets
primarily consist of customer relationships and trade names. Refer to Footnote 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further details.

During 2006, the Company paid additional consideration with respect to the 2005 acquisitions of $15.5 million, which increased goodwill relating to these acquisitions to $44.0 million, which is expected to be fully deductible for tax
purposes as these acquisitions were structured as asset purchases for tax purposes. One additional contingent purchase payment is due in the third quarter of 2007 with respect to the acquisition of Direct Trading which is expected to be less than
$12.5 million and three additional contingent payments are due in the fourth quarters of 2007, 2008 and 2009 with respect to Direct Edge ECN based upon its profitability during future periods (which in aggregate will not exceed $4.2 million).

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including
those discussed in our Form 10-K. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth elsewhere in this document and in
our Form 10-K.

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including without limitation, those under
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations herein (MD&A), Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk in Part I, Item 3, and Legal
Proceedings in Part II, Item 1, and the documents incorporated by reference, may constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and
projections about the Companys industry, managements beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that any such
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict including, without limitation, risks associated with the costs, integration,
performance and operation of the businesses recently acquired, or that may be acquired in the future, by the Company and the risks associated with the recent change in management at Deephaven Capital Management LLC (together with its subsidiaries,
Deephaven) and the potential impact on the Deephaven business and assets under management. Since such statements involve risks and uncertainties, the actual results and performance of the Company may turn out to be materially different
from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company also disclaims
any obligation to update its view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward looking statements made in this report. Other risk factors include those associated with pursuing the
substantially increased repurchase program, including, without limitation, whether or not the Company will complete the share repurchase program during any particular time frame or at all, whether the Companys cash flow from earnings and cash
on hand will be sufficient to fund the share repurchase program, the effect of pursuing the program on the Companys balance sheet, the impact of market conditions, trading restrictions and alternative requirements for available cash, and the
possibility that pursuing the program will limit the ability of the Company to pursue other opportunities. Readers should carefully review the risks and uncertainties detailed under Certain Factors Affecting Results of Operations within
MD&A herein, under Risk Factors herein and in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in other reports or documents the Company files from time to time with the SEC. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Companys Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto contained in this report.

##### Table of Contents

The changes in our Pre-Tax Earnings by segment from the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 to
the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, are summarized as follows:



| |  |  | Asset ManagementOur Pre-Tax Earnings from Asset Management for the three months ended June 30, 2007 increased by $4.0 million, or 179.1%, from the
comparable period in 2006 primarily due to higher incentive fees as a result of higher fund returns. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, our Pre-Tax Earnings from Asset Management decreased $3.8 million, or 13.1%, from the comparable period
in 2006 primarily due to higher profitability-based bonus and stock-based compensation offset, in part, by higher management fees as a result of greater assets under management.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Global MarketsOur Pre-Tax Earnings from Global Markets for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $16.3 million, or 33.3%, from the
comparable period in 2006, primarily due to lower revenue capture offset, in part, by higher U.S. equity dollar value traded. Our Pre-Tax Earnings from Global Markets for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $28.7 million, or 29.5%,
from the comparable period in 2006, primarily due to fewer shares traded and decreased revenue capture.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | CorporateOur Pre-Tax Earnings from our Corporate segment for the three months ended June 30, 2007 increased by $1.4 million from the comparable
period in 2006, primarily due to higher returns on our corporate investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds, offset by the absence of gains on the sales of a portion of our investments in the International
Securities Exchange, Inc. (ISE) which were recognized in 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, our Pre-Tax Earnings from our Corporate segment decreased $5.7 million, or 91.5%, from the comparable period in 2006 primarily
due to lower returns on our corporate investments in the Deephaven Funds as well as the absence of gains from the sale of a portion of our investment in the ISE, which were recognized in 2006.

Certain Factors Affecting Results of Operations

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant fluctuations in operating results due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, introductions or enhancements to trade execution services by us or our
competitors; the value of our securities positions and our ability to manage the risks attendant thereto; the volume of our market-making activities; the dollar value of securities traded; volatility in the securities markets; our market share with
institutional and broker-dealer clients; the performance, amount of, and volatility in, the results of our quantitative market-making and program trading portfolios; the performance of our international operations; our ability to manage personnel,
overhead and other expenses, including our occupancy expenses under our office leases and expenses and charges related to our legal and regulatory proceedings; the strength of our client relationships; changes in payments for order flow and
clearing, execution and regulatory transaction costs; the level of assets under management and fund returns; the addition or loss of executive management and asset management, sales and trading and technology professionals; legislative, legal and
regulatory changes; legal and regulatory matters; geopolitical risk; the amount and timing of capital expenditures, acquisitions and divestitures; the integration, performance and operation of acquired businesses; the incurrence of costs associated
with acquisitions and dispositions; investor sentiment; technological changes and events; seasonality; competition and market and economic conditions. Such factors may also have an impact on our ability to achieve our strategic objectives,
including, without limitation, increases in our revenues and pre-tax profit margins in our Global Markets segment and increases in our fund returns and assets under management in our Asset Management segment. If demand for our services declines in
either of our segments due to any of the above factors, and we are unable to adjust our cost structure on a timely basis, our operating results and strategic objectives could be materially and adversely affected.

As a result of the foregoing factors, period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and such
comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. There also can be no assurance that we will be able to continue the rates of revenue growth that we have experienced in the past or that we will be able to improve our operating
results.

Trends

We believe that our continuing operations are impacted by the following trends that may affect our financial condition and results of operations.



| |  |  | Broker-dealer clients continue to focus on statistics measuring the quality of equity executions (including speed of executions and price improvement). In an effort
to improve the quality of their executions as well as increase efficiencies, market-makers have increased the level of automation within their operations. Over the past several years, the greater focus on execution quality has resulted in greater
competition in the marketplace, which, along with market structure changes and market conditions, has negatively impacted the revenue capture metrics of the Company and other market-making firms.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail equity transaction volumes executed by broker-dealers have fluctuated over the past few years due to investor sentiment, market conditions and a variety of
other factors. Retail equity transaction volumes may not be sustainable and are not predictable.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There has been consolidation among market centers over the past several years, and several regional exchanges have entered into joint ventures with broker-dealers
to create their own alternative trading systems (i.e. ECNs) and compete within the OTC and listed trading venues. In addition, many broker-dealers are offering their own internal crossing networks creating further fragmentation in the marketplace.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market structure changes, competition and market conditions have triggered an industry shift toward market-makers charging explicit commissions or commission
equivalents to institutional clients for executions in OTC securities. For the majority of our institutional client orders, we charge explicit fees in the form of commissions or commission equivalents. Institutional commission rates have fallen in
the past few years, and may continue to fall in the future.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Due to regulatory scrutiny over the past several years relating to equity sell-side research and the continued focus by investors on execution quality and overall
transaction costs, more institutional clients allocate commissions to broker-dealers based on the quality of executions. In the past, institutional equity commissions were primarily allocated to broker-dealers in exchange for either research or soft
dollar and commission recapture programs.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There has been increased scrutiny of market-makers, specialists, hedge funds and soft dollar practices by the regulatory and legislative authorities. New
legislation or modifications to existing regulations and rules could occur in the future and could materially impact the Companys revenues and profitability. For example, it is anticipated that in November 2007, all non-Nasdaq securities will
be subject to limit order protection.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | There has been a proliferation of alternative investment entities, which has had the effect of materially increasing competition for new investor assets.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Income Statement Items

The following section briefly describes the key components of, and drivers to, our significant revenues and expenses.

Revenues

Our revenues consist principally of Commissions and fees and Net trading revenue from
Global Markets and Asset management fees from Asset Management.

Revenues on transactions for which we charge explicit commissions or
commission equivalents, which include the majority of our institutional client orders, are included within Commissions and fees. Commissions and fees are primarily affected by changes in our equity transaction volumes with institutional clients,
changes in commission rates, the growth of Direct Trading, Direct Edge ECN, Hotspot and ValuBond and the growth of our soft dollar and commission recapture activity.

##### Table of Contents

Trading profits and losses on principal transactions are included within Net trading revenue. These
revenues are primarily affected by changes in the amount and mix of U.S. equity trade and share volumes, our revenue capture, dollar value of equities traded, our ability to derive trading gains by taking proprietary positions, changes in our
execution standards, volatility in the marketplace, our mix of broker-dealer and institutional clients, and regulatory changes and evolving industry customs and practices.

Asset management fees represent fees earned by Deephaven for sponsoring and managing the Deephaven Funds as well as fees earned from separately managed
accounts. These fees consist of management fees, calculated as fixed percentages of assets under management, and incentive fees, generally calculated as a percentage of the funds and managed accounts year-to-date profits, if any.

The Company earns interest income from our cash held at banks and cash held in trading accounts at clearing brokers. The Companys
clearing agreements call for payment or receipt of interest income, net of transaction-related interest charged by clearing brokers for facilitating the settlement and financing of securities transactions. Net interest is primarily affected by
interest rates, the level of cash balances held at banks and clearing brokers and our level of securities positions in which we are long compared to our securities positions in which we are short.

Investment income and other primarily represents income earned, net of losses, related to our corporate investment as a limited partner or non-managing
member in the Deephaven Funds and our strategic investments. Such income is primarily affected by the level of our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds and rates of return earned by the Deephaven Funds as well as the performance and activity
of our strategic investments.

Transaction-based expenses

Transaction-based expenses include transaction-based variable expenses directly incurred in conjunction with generating Net trading revenue and
Commissions and fees and consist of Execution and clearance fees, Soft dollar and commission recapture expense, and Payments for order flow and ECN rebates.

Execution and clearance fees primarily represent clearance fees paid to clearing brokers for equities transactions, transaction fees paid to Nasdaq and other exchanges and regulatory bodies, and execution fees paid to
third parties, primarily for executing trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and other exchanges, and for executing orders through third party ECNs. Execution and clearance fees primarily fluctuate based on changes in equity trade
and share volume, clearance fees charged by clearing brokers and fees paid to ECNs, exchanges and certain regulatory bodies.

Soft dollar
and commission recapture expense represent payments to institutions in connection with our soft dollar and commission recapture programs. Soft dollar and commission recapture expense fluctuates based on U.S. equity share volume executed on behalf of
institutions.

Payments for order flow and ECN rebates represent payments to broker-dealer clients, in the normal course of business, for
directing to us their order flow in U.S. equities and rebates for providing liquidity to our ECN, Direct Edge ECN. Payments for order flow and ECN rebates fluctuate as we modify our rates and as our percentage of clients whose policy is not to
accept payments for order flow varies. Payments for order flow and ECN rebates also fluctuate based on U.S. equity share volume, our profitability and the mix of market orders and limit orders.

Other direct expenses

Other direct
expenses primarily consist of Employee compensation and benefits, Communications and data processing, Professional fees, Depreciation and amortization and Occupancy and equipment rentals.

Employee compensation and benefits expense, our largest expense, primarily consists of salaries and wages paid to all employees and profitability-based
compensation, which includes compensation paid to sales personnel

##### Table of Contents

and incentive compensation paid to all other employees based on our profitability. Compensation for employees engaged in sales activities is determined
primarily based on a percentage of their gross revenues net of certain transaction-based expenses. The majority of compensation in Asset Management is determined by formulas based upon the profitability of the Asset Management segment, subject to
certain minimum guaranteed payments. Employee compensation and benefits expense fluctuates, for the most part, based on changes in our revenues, profitability and the number of employees.

Communications and data processing expense primarily consists of costs for obtaining market data, telecommunications services and systems maintenance.

|- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total revenues from the Asset Management segment, which primarily consists of management fees and incentive fees, increased 107.6% to $29.4 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $14.2 million for the comparable period in 2006. The increase is primarily due to higher incentive fees as a result of increased fund returns, in addition to an increase in management fees due to

Total revenues from the Global Markets segment, which primarily comprises Commissions and fees and Net
trading revenue from our domestic businesses, decreased 9.9% to $165.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $183.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2007, were
negatively impacted by a decrease in revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded and lower share volume in OTC Bulletin Board and Pink Sheet shares.

Average revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded was 1.6 basis points (bps) for the second quarter of 2007, down 20.5% from 2.1 bps in the second quarter of 2006. The primary driver for the
decrease in revenue capture was a change in the mix of our order flow due to a significant increase in volumes from a new broker-dealer client base (Alternative Liquidity Providers). Order flow from Alternative Liquidity Providers generates lower
revenue capture than our traditional order flow. Average revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded is calculated as the total of net domestic trading revenues plus U.S. institutional commissions and commission equivalents (included in
Commissions and fees), less certain transaction-related regulatory fees (included in Execution and clearance fees), (collectively Core Equity Revenues) divided by the total dollar value of the related equity transactions. Core Equity
Revenues were $106.8 million and $116.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Core Equity Revenues do not include revenues from KEMILs European institutional business, Donaldson, Direct Trading, Direct
Edge ECN, Hotspot and ValuBond.

Total revenues from the Corporate segment, which primarily represents income from our corporate
investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds and other strategic investments, decreased 19.5% to $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $8.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. Income
from our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds increased to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $900,000 for the comparable period in 2006. Included in the three months ended June 30, 2006 is a pre-tax gain of
$7.1 million related to the sale of part of the Companys equity investment in the ISE.

Transaction-based expenses

Execution and clearance fees decreased 4.4% to $28.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $30.0 million for the comparable
period in 2006, primarily due to lower clearing rates offset, in part, by higher trade volumes. As a percentage of total revenue, Execution and clearance fees decreased to 14.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from 14.6% for the
comparable period in 2006. These costs decreased as a percentage of revenue primarily due to the increase in revenues from Asset Management, which have no associated execution and clearance fees. Execution and clearance fees fluctuate based on
changes in transaction volumes, regulatory fees and efficiencies in processing the transactions. Soft dollar and commission recapture expense decreased 22.6% to $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $18.7 million for the
comparable period in 2006, due to lower soft dollar volumes.

Payments for order flow and ECN rebates increased to $12.8 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2007, from $12.1 million for the comparable period in 2006. As a percentage of total revenue, Payments for order flow and ECN rebates increased to 6.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from 5.9% for the
comparable period in 2006. This expense increased primarily due to increased profitability-based rebates paid to broker-dealer clients and increased third party volumes within Direct Edge ECN.

Other direct expenses

Employee compensation and benefits expense increased 21.8% to $78.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $64.6 million for the
comparable period in 2006. As a percentage of total revenue, Employee compensation and benefits increased to 39.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from 31.4% for the comparable period in 2006. The increase on a dollar basis was
primarily due to the new compensation arrangements established for senior management at Deephaven, higher profitability-based bonuses at Deephaven, as well as an increase in the number of employees. The number of full time employees in our
continuing operations increased to 851 at June 30, 2007, from 803 at June 30, 2006, primarily due to growth in our Global Markets business as well as the acquisition of ValuBond. Employee compensation and benefits expense fluctuates, for
the most part, based on changes in our revenues, profitability and the number of employees.

Communications and data processing expense
increased 11.7% to $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $8.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 3.5% to $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007,
from $5.3 million for the comparable period in 2006.

Professional fees decreased 37.3% to $3.2 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2007, from $5.1 million for the comparable period in 2006. The decrease in 2007 was primarily due to decreases in legal expenses, which have fluctuated based on the activity relating to our various legal and regulatory proceedings, and
lower consulting expenses.

Business development expense increased to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $3.1
million for the comparable period in 2006. The primary reason for the increase was higher expenses related to the corporate brand campaign, marketing and travel and entertainment costs.

Occupancy and equipment rentals expense increased slightly to $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $3.4 million for the
comparable period in 2006.

For the three months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded a benefit of $1.5 million due to the
adjustment of previously recognized lease losses with respect to our 545 Washington Boulevard property in Jersey City, N.J. During the second quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a sub-lease agreement for a portion of the premises for which it
had previously recorded a lease loss accrual. The lease loss accrual was adjusted based on the difference between the actual terms of the sub-lease and the assumptions used in the calculation of the lease loss accrual.

Other expenses decreased to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $3.9 million for the comparable period in 2006 due to lower
general and administration costs.

Our effective tax rates from continuing operations of 38.8% and 40.2% for the three months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, differed from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible charges.

revenues from the Asset Management segment, which primarily consists of management fees and incentive fees, increased 6.6% to $90.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $85.0 million for the comparable period in 2006. The
increase is primarily due to higher management fees as a result of higher average assets under management. The average month-end balance of assets under management for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $4.0 billion, up from $3.0 billion
for the comparable period in 2006. The blended fund return across all assets under management in the Deephaven Funds for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was a gain of 7.0%, down from a gain of 9.2% for the comparable period in 2006.

Total revenues from the Global Markets segment, which primarily comprises Commissions and fees and
Net trading revenue from our domestic businesses, decreased 9.2% to $337.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $372.0 million for the comparable period in 2006. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007, were
negatively impacted by a decrease in revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded and lower share volume in OTC Bulletin Board and Pink Sheet shares.

Average revenue capture per U.S. equity dollar value traded was 1.8 bps for the six months ended June 30, 2007, down 17.7% from 2.2 bps for the comparable period in 2006. The primary driver for the decrease in
revenue capture was a change in the mix of our order flow due to a significant increase in volumes from a new broker-dealer client base (Alternative Liquidity Providers). Order flow from Alternative Liquidity Providers

generates lower revenue capture than our traditional order flow. Core Equity Revenues were $217.8 million and $245.5 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Core Equity Revenues do not include revenues from KEMILs European institutional business, Donaldson, Direct Trading, Direct Edge ECN, Hotspot and ValuBond.

Total revenues from the Corporate segment, which primarily represents income from our corporate
investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds and other strategic investments, decreased 44.1% to $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $26.1 million for the comparable period in 2006. Income
from our corporate investment in the Deephaven Funds decreased to $14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $19.8 million for the comparable period in 2006, due to lower returns on a lower average monthly investment balance.
Included in the six months ended June 30, 2006 is a pre-tax gain of $7.1 million related to the sale of part of the Companys equity investment in the ISE.

Transaction-based expenses

Execution and clearance fees decreased 4.8% to $56.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007, from $59.0 million for the comparable period in 2006, primarily due to lower clearing rates offset, in part, by higher trade volumes. As a percentage of total revenue, Execution and clearance fees increased to 12.7%
for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from 12.2% for the comparable period in 2006. These costs increased as a percentage of revenue primarily due to lower revenue capture. Execution and clearance fees fluctuate based on changes in
transaction volumes, regulatory fees and efficiencies in processing the transactions. Soft dollar and commission recapture expense decreased 21.9% to $29.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $37.1 million for the comparable
period in 2006 due to lower soft dollar volumes.

Payments for order flow and ECN rebates increased to $25.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007, from $22.0 million for the comparable period in 2006. As a percentage of total revenue, Payments for order flow and ECN rebates increased to 5.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from 4.6% for the comparable
period in 2006. This expense increased primarily due to increased profitability-based rebates paid to broker-dealer clients and increased third party volumes within Direct Edge ECN.

Other direct expenses

Employee
compensation and benefits expense increased 10.2% to $180.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $164.2 million for the comparable period in 2006. As a percentage of total revenue, Employee compensation and benefits increased to
40.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from 34.0% for the comparable period in 2006. The increase on a dollar basis was primarily due to the new compensation arrangements established for senior management at Deephaven, higher
profitability-based bonuses at Deephaven, non-recurring compensation associated with the new Deephaven employment agreements, additional employees related to the acquisitions of Hotspot and ValuBond and increased stock-based compensation. The number
of full time employees in our continuing operations increased to 851 at June 30, 2007, from 803 at June 30, 2006, primarily due to growth in our Global Markets business in addition to the acquisition of ValuBond. Employee compensation and
benefits expense fluctuates, for the most part, based on changes in our revenues, profitability and the number of employees.

Communications and data processing expense increased 12.7% to $18.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $16.0 million for the comparable period in 2006. Depreciation and amortization expense

increased 12.2% to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $9.7 million for the comparable period in 2006 due to the purchase of
additional fixed assets and additional expense related to the amortization of intangible assets in connection with the acquisitions of Hotspot and ValuBond.

Professional fees decreased 24.4% to $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $11.5 million for the comparable period in 2006. The decrease in 2007 was primarily due to decreases in legal
expenses, which have fluctuated based on the activity relating to our various legal and regulatory proceedings, and lower consulting expenses.

Business development expense increased to $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $5.3 million for the comparable period in 2006. The primary reason for the increase was higher expenses related to the corporate brand
campaign, marketing and travel and entertainment costs.

Occupancy and equipment rentals expense increased slightly to $7.0 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2007, from $6.8 million for the comparable period in 2006.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the
Company recorded a benefit of $1.5 million due to the adjustment of previously recognized lease losses with respect to our 545 Washington Boulevard property in Jersey City, N.J. During the second quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a sub-lease
agreement for a portion of the premises for which it had previously recorded a lease loss accrual. The lease loss accrual was adjusted based on the difference between the actual terms of the sub-lease and the assumptions used in the calculation of
the lease loss accrual. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company incurred a charge of $8.5 million in writedowns of assets and lease loss accruals primarily relating to costs associated with excess real estate capacity in Jersey
City, N.J.

Other expenses decreased to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, from $10.3 million for the comparable
period in 2006. Other expenses in 2006 include a short swing profit settlement of approximately $2.8 million relating to trading by two Deephaven funds in the shares of a company while the funds owned in aggregate more than 10% of the outstanding
shares of the stock of that company.

Our effective tax rates from continuing operations of 39.1% and 40.2% for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, differed from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state income taxes and non-deductible charges.

Discontinued Operations

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $1.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007. See Footnote 9 Discontinued Operations and Footnote 11 Regulatory Charges and Related Matters, included in Part I, Item 1 Financial Statements of this document for a further discussion.

Subsequent Events

In July 2007, the
Company announced that Citadel Derivatives Group LLC, an affiliate of Citadel Investment Group, L.L.C., agreed to purchase a minority equity interest in Direct Edge ECN. The investment transaction received regulatory approval and closed on July 23,
2007.

On August 2, 2007, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Steven Bisgay as Chief Financial Officer,
effective August 10, 2007, succeeding John B. Howard, who is leaving the Company.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financial Condition

We have
historically maintained a highly liquid balance sheet, with a substantial portion of our total assets consisting of cash, highly liquid marketable securities, short term receivables and corporate investments as a limited partner or non-managing
member in our Deephaven Funds. As of June 30, 2007, we had $1.8 billion in assets, 59% of which consisted of cash or assets readily convertible into cash, principally receivables from brokers and dealers, asset management fees receivable and
securities owned. Asset management fees receivable includes incentive and management fees earned for sponsoring and managing the Deephaven Funds. Receivables from brokers and dealers include interest bearing cash balances held with clearing brokers,
including, or net of, amounts related to securities transactions that have not yet reached their contracted settlement date, which is generally within three business days of the trade date. Securities owned principally consist of equity securities

that trade in Nasdaq, on the OTC Bulletin Board and on the NYSE and AMEX markets. Deferred compensation investments consists of investments held by the
Company, including investments as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds, related to deferred compensation plans for the benefit of Knights employees and directors. Other assets primarily represent deferred tax assets,
deposits and miscellaneous receivables.

Total assets decreased $269.4 million, or 13.3%, from $2.0 billion at December 31, 2006 to
$1.8 billion at June 30, 2007. Total liabilities decreased $271.9 million, or 25.5%, from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2006 to $793.8 million at June 30, 2007. The majority of the decrease in assets and liabilities relate to decreases
in Securities owned and Securities sold, not yet purchased, as well as receivables from, and payables to, brokers and dealers, arising from a decrease in the size of the securities inventory utilized in our market making activities and trade
execution services. Our securities inventory fluctuates based on trading volumes, market conditions and our pre-determined risk limits. Deferred compensation investments increased by $54.3 million, from $31.6 million at December 31, 2006 to $85.9
million at June 30, 2007 due to additional investments for the benefit of Knights employees primarily related to prior year bonuses. Other assets increased by $45.9 million, or 54.0%, from $84.8 million at December 31, 2006 to $130.7
million at June 30, 2007 due to an increase in deferred tax assets related to our employee and director deferred compensation plans. Stockholders equity increased $2.5 million, from $962.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $965.0
million at June 30, 2007. The increase in Stockholders equity from December 31, 2006 was a result of our net income earned during the six months ended June 30, 2007, offset by our stock repurchases during the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, we
have financed our business primarily through cash generated by operations, as well as the proceeds from our stock issuances and, in 2004, from the proceeds of the sale of our Derivative Markets segment. At June 30, 2007, the Company had net
current assets, which consists of net assets readily convertible into cash, of approximately $182.9 million. Our corporate investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds was $200.8 million at June 30, 2007. The
majority of this investment can be liquidated upon request to Deephaven subject to a ninety-day written notification period and monthly redemption limits.

The Company has previously disclosed its intent to pursue selective acquisitions of (or possible joint ventures with) complementary businesses primarily in the markets in which our Global Markets and Asset Management
segments operate. We expect to fund the purchase price of any such acquisition with our current cash position or, in some cases, through the issuance of the Companys stock or debt.

We have acquired several businesses over the last two years. Several of these acquisitions provide for contingent payments. The acquisition of the
business of Direct Trading contains an additional contingent payment due in the third quarter of 2007 based on the profitability of that business during the second year of operation after acquisition. Such contingency payment is expected to be less
than $12.5 million. The purchase of Direct Edge ECN includes three additional annual contingent payments based on meeting certain revenue and client retention metrics; the maximum amount of the three remaining contingency payments, in the aggregate,
is $4.2 million. In April 2006, the Company acquired Hotspot for $77.5 million in cash. In October 2006, the Company acquired ValuBond for $18.2 million in cash. No assurance can be given with respect to the business effect of these transactions or
the timing, likelihood or business effect of any other possible transactions.

Income from continuing operations before income taxes was
$39.9 million and $50.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Included in these amounts were certain non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization and certain non-cash writedowns. Depreciation
expense from continuing operations was $4.1 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Amortization expense from continuing operations, which related to intangible assets, was $1.4 million and $1.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Capital expenditures related to our continuing operations
were $4.2 million and $3.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Purchases of strategic investments were $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. There were no proceeds from the sale of
strategic investments during the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. Payments related to acquisitions of businesses were $78.1

million during the three months ended June 30, 2006. Strategic investments and acquisition expenditures primarily relate to outside investments and
acquisitions of businesses in support of the development and growth of our business. Our corporate investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds increased by $5.4 million during the three months ended June 30,
2007, primarily due to earnings, but decreased by $49.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to redemptions of $50.0 million.

At its July 17, 2007 meeting, the Board of Directors authorized a $505 million increase to the Companys stock repurchase program, bringing the total to $1 billion. The Company repurchased 2.9 million
shares under the stock repurchase program during the second quarter of 2007 for $47.9 million. Through June 30, 2007, the Company had repurchased 47.2 million shares for $460.3 million under its stock repurchase program. The Company may
repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions, accelerated stock buyback programs, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or by other means. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan. The timing and amount of
repurchase transactions will be determined by the Companys management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, legal requirements and other factors. The program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without
prior notice. The Company cautions that there are no assurances that any further repurchases may actually occur. The Company had approximately 103.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2007.

We have no long-term debt at June 30, 2007 nor do we have any material long-term debt commitments for 2007. We anticipate that
available cash resources will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may, however, obtain credit facilities to fund our stock repurchase program, acquisitions or
other future capital needs of the firm.

Regulatory Net Capital

Our U.S. registered broker-dealers are subject to regulatory requirements intended to ensure the general financial soundness and liquidity of broker-dealers and requiring the maintenance of minimum levels of net
capital, as defined in SEC Rule 15c3-1. These regulations also prohibit a broker-dealer from repaying subordinated borrowings, paying cash dividends, making loans to its parent, affiliates or employees, or otherwise entering into transactions which
would result in a reduction of its total net capital to less than 120% of its required minimum capital. Moreover, broker-dealers are required to notify the SEC and NASD prior to repaying subordinated borrowings, paying dividends and making loans to
its parent, affiliates or employees, or otherwise entering into transactions, which, if executed, would result in a reduction of 30% or more of its excess net capital (net capital less minimum requirement). The SEC has the ability to prohibit or
restrict such transactions if the result is detrimental to the financial integrity of the broker-dealer. Our foreign registered broker-dealers and our FCM are subject to capital adequacy requirements of their respective regulatory authorities. As of
June 30, 2007, all of our broker-dealers and our FCM were in compliance with the regulatory capital requirements. The following table sets forth the net capital levels and requirements for the following significant regulated broker-dealer
subsidiaries at June 30, 2007, as filed in their respective regulatory filings (in millions):

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. We believe that, of our significant accounting policies, the following policies involve a higher
degree of judgment.

Lease Loss AccrualIt is the Companys policy to identify excess real estate capacity and where
applicable, accrue against such future costs. In determining the accrual, a nominal cash flow analysis is performed for lease losses initiated prior to December 31, 2002, the effective date of SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, and costs related to the excess capacity are accrued. For lease losses initiated after December 31, 2002, the Companys policy is to accrue future costs related to excess capacity using a
discounted cash flow analysis.

The Company incurred $8.5 million of Writedown of assets and lease loss accruals in the six months ended
June 30, 2006, relating to the lease loss accrual on a portion of our lease at 545 Washington Boulevard in Jersey City, N.J., encompassing approximately 78,000 square feet, all of which are unoccupied. The Writedown of assets and lease loss
accruals in the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was a benefit of $1.5 million, due to the adjustment of previously recognized lease losses with respect to our 545 Washington Boulevard property in Jersey City, N.J. During the second
quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a sub-lease agreement for a portion of the premises for which it had previously recorded a lease loss accrual. The lease loss accrual was adjusted based on the difference between the actual terms of the
sub-lease and the assumptions used in the calculation of the lease loss accrual. The remaining accrual was derived from assumptions and estimates based on lease terms of an anticipated additional sub-lease agreement, which assumed a sub-lease would
commence in the beginning of 2008, anticipated market prices along the Jersey City waterfront and estimated up-front costs, including broker fees and build-out allowances. We continually monitor the market rates for office space and the amount of
available office space in Jersey City, N.J. to assess the reasonableness of our applicable assumptions.

Impairment of Goodwill and
Intangible AssetsThe useful lives of intangible assets are determined upon acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over their respective lives. Goodwill and the useful lives of intangible assets are tested for impairment, at a
minimum, annually or when an event occurs or circumstances change that signifies the existence of impairment.

Goodwill of $133.1 million
as of June 30, 2007 is all related to our Global Markets segment. Goodwill is primarily related to the purchases of our listed equities market-maker, KCM, and the businesses now operating as Donaldson, Direct Trading, Direct Edge ECN, Hotspot
and ValuBond. We performed our annual test for impairment of goodwill in the second quarter of 2007 and determined that goodwill was not impaired at that time. As part of our test for impairment, we considered the profitability of the applicable
reporting unit, an assessment of fair value of the reporting unit based on various valuation methodologies, as well as the overall market value of the Company, compared to the Companys book value.

Intangible assets, less accumulated amortization, of $60.8 million as of June 30, 2007 are all attributable to our Global Markets segment.
Substantially all intangible assets resulted from the purchases of the businesses of Donaldson, Direct Trading, and Hotspot. These assets, which primarily consist of customer relationships, are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their
useful lives, the majority of which have been determined to range from eight to thirty years. We performed our annual test for impairment of intangible assets in the second quarter of 2007 and determined that intangible assets were not impaired
during that time.

Strategic Investments and Deferred Compensation InvestmentsStrategic investments include non-controlling
equity ownership interests primarily in financial services-related businesses. Deferred compensation investments consist of investments held by the Company related to deferred compensation plans for the benefit of Knights employees and
directors. Strategic investments and Deferred compensation investments are accounted for under the equity method, at cost or at fair market value. The equity method of accounting is used for investments in limited partnerships and limited liability
companies that are held by the Company or any of its non-broker-dealer subsidiaries. Investments in corporations by such non-broker-dealers are held at amortized cost. Deferred compensation investments in mutual funds are accounted for at fair
value.

Strategic investments are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure that the carrying values of the
investments have not been impaired. If the Company assesses that an impairment loss on a strategic investment has occurred due to a decline in fair value or other market conditions, the investment is written down to its estimated impaired value.

Market-Making ActivitiesSecurities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased, which primarily consist of listed and OTC
equities, are carried at market value and are recorded on a trade date basis. Net trading revenue (trading gains, net of trading losses) and commissions (which includes commission equivalents earned on institutional client orders) and related
expenses are also recorded on a trade date basis. The Companys clearing agreements call for payment or receipt of interest income, net of transaction-related interest charged by clearing brokers for facilitating the settlement and financing of
securities transactions.

Dividend income and expense relating to securities owned and securities sold, not yet purchased derived from our
market making activities are included as a component of Net trading revenue on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Asset
Management FeesDeephaven earns asset management fees for managing the Deephaven Funds. Management fees, which are received monthly, are recorded as earned and are calculated as a percentage of each Deephaven Funds monthly net assets.

Incentive allocation fees are earned based upon the performance of the Deephaven Funds and are calculated based upon a percentage of a new
high net asset value, as defined in the applicable private placement offering memorandum, for some funds, for the six month performance period ended June 30th or December 31st, and for the twelve month performance period ended
December 31st for other funds. A new high net asset value is defined as the amount by which the net asset value of an investors account in the particular Deephaven fund exceeds the greater of either the investors highest previous
net asset value in that Deephaven fund or the net asset value at the time the investor made a purchase.

The Company records incentive
allocation fees in accordance with Method 2 of EITF Topic D-96. Under this methodology, the Company recognizes incentive allocation fees income for each interim period based upon the amount that would be due if the investment advisory relationship
with the Deephaven Funds were terminated at the end of such period.

The incentive allocation fee may increase or decrease during the year
based on the performance of the Deephaven Funds. As such, the incentive allocation fee, in certain circumstances, may be negative for certain periods, but not lower than zero for any six-month performance period ended June 30th or
December 31st, for some funds, or the twelve month performance period ended December 31st for other funds. Incentive allocation fees are paid upon the close of each six month performance period, or twelve month performance period, as the
case may be, and are not subject to repayment (i.e., clawback) once such performance period has closed. If a fund with a six month performance period incurs losses in the performance period ended December 31st, the Company may make the
determination, at its sole discretion, to return all or a portion of incentive allocation fees collected for the prior six month performance period ending June 30th of that year.

Writedown of Fixed AssetsWritedowns of fixed assets are recognized when it is determined that the fixed assets are impaired. The amount of
the impairment is determined by the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value of the fixed asset. In determining the impairment, an estimated fair value is obtained through research and inquiry of the market. Fixed assets
are reviewed for impairment on a periodic basis.

Other EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with
GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. In addition to the estimates that we make in connection with accounting for the items noted above, the use of estimates is also important in determining provisions for potential
losses that may arise from litigation, regulatory proceedings and tax audits.

SFAS No. 123-R requires that we make certain estimates and assumptions relating to volatility and
forfeiture rates when determining stock-based employee compensation expense. Volatility is estimated based on several factors including implied volatility of market-traded options on our common stock on the grant date and the historical volatility
of the Companys common stock. Forfeiture rates are estimated based on historical rates of forfeiture of employee stock awards.

A
portion of our Employee compensation and benefits expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations represents discretionary bonuses, which are accrued for throughout the year and paid after the end of the year. Among many factors, discretionary
bonus accruals are generally influenced by the Companys overall performance and competitive industry compensation levels.

We
estimate and accrue for potential losses that may arise out of litigation, regulatory proceedings and tax audits to the extent that such losses are probable and can be estimated in accordance with SFAS No. 5 Accounting for Contingencies.
Significant judgment is required in making these estimates and our final liabilities may ultimately be materially different. Our total liability accrued with respect to litigation and regulatory proceedings is determined on a case-by-case basis and
represents an estimate of probable losses based on, among other factors, the progress of each case, our experience with and industry experience with similar cases and the opinions and views of internal and external legal counsel. Given the inherent
difficulty of predicting the outcome of our litigation and regulatory matters, particularly in cases or proceedings in which substantial or indeterminate damages or fines are sought, or where cases or proceedings are in the early stages, we cannot
estimate losses or ranges of losses for cases or proceedings where there is only a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred. For more information on our legal and regulatory matters, see Legal Proceedings in Part I, Item 3
of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1 included in this document.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2007, the AICPA issued Statement of Position (SOP) No. 07-1, Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and
Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies(SOP 07-1). SOP 07-1 addresses when the accounting principles of the AICPA Audit and
Accounting Guide Investment Companiesmust be applied by an entity and whether those accounting principles must be retained by a parent company in consolidation or by an investor in the application of the equity method of accounting. SOP 07-1
is effective for the Company beginning as of January 1, 2008. We are evaluating the effect of adopting SOP 07-1.

In February 2007,
the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 The Fair Value Option for Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS No. 159
is effective for the Company beginning as of January 1, 2008. We are evaluating the potential impact of adopting SFAS No. 159.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Company beginning as of January 1, 2008. We are evaluating the potential impact of adopting SFAS No. 157.

In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB
108), which provides guidance on quantifying and evaluating the materiality of unrecorded prior year misstatements. The SEC staff indicates that a Company should quantify the impact of correcting all misstatements, including both the carryover
and reversing effects of prior year misstatements, on the current year financial statements. Companies may choose to restate their financial statements for any material misstatements arising from the application of SAB 108 or recognize a cumulative
effect adjustment within the current year opening balance in retained earnings, with disclosure of such items. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. SAB 108 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Market Risk

Our market-making and trading activities expose our capital to significant risks. These risks include, but are
not limited to, absolute and relative price movements, price volatility and changes in liquidity, over which we have virtually no control.

For working capital purposes, we invest in money market funds, commercial paper and government securities or maintain interest-bearing balances in our trading accounts with clearing brokers, which are classified as Cash and cash equivalents
and Receivable from brokers and dealers, respectively, on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. These other amounts do not have maturity dates or present a material market risk, as the balances are short-term in nature and subject to
daily repricing. Our cash and cash equivalents held in foreign currencies are subject to the exposure of foreign currency fluctuations. These balances are monitored daily, and are not material to the Companys overall cash position.

In Global Markets, we employ proprietary position management and trading systems that provide real-time, on-line position management and inventory
control. We monitor our risks by reviewing trading positions and their appropriate risk measures. We have established a system whereby transactions are monitored by senior management on a real-time basis as are individual and aggregate dollar and
inventory position totals and real-time profits and losses. The management of trading positions is enhanced by review of mark-to-market valuations and position summaries on a daily basis.

In the normal course of our equities market-making business, we maintain inventories of exchange-listed and OTC equity securities. The fair value of
these securities at June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $434.0 million and $577.8 million, respectively, in long positions and $416.6 million and $530.6 million, respectively, in short positions. The potential change in fair value, using a hypothetical
10% decline in prices, is estimated to be a $1.7 million loss and a $4.7 million loss as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, due to the offset of gains in short positions with the losses in long positions.

As of June 30, 2007, we had a $200.8 million corporate investment as a limited partner or non-managing member in the Deephaven Funds, $154.6 million
of which was invested in the Market Neutral Fund. As of June 30, 2007, approximately 42% of the Deephaven Funds assets under management were in the Deephaven Market Neutral Fund. The investment philosophy for the Market Neutral Fund is to
seek to produce returns for its investors using various investment strategies focusing on delivering attractive risk-adjusted rates of return. The performance of the Market Neutral Fund is intended to be substantially non-correlated with the general
debt and equity markets, as well as with a number of other non-traditional investment strategies. Its returns are primarily dependent upon equity trading volumes, equity volatility, mergers and acquisitions and secondary offering activity in the
capital markets, and credit spread relationships, among other factors. Within the Market Neutral Fund, Deephaven generally employs a variety of investment strategies, including event-driven, volatility-driven, fundamental equity, credit-driven and
global macro strategies among others. There is no material limitation on the types of investment strategies that may be employed by the Market Neutral Fund.

There will be unhedged asset factor risks (i.e. equity, credit, interest rate, foreign exchange) in the Market Neutral Fund. Deephaven also manages single-strategy funds that pursue investment strategies which involve
substantial risks based on the fact that they are less diversified strategies and could be more vulnerable to structural economic and regulatory changes, or general market conditions. The less diversified nature of these strategies may cause their
performance to be more volatile and result in the incurrence of greater losses during unprofitable periods as compared to a more diversified approach.

Separately, Deephavens business also involves specific categories of trading and operational risk. For example, although Deephaven may attempt to hedge positions as part of its trading strategies, there is no
assurance that adequate hedging opportunities will exist. Moreover, Deephaven relies to a material degree on its



38

##### Table of Contents

prime brokers to provide leverage, custody, execution and other services, but there is no assurance that the prime brokers will continue to provide the
amount of leverage which they have in the past, or on the same terms, or provide any of the other services they currently provide, on a cost-effective basis. Deephaven also faces significant risk from the fact that any of its trading counterparties
could fail, which would likely have the effect of greatly diminishing the value of the assets which are the subject of trades with that counterparty. Finally, if Deephaven does not appropriately structure its use of leverage, the losses the funds
incur could be materially exacerbated.

Deephaven monitors its trading risks by reviewing trading positions and their appropriate risk
measures. We have established a system whereby transactions are monitored by management and an independent risk control function, as are individual and aggregate dollar and inventory position totals and profits and losses by strategy. The management
of trading positions is enhanced by review of mark-to-market valuations and position summaries. There can be no assurances that any of the Deephaven Funds strategies will be successful in achieving either its risk control or its profit
objectives.

Operational Risk

Operational risk can arise from many factors ranging from routine processing errors to potentially costly incidents arising, for example, from major systems failures. The Company incurs operational risk across all of its business
activities, including revenue generating activities as well as support functions. Legal and compliance risk is included in the scope of operational risk and is discussed below under Legal Risk.

Primary responsibility for the management of operational risk lies with the business segments and supporting functions. The business segments maintain
controls designed to manage and mitigate operational risk for existing activities. As new products and business activities are developed, operational risks are identified and controls are designed to mitigate the identified risks.

Disaster recovery plans are in place for critical facilities related to our primary operations and resources and redundancies are built into the systems
as deemed appropriate. The Company has also established policies, procedures and technologies to protect its systems and other assets from unauthorized access.

Legal Risk

Legal risk includes the risk of non-compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements and standards.
Legal risk also includes contractual and commercial risk such as the risk that a counterpartys performance obligations will be unenforceable. The Company is generally subject to extensive regulation in the different jurisdictions in which it
conducts its business (see Government Regulation and Market Structure in Part I, Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006). The Company has established procedures based on legal and
regulatory requirements that are designed to foster compliance with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. The Company also has established procedures that are designed to require that the Companys policies relating to conduct,
ethics and business practices are followed.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

As of the end of the
period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation
of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) during the last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART II    OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

From time to time, we and
certain of our past and present officers, directors and employees have been named as parties to legal actions, securities arbitrations, administrative claims and regulatory reviews and investigations arising in connection with the conduct of our
businesses. We are also subject to several of these matters at the present time. Although there can be no assurances, at this time the Company believes, based on information currently available, that the outcome of each of the matters will not have
a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company, although they might be material to operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon operating results for that period.

Legal

Short Selling
Litigation

In May 2007, the following development occurred in the Eagletech Communications Inc. et al. v. Citigroup et al.action described in the Companys Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2007:

In May 2007, the Company was
served with the complaint. The case has been removed to the Federal Court for the Southern District of Florida, where it is currently pending.

Shortly after the end of the second quarter, the following development occurred in the short selling litigation described in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006:

On July 11, 2007, the Second Circuit affirmed in all respects the district courts dismissal of the complaint and denial of leave to replead in
ATSI v. The Shaar Fund, Ltd. et al.

Regulatory

The Company owns subsidiaries including regulated entities that are subject to extensive oversight under federal, state and applicable international laws
as well as SRO rules. Changes in market structure and the need to remain competitive require constant changes to our systems and order handling procedures. The Company makes these changes while continuously endeavoring to comply with many complex
laws and rules. Compliance, surveillance or trading issues, common in the securities industry, and which are monitored or reported to the SEC, CFTC or SROs, are reviewed in the ordinary course of business by our primary regulators, the SEC, NASD,
FSA, CFTC, MSRB and NFA. The Company, as a major order flow execution destination, is named from time to time in, or is asked to respond to a number of regulatory matters brought by U.S. regulators, foreign regulators and SROs that arise from its
trading activity. The Company is currently the subject of various regulatory reviews and investigations. In some instances, these matters may rise to a SEC, CFTC, FSA or SRO disciplinary action and/or civil or administrative action.

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, in March 2005, NASD announced that it had charged Kenneth
Pasternak, former CEO of Knight Securities, L.P. (KSLP, now known as KEM), and John Leighton, former head of KSLPs institutional sales desk, in an administrative complaint alleging supervisory violations in connection with
fraudulent sales to institutional customers in 1999 and 2000. Pursuant to a decision dated April 11, 2007, the majority of a NASD Hearing Panel found that Pasternak and Leighton failed to supervise KSLPs Institutional Sales
Department reasonably during the period of January 1999 to September 2000 in violation of NASD rules. Pasternak and Leighton were each fined $100,000. Pasternak was suspended in all supervisory capacities for two years and Leighton was barred in all
supervisory capacities. On or about May 3, 2007, Pasternak and Leighton each filed a Notice of Appeal from the NASD Hearing Panels decision. In May 2007, the NASD filed a Notice of Cross-Appeal from the NASD Hearing Panels decision.

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

The following risk factor is added to
supplement the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006:



| |  |  | Risks and uncertainties regarding the Companys substantially increased share repurchase program
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On July 17, 2007, the Board of Directors approved an increase of $505 million in the authorization under the Companys existing stock
repurchase program. The pursuit and completion of the Companys substantially increased share repurchase program is uncertain and subject to a variety of risks, including, without limitation, whether or not the Company will complete
the share repurchase program during any particular time frame or at all, whether the Companys cash flow from earnings and cash on hand will be sufficient to fund the share repurchase program, and the effect of pursuing the program on the
Companys balance sheet (including the potential use of cash on the Companys balance sheet and possible incurrence of debt to finance the program). In addition, the pursuit of the program is subject to the impact of market
conditions, trading restrictions, legal requirements and alternative requirements for available cash. It is possible that pursuing the program will limit the ability of the Company to pursue other needs and opportunities that may
arise, such as capital expenditures, acquisitions and other opportunities to grow our business.

In addition to the other information set
forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which could materially affect our business,
financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2007, and herein, are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not
currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

|(1) | As a matter of policy, the Company does not repurchase its Class A Common Stock during self-imposed closed window periods.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | On April 4, 2002, the Companys Board of Directors announced the authorization of a stock repurchase program, which allowed for the purchase of Class A Common Stock
up to a total amount of $35 million. This repurchase program was increased by an aggregate of $965 million to a total of $1 billion by resolutions of the Companys Board of Directors adopted on July 16, 2002, May 12,
2003, April 20, 2004, August 8, 2004, April 19, 2005, October 18, 2005, April 18, 2006 and July 17, 2007. The Company may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions, accelerated
stock buyback programs, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or by other means. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by the Companys management
based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, legal requirements and other factors. The program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Company cautions that there are no assurances
that any further repurchases may actually occur. The repurchase program has no set expiration or termination date.
