5


    



P Units shall consist of 75% of the Incentive P Units with each Class P Performance Threshold applicable to the Incentive P Units; and

Any Continuing P Units that do not satisfy the applicable Class P Performance Conditions on or before the last day of the foregoing period shall be forfeited as of such date.
(3)    Resignation.  If the Limited Partner is subject to a Withdrawal due to Resignation at any time (regardless of whether or not the Class P Service Condition has been satisfied at the time of such Withdrawal), all unvested Incentive P Units (including any that have satisfied the Class P Service Condition) shall be forfeited as of the date of such Withdrawal.
(v)    Effect of Forfeiture.  Any unvested or conditionally vested Incentive P Units forfeited by the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts in accordance with this Section 3(a) shall be cancelled.

(vi)    Continued Compliance with Restrictive Covenants.  If the Limited Partner ceases to be an Active Individual LP, regardless of the reason, including any termination or resignation (whether, for the avoidance of doubt, due to the failure of the Buyer to offer a Comparable Position or otherwise in connection with or following a Change of Control, and in such case irrespective of whether the Limited Partner remains in service in a Comparable Position through the COC Vesting Period (as defined below)), the retention of any conditionally vested Incentive Units by the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts in accordance with this Section 3(a) or Section 4 (including any unvested Incentive Units that become vested in accordance with this Section 3(a) or Section 4) shall be subject to (A) the Limited Partner complying in all respects with the Limited Partnership Agreement including, without limitation, the restrictions regarding Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement, Non-Interference, Short Selling, Hedging Transactions, and Compliance with Policies, each as set forth in Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.18, and 2.19 of the Limited Partnership Agreement; provided, however, that an inadvertent and de minimis breach of (w) Section 2.12(a) thereof (and in the event that the Limited Partner is aware or becomes aware of any such breach or any other breach of Section 2.12 thereof, the Limited Partner immediately notifies the Partnership of such breach and immediately returns (or if so directed by the Partnership, destroys) any confidential information implicated in such breach which is in 


6


    



the Limited Partner's possession), (x) Section 2.13(d) thereof, but solely in respect of the Employee Solicitation Restriction, (y) Section 2.13(e) thereof, or (z) Section 2.19 thereof, but solely in respect of policies and procedures that do not relate to requirements of law, any recognized stock exchange or other regulatory body or authority, in each case, shall not be deemed to be a breach of the Limited Partnership Agreement solely for purposes of this Section 3(a)(vi), and (B) the Limited Partner executing and not revoking a general release agreement.  Such general release agreement shall be in the form set forth in Exhibit A to the Limited Partnership Agreement, subject only to revisions necessary to reflect changes in applicable law.
(b)    Non-Competition Provisions.
(i)    Non-Competition Covenant.  Notwithstanding any provisions of the Existing Partner Agreements to the contrary, the Restricted Period with respect to the Limited Partner shall, for purposes of Section 2.13(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, conclude on the last day of the 24-month period immediately following the date of the Limited Partner's Special Withdrawal or Withdrawal, regardless of the reason for the Special Withdrawal or Withdrawal, including any termination or resignation (whether, for the avoidance of doubt, due to the failure of the Buyer to offer a Comparable Position or otherwise in connection with or following a Change of Control, and in any such case irrespective of whether the Limited Partner remains in service in a Comparable Position through the COC Vesting Period).
(ii)    Consequences of Breach.  The Incentive Units hereunder shall be conditionally granted subject to the Limited Partner's compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 2.13(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement.  Without limitation or contradiction of the foregoing, and in addition to the applicability of Section 2.13(g) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the Limited Partner agrees that it would be impossible to compute the actual damages resulting from a breach of any such covenants, and that the amounts set forth in this Section 3(b)(ii) are reasonable and do not operate as a penalty, but are a genuine pre-estimate of the anticipated loss that the Partnership and other members of the Och-Ziff Group would suffer from breach of any such covenants.  In the event the Limited Partner breaches any such covenants, then the Limited Partner shall have failed to satisfy the condition subsequent to the grants of Incentive Units and the Limited Partner agrees that:
(1)    on or after the date of such breach, any Incentive P Units shall be forfeited and cancelled;
(2)    on or after the date of such breach, any Incentive D Units (or any Class A Common Units into which such Incentive D Units have converted) shall thereafter be reallocated from the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts and shall be reallocated in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement;
(3)    on or after the date of such breach, all allocations and distributions on the Common Units described in paragraph (2) above that would otherwise 


7


    



have been received by the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts on or after the date of such breach shall thereafter be reallocated from them in accordance with the reallocations of such Common Units described above;
(4)    on or after the date of such breach, no allocations shall be made to the Limited Partner's Capital Accounts and no distributions shall be made to the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts in respect of any Incentive Units (or any Class A Common Units into which such Incentive Units have converted);
(5)    on or after the date of such breach, no Transfer (including any exchange pursuant to the Exchange Agreements) of any Incentive Units (or any Class A Common Units into which such Incentive Units have converted) of the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts shall be permitted under any circumstances notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement;
(6)    on or after the date of such breach, no sale, exchange, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, bequest, creation of an encumbrance, or any other transfer or disposition of any kind may be made of any of the Class A Shares acquired by the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts through (x) an exchange of any Incentive P Units pursuant to the Class P Exchange Agreement or (y) an exchange of any Class A Common Units into which any Incentive D Units have converted pursuant to the Class A Exchange Agreement (any Class A Shares referenced in clause (x) or (y), collectively, "Exchanged Class A Shares"); and
(7)    on the Reallocation Date, the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts shall immediately:
(A)    pay to the Continuing Partners, in accordance with Section 2.13(g) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, a lump-sum cash amount equal to the sum of: (i) the total after-tax proceeds received by the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts for any Exchanged Class A Shares that were transferred during the 24-month period prior to the date of such breach; and (ii) any distributions received by the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts during such 24-month period on Exchanged Class A Shares;

8


    



received by the Limited Partner or his Related Trusts on or after the date of such breach on Exchanged Class A Shares.

(d)    COC Incentive Units.
(i)    The COC Incentive Units shall become conditionally vested on the second anniversary of the Change of Control Date (such period from the Change of Control Date to the second anniversary thereof, the "COC Vesting Period").  Such vesting shall be conditioned on the Limited Partner continuing to provide service to the buyer or successor entity or entities (collectively, the "Buyer") in a Comparable Position (as defined in Section 4(e) below) through the COC Vesting Period; provided, that if during the COC Vesting Period, the Limited Partner's service in a Comparable Position is terminated by the Buyer without Cause, or by the Limited Partner because his position ceases to be a Comparable Position, 100% of the COC Incentive Units shall vest as of the date of such termination.  The Partnership will cooperate with any position taken by the Buyer and the Limited Partner to treat the transaction as an installment sale for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to the extent consistent with applicable law, in any situation where the transaction is a taxable sale or exchange. 
(ii)    Notwithstanding Section 4(d)(i) to the contrary, if the Buyer or ultimate parent thereof is an entity that is either (x) organized in a jurisdiction outside the United States or (y) has its principal place of business outside the United States, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Buyer to establish an escrow for the COC Incentive Units on the terms set forth below in this Section 4(d)(ii), provided, that if the Partnership has used commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Buyer to establish such an escrow as required by this paragraph then in no event shall the failure to establish such an escrow constitute a breach of this Agreement.
(1)    With respect to such COC Incentive Units, (i) the after-tax portion thereof (as calculated based on the Presumed Tax Rate, plus the marginal self-employment tax rate or the net investment income tax rate, as applicable (the "Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate")) shall be placed into an escrow account with a nationally recognized independent fiduciary institution agreed to by the Limited Partner and the Buyer (with reasonable costs paid by the Partnership) until released as provided below, and (ii) the remainder paid over to the Limited Partner at the time of the Change of Control.  The escrow account shall be deemed owned by the Limited Partner and shall be entitled to receive any dividends or earnings on the escrowed amounts and adjusted to reflect changes in the value of the escrowed amounts. An amount necessary to cover taxes at the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate, on any dividends and earnings from the previous calendar quarter, shall be distributed to the Limited Partner on the fifth day of each calendar quarter.

(2)    The remaining amounts in the escrow account shall be released to the Limited Partner on the expiration of the COC Vesting Period; provided, that the Limited Partner shall continue to provide service to the Buyer in a Comparable Position during the COC Vesting Period; and further provided, that if during the COC Vesting Period, the Limited Partner's service in a Comparable Position is terminated by the Buyer without Cause, or by the Limited Partner because his position ceases to be a Comparable Position, 100% of the remaining amount in the escrow account shall be released to the Limited Partner as of the date of such termination (and any requirement to escrow additional paid or released proceeds pursuant to Section 4(f) shall terminate).  In the event that the Limited Partner does not satisfy the foregoing conditions for release of the aforementioned amounts from the escrow account, the remaining amounts in the escrow account shall be reallocated to Daniel S. Och in accordance with the provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement as in effect on the Incentive Grant Date. The Limited Partner shall be considered the owner of the escrow account and subject to tax on its earnings unless and until the amounts therein become required to be paid to Daniel S. Och as described above.
(iii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Limited Partner does not accept a written offer for a Comparable Position upon a Change of Control, then all of the COC Incentive Units shall be forfeited on such date; provided, that in the event that the Limited Partner does not respond to such offer within seven (7) business days he shall be deemed to have rejected such offer.
(e)    Comparable Position.
(i)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Limited Partner is not offered a Comparable Position (as defined in Section 4(e)(ii) below) in writing upon the occurrence of such Change of Control, then (A) an additional 25% of the total then-unvested Incentive D Units shall become conditionally vested on the Change of Control Date and participate in such Change of Control in accordance with Section 4(b)(i) (and shall not be treated as COC Incentive D Units for purposes of this Agreement), and the remaining 25% of the total then-unvested Incentive D Units shall be forfeited, and (B) 100% of the Incentive P Units shall become conditionally vested on the Change of Control Date and shall participate in the Change of Control in accordance with Section 4(c)(i) (with no Incentive P Units being treated as COC Incentive P Units for purposes of this Agreement).
(ii)    A "Comparable Position" means a position in which (A) the Limited Partner's primary office remains located in the New York metropolitan area, (B) the Limited Partner receives compensation that is comparable in the aggregate to the compensation he was receiving immediately prior to the Change of Control (excluding for purposes of such comparison any equity compensation and any compensation based on equity ownership, including distributions on equity, the Limited Partner receives prior to or following the Change of Control), and which is not less than the rate of $4 million 


12


    



per year, (C) the Limited Partner's duties, responsibilities and reporting relationships are not materially diminished, provided that the Limited Partner ceasing to be an executive officer of a public company or ceasing to report to a board of directors of a public company, in each case as a result of the Change of Control, shall not constitute a material diminution for this purpose, and (D) the Limited Partner's employment is not conditioned (x) on a contractual agreement to remain in service for more than two years or (y) on compliance with any restrictive covenants other than those provided in (or any other restrictive covenants that are substantially similar in principle, scope and duration to those provided in) Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.16, 2.18 and 2.19 of the Limited Partnership Agreement, or for any period longer than 24 months following the Limited Partner's Withdrawal, Special Withdrawal or any other termination of service with the Partnership.  The Limited Partner agrees and acknowledges that, although the Buyer in its sole discretion may choose to offer equity or cash incentives or other compensation to the Limited Partner in respect of the Limited Partner's continued service during the period between the Change of Control Date and the second anniversary of the Change of Control Date, the provisions relating to the continued vesting of the COC Incentive Units pursuant to Section 4(d) in addition to payments at a rate of not less than $4 million per year shall be deemed to satisfy clause (B) of the definition of "Comparable Position" for the COC Vesting Period and the Buyer need not offer any such equity or cash incentives or other compensation to the Limited Partner in respect of the COC Vesting Period in order for the position offered by the Buyer to the Limited Partner to constitute a "Comparable Position."
(f)    The Incentive Units shall participate in any earn-outs, escrows and other holdbacks on the same basis as the Class D Common Units or Class P Common Units of the other Limited Partners, as applied on a pro rata basis in respect of the Incentive Units.  Any consideration that is released or otherwise becomes earned and payable in respect of the Incentive Units during the COC Vesting Period shall be paid or retained, as applicable, in accordance with the applicable vesting provisions set forth in Section 4(d), as applied on a pro rata basis in respect of the Incentive Units.
(g)    In the event that the Limited Partner prevails in any action seeking to enforce any right provided to him in this Section 4 as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, the Buyer shall pay to the Limited Partner all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Limited Partner in seeking such action.  Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days after delivery of the Limited Partner's written request for payment accompanied by such evidence of reasonable fees and expenses incurred as the Buyer reasonably may require, in all events following such final judicial determination.
5.    Additional Payments.
(a)    For each of Fiscal Years 2017, 2018 and 2019, the Limited Partner shall receive cash payments from one or more of the Partnership or the other Operating Group Entities in the aggregate amount of $4 million per Fiscal Year ("Additional Payments").  The aggregate Additional Payments with respect to each such Fiscal Year shall be paid by one or more of the 


13


    



Operating Group Entities quarterly in advance, with an aggregate amount of $1 million to be paid by the Operating Group Entities to the Limited Partner on the first business day of each calendar quarter of such Fiscal Year; provided that the Additional Payment with respect to the first calendar quarter of Fiscal Year 2017 shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than the first business day of the calendar month following the date of this Agreement.  Each quarterly Additional Payment shall reduce the excess (if any) of (i) the aggregate cash distributions in respect of such quarter of such Fiscal Year that would otherwise have been made by the Operating Group Entities to the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts in respect of all of their Common Units in the Operating Group Entities (each, a "Quarterly Distribution") or other interests in the Operating Group Entities (other than Tax Liability Payments (as defined below)) (such distributions, including Quarterly Distributions, "Partnership Distributions") over (ii) the Limited Partner's Presumed Tax Liability (as calculated for purposes of this Agreement based on the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate rather than the Presumed Tax Rate) with respect to such quarter for all Operating Group Entities (such excess, the "After-Tax Distribution Amount"). Any Additional Payment not applied to reduce an After-Tax Distribution Amount shall be applied to reduce the next quarter's After-Tax Distribution Amount and each subsequent quarter's After-Tax Distribution Amount until the full aggregate amount of all prior Additional Payments have been applied to reduce After-Tax Distribution Amounts; provided, that (i) the quarterly Additional Payments made during one Fiscal Year may only be applied to reduce After-Tax Distribution Amounts with respect to the same Fiscal Year and (ii) to the extent the aggregate Additional Payments plus After-Tax Distribution Amounts with respect to a Fiscal Year equal at least $4 million, no further Additional Payments shall be made with respect to such Fiscal Year.  For U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, Additional Payments shall be treated as advances of the applicable Quarterly Distributions. To the extent the aggregate amount of all Additional Payments for a Fiscal Year exceed applicable Partnership Distributions for such Fiscal Year (excluding any Partnership Distributions with respect to prior Fiscal Years), such excess shall be treated as a distributive share of profits with respect to the Limited Partner's Class C Non-Equity Interests of the relevant Operating Group Entity.  To the extent that, following the end of any Fiscal Year, the General Partner determines that any After-Tax Distribution Amounts should be recalculated based on the actual taxable income allocated to the Limited Partner, the Partnership or one of the other Operating Group Entities will make a payment to the Limited Partner as an adjustment to the relevant prior Additional Payment(s) or Partnership Distributions for such Fiscal Year, or the Operating Group Entities shall reduce subsequent distributions or payments to the Limited Partner as provided above, as applicable, to effect the recalculation (and such adjustment shall be ignored for purposes of this Section 5(a) for the Fiscal Year for which the adjustment is made).
(b)    In respect of each Fiscal Year (each, an "Applicable Year") during the period commencing with calendar year 2017 and ending with the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar year during which 60% of the Incentive P Units in each Operating Group Entity become exchangeable in accordance with Section 10 below and (ii) the last day of calendar year 2022, if (x) the Presumed Tax Liability (as calculated for purposes of this Agreement based on the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate rather than the Presumed Tax Rate) associated with cumulative allocations of income made by all Operating Group Entities to the Limited Partner in respect of all of the Common Units in the Operating Group Entities held by him and his Related Trusts 


14


    



(excluding any tax liability associated with any Additional Payments) during the period commencing with January 1, 2017, and ending on the last day of the relevant Applicable Year (the "Measurement Period"), based on the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate applicable to each Fiscal Year, exceeds (y) the aggregate Partnership Distributions (excluding advances of Additional Payments but including Tax Liability Payments for prior Fiscal Years net of the Presumed Tax Liability associated with such Tax Liability Payments) made to the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts in respect of the Measurement Period (any such excess, the "Tax Liability Shortfall"), the Operating Group Entities shall make an aggregate payment to the Limited Partner equal to the Tax Liability Shortfall divided by one minus the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate (a "Tax Liability Payment").  The Tax Liability Payment with respect to each Applicable Year shall be paid to the Limited Partner by the Operating Group Entities no later than ten days prior to April 15 of the year after the relevant Applicable Year.  The portion of the Tax Liability Payment made by the Partnership shall be treated as a distributive share of profits with respect to the Limited Partner's Class C Non-Equity Interests in the Partnership.
(c)    If the Limited Partner is subject to a Withdrawal due to Resignation prior to December 31, 2019, the After-Tax Distribution Amount of Partnership Distributions to be made to the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts following the date of such Withdrawal shall be reduced by an aggregate amount equal to the sum of all of the Additional Payments and Tax Liability Payments made to the Limited Partner prior to such date.
(d)    For purpose of this Section 5, (i) the Aggregate Presumed Tax Rate shall be determined based on the tax rates in effect with respect to the applicable year to which the relevant tax liability pertains and (ii) distributions or payments "in respect of" a Fiscal Year may include distributions or payments that occur after the end of such Fiscal Year (as in the case of the fourth quarter of the Fiscal Year).  
6.    No Other Compensation.  The Limited Partner agrees that (a) except for the compensation to be provided to the Limited Partner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or in respect of any equity interests in the Och-Ziff Group previously issued to the Limited Partner pursuant to existing agreements and for customary expense reimbursements, the Limited Partner shall not be entitled to any other compensation or distributions from, or have any interests in, any entity in the Och-Ziff Group or any Affiliates thereof, except for any capital investments made by the Limited Partner in any funds managed by the Och-Ziff Group, and (b) consistent with the restrictions set forth in Sections 2.16 and 2.19 of the Limited Partnership Agreement and the Och-Ziff Group's compliance policies that are generally applicable to Active Individual LPs that restrict outside investments, the Limited Partner shall not have any interests in, or receive compensation of any type from, businesses or entities other than the Operating Group Entities and their Affiliates.
7.    Delegation to Class B Shareholder Committee.  Notwithstanding any provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement, any Existing Partner Agreement or this Agreement to the contrary, the Limited Partner hereby irrevocably delegates all power and authority to the Class B Shareholder Committee to exercise, on his behalf, any and all of his rights in respect of Class B Shares issued in connection with his Incentive D Units (upon such Incentive D Units becoming 


15


    



Class A Common Units), and Incentive P Units, to the same extent as is provided to the Class B Shareholder Committee with respect to Class A Units pursuant to the Class B Shareholders Agreement dated as of November 13, 2007, as amended from time to time (the "Class B Shareholders Agreement").  The Limited Partner acknowledges and agrees that all such Class B Shares will be subject to the Class B Shareholder Agreement upon issuance thereof.
8.    Distributions.  Notwithstanding any provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement to the contrary, the Limited Partner shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Partnership in respect of his unvested and vested Incentive D Units beginning with distributions with respect to the income earned by the Partnership on and after the Incentive Grant Date that are equivalent to those generally distributable to the Partners of the Partnership in respect of their Common Units.  The Limited Partner shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Partnership in respect of any Participating Class P Common Units as provided in the Limited Partnership Agreement.
9.    Compensation Clawback Policy.  As a highly regulated, global alternative asset management firm, the Company has had a long-standing commitment to ensure that its partners, officers and employees adhere to the highest professional and personal standards. In the case of fraud, misconduct or malfeasance by any of its partners, officers or employees, including, without limitation any fraud, misconduct or malfeasance that leads to a restatement of the Company's financial results, or as required by law, the Compensation Committee would consider and likely pursue a disgorgement of prior compensation, where appropriate based on the facts and circumstances.  The Compensation Committee will adopt and amend clawback policies as it determines to be appropriate, including, without limitation, to comply with the final implementing rules regarding compensation clawbacks mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and any other applicable law.  The Compensation Committee may extend and apply such clawback provisions to similarly situated levels of partners that may not be required to be covered by applicable law as it determines to be necessary or appropriate in its discretion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Limited Partner hereby consents to comply with all of the terms and conditions of any such compensation clawback policy adopted by the Compensation Committee which may apply to the Limited Partner and other similarly situated partners on or after the date hereof, and also agrees to perform all further acts and execute, acknowledge and deliver any documents and to take any further action requested by the Company to give effect to the foregoing.  No clawback policy shall directly expand the restrictive covenants set forth herein, except as required by law or as recommended as best practices by proxy advisory firm compensation or corporate governance guidelines.
10.    Exchange Rights.  
(a)    Notwithstanding any terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Class P Exchange Agreement to the contrary, the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts shall have no rights to exchange their Incentive P Units except as specifically provided in Section 10(b) below.


16


    



(b)    Notwithstanding any terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Class P Exchange Agreement to the contrary but subject to Section 10(c) below, to the extent that (i) the Incentive P Units have become Participating Class P Common Units and the same number of Class P Common Units granted to the Limited Partner in each of the other Operating Group Entities on the Incentive Grant Date have become Participating Class P Common Units (as defined in the limited partnership agreements of such other Operating Group Entities) and (ii) that sufficient Appreciation has occurred with respect to the Partnership and the other Operating Group Entities such that, in the determination of the General Partner, all such Participating Class P Common Units in each Operating Group Entity have each become economically equivalent to a Class A Common Unit in such Operating Group Entity as described in Section 3(j)(ii) of the limited partnership agreement of the Operating Group Entity, then such Participating Class P Common Units may participate, in one or more exchanges in the Limited Partner's discretion as follows: (A) at any time thereafter, up to 60% of the Class P Common Units in each Operating Group Entity may be exchanged in the aggregate, and (B) on and after each of the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth anniversaries of the Incentive Grant Date, an additional 10% of the Class P Common Units in each Operating Group Entity in the aggregate may be exchanged (so that up to a cumulative percentage of the Class P Common Units in each Operating Group Entity equal to 70%, 80%, 90% and 100%, respectively, in the aggregate, may be exchanged on and after such anniversary), in each case as provided in, and in accordance with and subject to the terms of, the Class P Exchange Agreement.
(c)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Exchange Agreements to the contrary, unless and until shareholders of the Company approve an amendment to the Plan to reserve a sufficient number of Class A Shares under the Plan, the Limited Partner and his Related Trusts shall not be permitted to exchange (i) any Class A Common Units into which the Incentive D Units have converted pursuant to the Class A Exchange Agreement or (ii) any Incentive P Units pursuant to the Class P Exchange Agreement.  The Company agrees to promptly take all actions necessary to pursue shareholder approval of such an amendment. 
11.    Acknowledgment.  The Limited Partner acknowledges that he has been given the opportunity to ask questions of the Partnership and has consulted with counsel concerning this Agreement to the extent the Limited Partner deems necessary in order to be fully informed with respect thereto.  
12.    Section 409A.  This Agreement as well as payments and benefits under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from, or to the extent subject thereto, to comply with Code Section 409A ("Section 409A"), and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance therewith.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Limited Partner shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Partnership for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A until the Limited Partner has incurred a "separation from service" from the Partnership within the meaning of Section 409A.  Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A and any payments described in this Agreement that are due within the "short 


17


    



term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise.  Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following the Limited Partner's separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Limited Partner's separation from service (or, if earlier, the Limited Partner's date of death).  To the extent required to avoid an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, amounts reimbursable to the Limited Partner shall be paid to the Limited Partner on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in kind benefits provided to the Limited Partner) during one year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year, and no reimbursement or in-kind benefit shall be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
13.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.10 of the Limited Partnership Agreement.
(b)    Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement cannot be amended or modified except by a writing signed by both parties hereto.  Daniel S. Och (or, following the death, Disability or Withdrawal of Daniel S. Och, the Partner Management Committee (excluding the Limited Partner for purposes of such decisions)) in his (or their) sole discretion may amend the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Incentive Units or the terms of any Existing Partner Agreements, in whole or in part, at any time, if he (or they) determine in his (or their) sole discretion that the adoption of any such amendments are necessary or desirable to comply with applicable law; provided, however, that, if any such amendment would require the approval of the Compensation Committee, then any such determinations or amendments shall be made by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, based on recommendations from Daniel S. Och (or, following the death, Disability or Withdrawal of Daniel S. Och, the Partner Management Committee (excluding the Limited Partner for purposes of such decisions)).  The following shall apply in respect of a class of Units for so long as the Limited Partner has not forfeited or exchanged or otherwise disposed of at least 50% of the grant of that Unit class under this Agreement: 
(i)    no amendment to the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Exchange Agreements may materially and adversely affect the economic terms of the Limited Partner's Incentive D Units or Incentive P Units in a manner that is disproportionate to the effect on the economic terms of other units of such class without his prior written consent (subject to Section 10.2(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement).   In addition, any issuances of a majority of interests of a class of Units for the purpose of evading the provisions in Section 10.2 of the Limited Partnership Agreement that relate to voting by Unit holders shall be disregarded for the purposes of obtaining a consent to amendment pursuant to such section. The Company will not offer to exchange or issue new Units or 


18


    



economic enhancements to holders of Incentive D Units or Incentive P Units in exchange for their agreement to vote in favor of an amendment that adversely affects the economic terms of the Limited Partner's Incentive D Units or Incentive P Units unless the Limited Partner is offered the same rights to exchange or new Units or economic enhancements as is offered to other holders of such Units.
(ii)    No amendment to the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Exchange Agreements may materially and adversely affect the economic terms of the Limited Partner's Incentive D Units or Incentive P Units without his prior written consent (subject to Sections 10.2(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement), unless such amendment affects the economic terms of the Class A Common Units in a similar manner and except that any amendment to the economic terms of the Class D Common Units or the Class P Common Units that relates to terms or structural provisions that are not applicable to the Class A Common Units shall not be restricted by or subject to this provision. 
(c)    This Agreement and any amendment hereto made in accordance with Section 13(b) shall be binding as to executors, administrators, estates, heirs and legal successors, or nominees or representatives, of the Limited Partner, and may be executed in several counterparts with the same effect as if the parties executing the several counterparts had all executed one counterpart.
(d)    If any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable as written, it shall be construed, to the greatest extent possible, in a manner which shall render it valid and enforceable, and any limitations on the scope or duration of any such provision necessary to make it valid and enforceable shall be deemed to be part thereof, and no invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall affect any other portion of this Agreement unless the provision deemed to be so invalid or unenforceable is a material element of this Agreement, taken as a whole.
(e)    The failure by any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement, or to require at any time performance by any party hereto of any provision hereof, shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof, or the right of any party hereto thereafter to enforce each and every such provision in accordance with its terms.
(f)    This Agreement amends the Limited Partnership Agreement to the extent specifically provided herein.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, in the event of any conflict with respect to the rights and obligations of the Limited Partner between (i) the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement and (ii) the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.  Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement shall not otherwise affect any of the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Existing Partner Agreements.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the non-competition, non-solicitation and other restrictive covenants and other obligations that apply to the Limited Partner under the Limited Partnership Agreement and the Existing Partner Agreements as currently in effect shall remain unchanged as a result of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect after the date hereof.


19


    



(g)    The Limited Partner acknowledges and agrees that an attempted or threatened breach by the Limited Partner of the provisions of this Agreement would cause irreparable injury to the Partnership and the other members of the Och-Ziff Group not compensable in money damages and the Partnership shall be entitled, without limitation of Section 13(i), to obtain a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction prohibiting any breaches of the provisions of this Agreement without being required to prove damages or furnish any bond or other security. 
(h)    Solely with respect to any action or determination that may result in the forfeiture of the Incentive Units:
(i)    if there is a dispute between the Limited Partner and the Partnership with respect to (A) whether a Cause Condition has occurred (other than pursuant to clause (vii) thereof), or (B) whether an offer as to a Comparable Position has been made, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to a determination made by judicial review on a "de novo" basis, without regard to any determination made by the Partnership or any person or entity entitled to make determinations hereunder; and
(ii)    if there is a dispute between the Limited Partner and the Partnership with respect to whether a Cause Condition has occurred pursuant to clause (vii) thereof, or whether there has been a breach of the restrictive covenants in Section 2.13(b)(ii) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to a determination made by a three-quarters vote of all of the independent members of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Limited Partner and the Limited Partner has been given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the independent members of the Board).
Nothing in this Section 13(h) shall limit or otherwise affect or reduce the Partnership's or the Limited Partner's rights to seek injunctive relief, damages or any other remedies in respect of any event described in this Section 13(h) or any underlying or related act or event.
(i)    Any remedies provided for in this Agreement shall be cumulative in nature and shall be in addition to any other remedies whatsoever (whether by operation of law, equity, contract or otherwise) which any party may otherwise have.
(j)    To the extent in the future additional or different taxes or rates are applied to amounts due or income allocated under this Agreement or the Limited Partnership Agreement, the after tax calculation herein shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the after tax intention to the extent applicable.
(k)    In the event of the Limited Partner's Special Withdrawal or Withdrawal for any reason, the Limited Partner will promptly return to the Operating Group Entities all known equipment, data, material, books, records, documents (whether stored electronically or on computer hard drives or disks or on any other media), computer disks, credit cards, keys, I.D. cards, and other property, including, without limitation, standalone computers, fax machines, printers, telephones, and other electronic devices in the Limited Partner's possession, custody, or 


20


    



control that are or were owned and/or leased by members of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group in connection with the conduct of the business of the Operating Group Entities and their Affiliates, and including in each case any and all information stored or included on or in the foregoing or otherwise in the Limited Partner's possession or control that relates to Investors or OZ counterparties, Investor or OZ counterparty contact information, Investor or OZ counterparty lists or other Confidential Information. 
(l)    Any breach of the ten-year commitment set forth in the recitals hereto shall not entitle either party to any additional rights, entitlements or obligations in respect of such breach or result in any such damages other than as described in this Agreement, the Existing Partner Agreements and the Limited Partnership Agreement.
