 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 NINTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”),
dated as of May 15, 2009, among FTI CXO Acquisition LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“CXO”), and FTI Consulting Canada LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Canada,” and together with CXO, the
“Guaranteeing Subsidiaries”), each of which are direct or indirect subsidiaries of FTI Consulting, Inc. (or its permitted successor), a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), the Company, the other Guarantors (as
defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”). 
 WITNESSETH 
 WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee
an indenture dated as of August 2, 2005 (as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 16, 2005, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 22, 2006, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of
September 15, 2006, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 7, 2006, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 7, 2006, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 27, 2007, the Seventh
Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 23, 2008 and the Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 24, 2008, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of 3 3/4% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due July 15, 2012 (the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental
indenture pursuant to which each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Note Guarantee”);
and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, each Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 
 1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 2. AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee and in the Indenture including but
not limited to Article 10 thereof. 
 3. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator,
stockholder or agent of any Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any other Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Note Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for
any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the
Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.
