     5.5. Restricted Share Units.



          (a) If an Eligible Individual who is a member of Pzena Investment Management, LLC elects

Restricted Share Units shall be issued under and in accordance with the terms of the Equity
Incentive Plan and Section 5.6 below and subject to any restrictions thereof. In addition, the

to receive all or a portion of his Restricted Amount in Restricted Share Units, reject such
election in its sole discretion, in which event the portion of such Restricted Amount that is

with Section 6.1.



          (b) An Eligible Individual who is a member of Pzena Investment Management, LLC shall
receive, effective as of the last day of the Fiscal Year to which a Restricted Amount relates,
the number of Restricted Share Units whose Market Value, determined as of the last business day
of the Fiscal Year to which the Restricted Amount relates, equals the portion of the Restricted
Amount to be provided in the form of Restricted Share Units pursuant to Sections 5.3 and
5.5(a); provided, however, that fractional Restricted Share Units shall not be issued and any
excess amount shall be credited to an Account in the name of the Eligible Individual in
accordance with Section 6.1. Such Restricted Share Units shall be subject to a Restriction
Period that reflects the vesting provisions set forth in Section 5.6.



          (c) In addition, in the sole discretion of the Committee, a Participant may be entitled to be
credited with Distribution Equivalents with respect to Restricted Share Units, calculated as
follows: on each date that a cash distribution is paid by the Company while the Restricted Share
Units are outstanding, a Participant’s Account shall be credited with an amount of cash equal to
the aggregate dollar amount of the cash distribution that would have been paid on the Restricted
Share Units had the Restricted Share Units been issued as Units. The Account credited under this
Section shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Restricted Share Units
originally awarded hereunder, including, without limitation, provisions related to vesting and
payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the Account credit described herein, a Participant may,
in the sole discretion of the Committee and to the extent the Committee credits such Participant with Distribution
Equivalents, be credited with an additional number of Restricted Share Units equal to the number of whole Units
(valued at Fair Market Value (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) on such date) that could be purchased on such
date with the aggregate dollar amount of the cash distribution that would have been paid on the Restricted Share
Units had the Restricted Share Units been issued as Units. The additional Restricted Share Units credited under
this Section shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Restricted Share Units originally
awarded hereunder, including, without limitation, for purposes of vesting and crediting of additional
Distribution Equivalents.




     5.6. Vesting.



          (a) A Participant shall become vested in his Account, and the Restriction Period
applicable to his Restricted Share Units shall lapse, in accordance with the following
schedule, provided that the Participant continues in Service with the Company or satisfies the
provisions of paragraph (c) through to the applicable Vesting Date:



5

          (b) A Participant shall also become fully vested in his Account and the Restriction Period
applicable to his Restricted Share Units shall lapse if he dies while in Service with the
Company, his Service is terminated by the Company without Cause or he voluntarily terminates
his Service with Good Reason.



          (c) A Participant who voluntarily terminates his Service with the Company and who has, as
of the time of such termination, provided Services to the Company for a continuous period of no
less than ten years, shall continue to vest in his Account and in any Restricted Share Units
for which the Restriction Period has not lapsed in accordance with the vesting schedule set
forth in paragraph (a) above provided that he does not, on or before an applicable Vesting
Date:




          (1) directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, owner, partner, investor,
member, adviser, representative, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise,
provide Investment Advisory Services, except in the performance of his duties with the
Company, or engage, or assist others to engage, in whole or in part, in any business in
competition with the business of the Company;




          (2) directly or indirectly (other than in the course of performing his duties to the
Company) (i) solicit the hiring of or hire any employee of the Company or any Person who,
within the prior six months, had been an employee of the Company, assist in, or encourage
such hiring by any Person or encourage any such employee to terminate or alter his
relationship with the Company; (ii) in competition with the Company, solicit, seek, induce,
pursue in any way, or accept a business relationship of any kind with, any Person who is a
Client of the Company, including by way of indirect or sub-advisory arrangements (such
obligation to include the duty of the Participant to decline any such offered business
activity even if unsolicited); (iii) otherwise solicit, encourage or induce any Client to
terminate or reduce its business or relationship with the Company; or (iv) otherwise take
any action or have any communication with any Person the purpose of which is, or the
reasonably likely effect of which could be, to cause any such Client to terminate, alter,
reduce, modify or restrict in any way its relationship or business with the Company; or




6










 






          (3) except as required by law or on the written request or with the written consent of
the Company, disclose any Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, or use it in any
way.



          (d) Except as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c), a Participant who terminates his Service
with the Company for any reason shall forfeit the unvested portions of his Accounts and any
Restricted Share Units for which the Restriction Period has not lapsed. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any termination of a Participant’s employment (1) by reason of the Company’s waiver
of any termination notice period given by a Participant or (2) by the Company after such
Participant has given notice of voluntary termination will, in either case, be deemed a
voluntary termination as of the date of the Participant’s actual termination of employment.




6. Accounts




     6.1. Establishment of Accounts. The Company shall establish and maintain an account
(an “Account”) for each Eligible Individual who is entitled to receive a Restricted Amount in any
Fiscal Year, provided that an Account shall only be established for an Eligible Individual who is a
member of Pzena Investment Management, LLC if he does not receive all of his Restricted Amount for
the Fiscal Year in the form of Restricted Share Units. A separate Account shall be established for
each such Participant for each Fiscal Year. A Participant’s Account shall be credited with an
initial amount equal to the Restricted Amount for such Fiscal Year (or, in the case of a
Participant who is a member of Pzena Investment Management, LLC, that part of the Restricted Amount
that is not received in the form of Restricted Share Units) effective as of the applicable
Allocation Date.



     6.2. Investment of Accounts. The Committee may from time to time designate investment
options in which a Participant’s Accounts may be notionally invested (the “Investment Options”),
which may include, without limitation, funds or groups of funds to which the Company acts as
investment adviser or sub-adviser and designated stock or bond indices. Upon or prior to the
establishment of an Account and in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, a
Participant shall specify how such Account is to be notionally invested among the Investment
Options. At such intervals and in accordance with such procedures as the Committee may prescribe,
a Participant may reallocate the notional investment of his Accounts among the available Investment
Options. Nothing in this Plan, however, will require the Company to invest any amounts in such
Investment Options or otherwise.



     6.3. Allocation of Income and Losses. As of the last day of each month or such other
dates as the Committee shall determine (each, a “Valuation Date”), income, gains and losses shall
be credited or debited, as appropriate, to a Participant’s Account as if the Account balance had
been invested in the Investment Options in which it is notionally invested.



     6.4. Payments from Accounts and Settlement of Restricted Share Units.



          (a) Within 30 days following each Vesting Date, that portion of the Participant’s Account
(including the portion of such Account attributable to a Distribution Equivalent) that vested on that Vesting Date shall be paid to the Participant in a single lump sum in cash.
Such payments shall be apportioned pari passu among the



7









 






Investment Options of the Account. Within 30 days following each Vesting Date, that
portion of the Participant’s Restricted Share Units that vested on that Vesting Date shall be
paid to the Participant in the form of Units; provided, however, that fractional Units shall
not be issued and any excess amount shall be paid to the Participant in a single lump sum in
cash.




          (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Participant dies while in
Service with the Company or while continuing to vest in his Account after his termination of
Service in accordance with Section 5.6(c), if a Participant’s Service is terminated by the
Company without Cause, or if a Participant voluntarily terminates his Service with Good Reason,
all unpaid amounts in his Accounts shall be paid to the Participant, or to the Participant’s
estate, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 60 days of the Participant’s date of death
or Separation from Service, as applicable.




7. Administration




     7.1. Power and Authority of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the
Committee, which shall have the full discretionary power and authority to:



          (a) select Eligible Individuals from the Company’s employees and members;




          (b) determine the amount of any Bonus Award;




          (c) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and procedures relating to the Plan;




          (d) determine all questions arising in connection with the administration, interpretation
and application of the Plan;




          (e) correct defects, supply information, or reconcile inconsistencies in any manner and to
whatever extent is deemed necessary or advisable to carry out the purposes of this Plan;




          (f) select the Investment Options available under the Plan;




          (g) determine the amount of income, gains and losses to be credited to Accounts;




          (h) compute and certify the amount and the kind of benefits to which any Participant may
be entitled;




          (i) adjudicate, in good faith, all claims by Participants or any other persons for
benefits under the Plan;




          (j) authorize and direct payments to Participants from their Accounts;




          (k) maintain all necessary records for the administration of the Plan;




8









 








          (l) assist any Participant regarding his rights, benefits, or elections available under
the Plan;




          (m) employ such legal counsel, auditors and consultants as it deems desirable for the
administration of the Plan and rely upon any opinion or computation received therefrom;




          (n) designate persons other than members of the Committee to carry out its
responsibilities; and




          (o) make all other determinations and take all other actions as may be necessary,
appropriate or advisable for the administration of the Plan.




     7.2. Determinations of Committee Final and Binding. All determinations and
interpretations by the Committee in carrying out and administering the Plan shall be made in the
Committee’s sole discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes and upon
all persons.



     7.3. Indemnification of Committee. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
each individual person who serves as a member of the Committee to the fullest extent permitted by
law for all acts done in good faith and without gross negligence including defense of all
litigation, including legal fees. The Company may purchase insurance to further protect each
member of the Committee.



8. Amendment and Termination




     Pzena Investment Management, LLC may amend, suspend or terminate this Plan at any time in
writing, and each such amendment, suspension or termination shall be binding upon its subsidiaries,
all Participants and all other persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or termination
of this Plan shall adversely affect any then existing deferred amounts in any Account or any rights
with respect to such amounts under this Plan; provided, however, that, upon termination of the
Plan, the Company may accelerate the time of payment of all or any part of the Accounts in
accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the guidance thereunder.



9. Unfunded Status of Accounts




     The Accounts established under this Plan shall be unfunded. The right of any Participant to
receive future payments from any Account shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of
the Company, and no Participant or any other person shall have any interest in any specific asset
or assets of the Company by reason of any Account hereunder, nor any rights to receive distribution
of any of the Accounts except as and to the extent expressly provided hereunder. With respect to
the payment of amounts held under the Accounts, the Participants have the status of unsecured
general creditors of the Company. The Company shall not be required to purchase, hold or dispose
of any investments pursuant to this Plan; however, if in order to cover its obligations hereunder
the Company elects to purchase any investments, the same shall continue for all purposes to be a
part of the general assets and property of the Company, subject to the claims of its general
creditors and shall not be deemed to create a trust,



9









 







and no person other than the Company shall by virtue of the provisions of this Plan have any
interest in such assets other than an interest as a general creditor.



10. Effective Date




     This Plan shall be effective January 1, 2007 and shall apply to Bonus Awards earned in Fiscal
Years beginning on and after January 1, 2007.



11. Miscellaneous




     11.1. Assignability. No right or interest of a Participant under this Plan to any
amounts in a Participant’s Account or to any Bonus Award shall be subject to alienation,
assignment, transfer, pledge or encumbrance of any kind; provided, however, that nothing in this
Section 11.1 shall prevent transfer by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.
No loans will be issued by the Plan against a Participant’s Account.



     11.2. No Guarantee of Employment. The Plan shall not be construed to give any
Participant the right to be retained in the employment of the Company or to interfere with the
right of the Company to terminate the employment of any person at any time.



     11.3. Taxation of Accounts and Compliance with Code Section 409A.



          (a) This Plan is established with the intention that no portion of a Participant’s
Accounts will be treated as income to the Participant under the Code until the Participant
actually receives the deferred amounts. To the extent applicable:





          (1) at all times, this Plan shall be operated in accordance with the requirements of
Section 409A;




          (2) any action that may be taken (and, to the extent possible, any action actually
taken) by the Company or a Participant shall not be taken (or shall be void and without
effect) if such action is not in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A;




          (3) any provision in this Plan that is determined to violate the requirements of
Section 409A shall be void and without effect; and




          (4) any provision that is required by Section 409A to appear in this Plan in order to
comply with the requirements of Section 409A that is not expressly set forth shall be deemed
to be set forth herein, and this Plan shall be administered in all respects as if such
provision were expressly set forth.



          (b) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, upon a determination under the
Plan as to the imposition of Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax (the “FICA Amount”) under
Sections 3101, 3121(a) or 3121(v)(2) of the Code with respect to all or any portion of an
Account in the name of any Participant, the Committee may in its discretion pay to the
participant an amount not in excess of the FICA Amount and the income



10









 






tax withholding pursuant to Section 3401 of the Code and applicable state, local or
foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of the FICA Amount.




          (c) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, upon a determination under the
Plan that any deferral arrangement with respect to any Account in the name of a Participant
fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A and applicable guidance thereunder, the
Committee may in its discretion pay to the Participant an amount not in excess of that portion
of the Participant’s Account that is required to be included in the income of the Participant
as a result of such failure.




     11.4. Withholding. Any payment or other distribution of benefits under the Plan may
be reduced by any amount (including employment taxes) required to be withheld by the Company under
any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or other requirement of any governmental authority. In
addition, the Company has full authority to withhold any taxes (including employment taxes)
applicable to amounts deferred hereunder from other compensation owing to any Participant that is
not being deferred hereunder. If a Participant becomes entitled to a distribution under the Plan,
and if at such time such Participant has outstanding any debt, obligation or other liability
representing an amount owing to the Company, then the Company may offset such amount against the
amount of benefits otherwise distributable to the Participant under this Plan to the extent
permitted by applicable law.
