Attention: Sarah Turner, Corporate Secretary 
 Attention: 

Dear Sir or Madam: 
 The undersigned, a
shareholder of MNA Advisors (as defined below) (the “Shareholder”), proposes to acquire _________ shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Manning & Napier, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to a share exchange whereby MNA Advisors, Inc. (f/k/a Manning & Napier Advisors, Inc.), a New York corporation (“MNA Advisors”), shall exchange the Shares to
the Shareholder in exchange for the Shareholder exchanging _____________ shares of MNA Advisors, which represent beneficial interests in the Class A Units of Manning & Napier Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. 

The Shares are subject to transfer restrictions, and the Shareholder acknowledges that the Shares will continue to be subject to transfer
restrictions when registered in the name of the Shareholder. 
 The Shareholder hereby represents, warrants and agrees that: 

(a) The Shareholder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 
 (b) The Shareholder is purchasing the Shares for his or her own account for
investment purposes only, not for the account of any other person and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares in violation of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act. 

(c) The Shareholder has sufficient knowledge and experience in business, financial and investment matters to be able to evaluate the risks
involved in the purchase of the Shares and to make an informed investment decision with respect to such purchase. 

  
 -1- 

 (d) The Shareholder can afford a complete loss of the value of the Shares and is able to
bear the economic risk of holding the Shares for an indefinite period. 
 (e) The Shareholder understands that the Shares he or she is
acquiring from MNA Advisors are being acquired in a private transaction which is not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws; provided however that the Company will consider the applicability of the existing
Registration Rights Agreement, dated November 23, 2011, to the Shares. 
 (f) The Shareholder understands and agrees that (i) the
Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) the Shares cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is then available, (iii) in any event, the exemption from registration under Rule 144 or otherwise may not be available for at least six
months and even then will not be available unless the terms and conditions of Rule 144 are complied with, and (iv) the Company, in its discretion, may cause stop transfer orders to be placed with its transfer agent with respect to the
certificate representing the Shares. 
 (g) The Shareholder acknowledges that a legend in substantially the following form will be placed on
the certificate representing the Shares: 
 “The securities represented hereby have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission or the securities commission of any state in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, accordingly, may not be transferred unless (i) such
securities have been registered for sale pursuant to the Securities Act, (ii) such securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (iii) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it
that such transfer may lawfully be made without registration under the Securities Act.” 
 (h) The transfer is between MNA Advisors and
the Shareholder only and the Company has not made any representations or warranties to the Shareholder about its current or prospective business or financial condition and is taking place in connection with the Exchange Agreement, dated as of
November 23, 2011, between the Company, M&N Group Holdings, LLC, Manning & Napier Capital Company, LLC and certain holders of units of Manning & Napier Group, LLC. 

(i) The Shareholder did not learn of the investment in the Shares as a result of any general or public solicitation or general advertising, or
publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or
(ii) any seminar or meeting to which the Shareholder was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications. 
 (j) The Shareholder
understands that the Company is relying to a material degree on the accuracy and completeness of the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein in order to register the transfer of the Shares to the Shareholder in a private
transaction.

the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances. 
 SECTION 5.07 Legends. It is understood that, except as provided below,
certificates or book-entry records evidencing the Shares may bear the following or any similar legend:

proper and suitable investment for the Holder, notwithstanding the substantial risks inherent in investing in or holding the Shares.

public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (a) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website, or similar media, or
broadcast over television or radio, or (b) any seminar or meeting to which the Holder was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications. 

SECTION 5.10 Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, any valid
right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or Holder for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of the Holder.
