Inventory shall be calculated based upon the most recent monthly financial statements or borrowing base certificate provided to Secured Party, subject to Secured Party’s right in its reasonable discretion to require Borrowers to provide a
borrowing base certificate more frequently (and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to demand borrowing base certificates and, other financial information on a daily or other periodic
basis). Borrowers agree to comply timely with all such demands. In the event that any borrowing base certificate or financial statements provided to Secured Party, or that should be provided to Secured Party, reflect a total outstanding balance of
Advances in excess of the amount permitted under this covenant, Borrowers shall be required to make, within one business day, a mandatory prepayment in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess amount. The requirements of this covenant are in
addition to, and not in limitation or amendment of, Borrowers’ other obligations under the Agreement and other documentation with or in favor of Secured Party.

any of the foregoing, in each case unless (i) the Majority Lenders shall have (prior to the incurrence thereof) consented to the same in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (ii) the proceeds of such
indebtedness is used to repay the Lenders and permanently reduce the Total Credit Line in an amount equal to the amount of such indebtedness. For the avoidance of doubt, the above restriction (i) does not apply to CountryPlace Mortgage, Ltd. or
any other party other than Borrowers and (ii) does not restrict Borrowers’ ability to incur liabilities in respect of letters of credit or capitalized leases. In connection with any request by the Borrowers to incur additional indebtedness
otherwise prohibited by this clause (d) and as to which the Borrowers request that the Administrative Agent release or subordinate any portion of the Collateral in favor of another Lender or other party, the Administrative Agent shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay the granting of such request; provided that (i) no default or Event or Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement or any other agreement; (ii) no default or Event of Default would arise under
this Agreement or any other agreement as a result of such incurrence of additional indebtedness; and (iii) the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that, after giving effect to such request, the value of the Collateral as to
which the Administrative

 
Agent possesses a first priority security interest would be satisfactory to fully support and secure (Including with an adequate collateral cushion as the Administrative Agent may determine) the
amount of the Total Credit Line and all of the Borrowers’ covenant requirements and other obligations under this Agreement and all other agreements.” 
  

	 	8.	Except as amended hereby, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and is in all respects hereby ratified and affirmed. 

  

	 	9.	If any provision of this Amendment is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall
remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. 

  

	 	10.	This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument, and a facsimile signature shall suffice as an original for all purposes. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed by their duly authorized officer or representative as of the effective date first above written.

 Dear Shaun:

 I write on behalf of BGC Brokers L.P. (the “Employer”) in connection with your contract of employment (including any terms and
conditions attached thereto), dated March 31, 2008 and as further amended thereafter (the “Contract”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein or incorporated by reference shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Contract. 
 In connection with the redemption of certain of your partnership units for cash and PSUs pursuant to the letter agreement between
you and BGC Holdings, L.P., dated March 26, 2010, and other good and valuable consideration herein, the undersigned parties hereby agree to amend the Contract as set forth below, effective as of March 26, 2010. 
 The following subsection shall be added to numbered Section 3 of the Contract: 
  

	(e)	You acknowledge and agree that the type of contingent non-cash award in Section 3(d) above may be in the form of PSUs, and any grant to be awarded to you in 2010
(but which may be in respect of a different calendar year) and thereafter may be in the form of PSUs or such other award type as determined by the Employer. You further acknowledge and agree that the value of a PSU shall be deemed to be the result
of the number of units granted multiplied by the closing price of BGC Partners, Inc. Class A common stock on the date of the final determination of such award, that a PSU has no Post-Termination Amount, and that an award of a PSU satisfies any
obligation the Employer may have with respect to Section 3(d). Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the Employer to procure the grant of any particular type of contingent non-cash grant award or prevents the Employer from procuring
the grant of any other type of contingent non-cash grant award from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, any payment, award, benefit, or loan of money or property (including without limitation distributions in respect of such award and the
application of any distributions) (each an “Award”) pursuant to this Contract or otherwise, and whether provided by the Employer or by any Associated Company or affiliate of the Employer, may be made in such currency, using such currency
exchange rates and on such terms, as shall be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Employer. Where the Employer procures that any such Award is provided to you by an Associated Company or an affiliate, you agree that the Employer
shall be entitled to treat such Award as being in satisfaction of any of its own obligations to you, including but not limited to Section 3(d) herein. 

 The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the undersigned has not relied on any oral or written
statements by any person in connection with any election made by the undersigned. This letter amendment supersedes all other representations and descriptions, oral or written, and all other communications between the parties relating to the subject
matter of this letter amendment. Other than as stated herein, all other terms and conditions of your employment remain as set out in the Contract and any amendments thereto (including but not limited to this amendment). 
 This letter agreement may only be treated as an offer capable of acceptance if executed by Howard Lutnick. It may be executed in multiple counterparts, each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one agreement. Each such counterpart signature may be delivered via telecopier or email. 
 Yours sincerely, 
 Howard W. Lutnick 
 For and on behalf of BGC Partners, Inc. and BGC Brokers L.P. 
 I acknowledge and agree to the
terms set out above.
