Re: Separation and Transition Agreement and General Releases

Dear Xx. Xxxxxxxxxx:

This letter agreement (this "Letter Agreement"), effective as of July 11, 2014 (the "Effective Date"), confirms the arrangements relating to your provision of transitional services to, and your Withdrawal from, OZ Advisors LP, OZ Advisors II LP, and OZ Management LP (each, an "Operating Partnership"), resulting from your decision to resign and cease to be actively involved with the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates. You have agreed that your Withdrawal from each of the Operating Partnerships shall be effective as of June 30, 2015 (the "Separation Date"). Capitalized terms used herein, but not defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the limited partnership agreements of the Operating Partnerships (as amended, supplemented, or modified from time to time, the "Operating Partnership Agreements"). You, Och-Ziff Holding Corporation ("OZ Holding Corp"), as the general partner of each of OZ Advisors LP and OZ Management LP, and Och-Ziff Holding LLC ("OZ Holding LLC" and, together with OZ Holding Corp, the "General Partners"), as the general partner of OZ Advisors II LP, voluntarily agree to the following:

1.Transition Services.

a.During the period from and after the Effective Date through and including the Separation Date (the "Transition Period"), you shall serve as Senior Legal Advisor to the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, and in your capacity as such, you shall (i) assist as requested with the transitioning of your duties to your successor as Chief Legal Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary (the "Successor CLO"), (ii) be available upon request to attend calls with, and respond to inquiries from, investors in any investment fund of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group (as defined in Paragraph 5(b) below), and (iii) cooperate with the Operating Partnerships in accordance with Paragraph 12 below (the foregoing services, the "Services"). The Och-Ziff Capital Management Group shall provide you with the appropriate equipment, facilities and information it determines to be necessary in order for you to be able to provide the requested Services, which you shall generally provide remotely, except that you shall provide the Services from the New York office of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group from time to time upon the reasonable request of the General Partners. You shall also be reimbursed for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of the Services in accordance with the generally applicable expense policy of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group.

b. You (i) shall have no right to access or use the property of the Operating Partnerships or their Affiliates except as set forth in Paragraph 1(a) above or in Paragraph 7 below, and (ii) shall not provide services to, or on behalf of (or hold yourself out as providing services to, or on behalf of), the



	1

Operating Partnerships or their Affiliates other than the Services. You hereby resign, as of the Effective Date, from your positions as (A) Chief Legal Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC, (B) an officer of the General Partners and each of their Affiliates for which you served as an officer, and (C) a member of all committees of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group of which you are a member.

c. In your capacity as Senior Legal Advisor, you shall continue to be a member of the legal department of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, and, in such capacity, shall be afforded the benefit of the same coverage as to claims of alleged legal malpractice that could arise out of the performance of your duties during the Transition Period as were made available to you immediately prior to the Effective Date.

2.Transition and Withdrawal Arrangements. The arrangements to take effect during the Transition Period and thereafter as a result of your Withdrawal shall be as follows:

a. While you and your Related Trusts continue to hold any Common Units, you and your Related Trusts shall remain subject to the applicable obligations under, and continue to have entitlements to payments or other rights pursuant to, the Exchange Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Class B Shareholders Agreement and the Tax Receivable Agreement (collectively, the "Continuing Agreements"), in accordance with their terms, except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including, without limitation, Paragraph 9 below).

b. After the Effective Date, you and your Related Trusts shall continue to have the rights and obligations that are described in the Operating Partnership Agreements with respect to Limited Partners or former Limited Partners following their Withdrawal, except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including, without limitation, as set forth in Paragraph 3(a) below). In particular, and without limitation of the provisions of the Operating Partnership Agreements, following the Effective Date, you shall remain subject to the restrictions regarding Confidentiality, Intellectual Property, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement, Non-Interference, Short Selling, Hedging Transactions, and Compliance with Policies, set forth in Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.18, and 2.19, of each of the Operating Partnership Agreements (as modified by this Letter Agreement), in addition to all other restrictions or obligations (subject to Paragraph 2(c) below) applicable to a Limited Partner or former Limited Partner following a Withdrawal, in addition to the restrictions and obligations under your confidentiality agreement with OZ Management LP dated April 11, 2005. You acknowledge that you have not breached, and agree that you will continue to abide by, all such applicable restrictions and obligations.

c. You shall continue to be entitled to be indemnified as set forth in your Partner Agreement with OZ Management LP dated as of September 30, 2009 (the “2009 Partner Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, such indemnification shall apply to your activities as Senior Legal Advisor. The Och-Ziff Capital Management Group agrees not to enter into any agreement or arrangement with any third party that would impair your contractual rights under this Paragraph 2(c) or your rights under Sections 2.9 or 2.10 of the Operating Partnership Agreements.

3.Consideration. You shall be entitled to continue to receive the compensation previously established in respect of your 2014 services and a reduced retention payment for your continuing service as a Senior Legal Advisor in 2015, in each case set forth below. Subject to (i) your continuing provision of the Services in a satisfactory manner, as determined by the General Partners and the Chairman of the Partner Management Committee, acting reasonably, (ii) your continuing compliance



	2

with this Letter Agreement and the Operating Partnership Agreements (as modified hereby), (iii) your signing this Letter Agreement and the General Release attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "First Release") as of the Effective Date and not revoking the First Release for 28 days, and (iv) your signing the General Release attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Second Release" and, together with the First Release, the "General Releases") as of the Separation Date and not revoking the Second Release for 28 days:

a. All of your and your Related Trusts' unvested Common Units in each of the Operating Partnerships (including all allocations and distributions with respect thereto that would otherwise be received after the Effective Date) shall continue to vest with respect to you and your Related Trusts after the Effective Date until fully vested. In the event a material breach of the conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Paragraph 3 occurs as of any date, all of your and your Related Trusts' unvested Common Units as of such time shall be forfeited at such time, and neither you nor any of your Related Trusts shall have any further rights, claims, or any interests whatsoever in such forfeited unvested Common Units.

b. You shall continue to be eligible to receive the Guaranteed Payment and Award Class D Common Units (as such terms are defined in your Partner Agreements with each Operating Partnership dated as of February 27, 2012 (the "2012 Partner Agreements")) for fiscal year 2014 in accordance with the terms of the 2012 Partner Agreements. In the event a material breach of the conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Paragraph 3 occurs as of any date, your entitlement to any payments or grants, as the case may be, of such Guaranteed Payment and Award Class D Common Units occurring on or after such date shall be forfeited, and you shall not have any further rights, claims, or any interests whatsoever in such forfeited Guaranteed Payment and forfeited Award Class D Common Units.

c. You shall continue to be eligible to receive the contingent amounts relating to your 2014 retention bonus (the “2014 Retention Bonus”) that have not yet been paid or granted, consisting of two cash installments of $875,000 and two awards of $375,000 in Class D Common Units, with one cash installment and one award to be granted to you on each of August 15, 2014 and December 31, 2014; provided that, in the event a material breach of the conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Paragraph 3 occurs as of any date, your entitlement to receive any such contingent amounts that are scheduled to be made on or after such date shall be forfeited, and you shall not have any further rights, claims, or any interests whatsoever in such forfeited amounts.

d. You shall receive a reduced retention payment consisting of two cash installments of $350,000 and two awards of $150,000 in Class D Common Units, with one cash installment and one award to be granted to you on each of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, in the same manner and subject to the same vesting as the 2014 Retention Bonus; provided that, in the event a material breach of the conditions set forth in the first paragraph of this Paragraph 3 occurs as of any date, your entitlement to receive any such contingent amounts that are scheduled to be made on or after such date shall be forfeited, and you shall not have any further rights, claims, or any interests whatsoever in such forfeited amounts.

e. For purposes of the non-competition covenant in Section 2.13(b)(i) of each of the Operating Partnership Agreements (as modified by your Partner Agreements with the Operating Partnerships dated as of September 30, 2009), the Restricted Period shall conclude on the last day of the Transition Period. With respect to you, (i) references to the twelve-month period prior to the



	3

relevant Individual Limited Partner's Withdrawal in the definition of "Competing Business" in the Operating Partnership Agreements shall instead refer to the twelve-month period prior to the Effective Date and (ii) references in Section 2.13(d) of each of the Operating Partnership Agreements to the date of Withdrawal of a Partner shall instead refer to the Effective Date.

f. Promptly following receipt of an invoice therefor, a member of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group shall pay and/or reimburse you for the fees of the attorney that assisted and counseled you with respect to the discussions of your withdrawal and the transition effected hereby, up to an aggregate amount of $50,000.

g. By signing this Letter Agreement and each General Release, you acknowledge and agree that you and your Related Trusts have received or, upon the receipt of all of the payments and benefits described in this Letter Agreement, will have received all amounts due from the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates relating to your service to, and affiliation with, the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates, and that no other amounts are due other than as expressly described in this Letter Agreement.

h. Other than as expressly set forth in this Paragraph 3 and, in respect of your and your Related Trusts' vested Common Units, and as set forth in the Operating Partnership Agreements or the Continuing Agreements (each as modified herein), (i) none of the Operating Partnerships or any other member of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group shall have any obligation to make payments to, grant equity to, or otherwise compensate you or your Related Trusts; and (ii) neither you nor any of your Related Trusts shall have any claim or other interest with respect to any such payments, equity, or other compensation.

4.Benefits. The Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, as defined in Paragraph 5(b) below, will pay, in full, the payment premiums for the medical and dental coverage of you and your eligible family members until June 30, 2015. You will receive a notice and applicable documentation regarding the terms of continuation of coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986, as amended ("COBRA"), and your right to elect COBRA coverage under separate cover, and the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group's obligation to pay your premiums shall be conditional on you electing such coverage. Except as explicitly set forth herein, your life and disability coverage and any other benefits provided by the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group shall cease following the Effective Date.

5.Release.

a. In order to receive the consideration set forth in Paragraphs 3 and 4 above, you agree to sign this Letter Agreement and each of the General Releases as specified in this Letter Agreement. Failure to sign (and not revoke) the Second Release in no way affects your prior release of claims under the First Release. By your execution of each General Release, such General Release shall be deemed to cover any claims that you have, may have had, or thereafter may have existing or occurring at any time on or before the date on which you execute such General Release.

b.For the purposes of this Letter Agreement and each General Release, the "Och-Ziff Capital Management Group" consists of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC, and its subsidiaries (including the Operating Partnerships and the General Partners), each of their respective current, past, and future Affiliates, any investment funds and accounts managed by any of the foregoing, and any of



	4

their investors, employees, members, partners, directors, officers, agents, representatives, successors, and assigns.

c.The parties hereto agree that the lack of a mutual release on behalf of the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group shall at no time be interpreted as a limitation, in any manner whatsoever, of the provisions of Sections 2.9 and/or 2.10 of the Operating Partnership Agreement (or the indemnifications set forth in the 2009 Partner Agreement). The Och-Ziff Capital Management Group hereby covenants that, if at any time, you should avail yourself of the protections set forth in either Section 2.9 or 2.10 of the Operating Partnership Agreements, it will not interfere with your ability, or deny any right that you have, to avail yourself of any such protections with respect to the relevant circumstances.

6.Confidentiality.

a. Confidentiality of this Letter Agreement. Except as expressly permitted in Paragraph 11 below or as otherwise expressly agreed in writing with the General Partners, you will maintain the confidentiality of and not disclose the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement or the General Releases, or the circumstances of your Withdrawal from the Operating Partnerships, to any third parties, other than your attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, or immediate family members (collectively, your “Family Members and Advisors”), and you will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same. To the extent you elect to disclose any of the terms of this Agreement to any of your Family Members and/or Advisors, you shall ensure that each such Family Member or Advisor will be advised of and agree to abide by the terms of your confidentiality obligations hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall be permitted to refer to your prior employment with the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group in a biographical manner and to respond to any allegations or accusations of misconduct by you made in any civil litigation or in any widely disseminated media account, but expressly excluding social networking and similar media (a” Public Allegation”)), provided that, in the case of any Public Allegation, the content of your response shall be subject to the approval of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

c. Non-Disparagement. Without limiting the provisions of the Operating Partnership Agreements or Paragraph 2(b) above, and except as expressly permitted in Paragraph 11 below, following the execution of this Agreement, (i) you agree that you will not make, or cause to be made,

You agree that, after the Effective Date, you will not retain any Firm Property other than Retained Firm Property. You agree that you shall return to the Operating Partnerships all Retained Firm Property on or before the Separation Date. You represent and warrant that you have not delivered, and will not deliver, copies of Firm Property to any person or entity, and have not permitted, and will not permit, any copies of Firm Property to be made by any other person or entity.

EXHIBIT A:

GENERAL RELEASE

I, Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, in consideration of and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the letter agreement dated July 3, 2014, to which this General Release is attached (the "Letter Agreement"), and for other good and valuable consideration, do hereby release and forever discharge the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group (as defined in the Letter Agreement), from any and all legally waivable actions, causes of action, covenants, contracts, claims, or any right to any monetary recovery, or any other personal relief whatsoever, which I or any of my Related Trusts, my or their heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, or any of them, ever had, now have, or hereafter can, shall, or may have, by reason of my service to, or affiliation with, the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates, and my Withdrawal from the Operating Partnerships.

By signing this General Release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, I waive, release, and forever discharge the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group from any and all legally waivable claims, grievances, injuries, controversies, agreements, covenants, promises, debts, accounts, actions, causes of action, suits, arbitrations, sums of money, wages, attorneys' fees, costs, damages, or any right to any monetary recovery, or any other personal relief, whether known or unknown, in law or in equity, by contract, tort, law of trust, or pursuant to U.S. federal, state, local, or non-U.S. statute, regulation, ordinance, or common law, which I or any of my Related Trusts ever have had, now have, or may hereafter have, based upon, or arising from, any fact or set of facts, whether known or unknown to me, from the beginning of time until the date of execution of this General Release, arising out of, or relating in any way to, my service to, or affiliation with, the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates or other associations with the Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, or any cessation thereof. I acknowledge and agree that I am not an employee of any of the Operating Partnerships or any of their Affiliates. Nevertheless, and without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any administrative agency, court, or arbitrator might find that I am an employee, I acknowledge and agree that this General Release constitutes a waiver, release, and discharge of any claim or right based upon, or arising under any U.S. federal, state, local, or non-U.S. fair employment practices and equal opportunity laws, including, but not limited to, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, the Equal Pay Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") (including, but not limited to, claims for breach of fiduciary duty under ERISA), the Family Medical Leave Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Older Worker's Benefit Protection Act, and the New York State and New York City anti-discrimination laws, including all amendments thereto, and the corresponding fair employment practices and equal opportunities laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions that may be applicable.

I also understand that I am releasing any rights or claims concerning bonus(es) and any award(s) or grant(s) under any incentive compensation plan or program, except as set forth in the Letter Agreement, having any bearing whatsoever on the terms and conditions of my service to the Operating Partnerships and their Affiliates, and the cessation thereof; provided that, this General Release shall not prohibit me from enforcing my rights, if any, under the Letter Agreement, this General Release, the Operating Partnership Agreements, or the Continuing Agreements (as the Operating Partnership Agreements and the Continuing Agreements are modified herein).

A-1

I expressly acknowledge and agree that, by entering into the Letter Agreement and this General Release, I am waiving any and all rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (the "ADEA"), if any, which have arisen on or before the Effective Date. I also expressly acknowledge and agree that:
