Partnership to the Limited Partner of a number of Guaranteed Bonus Class D Common Units equal to the Class D Unit Equivalent Amount (as defined below) and (ii) a grant by each of OZAII and OZM of a number of OZAII & OZM Guaranteed Bonus Units equal to the Class D Unit Equivalent Amount, all such grants of Guaranteed Bonus Class D Common Units and OZAII & OZM Guaranteed Bonus Units to be made on or prior to December 31 of each such fiscal year (each such date, a "Guaranteed Bonus Grant Date") in accordance with Section 4.

3. Performance-Based Grants of Class D Common Units for 2015 and 2016.

(a) Performance Awards. For fiscal year 2015 and 2016, but prior to the Limited Partner's Special Withdrawal or Withdrawal, the Limited Partner shall be eligible to receive conditional performance-based discretionary awards from the Partnership and the other Operating Partnerships with respect to each such fiscal year (in aggregate amount, the "Performance Award Amount" and, together with a Guaranteed Bonus Unit Amount, a "Bonus Unit Amount"), which shall be provided as a grant of Performance Class D Common Units as described in this Section 3, together with an equal number of Class D Common Units in each of OZAII and OZM (the "OZAII & OZM Performance Units") as described in the OZAII & OZM Partner Agreements; provided, however, that, in order to be eligible for any Performance Award Amount, the Limited Partner shall not have been subject to a Withdrawal or Special Withdrawal as of the last day of the fiscal year to which such Performance Award Amount relates. All decisions relating to any Performance Award Amounts, including, without limitation, whether any Performance Award Amount will be granted to the Limited Partner for any particular fiscal year, and the amount of any such Performance Award Amount, if any, for such fiscal year, shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Och-Ziff (the "Compensation Committee") based on recommendations by Xxxxxx X. Och (or, following the death, Disability or Withdrawal of Xxxxxx X. Och, the Partner Management Committee), such determinations and recommendations to be based on any considerations they determine to be appropriate, including but not limited to, the amount of aggregate distributions by the Operating Partnerships made to the Limited Partner with respect to such fiscal year, and any such determination shall be final, provided that the maximum Performance Award Amount for 2015 shall be $1,500,000 and the maximum Performance Award Amount for 2016 shall be $2,000,000. Any such recommendations or determinations to award a Performance Award Amount in respect of a fiscal year shall not create or imply any obligation to award a Performance Award Amount for any other fiscal year.

(b) Awards of Performance Class D Common Units. Subject to Section 3(a) above, any conditional award of a Performance Award Amount for each applicable year shall be settled by (i) a grant by the Partnership to the Limited Partner of a number of Performance Class D Common Units equal to the Class D Unit Equivalent Amount and (ii) a grant by each of OZAII and OZM of a number of OZAII & OZM Performance Units equal to the Class D Unit Equivalent Amount, all such grants of Performance Class D Common Units and OZAII & OZM Performance Units to be made on or prior to December 31 of each such fiscal year (each such date, a "Performance Grant Date" and, together with any Guaranteed Bonus Grant Date, a "Bonus Grant Date"); provided, however, that in order to receive any Performance Class D Common Units on any Performance Grant Date, the Limited Partner shall not have been subject to a Withdrawal or Special Withdrawal on or before the last day of such fiscal year.

4. Bonus Class D Common Units.

(a) Issuance of Bonus Class D Common Units. Upon each determination to issue Bonus Class D Common Units to the Limited Partner on any Bonus Grant Date in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2 or 3, the General Partner shall designate a new series of Class D Common Units pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.1(f) of the Limited Partnership Agreement and the Partnership shall issue a number of Class D Common Units of such series equal to the Class D Unit Equivalent Amount to the Limited Partner pursuant to and subject to the Plan on such Bonus Grant Date and the General Partner shall cause the Limited Partner to be named as the holder of such Bonus Class D Common Units in the books of the Partnership. Upon such issuance, the portion of the Limited Partner's Capital Account balance attributable to such Bonus Class D Common Units shall be $0 (zero dollars). Upon issuance, any such Bonus Class D Common Units shall be designated as "Original Common Units" of the Limited Partner (for purposes of the Limited Partnership Agreement) by the General Partner and the rights, duties and obligations of the Limited Partner with respect to such Bonus Class D Common Units under the Limited Partnership Agreement shall, except to the extent modified by the terms of this Agreement, be the same as those applicable to his Initial Class D Common Unit thereunder.

(b) Class D Unit Equivalent Amount. For purposes of any Bonus Unit Amount to be awarded under Sections 2 or 3:

(i) the term "Class D Unit Equivalent Amount" shall mean the quotient of the Bonus Unit Amount divided by the Discounted Class D Unit Fair Market Value, rounded to the nearest whole number.

(ii) the term "Class D Unit Fair Market Value" shall mean the average of the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC's Class A Shares for the ten trading day period beginning (and including) December 11 (or the next trading day in the event that December 11 is not a trading day) of the year to which the award relates.

(iii) the term "Discounted Class D Unit Fair Market Value" shall mean the Class D Unit Fair Market Value reduced by ten percent (10%) thereof.

For example, if the Limited Partner's Guaranteed Bonus Unit Amount or Performance Award Amount for a fiscal year is $1,500,000, and the average closing price of Class A Shares for the ten trading day period beginning December 11 of such fiscal year is $25 per share, then the Limited Partner would receive an award of 66,667 Class D Common Units (($1,500,000 / $22.50) = 66,667 Class D Common Units) in respect of such Bonus Unit Amount.

5. Withdrawal, Vesting, Transfer, Exchange and Non-Compete Provisions.

(a) Withdrawal, Vesting, Transfer, Exchange and Non-Compete Provisions.

(i) Initial Class D Common Unit. The following changes shall apply to the provisions of Sections 2.13(g), 8.3(a)(ii) and 8.4(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement with

respect to the Limited Partner and any Related Trusts, and his or their Initial Class D Common Unit: (A) the Initial Class D Common Unit shall be treated as a Class A Common Unit thereunder, (B) the Initial Class D Common Unit shall be conditionally vested upon issuance, subject to the other terms hereof, (C) the consequences of any breach by the Limited Partner of any of the covenants set forth in Section 2.13(b)(i) (as modified hereunder) and Section 2.13(b)(ii) of the Limited Partnership Agreement shall be as set forth in Section 5(b)(ii) below, and (D) if the Initial Class D Common Unit (or any Class A Common Unit acquired in respect thereof) is reallocated under Section 5(b)(ii) below, any such reallocated Common Units shall remain vested.

(ii) Bonus Class D Common Units. The following changes shall apply to the provisions of Sections 2.13(g) and 8.4(b) of the Limited Partnership Agreement with respect to the Limited Partner and any Related Trusts, and his or their Bonus Class D Common Units: (A) the Bonus Class D Common Units shall be treated as Class A Common Units thereunder, (B) thirty-three and one-third percent (33-1/3%) of any Bonus Class D Common Units shall vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the applicable Bonus Grant Date, subject to the other terms hereof, and provided that any Bonus Class D Common Units that have been issued and are unvested as of December 31, 2016 shall become conditionally vested as of such date, (C) the definition of "Withdrawal" shall be deemed amended to exclude clause (B) of Section 8.3(a)(i) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, (D) the consequences of any breach by the Limited Partner of any of the covenants set forth in Section 2.13(b)(i) (as modified hereunder) and Section 2.13(b)(ii) of the Limited Partnership Agreement shall be as set forth in Section 5(b)(ii) below, and (E) if any such Bonus Class D Common Units (or any Class A Common Units acquired in respect thereof) are reallocated, any such reallocated Common Units shall remain subject to the same vesting requirements as they had been before such reallocation.

(b) Non-Competition Provisions.

(i) Non-Competition Covenant. Notwithstanding any provisions hereof or of the Limited Partnership Agreement to the contrary, the Restricted Period with respect to the Limited Partner shall, solely for purposes of Section 2.13(b)(i) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, conclude on the last day of the 12-month period immediately following the date of the Limited Partner's Special Withdrawal or Withdrawal.

(ii) Consequences of Breach. All grants of the Initial Class D Common Unit, Guaranteed Bonus Cash Distributions and Bonus Class D Common Units hereunder shall be conditionally granted subject to the Limited Partner's compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 2.13(b)(i) (as modified hereunder) and Section 2.13(b)(ii) of the Limited Partnership Agreement. Without limitation or contradiction of the foregoing, and in addition to the applicability of Section 2.13(g) of the Limited Partnership Agreement as described in Sections 5(a)(i) and (ii) above, the Limited Partner agrees that it would be impossible to compute the actual damages resulting from a breach of any such covenants, and that the amounts set forth in this Section 5(b)(ii) are reasonable and do not operate as a penalty, but are a genuine pre-estimate of the anticipated loss that the Partnership and other members of the Och-Ziff Group would suffer from the Limited Partner's breach of any such covenants. In the event the Limited Partner breaches any such covenants, then the Limited Partner shall have failed to satisfy the condition

subsequent to the grants of the Initial Class D Common Unit, the Guaranteed Bonus Cash Distributions and Bonus Class D Common Units and the Limited Partner agrees that:

(A) on or after the date of such breach, the Initial Class D Common Unit and any Bonus Class D Common Units (or any Class A Common Units acquired in respect thereof) received by the Limited Partner and all allocations and distributions on such Common Units that would otherwise have been received by the Limited Partner on or after the date of such breach shall thereafter be reallocated from the Limited Partner in accordance with Section 2.13(g) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, provided that any such Class D Common Units shall be treated as Class A Common Units thereunder;

(B) on or after the date of such breach, no allocations shall be made to the Limited Partner's Capital Accounts and no distributions shall be made to the Limited Partner in respect of the Initial Class D Common Unit or any Bonus Class D Common Units (or any Class A Common Units acquired in respect thereof);

(C) on or after the date of such breach, no Transfer (including any exchange pursuant to the Exchange Agreement) of the Initial Class D Common Unit or any Bonus Class D Common Units (or any Class A Common Units acquired in respect thereof) of the Limited Partner shall be permitted under any circumstances notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement;

(E) on the Reallocation Date, the Limited Partner shall immediately:

(x)

pay to the Continuing Partners, in accordance with Section 2.13(g) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, a lump-sum cash amount equal to the sum of: (i) the total after-tax proceeds received by the Limited Partner for any Exchanged Class A Shares that were transferred during the 24-month period prior to the date of such breach; and (ii) any distributions received by the Limited Partner during such 24-month period on Exchanged Class A Shares;

(c) Cross-References. References in the Limited Partnership Agreement to Sections thereof (including Sections 2.13(b), 2.13(g), 8.3(a)(ii) and 8.4(b)) that are modified by this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to such Sections as modified hereby.

6. Distributions. In connection with the Initial Class D Common Unit and any Bonus Class D Common Units, the Limited Partner shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Partnership (i) in respect of the Initial Class D Common Unit with respect to the income earned by the Partnership beginning in the fiscal quarter during which the Admission Date occurred, and (ii) in respect of any Bonus Class D Common Units that are issued, but only if and when such Bonus Class D Common Units have been issued, in each case that are equivalent to those generally distributable to the Partners of the Partnership in respect of their Common Units. The amount of distributions per Common Unit made by each of the Operating Partnerships shall be determined by the General Partner in its discretion based on the services performed for the Operating Partnerships by all of the Individual Limited Partners, as such services are determinative of the performance of each of the Operating Partnerships.

7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any other agreements entered into on the date hereof between the Limited Partner and the Partnership or its Affiliates, contains the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces any prior oral or written agreements between the Limited Partner and the Partnership or its Affiliates.

8. Compensation Clawback. As a highly regulated, global alternative asset management firm, Och-Ziff has had a long-standing commitment to ensure that its partners, officers and employees adhere to the highest professional and personal standards. In the case of fraud, misconduct or malfeasance by any of its partners, officers or employees, including, without limitation any fraud, misconduct or malfeasance that leads to a restatement of Och-Ziff's financial results, or as required by law, the Compensation Committee would consider and likely pursue a disgorgement of prior compensation, where appropriate based on the facts and circumstances. The Compensation Committee will adopt and amend clawback policies, as appropriate, to comply with the final implementing rules regarding compensation clawbacks mandated by the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx

Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and any other applicable law. The Compensation Committee may extend and apply such clawback provisions to similarly situated levels of partners that may not be required to be covered by applicable law as it determines to be necessary or appropriate in its discretion. The Limited Partner hereby consents to comply with all of the terms and conditions of any such compensation clawback policy adopted by the Compensation Committee which may apply to the Limited Partner and other similarly situated partners on or after the date hereof, and also agrees to perform all further acts and execute, acknowledge and deliver any documents and to take any further action requested by Och-Ziff to give effect to the foregoing.
