----------
AGREEMENTS AND COVENANTS
1. The Unitholder and the Company hereby agree to the issuance of
((PHANTOM_UNIT)) shares of Common Stock in consideration for the Units held

Common Stock held by the Company for withholding purposes, if any, upon the

Such conversion will extinguish the Company's duties and responsibilities under

cancellation of all Units held by the Unitholder, and all rights thereunder, in
return for the issuance of the Converted Common Stock by the Company.
3
3. The Unitholder and the Company hereby agree that the number of shares
of Converted Common Stock to be issued to the Unitholder for the surrender and
cancellation of the Units will be based upon a conversion ratio whereby the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued will be determined by dividing the
Book Value per share of the Common Stock into the outstanding cash value of the
Units.
4. The Unitholder and the Company hereby agree that the Company's
calculation of ordinary income tax withholding is based on a conversion value of
$11.15 per share. A higher or lower value per share may be imposed, and if a
higher value is imposed, the Unitholder's ordinary income tax liability would be
increased proportionately. Therefore, the Company reserves the right, and the
Unitholder agrees to such reservation, to deduct from the Unitholder's future
compensation payments to offset any amount due for any additional tax
liabilities or related corporate withholding obligations.

of June 30, 1998 by and between Korn/Ferry International, a California
corporation (the "Company"), and ((NAME)) (the "Unitholder," or for purposes
herein, the "Shareholder"). Pursuant to the Termination and Conversion Agreement

laws of the State of California.
B. The Company has authorized the conversion of the Units held by the
Unitholder under the Company's Phantom Stock Plan for shares of Common Stock.
C. The Unitholder has decided to participate in such conversion,
which will require the execution of certain documents with the Company,
including this Repurchase Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and in consideration
of the mutual promises contained within the Agreement between the same parties,
the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. DEFINITIONS. For all purposes of this Repurchase Agreement, the

Agreement.

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied in accordance
with the usual accounting practices of the Company.

other period specified by the Board of Directors of the Company as the fiscal
year of the Company.

withholding for taxes by a Shareholder, if any, executed by a Shareholder in
favor of the

"Shares" means shares of Common Stock acquired by the Shareholder
under the Agreement to which this Repurchase Agreement is attached.
"Shareholder" means a Unitholder who has acquired shares of Common

will be repurchased by the Company under the terms of this Repurchase Agreement,
the cash value of a Share will be (a) the Book Value of such Share as of the end
of the Fiscal Year immediately preceding such sale or purchase, or (b) such
other value or formula for determining value as may be specified from time to
time after the date hereof in a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of
the Company for purposes of this Repurchase Agreement.
2. COMPLIANCE WITH AGREEMENT. Except as expressly set forth herein, the
-------------------------
Shareholder shall not sell, transfer, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose
of the Shares or any interest therein held by Shareholder (a "Transfer") without
the prior written consent of the Company. Any purported Transfer not in
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Repurchase Agreement shall be
void and of no force and effect. If the Shares are Transferred, in whole or
part, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, by reason
of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Shareholder, or otherwise in violation of the
provisions of this Repurchase Agreement, the recipient of any of the Shares
shall not be registered on the books of the Company, shall not be recognized as
the holder of the Shares by the Company and shall not acquire any voting,
dividend or other rights in respect thereof.
3. INVESTMENT INTENT. The Shareholder hereby represents and warrants
-----------------
to the Company that the Shareholder's acquisition of the Shares has been made
for his or her own account for investment purposes only, and not with a view to
distribution or resale of the Shares. The issuance of the Shares has not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws
of any state. The Shareholder may not sell the Shares unless the sale has been
so registered or unless, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company,
such registration is not required.
4. RESTRICTION ON CERTIFICATES. The Shareholder understands and
---------------------------
agrees that the certificate(s) issued to him or her representing the Shares:
(i) Shall contain the following legend:
"TRANSFER OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY
REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT") AND THIS
CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT EVIDENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR
OF AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT OF THE ACT. THE RIGHT TO
SELL, TRANSFER OR OTHERWISE DISPOSE OF OR PLEDGE THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE IS PROHIBITED BY THE TERMS OF A
Att. A-2
REPURCHASE AGREEMENT. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE COMPANY'S
PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS."
(ii) May contain additional legends as required by state securities
laws.
(iii) Shall contain the following legend, if the Shareholder is not a
U.S. Person, as defined in the Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder:
"THE TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES IS PROHIBITED EXCEPT IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S UNDER THE UNITED STATES
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED."
5. POSSESSION OF CERTIFICATES. The Company shall hold the certificates
--------------------------
evidencing the Shares as custodian to protect its interests hereunder. In
furtherance thereof, the Shareholder shall execute and deliver to the Company an
assignment in blank, in the form of Exhibit A to the Repurchase Agreement, for
the transfer of such certificates. The Company will deliver to the Shareholder
a receipt for such Shares in the form of Exhibit B to the Repurchase Agreement.
6. REPURCHASE OF SHARES BY COMPANY. Upon the termination of the
-------------------------------
Shareholder's employment with the company (for any reason whatsoever, including
voluntary and involuntary termination, retirement, death or disability), the
Shareholder shall sell, and the Company shall purchase, the Shares at a price
per share equal to the Value of a share of Common Stock, subject to any
prohibitions on the purchase of Shares by the Company under applicable law or
any agreement binding on the Company. The Company and the Shareholder agree that
the Company shall purchase the Shares on a date specified by the Company, which
shall not be later than ninety (90) days after termination of the Shareholder's
employment with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is
prohibited from purchasing the Shares by applicable law or by any contract or
agreement binding on the Company, including without limitation any loan
agreement, the Company will purchase the Shares as soon as practicable after it
determines in good faith that it is legally and contractually permitted to do
so. If there is a Promissory Note outstanding at the time of the Company's
purchase under this section, the Company will, and the Shareholder hereby
authorizes the Company to, offset against any amounts owing to the Shareholder
by the Company with respect to Shares purchased hereunder any amounts
outstanding for principal or accrued interest under the outstanding Promissory
Note. Any amount so offset shall be deducted from the purchase price to be paid
under this section upon the purchase of the Shares by the Company. The balance
of the purchase price for the Shares, if any, shall be paid by the Company, in
its sole and absolute discretion, either in cash or by delivery of a non-
transferable promissory note in the form of the Note; provided, however, that if
termination of employment is due to the Shareholders' death, the balance of the
purchase price shall be paid in cash. The Note shall bear simple interest at
Bank of America's (or its successor's) reference rate as of the date hereof and
may be for term of up to five years. The Note shall be paid in equal annual
installments of principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest on the total
principal amount. Subject to the preceding sentence, the actual term of the Note
will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company. The
indebtedness evidenced
Att. A-3
by the Note, both principal and interest, shall be subordinated and junior, to
the extent set forth in the next sentence, to all Senior Debt; provided, that
such Senior Debt shall not include any obligation of the Company under the
Equity Plan to repurchase shares of Common Stock. Upon the maturity of any of
the Senior Debt by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all principal of,
and interest on, all such matured Senior Debt shall first be paid in full before
any payment is made by the Company on account of principal of, or interest on,
the Note.
7. ASSIGNMENT OF PURCHASE RIGHTS. The Company may assign, in whole or
-----------------------------
part, its right to purchase the Shares under this Repurchase Agreement to a
designee(s).
8. CHANGE IN MARITAL STATUS. In the event that the Shareholder's
------------------------
marital status is altered by dissolution or divorce or by the death of the
Shareholder's spouse, any interest of his or her former spouse in the Shares,
whether as community property or as a result of a property settlement agreement,
a divorce decree or other legal proceeding, may be purchased by the Company and
shall be sold by the Shareholder's former spouse or his or her estate according
to the provisions of this Repurchase Agreement. The Shareholder agrees to notify
the Company of any change in marital status, including, without limitation,
marriage, dissolution of marriage, divorce or death of spouse, within ten (10)
business days of said event. The Shareholder agrees to cause any spouse who has
not signed a consent to this Repurchase Agreement in the form of Exhibit D to do
so at the time notice is given to the Company under this Section 9.
9. AMENDMENT. No change, amendment or modification of this Repurchase
---------
Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Company and
the Shareholder.
10. REMEDIES. The parties agree that the Company will be irreparably
--------
damaged in the event the agreements contained herein are not specifically
enforced. If any dispute arises concerning the transfer of any Shares, an
injunction may be issued restraining any such transfer pending the determination
of such controversy. In the event of any controversy, such rights or obligations
shall be enforceable in a court by a decree of specific performance. Such remedy
shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any
other remedy which the Company may have.
11. EXPENSES. The Shareholder agrees to pay to the Company the amount
--------
of any and all reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, which the Company may incur in connection with the
enforcement of its rights hereunder.

be personally delivered, or shall be sent by telecopier. Any communication so
addressed and mailed shall be deemed to be given seven days after mailing and

restructuring or recapitalization, including without limitation, the acquisition
by the Company of an entity or entities controlled by the Company in connection
with the reincorporation of the Company in a state other than California.
