EXCHANGE OF GROUP PARTNERSHIP UNITS

Section 2.1 Exchange of Group Partnership Units.

(a) Subject to the provisions of the Group Partnership Agreements and the Issuer Partnership Agreement and to the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person shall be entitled on any Quarterly Exchange Date to surrender Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person as follows; provided that any such exchange is for a minimum of the lesser of [1,000] Group Partnership Units or all of the Group Partnership Units held by KKR Holdings.

(i) KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person may surrender Group Partnership Units to the Group Partnerships in exchange for either (at the option of the Group Partnerships) (x) the delivery by the Group Partnerships of a number of Common Units (provided by the Issuer) equal to the number of Group Partnership Units surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate or (y) cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of such exchange of the Common Units that KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person would receive pursuant to clause (x) (any such exchange, a “Base Exchange”). Simultaneous with any such Exchange pursuant to clause (x) above, each Group Partnership shall issue a number of its Group Partnership Units to its respective Group Partnership General Partner equal to the number of Group Partnership Units surrendered to such Group Partnership. Any election by the Group Partnerships to deliver cash to KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person, as the case may be, pursuant to clause (y) above, shall be subject to the prior approval of the conflicts committee of the board of directors of the Issuer General Partner.

(ii) For purposes of making a Charitable Exchange or a Non-U.S. Exchange, a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person may surrender Group Partnership Units to the Issuer in exchange for the delivery of a number of Common Units equal to the number of Group Partnership Units surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate, provided, however, the Issuer may instead require that the Group Partnership I units the KKR Holdings Affiliated Person intends to surrender be owned by one or more Corporate Holdcos prior to surrender, in which case the number of Common Units delivered pursuant to the Exchange will be equal to the total Group Partnership Units that are surrendered, taking into account those collectively owned by the Corporate Holdcos whose interest are surrendered, multiplied by the Exchange Rate.

(b) Immediately following any Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii) above, the Issuer shall contribute (i) any Group Partnership I Units or interests in Corporate Holdcos surrendered pursuant to such Exchange to the Group Partnership Holdco that currently holds interests in the issuer of the Group Partnership I Units that have been surrendered or are held by the Corporate Holdco whose interests have been surrendered, and (ii) any Group Partnership II Units surrendered pursuant to such Exchange to the issuer of the Group Partnership II Units surrendered.

(c) Where KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person has exercised its right to surrender its Group Partnership Units to the Group Partnerships in a Base Exchange, the Group Partnership General Partners shall have a superseding right to acquire such interests for an amount of cash or, at the option of the Group Partnership General Partners, Common

Units equal to the amount of cash or Common Units (provided by the Issuer) that would be received pursuant to the Base Exchange.

(d) On the date the Exchange of the Group Partnership Units is effective, all rights of KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person as holder of such Group Partnership Units shall cease, and KKR Holdings or such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person shall be treated for all purposes as having become the Record Holder (as defined in the Issuer Partnership Agreement) of the Common Units which are the subject of the Exchange and shall be admitted as a Limited Partner (as defined in the Issuer Partnership Agreement) of the Issuer in accordance and upon compliance with Section [ ] of the Issuer Partnership Agreement.

(e) Immediately prior to the time Group Partnership Units are surrendered for Exchange, KKR Holdings shall assign its rights together with its obligations hereunder in connection with an Exchange to each KKR Holdings Affiliated Person beneficially owning such Group Partnership Units.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, any Exchange of Group Partnership Units shall be subject to the provisions of the Group Partnership Agreements.

Section 2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(a) KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person may exercise the right to Exchange Group Partnership Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) above by providing written notice of the Exchange at least sixty (60) days prior to the applicable Quarterly Exchange Date or within such shorter period of time as may be agreed by the parties hereto (i) in the case of a Base Exchange, to each Group Partnership General Partner and the Issuer substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, and (ii) in the case of a Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange, to the Issuer substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. Such notice shall be duly executed by such holder or such holder’s duly authorized attorney in respect of the Group Partnership Units to be Exchanged and delivered during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Group Partnership General Partners and/or the registered office of the Issuer, as applicable.

(b) Each KKR Holdings Affiliated Person beneficially owning the Group Partnership Units that are subject to Exchange pursuant to Section 2.1(a) above shall execute a written assignment and acceptance agreement with respect to such Group Partnership Units prior to such Exchange, which assignment and acceptance agreement shall be delivered during normal business hours at the registered office of KKR Holdings.

(c) As promptly as practicable following the surrender for Exchange of Group Partnership Units in the manner provided in this Article II, the Issuer, in the case of a Base Exchange shall deliver or cause to be delivered at the principal executive offices of the Group Partnership or at the office of the Transfer Agent the number of Common Units issuable upon such Exchange, issued in the name of KKR Holdings or its designee, and in the case of a Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange shall deliver or cause to be delivered at the principal executive offices of KKR Holdings or at the office of the Transfer Agent the number of Common Units issuable upon such Exchange, issued in the name of KKR Holdings or its designee.

(d) The Issuer, in the case of a Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange, or the Group Partnerships, in the case of a Base Exchange, may adopt reasonable procedures for the implementation of the exchange provisions set forth in this Article II, including, without limitation, procedures for the giving of notice of an election for Exchange.

Section 2.3 Blackout Periods and Ownership Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person shall not be entitled to Exchange Group Partnership Units, and the Issuer and the Group Partnerships shall have the right to refuse to honor any request for Exchange of Group Partnership Units, (i) at any time or during any period if the Issuer or the Group Partnerships shall determine, based on the advice of counsel (which may be inside counsel), that there may be material non-public information that may affect the trading price per Common Unit at such time or during such period, (ii) if such Exchange would be prohibited under applicable law or regulation, (iii) to the extent such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person would be prohibited from holding Common Units under the Issuer Partnership Agreement, or (iv) to the extent such Exchange would not be permitted under the policies and procedures established by the general partner of KKR Holdings.

Section 2.4 Splits, Distributions and Reclassifications. The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (1) any subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Group Partnership Units that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Common Units; or (2) any subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Units that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Group Partnership Units. In the event of a reclassification or other similar transaction as a result of which the Common Units are converted into another security, then KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person, as the case may be, shall be entitled to receive upon Exchange the amount of such security that KKR Holdings or such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification or other similar transaction. Except as may be required in the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustments in respect of distributions shall be made upon the Exchange of any Group Partnership Unit.

Section 2.5 Common Units to be Issued. The Issuer covenants that if any Common Units require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any foreign, U.S. federal or state law before such Common Units may be issued upon Exchange pursuant to this Article II, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Common Units to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be. The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to list the Common Units required to be delivered upon Exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the outstanding Common Units may be listed or traded at the time of such delivery. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Issuer or the Group Partnerships from satisfying their obligations in respect of the Exchange of the Group Partnership Units by delivery of Common Units which are held in the treasury of the Issuer or the Group Partnerships or any of their subsidiaries.

Section 2.6 Taxes. The delivery of Common Units upon Exchange of Group Partnership Units shall be made without charge to KKR Holdings or a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance.

Section 2.7 Restrictions. The provisions of Section 7.05 of the Group Partnership Agreements shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any Common Units issued upon Exchange of Group Partnership Units.

Section 2.8 Disposition of Common Units Issued. KKR Holdings covenants to cause any KKR Holdings Affiliated Person receiving Common Units as a result of an Exchange, other than a Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange, under this Agreement (i) to use reasonable best efforts to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Units received in such an Exchange within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof or any specified shorter period as the Issuer General Partner determines to be in the best interests of the Issuer, (ii) to use reasonable best efforts to ensure that neither such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person’s spouse nor any grantor trust which is treated as owned by such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person or his or her spouse owns any Common Units and (iii) to agree that no other Common Units will be acquired or held by such KKR Holdings Affiliated Person during such period other than through a Qualifying Entity. Any KKR Holdings Affiliated Person who receives Common Units as a result of an Exchange under this Agreement and who holds any such Common Units on the last day of the ten (10) day or shorter period referred to above shall agree to cause all such Common Units to be transferred immediately to a Qualifying Entity. For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Qualifying Entity” means a partnership, trust or other entity (other than a “grantor trust” or an entity otherwise disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for United States federal income tax purposes). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall prohibit any KKR Holdings Affiliated Person from owning an interest in a Qualifying Entity that owns Common Units.

Section 2.9 Subsequent Offerings. The Issuer may from time to time provide the opportunity for KKR Holdings to sell its Group Partnership Units to the Issuer, the Group Partnerships or any of their subsidiaries on terms no more beneficial than an Exchange (a “Sale Transaction”); provided that no Sale Transaction shall occur unless the Issuer cancels the nearest Quarterly Exchange Date scheduled to occur in the same fiscal year of the Issuer as such Sale Transaction. In connection with a Sale Transaction, KKR Holdings must provide notice to Issuer at least thirty (30) days prior to the cash settlement of such Sale Transaction in respect of the Group Partnership Units to be sold or within such shorter period of time as may be agreed by the parties hereto. Such notice shall be delivered during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, the total aggregate number of Quarterly Exchange Dates and Sale Transactions occurring during any fiscal year of the Issuer shall not exceed four (4).

Section 3.4 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of all of the parties and, to the extent permitted by this Agreement, their successors, executors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives and assigns. KKR Holdings may enforce the terms of this agreement in the name of or on behalf of any KKR Holdings Affiliated Person. Other than as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement will be construed to give any

person other than the parties to this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement.

Section 3.5 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 3.6 Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto.

Section 3.7 Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach of any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

Section 3.8 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in New York in accordance with the then-existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. If the parties to the dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the International Chamber of Commerce shall make the appointment. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.8(a), in the case of matters relating to a Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange, the Issuer may bring, and in the case of matters relating to a Base Exchange, KKR Holdings may cause any Group Partnership to bring, on behalf of the Issuer or such Group Partnership or on behalf of any KKR Holdings Affiliated Person, an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act (10 Del. C. § 5701 et seq.) (the “Delaware Arbitration Act”). If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent

jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section 3.8, including any rules of the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be invalid or unenforceable under the Delaware Arbitration Act, or other applicable law, such invalidity shall not invalidate all of this Section 3.8. In that case, this Section 3.8 shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Delaware Arbitration Act or other applicable law, and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provision.

Section 3.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies of executed counterparts transmitted by telecopy or other electronic transmission service shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Section 3.9.

The parties shall report any Base Exchange consummated hereunder (pursuant to which Common Units are delivered pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) or Section 2.1(c) hereof), in the case of Group Partnership I (or any other Group Partnership owned directly or indirectly by the Issuer through a Group Partnership Holdco), as a taxable sale of Group Partnership Units by a KKR Holdings Affiliated Person to Group Partnership HoldCo (or the partner of such other Group Partnership owned directly or indirectly by the Issuer through a Group Partnership Holdco) and, in the case of Group Partnership II (or any other Group Partnership owned directly by the Issuer), as a contribution to the Issuer described in Section 721(a) of the Code, and no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority. The parties shall report any Charitable Exchange or Non-U.S. Exchange consummated pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii) hereof as a contribution of (i) Group Partnership I Units or Corporate Holdco interests, and (ii) Group Partnership II Units to the Issuer described in Section 721(a) of the Code, followed by a tax free contribution of such Group Partnership I Units or Corporate Holdco interests to the appropriate Group Partnership Holdco pursuant to Section 351 of the Code, and no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.
