TAX SHARING AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 17th day of March, 1999, by and
among XXXXXXXXX GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation ("JEFG"), JEF HOLDING
COMPANY, INC., a Delaware corporation ("HOLDING"), and INVESTMENT TECHNOLOGY
GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation ("ITGI").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the JEFG Board of Directors has determined that it is appropriate
and desirable to distribute all of the shares of HOLDING common stock that it
owns to the holders of JEFG common stock (the "Distribution") in a transaction
intended to qualify as a tax-free distribution for federal income tax purposes
under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code");
and
WHEREAS, JEFG has applied to the Internal Revenue Service for a private
letter ruling (the "Ruling") to the effect that the Distribution will qualify as
a tax-free distribution for federal income tax purposes under Section 355 of the
Code; and
WHEREAS, ITGI will be the principal subsidiary of JEFG immediately after the
Distribution; and
WHEREAS, it is intended that ITGI will merge with and into JEFG following
the Distribution (the "Merger"); and
WHEREAS, it is intended that HOLDING and its subsidiaries will accordingly
cease to be members of the affiliated group (within the meaning of Section
1504(a) of the Code) of which JEFG is the common parent, effective on or about
[ , 1999] (the "Effective Date"); and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to provide for and agree upon the allocation of
liabilities for taxes with respect to the parties for the taxable year that
includes the Effective Date (the "1999 Taxable Year"); and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto also desire to provide for the preparation and
filing of tax returns along with the payment of taxes shown due and payable
thereon with respect to the 1999 Taxable Year, the treatment of carrybacks and
adjustments with respect to the parties for the 1999 Taxable Year, and any other
matters related to taxes with respect to the 1999 Taxable Year, including
indemnification for any taxes imposed as a result of certain actions by the
parties that are inconsistent with the treatment of the Distribution as
tax-free; and
WHEREAS, the Tax Sharing Agreement entered into as of January 1, 1994 by and
between JEFG and ITGI has been terminated in its existing form and the Amended
and Restated Tax Sharing Agreement dated as of March 17, 1999 by and among JEFG,
HOLDING and ITGI (the "Prior Agreement") (attached hereto as Exhibit A) will
apply to all tax years ending before the 1999 Taxable Year,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
promises, covenants and conditions hereinafter contained, the parties hereto
agree as follows:
1. DEFINITIONS

JEFG Group files a Consolidated Return.
(e) "IRS" shall mean the Internal Revenue Service.

liability of a Member and its subsidiaries computed as if they had filed a
separate Federal income tax return for the applicable taxable year with the
modifications set forth in Section 1.1552-1(a)(2)(ii) of the Regulations. If
the computation of a Member's Separate Return Tax Liability as provided
herein does not result in a positive amount, such Member's Separate Return

Tax Liability for the period after the Distribution.

1.1552-1(a)(1)(ii) of the Regulations. If the computation of a Member's
Separate Taxable Income as provided herein does not result in a positive
amount, such Member's Separate Taxable Income shall be deemed to be zero.
For purposes of this definition, ITGI's Separate Taxable Income shall
include JEFG's Separate Taxable Income for the period after the
Distribution.
(l) "Separate Tax Liability" shall mean the amount determined under

2. SEPARATE TAX LIABILITY
(a) The Separate Tax Liability of ITGI shall be the amount set forth in
paragraph (b) hereof as modified by paragraphs (c) and (d) hereof.
(b) The amount referred to in this paragraph (b) shall be an amount
equal to that portion of the Consolidated Tax Liability for such taxable
year that the Separate Taxable Income of ITGI for such taxable year bears to
the sum of the Separate Taxable Incomes of all Members for such taxable
year; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such amount shall not exceed the Consolidated
Tax Liability for such taxable year.
(c) The amount computed pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall be
increased by 100% of the excess, if any, of the ITGI Separate Return Tax
Liability for such taxable year over such amount (the "Loss Amount").

reason of the inclusion of ITGI and its subsidiaries in the JEFG Group for the
1999 Taxable Year.
4. PAYMENTS
For the 1999 Taxable Year, payment of (i) the Separate Tax Liability of ITGI
by ITGI (less any Loss Amount paid to HOLDING) to JEFG (or to the IRS after the
Merger), (ii) the excess of the Consolidated Tax Liability over the amount
described in (i) (the "Holding Liability") by HOLDING to JEFG, (iii) the
Additional Amount, if any, by HOLDING to ITGI and (iv) the Loss Amount, if any,
by ITGI to HOLDING with respect to such taxable year shall be made as follows:

JEFG shall cause KPMG LLP to estimate the Separate Tax Liability (less any
Loss Amount to be paid to HOLDING), the Holding Liability, the Additional
Amount and the Loss Amount for such taxable year.
(b) ITGI shall pay to JEFG (or to the IRS after the Merger), HOLDING
shall pay to JEFG, HOLDING shall pay to ITGI and ITGI shall pay to HOLDING
on or before each of the due dates for JEFG to make payment of estimates of
JEFG Group's Federal income taxes for such taxable year one-fourth of the
amount estimated pursuant to paragraph (a) above (collectively, the
"Estimated Amounts"). If, after paying any such installment of the Estimated
Amounts, KPMG LLP makes a new estimate, the amount of each remaining
installment (if any) shall be the amount which would have been payable if
the new estimate had been made when the first estimate for the taxable year
was made, increased or decreased, as applicable, by the amount computed by
dividing:
(i) the difference between (A) the amount of the Estimated Amounts
required to be paid before the date on which the new estimate is made,
and (B) the amount of the Estimated Amounts which would have been
required to be paid before such date if the new estimate had been made
when the first estimate was made, by
(ii) the number of installments remaining to be paid on or after the
date on which the new estimate is made.
(c) If, after the end of the 1999 Taxable Year, at the time of the
filing of an application for extension of the time to file the tax return
for the 1999 Taxable Year, if so filed, it is determined that the estimated
Separate Tax Liability of ITGI (less any Loss Amount paid to HOLDING),
Holding Liability, Additional Amount or the Loss Amount for such taxable
period exceeds the aggregate amount paid pursuant to subparagraph (b) above
with respect to such taxable period, then such excess shall be paid on or
before the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month after the end of
such taxable period, and (ii) the date on which such excess is finally
determined, which shall be no later than 30 days after the extension for
such taxable period is filed.
(d) If, after the end of the 1999 Taxable Year, it is determined that
the actual Separate Tax Liability of ITGI (less any Loss Amount paid to
HOLDING), Holding Liability, Additional Amount or Loss Amount for such
taxable period exceeds the aggregate amount paid pursuant to subparagraph
(b) and (c) above with respect to such taxable period, then such excess
shall be paid on or before the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month
after the end of such taxable period, and (ii) the date on which such excess
is finally determined, which shall be no later than 30 days after the
Consolidated Return for such taxable period is filed.
D-3
(e) If, after the end of the 1999 Taxable Year, it is determined that
the amount paid pursuant to subparagraphs (b), (c) or (d) above with respect
to such taxable period exceeds the actual Separate Tax Liability of ITGI
(less any Loss Amount paid to HOLDING), Holding Liability, Additional Amount
or Loss Amount for such taxable period, then such excess shall be paid on or
before the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month after the end of
such taxable period, and (ii) the date on which such excess is finally
determined, which shall be no later than 30 days after the Consolidated
Return for such taxable period is filed.
5. CARRYBACKS
(a) If the JEFG Group has a consolidated unused investment credit, a
consolidated unused foreign tax credit, a consolidated excess charitable
contribution, a consolidated net capital loss or a consolidated net
operating loss, as such terms defined in the Regulations (a "Consolidated
Excess Amount") for any taxable year, the portion of such Consolidated
Excess Amount which is attributable to a Member (the "Separate Excess
Amount") shall be computed in accordance with Section 1.1502-79 of the
Regulations. Any consolidated unused research and experimentation credit of
the JEFG Group shall be treated and calculated in a manner consistent with
the foregoing sentence, and shall be included in the term "Consolidated
Excess Amount."
(b) If such Consolidated Excess Amount originates in the 1999 Taxable
Year, it will be carried back to a prior taxable year of the JEFG Group and
the effect of such carryback will be determined in accordance with the Prior
Agreement.
(c) Payment of any amount due under this Section 5 shall be made on the
date that a credit or refund is allowed with respect to the taxable year to
which such payment relates.
6. SUBSEQUENT ADJUSTMENTS AND PROCEDURAL MATTERS
(a) If any adjustments (other than adjustments made pursuant to Section
5 hereof) are made to the income, gains, losses, deductions or credits of
the JEFG Group for the 1999 Taxable Year, whether by reason of the filing of
an amended return or a claim for refund with respect to such taxable year or
an audit with respect to such taxable year by the IRS, the amounts due under
this Agreement for such taxable year shall be redetermined by taking into
account such adjustments. If, as a result of such redetermination, any
amounts due under this Agreement shall differ from the amounts previously
paid, then payment of such difference shall be made (a) in the case of an
adjustment resulting in a credit or refund, on the date on which such credit
or refund is allowed with respect to such adjustment or (b) in the case of
an adjustment resulting in the assertion of a deficiency, on the date on
which such deficiency is paid. Any amounts due under this paragraph (a)
shall include any interest attributable thereto computed in accordance with
Sections 6601 or 6611 of the Code, as the case may be, and any penalties or
additional amounts which may be imposed.
(b) If any tax audit is undertaken by any tax authority, HOLDING shall
initially have primary control of any dealings with such tax authority. Upon
a determination that such audit could give rise to an increase in either
HOLDING's or ITGI's liability under this Agreement, then HOLDING or ITGI, as
the case may be, shall be given primary control of any dealings with such
tax authority; provided, however, that the other party will be consulted
with respect to any matters which could result in an increase in the other
party's liability under this Agreement.
(c) If any adjustment or deficiency is proposed, asserted or assessed
by any tax authority which would give rise to an increase in either
HOLDING's or ITGI's liability under this Agreement, then HOLDING or ITGI, as
the case may be, shall have the primary right to contest, compromise or
settle any such adjustment or deficiency; provided, however, that the other
party will be consulted with respect to any matters which could result in an
increase in such other party's
D-4
liability under this Agreement. If such adjustment or deficiency would give
rise to an increase in both HOLDING's and ITGI's liability under this
Agreement, then HOLDING and ITGI shall jointly have the right to contest,
compromise or settle any such adjustment or deficiency.
7. CARRYBACKS FROM SEPARATE RETURN YEARS
This Agreement shall have no application to the carryback of a net operating
loss or credit from a separate return year (within the meaning of Section
1.1502-1(e) of the Treasury Regulations) to any taxable year of JEFG Group, and
no recomputation or other payment shall be made in respect of such carryback.
8. FILING OF CALIFORNIA SINGLE RETURNS
HOLDING may file or cause to be filed a single return for California
franchise and income tax purposes ("California Single Return") for those
affiliated corporations that are includible in a California combined report (the
"JEFG Combined Group") for the 1999 Taxable Year if the JEFG Combined Group is
required or permitted to file such a return. To the extent that it qualifies
under California law, JEFG shall be the "key corporation" with respect to any
such California Single Return and, to the extent that it does not so qualify,
shall designate a "key corporation" from among the members of the JEFG Combined
Group that does so qualify. Each party to this Agreement hereby consents to any
such designation on behalf of itself and any direct or indirect subsidiary
thereof. With regard to any income year with respect to which the JEFG Combined
Group files, or it is reasonably anticipated that the JEFG Combined Group will
file, a California Single Return for the 1999 Taxable Year, the estimated and
final California tax liability of each member of the JEFG Combined Group shall
be determined, to the extent permitted by California law, in a manner consistent
with the principles set forth in this Agreement, and payments of the estimated
and final tax liability so determined shall be made to the key corporation at
the time that payments of corresponding Federal payments are due.
9. FILING OF STATE CONSOLIDATED RETURNS
To the extent permitted or required by the applicable laws of any state
other than California, JEFG and its affiliated corporations (the "state
consolidated group"), at the election of HOLDING in its sole discretion, may
join for the 1999 Taxable Year in the filing of a single, combined or
consolidated franchise or income tax return ("state consolidated return") with
any such corporation required to file a franchise or income tax return in such
state for such taxable year. With regard to the 1999 Taxable Year with respect
to which the state consolidated group files, or it is reasonably anticipated
will file, a state consolidated return which includes ITGI, the estimated and
final state tax liability of each member of the state consolidated group shall
be determined, to the extent permitted by law of the state in which the return
is to be filed, in a manner consistent with the principles set forth in this
Agreement, and payments of the estimated and final tax liability so determined
shall be made to the member of the state consolidated group responsible for
payment of the state consolidated group's tax liability at the time that
payments of corresponding Federal payments are due.
10. LIABILITY FOR TAKING CERTAIN ACTIONS INCONSISTENT WITH THE TREATMENT OF
THE DISTRIBUTION AS TAX-FREE.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (other than
in this Section 10), (i) in the event that any party, or employee, officer,
or director of such party, takes any action inconsistent with, or fails to

Distribution as tax-free, then such party shall be liable for the
inconsistent action or failure to take required action of it or its
employees, officers and directors and shall indemnify and hold the other
parties harmless from any tax liabilities, including the costs thereof,
resulting from such
D-5
inconsistent action or failure to take required action, and (ii) if any
party engages in any transaction involving its stock or assets or makes any
factual statement or representation to the Internal Revenue Service in or in
connection with the Ruling that is inaccurate or incomplete in any material
respect, and as a result of that transaction or inaccuracy or incompleteness
of such factual statement or representation, the Distribution is treated as

representation shall hold the other parties harmless from any tax
liabilities, including the costs thereof, that result from the treatment of
the Distribution as a taxable event.

to take action) prior to the Distribution by any subsidiary of JEFG (other

take action) by HOLDING (and not JEFG) or by an employee, officer or
director of HOLDING (and not JEFG); (ii) any action taken (or failure to
take action) prior to the Distribution by JEFG or any employee, officer or

HOLDING (and not JEFG); (iii) any action taken (or failure to take action)
prior to the Distribution by any subsidiary of ITGI or any employee, officer

director of ITGI (and not HOLDING); (iv) any action taken (or failure to
take action) prior to the Distribution by any employee, officer or director
of ITGI shall be deemed to be an action taken (or failure to take action) by

not HOLDING); (v) any action taken (or failure to take action) after the
Distribution by JEFG, any subsidiary of JEFG (including ITGI and any
subsidiary of ITGI) (other than HOLDING or a subsidiary of HOLDING) or any
employee, officer or director of JEFG or such subsidiary of JEFG (including
ITGI and any subsidiary of ITGI) shall be deemed to be an action taken (or
failure to take action) by ITGI or by an employee, officer or director of
ITGI; and (vi) any action taken (or failure to take action) after the
Distribution by HOLDING, any subsidiary of HOLDING or any employee, officer
or director of HOLDING or such subsidiary of HOLDING shall be deemed to be
an action taken (or failure to take action) by HOLDING or by an employee,
officer or director of HOLDING.
(c) For purposes of this Section 10, any factual statement or
representation made by JEFG in or in connection with the Ruling with respect
to (i) ITGI and any subsidiary of ITGI, or with respect to JEFG following
the Distribution, including, without limitation, the intentions of JEFG
following the Distribution, shall be deemed to be a factual statement or
representation made by ITGI (and not HOLDING) or by an employee, officer or
director of ITGI (and not HOLDING), and (ii) JEFG and any subsidiary of JEFG
(other than ITGI or any subsidiary of ITGI and other than with respect to
JEFG following the Distribution, including, without limitation, the
intentions of JEFG following the Distribution) shall be deemed to be a
factual statement or representation made by HOLDING (and not JEFG) or by an
employee, officer or director of HOLDING (and not JEFG).
(d) ITGI has reviewed the materials submitted to the IRS in and in
connection with the Ruling. All such materials concerning ITGI and all such
materials concerning JEFG following the Distribution, including, without
limitation, any factual statements and representations concerning ITGI, its
business operations, capital structure and organization, are complete and
accurate in all material respects.
(e) HOLDING has reviewed the materials submitted to the IRS in and in
connection with the Ruling. All such materials concerning JEFG and
subsidiaries (other than (i) materials relating to ITGI or any subsidiary of
ITGI and (ii) materials concerning JEFG following the Distribution)
including, without limitation, any factual statements and representations
concerning JEFG or its
D-6
subsidiaries, their business operations, capital structure and organization,
are complete and accurate in all material respects.
(f) HOLDING and ITGI agree to split equally the costs of defending the
Ruling in a subsequent examination by the IRS if it is reasonably determined

by ITG Inc. ("ITGX") of the assets, liabilities and employees of ITGX's
research and development division to a newly formed subsidiary of ITGX (the
"R&D Subsidiary"), followed by a distribution by ITGX of all of the stock of
the R&D Subsidiary to ITGI (such transfer and distribution referred to
hereinafter as the "Internal Spin"). ITGI hereby represents and warrants
that ITGI and ITGX have not consummated the Internal Spin in its entirety
and have not consummated either of (i) such transfer of assets, liabilities
and employees to the R&D Subsidiary or (ii) such distribution of the stock
of the R&D Subsidiary. ITGI further represents and agrees that it will not

the R&D Subsidiary unless and until it has received a ruling from the IRS
that any such consummation will not adversely affect any ruling issued by
the IRS pursuant to the Ruling, and the subsequent supplements to the
Ruling.
