The “Grant Acceptance Date” is the date on which the Grantee accepted the grant of RHUs and concurrently agreed to become bound by the terms of the RHU Grant Certificate, this Agreement and the Plan, as designated on the signature page(s) hereto.

ARTICLE II

VESTING AND EXCHANGE OF RESTRICTED HOLDINGS UNITS

Section 2.1. Vesting of Restricted Units.

(a)

Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and in the Operating Agreements, the Restricted Units shall vest as provided in the RHU Grant Certificate and this Section 2.1.

(i)

Restricted Units will be eligible to vest on the date that both the Service Condition and the Price Condition (each as defined in the RHU Grant Certificate) with respect to such Restricted Units have been achieved, with the number of Restricted Units that vest on any such Vesting Date being equal to the cumulative percentage of Restricted Units that have met the Price Condition on such applicable Vesting Date (less any percentage of Restricted Units that previously vested), and any Restricted Unit that fails to satisfy the Price Condition by the close of business on the Expiration Date (as defined in the RHU Grant Certificate) shall be canceled and forfeited without any consideration.

(ii)

If, prior to the date the Restricted Units are vested or such Restricted Units otherwise terminate and are forfeited:

	(A)	the Grantee’s Employment terminates prior to the Service Condition being met due to the Grantee’s Retirement, then the Service Condition shall be waived for Restricted Units granted hereunder in an amount equal to (a) the applicable cumulative percentage of Restricted Units that satisfied the Price Condition at the time of the Grantee’s notice of Retirement or actual Retirement (as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion) multiplied by (b) the total number of Restricted Units granted hereunder prorated to reflect the number of full years of service such Grantee provided from the Measurement Date through the date of such notice of Retirement or actual Retirement, as applicable, and such Restricted Units shall become vested as of such date;

	(B)	the Grantee dies or experiences a Disability prior to the Service Condition being met, then the Service Condition shall be waived for Restricted Units granted hereunder in an amount equal to (a) the applicable cumulative percentage of Restricted Units that satisfied the Price Condition at the time of the Grantee’s death or Disability (as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion) multiplied by (b) the total number of Restricted Units granted hereunder prorated to reflect the number of full years of service such Grantee provided from the Measurement Date through the date of death or Disability, as applicable; provided that, all such Restricted Units for which the Service Condition is waived shall become vested on the date of the Grantee’s death or Disability; provided further that the Administrator in its sole discretion, may waive the Service Condition for all Restricted Units granted hereunder for the Grantee who dies or experiences a Disability prior to the Service Vesting Date (as defined in the RHU Grant Certificate) and/or Expiration Date, in which case all remaining unvested Restricted Units granted hereunder shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest until the Service Vesting Date and/or Expiration Date, to the extent the applicable Price Conditions are thereafter satisfied with respect thereto, as if such Grantee’s Employment had continued until the Service Vesting Date and/or Expiration Date, as applicable, and any remaining Restricted Units that vest in accordance with this Section 2.1(a)(ii)(B) shall become vested on the date the applicable Price Condition is achieved. Any determination of the Grantee’s death or Disability shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion; and

	(C)	a Change in Control occurs prior to any termination of the Grantee’s Employment, then all or any portion of any unvested Restricted Units may be vested, subject to the discretion of the Administrator and, if so determined a vesting event, the date of the consummation of the Change in Control shall be deemed the “Vesting Date” for all purposes under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation receives an opinion of counsel that there has been a legal judgment or legal development in the Grantee’s jurisdiction that would likely result in the favorable treatment applicable to the Restricted Units upon Retirement pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)(ii) being deemed unlawful or discriminatory, then the Corporation will not apply the favorable treatment at the time the Grantee’s Employment terminates due to the Grantee’s Retirement under clause (A) above, and the Restricted Units will be treated as set forth in Section 2.1(a)(i), 2.1(b), 2.1(c) or the other provisions of this Section 2.1(a)(ii), as applicable.

	(b)	If the Grantee’s Employment terminates prior to the applicable Vesting Date for any reason other than due to the Grantee’s death, Disability or Retirement, all then unvested Restricted Units and all corresponding SERs shall immediately terminate and be forfeited without consideration, and no exchange of such unvested Restricted Units for shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2 shall occur; provided that for Exempt Grantees whose Employment terminates prior to the Service Vesting Date, the Service Condition shall be waived for Restricted Units granted hereunder in an amount equal to (a) the applicable cumulative percentage of Restricted Units that satisfied the Price Condition at the time of the Grantee’s notice of termination or actual termination of Employment (as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion) multiplied by (b) the total number of Restricted Units granted hereunder prorated to reflect the number of full years of service such Grantee provided from the Measurement Date through the date of such notice of termination or actual termination, as applicable; provided further that, all such Restricted Units for which the Service Condition is waived shall become vested on the date of such notice of termination or actual termination, as applicable.

“Exempt Grantee” means any Grantee (x) whose termination of Employment was involuntary without Cause or due to reasons outside such Grantee’s control and (y) who is granted such ‘exempt grantee’ status as determined by the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Co-Executive Chairmen of the Corporation, acting in their sole discretion and by majority vote.

	(c)	Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Grantee and the Corporation or as otherwise determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time of grant or otherwise, the right to vest in the Restricted Units, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that the Grantee is no longer actively providing services (even if still considered employed or engaged under local Law) and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local Law (e.g., active Employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local Law) (a “Service Termination”), and all unvested Restricted Units and corresponding SERs shall immediately be forfeited upon such date. The Administrator has the sole discretion and authority to determine whether the Grantee is actively providing services (including in respect of any period following the Grantee’s delivery of notice of resignation or receipt of notice of termination).

	(d)	Once a Class P Unit is vested and becomes an Equitized Class P Series Unit (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership), it shall be automatically converted into a Class A Unit pursuant to the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership.

	(e)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Restricted Units that vest prior to the applicable Vesting Date pursuant to Sections 2.1(a)(ii)(A) or (B) or Section 2.1(b) hereof shall be deemed to be unvested Restricted Units, and shall not be “vested” or “vest,” until the applicable Vesting Date set forth in the RHU Grant Certificate for all other purposes under this Agreement and applicable organizational documents (including the Operating Agreements).

Section 2.2. Exercise of SERs and Exchange of Restricted Units.

	(a)	To the extent that a Holdings II Unit becomes vested and the related Class P Unit has become a vested and Equitized Class P Unit (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership) and automatically converted to a Class A Unit pursuant to the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership (subject to Section 2.1(e)), the Grantee may elect to exercise the corresponding SER to (i) receive from Holdings II a Class A Unit underlying the Holdings II Unit in connection with the redemption thereof, and (ii) exchange such Class A Unit for a share of Common Stock, in each case, on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for splits, unit distributions and reclassifications (the “Exchange”). Restricted Units may be Exchanged on a quarterly basis, pursuant to policies and procedures established by the Administrator in its sole discretion from time to time. The Administrator shall have the sole discretion to impose policies and procedures for any sale of shares of Common Stock received by

the Grantee in the Exchange. The date on which any Restricted Unit is to be Exchanged hereunder is referred to as an “Exchange Date.”

	(b)	On any Exchange Date, each vested Holdings II Unit subject to the Exchange shall be cancelled and each related Class A Unit shall be transferred to the Corporation or its designated subsidiary in exchange for the Corporation delivering, or causing to be delivered to the Grantee either (i) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Units that are subject to the Exchange on such Exchange Date pursuant to Section 2.2(a), subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for splits, unit distributions and reclassifications or (ii) an amount of cash, denominated in U.S. dollars, equal to the Fair Market Value of the foregoing number of shares of Common Stock (a “Cash Payment”). The Administrator may elect in its sole discretion whether to Exchange the Restricted Units for shares of Common Stock or for a Cash Payment. The delivery of shares of Common Stock or Cash Payment to the Grantee shall be made as soon as administratively practicable on or following the applicable Exchange Date (or next permissible trading window of Common Stock). Any of the foregoing payments or deliveries shall in all instances be subject to Sections 4.4 and 4.6.

	(c)	Subject to the provisions of this Article II relating to the number of shares of Common Stock that are to be delivered or Cash Payment that is to be paid on any applicable delivery date and solely to the extent permitted under Section 409A, if applicable, the Corporation may impose such other conditions and procedures in relation to such delivery or payment as it may reasonably determine, including with respect to the Exchange.

	(d)	To the extent (i) the Grantee’s Employment terminates or the Grantee undergoes a Service Termination, in either case, for any reason, and (ii) any Holdings II Unit becomes, or has become, vested and the related Class P Unit becomes, or has become, a vested and Equitized Class P Series Unit (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership) and automatically converted to a Class A Unit pursuant to the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement of KKR Group Partnership (subject to Section 2.1(e)), the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the corresponding SER and force an Exchange without any action on the part of the Grantee or the Grantee’s consent (a “Forced Exchange”). In the event of a Forced Exchange, each vested Holdings II Unit subject to the Exchange shall be cancelled and each related Class A Unit shall be transferred to the Corporation or its designated subsidiary in exchange for the Corporation delivering, or causing to be delivered by the Designated Service Recipient, to the Grantee either (A) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Units that are subject to the Exchange on such Exchange Date pursuant to this Section 2.2(d), subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for splits, unit distributions and reclassifications or (B) a Cash Payment, as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The delivery of shares of Common Stock or Cash Payment to the Grantee shall be made as soon as administratively practicable on or following the applicable Exchange Date (or next permissible trading window of Common Stock). Any of the foregoing payments or deliveries shall in all instances be subject to Sections 4.4 and 4.6.

Section 2.3. Dividend and Distribution Payments. The RHUs granted to the Grantee hereunder do not include the right to receive any dividend payments with respect to the Common Stock. Any Distribution paid by KKR Group Partnership to Holdings II with respect to Class A Units held by Holdings II shall be allocated and payable by Holdings II to the Grantee of the Restricted Units corresponding to such Class A Units as provided in the Operating Agreements (subject to Section 2.1(e)).

	(b)	No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder (other than a failure or delay beyond a period of time specified herein) shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 4.6. Withholding.

(a) The provisions of Section 4(d) of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Regardless of any action the Corporation or the Designated Service Recipient takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Corporation or the Designated Service Recipient. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Corporation and/or the Designated Service Recipient (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items and (2) are under no obligation to structure the terms of the RHUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. The Corporation may refuse to issue or deliver Common Stock, the Cash Payment or the proceeds of the sale of Common Stock, if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as set forth in this Section 4.6.

(b) Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee will pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation and/or the Designated Service Recipient to satisfy all Tax-

Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Corporation and/or the Designated Service Recipient to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items, if any, by one or a combination of the following:

	(i)	withholding from the Cash Payment, the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by the Corporation and/or the Designated Service Recipient; or

	(ii)	withholding from proceeds of the sale of Common Stock delivered upon the Exchange either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Corporation (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or

	(iii)	withholding in Common Stock to be delivered upon the Exchange.

The Corporation may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in the Grantee’s jurisdiction(s), in which case the Grantee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent in Common Stock. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Common Stock, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Exchange, notwithstanding that a number of shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items. Finally, the Grantee shall pay to the Corporation or the Designated Service Recipient any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Corporation or the Designated Service Recipient may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related items, if any, will survive the Grantee’s withdrawal from Holdings II or Transfer of any RHUs.

Section 4.7. Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by courier service, by fax or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified):

Section 4.8. Entire Agreement; Termination of Agreement; Survival.

	(a)	This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, pertaining thereto. The Grantee acknowledges that the grant of RHUs provided for under this Agreement is in full satisfaction of any and all grants of equity or equity-based awards that representatives of the Corporation or its Affiliates, on or prior to the date hereof, may have informed the Grantee that such Grantee is entitled to receive.

	(b)	This Agreement shall terminate when the Grantee and all Permitted Transferees cease to hold any of the RHUs that have been granted hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Article IV shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.9. 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 4.10. 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.

Section 4.11. Appendices. Appendices A, B, C, D and E constitute part of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article IV, the provisions of Sections 9 through 18 (inclusive) of Appendix D shall govern solely with respect to, and shall be applicable only to the interpretation, administration and enforcement of the provisions of Appendix D, but not to any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Appendix.

Section 4.12. Further Assurances. The Grantee shall perform all other acts and execute and deliver all other documents as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Section 4.13. Section 409A; Employment with Designated Service Recipient.

	(a)	This Section 4.13(a) applies to Grantees who are U.S. tax residents (such as, a U.S. citizen, green card holder or a U.S. tax resident under the substantial presence test) to the extent applicable. All references to any “separation from service” or termination of the Employment of or the services to be provided by the Grantee, shall be deemed to refer to a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, if applicable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of the Grantee’s termination of Employment the Grantee is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or delivery of Common Stock otherwise payable or provided hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then, to the extent that Section 409A applies to the RHUs, the Corporation will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or delivery hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or delivery of Common Stock ultimately paid or provided to the Grantee) until the date that is six months following the Grantee’s termination of Employment (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A) and (ii) if any other payments or other deliveries due to the Grantee hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or other deliveries shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other delivery compliant under Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other delivery shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Administrator, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement the provisions of this Section 4.13(a) in good faith; provided that none of the Corporation, the Administrator nor any of the Corporation’s or KKR Group’s, as applicable,

employees, directors or representatives shall have any liability to the Grantee with respect to this Section 4.13(a).

	(b)	Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate the Corporation, Designated Service Recipient or any other member of the KKR Group, as applicable, to employ the Grantee in any capacity whatsoever or to prohibit or restrict the Corporation, Designated Service Recipient or any other member of the KKR Group, as applicable, from terminating the Grantee’s Employment at any time or for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.

Section 4.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by electronic 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 electronic transmission shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Agreement.
