SECTION 2.1    Exchange of LP Units.

(a)    General Rule. Following the first anniversary of the IPO Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in connection with a Permitted Exchange Event:

(i)    each Holdings Common Unitholder may surrender Common Units (including unvested Class B Common Units held by such Holdings Common Unitholder) to APAM (together with an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, which shall be delivered to APAM for cancellation pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation) in exchange for a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of Common Units surrendered; and

(ii)    each Holdings Preferred Unitholder may surrender Preferred Units to APAM (together with an equal number of shares of Class C Common Stock, which shall be delivered to APAM for cancellation pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation) (A) until the Preference Termination Event, in exchange for a number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the number of Preferred Units surrendered or (B) in exchange for a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the product of the number of Preferred Units surrendered multiplied by the Conversion Rate plus cash in lieu of any fractional share of Class A Common Stock (after aggregating all shares of Class A Common Stock that would otherwise be received by such holder);

in each case by delivering to APAM an Exchange Notice in respect of the LP Units to be Exchanged, duly executed by such holder or such holder’s duly authorized attorney, in each case delivered during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of APAM.

In the case of an Exchange in connection with a Share Repurchase, not less than 20 days prior to the date on which APAM anticipates commencing the Share Repurchase (or, if later, promptly after APAM discovers that the Share Repurchase will occur) a written notice shall be sent by or on behalf of APAM to the LP Unitholders as they appear in the records of APAM or given by electronic communication in compliance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Such notice shall state: (a) the date on which the Share Repurchase is anticipated to be effected; (b) the amount of cash, securities and other consideration payable per share of Class A Common Stock and/or Convertible Preferred Stock; (c) the instructions a holder must follow to Exchange LP Units in connection with such Share Repurchase; and (d) the date upon which the holders’ opportunity to elect to Exchange shall terminate, which shall be the close of business on the last full business day preceding the date fixed to consummate the Share Repurchase, except in the case of a tender offer, in which case the date shall be the same date on which the tender offer expires.

APAM shall use its best efforts to cause the then-acting registrar and transfer agent of the Stock to deliver the number of shares of Stock deliverable upon such Exchange (as specified in the relevant Exchange Notice), registered in the name of the relevant exchanging LP Unitholder (or in such other name as is requested in writing by the LP Unitholder, subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement), in the case of an Exchange in connection with (i) a Quarterly Exchange Date, on the Quarterly Exchange Date, (ii)  a Share Repurchase, within one business day after the consummation of such Share Repurchase, (iii) any other Exchange pursuant to Section 2.1(a), (x) on the business day following the receipt of a properly completed Exchange Notice if such notice is received by APAM by 10:00 a.m. (ET) on the date of receipt, or (y) on the second business day following the receipt

of a properly completed Exchange Notice if such notice is received by APAM after 10:00 a.m. (ET) on the date of receipt. To the extent the Stock is settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, APAM will upon the written instruction of an exchanging LP Unitholder, use its reasonable best efforts to cause the then-acting registrar and transfer agent of the Stock to deliver the shares of Stock deliverable to such exchanging LP Unitholder through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, to the account of the participant of The Depository Trust Company designated by such exchanging LP Unitholder.

In the case of an Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.1(a), LP Units will be deemed to have been exchanged immediately prior to the close of business on the Date of Exchange and the LP Unitholder will be treated as a holder of record of Class A Common Stock or Convertible Preferred Stock, as the case may be, as of the close of business on such Date of Exchange.

(b)    Mandatory Exchanges. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, APAM may require each LP Unitholder to Exchange all LP Units held by such LP Unitholder (together with an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, which shall be delivered to APAM for cancellation pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation) for shares of Convertible Preferred Stock or Class A Common Stock, as applicable; provided that any such Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) shall be effective immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be effective if such Change of Control is not consummated). APAM shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide written notice of an expected Change in Control to all LP Unitholders not less than 30 days prior to the expected date of the Change in Control. Such notice shall include a statement by APAM as to whether it intends to require all LP Unitholders to Exchange all LP Units for shares of Stock in connection with the Change in Control.

(c)    Exchange Conditions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Holdings Common Unitholder may Exchange LP Units only to the extent such Holdings Common Unitholder’s Revaluation Capital Account at the time of the exchange represents at least the same percentage of the aggregate Revaluation Capital Account balances of all partners of Holdings as the Percentage Interest represented by such Common Units to be Exchanged. To the extent a Holdings Common Unitholder has a Capital Account Shortfall, such Holdings Common Unitholder may only Exchange the portion of its Common Units that represent the same (or less than the same) percentage of the aggregate LP Units as the percentage interest in the aggregate Revaluation Capital Account balances of all partners of Holdings represented by such Holdings Common Unitholder’s Revaluation Capital Account and APAM will succeed to that amount of such Holdings Common Unitholder’s Revaluation Capital Account equal to the product of (a) the Pro-Rata Capital Account and (b) the number of Common Units exchanged.

(d)    Cancellation of Stock. Immediately before the close of business on the Date of Exchange of any LP Unit pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), APAM shall automatically cancel an equal number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, surrendered by the exchanging LP Unitholder. Any such cancelled shares of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock shall be deemed no longer outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall automatically cease and terminate. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each LP Unitholder shall be deemed to have consented to the cancellation of such LP Unitholder’s shares of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.1(d) and the Certificate of Incorporation.

(e)    Exchanges of Unvested Class B Common Units. Shares of Class A Common Stock delivered upon the Exchange of unvested Class B Common Units shall be subject to the same vesting requirements applicable to the unvested Class B Common Units so exchanged.

(f)    Expenses. APAM and each exchanging LP Unitholder each shall bear its own expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated, except that APAM shall bear any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; provided, however, that if any shares of Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the LP Unitholder that requested the Exchange (in such case in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement), then such LP Unitholder and/or the Person in whose name such shares are to be delivered shall pay to APAM the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange (to the extent the amount of any such taxes are in excess of what would be required to be paid by APAM in connection with, or arising by reason of such Exchange, if the shares of Stock were to be delivered in the name of the LP Unitholder that requested the Exchange) or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of APAM that such tax has been paid or is not payable. For the avoidance of doubt, each exchanging LP Unitholder shall bear any and all income or gains taxes imposed on gain realized by such exchanging LP Unitholder as a result of any such Exchange.

(g)    Limited Power to Impose Additional Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and tax advisor, shall reasonably determine in good faith that interests in Holdings do not meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h), APAM may impose such restrictions on any Exchange (including, for the avoidance of doubt, restrictions in addition to those contained in this Agreement) as APAM may reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable so that Holdings is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code (but, in the absence of a change of law, APAM may not impose restrictions in the circumstances described in clauses (ii), (iv) or (v) of the definition of “Permitted Exchange Event” as defined herein).

(h)    Exchanges Subject to Other Agreements or Prohibitions. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Exchange shall not be permitted pursuant to this Agreement to the extent the Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, reasonably determines in good faith that such Exchange (i) would be prohibited by law or regulation or (ii) would not be permitted under any other agreement with APAM or its Subsidiaries to which such LP Unitholder is then subject (including, without limitation, the Partnership Agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, no Exchange shall be deemed to be prohibited by any law or regulation pertaining to the registration of securities if such securities have been so registered or if any exemption from such registration requirements is reasonably available.

(i)    Continued Applicability of Corporation’s Policies and Securities Laws. In the event of an Exchange pursuant to this Agreement, (i) each LP Unitholder who is subject to APAM’s insider trading policy and any other similar policies will remain subject to such insider trading and other policies, and (ii) each LP Unitholder will be subject to applicable securities laws and rules. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.1(i) is not itself intended to place any restriction on the ability of any LP Unitholder to Exchange LP Units pursuant to this Agreement.

SECTION 2.2    Stock to be Issued.

(a)    Subject to the rights of certain holders to registration under the Registration Rights Agreement, APAM shall not have any obligation to deliver shares of Stock that have been registered under the Securities Act in connection with any Exchange. In connection with any such Exchange, APAM reserves the right to provide registered shares of Stock, unregistered shares of Stock or any combination thereof, as it may determine in its sole discretion and subject to registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement. Shares of Stock received by an LP Unitholder pursuant hereto shall not be transferred except in compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement. In connection with any Exchange, APAM reserves the right (i) to deliver certificated or uncertificated shares of Stock and (ii) to cause the certificates evidencing such shares to be imprinted with legends or to cause the Company’s share registry to include analogous notations, as to restrictions on transfer that it may deem necessary or appropriate, including legends or notations as to applicable federal or state securities laws or other legal or contractual restrictions. Shares of stock received pursuant to an Exchange Registration shall not include any legends or analogous notations in the Company’s share registry indicating that such shares are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

(b)    APAM shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock and Convertible Preferred Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock and Convertible Preferred Stock as shall be deliverable upon any such Exchange; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude APAM from satisfying its obligations in respect of any such Exchange by delivery of purchased shares of Class A Common Stock or Convertible Preferred Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of APAM or any Subsidiary thereof).

(c)    Prior to the date of this Agreement, APAM has taken all such steps as may be required to cause to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3(d) or (e), as applicable, under the Exchange Act, and be exempt for purposes of Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, any acquisitions or dispositions of equity securities of APAM (including derivative securities with respect thereto) and any securities that may be deemed to be equity securities or derivative securities of APAM for such purposes that result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, by each director or officer of APAM who may reasonably be expected to be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to APAM upon the registration of any class of equity security of APAM pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act (with the authorizing resolutions specifying the name of each such officer or director whose acquisition or disposition of securities is to be exempted and the number of securities that may be acquired and disposed of by each such person pursuant to this Agreement as of the date of this Agreement).

SECTION 3.1    Representations and Warranties of APAM. APAM represents and warrants to each of the several LP Unitholders party hereto that (i) it is a corporation duly incorporated and is validly existing in active status under the laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) it has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to issue the Stock in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by APAM and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation, the issuance of the Stock) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of APAM, (iv) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and

binding obligation of APAM enforceable against APAM in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally, and (v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by APAM and the consummation by APAM of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (A) result in a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation of APAM or the Amended and Restated Bylaws of APAM or (B) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which APAM is a party, or (C) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to APAM or by which any property or asset of APAM is bound or affected, except with respect to clauses (B) or (C) for any conflicts, defaults, accelerations, terminations, cancellations or violations, that would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on APAM or its business, financial condition or results of operations.

SECTION 3.2    Representations and Warranties of the LP Unitholders. Each LP Unitholder, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to APAM that (i) if it is not a natural person, it is duly incorporated or formed and, to the extent such concept exists in its jurisdiction of organization, is in good standing under the laws of such jurisdiction, (ii) it has all requisite legal capacity and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) if it is not a natural person, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by it and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other entity action on the part of such LP Unitholder, (iv) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such LP Unitholder enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally, and (v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such LP Unitholder and the consummation by such LP Unitholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (A) if it is not a natural person, result in a violation of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other organizational documents of such LP Unitholder or (B) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such LP Unitholder is a party, or (C) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable such LP Unitholder, except with respect to clauses (B) or (C) for any conflicts, defaults, accelerations, terminations, cancellations or violations, that would not in any material respect result in the unenforceability against such LP Unitholder of this Agreement.

SECTION 4.1    Additional LP Unitholders. To the extent an LP Unitholder validly transfers any or all of such holder’s LP Units to another Person in a transaction in accordance with, and not in contravention of, the Partnership Agreement, then such transferee (each, a “Permitted Transferee”) shall execute and deliver a joinder to this Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B, whereupon such Permitted Transferee shall become an LP Unitholder hereunder. Any Person to whom Holdings issues LP Units in the future and who executes and delivers a joinder to this Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B, shall become an LP Unitholder hereunder.
