INVESTMENT TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC.
RESTRICTED SHARE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of                 between Investment Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, and                  , a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Director”).

WHEREAS, the Director has been granted the following award under the Company’s Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Subplan (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, the Director is not employed by the Company or a subsidiary or parent of the Company and is not otherwise ineligible to participate in the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows.

1.             Award of Shares.  Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, the Director is hereby awarded  Restricted Shares (the “Award”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and those herein set forth.  The Award is granted as of               (the “Date of Grant”).  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.  In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control.

2.             Terms and Conditions.  It is understood and agreed that the Award of Restricted Shares evidenced hereby is subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Vesting of Award.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, this Award shall become vested in three equal annual installments, beginning on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant; provided, however, that the Award shall become immediately vested in full (i) upon a Change of Control of the Company or (ii) in the event that the Director ceases to serve as  Director of the Company due to the Director’s death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code).  Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, all dividends and other amounts receivable in connection with any adjustments to the Common Stock under Section 5 of the 1994 Stock Option and Long-Term Incentive Plan, as incorporated within the Plan, shall be subject to the vesting schedule in this Section 2(a).

(b) Termination of Service.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(c) below, in the event that the Director ceases to serve as a Director for any reason not described or provided for in Section 2(a)(ii) above, that portion of the Award that has not yet vested shall be forfeited.

(c) Continued Service.  If the Director ceases serving as a Director and, immediately thereafter, he or she is employed by the Company or any subsidiary, then, solely for the purposes of Sections 2.(a) and (b), Director will not be deemed to have ceased service as a Director at that time, and his or her continued employment by the Company or any subsidiary will be deemed to be continued service as a Director.

(d)  Certificates.  Any certificate or other evidence of ownership issued in respect of Restricted Shares awarded hereunder shall be deposited with the Company, or its designee, together with, if requested by the Company, a stock power executed in blank by the Director, and shall bear a legend disclosing the restrictions on transferability imposed on such Restricted Shares by this Agreement (the “Restrictive Legend”).  Upon the vesting of Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, the certificates evidencing such vested Common Stock, not bearing the Restrictive Legend, shall be delivered to the Director or other evidence of vested Common Stock shall be provided to the Director.

(e)  Rights of a Stockholder.  Prior to the time a Restricted Share is fully vested hereunder, the Director shall have no right to transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber such Restricted Share.  During such period, the Director shall have all other rights of a stockholder, including, but not limited to, the right to vote and to receive dividends (subject to Section 2(a) hereof) at the time paid on such Restricted Shares.
