WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Pzena Investment Management, Inc., the Managing Member of Pzena Investment Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) desires to amend the Plan in accordance with the authority granted by the Plan’s terms.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan shall be amended as follows:

In making a determination of Fair Market Value, the Committee shall take into account the information available with respect to the value of the Company, which factors may include (but are not limited to) (i) if the Class A Stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange or any other national securities exchange, the closing price per share of Class A stock on the applicable exchange on that date (or, if no closing price is reported, the last reported sale price) and (ii) discounts for lack of marketability of the Class B Units or waivers of benefits under the Tax Receivable Agreement, dated October 30, 2007, by and among Pzena Investment Management, Inc., the Company and the Continuing Members and Existing Members named on the signature pages thereto.
