NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1	– THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PREPARATION.

T. Rowe Price Group derives its consolidated revenues and net income primarily from investment advisory services that its subsidiaries provide to individual and institutional investors in the sponsored T. Rowe Price U.S. mutual funds and other investment portfolios, including separately managed accounts, sub-advised funds, and other sponsored investment portfolios. We also provide our investment advisory clients with related administrative services, including distribution, mutual fund transfer agent, accounting and shareholder services; participant recordkeeping and transfer agent services for defined contribution retirement plans; brokerage; and trust services.

Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management impact our revenues and results of operations.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the use of estimates and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of our results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Actual results may vary from our estimates. Certain prior year items have been reclassed to conform to current year presentation.

The unaudited interim financial information contained in these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2012 Annual Report.

On January 1, 2013, we adopted new financial reporting guidance that requires the disclosure of information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, including the line item of our consolidated income statements to which such items were reclassified. The required information could be presented either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes. We elected to present these disclosures in Note 9 to the financial statements.


NOTE 2	– INFORMATION ABOUT RECEIVABLES, REVENUES, AND SERVICES.

Accounts receivable from our sponsored mutual funds for advisory fees and advisory-related administrative services aggregate $184.0 million at December 31, 2012, and $197.6 million at March 31, 2013.

Revenues (in millions) from advisory services provided under agreements with our sponsored mutual funds and other investment clients include:

Total	$	530.3	$	601.0	$	576.8	$	617.4

Investors that we serve are primarily domiciled in the U.S.; investment advisory clients outside the U.S. account for about 8.5% of our assets under management at March 31, 2013.

Fees for advisory-related administrative services provided to our sponsored mutual funds in the U.S. during the first quarter of the year were $64.7 million in 2012 and $67.8 million in 2013. Distribution and other servicing fees earned from certain classes of our sponsored mutual funds in the U.S. during the first quarter of the year were $22.2 million in 2012 and $26.2 million in 2013.


NOTE 3	– INVESTMENTS IN SPONSORED FUNDS - AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE.

We make investments in our sponsored funds for general corporate investment purposes or to provide seed capital for newly formed funds. At December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, we deem these funds to be voting interest entities. These investments (in millions) include:



	Aggregate cost		Unrealized holding gains		Aggregate fair value
	Aggregate cost		Unrealized holding gains		Aggregate fair value
December 31, 2012
Stock and blended asset funds	$	336.9	$	178.9	$	515.8

Bond funds	580.9		52.0		632.9
Total	$	929.2	$	255.6	$	1,184.8

NOTE 4	– DEBT SECURITIES HELD BY SAVINGS BANK SUBSIDIARY.

Our savings bank subsidiary holds investments in marketable debt securities, including mortgage- and other asset-backed securities, which are accounted for as available-for-sale. The following table (in millions) details the components of these investments.



	12/31/2012				3/31/2013
	Fair value		Unrealized holding gains (losses)		Fair value		Unrealized holding gains (losses)
Investments with temporary impairment (0 securities in 2013) of
Less than 12 months	$	6.4	$	.0	$	—	$	—
12 months or more	1.0		.0		—		—
Total	7.4		.0		—		—
Investments with unrealized holding gains	128.6		3.2		134.2		2.7
Total	$	136.0	$	3.2	$	134.2	$	2.7
Aggregate cost	$	132.8			$	131.5

The unrealized losses in these investments were generally caused by changes in interest rates and market liquidity, and not by changes in credit quality. We intend to hold these securities to their maturities, which generally correlate to the maturities of our customer deposits, and believe it is more-likely-than-not that we will not be required to sell any of these securities before recovery of their amortized cost. Accordingly, impairment of these investments is considered temporary.


NOTE 5	– OTHER INVESTMENTS.

These investments (in millions) include:



	12/31/2012		3/31/2013
Cost method investments
10% interest in Daiwa SB Investments Ltd. (Japan)	$	12.7	$	12.6
Other investments	46.5		47.8
Equity method investments
26% interest in UTI Asset Management Company Limited (India)	139.8		136.3
Other investments	9.4		8.1
Investments held as trading
Sponsored fund investments	2.6		2.7
Securities held by consolidated sponsored investment portfolios	92.7		93.7
U.S. Treasury note	1.0		1.0
Total	$	304.7	$	302.2

The securities held by consolidated sponsored investment portfolios relate to investment portfolios in which we provided initial seed capital at the time of its formation. We have determined at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, that these investment portfolios are voting interest entities in which we have a controlling financial interest.

Page 9


NOTE 6	– FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.

We determine the fair value of our investments using the following broad levels of inputs as defined by related accounting standards:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk. These inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources.

Level 3 – unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions based on the best information available. We do not value any investments using Level 3 inputs.

These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with our investments. There have been no transfers in or out of the levels. The following table summarizes our investments (in millions) that are recognized in our consolidated balance sheets using fair value measurements determined based on the differing levels of inputs.



	Level 1		Level 2
December 31, 2012
Cash equivalents	$	732.8
Investments in sponsored funds	1,140.1
Investments held as trading	18.1		$	77.2
Debt securities held by savings bank subsidiary	—		136.0
Total	$	1,891.0	$	213.2

March 31, 2013
Cash equivalents	$	1,099.3
Investments in sponsored funds	1,184.8
Investments held as trading	27.8		$	68.6
Debt securities held by savings bank subsidiary	—		134.2
Total	$	2,311.9	$	202.8

Customer deposits at our savings bank subsidiary are not measured at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value of these deposits, based on discounting expected cash outflows at maturity dates that range up to five years using current interest rates offered for deposits with the same dates of maturity, was $157.8 million at December 31, 2012, and $152.2 million at March 31, 2013. The fair value was determined using Level 2 inputs.


NOTE 7	– STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.:

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of March 31, 2013, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 5, 2013, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

GENERAL.

Our revenues and net income are derived primarily from investment advisory services provided to individual and institutional investors in our U.S. sponsored mutual funds and other investment portfolios. The other investment portfolios include separately managed accounts, subadvised funds, and other sponsored investment portfolios including common trust funds, target-date retirement trusts and mutual funds offered to investors outside the U.S. and through variable annuity life insurance plans. Investment advisory clients domiciled outside the U.S. account for about 8.5% of our assets under management at March 31, 2013.

We manage a broad range of U.S., international and global stock, bond, and money market mutual funds and other investment portfolios, which meet the varied needs and objectives of individual and institutional investors. Investment advisory revenues depend largely on the total value and composition of assets under our management. Accordingly, fluctuations in financial markets and in the composition of assets under management affect our revenues and results of operations.

We remain debt-free with substantial liquidity and resources that allow us to take advantage of attractive growth opportunities, invest in key capabilities including investment professionals and technologies and, most importantly, provide our clients with strong investment management expertise and service both now and in the future.

BACKGROUND.

U.S. equities rose in the first quarter of 2013, lifting several major indexes to multi-year highs, if not all-time highs, as the economy continued to slowly expand, labor markets strengthened somewhat further over the period as a whole, and the Federal Reserve continued its asset purchase plans to hold down interest rates. The U.S. markets advanced despite tighter U.S. fiscal policy and renewed concerns about the European sovereign debt crisis. Non-U.S. developed markets lagged their U.S. counterparts, while emerging market stocks fell as economic slowdowns in a few emerging countries led investors to shift money to developed markets.

Returns of several major equity market indexes for the first quarter of 2013 are as follows:



		Three months ended
Index		3/31/2013
S&P 500 Index		10.6%
NASDAQ Composite Index ⁽¹⁾		8.2%

MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, and Far East) Index		5.2%
MSCI Emerging Markets Index		-1.6%

⁽¹⁾returns exclude dividends

U.S. Bonds were mostly flat in the first quarter of 2013, as positive news about the global economy led investors to seek riskier assets, including high yield bonds. Longer-term Treasury bond yields rose slightly in the quarter though they continue to be near historic lows. The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury at March 31, 2013, was 1.9%, slightly higher than the December 31, 2012, rate of 1.8%. At its March meeting, the Federal Reserve reaffirmed that it would continue its asset purchase plan and maintain its low interest rate policy so long as the unemployment rate remains above 6.5% and annual inflation remains below 2.5% in the short-term. Bonds in overseas markets saw larger losses in dollar terms in the first quarter of 2013, as currencies declined relative to the U.S. dollar.

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT.

Our assets under management (in billions) have changed during 2013 as follows:



	Quarter ended 3/31/2013
Assets under management at beginning of period	$	576.8
Net cash flows
Sponsored mutual funds in the U.S.	7.6
Other portfolios	(4.3		)
	3.3
Market valuation changes and income	37.3
Change during the period	40.6
Assets under management at end of period	$	617.4

Assets under management at March 31, 2013, include $459.6 billion in stock and blended asset investment portfolios and $157.8 billion in fixed income investment portfolios. The investment portfolios that we manage consist of $377.0 billion in the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the U.S. and $240.4 billion in other investment portfolios.

We incur significant expenditures to attract new investment advisory clients and additional investments from our existing clients. These efforts involve costs that generally precede any future revenues that we might recognize from additions to our assets under management.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

First quarter of 2013 versus first quarter of 2012.

Investment advisory revenues were up 12.8%, or $79.9 million, to $702.9 million in the first quarter of 2013, as average assets under our management increased $70.7 billion to $601.0 billion. The average annualized effective fee rate earned on our assets under management was 47.4 basis points during the first quarter of 2013, which is slightly higher than the 47.2 basis points earned during the full-year 2012. We waived $10.9 million in money market advisory fees in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $2.1 million from the comparable 2012 quarter, in order to maintain a positive yield for fund investors. These fee waivers represent about 2% of total investment advisory revenues earned during the first quarter of 2013. We have waived fees from each of our money market mutual funds and trusts, which have combined net assets of $15.3 billion at March 31, 2013. We expect that these fee waivers will continue for the remainder of 2013.

Net revenues increased $87.0 million, or 11.9%, to $815.7 million in the first quarter of 2013. Operating expenses were $443.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $30.6 million or 7.4%. Overall, net operating income for the first quarter of 2013 increased $56.4 million to $372.6 million. The increase in our average assets under management and corresponding investment advisory revenues from higher market valuations lifted our operating margin in the first quarter of 2013 to 45.7% compared to 43.4% in the 2012 period. Net income increased $44.4 million, or 22.5%, to $241.9 million, in the first quarter of 2013 and our diluted earnings per share on our common stock increased 21.3% to $.91 from the $.75 earned in the first quarter of 2012.

Revenues

Investment advisory revenues earned from the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the U.S. were $490.6 million, an increase of $64.7 million, or 15.2%, on higher average assets under management. Average mutual fund assets under management in the first quarter of 2013 were $364.8 billion, an increase of 16.8% from the average in the first quarter of 2012. Mutual fund assets at March 31, 2013, were $377.0 billion, an increase of $30.1 billion from the end of 2012. Net cash inflows into the mutual funds during the first quarter of 2013 were $7.6 billion, including $5.2 billion into the stock and blended asset funds, $2.5 billion into the bond funds, and net outflows of $.1 billion from the money market funds. These net cash inflows include $2.7 billion originating in the target-date retirement funds, which in turn invest in a broadly diversified portfolio of other Price funds, and automatically rebalance to maintain their specific asset allocation weightings. Market appreciation and income increased mutual fund assets under management by $22.5 billion during the first quarter of 2013.

Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2013 on our other investment portfolios increased $15.2 million compared to the 2012 quarter to $212.3 million, as average assets under management increased $18.3 billion, or 8.4%, to $236.2 billion. Assets under management in these portfolios at March 31, 2013, were $240.4 billion, an increase of $10.5 billion from the end of 2012. Market appreciation and income of $14.8 billion was partially offset by $4.3 billion in net cash outflows during the first quarter of 2013. These net cash outflows were primarily from certain institutional clients outside the United States who changed their investment objectives.

Administrative fee revenues increased $3.4 million to $86.3 million in the first quarter of 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to transfer agent servicing activities provided to the mutual funds and their investors. Changes in administrative fee revenues are generally offset by similar changes in related operating expenses that are incurred to provide services to the funds and their investors.

Distribution and servicing fee revenues earned from 12b-1 plans of the Advisor, R, and variable annuity class shares of our sponsored funds and portfolios increased $4.0 million from the first quarter of 2012 on greater average assets under management in these share classes. The 12b-1 fees earned are offset entirely by the costs paid to third-party intermediaries who source these assets. These costs are reported as distribution and servicing costs on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Operating expenses

Compensation and related costs were $279.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $18.4 million, or 7.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2012. The largest part of the increase is attributable to $7.5 million in higher salaries and related benefits, which results from a modest increase in salaries at the beginning of 2013 combined with a 3.2% increase in our average staff size from the first quarter of 2012. The 2013 costs also include a $7.0 million increase in the interim accrual for our annual variable compensation programs, higher costs attributable to an increased use of temporary personnel to support our business growth and higher other employee-related costs. At March 31, 2013, we employed 5,408 associates.

Occupancy and facility costs together with depreciation and amortization expense were $54.5 million in the first quarter of 2013, up $5.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2012. The change is primarily a result of costs incurred to expand our facilities around the world as well as update our technology capabilities, including related maintenance programs, to meet increasing business demands.

Other operating expenses increased $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2013, to $58.0 million, due primarily to higher costs incurred to provide our defined contribution recordkeeping services.

Non-operating investment income

Our non-operating investment income, which includes the recognition of investment gains and losses, was up $13.2 million from the first quarter of 2012, including $11.4 million in gains realized from rebalancing our sponsored fund portfolio. The balance of the increase is primarily attributable to higher gains recognized in the first quarter of 2013 on our other investments.

Provision for income taxes

The firm's effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 of 38.1% is lower than the 38.4% effective income tax rate for the full year 2012 due to certain adjustments made in the 2013 quarter for prior year tax accruals. We currently estimate our effective tax rate for the full year 2013 will be 38.3%. Our effective income tax rate reflects the relative contribution of pre-tax income generated by our non-U.S. subsidiaries that are subject to tax rates lower than our U.S. rates. Changes in the relative

Page 16

contribution of pre-tax income from U.S. and non-U.S. sources or changes in tax rates in the U.S. or relevant non-U.S. jurisdictions may affect our effective income tax rate and overall net income in the future.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY.

Operating activities during the first quarter of 2013 provided cash flows of $459.4 million, up $193.6 million from the 2012 period, including a $44.4 million increase in net income. Timing differences in the cash settlement of our assets and liabilities increased our operating cash flows by $80.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2012. The first quarter of 2012 also included $79.0 million in cash outflows for the net purchase of securities held by consolidated sponsored mutual funds to which we provided seed capital at their formation and were deemed to have a controlling interest. These operating cash flow increases are offset by the add back of $11.4 million in gains recognized on the sale of certain sponsored fund investments as the related cash flow activity is reflected in net cash used in investing activities. Our interim operating cash flows do not include the cash impact of variable compensation that is accrued throughout the year before being substantially paid out in December.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $31.6 million in the first quarter of 2013, up $22.3 million from the comparable 2012 period. We made $10.0 million more net investments in our sponsored mutual funds and increased our capital spending by $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared with the 2012 period. The first quarter of 2012 also included $12.4 million more in net cash proceeds from the debt securities held by our savings bank subsidiary.

Net cash used in financing activities was $21.0 million in the first quarter of 2013, down $29.9 million from the comparable 2012 period. Cash proceeds from option exercises increased $46.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the 2012 quarter as the higher market valuations of our common stock experienced in the 2013 quarter led our associates to exercise their options. These cash proceeds were partially offset by the change in customer deposits at our savings bank subsidiary during the first quarter of 2013 and the $11.9 million increase in dividends paid. The increase in dividends paid in the first quarter of 2013 is primarily due to the $.04 increase in our quarterly per-share dividend.

Our cash and mutual fund investments at March 31, 2013 were $2.5 billion, and we have no debt. We anticipate property and equipment expenditures for the full year 2013 to be about $125 million and expect to fund them from our cash balances. We generally repurchase shares of our common stock over time to offset the dilution created by our equity-based compensation plans. Given the availability of our financial resources, we do not maintain an available external source of liquidity.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS.

We have considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to our operations and the preparation of our condensed consolidated statements, including that which we have not yet adopted. We do not believe that any such guidance will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operation.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION.

From time to time, information or statements provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price, including those within this report, may contain certain forward-looking information, including information or anticipated information relating to: our revenues, net income and earnings per share on common stock; changes in the amount and composition of our assets under management; our expense levels; our estimated effective income tax rate; and our expectations regarding financial markets, future transactions, investments, capital expenditures, and other market conditions. Readers are cautioned that any forward-looking information provided by or on behalf of T. Rowe Price is not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking information because of various factors including, but not limited to, those discussed below and in Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Form 10-K Annual Report for 2012. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Our future revenues and results of operations will fluctuate primarily due to changes in the total value and composition of assets under our management. Such changes result from many factors including, among other things: cash inflows and outflows in the T. Rowe Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios; fluctuations in global financial markets that result in appreciation or depreciation of the assets under our management; our introduction of new mutual funds and investment portfolios; and changes in retirement savings trends relative to participant-directed investments and defined contribution plans. The ability to attract and retain investors’ assets under our management is dependent on investor sentiment and confidence; the relative investment performance of the Price mutual funds and other managed investment portfolios as compared to competing

Page 17

offerings and market indexes; the ability to maintain our investment management and administrative fees at appropriate levels; competitive conditions in the mutual fund, asset management, and broader financial services sectors; and our level of success in implementing our strategy to expand our business. Our revenues are substantially dependent on fees earned under contracts with the Price funds and could be adversely affected if the independent directors of one or more of the Price funds terminated or significantly altered the terms of the investment management or related administrative services agreements. Non-operating investment income will also fluctuate primarily due to the size of our investments and changes in their market valuations.

Our future results are also dependent upon the level of our expenses, which are subject to fluctuation for the following or other reasons: changes in the level of our advertising expenses in response to market conditions, including our efforts to expand our investment advisory business to investors outside the U.S. and to further penetrate our distribution channels within the U.S.; variations in the level of total compensation expense due to, among other things, bonuses, stock option grants, other incentive awards, changes in our employee count and mix, and competitive factors; any goodwill or investment impairment that may arise; fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our investment in and the costs of our international operations; changes in our effective tax rate; expenses and capital costs, such as technology assets, depreciation, amortization, and research and development, incurred to maintain and enhance our administrative and operating services infrastructure; unanticipated costs that may be incurred to protect investor accounts and the goodwill of our clients; and disruptions of services, including those provided by third parties, such as facilities, communications, power, and the mutual fund transfer agent and accounting systems.

Our business is also subject to substantial governmental regulation, and changes in legal, regulatory, accounting, tax, and compliance requirements may have a substantial effect on our operations and results, including but not limited to effects on costs that we incur and effects on investor interest in mutual funds and investing in general, or in particular classes of mutual funds or other investments.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There has been no material change in the information provided in Item 7A of the Form 10-K Annual Report for 2012.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2013. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2013, are effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including this Form 10-Q quarterly report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2013, and has concluded that there was no change during the first quarter of 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, various claims against us arise in the ordinary course of business, including employment-related claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, the likelihood that an adverse determination in one or more pending claims would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations is remote.


Item 1A.	Risk Factors.

With the exception of the following addition to the list of current and proposed legal or regulatory requirements discussed in Item 1A of our Form 10-K Annual Report for 2012 there have been no material changes in the risk factors previously provided.

As part of the debate in Washington, D.C. related to the economy and the U.S. deficit, there has been increasing focus on the framework of the U.S. retirement system. We could incur increased costs if new regulatory requirements are adopted since retirement plans are a significant part of our client base. Also, other types of retirement accounts invest in our mutual funds. In addition, changes to the current framework may impact our business in other ways. For example, proposals to reduce contributions to Individual Retirement Accounts and Defined Contribution plans for certain individuals, as well as potential changes to Defined Benefit plans, may result in increased plan terminations and reduce our opportunity to manage and service retirement assets.

As previously noted, we cannot predict the nature of future changes to the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to our business, nor the extent of the impacts that will result from current or future proposals. However, any such changes are likely to increase the costs of compliance and the complexity of our operations. They may also result in changes to our product or service offerings. The changing regulatory landscape may also impact a number of our service providers and to the extent such providers alter their services or increase their fees it may impact our expenses or those of the products we offer.


Item 2.	Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

24.2	the making of provision for the payment or withholding of any taxes required to be withheld in accordance with any applicable law in respect of the exercise of the Option or the receipt of the Shares.


24.3	Notwithstanding Section 4(vii) of the Plan, deferral of the individual’s delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to such individual by virtue of the exercise of the Option is disapplied for the purposes of the Sub-Plan in accordance with rule 33.2.

26.3 Meaning of “equivalent”

The New Option shall not be regarded for the purpose of this rule 26 as equivalent to the Option unless:


26.3.1	the New Shares satisfy the conditions in paragraphs 16 to 20 of Schedule 4; and


26.3.2	save for any performance target or other condition imposed on the exercise of the Option, the New Option will be exercisable in the same manner as the Option and subject to the provisions of the Sub-Plan as it had effect immediately before the release of the Option; and

The date of grant of the New Option shall be deemed to be the same as the Date of Grant of the Option.

26.5 Application of Sub-Plan to New Option

In the application of the Sub-Plan to the New Option, where appropriate, references to “Price Group” and “Shares” shall be read as if they were

references to the company to whose shares the New Option relates and the New Shares, respectively, save that in the definition of “Administrator” or associated references, the reference to “Price Group” shall be read as if it were a reference to T. Rowe Price Group, Inc.

27. Rights attaching to Shares issued on exercise of Options

All Shares issued on the exercise of an Option shall, as to any voting, dividend, transfer and other rights, including those arising on a liquidation of Price Group, rank equally in all respects and as one class with the Shares in issue at the date of such exercise save as regards any rights attaching to such Shares by reference to a record date prior to the date of such exercise.

28. Adjustment of Options

28.1

Notwithstanding Sections 4(b)(v) and 10 (a) and (b) of the Plan and any provision in the Notice or the Terms, no substitution shall be made in respect of an Option and no adjustment shall be made to an Option except to take account of a variation in the share capital of Price Group, including but without limitation a capitalisation issue, rights issue, rights offer or bonus issue and a sub-division, consolidation or reduction in the capital of Price Group but excluding a capitalisation issue in substitution for or as an alternative to a cash dividend. In the event of such a variation in the share capital of Price Group, the number of Shares subject to an Option, the description of the Shares, the exercise price, or any one or more of these, may be adjusted in such manner as the Administrator determines.


28.2	An adjustment shall not have effect until the adjustment has been approved by HM Revenue & Customs.

An amendment to a Key Feature following the Approval Date will not have effect until such amendment has been approved by HM Revenue & Customs under Schedule 4.

30. Tax and social security withholding

Alternatively, the Grantee may, by agreement with Price Group, enter into some other arrangement to ensure that such amount is available to it (for example, by authorising the sale of some or all of the Shares subject to his Option and the payment to Price Group or such employing company of the requisite amount out of the proceeds of sale). Where this is the case the Option shall not be treated as

exercised until Price Group determines that such arrangements are satisfactory to it.

30.2

Price Group may, at its discretion, impose requirements for the payment by the Grantee of all or any part of the employer’s National Insurance Contributions liability that may arise as a result of the exercise of his Option (“Employer’s NIC”). Such requirements may include in particular, but not by way of limitation, a determination that the Option may not be exercised unless the Grantee has beforehand paid to Price Group (or, if different, the Grantee’s employing company) an amount sufficient to discharge all or any part of the Employer’s NIC, as appropriate. Alternatively, the Grantee may, by agreement with Price Group enter into some other arrangement to ensure that such amount is available to them or it (for example, by authorising the sale of some or all of the Shares subject to his Option and the payment to Price Group of the requisite amount out of the proceeds of sale). Where this is the case the Option shall not be treated as exercised until Price Group determines that such arrangements are satisfactory to it.

30.3

Price Group may require a Grantee to execute a copy of the Notice or some other document in order to bind himself contractually to any such arrangement as is referred to in rule 30.1 and/or 30.2 and return the executed document to Price Group by a specified date. Failure to return the executed document by the specified date being no more than 30 days after the Date of Grant shall cause the Option to lapse.

31. Exercise of discretion by Administrator

In exercising any discretion which it may have under the Sub-Plan, the Administrator shall act fairly and reasonably.

32. Recoupment Policy

In respect of the application of Price Group’s Recoupment Policy as set out in Section 16(g) of the Plan. Price Group will ensure that, in the event of there being a material restatement of Price Group’s accounts for a period (as confirmed by Price Group’s auditors), Price Group will act fairly and reasonably in determining that had the accounts been correctly stated in the first instance, then the Grantee would not have been granted an Option or would have been granted an Option in respect of fewer Shares, that the Option will lapse to that extent, unless Price Group determines otherwise.

T. ROWE PRICE GROUP, INC. 2012 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

HM REVENUE AND CUSTOMS APPROVED SUB-PLAN FOR THE UK

________________

STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL TERMS

REGARDING AWARDS OF STOCK OPTIONS

(version2C)

___________________

This Statement of Additional Terms Regarding Awards of Stock Options (the “Terms”) and all of the provisions of the HM Revenue and Customs Approved Sub-Plan for the UK (together referred to as the “Sub-Plan”) under the provisions of the T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), along with all provisions of the Plan as are not otherwise disapplied by the Sub-Plan, are incorporated into your stock option award, the specifics of which are described on the “Notice of Grant of Stock Option Award” (the “Notice”) that you received. Once you have accepted the Notice in accordance with the instructions set forth thereon,, the Plan, the Sub-Plan and the Notice, together, constitute a binding and enforceable contract respecting your stock option award. That contract is referred to in this document as the “Agreement.”

1. Terminology. Words and expressions not defined in the Terms have the same meanings as are given to them in the Plan and/or the Sub-Plan. Further capitalized words and phrases used in these Terms are defined in the Glossary at the end of this document or the first place such word or phrase appears in this document.

2. Vesting.

(a) Vested Status upon Grant Date. All of the Options are non vested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date. For clarity, as used in this Agreement, the term “vest” means that the Options become exercisable for the purchase of Common Stock. The fact that an Option has become vested does not mean or otherwise indicate that you have an unconditional or non forfeitable right to such Option. A vested Option remains subject to the terms, conditions and forfeiture provisions provided for in the Plan, the Sub-Plan and in this Agreement.

(b) Vesting Schedule. So long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the applicable date upon which vesting is scheduled to occur, the Options will vest and become exercisable on the vesting dates as set forth in the correlating Notice.

(i) If, as of the date on which your Termination of Service occurs, you have at least 35 years of Credited Service and at least ten years of that Credited Service is attributable to Service with the Company (as determined by the Committee), including Service with any successor to the Company, then, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the then-unvested Options that have not been previously forfeited and which

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

are scheduled to vest within the 36-month period immediately following your Termination of Service will vest and become exercisable on their scheduled vesting dates set forth in the correlating Notice notwithstanding the fact that your Service has terminated.

(ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(c)(i) to the contrary, , your unvested Options will be immediately forfeited for no consideration, no further vesting will accrue and no shares of Common Stock will be delivered in respect thereof, if you breach any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 6.

(d) Vesting upon Death or Disability. All of the Options that have not already vested or been previously forfeited will vest and become exercisable upon your death or Termination of Service due to your Total and Permanent Disability.

(e) Double-trigger Vesting. If, coincident with or during the 18-month period following the effective date of a Change in Control, your Service is terminated either (i) by the Company or a successor to the Company other than for Cause, Total and Permanent Disability or death or (ii) by you for Good Reason, then all of the Options that have not already vested or been previously forfeited or terminated in connection with the Change in Control will vest and become exercisable upon such Termination of Service.

3. Exercise of Options.

(a) Exercisability. None of the Options are exercisable as of the Grant Date. The Options will become exercisable in installments in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the correlating Notice, so long as you are in the continuous Service of the Company from the Grant Date through the applicable vesting dates or as otherwise provided in Section 2 above.

(b) Option Exercise Rights.

(i) You may exercise the Options, to the extent they have become exercisable, on any business day on or before the Expiration Date or the earlier termination of the Options, unless otherwise provided under applicable law. For this purpose, a business day is any day, other than a weekend or U.S. federal holiday, on which Price Group’s principal executive offices (in Baltimore, Maryland -- Pratt Street) are open for business. You are not required to exercise your Options when they vest. Vested Options will accumulate and be exercisable by you, in whole or in part, at any time before the Options expire or are otherwise forfeited or terminated.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Committee determines that the delivery of Common Stock under the Plan, the Sub-Plan or this Agreement is or may be unlawful under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or federal, state or foreign (non-United States) securities laws, your right to exercise the Options or receive Common Stock pursuant to the Options will be suspended until the Committee determines that such delivery is lawful. Likewise, if at any time the Committee determines that the delivery of Common Stock under the Plan, the Sub-Plan or this Agreement is or may violate the rules of the national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed for trade, your right to exercise the Options or receive

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

Common Stock pursuant to the Options will be suspended until the Committee determines that such exercise or delivery would not violate such rules. Any suspension of your right to exercise the Options under this paragraph will not extend the Expiration Date of the Options and your Options could expire unexercisable during such a suspension.

(iii) Section 4 below describes certain limitations on exercise of the Options that apply in the event of your death, Total and Permanent Disability, or Termination of Service which limitations could terminate your right to exercise the Options earlier than the Expiration Date.

(iv) You may exercise the Options only in multiples of whole shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued under the Options.

(c) Exercise Procedure. In order to initiate an exercise of your Options, you must deliver the following items to the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group in the CFO-Finance Department in the Baltimore, Maryland – Pratt Street office:

(i) an exercise notice, in such manner and form (including, without limitation, electronic on-line format) as the Committee may require from time to time, that specifies the number of shares of Common Stock you then desire to purchase under the Options and your method of payment of the aggregate purchase price; and

(ii) full payment of the aggregate purchase price for the shares specified in the exercise notice or properly executed, irrevocable instructions, in such manner and form as the Committee may require from time to time, to effectuate a broker-assisted cashless exercise, each in accordance with Section 3(e) of this Agreement.

(d) Date Exercise becomes Effective.

(i) Your exercise will become effective (the “Exercise Date”) as follows, provided that such exercise otherwise is permitted under and complies with all applicable laws:

(A) on the date on which both the exercise notice and payment of the aggregate purchase price is received by the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group, if such items are received by 5:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time on a business day;

(B) on the first business day after the date on which both the exercise notice and payment of the aggregate purchase price is received by the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group, if such items are received after 5:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time or are received on a day that is not a business day; or

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

(C) on the date on which the sale of shares is executed via a broker-assisted cashless exercise, as confirmed by the brokerage firm, if the exercise notice is accompanied by instructions to effectuate a broker-assisted cashless exercise.

(ii) You are responsible for ensuring that your exercise notice and payment of the aggregate purchase price or instructions to effectuate a broker-assisted cashless exercise are received by the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group with sufficient time to enable the Exercise Date to occur in accordance with the foregoing rules before the Options expire, are forfeited or otherwise terminated. Because The Nasdaq Stock Market closes at 4:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time, any broker-assisted cashless exercise instruction received by the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group after 4:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Time cannot be processed until the next business day on which The Nasdaq Stock Market is open for trading. If your broker-assisted cashless exercise instruction results in the sale of shares over a number of days, each day on which a sale occurs will constitute the Exercise Date of the Option with respect to the shares sold on such day.

(e) Method of Payment.

(i) You may pay the aggregate purchase price for the shares specified in the exercise notice by:

(A) delivering cash, wire or fund transfer, check, bank draft, postal or express money order payable to the order of the Company, or other cash equivalent acceptable to the Committee in its discretion, in each such case in currency acceptable to the Committee;

(B) executing a broker-assisted cashless exercise in accordance with Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System through a brokerage firm designated or approved by the Committee, under which the broker is irrevocably instructed to deliver to the Company on your behalf an amount, in cash or acceptable cash equivalents, sufficient to pay the aggregate purchase price for the shares of Common Stock you then desire to purchase under the Options (plus applicable Withholding Taxes, if any), and the Company is instructed to deliver the shares to the broker upon receipt of such amount;

(f) Tax Withholding. By accepting the Options, you agree to make adequate provision for foreign (non-United States), federal, state and local taxes and social insurance contributions (collectively, “Withholding Taxes”) required by law to be withheld, if any, which arise in connection with the Options. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you (including withholding the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock under the Options) the amount of any Withholding Taxes required by law to be withheld as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of the Options, in whole or in part, or as otherwise may be required by applicable law; provided, however, that the value of the shares of Common Stock withheld may not exceed, by more than a fractional

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

share, the statutory minimum withholding amount required by law. In lieu of such deduction, the Company may require you to make a cash payment to the Company equal to the amount required to be withheld. If you do not make such payment when requested, the Company may refuse to issue any Common Stock or deliver any stock certificate under this Agreement or otherwise release for transfer any such shares until arrangements satisfactory to the Company for such payment have been made. The Company may, in its sole discretion, permit or require you to satisfy, in whole or in part, any Withholding Tax obligation which may arise in connection with the Options by having the Company withhold from the shares to be issued upon exercise that number of shares, which have a fair market value equal to no more than the amount necessary to satisfy the statutory minimum withholding amount due.

(g) Issuance of Shares upon Exercise. The Company will issue to you the shares of Common Stock underlying the Options you exercise as soon as practicable after the exercise date, subject to the Company’s receipt of the aggregate purchase price and the requisite Withholding Taxes, if any. Unless and until you request the Company to deliver a share certificate to you, or deliver shares electronically or in certificate form to your designated broker, bank or nominee on your behalf, the Company will retain the shares that you purchased through exercise of the Options in uncertificated book entry form. Any share certificates delivered will, unless the shares of Common Stock are registered or an exemption from registration is available under applicable federal and state law, bear a legend restricting transferability of such shares of Common Stock. If you purchase shares of Common Stock under Options that qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, the Company may take reasonable measures, which you agree to abide by when accepting the correlating Notice, to track the ownership of such shares until the date on which a sale or disposition of the shares by you would no longer constitute a disqualifying disposition within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

4. Forfeiture of Unvested Options upon Termination of Service.

(a) Termination before Accruing 35 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If your Service ceases for any reason before you have at least 35 years of Credited Service with at least ten years of Credited Service that is attributable to Service with, including Service with any successor to the Company, all Options that are not then vested or eligible for future vesting, after giving effect to the applicable provisions of Section 2 above, will be immediately forfeited upon such cessation for no consideration.

(b) Termination after Accruing 35 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If, as of the date on which your Termination of Service occurs, you have at least 35 years of Credited Service and at least ten years of that Credited Service is attributable to Service with the Company including Service with any successor to the Company, then Options that are not then vested, after giving effect to the applicable provisions of Section 2 above, and which are scheduled to vest on vesting dates set forth in the correlating Notice that fall beyond the 36‑month period immediately following your Termination of Service, will be immediately forfeited upon such cessation for no consideration and Section 2(c) will apply to the then-unvested Options which are scheduled to vest within the 36-month period immediately following your Termination of Service.

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

5. Exercise Periods upon Termination of Service. The period during which you may exercise Options after your Service with the Company terminates is dependent upon your cumulative years of Service credit with the Company, including Service with any successor to the Company, as of the date on which your Service terminates, as follows:

(a) Termination before Accruing 30 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If, as of the date of your Termination of Service, you do not have at least 30 years of Credited Service with at least ten years of your Credited Service being attributable to Service with the Company, including Service with any successor to the Company, your vested Options will terminate 90 days after the date on which your Service terminates, but in no event later than the Expiration Date.

(b) Termination after Accruing 30 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If, as of the date of your Termination of Service, you have at least 30, but not 33, years of Credited Service and at least ten years of that Credited Service is attributable to Service with the Company including Service with any successor to the Company, your vested Options will terminate 13 months after the date on which your Service terminates, but in no event later than the Expiration Date.

(c) Termination after Accruing 33 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If, as of the date of your Termination of Service, you have at least 33, but not 35, years of Credited Service and at least ten years of that Credited Service is attributable to Service with the Company including Service with any successor to the Company, your vested Options will terminate 36 months after the date on which your Service terminates, but in no event later than the Expiration Date.

(d) Termination after Accruing 35 Years of Credited Service with 10 Years of Service with the Company. If, as of the date of your Termination of Service, you have at least 35 years of Credited Service and at least ten years of that Credited Service is attributable to Service with the Company including Service with any successor to the Company, your vested Options determined as of the date of your Termination of Service will terminate 36 months after the date on which your Service terminates, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. Furthermore, any Options which become vested pursuant to Section 2(c) above within the 36-month period following the date on which your Service terminates will terminate 39 months after the date on which your Service terminates (i.e., the standard 36-month period plus three additional months), but in no event later than the Expiration Date.

(e) Disability. If your Termination of Service is due to your Total and Permanent Disability, your vested Options will terminate (i) 13 months after the date on which your Service terminates or, if later, (ii) upon the date specified in Section 5(c) or 5(d), whichever subsection is applicable (if any) based on your accrued Credited Service when your Termination of Service occurs, but in no event later than the Expiration Date.

(f) Death. If your death occurs prior to your Termination of Service or during any of the periods described in Sections 5(a), 5(b), 5(c), 5(d) or 5(e) above during which your vested Options remained exercisable by you, then your estate, personal representative or any beneficiary, heir or legatee to whom the Options have been transferred will be permitted to exercise such vested Options during the 12-month period immediately following your date of

6. Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Termination of Vesting/No Extension of Exercise Period. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2 or Section 5 to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any Prohibited Action set forth in Section 6(b), the following shall occur with respect to your Options: (i) no further Options will become vested and any then-unvested Options will terminate immediately, and (ii) all Options that were vested as of the date on which your Termination of Service occurred and any Options which became vested pursuant to Section 2(c) after your Termination of Service occurred shall terminate 90 days after the date on which your Termination of Service occurred or on the date on which the Prohibited Action occurred if later, but in no event later than the Expiration Date. For clarity, the Options described in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence will terminate immediately if a Prohibited Action occurs later than the 90th day after the date on which your Termination of Service occurred.

(b) Prohibited Actions. The following actions are considered Prohibited Actions and subject to the consequences set forth in Section 6(a) above, whether engaged in by you directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, or in any other capacity:

(i) engaging in any Competing Business. Competing Business shall be defined as the business of investment advisory services to individual and/or institutional investors, retirement plan services, discount brokerage, trust services, and any other business which is competitive with the business activities of the Company;

(ii) soliciting, encouraging, or inducing any customers or clients of the Company who were current or prospective customers or clients as of the date on which your Termination of Service occurred, to terminate or reduce his, her or its relationship with the Company or not to proceed with, or enter into, any business relationship with the Company, or otherwise interfering with any such business relationship with the Company, including by encouraging or suggesting any investment management client of the Company (A) to withdraw any funds for which the Company provides investment management or advisory services, or (B) not to engage the Company to provide investment management or advisory services for any funds;

(iii) (A) soliciting, encouraging, or inducing any officer, director, employee, agent, partner, consultant or independent contractor of the Company to terminate, modify or reduce his or her relationship with the Company, (B) hiring, employing, supervising, managing or engaging any such individual, or (C) otherwise attempting to disrupt or interfere with the Company’s relationship with any such individual;

(iv) using, reproducing, or disclosing any Confidential Information of the Company. “Confidential Information” shall be defined as client and customer lists, information with respect to the name, address, contact persons or requirements of any customer or client, other information relating to clients and prospective clients from whom the Company has solicited business or plans to solicit business, information relating to business plans and business that is conducted or anticipated to be conducted, research, technology, computer software, processes, products, pricing, costs, business methods, business objectives or strategies, marketing plans and finances;

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

(v) pleading guilty or nolo contendere (or a similar plea) to, or being convicted of, (A) a felony (or its equivalent in a non-United States jurisdiction) or (B) other conduct of a criminal nature that has or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the reputation or standing in the community of the Company, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, or that legally prohibits you from working for the Company;

(vi) breaching a regulatory rule that adversely affects your ability to perform your employment duties to the Company in any material respect; and

(vii) failing, in any material respect, to (A) perform your employment duties, (B) comply with the applicable policies of the Company, (C) follow reasonable directions received from the Company or (D) comply with covenants contained in any contract with the Company to which you are a party.

(c) Blue Pencil. If any of the provisions or terms of this Section 6 is construed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, it shall not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall be given full force and effect without regard to the invalid provision. Any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be reformed to the maximum time, geographic and/or customer limitations permitted by the applicable laws, so as to be valid and enforceable.

(d) Notification To Company. For as long as you have vested Options that have not been exercised, you covenant and agree that you will disclose to the Company the identity of any new employer within two business days of being employed or engaged by such new employer, and at the time that you seek to exercise any Options you will provide to the Company information sufficient to confirm that you have not engaged in any Prohibited Actions.

7. Nontransferability of Options. These Options are nontransferable otherwise than by last will and testament or the laws of descent and distribution and, during your lifetime, the Options may be exercised only by you or, during the period you are under a legal disability, by your guardian or legal representative. The Options and, before exercise, the shares of Common Stock subject to purchase thereunder, may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, subjected to any “put equivalent position,” “call equivalent position” (as each preceding term is defined by Rule 16(a)-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), or short position, or disposed of in any way (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

8. Status for Tax Purposes.

(a) Approved Options. The Options are approved stock options that have been granted under the Sub-Plan approved by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC). You must comply with the provisions of Section 3(f) of this Agreement with respect to any Withholding Tax obligations that arise as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of the Options.

(b) Nonqualified Options. If the correlating Notice provides that the Options are not intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, this Agreement shall be so construed. In such case, by accepting the Options you acknowledge that, if you are as of the Grant Date, or subsequently become prior to exercise, a U.S. taxpayer for federal tax purposes, then upon exercise of the Options, you will recognize ordinary income

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value, as measured on the exercise date, of the shares of Common Stock purchased over the aggregate purchase price paid. If you are a taxpayer in any other jurisdiction, the taxation of your Options may be different.

(c) Incentive Stock Options. If the correlating Notice provides that the Options are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code and you are as of the Grant Date, or subsequently become prior to exercise, a U.S. taxpayer for federal tax purposes, then this Agreement shall be so construed to the fullest extent permitted by Section 422 of the Code, including the application of the limit provided by Section 422(d) of the Code. The Company, however, does not warrant any particular tax consequences of the Options. Section 422 of the Code provides limitations and other requirements, not set forth in this Agreement, respecting the treatment of the Options as incentive stock options. You should consult with your personal tax advisors in this regard. The quantity limitation and employment requirement pertaining to incentive stock options are outlined below.

(i) Quantity Limitation. Pursuant to Section 422(d) of the Code, the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the Grant Date) of shares of Common Stock with respect to which all incentive stock options first become exercisable by you in any calendar year under the Plan or any other plan of the Company (and its parent and subsidiary corporations, within the meaning of Section 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, as may exist from time to time) may not exceed $100,000 or such other amount as may be permitted from time to time under Section 422 of the Code. To the extent that such aggregate fair market value exceeds $100,000 or such other applicable amount in any calendar year, such stock options will be treated as nonqualified stock options with respect to the amount of aggregate fair market value thereof that exceeds the Code Section 422(d) limit. For this purpose, the incentive stock options will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Company may designate the shares of Common Stock that are to be treated as stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options and the shares of Common Stock that are to be treated as stock acquired pursuant to nonqualified stock options by issuing separate certificates for such shares and identifying the certificates as such in the stock transfer records of the Company or by any other appropriate notation in the records of the Company.

(ii) Employment Requirement. Except with respect to exercise after your death or Termination of Service due to Total and Permanent Disability, at all times during the period beginning with the Grant Date of an incentive stock option and ending on the day three months before the date of exercise, you must be an employee of Price Group or a subsidiary, as that term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, in order for the Option to be treated as an incentive stock option for U.S. federal tax purposes. Therefore, any part of the Options designated as intended to be incentive stock options which is not exercised either during your Service with Price Group or a subsidiary or within three months after your Termination of Service with Price Group or a subsidiary will not be treated as an incentive stock option for U.S. federal tax purposes when exercised. Similarly, if the entity with which you are employed ceases to be a subsidiary of Price Group, as that term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, then the Options will be treated as nonqualified stock options unless exercised within three months of such cessation.

9. Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

(a) Mandatory Adjustments. Subject to rule 28 of the Sub-Plan, in the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue, rights offer or bonus issue and a sub-division, consolidation or reduction in the capital of Price Group but excluding a capitalisation issue in substitution for or as an alternative to a cash dividend (each, a “Share Change”), the Committee shall make equitable and appropriate proportionate adjustments to the number of outstanding Options, the purchase price per share, and the number of Options eligible to vest on each subsequent vesting date under the vesting schedule set forth on the Notice to reflect such event; provided, however, that any fractional Options resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated. Adjustments under this paragraph will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.

(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, all of the Options shall terminate upon the dissolution or liquidation of Price Group.

(c) Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Plan or the Sub-Plan to the contrary, in the event that a Change in Control occurs, outstanding Options will terminate upon the effective time of such Change in Control unless provision is made in connection with the transaction for the exchange of Options in accordance with Rule 26.1 of the Sub-Plan. In the event of such termination of the outstanding Options, (i) the outstanding Options that will terminate upon the effective time of the Change in Control shall, immediately before the effective time of the Change in Control, become fully exercisable, (ii) you will be permitted, immediately before the Change in Control, to exercise the Options, and (iii)any such Options that you do not exercise will terminate upon the effective time of the Change of Control.. Implementation of the provisions of the immediately foregoing sentence shall be conditioned upon consummation of the Change in Control. In the event that provision is made in connection with the Change of Control transaction for the exchange of Options in accordance with Rule 26.1 of the Sub-Plan, if you do not exchange your Option within the period set out in Rule 26.2 of the Sub-Plan, it will lapse at the end of that period.

10. Non-Guarantee of Employment. Nothing in the Plan, the Sub-Plan or this Agreement shall alter your employment status with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any Options or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan or the Sub-Plan.

11. Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to purchase under the Options until such shares have been issued to you upon the due exercise of the Options. No adjustment will be made for dividends or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued to you.

12. The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Options will not affect in any way the right or power of Price Group or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

Common Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

13. Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently made or given if hand delivered or mailed by certified mail, addressed to you at the address contained in the records of the Company, or addressed to the Committee, care of the Company for the attention of its Payroll and Stock Transaction Group in the CFO-Finance Department at the Company’s principal executive office or, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties.

14. Electronic Delivery of Documents.

(a) Methods of Delivery. The Company may from time to time electronically deliver, via e-mail or posting on the Company’s website, these Terms, information with respect to the Plan, the Sub-Plan or the Options, any amendments to the Agreement, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders. You may receive from the Company, at no cost to you, a paper copy of any electronically delivered documents by contacting the Payroll and Stock Transaction Group in the CFO-Finance Department in the Baltimore, Maryland – Pratt Street office or by telephone, at 410-345-7716.

(b) Consent and Acknowledgment. By your accepting the Notice correlating to these Terms, you (i) consent to the electronic delivery of this Agreement, all information with respect to the Plan, the Sub-Plan and the Options and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders; (ii) acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to you by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing; (iii) further acknowledge that you may revoke your consent to the electronic delivery of documents at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail; and (iv) further acknowledge that you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents.

15. Recoupment. The terms and conditions of the Company’s Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation, adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company effective April 14, 2010, as amended from time to time or any successor thereto (the “Recoupment Policy”), are incorporated by reference into this Agreement and shall apply to your Options if you on the Grant Date are or subsequently become an executive officer or other senior executive who is subject to the Recoupment Policy. In the event of there being a material restatement of Price Group’s accounts for a period (as confirmed by Price Group’s auditors), Price Group will ensure that it acts fairly and reasonably if it determines that had the accounts been correctly stated in the first instance, then you would not have been granted an Option or would have been granted an Option in respect of fewer Shares, that the Option will lapse to that extent, unless Price Group determines otherwise.

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the correlating Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the Options awarded hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the acceptance of the Notice correlating to

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

these Terms with respect to the Options awarded hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.

17. Amendment. Notwithstanding Section 7(c) of the Plan, no amendments to a Key Feature of the Sub-Plan, whether taking the form of an amendment of the Plan, the Sub-Plan or these Terms, shall take effect until they have been approved by HM Revenue and Customs. Subject to this, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Sub-Plan, the Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of this Agreement, but no such amendment shall materially impair your rights with respect to your Options without your consent, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or the Agreement to comply with applicable law, applicable rule of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading, or to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences for you or the Company or any of its Affiliates. The Company shall give written notice to you of any such alteration or amendment of this Agreement by the Committee as promptly as practical after the adoption thereof. The foregoing shall not restrict the ability of you and the Company by mutual consent to alter or amend this Agreement in any manner which is consistent with the Sub-Plan and approved by the Committee and the Board of HM Revenue and Customs.

18. Conformity with the Plan and the Sub-Plan. These Terms are intended to conform with, and are subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan and the Sub-Plan.

A copy of the Sub-Plan is available at https://home2.troweprice.com/tsso/tssoweb/SSOServlet or in hard copy upon request to the Company’s Payroll and Stock Transaction Group in the CFO-Finance Department in the Baltimore, Maryland – Pratt Street office or by telephone, at 410-345-7716.

19. Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Committee relating to this Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. As a condition of this Agreement, you agree that you will not bring any action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement in any court other than a federal or state court in the districts which include Baltimore, Maryland, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court located in the district which includes Baltimore, Maryland or any state court in the district which includes Baltimore, Maryland. You further agree that you will not deny or attempt to defeat such personal jurisdiction or object to venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court.

20. Resolution of Disputes. Any dispute or disagreement which shall arise under, or as a result of, or pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee in good faith in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion, and any such determination or any other determination by the Committee under or pursuant to this Agreement and any interpretation by the Committee of the terms of this Agreement, will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons affected thereby. You agree that before you may bring any legal action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement you will first exhaust your administrative remedies before the Committee. You further agree that in the event that the Committee does not resolve any dispute or disagreement arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement to your satisfaction, no legal action may be

commenced or maintained relating to this Agreement more than 24 months after the Committee’s decision.

21. Preemption of Applicable Laws or Regulations. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if, at any time specified herein for the issue of shares to you, any law, regulation or requirements of any governmental authority having jurisdiction in the premises shall require either the Company or you to take any action in connection with the shares then to be issued, the issue of such shares will be deferred until such action shall have been taken.

22. 409A Savings Clause. This Agreement and the Options awarded hereunder are intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Options shall be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with this intent. Nothing in the Plan, the Sub-Plan or this Agreement shall be construed as including any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise of the Options. Should any provision of this Agreement or the Options be found not to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, it may be modified and given effect, in the sole discretion of the Committee and without requiring your consent, in such manner as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with, or to effectuate an exemption from, Section 409A of the Code. The preceding provisions shall not be construed as a guarantee or warranty by the Company of any particular tax effect of the Options.

23. Service and Employment Acknowledgments.

EAST\47801540.7 5/21/12

Sub-Plan or your acquisition or sale of the Shares underlying the Options; and (x) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if the value of the Options or the underlying Shares decreases and in consideration for the grant of the Options you irrevocably release the Company from any claim or entitlement to compensation or damages that does arise in connection with the Options.

24. Data Privacy Consent. For purposes of the implementation, administration and management of the Options and the Plan (or the Sub-Plan) or the effectuation of any acquisition, equity or debt financing, joint venture, merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets or other similar corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”), you explicitly and unambiguously consent, by accepting the Notice, to the collection, receipt, use, retention and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors or any potential party to a potential Corporate Transaction. You understand that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, employee number, employment status, social insurance number, tax identification number, date of birth, nationality, job title or duties, salary and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes and Options awarded, cancelled, vested and unvested) is held by the Company and may be transferred to any broker designated by the Committee or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Options, the Plan or the Sub-Plan or the effectuation of a Corporate Transaction and you expressly authorize such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data, in electronic or other form, by the recipient(s) for these purposes.

ROWE PRICE GROUP REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2013 RESULTS Assets Under Management Increase to $617.4 Billion BALTIMORE (April 24, 2013) - T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (NASDAQ-GS: TROW) today reported its 2013 first quarter results, including net revenues of $815.7 million, net income of $241.9 million, and diluted earnings per common share of $.91. On a comparable basis, net revenues were $728.7 million, net income was $197.5 million, and diluted earnings per common share was $.75 in the first quarter of 2012. Investment advisory revenues for the first quarter of 2013 increased $79.9 million to $702.9 million from the comparable 2012 period, as average assets under management were up $70.7 billion, or 13%. Assets under management at March 31, 2013 totaled a record $617.4 billion, including $377.0 billion in T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States, and $240.4 billion in other managed investment portfolios. Net cash inflows during the first quarter of 2013 of $3.3 billion and market appreciation and income of $37.3 billion increased assets under management $40.6 billion from $576.8 billion at December 31, 2012. The firm’s target-date retirement portfolios were the source of $3.8 billion of the firm's net cash flows in the first quarter of 2013, with assets under management at March 31, 2013 totaling $98.4 billion, including $88.1 billion in target-date retirement funds and $10.3 billion in target- date retirement trusts. From an investment performance standpoint, 73% of the T. Rowe Price mutual funds across their share classes outperformed their comparable Lipper averages on a total return basis for the three- year period ended March 31, 2013, 81% outperformed for the five-year period, 80% outperformed for the 10-year period, and 66% outperformed for the one-year period. In addition, T. Rowe Price stock, bond and blended asset funds that ended the quarter with an overall rating of four or five stars from Morningstar account for 76% of the firm’s rated funds’ assets under management. The firm’s target-date retirement funds continue to deliver very attractive long- term performance, with 100% of these funds outperforming their comparable Lipper averages on a total return basis for the three- and five-year periods ended March 31, 2013.

2 Financial Highlights Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2013 from the T. Rowe Price mutual funds distributed in the United States were $490.6 million, an increase of $64.7 million, or 15%, from the comparable 2012 quarter. Average mutual fund assets under management in the first quarter of 2013 were $364.8 billion, an increase of 17% from the average for the first quarter of 2012. Money market advisory fees voluntarily waived by the firm to maintain positive yields for fund investors in the first quarter of 2013 were $10.9 million, an increase of $2.1 million from the comparable 2012 quarter. The firm expects that it will continue to voluntarily waive such advisory fees for the remainder of the year. Mutual fund assets at March 31, 2013 were $377.0 billion, an increase of $30.1 billion from December 31, 2012. Net cash inflows for the first quarter of 2013 were $7.6 billion, including $5.2 billion into stock and blended asset funds, $2.5 billion into bond funds, and net outflows of $.1 billion from money market funds. Market appreciation and income added $22.5 billion in assets during the first quarter of 2013. Investment advisory revenues earned in the first quarter of 2013 on the other investment portfolios were $212.3 million, an increase of $15.2 million from the comparable 2012 quarter. Average assets under management increased $18.3 billion, or 8%, to $236.2 billion. Ending assets in these portfolios at March 31, 2013 were $240.4 billion, an increase of $10.5 billion from December 31, 2012. Market appreciation and income of $14.8 billion during the first quarter of 2013 was partially offset by net cash outflows of $4.3 billion. These net cash outflows were primarily from certain institutional clients outside the United States who changed their investment objectives. Investors domiciled outside the United States accounted for about 8.5% of the firm’s assets under management at March 31, 2013. Operating expenses were $443.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, up $30.6 million from the comparable 2012 quarter due primarily to increases in compensation and related costs, distribution and servicing costs, occupancy and facility costs and depreciation. The increase in compensation and related costs of $18.4 million is primarily attributable to higher salaries, an increase in the interim accrual for year-end bonus compensation, and an increase in temporary personnel to meet business demands. The firm has increased its average staff size by 3.2% from the first quarter of 2012, and employed 5,408 associates at March 31, 2013. Occupancy and facility costs, together with depreciation and amortization expense, were $54.5 million in the first quarter of 2013, up $5.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2012. The change includes the added costs incurred to expand our facilities around the world, as well as update our technology capabilities to meet increasing business demands.

3 Net non-operating investment income in the first quarter of 2013 increased $13.2 million from the 2012 quarter, primarily due to $11.4 million in gains realized from rebalancing our sponsored funds portfolio. The firm’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 of 38.1% is lower than the 38.4% effective tax rate for the full-year 2012 due to certain adjustments made in the 2013 quarter for prior year tax accruals. The firm estimates its effective tax rate for 2013 will be 38.3%. T. Rowe Price remains debt-free with ample liquidity, including cash and sponsored portfolio investment holdings of $2.5 billion. The firm currently expects total capital expenditures for property and equipment for 2013 to be approximately $125 million, which will be funded from operating resources. Management Commentary James A.C. Kennedy, the company's chief executive officer and president, commented: “U.S. equity markets started the year strongly, as enhanced confidence in the U.S. economy offset ongoing eurozone concerns and tighter U.S. fiscal policy. Non-U.S. developed equity markets were more subdued, while returns for U.S. bonds were generally flat amid the growing appetite for riskier assets. Overall, the aggregate market appreciation, combined with net cash inflows, boosted the firm's ending and quarterly average assets under management to record highs. “The U.S. corporate sector is performing well, with healthy balance sheets and profit margins, and solid earnings growth in a context of modest economic growth. Likewise, U.S. household finances are slowly improving, as is investor sentiment, although the inability of the federal government to deal effectively with its longer-term budget problems remains a continuing drag on the U.S. economic recovery. Continued monetary easing by central banks around the world has reduced downside tail risk, but geopolitics continues to dampen the pace of growth. Economic prospects in Europe remain especially precarious given that region’s struggles with austerity and its ongoing debt crisis. “Following a very strong start to the year, we would caution that the year-to-date pace of U.S. stock market gains is likely to be unsustainable. Even so, in this environment, stock valuations, while not as compelling as they have been, are still attractive relative to the long-term averages and to most fixed income alternatives. Although opportunities still exist in fixed income markets, risks have grown; consequently credit research and selectivity will continue to be critically important.”
