&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOTE&amp;nbsp;11&amp;nbsp;&amp;#151; NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Noncontrolling interests that are not subject to put rights are classified to permanent equity. Redeemable noncontrolling interests remain classified in mezzanine equity and are measured at estimated fair value as of the balance sheet date. Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests that are and are not subject to put rights have been combined in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Acquisitions of entities where JCG holds an existing controlling interest are treated as a reduction of noncontrolling interests in an amount equal to the purchase price. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Noncontrolling Interests That Are Not Subject to Put Rights &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Noncontrolling interests that are not subject to put rights consist of undistributed earnings related to third-party investors in consolidated investment products and certain INTECH and Perkins ownership interests granted to employees. Undistributed earnings attributable to INTECH and Perkins ownership interests totaled $4.7&amp;nbsp;million at December&amp;nbsp;31, 2010. Certain of the INTECH and Perkins ownership interests granted to employees become subject to put rights upon vesting at which time such interests are reclassified to redeemable noncontrolling interests.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;In June 2010, INTECH purchased ownership interests held by INTECH employees for $5.0&amp;nbsp;million. These ownership interests represent less than 1% of total INTECH ownership interests and were not subject to put rights. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Redeemable noncontrolling interests consist of INTECH and Perkins interests that are currently puttable to JCG or will become puttable at certain future dates, and undistributed earnings of $0.9&amp;nbsp;million attributable to such interests as of December&amp;nbsp;31, 2010. Changes in fair value of redeemable noncontrolling interests are recognized as increases or decreases to redeemable noncontrolling interests with an offsetting charge to retained earnings. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;INTECH &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;On February&amp;nbsp;19, 2010, pursuant to contractual obligations, JCG acquired an additional 3% interest in INTECH from the two founding members for $31.4&amp;nbsp;million. This transaction reduced the two founders' aggregate ownership interest to approximately 2% of INTECH. Each founder is entitled to retain his remaining INTECH shares outstanding until his death unless he is terminated for cause or leaves voluntarily while not in good standing. An INTECH founder will be considered to be in good standing if he voluntarily leaves after providing 12&amp;nbsp;months' prior notice and cooperates with the transition. Each of the two INTECH founding members has the option annually to require JCG to purchase from him his remaining ownership interest of INTECH at fair value. The following table discloses the effect on equity as a result of JCG's acquisition of the additional 3% interest in INTECH (&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;in millions&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;): &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Total INTECH ownership interests held by the two founders have an estimated value of approximately $16.0&amp;nbsp;million as of December&amp;nbsp;31, 2010. Ownership interests held by other INTECH employees subject to put rights have an estimated value of approximately $3.1&amp;nbsp;million as of December&amp;nbsp;31, 2010. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Perkins &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;On December&amp;nbsp;31, 2008 ("closing"), JCG increased its ownership of Perkins to approximately 80% with the purchase of an additional 50% ownership interest for $90.0&amp;nbsp;million in cash. Upon closing the transaction, Perkins granted senior profit interest awards designed to retain and incentivize key employees to grow the business. These awards vest on the fifth anniversary of grant and are generally entitled to a total of 5% of Perkins' annual taxable income. In addition, these awards have a formula-driven terminal value based on revenue growth and relative investment performance of products managed by Perkins. JCG can call and terminate any or all of the awards on the fifth, seventh or each subsequent anniversary of grant or prior to the fifth anniversary of grant if the formula yields a terminal value of $40.0&amp;nbsp;million. Participants can require JCG to terminate the awards in exchange for the then-applicable formula price on the sixth anniversary of grant. The senior profit interest awards are also subject to termination at premiums or discounts to the formula at the option of JCG or the relevant employee, as applicable, upon certain corporate or employment-related events affecting Perkins or the relevant employee.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;During the first quarter 2009, the issuance of Perkins&amp;nbsp;LLC Interests that vest ratably over four years to its chief executive officer, resulted in a decrease of JCG's ownership in Perkins by 2.2%. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;JCG also has the option to acquire the majority of the remaining 22.2% interest of Perkins at fair value on the third, fifth, seventh or each subsequent anniversary of the closing. The noncontrolling owners of Perkins have the option to require JCG to purchase any or all of their remaining interests on the fourth or sixth anniversary of closing at fair value. The total Perkins noncontrolling interest subject to put rights has an estimated value of approximately $63.0&amp;nbsp;million as of December&amp;nbsp;31, 2010, based on a contractual formula driven by revenue and investment performance of products managed by Perkins. The formula is intended to represent fair value.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
