SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
 
On November 9, 2009, we completed an underwritten public offering of 2,500,000 shares of our Class A common stock. The proceeds of that offering were used to redeem, for cash, an equivalent number of New Class A Units of Duff & Phelps Acquisitions, LLC, which otherwise would have been exchangeable for our Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis pursuant to our exchange agreement. The shares of Class A common stock into which such redeemed New Class A Units would have been exchangeable are no longer available for resale under the prospectus to which this prospectus supplement relates. In connection with the offering, approximately 221,000 shares of Class A common stock listed in the table below are subject to lock-up restrictions until February 3, 2010.
 
The shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus supplement may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders named below.  Information concerning other selling stockholders will be set forth in other prospectus supplements from time to time, if required.
 
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to such securities. Except as otherwise indicated, all persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of Class A common stock beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws.
 
Except as otherwise indicated, the address for each selling stockholder is c/o Duff & Phelps Corporation, 55 East 52nd Street, 31st Floor, New York, New York 10055.
