Item 1.02 Termination of Material Definitive Agreement

On September 6, 2011, Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) notified FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI Consulting”) that FTI Consulting will receive an additional 671,647 shares of common stock in final settlement of the supplemental confirmation entered into on March 2, 2011 (the “2011 Supplemental Confirmation”) relating to the $209.4 million accelerated stock buyback transaction (the “2011 ASB Transaction”) announced on March 3, 2011, pursuant to the collared accelerated stock buyback master confirmation agreement dated November 9, 2009 (the “Master Confirmation Agreement”) between FTI Consulting and Goldman Sachs. This brings the aggregate final number of common shares repurchased by FTI Consulting pursuant to the 2011 ASB Transaction to 5,733,205 shares. As permitted by the Master Confirmation Agreement and the 2011 Supplemental Confirmation, Goldman Sachs has accelerated the termination date of the 2011 Supplemental Confirmation and 2011 ASB Transaction (which was to occur no later than December 2, 2011) to September 2, 2011. No cash was required to be paid by FTI Consulting to complete the delivery of the shares or in connection with the termination of the 2011 ASB Transaction and 2011 Supplemental Confirmation. The 2011 ASB Transaction completes the $500 million common stock repurchase authorized by FTI Consulting’s Board of Directors in 2009.

The Master Confirmation Agreement was previously filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 9, 2009 filed by FTI Consulting with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 13, 2009 and the 2011 Supplemental Confirmation was previously filed as an exhibit to FTI Consulting’s Registration Statement on From S-4 (333-173096) filed with the SEC on March 25, 2011, and they are incorporated herein by reference.
