Only racial penalties are calculated after the xp is distributed to the group though. The reason why people don't want to group with hybrids is because they know they will partially share that classes xp penalty.

So yes, racial penalties affect the total amount of experience required to level. So do class penalties when someone is playing solo. However, when a player with a class penalty is grouped, then the entire group shares the class penalty. Therefore it's fair to just adjust the mobs total experience given to the group.
