You can download and install the hotfix from Microsoft Knowledge Base article KB2938053.

Compatibility with Exchange Roles

When do I apply the fix?

Apply the fix after Service Pack 1 is installed.

Can I keep ORF installed while upgrading to SP1?

You can keep ORF installed while upgrading to Exchange 2013 SP1, but please be aware that you will not be able to start the Exchange Front-End Transport Service and/or the Exchange Transport Service until the hotfix is installed.
