 Try option "host_find_failed = defer" for manualroute router.
 Look at 
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_manualroute_router.html
 for description of this option.

 However, you shoud understand that "solution" is bad, because situation
 when DNS answers "no such host" is a serious configuration error
 (don't mess is with DNS timeout, which should be a temporary error).
 You have better to make address of your mail hub resolvable,
 maybe by entry in local /etc/hosts.
