(a)    Delivery of Aggregate Exchange Notices.  Subject to Section 2.1(b) and Section 2.4, no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the applicable Open Period, OCGH shall deliver written notice to Brookfield or its designee (an “Aggregate Exchange Notice”) (i) specifying (A) the name of each OCGH Limited Partner participating in the applicable Exchange (each, an “Exchanging LP”) and (B) the number of Exchangeable Units to be Exchanged by each such Exchanging LP subject to the limits, if any, set forth in Section 2.1(b) below (the “Exchanged Units”) and (ii) containing a representation and warranty by OCGH that all the Exchanging LPs are the legal, record and beneficial owners of the applicable Exchanged Units and that upon the sale of the applicable Exchanged Units pursuant to this Agreement, all right, title and interest in such Exchanged Units will vest in the purchaser thereof, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Transfer Restrictions (as defined in the OCGH Partnership Agreement)). If, upon receipt of an Aggregate Exchange Notice, Brookfield determines that, following the applicable Exchange Date, the Permitted Oaktree Holders would in the aggregate Beneficially Own less than 1% of the issued and outstanding Oaktree Operating Group Units (as defined in the Oaktree Operating Agreement), Brookfield may thereupon provide written notice to OCGH to require that all remaining Exchangeable Units be included in the Aggregate Exchange Notice with respect to a specified future Open Period (which shall not be earlier than 36 months following the receipt of such written notice), it being understood and agreed that such right shall apply each time an Aggregate Exchange Notice is delivered to Brookfield, in the event that Brookfield has not previously exercised such right; provided that concurrently with or following the delivery of the written notice pursuant to Section 2.4, Brookfield shall have the right to require that all remaining Exchangeable Units be exchanged pursuant to an Aggregate Exchange Notice delivered with respect to the final Open Period if, following the Exchange Date with respect to the final Open Period, the Permitted Oaktree Holders would otherwise in the aggregate Beneficially Own less than 5% of the issued and outstanding Oaktree Operating Group Units (as defined in the Oaktree Operating Agreement).  Except as otherwise permitted by Brookfield or its designee:
(i)    an Aggregate Exchange Notice shall be irrevocable once delivered and must be unconditional;
(ii)    any Aggregate Exchange Notice that purports to be revocable or conditional may be ignored or treated as irrevocable and unconditional;  and
(iii)    any Aggregate Exchange Notice that is delivered with respect to any Open Period shall not be valid with respect to any other Open Period.
For the avoidance of doubt, any portion of the Exchangeable Units whose sale is being requested by such Aggregate Exchange Notice but are not sold due to exceeding the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b)(i) or Section 2.1(b)(iv), may be submitted on a new Aggregate Exchange Notice in a subsequent Open Period with respect to any such excess.
(b)    Limitations on Exchanges.  
(i)    In connection with each Open Period, except as otherwise agreed by Brookfield and an OCGH Limited Partner, Exchanging LPs shall not be permitted to sell a number of Exchangeable Units (other than in respect of Former Oaktree Units) pursuant to this Agreement in excess of the amount determined as set forth under the heading “Amount” in the table below; provided that (x) this Section 2.1(b) (other than Section 2.1(b)(iv)) shall not apply with respect to Exchangeable Units that were Former Oaktree Units and (y) references in the below table to “Exchangeable Units” shall exclude any Former Oaktree Units.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 2.1(b)(ii) shall cease to apply immediately upon Brookfield’s delivery of a written notice to OCGH in accordance with Section 2.4 of its intention to discontinue any or all future Open Periods.
(iii)    The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no OCGH Limited Partner may participate in any Exchange pursuant hereto unless and until such OCGH Limited Partner shall have executed (including on their behalf by power of attorney, if applicable, and solely to the extent legally valid and binding) and delivered an effective counterpart to that certain TRA Amendment (as defined in the Merger Agreement).
(iv)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1(b) or otherwise in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Exchanging LPs be entitled to sell Exchangeable Units that were Former Oaktree Units (including Accelerated Former Oaktree Units) in any given Exchange if the aggregate Current Equity Value attributable to such Former Oaktree Units would exceed the Former Oaktree Unit Threshold.  In the event that the aggregate Current Equity Value of the Former Oaktree Units requested to be sold or exchanged in an Aggregate Exchange Notice in any given Open Period is greater than the Former Oaktree Unit Threshold for such Exchange, OCGH shall revise and re-allocate the Former Oaktree Units being included in the Exchange in its sole discretion, such that the applicable aggregate Current Equity Value for all participating Former Oaktree Units is equal to or less than the Former Oaktree Unit Threshold, and OCGH shall notify Brookfield of the result of such reallocation.
(c)    Exchanges of OCGH Units. On the Exchange Date, each Exchanging LP shall receive an amount equal to the Exchange Consideration for each OCGH Unit being Exchanged by such Exchanging LP.  To the extent the Exchange Consideration for the Exchange is (i) cash, Class A Shares or Atlas Notes, Brookfield shall purchase from each Exchanging LP the OCGH Units to be exchanged by such Exchanging LP for such cash, Class A Shares or Atlas Notes (such OCGH Units, the “Cash/Share/Note Exchange Units”) or (ii) ExchangeCo Units, OCGH shall acquire from the OCGH Limited Partners participating in an Exchange pursuant to this Agreement the OCGH Units to be exchanged for such ExchangeCo Units (such OCGH Units, the “ExchangeCo Exchange Units”) and such OCGH Limited Partner shall sell or transfer to Brookfield or, in the event the Exchange Consideration is ExchangeCo Units, to OCGH, the Exchanged Units.  As consideration for the sale of Cash/Share/Note Exchange Units, Brookfield shall pay or cause to be paid to each Exchanging LP the portion of the Exchange Consideration payable to such Exchanging LP that is payable (at Brookfield’s election, subject to Section 2.1(f)(iii) and Article IV hereof) in cash, Class A Shares, Atlas Notes, or a combination of the foregoing.  As consideration for the transfer of ExchangeCo Exchange Units, OCGH shall deliver to the Exchanging LP a number of ExchangeCo Units equal to the number of ExchangeCo Exchange Units, subject to Section 2.1(f)(iii) and Article IV hereof.

Prior to withholding any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.1(h), Brookfield or Paying Agent (as applicable) will provide at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to the Person in respect of which such withholding is made, and shall cooperate with such Person to reduce or eliminate such withholding (including by providing such Person an opportunity to provide any applicable Tax forms); provided that no such prior notice will be required (i) for withholding pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code with respect to an Exchanging LP, if OCGH does not timely provide the certificate described in Section 2.2(d)(i)(B) of this Agreement or (ii) for withholding pursuant to Section 1446(f) of the Code with respect to an Exchanging LP, if such Exchanging LP does not timely provide the form described in Section 2.2(d)(i)(A)(I) of this Agreement. Any such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made; provided that such amounts are remitted to the applicable Governmental Entities. Any deductions or withholdings made from the Exchange Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be made (1) first from any Exchange Consideration payable in the form of cash (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount of any deduction or withholding shall not be limited to the amount of such cash), (2) second from any Exchange Consideration payable in the form of Class A Shares (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount of any deduction or withholding shall not be limited to the amount of such Class A Shares), and (3) last from any Exchange Consideration payable in the form of Atlas Notes or ExchangeCo Units.
(i)    Exemptions. Any ExchangeCo Units or Atlas Notes issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act and will be issued only in transactions exempt from such registration.  In particular, any such ExchangeCo Units or Atlas Notes will be issued only to Exchanging LPs that are (A) non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, (B) accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) in a manner complying with the conditions set forth in Rule 506(c) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and/or (C) resident in Canada in a manner that is exempt from the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws in the applicable provinces and territories of Canada.  The parties hereto agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in order to ensure compliance with the foregoing, including (w) making or obtaining appropriate written representations regarding the status of Exchanging LPs, (x) facilitating reasonable investigation into the status thereof as contemplated by Rule 506(c)(2) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, (y) making or obtaining other representations customary in private placement transactions, and (z) making available appropriate information and opportunities to conduct due diligence.  The parties hereto agree that any OCGH Limited Partner that is unable to make necessary representations or make available necessary information may not be able to receive ExchangeCo Units or Atlas Notes in an Exchange, and shall instead receive cash, Class A Shares or a combination of the foregoing.  OCGH hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such OCGH Limited Partners to become “accredited investors”, or otherwise eligible to participate in a private placement, including by appointing a “purchaser representative” (at Brookfield’s sole cost and expense) pursuant to Rule 506 (it being understood that the parties hereto will cooperate in good faith to establish eligibility of an OCGH Limited Partner to participate in a private placement). In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, there are OCGH Limited Partners participating in an Exchange who are not “accredited investors” and are ineligible to participate in a private placement, and the value of the OCGH Units in such Exchange owned by such OCGH Limited Partners exceeds $20,000,000, then OCGH and Brookfield shall cooperate in good faith to determine and implement an approach in respect of the OCGH Units owned by such OCGH Limited Partners in excess of such amount that would be economically equivalent to the Atlas Notes and/or ExchangeCo Units being received by the other Exchanging LPs.

Section 2.2    Closing Procedures.  
(a)    Exchange Date.  The closing of any sale or exchange of an OCGH Limited Partner’s OCGH Units hereunder shall occur on or prior to the ninety-fifth (95th) day following the expiration of the applicable Open Period (the date on which the closing of any such sale or exchange occurs, the “Exchange Date”), subject to delay pursuant to the penultimate proviso to Section 2.1(f)(iii) or to comply with Section 2.2(c); provided that, in the event the Valuation Firm has not completed its review and made its determination pursuant to Section 2.5 on or prior to the eighty-fifth (85th) day following expiration of the applicable Open Period, then the Exchange Date pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) shall be no earlier than the final determination by the Valuation Firm of the Current Equity Value, and no later than the date that is five (5) Business Days following the final determination by the Valuation Firm of the Current Equity Value; provided, however, that the final determination by such Valuation Firm shall not exceed the ninetieth (90th) day following the expiration of the applicable Open Period.

Promptly upon the delivery of the Notice of Dispute (but no later than three (3) days), each of OCGH and Brookfield shall appoint a member of its senior management, and such members of senior management will negotiate in good faith and attempt to resolve such dispute; provided that if such members of senior management are unable to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) days following the delivery of the Notice of Dispute, then the members of senior management shall submit such dispute to arbitration in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 5.11.

Section 2.4    Termination of Exchanges.  At any time following the eighth (8th) anniversary of the Merger Closing Date, Brookfield may provide written notice to each OCGH Limited Partner, pursuant to Section 5.1, of the termination of any Open Periods beginning no earlier than 36 months following the date of such notice.

Section 2.5    Delivery of Valuation.  
(a)    Current Equity Value Calculation.  As soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days following the end of each calendar year (or ninety (90) days following the end of each of calendar years 2020 and 2021), Oaktree (which, solely for purposes of this Section 2.5, shall include Atlas OCM) shall prepare and deliver to Brookfield (or after the expiration of the Initial Period, to OCGH) (Brookfield, or after the expiration of the Initial Period, OCGH, the “Non-Control Party”, and OCGH, or, after the expiration of the Initial Period, Brookfield, the “Control Party”)) the consolidated audited financial statements of the OpCos prepared in accordance with GAAP, a calculation of each component of the Current Equity Value (other than clause (ii) of the definition thereof) for the immediately preceding calendar year and a bridge to GAAP for such components of the Current Equity Value Calculation that are non-GAAP, together with all of the components thereto (including all of the components of Total Equity Value), together with all reasonable supporting documentation (the “Current Equity Value Calculation”).  Oaktree and its representatives shall make available or cause to be made available to the Non-Control Party and its representatives all work papers and other books and records used in preparing the Current Equity Value Calculation and provide reasonable access to members of its accounting and financial staff and outside auditors in connection with the Non-Control Party’s review thereof; provided, however, that the accountants of Oaktree shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to the Non-Control Party except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after such firm has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants.
(b)    Dispute Notice.  The Non-Control Party shall have 30 days following receipt of the Current Equity Value Calculation to notify the Control Party in writing (a “Dispute Notice”) of any dispute of any item, calculation or other matter contained in the Current Equity Value Calculation, including in the event that insufficient supporting documentation was delivered to the Non-Control Party, which Dispute Notice shall set forth a description of the items, calculations or matter disputed.  If the Non-Control Party delivers a Dispute Notice during such 30 day period, then the items, calculations and other matters that are specified in such Dispute Notice shall be deemed in dispute and all other items, calculations and matters set forth in the Current Equity Value Calculation shall be final and binding.  If the Non-Control Party fails to deliver a Dispute Notice to the Control Party within such 30 day period or if the Non-Control Party at any time during such 30 day period notifies the Control Party in writing that the Non-Control Party agrees with the Current Equity Value Calculation in its entirety (or any particular items, calculations or matters set forth in the Current Equity Value Calculation), then the Current Equity Value Calculation (or such item, calculation or matter, as applicable) shall become final and binding.
(c)    Valuation Dispute.  In the event that the Non-Control Party delivers a Dispute Notice, then the Non-Control Party and the Control Party shall work in good faith to resolve the Non-Control Party’s objections set forth therein and the calculation of the Current Equity Value.  In the event the Non-Control Party and the Control Party fail to agree on the Current Equity Value within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, then the applicable disputed items shall be promptly referred for valuation to a nationally recognized valuation firm (which may be the valuation practice of a nationally-recognized investment bank or accounting firm) with experience valuating asset management firms (the “Valuation Firm”) which shall determine, no later than ninety (90) days following the expiration of the applicable Open Period, the computation of the items remaining in dispute and the resulting calculation of the Current Equity Value, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In resolving any disputed item, the Valuation Firm (i) shall be bound by the Historic Principles and the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party and (iii) shall take into account only the Dispute Notice and the information and documents provided to the Valuation Firm by or on behalf of the Non-Control Party or the Control Party (i.e., not on the basis of independent review).  The Valuation Firm shall consider only the disputed matters that were included in the Dispute Notice and that the Non-Control Party and the Control Party were unable to resolve.  Neither the Non-Control Party nor the Control Party shall meet or have any conversations separately with the Valuation Firm (other than conversations limited to the submission of a request for documents or information by the Valuation Firm to such party) without the other party’s prior written consent.  Each of the Non-Control Party and the Control Party may also furnish to the Valuation Firm such other information and documents as it deems relevant or such information and documents as may be requested by the Valuation Firm; provided, that it delivers a copy thereof substantially simultaneously to the other party.  The aggregate fees, costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm shall be borne by the Oaktree Operating Group (provided that each party will bear their own legal fees with respect to any of the matters pursuant to this Section 2.5).  During the review by the Valuation Firm, each party agrees that it will, and agrees to direct its independent accountants to, reasonably cooperate and assist in the calculation of the Current Equity Value Calculation and in the conduct of the review by the Valuation Firm of any proposed calculations of the Current Equity Value Calculation or the components thereof, including the Total Equity Value, and the making reasonably available to the extent necessary, of books, records, work papers and personnel; provided, however, that the accountants of Oaktree, the Control Party and the Non-Control Party shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to the Valuation Firm except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after such firm has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants. The Current Equity Value Calculation as determined by the Valuation Firm shall be final and binding on the parties hereto absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, any disputes with respect to the Current Equity Value Calculation shall be resolved pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.5, to the exclusion of any other dispute resolution mechanism provided in this Agreement, including Sections 2.3 and 5.11.  The Control Party and the Non-Control Party shall mutually agree on a Valuation Firm or absent such agreement, the Valuation Firm shall be selected through arbitration pursuant to Section 5.11. It is further understood and agreed that the Control Party shall cause Oaktree and Atlas OCM to comply with their obligations under this Agreement.

Section 2.6    Total Equity Value.  
(a)    Acquisitions and Dispositions. With respect to any completed acquisition or disposition, OCGH and Brookfield agree to negotiate in good faith to adjust the Total Equity Value and the components thereof on a pro forma basis for (i) the preceding three year period to properly reflect the impact on (x) Base Fee Earnings and (y) Net Incentives Created or (ii) item “C” under the definition of “Total Equity Value”. 
(b)    Consolidation of DL Capital or Other Investment Manager. This Agreement assumes that the Oaktree Group’s interest in DL Capital is a minority interest. In the event that the Oaktree Group’s interest in DL Capital or any other investment manager increases after the date hereof such that DL Capital or such other investment manager is consolidated in the financial statements of the OpCos or controlled by the Oaktree Group under applicable law, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to adjust the Total Equity Value and the components thereof on a pro forma basis for (i) the preceding three year period to properly reflect the impact on (x) Base Fee Earnings and (y) Net Incentives Created or (ii) item “C” under the definition of “Total Equity Value”.
(c)    LTIP.  To the extent that, following the date hereof, OCGH issues additional OCGH Units in accordance with the OCGH Partnership Agreement that are not Exchangeable Units, then the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to adjust the Total Equity Value and the components thereof.

Section 2.7    Post-Closing Consents and Amendments.  
(a)    Formation of New Funds.  With respect to each Company Fund formed during the Initial Period (and each Managed Account and sub-advisory relationship, the Investment Advisory Arrangement for which is entered into during the Initial Period), each Oaktree Group Member shall include in the partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement (including a side letter) of such Company Fund (or the Investment Advisory Arrangement for such Managed Account or sub-advisory relationship), provisions that (i) provide for the advance approval of the assignment (within the meaning of the Advisers Act) of the applicable Investment Advisory Arrangement to Brookfield or its Affiliates and (ii) other than with respect to Registered Funds, modify the definition of “affiliate” contained therein such that no affiliate of Oaktree, any OpCo, or its or their direct and indirect subsidiaries in respect of which an actual or virtual information barrier is in place, or in respect of which there is no coordination or consultation in respect of investment decisions (in each case, as determined by Oaktree in its discretion based on the relevant facts and circumstances applicable to each particular situation) shall be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Oaktree, any OpCo, or its or their direct and indirect subsidiaries for purposes of such governing agreement (or such Investment Advisory Arrangement) or otherwise provide that none of BAM or any of its affiliates will be an “affiliate” of Oaktree, any OpCo, or its or their direct and indirect subsidiaries for purposes of such governing agreement (or such Investment Advisory Arrangement).   
(b)    Required Amendments.  
(i)    As soon as reasonably practicable following the Merger Closing Date, with respect to each Company Fund that does not require affirmative consent to approve amendments to such Company Fund’s partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement, the Oaktree Group shall amend such partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement of such Company Fund to include the Required Amendment.
(ii)    As soon as reasonably practicable following the Merger Closing Date, with respect to each Company Fund that requires affirmative consent to approve amendments to such Company Fund’s partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement, the Oaktree Group shall use reasonable best efforts to amend such partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement of such Company Fund to include the Required Amendment.
(iii)    As soon as reasonably practicable following the Merger Closing Date, with respect to each Managed Account or sub-advisory relationship for which a Negative Consent is not sufficient under the applicable Investment Advisory Arrangement for approval of an assignment (within the meaning of the Advisers Act) to Brookfield or its Affiliates, the Oaktree Group shall use reasonable best efforts to amend such Investment Advisory Arrangement of such Managed Account or such sub-advisory relationship to include the Required Amendment.
(iv)    Brookfield shall have the reasonable opportunity to review drafts of, and Oaktree shall obtain Brookfield’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to the form and substance of (i) the Required Amendment and any related notice and consent form for any Company Fund, Managed Account or sub-advisory relationship, and (ii) the provisions required to be included in the partnership agreement, operating agreement, shareholders’ agreement or similar governing agreement for each Company Fund formed during the Initial Period (or, in the case of a new Managed Account or new sub-advisory relationship, included in its Investment Advisory Arrangement) as contemplated by Section 2.7(a) hereof; provided, that, if Oaktree has previously obtained Brookfield’s consent to the form and substance of a Required Amendment or the required provisions contemplated by this Section 2.7, Oaktree shall not be required to obtain Brookfield’s consent to subsequent amendments if the form and substance of such amendments and related notices and consent forms are substantially the same as the Required Amendment (or required provisions) and related notice and consent form previously reviewed and approved by Brookfield.

Section 2.8    Additional Payments.  On each of the first (1st), second (2nd) and third (3rd) anniversary of the Merger Closing Date, Brookfield (on behalf of itself and on behalf of Oaktree LLC and Oaktree AIF) shall pay to OCGH as administrative agent on behalf of the limited partners of OCGH set forth in the books and records thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, regardless of whether they are a limited partner as of any applicable payment date) a cash payment of $66,000,000 in the aggregate (each such payment, an “Additional Payment”), which shall be allocated among such limited partners based on their percentage interests in such Additional Payment as determined by OCGH in its sole discretion; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, OCGH shall be permitted to offset any Additional Payment received on behalf of a Limited Partner by any Tax indemnity payments paid or payable by OCGH pursuant to the limited partnership agreement (or other organizational document) of an OpCo that are attributable to such Limited Partner to the extent such Tax indemnity payments did not reduce distributions to OCGH attributable to such Limited Partner or any other liabilities of OCGH that OCGH determines are attributable to such Limited Partner; provided, further, that nothing in this Agreement shall expand any obligations of OCGH to indemnify for Taxes pursuant to the limited partnership agreement (or other organizational document) of an OpCo. The parties agree that (x) a portion of each Additional Payment will be treated for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes as consideration for the exchange of OCGH Units on the Merger Closing Date and (y) a portion of each Additional Payment will be treated for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes as consideration for the future Exchanges following the Merger Closing Date (and any portion attributable to a future Exchange shall be treated as an open transaction for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes until such future Exchange occurs). The Additional Payments will be allocated between exchanges of OCGH Units on the Merger Closing Date and Exchanges after the Merger Closing Date in accordance with the methodology set forth in Exhibit I, whether or not future Exchanges occur in accordance with the timing assumptions reflected on Exhibit I.  Prior to the first anniversary of the Merger Closing Date, OCGH may make one update to such allocation in a manner consistent with such methodology to take into account any updated information regarding the built-in gain of the limited partners as of the Merger Closing Date and will deliver an updated allocation schedule to Brookfield.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement and the issuance of any ExchangeCo Unit or underlying ExchangeCo Note upon any Exchange in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the issuer thereof, an “Issuer”) does not conflict with, violate or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default under, or result in the termination of or accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration under, (i) the organizational documents of such Issuer, (ii) any credit agreement, mortgage, note, indenture, deed of trust, lease, license, loan agreement or other agreement binding upon such Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, or (iii) any permit, government license, judgment, order, decree, ruling, injunction, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to such Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, other than in the cases of clauses (ii) and (iii) as would not, individually or in the aggregate, constitute a Material Adverse Effect on such Issuer.  Assuming the accuracy of the representations of the other parties set forth herein, other than as have been obtained prior to the date of this Agreement, no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required on the part of such Issuer or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the applicable issuance upon any Exchange in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, except for any consent, approval, order, authorization, registration, declaration, filing, exemption or review the failure of which to be obtained or made would not, individually or in the aggregate, constitute a Material Adverse Effect on such Issuer.

(d)    Brokers and Finders.  OCGH has not retained, utilized or been represented by, or otherwise become obligated to, any broker, placement agent, financial advisor or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whose fees any of the other parties would be required to pay.

Section 5.2    Interpretation.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  For the purposes of this Agreement, the words “he,” “his” or “himself” shall be interpreted to include the masculine, feminine and corporate, other entity or trust form. Whenever the words “included,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  Whenever in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise a Person is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its “sole discretion” or “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such Person may make such decision in its sole discretion (regardless of whether there is a reference to “sole discretion” or “discretion”), and shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting any other Person (other than a duty to act in good faith) and (ii) under another express standard, such Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard.  When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded. References to “days” are to calendar days; provided, however, that any action otherwise required to be taken on a day that is not a Business Day shall instead be taken on the next succeeding Business Day. If the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 5.3    Joinder.  
(a)    The General Partner shall (unless determined otherwise by the General Partner in its sole discretion) cause each OCGH Limited Partner and each Person receiving an award of OCGH equity under any Oaktree or Atlas OCM ownership plan to be joined as a party to this Agreement by either (i) executing a counterpart to this Agreement or (ii) otherwise agreeing to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement, in either case for so long as such Person remains a limited partner of OCGH or holds an equity award.
(b)    Any joinder of parties to this Agreement permitted or required by this Section 5.3 shall be effective notwithstanding Section 5.12.

Section 5.4    Transaction Expenses.  Except to the extent as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, all expenses incurred in connection with the Exchange, including fees and disbursements of counsel to Brookfield and OCGH, will be borne by Oaktree; provided, however, that all fees and expenses resulting from a registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, will be borne by Brookfield, including all printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel to Brookfield and OCGH, the fees of independent certified accountants and the expenses of qualifying Class A Shares under blue sky laws; provided, further, that counsel fees and disbursements resulting from services to an OCGH Limited Partner in his or her personal capacity will be borne by such OCGH Limited Partner.

Section 5.5    Reserved.  

Section 5.6    Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein, if the economic and legal substance of the arrangements contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto.  Upon such a determination, OCGH and Oaktree shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.  

Section 5.7    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 5.8    Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement and the OCGH Partnership Agreement collectively constitute the entire agreement and supersede all other prior agreements, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, that in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the OCGH Partnership Agreement, the OCGH Partnership Agreement shall control; provided, further, that nothing herein shall be deemed to supersede any bona fide, ordinary course securities trading policy or other agreement binding on a Founding Co-Chairman in connection with his service as a member of the board of directors of BAM.  This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto, any rights or remedies hereunder.

Section 5.9    Further Assurances.  Each party shall execute, deliver, acknowledge and file such other documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the other party hereto to give effect to and carry out the transactions contemplated herein.  In the event that the Closing would reasonably be expected to be delayed as a result of an injunction, restraining order or decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity, then the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to resist, vacate, modify, reverse, suspend, prevent, eliminate or remove such actual, anticipated or threatened injunction, restraining order or decree so as to permit the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable; provided that in no event shall any party hereto be forced to litigate with, or bring any claim against, a Governmental Entity to accomplish the same.

Section 5.10    Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed and enforced, along with any rights, remedies or obligations provided for hereunder, in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware by residents of the State of Delaware; provided, that the enforceability of Section 5.11 shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., and not the laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 5.11    Arbitration of Disputes.  
(a)    Except as provided in Section 2.5, any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to (i) OCGH, (ii) any OCGH Limited Partner’s rights and obligations hereunder, (iii) the validity or scope of any provision of this Agreement, (iv) whether a particular dispute, claim or controversy is subject to arbitration under this Section 5.11 and (v) the power and authority of any arbitrator selected hereunder, that are not resolved by mutual agreement shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration before Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.  A party hereto may commence the arbitration process by filing a written demand for arbitration with JAMS and delivering a copy of such demand to the other party or parties to the arbitration in accordance with the notice procedures set forth in Section 5.1.  The arbitration shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware, and shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration.  The parties to the arbitration shall cooperate with JAMS and with each other in selecting an arbitrator from JAMS’ panel of neutrals and in scheduling the arbitration proceedings.  The arbitrator selected shall be neutral and a former Delaware chancery court judge or, if such judge is not available, a former U.S. federal judge with experience in adjudicating matters under the laws of the State of Delaware; provided, that if no such person is both willing and able to undertake such a role, the parties to the arbitration shall cooperate with each other and JAMS in good faith to select such other person as may be available from JAMS’ panel of neutrals with experience in adjudicating matters under the laws of the State of Delaware.  The parties to the arbitration shall participate in the arbitration in good faith.  Each party to the arbitration shall pay those costs, if any, of arbitration that it must pay to cause this Section 5.11 to be enforceable, and all other costs of arbitration shall be shared equally between the parties to the arbitration.
(b)    No party to an arbitration shall be entitled to undertake discovery in the arbitration; provided, that, if discovery is required by applicable law, discovery shall not exceed (i) one witness deposition plus the depositions of any expert designated by the other party or parties, (ii) two interrogatories, (iii) ten document requests and (iv) ten requests for admissions; provided, further, that additional discovery may be permitted to the extent such additional discovery is required by applicable law for this Section 5.11 to be enforceable. The arbitrator shall have no power to modify any of the provisions of this Agreement, to make an award or impose a remedy that, in each case, is not available to the Delaware chancery court or to make an award or impose a remedy that was not requested by a party to the dispute, and the jurisdiction of the arbitrator is limited accordingly.  To the extent permitted by law, the arbitrator shall have the power to order injunctive relief, and shall expeditiously act on any petition for such relief.
(c)    The provisions of this Section 5.11 may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and, to the extent permitted by law, the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any party to an arbitration pursuant to this Section 5.11 shall be entitled to seek a restraining order or injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent any violation of the provisions of this Agreement pending a final determination on the merits by the arbitrator, and each party hereby consents that such a restraining order or injunction may be granted without the necessity of posting any bond.
(d)    The details of any arbitration pursuant to this Section 5.11, including the existence and/or outcome of such arbitration and any information obtained in connection with any such arbitration, shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or discussed with any person not a party to the arbitration; provided, that such party may make such disclosures as are required by applicable law or legal process; provided, further, that such party may make such disclosures to its, his or her attorneys, accountants or other agents and representatives who reasonably need to know the disclosed information in connection with any arbitration pursuant to this Section 5.11 and who are obligated to keep such information confidential to the same extent as such party.  If a party to an arbitration receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party that seeks disclosure of any information that is required to be kept confidential pursuant to the prior sentence, or otherwise believes that it, he or she may be required to disclose any such information, such party shall (i) promptly notify the other party to the arbitration and (ii) reasonably cooperate with such other party in taking any legal or otherwise appropriate actions, including the seeking of a protective order, to prevent the disclosure, or otherwise protect the confidentiality, of such information.
(e)    For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any arbitration pursuant to this Section 5.11 shall not include any disputes, claims or controversies that do not arise out of or relate to this Agreement, and (ii) any arbitration pursuant to this Section 5.11 of disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement is intended to be separate and distinct proceeding from any arbitration or other adjudication of disputes, claims or controversies between parties to this Agreement that do not arise out of or relate to this Agreement.

Section 5.12    Amendments; Waivers.  
(a)    This Agreement may be amended, modified or waived at any time in writing by agreement of Brookfield, Oaktree and OCGH without the approval or consent of any other party; provided, that if any such amendment, modification or waiver would adversely affect in any material respect any OCGH Limited Partner relative to all OCGH Limited Partners collectively as a group, such amendment, modification, or waiver shall also require the written consent of the OCGH Limited Partners holding a majority of the Percentage Interests held by the OCGH Limited Partners so adversely affected.
(b)    No waiver by any party hereto of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement hereof shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party hereto to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it, him or her thereafter.  Any default hereunder by a party hereto shall not excuse any obligation of any other party.

Section 5.13    Assignment.  Except as may be provided in the OCGH Partnership Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of Brookfield, Oaktree and OCGH.  Any assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 5.14    Tax Treatment.  To the extent this Agreement imposes obligations upon a particular OpCo or its general partner, this Agreement shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of such OpCo as described in Section 761(c) of the Code, and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations.  Unless otherwise required by the Code and the Treasury Regulations, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i) the parties shall report (A) an Exchange of Cash/Share/Note Exchange Units consummated hereunder as a taxable sale of OCGH Units by an OCGH Limited Partner to Brookfield; (B) an Exchange of ExchangeCo Exchange Units consummated hereunder (and any distributions on the ExchangeCo Units received in such Exchange) as distributions under Section 731 of the Code and (C) any redemption pursuant to Section 2.1(d) hereof as a redemption of Brookfield’s entire interest in OCGH and (ii) no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.  

Section 5.15    Interference.  
(a)    Each Service Partner hereby agrees that for so long as the Service Partner provides services to an Oaktree Group Member, and for two years after the Service Partner ceases to provide such services for any reason, such Service Partner shall not directly or indirectly (i) solicit any customer or client of the Oaktree Group for a Competitive Business; provided that the foregoing clause (i) shall not be deemed to prohibit such Service Partner from participating in the normal marketing efforts of a Competitive Business, so long as such Service Partner does not solicit any client or customer known to such Service Partner as a result of his or her provision of services to an Oaktree Group Member to be a client or customer of the Oaktree Group, other than clients or customers of the Oaktree Group that, as of the date the Service Partner ceases to provide services to an Oaktree Group Member, are bona fide pre-existing clients or customers of such Competitive Business, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Oaktree Group to leave the Oaktree Group or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Oaktree Group and any employee thereof or (iii) hire, engage, employ, retain or otherwise enter into any business affiliation with any person who was an employee of the Oaktree Group at any time during the twelve-month period prior to the date a Service Partner ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group.
(b)    Each Service Partner hereby agrees that for so long as the Service Partner provides services to an Oaktree Group Member and for the duration of the Restricted Period (as defined in the OCGH Partnership Agreement), the Service Partner shall not directly or indirectly:
(i)    in any geographic location or area anywhere in the United States of America or any other country where an Oaktree Group Member conducts business, engage in a Competitive Business; or
(ii)    invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, render services or participate (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor, officer, director, agent, security holder, creditor, or otherwise) in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, or have any interest in, or be employed by, or be associated with or in any manner connected with, or render services, advice or aid to, or guarantee the obligations of, any Person that engages in or proposes to engage in a Competitive Business; 
provided, in each case, that (x) nothing herein shall prohibit a Service Partner from being a passive owner of not more than one percent of the outstanding stock of any class of securities of a corporation or entity engaged in such business which is publicly traded so long as such Service Partner has no participation in the business of such corporation or entity (other than the exercise of his or her shareholder voting rights) and (y) nothing herein shall prohibit a Service Partner from engaging in any of the foregoing activities in respect of, or on behalf of, the Brookfield Group.

Section 5.16    Contra Proferentem.  In the event any claim is made by any party hereto relating to any conflict, omission or ambiguity in this Agreement, no presumption or burden of proof or persuasion shall be implied by virtue of the fact that this Agreement was prepared by or at the request of a particular party or its, his or her counsel.

Section 5.17    Brookfield Asset Management Inc.  
(a)    Section 16 Matters. BAM will take such further actions as it determines in its discretion are required to cause any Exchange and all transactions related thereto or contemplated by this Agreement, directly or indirectly, by officers or directors of BAM (including “directors by deputization”) to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16b-3 thereunder, if such persons are subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to the equity securities of BAM.
(b)    Delivery of Class A Shares.  On each Exchange Date for which Brookfield has determined to pay or cause the Exchange Consideration to be paid in the form of Class A Shares, BAM will issue and deliver the requisite number of Class A Shares to the applicable OCGH Limited Partners, as contemplated by this Agreement, including Section 3.1(c).

Section 5.18    ExchangeCo Units.
