 SECTION 4. Units Reserved for Issuance Under the Plan; Limitations.

Subject to Section 9 hereof, the maximum number of Units that may be delivered pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan (the “Unit Limit”) shall be 21,600,000 subject to adjustment as provided herein, as increased on the first day of
each fiscal year beginning in calendar year 2008 by a number of Units equal to the excess of (x) 15% of the number of outstanding OOG Units on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year over (y) the number of OOG Units that have
been issued or are issuable under the Plan as of such date, unless the Board and the General Partner in their joint discretion decide to increase the number of Units covered by the Plan by a lesser amount. The issuance of Units or the payment of
cash upon the exercise of an Award or in consideration of the cancellation or termination of an Award shall reduce the total number of Units available under the Plan, as applicable. Units which are subject to Awards which terminate or lapse without
the payment of consideration may be granted again under the Plan. 
 SECTION 5. Eligibility. 

(a) The Participants under the Plan shall be selected from time to time by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, from among Eligible
Recipients. 
 SECTION 6. Options. 
 (a) General. Each Participant who is granted an Option shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its
discretion, which Award Agreement shall set forth, among other things, the Exercise Price of the Units subject to the Option, the term of the Option and provisions regarding exercisability of the Option granted thereunder. The provisions of each
Option need not be the same with respect to each Participant. More than one Option may be granted to the same Participant and be outstanding concurrently hereunder. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Section 6 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 

(b) Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of Units purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole
discretion at the time of grant, provided that the Exercise Price of any Units subject to an Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Units on the date of grant. 

(c) Option Term. The maximum term of each Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Option shall be exercisable more than
ten years after the date such Option is granted. Each Option’s term is subject to earlier expiration pursuant to the applicable provisions in the Plan and the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall have the
authority to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and under such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

  
 6 








 (d) Exercisability. Each Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and
subject to such terms and conditions, including the attainment of preestablished performance goals, as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator may also provide that any Option shall be
exercisable only in installments, and the Administrator may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time, in whole or in part, based on such factors as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, an Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Unit. 
 (e) Method of Exercise. Options may
be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Units to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Units so purchased in cash or its equivalent,
as determined by the Administrator. Subject to any requirements or limitations imposed by the Board and the General Partner, payment with respect to any Option or category of Options, may also be made: (i) by means of consideration received
under any cashless exercise procedure approved by the Administrator (including the withholding of Units otherwise issuable upon exercise), (ii) in the form of unrestricted Units already owned by the Participant which, (x) in the case of
unrestricted Units acquired upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate option price of the
Units as to which such Option shall be exercised, (iii) any other form of consideration approved by the Administrator and permitted by applicable law or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. 

(f) Rights as Unitholder. A Participant shall have no rights to distributions or any other rights as a Unitholder of OCGH with
respect to the Units subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of exercise, has paid in full for such Units, has satisfied the requirements of Section 12 hereof. 

(g) Transfers of Options. Except as otherwise determined by the Board and the General Partner, no Option granted under the Plan
shall be transferable by a Participant, other than by (i) a division of property pursuant to community or quasi-community property laws, (ii) a charitable gift, provided that the transferee or donee agrees to be subject to the same
restrictions, (iii) a transfer to personal planning vehicles, (iv) a transfer approved by the General Partner, (v) a pledge of the underlying Units to the Company, or (vi) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution;
provided, however, that, in addition to such other terms and conditions as the Board and the General Partner may impose in connection with any such transfer, no transferee may further assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the
transferred Option, in whole or in part, other than by operation of the laws of descent and distribution. Each permitted transferee shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. 

(h) Termination of Employment or Service. 
 (1) Unless the applicable Award Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company or with any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company shall
terminate for any reason other 

  
 7 








 
than Cause, Retirement, Disability, or death, (A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they are exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until
the date that is 90 days after such termination, on which date they shall expire, and (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business
on the date of such termination. The 90-day period described in this Section 7(i)(1) shall be extended to one year after the date of such termination in the event of the Participant’s death during such 90-day period. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term. 
 (2) Unless the applicable Award
Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company or with any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company shall terminate on account of the Retirement, Disability, or death of the Participant,
(A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date that is one year after such termination, on which date they shall expire and
(B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be
exercisable after the expiration of its term. 
 (3) In the event the employment or service of a Participant with
the Company or with any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company shall be terminated for Cause, all outstanding Options granted to such Participant shall expire at the commencement of business on the date of such termination. 

(i) Other Change in Employment Status. An Option shall be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves
of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial disability or other changes in the employment status of a Participant, in the discretion of the Administrator. The Administrator shall follow any applicable written policies of the
Company (if any), including such rules, guidelines and practices as may be adopted pursuant to Section 3 hereof, as they may be in effect from time to time, with regard to such matters. 

SECTION 7. Unit Appreciation Rights. 
 (a) General. Unit Appreciation Rights may be granted either alone (“Free Standing Rights”) or in conjunction with all or part of any other Award granted under the Plan
(“Related Rights”). The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Unit Appreciation Rights shall be made; the number of Units to be awarded; the price per Unit; and all
other conditions of the Unit Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Related Right may be granted for more Units than are subject to the Award to which it relates and any Unit Appreciation Right must be granted with an Exercise Price
not less than the Fair Market Value of the Units on the date of grant. The provisions of Unit Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each Participant. 

  
 8 








 
Unit Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not
inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator, or the Board and the General Partner shall set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 (b) Awards. The prospective recipient of a Unit Appreciation Right shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has executed an Award Agreement and
delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date. Participants who are granted Unit Appreciation Rights shall have no rights as
Unitholders of OCGH with respect to the grant or following exercise of such rights. 
 (c) Exercisability. 

(1) Unit Appreciation Rights that are Free Standing Rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such
terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 (2) Unit Appreciation Rights that are Related Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Awards to which they relate shall be exercisable in accordance with the
provisions of Section 6 above, this Section 7 of the Plan, and the terms set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 

(d) Payment Upon Exercise. 
 (1) Upon the exercise of a Free Standing Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Units equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Unit
as of the date of exercise over the price per Unit specified in the Free Standing Right (which price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such Unit on the date of grant) multiplied by the number of Units in respect of which the
Free Standing Right is being exercised, with the Administrator having the right to determine the form of payment. 
 (2) A Related Right may be exercised by a Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Award. Upon such exercise and surrender, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but
not more than, that number of Units equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Unit as of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price specified in the related Award (which price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of
a Unit on the date of grant) multiplied by the number of Units in respect of which the Related Unit Appreciation Right is being exercised, with the Administrator having the right to determine the form of payment. Awards that have been so
surrendered, in whole or in part, shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the Related Rights have been so exercised. 

  
 9 








 (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined by the Board
and the General Partner, the Administrator may determine to settle the exercise of a Unit Appreciation Right in cash (or in any combination of Units and cash) to the extent that such settlement does not violate Section 409A of the Code.

 (e) Non-Transferability. 
 (1) Free Standing Rights shall be transferable only when and to the extent that an Award would be transferable under Section 6 of the Plan.

(1) In the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the
Company of a Participant who has been granted one or more Free Standing Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award
Agreement. 
 (2) In the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company of a Participant who has been granted one or more Related Unit Appreciation Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as set forth in the related Unit Options.

 (g) Term. 
 (1) The term of each Free Standing Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Free Standing Unit Appreciation Right shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such right is granted.

 (2) The term of each Related Right shall be the term of the Award to which it relates, but no Related Right
shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such right is granted. 
 SECTION 8. Other Unit-Based Awards.

 (a) The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may grant or sell Awards of Units, restricted units, phantom restricted units
or other unit-based awards based on Fair Market Value of the Units (“Other Unit-Based Awards”). Subject to obtaining any necessary consent or authorization from the Board and the General Partner, each Other Unit-Based Awards shall be in
such form, and dependent on such conditions, as the Administrator shall determine, including, without limitation, the right to receive, or vest with respect to, one or more Units (or the equivalent cash value of such Units) upon the completion of a
specified period of service, the occurrence of an event and/or the attainment of performance objectives. Other Unit-Based 

  
 10 









 
Awards may be granted alone or in addition to any other Awards granted under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and obtaining any necessary consent or authorization from the Board
and the General Partner, the Administrator shall determine to whom and when Other Unit-Based Awards will be made, the number of Units to be awarded under (or otherwise related to) such Other Unit-Based Awards; whether such Other Unit-Based Awards
shall be settled in cash, Units or a combination of cash and Units; and all other terms and conditions of such Awards (including, without limitation, the vesting provisions thereof and provisions ensuring that all Units so awarded and issued shall
be fully paid and non-assessable). 
 SECTION 9. Adjustments Upon Certain Events. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all Awards granted under the
Plan: 
 (a) Generally. In the event of any change in the outstanding Units after the Effective Date by reason of any Unit
dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, combination or transaction or exchange of Units or other corporate exchange, or any distribution to shareholders of Units other than regular cash
dividends or any transaction similar to the foregoing, the Administrator in its sole discretion and without liability to any person shall make such substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems to be equitable, as to (i) the number or kind of
Units or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan or pursuant to outstanding Awards, (ii) the maximum number of Units for which Options or Unit Appreciation Rights may be granted during a calendar year to any
Participant (iii) the maximum amount of a Performance-Based Award that may be granted during a calendar year to any Participant, (iv) the Option Price or exercise price of any unit appreciation right and/or (v) any other affected
terms of such Awards. 
 (b) Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control after the Effective Date, (i) if
determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement or otherwise, any outstanding Awards then held by Participants which are unexercisable or otherwise unvested or subject to lapse restrictions shall automatically be deemed exercisable
or otherwise vested or no longer subject to lapse restrictions, as the case may be, as of immediately prior to such Change of Control and (ii) the Administrator may, but shall not be obligated to, (A) accelerate, vest or cause the
restrictions to lapse with respect to all or any portion of an Award, (B) cancel such Awards for fair value (as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator) which, in the case of Options and Unit Appreciation Rights, may equal the
excess, if any, of value of the consideration to be paid in the Change in Control transaction to holders of the same number of Units subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the
Fair Market Value of the Units subject to such Options or Unit Appreciation Rights) over the aggregate exercise price of such Options or Unit Appreciation Rights, (C) provide for the issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially
preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Awards previously granted hereunder as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion or (D) provide that for a period of at least 15 days prior to the Change in Control, such
Options shall be exercisable as to all shares subject thereto and that upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, such Options shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. 

  
 11 









 SECTION 10. Amendments or Termination. 

(a) Subject to obtaining any necessary consent or authorization from the Board and the General Partner, the Administrator may amend, alter
or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made without the consent of a Participant, if such action would diminish any of the rights of the Participant under any Award theretofore granted to such Participant
under the Plan; provided, however, that the Administrator may amend the Plan in such manner as it deems necessary to permit the granting of Awards meeting the requirements of the Code or other applicable laws (including, without
limitation, to avoid adverse tax consequences to the Company or to Participants). 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision of the
Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Administrator determines that any amounts payable hereunder will be taxable to a Participant under Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance prior to payment to such
Participant of such amount, the Company may (a) adopt such amendments to the Plan and Awards and appropriate policies and procedures, including amendments and policies with retroactive effect, that the Administrator determines necessary or
appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided by the Plan and Awards hereunder and/or (b) take such other actions as the Administrator determines necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of an additional
tax under Section 409A of the Code. 
 SECTION 11. Unfunded Status of Plan. 

(a) The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made
to a Participant by the Company or OCGH, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or OCGH. 

SECTION 12. Withholding Taxes. 
 (a) Each Participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award first becomes includible in the gross income of the Participant for federal and/or state income tax purposes, pay to
the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Award. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be
conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. Whenever cash is to be paid
pursuant to an Award granted hereunder, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever Units are to be delivered pursuant to an
award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. With the approval of the Administrator, a
Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery of Units or by delivering already owned unrestricted Units, in each case, having a value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be
withheld. Such Units shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.

Fractional Unit amounts shall be settled in cash. Such an election may be made with respect to all or any portion of the Units to be delivered pursuant to an award. The Company may also use any
other method of obtaining the necessary payment or proceeds, as permitted by law, to satisfy its withholding obligation with respect to any Option or other Award. 
 SECTION 13. General Provisions. 
 (a) The Plan shall be binding on all
successors and assigns of the Company and a Participant, including without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or representative of the
Participant’s creditors 
 (b) Except as otherwise permitted herein or in the applicable Award Agreement, an Award shall not
be transferable or assignable by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. An Award exercisable after the death of a Participant may be exercised by the legatees, personal representatives or distributees of
the Participant. 
 (c) With respect to Participants who reside or work outside the United States of America, the Administrator
may, in its sole discretion, amend the terms of the Plan or Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the requirements of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for a Participant, the Company
or an Affiliate. 
 (d) The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without
regard to conflicts of laws. 
 (e) The adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued
employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment or
service of any Person at any time. No Participant or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions
of Awards and the Administrator’s determinations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant (whether or not such Participants are similarly situated). 

SECTION 14. Effective Date. 
 (a) The Plan became effective upon adoption by the Board and the General Partner (the “Effective Date”). 
 SECTION 15. Term of Plan. 
 (a) No award shall be granted pursuant to the
Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date. 

  
 13 









 SECTION 16. Section 409A. 

(a) To the extent applicable, this Plan and Awards issued hereunder shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code
and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretative guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding other provisions of the Plan
or any Award Agreements thereunder, no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a
Participant. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Administrator that, as a result of Section 409A of the Code, payments in respect of any Award under the Plan may not be made at the time contemplated by the terms of the Plan or
the relevant Award agreement, as the case may be, without causing the Participant holding such Award to be subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code, the Company will make such payment on the first day that would not result in the
Participant incurring any tax liability under Section 409A of the Code. The Administrator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement the provisions of this Section 16 in good faith; provided that neither the Company, the
Administrator nor any of the Company’s employees, directors or representatives shall have any liability to Participants with respect to this Section 16.

 GRANT AGREEMENT 

This GRANT AGREEMENT (as may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time
to time, this “Agreement”) is effective as of January 1, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and among OAKTREE CAPITAL GROUP HOLDINGS, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), OAKTREE CAPITAL GROUP HOLDINGS GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (in its capacity as the general
partner of the Partnership, the “General Partner”), and                     , an individual (the
“Participant”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, dated as of March 28, 2008
(as may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Partnership Agreement”). 

Recitals 

WHEREAS, the Oaktree Capital Group 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted for purposes of
promoting the long-term financial interests and growth of the Oaktree Group by, among other things, providing select investment professionals, other employees, directors and consultants of the Oaktree Group with equity-based awards based upon Units;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Administrator (as defined under the Plan) is authorized to administer the Plan and has
approved the grant and issuance of the Granted Units (as defined below) to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of the Grant Documents (as defined below). 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties
hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 
 Agreement 

1. Grant of Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Partnership Agreement and the other Grant
Documents: 
 (a) the Partnership hereby grants and issues to the Participant, and the Participant hereby accepts
and receives from the Partnership,          Units (the “Granted Units”); 
 (b) if the Participant is not already a Limited Partner, then the Participant is hereby admitted as a Limited Partner, and each of the General Partner, the Partnership and the Participant hereby consents
to such admission; 
 (c) the Participant hereby acknowledges that he or she has received and has reviewed
carefully a copy of (i) the Partnership Agreement, the current form of which is 







 
attached as Exhibit A hereto, (ii) the Exchange Agreement, the current form of which is attached as Exhibit B hereto, (iii) the Tax Receivable Agreement, the
current form of which is attached as Exhibit C hereto, (iv) the Plan, the current form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, and (v) each other agreement, instrument or document required by any Oaktree Group
Member to be executed and delivered by the Participant in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, including the Partnership Agreement, the Exchange Agreement, the Tax Receivable Agreement, and the Plan, the
“Grant Documents”); and 
 (d) if the Participant is not already a party to the Partnership
Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the Tax Receivable Agreement, then the Participant hereby joins as a party to, and agrees to be bound by each and every provision of, the Partnership Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the Tax Receivable
Agreement. 
 2. Vesting of Units. Each Granted Unit shall be unvested as of the Effective Date. Twenty percent
(20%) of the Granted Units shall vest on January 1, 2012, and an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Granted Units shall vest on each of (a) January 1, 2013, (b) January 1, 2014,
(c) January 1, 2015, and (d) January 1, 2016, in each case, unless forfeited pursuant to Paragraph 3 below or accelerated pursuant to Section 4.4(e) of the Partnership Agreement. 

3. Forfeiture of Units. The Granted Units are subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 4.5 of the Partnership
Agreement. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, and except as otherwise determined by the General Partner, if the Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group (other than as a result of his or her Incapacitation), for
any reason or no reason at all (including termination of such services by any Oaktree Group Member without Cause), then all unvested Granted Units of the Participant shall be immediately and automatically forfeited on the effective date the
Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group. 
 4. Participant’s Obligation to Pay Taxes. The
Participant shall be responsible for any and all taxes relating to the Granted Units, including amounts due upon the vesting of any Granted Units or relating to allocations of income with respect to the Granted Units. Without limiting
Section 7.8 of the Partnership Agreement, the Participant hereby agrees that the Partnership has the right to require reimbursement from the Participant of any such taxes that are paid by the Partnership and to deduct any such taxes from any
payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant, including as necessary to satisfy any foreign, U.S. federal, state or local withholding tax requirements and from payments receivable by the Participant under the Grant Documents. As security for
the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all of the Participant’s obligations under this Paragraph 4 (including its obligation to reimburse the Partnership for any such taxes that are paid by the Partnership),
the Participant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Partnership a security interest in the Granted Units and on all proceeds directly or indirectly receivable by the Partnership in respect of the Granted Units (including any
distributions by the Partnership to the Participant in respect of the Granted Units and any proceeds receivable by the Participant in connection with the sale of the Granted Units). The Participant shall take such actions as the Partnership may
request 

  
 - 2 -









 
from time to time to perfect or enforce such security interest and to otherwise maintain such security interest as a first priority lien in favor of the Partnership. 

5. Certain Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. As an essential inducement to the Partnership to grant
and issue the Granted Units to the Participant, the Participant hereby represents and warrants to the Oaktree Group as follows: 
 (a) Authority and Capacity. The Participant has the legal capacity to execute and deliver each Grant Document and to perform all of his or her obligations thereunder. The Participant has duly
executed and delivered this Agreement, and each Grant Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Participant, enforceable against the Participant in accordance with their respective terms. 

(b) No Conflict; Satisfaction of Conditions to Membership Transactions. Neither the execution and delivery by the
Participant of any Grant Document, nor the performance by the Participant of his or her obligations thereunder, violates, conflicts with or constitutes a default or breach under, or will violate, conflict with or constitute a default or breach under
any applicable law or any contract, indenture, agreement, instrument or mortgage binding on the Participant or any of his or her properties. To the best knowledge of the Participant, neither the grant and issuance of the Granted Units to the
Participant, nor the investment by the Participant in the Granted Units, nor the admission of the Participant as a Limited Partner: 
  

	 	(i)	would reasonably be expected to result in the violation by the Partnership, the General Partner or any other Oaktree Group Member or Oaktree Related Person (as defined
below) of any applicable law, including any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws; 

  

	 	(ii)	would reasonably be expected to terminate the existence or qualification of the Partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction; 


 

	 	(iii)	would reasonably be expected to cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (to the extent not already so treated or taxed); or 

  

	 	(iv)	would reasonably be expected to subject the Partnership, the General Partner or any other Oaktree Group Member or General Partner Related Person to any material
regulatory requirement to which it, he or she otherwise would not be subject, including any requirement that the Partnership register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act or as a result of all or any portion of the
Partnership’s assets becoming or being deemed to be “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA. 

 (c) Suitability. The Participant meets all suitability standards or eligibility requirements imposed by the jurisdiction of his or her residence for his or her acquisition


  
 - 3 -









 
of the Granted Units pursuant to the Grant Documents. The Participant has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he or she is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Granted Units and protecting his or her own interests in connection with such investment. 
 (d) Access to Information. The Participant (i) has been provided with ample opportunity to discuss each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree Business (as defined below)
with the General Partner and to ask the General Partner such questions regarding each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree Business, and to receive such answers to such questions and such other information, as the Participant deems
necessary, appropriate or advisable, and (ii) has been provided with ample opportunity to consult with such legal, tax, financial and other advisors of the Participant regarding each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree
Business as the Participant deems necessary, appropriate or advisable. The Participant has a preexisting personal and business relationship with the principals of the Oaktree Group, and such personal and business relationship is of a nature and
duration so as to enable the Participant to be aware of their character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances. 
 (e) Independent Investment Decision. The Participant is relying on his or her own independent investigation and the information contained in the Grant Documents, and the Participant is not relying
on any Person (other than his or her own legal, tax, financial and other advisors) or any representation or warranty made by any Oaktree Related Person, in each case, in deciding to own and hold the Granted Units. Without limiting the foregoing, no
representation or warranty has been made to the Participant by any Oaktree Related Person as to the existing value or the future performance of the Oaktree Business. 

(f) Investment Intent. The Participant will own and hold the Granted Units for his or her own account, as a
principal, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale or distribution, in whole or in part. No other Person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Granted Units (other than, if the Participant is a married
natural person acquiring the Granted Units as community property, the community property interest of the Participant’s spouse). The Participant is not acting as an agent, representative, intermediary or nominee, or in any similar capacity, for
or on behalf of any other Person with respect to any Granted Units. 
 (g) Restricted Securities. The
Participant understands that the grant and issuance hereunder of the Granted Units are intended to be exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), state securities laws and other
applicable foreign or domestic securities laws. The Participant further understands that the Granted Units have not been recommended or endorsed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission or any other foreign or
domestic governmental authority. No Transfer of the Granted Units will be made by the Participant except for Transfers that comply with all applicable laws, including the Securities Act, and the provisions of the Grant Documents, including the
restrictions on Transfer set forth in Section 4.6 of the Partnership Agreement. Although 

  
 - 4 -









 
the Grant Documents contemplate that the Participant will be able to monetize vested Granted Units pursuant to Article VI of the Partnership Agreement and the provisions of the Exchange
Agreement, the Participant understands that there is no assurance that (i) the Participant will actually be able to monetize, Transfer or otherwise realize value from such Granted Units and (ii) any such monetization,
Transfer or other realization will be at a price or upon terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the Participant. The Participant further understands that Oaktree Group is under no obligation to ensure (i) that any Issuer Equity
will continue to be tradable on the GSTrUE OTC market or any other market or trading platform or (ii) that other avenues of liquidity will be made available to the Participant with respect to the Granted Units. The Participant is able
and willing to bear, and has the financial ability to bear, the economic and other risks of his or her ownership in the Granted Units for an indefinite period of time. The Participant has no need for liquidity with respect to the Granted Units.

 (h) Accredited Investor. The Participant is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Without limiting the foregoing, the Participant is a natural person, who (i) has a net worth individually or jointly with his or her spouse that exceeds $1,000,000 at the
time of the grant and issuance of the Granted Units (excluding the value of the Participant’s primary residence and the related amount of indebtedness secured by the primary residence up to the fair market value of the residence, and deducting
as a liability any indebtedness secured by the residence in excess of the fair market value of the residence) or (ii) had annual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent calendar years (e.g., if the current calendar
year is 2011, then in each of 2010 and 2009) and reasonably expects to have income in excess of $200,000 in the current calendar year; or (iii) had annual income jointly with his or her spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of the two
most recent calendar years (e.g., if the current calendar year is 2011, then in each of 2010 and 2009) and reasonably expects to have joint income in excess of $300,000 in the current calendar year. 

(i) Tax Consequences. The Participant understands that his or her investment in the Granted Units may cause him or
her adverse tax consequences, including the realization of taxable income without receiving cash distributions to pay the required tax thereon. For example, the Participant may be taxed upon the vesting of the Granted Units on the value of the
vesting Granted Units. Moreover, although it is contemplated that the Partnership will make cash distributions in respect of the Granted Units from time to time, the Participant understands that there is no obligation for the Partnership to make any
distribution (including tax distributions) to its Limited Partners (including the Participant). The Participant further understands that even if the Partnership were to make cash distributions from time to time, there is no assurance that such cash
distributions will be made in sufficient amounts or at an opportune time so as to enable the Participant to pay in a timely manner any taxes that the Participant may be required to pay in respect of the Granted Units. The Participant has sufficient
liquid resources to pay all taxes that the Participant may be required to pay in respect of the Granted Units, including all taxes arising from the vesting of the Granted Units or allocations of taxable income of the Partnership to the Participant
with respect to the Granted Units. The Participant has reviewed his or her investment in the Granted Units with his or her tax 

  
 - 5 -









 
advisors and has not received or relied upon any tax advice from any Oaktree Related Person. No Oaktree Related Person has made any representation or warranty (and shall not otherwise be liable
to the Participant) as to the tax treatment of vesting, allocations or distributions with respect to the Granted Units under applicable law. 
 (j) Understanding of Grant Documents. The Participant understands each provision of each Grant Document and the terms and conditions of the Granted Units. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Participant understands that: 
  

	 	(i)	the Participant has irrevocably constituted and appointed each of the Partnership, the General Partner, their respective authorized officers and attorneys-in-fact, and
the members of the General Partner with full power of substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of the Participant as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Partnership Agreement for the purposes set forth therein;


  

	 	(ii)	the Partnership Agreement permits the Partnership to issue, at any time and from time to time, without the approval of the Participant or the need to notify the
Participant, additional Units on such terms and conditions as the General Partner may determine, including Units that may be senior or superior to the Granted Units; 


 

	 	(iii)	the Participant does not have any preemptive rights, right of first refusal, right of first offer or other right of participation with respect to any such issuance, and
such issuances are expected to have a dilutive effect on the Participant’s interest in the Partnership; 

  

	 	(iv)	amounts distributable to the Participant in respect of the Granted Units are subject to withholding pursuant to Sections 7.8 and 7.9 of the Partnership Agreement; and


  

	 	(v)	the Participant, as a Service Partner, is subject to the restrictive covenants set forth in Article X of the Partnership Agreement, which includes covenants and
prohibitions to which the Participant will continue to be bound after the Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group. 

 The Participant has given careful consideration to all of the provisions of the Grant Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Participant
(x) has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon him or her under the Grant Documents, including under Articles IV and X of the Partnership Agreement, (y) is in full accord as to the necessity of such
provisions, and (z) understand that his or her agreement to be bound by each such provision is an essential inducement to the Partnership to grant and issue the Granted Units to the Participant. 

If the Participant becomes aware that any representation or warranty made by him or her in any Grant Document would be incorrect in any material respect
if such representation or warranty 

  
 - 6 -









 
were to be made as of any subsequent date, or that the Participant is unable fulfill or perform in any material respect any of his or her covenants or agreements in any Grant Document, the
Participant shall promptly notify the General Partner of such inaccuracy or inability. 
 6. Incorporation of Partnership
Agreement Provisions. The provisions of Article XII of the Partnership Agreement (other than Sections 12.3 of the Partnership Agreement) are hereby incorporated herein by reference and shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement. Without
limiting the foregoing: 
 (a) any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Partnership Agreement; 
 (b) this Agreement may
be amended, modified, or waived with the written consent of the General Partner; provided that if any such amendment, modification, or waiver would adversely affect the Participant in any material respect, such amendment, modification, or
waiver shall also require the written consent of the Participant; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership Agreement may be amended, modified and waived pursuant to Section 12.5 of the Partnership
Agreement, and the Plan may be amended, modified and waived pursuant to Section 10 of the Plan, and, in each case, no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be deemed to be an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement;

 (c) any notice that is required or permitted hereunder to be given to any party hereto shall be given pursuant
to Section 12.6 of the Partnership Agreement; 
 (d) in accordance with Section 12.9 of the Partnership
Agreement, 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 Paragraph 6(a) shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq., and not the laws of the State of
Delaware; and 
 (e) in accordance with Section 12.12 of the Partnership Agreement, this Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 7. Entire
Agreement. The Grant Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding among them with respect to such matter; provided
that in the event of any conflict between the Exchange Agreement and the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership Agreement shall prevail. 
 8. Interpretation and Certain Definitions.

Recitals 

WHEREAS, the Oaktree Capital Group 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted for purposes of
promoting the long-term financial interests and growth of the Oaktree Group by, among other things, providing select investment professionals, other employees, directors and consultants of the Oaktree Group with equity-based awards based upon Units;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Administrator (as defined under the Plan) is authorized to administer the Plan and has
approved the grant and issuance of the Granted Units (as defined below) to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of the Grant Documents (as defined below). 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties
hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 
 Agreement 

1. Grant of Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Partnership Agreement and the other Grant
Documents: 
 (a) the Partnership hereby grants and issues to the Participant, and the Participant hereby accepts
and receives from the Partnership,          Units (the “Granted Units”); 
 (b) if the Participant is not already a Limited Partner, then the Participant is hereby admitted as a Limited Partner, and each of the General Partner, the Partnership and the Participant hereby consents
to such admission; 
 (c) the Participant hereby acknowledges that he or she has received and has reviewed
carefully a copy of (i) the Partnership Agreement, the current form of which is 







 
attached as Exhibit A hereto, (ii) the Exchange Agreement, the current form of which is attached as Exhibit B hereto, (iii) the Tax Receivable Agreement, the
current form of which is attached as Exhibit C hereto, (iv) the Plan, the current form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, and (v) each other agreement, instrument or document required by any Oaktree Group
Member to be executed and delivered by the Participant in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, including the Partnership Agreement, the Exchange Agreement, the Tax Receivable Agreement, and the Plan, the
“Grant Documents”); and 
 (d) if the Participant is not already a party to the Partnership
Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the Tax Receivable Agreement, then the Participant hereby joins as a party to, and agrees to be bound by each and every provision of, the Partnership Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the Tax Receivable
Agreement. 
 2. Vesting of Units. Each Granted Unit shall be unvested as of the Effective Date. Ten percent
(10%) of the Granted Units shall vest on January 1, 2012, and an additional ten percent (10%) of the Granted Units shall vest on January 1 of each calendar year thereafter until the Granted Units are fully vested on
January 1, 2021, in each case, unless forfeited pursuant to Paragraph 3 below or accelerated pursuant to Section 4.4(e) of the Partnership Agreement. 
 3. Forfeiture of Units. The Granted Units are subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 4.5 of the Partnership Agreement. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, and except
as otherwise determined by the General Partner, if the Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group (other than as a result of his or her Incapacitation), for any reason or no reason at all (including termination of such services by
any Oaktree Group Member without Cause), then all unvested Granted Units of the Participant shall be immediately and automatically forfeited on the effective date the Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group. 

4. Participant’s Obligation to Pay Taxes. The Participant shall be responsible for any and all taxes relating to the
Granted Units, including amounts due upon the vesting of any Granted Units or relating to allocations of income with respect to the Granted Units. Without limiting Section 7.8 of the Partnership Agreement, the Participant hereby agrees that the
Partnership has the right to require reimbursement from the Participant of any such taxes that are paid by the Partnership and to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant, including as necessary to satisfy
any foreign, U.S. federal, state or local withholding tax requirements and from payments receivable by the Participant under the Grant Documents. As security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all of the
Participant’s obligations under this Paragraph 4 (including its obligation to reimburse the Partnership for any such taxes that are paid by the Partnership), the Participant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the
Partnership a security interest in the Granted Units and on all proceeds directly or indirectly receivable by the Partnership in respect of the Granted Units (including any distributions by the Partnership to the Participant in respect of the
Granted Units and any proceeds receivable by the Participant in connection with the sale of the Granted Units). The Participant shall take such actions as the Partnership may request 







 
from time to time to perfect or enforce such security interest and to otherwise maintain such security interest as a first priority lien in favor of the Partnership. 

5. Certain Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Agreements. As an essential inducement to the Partnership to grant
and issue the Granted Units to the Participant, the Participant hereby represents and warrants to the Oaktree Group as follows: 
 (a) Authority and Capacity. The Participant has the legal capacity to execute and deliver each Grant Document and to perform all of his or her obligations thereunder. The Participant has duly
executed and delivered this Agreement, and each Grant Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Participant, enforceable against the Participant in accordance with their respective terms. 

(b) No Conflict; Satisfaction of Conditions to Membership Transactions. Neither the execution and delivery by the
Participant of any Grant Document, nor the performance by the Participant of his or her obligations thereunder, violates, conflicts with or constitutes a default or breach under, or will violate, conflict with or constitute a default or breach under
any applicable law or any contract, indenture, agreement, instrument or mortgage binding on the Participant or any of his or her properties. To the best knowledge of the Participant, neither the grant and issuance of the Granted Units to the
Participant, nor the investment by the Participant in the Granted Units, nor the admission of the Participant as a Limited Partner: 
  

	 	(i)	would reasonably be expected to result in the violation by the Partnership, the General Partner or any other Oaktree Group Member or Oaktree Related Person (as defined
below) of any applicable law, including any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws; 

  

	 	(ii)	would reasonably be expected to terminate the existence or qualification of the Partnership under the laws of any jurisdiction; 


 

	 	(iii)	would reasonably be expected to cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (to the extent not already so treated or taxed); or 

  

	 	(iv)	would reasonably be expected to subject the Partnership, the General Partner or any other Oaktree Group Member or General Partner Related Person to any material
regulatory requirement to which it, he or she otherwise would not be subject, including any requirement that the Partnership register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act or as a result of all or any portion of the
Partnership’s assets becoming or being deemed to be “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA. 

 (c) Suitability. The Participant meets all suitability standards or eligibility requirements imposed by the jurisdiction of his or her residence for his or her acquisition








 
of the Granted Units pursuant to the Grant Documents. The Participant has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he or she is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Granted Units and protecting his or her own interests in connection with such investment. 
 (d) Access to Information. The Participant (i) has been provided with ample opportunity to discuss each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree Business (as defined below)
with the General Partner and to ask the General Partner such questions regarding each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree Business, and to receive such answers to such questions and such other information, as the Participant deems
necessary, appropriate or advisable, and (ii) has been provided with ample opportunity to consult with such legal, tax, financial and other advisors of the Participant regarding each Grant Document, the Granted Units and the Oaktree
Business as the Participant deems necessary, appropriate or advisable. The Participant has a preexisting personal and business relationship with the principals of the Oaktree Group, and such personal and business relationship is of a nature and
duration so as to enable the Participant to be aware of their character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances. 
 (e) Independent Investment Decision. The Participant is relying on his or her own independent investigation and the information contained in the Grant Documents, and the Participant is not relying
on any Person (other than his or her own legal, tax, financial and other advisors) or any representation or warranty made by any Oaktree Related Person, in each case, in deciding to own and hold the Granted Units. Without limiting the foregoing, no
representation or warranty has been made to the Participant by any Oaktree Related Person as to the existing value or the future performance of the Oaktree Business. 

(f) Investment Intent. The Participant will own and hold the Granted Units for his or her own account, as a
principal, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale or distribution, in whole or in part. No other Person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Granted Units (other than, if the Participant is a married
natural person acquiring the Granted Units as community property, the community property interest of the Participant’s spouse). The Participant is not acting as an agent, representative, intermediary or nominee, or in any similar capacity, for
or on behalf of any other Person with respect to any Granted Units. 
 (g) Restricted Securities. The
Participant understands that the grant and issuance hereunder of the Granted Units are intended to be exempt from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), state securities laws and other
applicable foreign or domestic securities laws. The Participant further understands that the Granted Units have not been recommended or endorsed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission or any other foreign or
domestic governmental authority. No Transfer of the Granted Units will be made by the Participant except for Transfers that comply with all applicable laws, including the Securities Act, and the provisions of the Grant Documents, including the
restrictions on Transfer set forth in Section 4.6 of the Partnership Agreement. Although 







 
the Grant Documents contemplate that the Participant will be able to monetize vested Granted Units pursuant to Article VI of the Partnership Agreement and the provisions of the Exchange
Agreement, the Participant understands that there is no assurance that (i) the Participant will actually be able to monetize, Transfer or otherwise realize value from such Granted Units and (ii) any such monetization,
Transfer or other realization will be at a price or upon terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the Participant. The Participant further understands that Oaktree Group is under no obligation to ensure (i) that any Issuer Equity
will continue to be tradable on the GSTrUE OTC market or any other market or trading platform or (ii) that other avenues of liquidity will be made available to the Participant with respect to the Granted Units. The Participant is able
and willing to bear, and has the financial ability to bear, the economic and other risks of his or her ownership in the Granted Units for an indefinite period of time. The Participant has no need for liquidity with respect to the Granted Units.

 (h) Accredited Investor. The Participant is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of
Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Without limiting the foregoing, the Participant is a natural person, who (i) has a net worth individually or jointly with his or her spouse that exceeds $1,000,000 at the
time of the grant and issuance of the Granted Units (excluding the value of the Participant’s primary residence and the related amount of indebtedness secured by the primary residence up to the fair market value of the residence, and deducting
as a liability any indebtedness secured by the residence in excess of the fair market value of the residence) or (ii) had annual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent calendar years (e.g., if the current calendar
year is 2011, then in each of 2010 and 2009) and reasonably expects to have income in excess of $200,000 in the current calendar year; or (iii) had annual income jointly with his or her spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of the two
most recent calendar years (e.g., if the current calendar year is 2011, then in each of 2010 and 2009) and reasonably expects to have joint income in excess of $300,000 in the current calendar year. 

(i) Tax Consequences. The Participant understands that his or her investment in the Granted Units may cause him or
her adverse tax consequences, including the realization of taxable income without receiving cash distributions to pay the required tax thereon. For example, the Participant may be taxed upon the vesting of the Granted Units on the value of the
vesting Granted Units. Moreover, although it is contemplated that the Partnership will make cash distributions in respect of the Granted Units from time to time, the Participant understands that there is no obligation for the Partnership to make any
distribution (including tax distributions) to its Limited Partners (including the Participant). The Participant further understands that even if the Partnership were to make cash distributions from time to time, there is no assurance that such cash
distributions will be made in sufficient amounts or at an opportune time so as to enable the Participant to pay in a timely manner any taxes that the Participant may be required to pay in respect of the Granted Units. The Participant has sufficient
liquid resources to pay all taxes that the Participant may be required to pay in respect of the Granted Units, including all taxes arising from the vesting of the Granted Units or allocations of taxable income of the Partnership to the Participant
with respect to the Granted Units. The Participant has reviewed his or her investment in the Granted Units with his or her tax 







 
advisors and has not received or relied upon any tax advice from any Oaktree Related Person. No Oaktree Related Person has made any representation or warranty (and shall not otherwise be liable
to the Participant) as to the tax treatment of vesting, allocations or distributions with respect to the Granted Units under applicable law. 
 (j) Understanding of Grant Documents. The Participant understands each provision of each Grant Document and the terms and conditions of the Granted Units. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Participant understands that: 
  

	 	(i)	the Participant has irrevocably constituted and appointed each of the Partnership, the General Partner, their respective authorized officers and attorneys-in-fact, and
the members of the General Partner with full power of substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of the Participant as set forth in Section 3.9 of the Partnership Agreement for the purposes set forth therein;


  

	 	(ii)	the Partnership Agreement permits the Partnership to issue, at any time and from time to time, without the approval of the Participant or the need to notify the
Participant, additional Units on such terms and conditions as the General Partner may determine, including Units that may be senior or superior to the Granted Units; 


 

	 	(iii)	the Participant does not have any preemptive rights, right of first refusal, right of first offer or other right of participation with respect to any such issuance, and
such issuances are expected to have a dilutive effect on the Participant’s interest in the Partnership; 

  

	 	(iv)	amounts distributable to the Participant in respect of the Granted Units are subject to withholding pursuant to Sections 7.8 and 7.9 of the Partnership Agreement; and


  

	 	(v)	the Participant, as a Service Partner, is subject to the restrictive covenants set forth in Article X of the Partnership Agreement, which includes covenants and
prohibitions to which the Participant will continue to be bound after the Participant ceases to provide services to the Oaktree Group. 

 The Participant has given careful consideration to all of the provisions of the Grant Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Participant
(x) has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon him or her under the Grant Documents, including under Articles IV and X of the Partnership Agreement, (y) is in full accord as to the necessity of such
provisions, and (z) understand that his or her agreement to be bound by each such provision is an essential inducement to the Partnership to grant and issue the Granted Units to the Participant. 

If the Participant becomes aware that any representation or warranty made by him or her in any Grant Document would be incorrect in any material respect
if such representation or warranty 







 
were to be made as of any subsequent date, or that the Participant is unable fulfill or perform in any material respect any of his or her covenants or agreements in any Grant Document, the
Participant shall promptly notify the General Partner of such inaccuracy or inability. 
 6. Incorporation of Partnership
Agreement Provisions. The provisions of Article XII of the Partnership Agreement (other than Sections 12.3 of the Partnership Agreement) are hereby incorporated herein by reference and shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement. Without
limiting the foregoing: 
 (a) any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Partnership Agreement; 
 (b) this Agreement may
be amended, modified, or waived with the written consent of the General Partner; provided that if any such amendment, modification, or waiver would adversely affect the Participant in any material respect, such amendment, modification, or
waiver shall also require the written consent of the Participant; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership Agreement may be amended, modified and waived pursuant to Section 12.5 of the Partnership
Agreement, and the Plan may be amended, modified and waived pursuant to Section 10 of the Plan, and, in each case, no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be deemed to be an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement;

 (c) any notice that is required or permitted hereunder to be given to any party hereto shall be given pursuant
to Section 12.6 of the Partnership Agreement;

the State of Delaware by residents of the State of Delaware; provided that the enforceability of Paragraph 6(a) shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq., and not the laws of the State of
Delaware; and 
 (e) in accordance with Section 12.12 of the Partnership Agreement, this Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 7. Entire
Agreement. The Grant Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding among them with respect to such matter; provided
that in the event of any conflict between the Exchange Agreement and the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership Agreement shall prevail.
