 EXCHANGES 
 Section 2.1 Exchange Procedure. 

(a) Application of Exchange Procedures. In applying this Article II and the other provisions of this Agreement (including for
purposes of determining the Exchange Price and the form of consideration to be paid with respect to any Exchange), Oaktree may, in its sole discretion, (i) divide any Exchange into, and treat such Exchange as if it were, two or
more separate Exchanges, and (ii) combine any number of Exchanges into, and otherwise treat such Exchanges as if they were part of, a single Exchange. 
 (b) Exchanges of OCGH Units. On the Exchange Date, (i) the Intermediate Holding Companies shall purchase from the OCGH Limited Partner who has elected to make an Exchange pursuant to this
Agreement, and (ii) such OCGH Limited Partner shall sell to the Intermediate Holding Companies, such number of OCGH Units that the General Partner has determined, pursuant to the OCGH Partnership Agreement, that such OCGH Limited Partner is
eligible to sell, including after giving effect to any limits imposed by the General Partner under the OCGH Partnership Agreement on the number of OCGH Units eligible for sale. As consideration for such sale, each Intermediate Holding Company shall
pay the OCGH Limited Partner a pro rata portion of the Exchange Price (which shall be determined based on the relative values of the OpCos held by each Intermediate Holding Company immediately prior to such sale and which shall be delivered in the
form of Class A Units, cash, other consideration or any combination of the foregoing, at Oaktree’s election) in exchange for a pro rata portion of the OCGH Units being sold by such OCGH Limited Partner. 

(c) Redemption of OCGH Units. On the Exchange Date, immediately following the exchange of OCGH Units pursuant to
Section 2.1(b) hereof, OCGH may, at its discretion, redeem each OCGH Unit received by the Intermediate Holding Companies pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and deliver to each Intermediate Holding Company a pro rata share of the partnership units
of each OpCo, such that the aggregate number of OpCo Units issued in the redemption comprises the Equivalent OpCo Units of the OCGH Units being redeemed. 
 (d) Exchange of OpCo Units. On the Exchange Date, immediately following the redemption of OCGH Units by OCGH pursuant to Section 2.1(c) hereof, each Intermediate Holding Company may, at its
discretion, exchange OpCo Units with each other Intermediate Holding Company such that, immediately after such exchange, each Intermediate Holding Company holds OpCo Units only in the OpCo for which such Intermediate Holding Company serves as the
general partner (or equivalent). 
 (e) Concurrent Exchanges. The obligation, if any, of the Intermediate Holding
Companies to effect an Exchange under this Agreement represents a several, and not a joint and several, obligation of the Intermediate Holding Companies. 
 (f) Cancellation of Class B Units. Pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Oaktree Operating Agreement, on the Exchange Date, a number of Class B Units equal to the number of









  
 6

shall be automatically canceled without any further action by any party. 
 (g) Board of Directors Approval.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement to which any OCGH Limited Partner may from time to time be a party, (i) no Exchange shall be consummated without the prior approval of the board of directors of

other manner as Oaktree shall determine in its discretion. 
 (b) Absence of Injunctions or Decrees. The obligations of
the parties to this Agreement to consummate an Exchange shall be subject to the condition that there shall be no injunction, restraining order or decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity that is in effect that restrains or prohibits such
Exchange. 
 (c) Exchange Deliveries. At each Closing, with respect to each OCGH Limited Partner participating in such
Closing:

delivery of on its behalf, to the Paying Agent the number of OCGH Units to be sold by such OCGH Limited Partner; 

(ii) each Intermediate Holding Company shall deliver to the Paying Agent its pro rata portion of the Exchange Price
(either in cash, Class A Units, other consideration or any combination of the foregoing, as the case may be) for the number of OCGH Units being acquired by such Intermediate Holding Company; 

(iii) Oaktree shall deliver, or shall instruct the delivery of on its behalf, to the Paying Agent an amount of cash,

 7

of Oaktree, the board of directors of Oaktree (or a duly authorized committee of such board of directors), the General Partner, OCGH, an Intermediate Holding Company or a designee of any of the foregoing that are within such Person’s authority
hereunder (including, without limitation, any calculations of the Exchange Price for any Equivalent OpCo Units in connection with any Exchange) shall be binding and conclusive on an OCGH Limited Partner absent manifest error. In connection with any

the provisions of this Agreement, in such a manner as it determines to be fair and equitable, and such resolution or interpretation shall be binding and conclusive on an OCGH Limited Partner absent manifest error. 

Section 2.4 Non-Exclusive Exchange Method. The parties hereto specifically agree that the provisions of this Article II are not
the exclusive method by which OCGH Units may be exchanged for Class A Units, cash, other consideration or any combination of the foregoing, and that Oaktree, OCGH and the relevant OCGH Limited Partner may agree, on a case-by-case basis, to

Section 3.2 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. 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. 
 Section 3.3 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 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) Oaktree shall cause any new Intermediate Holding Company 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. 








  
 9 

 (c) Any joinder of parties to this Agreement permitted or required by this Section 3.3
shall be effective notwithstanding Section 3.10. 
 Section 3.4 Transaction Expenses. All expenses incurred in
connection with the Exchange, including, without limitation, all fees and expenses resulting from a registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (if the board of directors of Oaktree deems it advisable to register such Exchange or
resulting resale of Class A Units in order to comply with applicable United States securities laws and regulations based on the advice of counsel), printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel to Oaktree, OCGH and the Intermediate
Holding Companies, and fees of the independent certified public accountants, and the expense of qualifying such Class A Units under blue sky laws, will be borne by Oaktree; provided, however, that (i) any broker fees,
commissions or underwriting discounts incurred in connection with selling Class A Units for the account of an OCGH Limited Partner and (ii) 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 3.5 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. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if any of the provisions of
Section 3.14 shall be held to exceed the limitations on scope, duration or geographic area prescribed under applicable law, then such provision shall be deemed to have been amended automatically to reduce such scope, duration or geographic
area, as the case may be, to the extent necessary (if possible), and only to such extent, to enable such provision to be valid and permissible under such applicable law. 
 Section 3.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 3.7 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the OCGH Partnership Agreement together 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. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto, any rights or remedies hereunder. 








  
 10 

 Section 3.8 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. 

Section 3.9 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 3.10 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 3.10 Arbitration of Disputes. 
 (a) 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 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 3.10 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 3.1. 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 law 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 a JAMS’ panel of neutrals with experience in adjudicating matters under the law 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 3.10 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 3.10 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 








  
 11 

 
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 3.10 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 3.10 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 3.10, 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 3.10 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 3.10 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 3.10 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 3.11 Amendments; Waivers. 

(a) This Agreement may be amended, modified or waived at any time in writing by agreement of 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 3.12 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 Oaktree and OCGH. 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 3.13 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 Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the
Treasury Regulations (the “Regulations”). As required by the Code and the Regulations: (i) the parties shall report (I) an Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable sale of OCGH Units by an OCGH Limited Partner to the
respective Intermediate Holding Companies; (II) any redemption pursuant to Section 2.1(c) hereof as a redemption of the respective Intermediate Holding Company’s entire interest in OCGH and (III) any exchange of OpCo Units pursuant to
Section 2.1(d) as a taxable sale of the OpCo Units by the respective Intermediate Holding Company and (ii) no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.

 Section 3.14 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, 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, that 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). 
 Section 3.15 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.
