November 5, 2025

Dear Investor,

We are excited to announce today that Blue Owl Capital Corporation ("OBDC") (NYSE: OBDC) and Blue Owl Capital Corporation II ("OBDC II") have entered into a definitive merger agreement, with OBDC as the surviving company; subject to certain shareholder approvals and other customary closing conditions. Following the recommendation of each of their special committees, the boards of directors of OBDC and OBDC II have unanimously approved the transaction. The merger is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.

**No immediate action is required at this time.** In the next few months, all OBDC II shareholders will receive instructions explaining how they can vote on proposals relating to the proposed merger. In connection with the proposed merger, OBDC II plans to file a Proxy Statement and OBDC plans to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on Form N-14. We encourage investors to review these materials along with any subsequent SEC filings related to this merger announcement.

**Summary of the Merger Agreement** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• There will be no changes to either the management team or the investment strategy following the completion of the
proposed merger.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Under the terms of the proposed merger, shareholders of OBDC II will receive newly issued shares of OBDC for each
share of OBDC II based on the exchange ratio determined prior to closing. The exchange ratio will be calculated based upon (i) the NAV per share of OBDC and OBDC II as determined before merger close and (ii) the market price of shares of
OBDC no earlier than 48 hours prior to closing (excluding Sundays and holidays).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• OBDC II investors will only receive whole shares of OBDC. Any fractional shares calculated as a result of the
exchange ratio will be automatically redeemed and paid out in cash to the instructions on file at the time of the merger. If you would like to change your payment instructions, please complete and return the included OBDC II Account Maintenance
Form. As a reminder, payments for accounts held with a custodian must continue to be paid to that custodian.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Prior to the anticipated closing of the proposed merger, OBDC and OBDC II each intend to declare and pay ordinary
course dividends.

To the extent that you seek to reregister or transfer your shares of OBDC II common stock, OBDC II will generally not be able to complete such re-registrations or transfers if submitted within 6 weeks of the date that is set for the shareholder meeting to vote on the proposed merger.

Until the consummation of this proposed merger, OBDC II does not anticipate conducting additional tender offers.

In addition, dividends payable by OBDC II subsequent to December 6, 2025 will be paid only in cash, notwithstanding any election you made pursuant to OBDC II's amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan (the "OBDC II DRIP"). If the merger is consummated, OBDC II shareholders will be automatically enrolled in OBDC's amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan (the "OBDC DRIP"). The OBDC DRIP is an "opt-out" plan, meaning OBDC will reinvest all cash distributions declared by OBDC's board of directors on behalf of OBDC shareholders who do not elect to receive their distribution in cash. As a result, if OBDC's board of directors authorizes and OBDC declares a cash dividend or other distribution, then OBDC shareholders who have not opted out of the OBDC DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of OBDC's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, rather than receiving the cash dividend or other distribution. If the merger is not consummated dividends will be payable according to your election made under the OBDC II DRIP.

Thank you very much for your support.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Lamm

Chief Financial Officer
