Form of Managing Director Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 MANAGING DIRECTOR AGREEMENT 
 This MANAGING DIRECTOR AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is
made, as of July     , 2007, by and between OZ Management LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“OZM”), and
                     (the “Managing Director”). This Agreement shall become effective and operative upon the closing date
(the “Effective Date”) of the initial public offering of Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the indirect parent company of OZM (the “Company”), made pursuant to the
registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-144256) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2007 (the “IPO”). Prior to the Effective Date, the Principal Agreement between the
Managing Director and OZM, dated as of [                    ] as amended and in effect from time to time (the “Principal
Agreement”), shall continue to govern the relationship between the parties. On the Effective Date, the Principal Agreement shall automatically terminate with immediate effect and without the need for notice by either party and be of no
further force or effect and, for the avoidance of doubt, but not by way of limitation, no further payment or benefit whatsoever shall be due or payable to the Managing Director under the terms of the Principal Agreement, and this Agreement shall
supersede and replace the Principal Agreement and any oral or other written agreements between the parties governing the subject matter of this Agreement (other than any confidentiality agreement executed by the Managing Director, which shall
continue in full force and effect); notwithstanding the foregoing, solely with respect to any portion of the Vesting Amount of the Annual Compensation (as those terms are defined in the Principal Agreement) awarded under the Principal
Agreement that remains unpaid as of the Effective Date, the Principal Agreement shall continue to govern, and the Managing Director’s entitlement to and payment of such Vesting Amount shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the
Principal Agreement. If the IPO has not been consummated on or prior to December 31, 2007, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and shall not become operative at any time. 
 1. Title; Reporting; Key Responsibilities; At-Will Employment. 
 (a) The Managing Director will be employed as a managing director of OZM. The Managing Director shall provide services to OZM for its benefit, or for the benefit of, OZ Advisors LP, a Delaware limited partnership and
affiliate of OZM (“OZA”), and OZ Advisors II LP, a Delaware limited partnership and affiliate of OZM (“OZA2” and, together with OZM and OZA, the “Och-Ziff Operating Group”), as directed by OZM. For
so long as he or she is a managing director, the business of the Och-Ziff Operating Group will be the Managing Director’s sole occupation, and the Managing Director agrees to devote substantially all of his or her business time, skill, energies
and attention to the Och-Ziff Operating Group in a diligent manner. 
 (b) The Managing Director will report to such individual or
individuals as directed by OZM from time to time. 
 (c) Each Managing Director’s key responsibilities will be determined by OZM from
time to time. 

 (d) The Managing Director’s employment with OZM is an at-will relationship, meaning that either the
Managing Director or OZM may terminate this employment relationship at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without “Cause” (as defined in Section 2(f) below), and with or without advanced notice. 
 2. Salary; Bonus Compensation. 
 (a)
During the Managing Director’s employment with OZM, the Managing Director shall receive a base salary from OZM at an annualized rate of $             per year, payable on a
semi-monthly basis in accordance with OZM’s standard payroll policies (the “Base Salary”). 
 (b) During the Managing
Director’s employment with OZM, the Managing Director shall be entitled to receive bonus compensation (the “Bonus Compensation”) with respect to each fiscal year of such employment that is equal to the sum of the Managing
Director’s “Incentive Percentage” (as defined in Section 2(b)(i) below) plus the Managing Director’s “Management Percentage” (as defined in Section 2(b)(ii) below) minus the Base Salary paid to the Managing
Director in the applicable year, subject to and in accordance with the conditions provided in Sections 2(c) and (d) below; provided, however, that the Managing Director must be employed by OZM on the last day of the fiscal year to
which the Bonus Compensation relates in order to be eligible for such Bonus Compensation. If the Managing Director is not employed by OZM on the last day of the fiscal year, the Managing Director shall have no right to any such Bonus Compensation
for the applicable fiscal year. 
 (i) The term “Incentive Percentage” means an amount equal to
            % of the incentive income received by the Och-Ziff Operating Group during the applicable fiscal year, determined in accordance with Sections 2(b)(iii) and (iv).

 (ii) The term “Management Percentage” means an amount equal to
            % of the net profits from management fees received by the Och-Ziff Operating Group during the applicable fiscal year, determined in accordance with Sections 2(b)(iii) and
(iv). 
 (iii) The Incentive Percentage and Management Percentage are applied, in each case, after deducting (a) 12.5% of the total
incentive income and net profits from management fees received by the Och-Ziff Operating Group and (b) all expenses incurred by the Och-Ziff Operating Group. The determination of the total incentive income and net profits from management fees,
which are received by, and the expenses incurred by, the Och-Ziff Operating Group, shall be at the sole discretion of OZM. 
 (iv) OZM may
adjust either or both of the Incentive Percentage and/or the Management Percentage annually, in the sole discretion of the Chairman of the Partner Management Committee of OZM (or, if there shall be no Chairman, the remaining members of such
committee) (as applicable, the “Chairman”), upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Managing Director. 
 (c) Subject
to Section 2(b) above, the Managing Director shall be entitled to receive 70% of the Bonus Compensation in the form of a cash bonus, payable on or before March 15 of the year immediately following the fiscal year to which the Bonus
Compensation relates. 
  

 2 

 (d) Subject to Section 2(b) above, 30% of the Bonus Compensation shall vest (the “MD Vesting
Amount”) and be payable in cash to the Managing Director as follows: (i) 50% on the first anniversary of the last day of the fiscal year to which the Bonus Compensation relates, and (ii) 50% on the second anniversary of the last day
of the fiscal year to which the Bonus Compensation relates, in each case, provided that the Managing Director is employed by OZM on such anniversary date. The MD Vesting Amount payable on any such date shall be increased or decreased by an amount
equal to the return of an index that approximates the gross return of OZ Master Fund, Ltd., as calculated by OZM in its sole discretion, until the time of vesting and payment. The MD Vesting Amount under this Section 2(d) shall not be deemed
earned until vested in accordance with the foregoing. If the Managing Director is not employed by OZM on the applicable anniversary date, the Managing Director shall have no right to any unvested portion of the MD Vesting Amount provided under this
Section 2(d); provided, however, if the Managing Director’s employment has been terminated by OZM without Cause or on account of the Managing Director’s death or the Managing Director becoming Disabled prior to any such
anniversary date, such unvested portion of the MD Vesting Amount shall be payable on the date that such MD Vesting Amount would vest in the absence of such termination of employment. 
 (e) Nothing herein shall mean or be construed to mean that (i) the Managing Director is a partner of any of the Och-Ziff Operating Group entities or
has any other right, title, interest or claim with respect to the equity of any of the Och-Ziff Operating Group entities, the Company or their affiliates (collectively, the “Och-Ziff Entities”) or (ii) the Managing Director or
any person claiming under or through the Managing Director has any right, title, interest or claim to the proceeds of (1) any sale of all or any portion of any of the Och-Ziff Entities (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or
otherwise), (2) any issuance of equity in any of the Och-Ziff Entities, (3) any sale of all or part of the then existing equity of any of the Och-Ziff Entities, or (4) any other monetization or capitalization of the Och-Ziff Entities.

 (f) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean that the Managing Director (i) has committed an act of fraud,
dishonesty, misrepresentation or breach of trust; (ii) has been convicted of a felony or any offense involving moral turpitude; (iii) has been found by any regulatory body or self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction over any of the
Och-Ziff Entities to have, or has entered into a consent decree determining that the Managing Director, violated any applicable regulatory requirement or a rule of a self-regulatory organization; (iv) has, in the capacity as a Managing
Director, committed an act constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct; (v) has violated in any material respect any agreement with respect to any of the Och-Ziff Entities; (vi) has become subject to any proceeding seeking to
adjudicate the Managing Director as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of the debts of the Managing Director under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for the Managing Director or for any substantial part of the property of the Managing Director, or

management business is intensely competitive, (ii) the Managing Director has developed, and will continue to develop and have access to and knowledge of, confidential information (including, but not limited to, material non-public information

would do damage to the Och-Ziff Entities, (iv) the Managing Director has developed goodwill with the Och-Ziff Entities’ clients and counterparties at the substantial expense of the Och-Ziff Entities, (v) the Managing Director may
continue to develop client and counterparty goodwill, through investment by and resources of the Och-Ziff Entities, while working for and at the direction of OZM, (vi) the Managing Director engaging in any of the activities prohibited by this

a passive investor holding minimal percentages of the stock of public companies). For purposes of this Agreement, “Competing Business” means any entity, or distinct portion thereof, that engages in the alternative asset management
business. 
  

 4 

 (c) During the Managing Director’s employment with OZM and for the 12-month period immediately
following the termination of the Managing Director’s employment for any reason, the Managing Director will not, directly or indirectly, in any manner solicit any of the Och-Ziff Entities’ partners, directors, officers or employees to

market intermediaries, consultants or other counterparties to terminate (or diminish in any material respect) his, her or its relationship with the Och-Ziff Entities for the purpose of associating with any Competing Business, or otherwise encourage
such investors, financing sources, capital market intermediaries, consultants or other counterparties to terminate (or diminish in any respect) his, her or its relationship with the Och-Ziff Entities for any other reason.

partners, members, officers, directors, or employees; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 3 shall preclude the Managing Director from providing truthful testimony in response to a valid subpoena, court order,
regulatory request, or as may be otherwise required by law, or from participating or cooperating in any action, investigation or proceeding with, or providing truthful information to, any governmental agency, legislative body, self-regulatory

 4. Injunctive Relief; Liquidated Damages. 
 (a) The Managing Director acknowledges and agrees that an attempted or threatened breach by him or her of Section 3 of this Agreement would cause
irreparable injury to OZM and the other Och-Ziff Entities not compensable in money damages and OZM shall be entitled, in addition to the remedies set forth in Section 4(b), to obtain a temporary, preliminary and permanent injunction prohibiting
any breaches of Section 3 of this Agreement without being required to prove damages or furnish any bond or other security. 
 (b)
Without limiting the right of OZM to obtain injunctive relief for any attempted or threatened breach of Section 3 of this Agreement: (i) in the event the Managing Director actually breaches Section 3(b) of this Agreement, then the
Managing Director shall owe, as liquidated damages, to OZM, an amount equal to the cash and any equity-based compensation provided to the Managing Director in the 12-month period prior to the date of the Managing Director’s termination of
employment with OZM, and (ii) in the event the Managing Director actually breaches Section 3(c), (d) or (e) of this Agreement, then OZM shall be entitled to any other available remedies including, but not limited, to an award of
money. The Managing Director further agrees that it would be impossible to compute the actual damages resulting from a breach of Section 3(b), and that the liquidated damages amount set forth in this Agreement is reasonable in light of the
anticipated damage OZM and the other Och-Ziff Entities would suffer from a breach of Section 3(b). 
 5. Acknowledgment. The
Managing Director acknowledges that he or she has been given the opportunity to ask questions of the Och-Ziff Entities and has consulted with counsel concerning this Agreement to the extent the Managing Director deems necessary in order to be fully
informed with respect thereto. 
 6. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) All decisions relating to the compensation of the Managing Director, including, without limitation, the amount of his or her Incentive Percentage and Management Percentage and the determination of whether the
Managing Director shall receive payments related to the revenues generated by a particular line of business of the Och-Ziff Operating Group, shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Chairman, and any such determination shall be final. The
Chairman will not reduce the Management Percentage or the Incentive Percentage, as outlined in Section 2 of this Agreement, during the first fiscal year following the Effective Date. 
 (b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York governing contracts made and to be performed
in New York. 
 (c) This Agreement cannot be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterpart copies, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute the same instrument. 
  

 6 

 (d) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. 
 (e) If any provision of this
Agreement shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable as written, it shall be construed, to the greatest extent possible, in a manner which shall render it valid and enforceable, and any limitations on the scope or duration of any such provision
necessary to make it valid and enforceable shall be deemed to be part thereof, and no invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall affect any other portion of this Agreement unless the provision deemed to be so invalid or unenforceable is a
material element of this Agreement, taken as a whole. 
 (f) The failure by any party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this
Agreement, or to require at any time performance by any party hereto of any provision hereof, shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof, or the right of any
party hereto thereafter to enforce each and every such provision in accordance with its terms. 
 (g) Immediately upon the Managing
Director’s termination or resignation for any reason, OZM and the other Och-Ziff Entities will have no future obligation (financial or other) to the Managing Director, except as explicitly stipulated in Section 2 of this Agreement.

 (h) The Managing Director (or the Managing Director’s beneficiary) shall be solely a general creditor of OZM with respect to any
rights derived by the Managing Director from the existence of this Agreement. 
 (i) If the Managing Director ceases to perform services for
or at the direction of OZM for any reason, the Managing Director will not be required to repay any previously paid salary. 
 (j) If in any
year subsequent to the first fiscal year that this Agreement is in effect, (i) the Managing Director is offered a Management Percentage or Incentive Percentage (“Percentages”) less than that outlined in Section 2 of this
Agreement or (ii) a revenue stream for an existing business that was previously included in the Managing Director’s compensatory calculation is removed from such calculation, then the Managing Director will have the right to resign within
30 calendar days (“Notification Period”) after the date of notification of the reduction of the Percentages or the removal of the revenue stream, without being subject to Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement (other than
Section 3(e)). The Managing Director must notify OZM in writing if the Managing Director desires to resign. Upon expiration of the Notification Period, the Managing Director will be required to sign a revised agreement, outlining the revised
Percentages and/or revised revenue streams. 
 7. Special Awards. The Managing Director may be awarded compensation in excess of
amounts resulting from application of the provisions in Section 2 of this Agreement, at the sole discretion of the Chairman.

 8. No Further Compensation. The Managing Director will not be entitled to receive any compensation
other than what is specifically outlined in this Agreement.
