COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, Oaktree enters into contracts that contain certain representations, warranties and indemnifications. The Company’s exposure under these arrangements would involve future claims that have not yet been asserted. Inasmuch as no such claims currently exist or are expected to arise, the Company has not accrued any liability in connection with these indemnifications.

Legal Actions

Oaktree, its affiliates, investment professionals, and portfolio companies are routinely involved in litigation and other legal actions in the ordinary course of their business and investing activities.  In addition, Oaktree is subject to the authority of a number of U.S. and non-U.S. regulators, including the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and those authorities periodically conduct examinations of Oaktree and make other inquiries

that may result in the commencement of regulatory proceedings against Oaktree and its personnel. The Company and Oaktree are currently not subject to any pending actions or regulatory proceedings that either individually or in the aggregate are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Incentive Income

In addition to the incentive income recognized by the Company, certain of its funds have amounts recorded as potentially allocable to the Company as its share of potential future incentive income, based on each fund’s net asset value. Inasmuch as this incentive income is contingent upon future investment activity and other factors, it is not recognized by the Company as revenue until it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur.

Subsequent to the 2024 Restructuring, the Company no longer earns incentive income as a result of the

deconsolidation of Oaktree Capital I. The Company’s proportionate share of incentive income earned by Oaktree Capital I is included as a component of investment income.

As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate of such amounts recorded at the fund level in excess of incentive income recognized by the Company was $1.8 billion, for which related direct incentive income compensation expense was estimated to be $739.1 million.

Commitments to Funds

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had undrawn capital commitments of $112.5 million in its capacity as a limited partner in Opps XI and undrawn commitments of $696.7 million in its capacity as a limited partner in Opps XII (Opps XI and Opps XII as defined in note 15).

As of December 31, 2023, the Company, generally in its capacity as general partner through Oaktree Capital I had undrawn capital commitments of $349.9 million including commitments to both unconsolidated and consolidated funds.

Investment Commitments of the Consolidated Funds

Certain of the consolidated funds are parties to credit arrangements that provide for the issuance of letters of credit and/or revolving loans, which may require the particular fund to extend loans to investee companies. The consolidated funds use the same investment criteria in making these commitments as they do for investments that are included in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The unfunded liability associated with these credit arrangements is equal to the amount by which the contractual loan commitment exceeds the sum of funded debt and cash held in escrow, if any. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the consolidated funds had no potential aggregate commitments.

A consolidated fund may agree to guarantee the repayment obligations of certain investee companies. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no guaranteed amounts under such arrangements.

Certain consolidated funds are investment companies that are required to disclose financial support provided or contractually required to be provided to any of their portfolio companies. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the consolidated funds did not provide any financial support to portfolio companies.

As a result of the 2024 Restructuring, the Company no longer controls Oaktree Capital I. As such, the funds consolidated by Oaktree Capital I are no longer consolidated by the Company.
