Oaktree Capital I Guaranty Agreements
As of June 30, 2023, OCM, Oaktree Capital I, Oaktree Capital II, Oaktree AIF and OCM Cayman are co-obligors and jointly and severally liable for all debt obligations listed below, while the debt obligations are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements based upon the entity that actually made the borrowing and received the related proceeds. Prior to 2022, OCM had historically been the only direct borrower or issuer under credit agreements and private placement notes with third parties and made all payments of principal and interest. The Company’s financial statements after the 2019 Restructuring generally do not reflect debt obligations, interest expense or related liabilities associated with OCM, Oaktree Capital II and Oaktree AIF. Subsequent to the 2022 Restructuring, the Company’s financial statements no longer reflect debt obligations, interest expense or related liabilities associated with OCM, OCM Cayman, Oaktree Capital II and Oaktree AIF.

On April 7, 2023, OCM, Oaktree Capital I, Oaktree Capital II, Oaktree AIF and OCM Cayman (collectively, the “Obligors”) entered into amendments to each of the note and guaranty agreements listed below for each series of outstanding senior notes issued by OCM and Oaktree Capital I. Pursuant to these amendments, OCM Cayman became a guarantor of each such series of senior notes. These amendments also amended certain provisions in these note and guaranty agreements, including financial definitions, in order to facilitate the joinder of OCM Cayman as an obligor. Additionally, the amendments for the note purchase agreements executed in 2014 and 2020 amended the assets under management covenants to clarify the treatment of entities that the Obligors account for using equity method accounting. On the same date that the note and guaranty amendments took effect, OCM Cayman became a co-Borrower under the $650 million revolving credit facility with OCM, Oaktree Capital I, Oaktree Capital II and Oaktree AIF pursuant to a joinder agreement executed by OCM Cayman as part of the Seventh Amendment to the credit facility.

On May 20, 2020, OCM entered into a note and guaranty agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which OCM agreed to issue and sell to such investors $250 million of senior unsecured notes that bear a blended 3.68% fixed rate of interest and a weighted average maturity of 2031. These notes are guaranteed by Oaktree Capital I, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, along with Oaktree Capital II, Oaktree AIF and OCM Cayman, as co-obligors. The offering closed on July 22, 2020 and OCM received proceeds of $250 million on the closing date. As OCM is the issuer of such senior notes, the outstanding principal and interest payments guaranteed by Oaktree Capital I will not be included in the Company’s financial statements unless an event of default occurs.
Oaktree Capital I, along with certain other Oaktree Operating Group members as co-borrowers, are parties to a credit agreement with a subsidiary of Brookfield that provides for a subordinated credit facility. The subordinated credit facility has a revolving loan commitment of $250 million and borrowings generally bear interest at a spread to either LIBOR or an alternative base rate. Borrowings on the subordinated credit facility are subordinate to the outstanding debt obligations and borrowings on the primary credit facility of Oaktree Capital I and its co-borrowers. Oaktree Capital I is jointly and severally liable, along with its co-obligors for outstanding borrowings on the subordinated credit facility. The Company’s financial statements generally will not reflect debt obligations, interest expense or related liabilities associated with the subordinated credit facility until such time as Oaktree Capital I directly borrows from it. In March 2022, this credit facility was amended to extend the revolving credit maturity date from May 19, 2023 to September 14, 2026. No amounts were outstanding on the subordinated credit facility as of June 30, 2023.

On November 4, 2021, OCM entered into a note and guaranty agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which OCM agreed to issue and sell to such investors $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.06% Senior Notes due January 12, 2037. These notes are guaranteed by Oaktree Capital I, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, along with Oaktree Capital II, Oaktree AIF and OCM Cayman, as co-obligors. The offering closed on January 12, 2022 and OCM received proceeds of $200 million on the closing date. As OCM is the issuer of such notes, the outstanding principal and interest payments guaranteed by Oaktree Capital I will not be included in the Company’s financial statements unless an event of default occurs.

Oaktree’s credit facility was amended on September 14, 2021 to among other things, (i) extend the maturity date from December 13, 2024 to September 14, 2026, (ii) modify the assets under management covenant threshold from $65 billion of assets under management to $57.5 billion of management-fee generating assets under management and (iii) increase the maximum leverage ratio to 4.00 to 1.00. Oaktree’s credit facility was further amended on December 15, 2022 to among other things, extend the maturity date from September 14, 2026 to December 15, 2027 with the potential to extend the maturity for up to two additional years, and implemented language consistent with U.S. syndicated loan market practice to use an adjusted forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), as a replacement for the London Interbank Offered Rate. Based on the current credit ratings of OCM, the interest rate on borrowings is the term SOFR reference rate plus 1.10% per annum and the commitment fee on the unused portions of the revolving credit facility is 0.10% per annum. The term SOFR reference rate is determined by the tenor of the borrowings and set by the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (CBA).

The credit agreement contains customary financial covenants and restrictions, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum required level of assets under management (as defined in the credit agreement, as amended above). As of June 30, 2023, no amounts were outstanding under the revolving credit facility.
OCM and the Company were in compliance with all financial maintenance covenants associated with its senior notes and bank credit facility as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, Oaktree Capital I is jointly and severally liable, along with its co-obligors, for the debt obligations listed below with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1.1 billion. The Company’s maximum exposure to these debt
obligations is set forth below:
