RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company considers its executive officers, employees, if any, and unconsolidated Oaktree funds to be affiliates (as defined in the FASB ASC Master Glossary). Amounts due from and to affiliates are set forth below. The fair value of amounts due from and to affiliates is a Level III valuation and was valued based on a discounted cash-flow analysis. The carrying value of amounts due from and to affiliates approximated fair value due to their short-term nature or because their weighted average interest rate approximated the Company’s cost of debt.

Loans To Affiliates

Loans primarily consist of interest-bearing loans made to affiliates.

On May 7, 2021, the Company, through its consolidated subsidiary Oaktree Capital I, entered into two revolving line of credit notes with OCM, one as a borrower and the other as a lender. Both revolving line of credit notes allow for outstanding principal amounts not to exceed $250.0 million and mature on May 7, 2024. On February 17, 2023, the revolving line of credit notes were replaced with an intercompany loan agreement with a maturity of February 17, 2026.

As of March 31, 2024, OCM had borrowed $67.0 million from the Company through Oaktree Capital I, which was included in due from affiliates, and generated $584.0 thousand of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, there were no loans from affiliates and interest expense of $159.0 thousand was incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2023, OCM had borrowed $26.0 million from the Company through Oaktree Capital I, which was included in due from affiliates, and generated no interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company through Oaktree Capital I has borrowed $48.0 million from OCM, which was included in due to affiliates, and incurred $169.0 thousand of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Due From Oaktree Funds

In the normal course of business, the Company advances certain expenses on behalf of Oaktree funds. Amounts advanced on behalf of consolidated funds are eliminated in consolidation. Certain expenses paid by the Company, which typically are employee travel and other costs associated with particular portfolio company holdings, are reimbursed to the Company by the portfolio companies. In addition, the Company recognizes distributions and proceeds from corporate investments in Oaktree funds for which it serves as general partner, and other third-party managed funds and companies as receivables when certain criteria is met.

Revenues Earned From Oaktree Funds

Incentive income earned from unconsolidated Oaktree funds totaled $115.3 million and $59.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Aircraft Services

OCM owns an aircraft for business purposes. Howard Marks, the Company’s Co-Chairman, may use this aircraft for personal travel and will reimburse OCM to the extent his use of the aircraft for personal travel exceeds a certain threshold pursuant to an Oaktree policy. Oaktree also provides certain senior executives a personal travel allowance for private aircraft usage up to a certain threshold pursuant to the same Oaktree policy. Additionally, Oaktree occasionally makes use of an aircraft owned by one of its senior executives for business purposes at a price to Oaktree that is based on market rates.

Special Allocations

Certain executive officers of the Company receive special allocations based on a percentage of profits of the Oaktree Operating Group. These special allocations, which are recorded as compensation expense, are made on a current basis for so long as the executive officers remain senior executives of Oaktree, with limited exceptions.

Administrative Services

The Company is party to the Services Agreement with OCM. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, OCM provides administrative services to the Company necessary for the operations of the Company, which include providing office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities and such other services as OCM, subject to review by the Company’s Board of Directors, shall from time to time deem to be necessary or useful to perform its obligations under the Services Agreement. OCM may, on behalf of the Company, conduct relations and negotiate agreements with custodians, trustees, depositories, attorneys, underwriters, brokers

and dealers, corporate fiduciaries, insurers, banks and such other persons in any such other capacity deemed to be necessary or desirable.

OCM is responsible for the financial and other records that the Company is required to maintain and prepares, prints and disseminates reports to the Company’s unitholders and all other materials filed with the SEC. In addition, OCM assists the Company in overseeing the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns, and generally overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others.

On an annual basis the Company will reimburse OCM $750,000 of the costs incurred for providing these administrative services. This reimbursement is payable quarterly, in equal installments, and relates to the Company’s allocable portion of overhead and other expenses (facilities and personnel) incurred by OCM in performing its obligations under the Services Agreement. This amount includes the Company’s allocable portion of (i) the rent of the Company’s principal executive offices (which are located in a building owned by a Brookfield affiliate) at market rates and (ii) the costs of compensation and related expenses of various personnel at Oaktree that perform duties for the Company. The Services Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 90 days’ written notice to the other.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred administrative services expense of $0.2 million.

Subordinated Credit Facility

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 as detailed in note 10. Oaktree Capital I is jointly and severally liable, along with its co-obligors for outstanding borrowings on the subordinated credit facility. As set forth in note 8, the Company’s financial statements generally will not reflect debt obligations, interest expense or related liabilities associated with its operating subsidiaries until such time as Oaktree Capital I directly borrows from the subordinated credit facility. In March 2022, this credit facility was amended to extend the revolving credit maturity date from May 19, 2023 to September 14, 2026. On October 6, 2023, an amendment was signed to further extend the maturity date to October 6, 2028, and change the interest rate to SOFR plus 1.6% or an alternative base rate plus 0.5%. The amendment also provided that the maturity date will automatically extend annually in one-year increments until the lenders notify the borrowers of their intention to terminate the subordinated credit facility. No amounts were outstanding on the subordinated credit facility as of March 31, 2024.

An amount of $307.0 million in respect of the Contributed Amount was contributed to the Company on June 27, 2023 (the “Purchase Price”) and a true-up contribution of $13.9 million was made on July 31, 2023 (the “True-Up Payment”). Also on June 27, 2023, the Company entered into a contribution agreement (the “NTR Contribution Agreement”) with NTR whereby the Company contributed the Purchase Price to NTR and agreed to make a contribution in an amount equal to the True-Up Payment to NTR, and NTR agreed to use the Contributed Amount in connection with the Acquisition. On June 29, 2023, NTR entered into an agreement of purchase and sale (the “Agreement of Purchase and Sale”) to effect the Acquisition, whereby NTR acquired 100% of the interests in the REIT Entities from BUSI II NTR Sub LLC in exchange for cash. The Acquisition was completed on June 30, 2023.

SPV Credit Facility

In March 2024, BOH transferred a portion of its indirect interest in Opps XI to newly formed special purpose subsidiary (“SPV”). As of March 31, 2024, the carrying value of the indirect interest is $157 million. BOH then pledged its ownership interest in the SPV as collateral for a non-recourse credit facility of an affiliate. While the outstanding borrowings are the obligations of the affiliate, the co-borrowers, including the SPV, have joint and several liability under the credit facility in the event of default and are required to comply with certain covenants. BOH’s potential exposure under this arrangement is limited to its pledged interest in the SPV.
