Description of Non-GAAP Metrics Distributable earnings (“DE”) is a non-GAAP performance measure of profitability for our investment management business. DE reflects our realized earnings, after deducting preferred unit distributions, at the Operating Group level without the effects of the consolidated funds for the purpose of, among other things, assisting in the determination of equity distributions from the Operating Group. However, the declaration, payment and determination of the amount of equity distributions, if any, is at the sole discretion of our board of directors, which may change our distribution policy at any time. DE revenues include the portion of the earnings from management fees and performance fees attributable to our 20% ownership interest in DoubleLine, which are reflected as investment income in our GAAP statements of operations. DE excludes (a) unrealized incentive income and the associated incentive income compensation expense, (b) unrealized gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions and hedging activities, and (c) excludes investment income or loss, which is largely non-cash in nature, and includes the portion of income or loss on distributions received from funds and companies. DE also excludes (a) non-cash equity-based compensation expense, (b) acquisition-related items, including amortization of intangibles, changes in the contingent consideration liability and costs related to the Brookfield transaction, (c) income taxes and other income or expense applicable to OCG or its Intermediate Holding Companies, and (d) non-controlling interests. In addition, any make-whole premium charges related to the repayment of debt are, for DE purposes, amortized through the original maturity date of the repaid debt. Fee-related earnings (“FRE”) is a non-GAAP performance measure that we use to monitor the baseline earnings of our business. FRE is a component of DE and is comprised of management fees (“fee revenues”) less operating expenses other than incentive income compensation expense and non-cash equity-based compensation expense. FRE is considered baseline because it excludes all non-management fee revenue sources and applies all cash compensation and benefits other than incentive income compensation expense, as well as all general and administrative expenses, to management fees, even though those expenses also support the generation of incentive and realized investment income proceeds. FRE is presented before income taxes. 30Description of Non-GAAP Metrics Distributable earnings (“DE”) is a non-GAAP performance measure of profitability for our investment management business.

In general, the income or loss component of a distribution from a fund is calculated by multiplying the amount of the distribution by the ratio of our investment’s undistributed income or loss to our remaining investment balance. In addition, if the distribution is made during the investment period, it is generally not reflected in distributable earnings until after the investment period ends. 3 This adjustment adds back the effect of equity-based compensation expense, which is excluded from distributable earnings because it is a non-cash charge that does not affect our financial position. 4 This adjustment removes the effect of unrealized gains and losses related to foreign-currency hedging activities. 5 This adjustment adds back the effect of acquisition-related items associated with the amortization of intangibles, changes in the contingent consideration liability and costs related to the Brookfield transaction, which are excluded from distributable earnings. 6 For distributable earnings, the make-whole premium charge that was included in net income attributable to OCG Class A unitholders in the fourth quarter of 2017 in connection with the early repayment of our 2019 Notes is amortized through the original maturity date of December 2019. 7 Because distributable earnings is calculated at the Operating Group level, this adjustment adds back the effect of items applicable to OCG, its Intermediate Holding Companies or non-controlling interests. 8 Per Class A unit amounts are calculated to evaluate the portion of distributable earnings attributable to Class A unitholders. Reconciliations of distributable earnings to distributable earnings per Class A unit are presented below. 9 The adjustment (a) adds back amounts earned from the consolidated funds, (b) reclassifies DoubleLine investment income to management fees and incentive income, (c) for management fees, reclassifies net gains or losses related to foreign-currency hedging activities from general and administrative expense and expense reimbursements grossed-up for GAAP reporting, but netted with expenses for distributable earnings, and (d) adds back the impact from unrealized incentive income. 32Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Metrics Year Ended Quarter Ended ($ in thousands) 2015 2016 2017 2018 3/31/2019 Reconciliation of net income attributable to Oaktree Capital Group, LLC Class A unitholders to distributable earnings: Net income attributable to OCG Class A unitholders $71,349 $194,705 $231,494 $211,141 $47,254 (1) Incentive income (19,002) 1,407 (13,653) (180,595) 286,676 (1) Incentive income compensation 19,009 (1,407) 13,653 100,558 (155,401) Investment income 6,748 (177,060) (208,345) (30,880) (67,899) (2) Realized investment income proceeds 97,668 66,390 128,468 150,486 27,385 (3) Equity-based compensation 54,381 63,724 59,337 62,989 14,329 (4) Foreign-currency hedging 2,619 1,496 1,453 (2,506) (1,373) (5) Acquisition-related items 5,251 (924) 1,838 5,974 16,821 (6) Other (income) expense, net 0 0 21,962 (10,980) (2,745) Income taxes 14,175 37,884 207,810 17,019 3,969 (7) Non-Operating Group (income) expenses 2,097 1,176 (144,143) 632 (52) (7) Non-controlling interests 192,968 341,590 419,931 277,967 64,928 (8) Distributable earnings $447,263 $528,981 $719,805 $601,805 $233,892 Reconciliation of Consolidated Management fees to Non-GAAP Management fees: Management fees - Consolidated $195,308 $774,587 $726,414 $712,020 $169,934 (9) Adjustments 609,182 72,491 88,161 78,335 20,167 Management fees - Non-GAAP $804,490 $847,078 $814,575 $790,355 $190,101 1 This adjustment relates to unrealized incentive income which is excluded from distributable earnings revenues and incentive income compensation expense. 2 This adjustment reflects the portion of distributions received from funds characterized as realized investment income or loss. In general, the income or loss component of a distribution from a fund is calculated by multiplying the amount of the distribution by the ratio of our investment’s undistributed income or loss to our remaining investment balance. In addition, if the distribution is made during the investment period, it is generally not reflected in distributable earnings until after the investment period ends. 3 This adjustment adds back the effect of equity-based compensation expense, which is excluded from distributable earnings because it is a non-cash charge that does not affect our financial position. 4 This adjustment removes the effect of unrealized gains and losses related to foreign-currency hedging activities. 5 This adjustment adds back the effect of acquisition-related items associated with the amortization of intangibles, changes in the contingent consideration liability and costs related to the Brookfield transaction, which are excluded from distributable earnings. 6 For distributable earnings, the make-whole premium charge that was included in net income attributable to OCG Class A unitholders in the fourth quarter of 2017 in connection with the early repayment of our 2019 Notes is amortized through the original maturity date of December 2019. 7 Because distributable earnings is calculated at the Operating Group level, this adjustment adds back the effect of items applicable to OCG, its Intermediate Holding Companies or non-controlling interests. 8 Per Class A unit amounts are calculated to evaluate the portion of distributable earnings attributable to Class A unitholders. Reconciliations of distributable earnings to distributable earnings per Class A unit are presented below. 9 The adjustment (a) adds back amounts earned from the consolidated funds, (b) reclassifies DoubleLine investment income to management fees and incentive income, (c) for management fees, reclassifies net gains or losses related to foreign-currency hedging activities from general and administrative expense and expense reimbursements grossed-up for GAAP reporting, but netted with expenses for distributable earnings, and (d) adds back the impact from unrealized incentive income. 32
