In connection with the execution of the New Cap I LPA, Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC (the “Company”) confirmed its approval of and consent to the replacement of the General Partner of Oaktree Capital I in accordance with Section 8.07(a) of the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Oaktree Capital I.
