Introductory Note

On May 19, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Altimar Acquisition Corporation, a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Altimar”), domesticated as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and changed its names to Blue Owl Capital Inc. (“Blue Owl”). Immediately following the Domestication, Blue Owl consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020, as amended by the Amendment to Business Combination Agreement, dated as of January 4, 2021, the Second Amendment to Business Combination Agreement, dated as of March 25, 2021, and the Third Amendment to Business Combination Agreement, dated as of April 11, 2021 (as may be amended from time to time, the “BCA” or the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Altimar, Owl Rock Capital Group LLC (“Owl Rock Group”), Owl Rock Capital Feeder LLC (“Owl Rock Feeder”), Owl Rock Capital Partners LP (“Owl Rock Capital Partners”) and Neuberger Berman Group LLC (“Neuberger”).

Unless the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Blue Owl” refer to Blue Owl Capital Inc. All references herein to the “Board” refer to the board of directors of Altimar or Blue Owl, as applicable.

Upon the completion of the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Transactions,” and such completion, the “Closing”), the combined company was organized in an “Up-C” structure. Prior to the Business Combination, Altimar formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Blue Owl Capital GP LLC (“Blue Owl GP”), which serves as the sole general partner of two operating partnerships, Blue Owl Capital Holdings LP (“Blue Owl Holdings”) and Blue Owl Capital Carry LP (“Blue Owl Carry” and, together with Blue Owl Holdings, the “Blue Owl Operating Partnerships” and, together with their consolidated subsidiaries, the “Blue Owl Operating Group”). The Blue Owl Operating Group directly or indirectly holds substantially all of the consolidated assets and business of Blue Owl.

The aggregate value of the consideration paid to the existing equityholders of Owl Rock Group (the “Owl Rock Equityholders”) and Dyal (the “Dyal Equityholders”) in the Business Combination was approximately $12.15 billion, of which:

(a)

approximately $5,467,500,000 was paid to the existing Owl Rock Equityholders (inclusive of the Special Incentive Award described in the Notes to Owl Rock’s Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements) consisting of: certain cash consideration in the approximate amount of $350,000,000 (subject to adjustment as described below, the “Owl Rock Cash Consideration”), which was financed with the funds available in the trust account established in connection with Altimar’s initial public offering (the “Trust Account”) and a portion of the proceeds of the private placement of 150,000,000 shares of Class A common stock immediately prior to Closing (the “Private Placement”) or “PIPE Investment” with certain institutional and other accredited investors (the “PIPE Investors”) and the remainder in shares of Class A common stock at a price of $10.00 per share (or, in lieu of such shares of Class A Common Stock for Owl Rock Equityholders making a valid and timely election, in Blue Owl Operating Group Units (as defined under the heading “Exchange Agreement”) and vote-only shares of Blue Owl); and

(b)

approximately $6,682,500,000 was paid to the Dyal Equityholders consisting of: certain cash consideration in the approximate amount of $1,100,000,000 (subject to adjustment as described below, the “Dyal Cash Consideration”), which was financed with the funds available in the Trust Account and a portion of the proceeds of the Private Placement, and the remainder in Blue Owl Operating Group Units and vote-only shares of Blue Owl.

Immediately after giving effect to the Business Combination (including as a result of Altimar shareholder redemptions validly submitted prior to the Shareholder Meeting), there were 320,005,528 issued and outstanding shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock. One business day following the Closing, Altimar’s Class A ordinary shares and warrants ceased trading, and Blue Owl’s Class A common stock and warrants began trading on The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Altimar’s public units automatically separated into their component securities upon consummation of the Business Combination and, as a result, no longer trade as a separate security and were delisted from NYSE. As of the Closing Date, our directors and executive officers and affiliated entities beneficially owned approximately 0% of the outstanding shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock, and the former securityholders of Altimar beneficially owned approximately 4.5% of the outstanding shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock.

Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement

In connection with the Closing, Blue Owl entered into an Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), Computershare Trust Company, N.A. and Computershare Inc. (together, “Computershare”), pursuant to which, among other things, Continental assigned all of its rights, interest and obligations thereunder to Computershare, as warrant agent. In connection with the Closing, all of the outstanding warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares of Altimar became exercisable for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock of Blue Owl, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”), on the terms and conditions of such warrants set forth in the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement do not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In addition, in connection with the Closing, Blue Owl, Blue Owl GP and the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement with the Dyal Equityholders, the Owl Rock Equityholders and certain other parties thereto. Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, Blue Owl GP is required to pay 85% of certain tax benefits, if any, that it realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of any increases in tax basis of the assets of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships related to the payment of the cash or stock consideration pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and any exchange of Blue Owl Operating Group Units for shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock or cash in the future, certain other tax attributes of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, the Blue Owl GP, or the corporations acquired from certain Owl Rock Equityholders in the transaction, and certain tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement. The payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement are not conditioned upon the recipients’ continued ownership of Blue Owl or the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships.

The term of the Tax Receivable Agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless (i) Blue Owl GP exercises its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement for an amount representing the present value of the agreed payments remaining to be made under the agreement, (ii) there is a change of control or (iii) Blue Owl GP breaches any of the material obligations of the Tax Receivable Agreement, in which case all obligations will generally be accelerated and due as if Blue Owl GP had exercised its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement.

The Tax Receivable Agreement provides that upon a change of control, Blue Owl GP’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be accelerated based on certain assumptions, including that Blue Owl GP will have a sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the increased tax deductions and tax basis and other benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Tax Receivable Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Tax Receivable Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Investor Rights Agreement

At the Closing, Blue Owl, Altimar Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), certain equityholders of Altimar, certain of the Owl Rock Equityholders and Dyal Equityholders and certain other parties thereto entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). The Investor Rights Agreement provides, among other things, that (i) Neuberger, the Dyal Principals (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) and the ORC Principals (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) have the right to nominate one, two and three director(s), respectively, to the initial

board of directors of Blue Owl, which shall initially consist of nine members, (ii) for the establishment of an “Executive Committee” consisting initially of the ORC Principals and Dyal Principals that will be delegated day-to-day management of Blue Owl and its subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations, (iii) certain material actions of Blue Owl and/or its subsidiaries require approval of its Board, the Executive Committee and/or, until certain ownership thresholds are no longer maintained or, in some cases, an applicable time period has not expired, Neuberger, (iv) Neuberger with certain preemptive rights with respect to future equity offerings by Blue Owl, Blue Owl Holdings, Blue Owl Carry and their subsidiaries and (v) contractual lock-ups on the sale of Blue Owl common stock and Blue Owl Operating Group Units by the parties to the Investor Rights Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Investor Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Investor Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Blue Owl GP LLCA

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Blue Owl, in its capacity as the sole and managing member of Blue Owl GP, entered into the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Blue Owl GP (the “Blue Owl GP LLCA”), which, among other things, provides that Blue Owl GP will act as general partner of Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry. Concurrently with the execution of the Blue Owl GP LLCA, Blue Owl, as managing member of Blue Owl GP, organized an exchange committee of Blue Owl GP, which is vested with the power and authority to determine whether to make certain elections on behalf of the Blue Owl Operating Group with respect to the exchanges contemplated by the Exchange Agreement (as defined below).

The foregoing description of the Blue Owl GP LLCA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Blue Owl GP LLCA, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry each entered into their respective Limited Partnership Agreements (collectively, the “Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements”), which, among other things, permit the issuance and ownership of units of Blue Owl Holdings (“Blue Owl Holdings Units”) and units of Blue Owl Carry (“Blue Owl Carry Units”), admit Blue Owl GP as the general partner of Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry, and otherwise amend and restate the rights and preferences of the Blue Owl Holdings Units and the Blue Owl Carry Units set forth therein.

Subject to certain limitations, Blue Owl GP, as the general partner of each of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships, will have the sole authority to manage the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships in accordance with the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements and applicable law. Pursuant to the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements, except with respect to “tax distributions” described below, Blue Owl GP has the right to determine when distributions will be made to the partners of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships (including to Blue Owl GP, with respect to its economic general partner interest in Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry) and the amount of any such distributions, subject to certain limitations provided therein. The Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements provide for mandatory “tax distributions” to the partners of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships if the taxable income of Blue Owl Holdings or Blue Owl Carry, as applicable, gives rise to taxable income for its partners, and previous distributions to the partners with respect to the applicable taxable period are less in the aggregate than the amount of such partners’ income tax liability with respect to such taxable income.

The foregoing description of the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Blue Owl Limited Partnership Agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 and Exhibit 10.5, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

2021 Omnibus Plan

At the special meeting of the Altimar shareholders held on May 18, 2021 (the “Special Meeting”), the Altimar shareholders considered and approved the Blue Owl Capital Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Omnibus Plan”). The 2021 Omnibus Plan was previously approved, subject to shareholder approval, by the board of Altimar on May 17, 2021. On the Closing Date, our Board ratified the approval of the 2021 Omnibus Plan. The 2021 Omnibus Plan became effective immediately upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

The 2021 Omnibus Plan provides that the total number of shares of Class A common stock and Blue Owl Operating Group Units, collectively, that may be issued under the 2021 Omnibus Plan is 101,230,522 (the “Share Limit”), subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Omnibus Plan. Of this amount, the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock for which incentive stock options may be granted is equal to the Share Limit; and the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock and Blue Owl Operating Group Units subject to awards granted during a single fiscal year to a non-employee director (or with respect to each single year in the event awards are granted for more than one year), taken together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee director during the fiscal year, will not exceed $400,000 in total value with respect to each fiscal year. Blue Owl Operating Group Units granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan shall reduce the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes, or with respect to which awards may be granted, under the 2021 Omnibus Plan on a one-for-one basis. Any award settled in cash will not be counted against the Share Limit. To the extent that an award expires or is canceled, forfeited, terminated, surrendered or exchanged, the unissued shares or units will again be available for grant under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. Additionally, shares of Class A common stock delivered or withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations or that are tendered in payment of any stock option, including for the exercise price, will again be available for grant under the 2021 Omnibus Plan; provided, that, such shares may not be issued pursuant to any incentive stock options. No award may be granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan after the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Omnibus Plan, but awards granted before then may extend beyond that date.

The foregoing description of the 2021 Omnibus Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2021 Omnibus Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exchange Agreement

At the Closing, Blue Owl GP, Blue Owl Holdings, Blue Owl Carry, Blue Owl and the holders of Blue Owl Operating Group Units entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). The Exchange Agreement provides, among other things, that such holders may, subject to any applicable transfer restrictions, exchange an equal number of units of each of Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry (together, the “Blue Owl Operating Group Units”) and cancel an equal number of shares of Class C common stock or Class D common stock of Blue Owl, as applicable, for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock of Blue Owl, as applicable, or cash. Under certain circumstances, an exchange committee to be established by Blue Owl GP may elect on behalf of Blue Owl Holdings and Blue Owl Carry to pay holders of Blue Owl Operating Group Units a cash payment in lieu of delivery of Class A common stock or Class B common stock described in the foregoing sentence, with such cash payment equal to the five-day volume weighted average price of shares of Class A common stock immediately prior to the applicable exchange date. A holder must exchange at least 10,000 Blue Owl Operating Group Units in each exchange, unless such holder owns a lesser amount of such units and is exchanging all of the Blue Owl Operating Group Units held by them at such time.

The Exchange Agreement contains restrictions on the timing and amount of exchanges of the Blue Owl Operating Group Units that are intended to prevent either of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships from being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes; such restrictions are modeled on certain safe harbors provided for under applicable U.S. federal income tax law. Blue Owl GP may also impose additional restrictions on exchanges that Blue Owl GP determines to be necessary or advisable so that neither of the Blue Owl Operating Partnerships is treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Exchange Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Indemnification Agreements

On the Closing Date, Blue Owl entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provides for indemnification and advancements by Blue Owl of certain expenses and costs relating to claims, suits or proceedings arising from his or her service to Blue Owl or, at our request, service to other entities, as officers or directors to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

The foregoing description of the indemnification agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the indemnification agreements, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.8 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Transition Services Agreement

On the Closing Date, Blue Owl entered into a Transition Services Agreement with Neuberger (the “Transition Services Agreement”), pursuant to which Neuberger has agreed to provide certain transition services, including, among other things, the sublease of Dyal office space at 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York. Blue Owl will reimburse Neuberger for certain third party expenses incurred by Neuberger in connection with providing the transition services.

The foregoing description of the Transition Services Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Transition Services Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Employment Agreements

Simultaneously with execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Blue Owl entered into an employment and restrictive covenant agreement with Messrs.

The term of each Employment Agreement is perpetual until terminated in accordance with its terms. Each Key Individual has the right to terminate his employment

voluntarily at any time, subject to minimum notice requirements, but Blue Owl may only terminate such Key Individual’s employment for cause (i.e., as required by a final, non-appealable court order or the conviction of (or plea of no contest to) any felony) or by reason of the Key Individual’s death or disability.

Each Key Individual is entitled during his employment to a base salary of $500,000, additional compensation, paid quarterly, in an amount equal to 1.33% of the management fee and certain other revenues of Blue Owl (subject to downward adjustment and, in certain circumstances, approval rights in each case as set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement) less the Key Individual’s base salary (subject to a 10% holdback and an annual true-up following receipt of audited Blue Owl financials), and to participate in Blue Owl’s employee benefit plans, as in effect from time to time.

Each Employment Agreement requires the Key Individual to protect the confidential information of Blue Owl both during and after employment. In addition, during the Key Individual’s employment and (i) until two years after the Key Individual’s employment terminates (such Key Individual’s “Termination Date”), such Key Individual is required to refrain from soliciting employees under the circumstances specified therein, (ii) until one year after the Key Individual’s Termination Date, such Key Individual is required to refrain from soliciting Blue Owl’s clients under the circumstances specified therein and (iii) until five years after the Key Individual’s Termination Date (the “Restricted Period”), such Key Individual is required to refrain from interfering with Blue Owl’s relationships with investors and from competing with (a) a business line of Blue Owl’s as of the Key Individual’s Termination Date or (b) a business line planned, as of the Key Individual’s Termination Date, to be implemented within the 12-month period following such Termination Date.

Under the Employment Agreements, Blue Owl may terminate each Key Individual’s employment solely for cause or by reason of his death or disability (as such terms are defined in his Employment Agreement). Furthermore, (i) if Blue Owl terminates such Key Individual’s employment for cause or such Key Individual’s employment is terminated by reason of death or disability, or if such Key Individual terminates employment voluntarily, such Key Individual will be paid accrued but unpaid salary through the date of termination and (ii) if the Key Individual’s employment is terminated for any reason, such Key Individual shall be entitled to an annual amount of 1.33% of annual management fee revenues of Blue Owl during the Restricted Period, but such entitlement does not apply in the case of a termination of such Key Individual’s employment (a) for cause or (b) as a result of voluntary departure by such Key Individual prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing. The continued compensation described in clause (ii) in the preceding sentence is subject to the Key Individual’s execution and delivery to Blue Owl of a general release of claims and continued compliance with his covenants not to compete with Blue Owl and its affiliates during the Restricted Period.

The foregoing description of the Employment Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.10, Exhibit 10.11 and Exhibit 10.12, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

On May 3, 2021, the defendants in GCDM Holdings LP, et al. v. Dyal Capital Partners Mirror Aggregator (A) LP, et. al., pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, filed a motion to dismiss Golub’s complaint. Under the current schedule the motion will be fully briefed on June 16, 2021.

Separately, on May 14, 2021, the Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Delaware Court of Chancery’s entry of final judgment against Sixth Street in Sixth Street Partners Management Company, L.P., et. al v. Dyal Capital Partners III (A) LP, et. al.

Golub Capital Partners also filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on May 4, 2021 against Neuberger Berman and NB Alternatives Advisers LLC. Golub sought a preliminary injunction purportedly to enforce rights in a non-disclosure agreement between Golub Capital and Dyal Capital Partners and asserted related federal and common law trade secret claims arising from the Business Combination. The action is captioned Golub Capital LLC v. NB Alternatives Advisers LLC, No. 21-cv-03991. On May 14, 2021, the court denied Golub’s motion for a preliminary injunction, holding that Golub’s long delay—and the resulting prejudice to the defendants—barred injunctive relief on laches grounds, that Golub Capital had not shown irreparable harm, and that Golub was unlikely to succeed on the merits.

On May 17, 2021, the emergency arbitrator denied Golub’s application for emergency relief in the arbitration proceeding in its entirety on the grounds that Golub failed to show a likelihood of success on the merits or that it would be irreparably harmed and because the balance of equities favored Dyal IV.

Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant’s Common Stock and Related Stockholder Matters

On the business day following the Closing Date, Blue Owl’s Class A common stock and warrants began trading on NYSE under the symbols “OWL” and “OWL.WS,” subject to ongoing review of Blue Owl’s satisfaction of all listing criteria post-Business Combination. Altimar’s public units automatically separated into their component securities upon consummation of the Business Combination and, as a result, no longer trade as a separate security and were delisted from NYSE.

Blue Owl has not paid any cash dividends on shares of its Class A common stock to date. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of the Board.

Item 4.01.

Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On May 19, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board approved the engagement of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as Blue Owl’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit Blue Owl’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. KPMG served as independent registered public accounting firm of Owl Rock and Dyal prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, on May 19, 2021, WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”), Altimar’s independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, was dismissed following completion of the Company’s review of the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which consists only of the accounts of the pre-Business Combination special purpose acquisition company, Altimar.

The reports of Withum on Altimar’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 and the consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2020, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2020, and the subsequent interim period through May 19, 2021, there were no disagreements between the Company and Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Withum, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such period.

During the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2020, and the subsequent interim period through May 19, 2021, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act), except that for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the quarter ended March 31, 2021, based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Altimar concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective solely as a result of the restatement of its financial statements as of and for such periods in light of the SEC Staff Statement dated April 12, 2021 which required Altimar to reclassify the outstanding warrants as liabilities on its balance sheet. Based on the foregoing it was determined that Altimar had a material weakness as of December 31, 2020 relating to its internal controls over financial reporting, and such material weakness had not yet been remediated as of March 31, 2021.

The Company has provided Withum with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has requested that Withum furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company set forth above. A copy of Withum’s letter, dated May 21, 2021, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Other Events.

Registration of Securities of Blue Owl

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, (i) all of Altimar’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock; (ii) all of Altimar’s Class B ordinary shares which were converted into shares of Blue Owl’s Class F common stock in connection with the Domestication were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock, 2,289,375 of which were subsequently forfeited by the Sponsor; and (iii) Altimar’s outstanding public and private warrants were assumed by Blue Owl and became exercisable for shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock on the same terms as were contained in such warrants prior to the Business Combination. By operation of Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act, Blue Owl is the successor issuer to Altimar and has succeeded to the attributes of Altimar as the registrant, including Altimar’s SEC file number (001-39653) and CIK Code (1823945). Blue Owl’s Class A common stock and public warrants are deemed to be registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and Blue Owl will hereafter file reports and other information with the SEC using Altimar’s SEC file number (001-39653).

Blue Owl’s Class A common stock and public warrants are listed for trading on NYSE under the symbols “OWL” and “OWL.WS,” respectively, and the CUSIP numbers relating to the Class A common stock and public warrants are 09581B 103 and 09581B 111, respectively.

Holders of uncertificated shares of Altimar’s Class A common stock immediately prior to the Business Combination have continued as holders of uncertificated shares of Blue Owl’s Class A common stock.

Holders of Altimar’s shares who have filed reports under the Exchange Act with respect to those shares should indicate in their next filing, or any amendment to a prior filing, filed on or after the Closing Date that Blue Owl is the successor to Altimar.

Adoption of Share Repurchase Program

On May 19, 2021, the Board also approved a new share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $100 million of its Class A common stock. The repurchase program has a one-year expiration date. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, by round lot or block purchases, in privately negotiated transactions, or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended, and applicable federal securities laws. The timing of the repurchases and the actual amount repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market and economic conditions, and other factors. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock, and it may be terminated, modified or suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.
