Disclosures

Before investing, consider the Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Oaktree Fund Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser” and, collectively with its affiliates, referred to as “Oaktree”).

The words “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Fund” refer to Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund.

This sales and advertising literature is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any. An offering is made only by the Fund's prospectus. This literature must be read in conjunction with the Fund's prospectus in order to fully understand all of the implications and risks of the offering of securities to which the Fund's prospectus relates. A copy of the Fund's prospectus must be made available to you in connection with any offering. Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission, nor any other state securities regulator has approved or disapproved of our common shares, determined if the Fund's prospectus is truthful or complete, or passed on or endorsed the merits of the offering. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Risk Factors

An investment in common shares (the “shares”) of beneficial interest in Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund involves a high degree of risk. You should only purchase shares of Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund if you can afford to lose your complete investment. Prior to making an investment, you should read the Fund's prospectus, including the “Risk Factors” section therein, which contains a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund believes are material to its business, operating results, prospects and financial condition. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund has no prior operating history and there is no assurance that it will achieve its investment objective.
This is a “blind pool” offering and thus you will not have the opportunity to evaluate Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s investments before it makes them.
You should not expect to be able to sell your shares regardless of how well Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund performs.
You should consider that you may not have access to the money you invest for an extended period of time.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund does not intend to list the shares on any securities exchange, and it does not expect a secondary market in the shares to develop prior to any listing.
Because you may be unable to sell your shares, you will be unable to reduce your exposure in any market downturn.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund has implemented a share repurchase program, but only a limited number of shares will be eligible for repurchase, and repurchases will be subject to available liquidity and other significant restrictions.
An investment in the shares is not suitable for you if you need access to the money you invest. See “Suitability Standards” and “Share Repurchase Program” in the Fund's prospectus.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund cannot guarantee that it will make distributions, and if it does, it may fund such distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital or offering proceeds, and there are no limits on the amounts Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund may pay from such sources.
Distributions may also be funded in significant part, directly or indirectly, from temporary waivers or expense reimbursements borne by Oaktree Fund Advisers, LLC (the “Adviser”) or its affiliates and which may be subject to reimbursement to the Adviser or its affiliates. The repayment of any amounts owed to Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s affiliates will reduce future distributions to which you would otherwise be entitled.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund is using and expects to continue to use leverage, which will magnify the potential loss on amounts invested in it.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, which means that it is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting and disclosure requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies, and Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund cannot be certain whether or not the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make its shares less attractive to investors.
Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund intends to invest in securities that are rated below investment grade by rating agencies or that would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below-investment-grade securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. They may also be illiquid and difficult to value.

Forward-Looking Statements

The sales and advertising literature presented on this website contains forward-looking statements about Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s business, including, in particular, statements about its plans, strategies and objectives. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue” or other similar words. These statements include Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions, plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds, and they are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to accurately predict and most of which are beyond Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s control. Although Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund believes the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements, and the forward-looking statements themselves, are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there is no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, and Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s actual results, performance and achievements may be materially different from that expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund or any person that the Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s objectives and plans, which it considers to be reasonable, will be achieved.

You should carefully review the “Risk Factors” section of the Fund's prospectus, and any updated factors included in Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which will be accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, for a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund believes are material to its business, operating results, prospects and financial condition. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive, and they should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this document (or the Fund's prospectus and other SEC filings). Except as otherwise required by federal securities laws, Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund does not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
