      NEW YORK, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (NYSE: OZM)  (the "Company" or "Och-Ziff") today reported a GAAP Net Loss(1) for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2009 of $47.2 million, or $0.58 per basic and diluted Class A Share, and $297.4 million, or $3.79 per basic and diluted Class A Share, respectively.  The Company also declared a $0.58 per share fourth quarter cash dividend on its Class A Shares.

      Summary Highlights

      • Distributable Earnings for the 2009 fourth quarter and full year of $281.4 million, or $0.69 per Adjusted Class A Share, and $355.3 million, or $0.88 per Adjusted Class A Share, respectively
      • Assets under management of $23.5 billion as of January 1, 2010,  a 6% increase from $22.1 billion as of January 1, 2009, reflecting performance-related appreciation of $4.2 billion partially offset by $2.8 billion in net outflows
      • Estimated assets under management of $24.0 billion as of February 1, 2010, reflecting capital inflows of approximately $250 million and performance-related appreciation of approximately $250 million
      • Full-year net returns through December 31, 2009 for the OZ Master Fund of 23.1%, the OZ Europe Master Fund of 16.4%, the OZ Asia Master Fund of 34.0% and the OZ Global Special Investments Master Fund of 8.4%

      "Last year was a very strong year for us, both on an absolute and a relative basis," said Daniel Och, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Och-Ziff.  "We surpassed the high-water marks on our assets under management, with our OZ Master Fund having one of its best years ever and our Asia Master Fund achieving record performance.  We maintained a disciplined focus on our long-standing investment and risk management processes which, when combined with the flexibility of our multi-strategy approach and the stability of our model, was central to the strength of our returns last year.  We believe these attributes, which have continued to serve us well in 2010, position us to generate strong performance for our fund investors over the long term.

      "We believe that the capital inflow cycle for the hedge fund industry has begun, and that our assets under management will grow over time.  Institutional investors remain extremely focused on manager selection, and we remain confident that our track record, infrastructure and demonstrated alignment of interests with our fund investors will continue to differentiate us in the marketplace."

      (1) References to the Company's GAAP Net Loss throughout this press release refer to the Company's GAAP Net Loss Allocated to Class A Shareholders.

      GAAP NET LOSS ALLOCATED TO CLASS A SHAREHOLDERS

      For the 2009 fourth quarter, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP Net Loss of $47.2 million, or $0.58 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared to a GAAP Net Loss of $112.2 million, or $1.49 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the 2008 fourth quarter.  For the 2009 full year, Och-Ziff reported a GAAP Net Loss of $297.4 million, or $3.79 per basic and diluted Class A Share, compared to a GAAP Net Loss of $510.6 million, or $6.86 per basic and diluted Class A Share, for the 2008 full year.

      The year-over-year reduction in the GAAP Net Loss in both periods was principally due to higher Incentive Income resulting from the performance-related appreciation in the Company's funds, as well as the adoption of SFAS No. 160.  These factors were partially offset by higher compensation expenses primarily related to the increase in discretionary cash bonuses, and lower Management Fees due to decreased average assets under management.

      The GAAP Net Loss in the 2009 fourth quarter and full year primarily resulted from non-cash expenses of $442.6 million and $1.7 billion, respectively, associated with the Company's reorganization in connection with its initial public offering ("IPO") in November 2007.  These expenses are related to the amortization of Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units ("Group A Units"), which represent equity interests in the Company's principal operating subsidiaries (the "Och-Ziff Operating Group") that were issued to the Company's pre-IPO owners in exchange for their pre-IPO interests in those subsidiaries.  Substantially all of the Group A Units vest annually over five years until November 2012.  Accordingly, the amortization of these expenses is expected to result in a GAAP Net Loss each quarter through the end of 2012.  Once vested, the Group A Units may be exchanged on a one-to-one basis for Class A Shares.

      Additionally, the GAAP Net Loss in the 2009 fourth quarter and full year was attributable to non-cash expenses of $36.4 million and $122.5 million, respectively, for the amortization of equity-based compensation.  This expense relates primarily to Class A Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") awarded to all of the Company's employees in connection with the IPO, which vest annually over four years from the closing of the IPO, and subsequent compensation-related grants.  Each RSU represents the right to receive one Class A Share upon vesting.

      Throughout this press release, the Company presents financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP.  For a discussion of all of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures, please see the discussion "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.    

      DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS (NON-GAAP)

      The Company's Distributable Earnings for the 2009 fourth quarter were $281.4 million, or $0.69 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared with $28.9 million, or $0.07 per Adjusted Class A Share, in the 2008 fourth quarter.  Distributable Earnings for the 2009 full year were $355.3 million, or $0.88 per Adjusted Class A Share, compared with $185.2 million, or $0.46 per Adjusted Class A Share, for the 2008 full year.  The year-over-year increase in Distributable Earnings for both periods was primarily due to higher Incentive Income in 2009 as the Company had positive performance and surpassed the high-water marks on its assets under management during the second half of 2009, as well as lower non-compensation costs.  The increase was partially offset by lower Management Fees due to lower average assets under management, as well as higher compensation expenses, due principally to increased discretionary cash bonuses.

      Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure.  For reconciliations of Distributable Earnings to the respective GAAP Net Loss for the periods described above, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.  Additionally, please see the discussion of "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

      ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

      Och-Ziff's assets under management were $23.1 billion as of December 31, 2009, 4% higher than the $22.3 billion in assets under management as of September 30, 2009 but 14% lower than the $27.0 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2008.  The $3.9 billion year-over-year decrease was driven by net outflows of $8.1 billion, partially offset by performance-related appreciation of $4.2 billion during the year.  

      During the 2009 fourth quarter, the $802 million increase in assets under management was driven by performance-related appreciation of approximately $497 million and net inflows of approximately $305 million.  Assets under management as of January 1, 2010 were $23.5 billion, which reflected January 1, 2010 capital inflows (net of redemption requests received for December 31, 2009) of approximately $400 million.  The Company believes that the capital inflow cycle for the hedge fund industry has begun and that Och-Ziff will continue to generate fund investor interest.

      Estimated assets under management as of February 1, 2010 were $24.0 billion, which reflected February 1, 2010 capital inflows (net of redemption requests received for January 31, 2010) of approximately $250 million and performance-related appreciation of approximately $250 million.

      Investment Performance

      In the 2009 fourth quarter, performance-related appreciation was due primarily to attractive investment opportunities in merger arbitrage and long/short equities across all geographies, distressed credit in the U.S. and Europe, and structured credit, particularly in residential mortgage-backed securities.

      ECONOMIC INCOME OF THE OCH-ZIFF FUNDS SEGMENT

      The Company conducts substantially all of its business through the Och-Ziff Funds segment, which is currently the Company's only reportable segment.  This segment provides management and advisory services to the Company's hedge funds and separately managed accounts.

      The measures discussed below are presented on an Economic Income basis.  For reconciliations of these segment measures to the respective GAAP measures, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.  Additionally, please see the discussion of "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

      Total Revenues – Economic Income Basis

      Total Revenues for the 2009 fourth quarter were $440.6 million, a 214% increase from Total Revenues for the 2008 fourth quarter of $140.4 million.  Management Fees were $94.3 million, 29% lower than Management Fees in the prior year period of $133.2 million.  Incentive Income was $345.6 million, compared with $6.7 million for the 2008 fourth quarter.

      Total Revenues for the 2009 full year were $707.9 million, a 21% increase from Total Revenues for the 2008 full year of $587.0 million.  Management Fees were $357.5 million, 37% lower than Management Fees in the prior year period of $571.3 million.  Incentive Income was $348.9 million, compared with $12.2 million for the 2008 full year.

      Total Revenues were higher year-over-year for both periods as a result of increased Incentive Income due to positive fund performance in 2009 as the Company surpassed the high-water marks on its assets under management during the second half of 2009.  This increase was partially offset by lower Management Fees due to the decline in average assets under management, resulting from investor redemptions in the fourth quarter of 2008 and first half of 2009.  

      Compensation and Benefits – Economic Income Basis

      Compensation and Benefits expenses for the 2009 fourth quarter were $107.4 million, 67% higher than $64.3 million for the 2008 fourth quarter. Compensation and Benefits expenses for the 2009 full year were $193.9 million, 37% higher than $141.3 million for the 2008 full year.  

      Compensation and Benefits expenses increased year-over-year for both periods due primarily to increased discretionary cash bonuses related to the increase in Incentive Income.  Partially offsetting this increase was the year-over-year decline in salaries and benefits expense due to lower headcount.

      Non-compensation Expenses – Economic Income Basis

      Non-compensation Expenses for the 2009 fourth quarter were $21.8 million, a 38% decrease from Non-compensation Expenses for the 2008 fourth quarter of $35.0 million.  

      Non-compensation Expenses for the 2009 full year were $90.0 million, a 31% decrease from  $130.0 million for the 2008 full year.  

      The decrease in both periods was driven principally by lower professional services fees, and, in the full-year period, by a decline in business development costs. Also contributing to the decrease in both periods was lower interest expense on the Company's variable rate borrowings due to the decline in LIBOR. The overall decline in Non-compensation Expenses in both periods was partially offset by higher occupancy expense related to the expansion of leased office space, and, in the full-year period, by higher insurance costs.

      Economic Income

      Economic Income for the 2009 fourth quarter was $311.4 million, compared with $41.1 million for the 2008 fourth quarter.  Economic Income for the 2009 full year was $424.0 million, a 34% increase from $315.8 million for the 2008 full year.  

      ECONOMIC INCOME OF THE COMPANY'S OTHER OPERATIONS (NON-GAAP)

      The Company's Other Operations are comprised of its real estate business, which manages and provides advisory services to its real estate funds, and investments in new businesses established to expand certain of the Company's private investment platforms.  The businesses within Other Operations are currently in early growth stages, and are not included in the results of the Och-Ziff Funds segment.  

      Economic Income for the Company's Other Operations for the 2009 fourth quarter was a net loss of $7.5 million, compared with a net loss of $6.4 million for the 2008 fourth quarter. Economic Income for the 2009 full year was a net loss of $20.3 million, compared with a net loss of $11.4 million for the 2008 full year.  The increase in the Economic Income net loss for both periods was principally the result of compensation costs associated with the Company's Asia real estate business, which began operations in September 2008, and the Company's domestic real estate business.  The overall increase in net loss in both periods was partially offset by a year-over-year decline in the Company's share of the start-up costs associated with its African joint venture.  

      Economic Income for Other Operations as discussed above is a non-GAAP measure.  For reconciliations of Economic Income of the Company's Other Operations to the respective GAAP Net Loss for the periods described above, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.  Additionally, please see the discussion of "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

      ECONOMIC INCOME OF THE TOTAL COMPANY (NON-GAAP)  

      Economic Income for the Total Company for the 2009 fourth quarter was $303.8 million, compared with $34.7 million for the 2008 fourth quarter.  Economic Income for the Total Company for the 2009 full year was $403.7 million, a 33% increase from $304.4 million for the 2008 full year.

      Economic Income for the Total Company as discussed above is a non-GAAP measure.  For reconciliations of Economic Income for the Total Company to the respective GAAP Net Loss for the periods described above, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.  Additionally, please see the discussion of "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

      CAPITAL

      As of December 31, 2009, the number of Class A Shares outstanding was 81,823,915.  For purposes of calculating Distributable Earnings per Share, the Company assumes that all Partner Units (as defined below) and RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2009 have been converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares.  For the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2009, the total weighted-average Adjusted Class A Shares outstanding were 406,611,760 and 404,086,835, respectively.

      DIVIDEND

      The Board of Directors of Och-Ziff declared a 2009 fourth quarter cash dividend of $0.58 per Class A Share, to be paid on February 18, 2010 to holders of record at the close of business on December 31, 2009.

      For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the dividend will be treated as a partnership distribution.  Based on the best information currently available, the Company estimates that when calculating withholding taxes, $0.14 of the 2009 fourth quarter dividend will be treated as U.S. source dividend income.

      Non-U.S. holders of Class A Shares are generally subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% (subject to reduction by applicable treaty or other exception) on their share of U.S. source dividends and certain other types of U.S. source income realized by the Company.  With respect to interest, however, no withholding is generally required if proper certification (on an IRS Form W-8) of a beneficial owner's foreign status has been filed with the withholding agent.  In addition, non-U.S. holders must generally provide the withholding agent with a properly completed IRS Form W-8 to obtain any reduction in withholding.

      Och-Ziff will host a conference call today, February 11, 2010, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Company's 2009 fourth quarter and full year results.  The call will be open to the public and can be accessed by dialing 888-679-8018 (callers inside the U.S.) or 617-213-4845 (callers outside the U.S.).  The number should be dialed at least ten minutes prior to the start of the call.  The passcode for the call will be 49523803.  A simultaneous webcast of the call will be available to the public on a listen-only basis on the For Shareholders page of the Company's website at www.ozcap.com.

      For those unable to listen to the live broadcast, a replay will be available by dialing 888-286-8010 (callers inside the U.S.) or 617-801-6888 (callers outside the U.S.), passcode 57791938, beginning approximately two hours after the event for two weeks.  A webcast replay of the event will also be available on the For Shareholders page of the Company's website.

      Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures

      In addition to analyzing the Company's results on a GAAP basis, Och-Ziff's management also reviews the Company's results on an "Economic Income basis." Economic Income excludes the adjustments described below that are required for presentation of the Company's results on a GAAP basis, but that management does not consider when evaluating the operating performance of the Company in any given period. Management therefore uses Economic Income as the basis on which it evaluates the performance of the Company's business and makes resource allocation and other operating decisions.  In addition, management believes that Economic Income provides a more comparable view of the Company's operating performance from period to period.  Management considers it important that investors review the same operating information that it uses.

      Economic Income is a measure of pre-tax operating performance that excludes the following from the Company's GAAP Net Loss:

      • income allocations to the Company's partners and Ziff Brothers Investments (the "Ziffs") on their direct interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group. Management reviews operating performance at the Och-Ziff Operating Group level, where substantially all of the Company's operations are performed, prior to making any income allocations;
      • reorganization expenses related to amortization of the Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units, equity-based compensation expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses, as management does not consider these non-cash expenses when evaluating operating performance;
      • changes in the tax receivable agreement liability and net gains on early retirement of debt, as management does not consider these items to be reflective of the Company's operating performance;
      • net earnings (losses) on the deferred balances and net gains (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as these amounts primarily relate to earnings (losses) on amounts due to the Company's partners and the Ziffs for pre-IPO deferred or reinvested incentive income, and gains (losses) on amounts due to employees under deferred cash compensation arrangements, and as such, are not reflective of the Company's operating performance; and
      • amounts related to the consolidated Och-Ziff funds, including the related eliminations of management fees and incentive income, as management reviews the total amount of management fees and incentive income earned from the Och-Ziff funds in relation to total assets under management and fund performance.  

      In addition, deferred cash compensation expense is recognized in the period in which it is awarded, as management determines the total amount of compensation based on the Company's performance in the year of the award.

      Management evaluates Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment, the Company's one reportable segment under GAAP, and for the Company's Other Operations.  Economic Income for Other Operations is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated on the same basis as the methodology that is used to calculate Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment. Management also evaluates Economic Income for the Total Company, which is a non-GAAP measure that equals the sum of Economic Income for the Och-Ziff Funds segment and Other Operations. In addition, as a result of the adjustments described above, Management Fees, Compensation and Benefits, Non-compensation Expenses and Net Loss (Income) Allocated to Partners' and Others' Interests in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries are presented on an Economic Income basis for Other Operations and the Total Company and are also non-GAAP measures. No adjustments to the GAAP basis have been made for Incentive Income, Other Revenues and Net Losses on Joint Ventures. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the respective GAAP measures, please see Exhibits 3 through 6 of the financial tables that accompany this press release.

      Distributable Earnings is a non-GAAP measure of after-tax operating performance and equals Economic Income for the Total Company (as defined above) less Adjusted Income Taxes.  Adjusted Income Taxes are estimated assuming the conversion of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one basis. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group allocated to the partners is treated as if it were allocated to Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC.  Partner Units represent interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group held by the partners and the Ziffs, including the Group A Units and other non-equity interests.  Distributable Earnings per Share is equal to Distributable Earnings divided by the weighted-average number of Adjusted Class A Shares.  Adjusted Class A Shares are determined assuming all Partner Units and RSUs were converted on a one-to-one basis into Class A Shares. Management uses Distributable Earnings, among other financial data, to determine the earnings available to distribute as dividends to holders of the Company's Class A Shares and to the Company's partners and the Ziffs with respect to their Partner Units.

      The Company's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the Company's GAAP Net Loss or cash flow from operations, or as indicative of liquidity or the cash available to fund operations.

      Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are included in the tables attached to this press release.

          (1) The Och-Ziff Funds segment is the Company's only reportable segment.  
              Management uses Economic Income to evaluate the financial
              performance of and to make operating decisions for the segment.  
              For reconciliations of these segment measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP
              measures, see Exhibits 3 through 6. 
          (2) Each of the measures below is a non-GAAP financial measure, with the 
              exception of incentive income, other revenues and net losses on joint
              ventures, for which no adjustments to the U.S. GAAP basis have been 
              made. Management calculates non-GAAP financial measures on an
              Economic Income basis for the Company's Other Operations and for the 
              Company as a whole to assess the financial performance of the 
              Company's entire business. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP 
              measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures, see Exhibits 3 through 6.
          (3) Represents the Company's losses in joint ventures established to 
              expand certain of the Company's private investments platforms. 
          (4) Represents the residual interests in the domestic real estate 
              management business not owned by the Company.

          (1) See Exhibit 7 for a description of the adjustments made to arrive at 
              Total Company U.S. GAAP Net Loss. 
          (2) The Och-Ziff Funds segment is the Company's only reportable segment.  
              Management uses Economic Income to evaluate the financial
              performance of and to make operating decisions for the segment. 
          (3) Each of the measures below is a non-GAAP financial measure, with the 
              exception of incentive income, other revenues and net losses on joint
              ventures, for which no adjustments to the U.S. GAAP basis have been 
              made. Management calculates non-GAAP financial measures on an Economic
              Income basis for the Company's Other Operations and for the Company as
              a whole to assess the financial performance of the Company's entire 
              business. 
          (4) Presents an estimate of income tax expense by assuming the conversion 
              of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one 
              basis. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group 
              allocated to the partners is treated as if it were allocated to
              Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC.

          (1) See Exhibit 7 for a description of the adjustments made to arrive at 
              Total Company U.S. GAAP Net Loss. 
          (2) The Och-Ziff Funds segment is the Company's only reportable segment.  
              Management uses Economic Income to evaluate the financial
              performance of and to make operating decisions for the segment. 
          (3) Each of the measures below is a non-GAAP financial measure, with the 
              exception of incentive income, other revenues and net losses on joint
              ventures, for which no adjustments to the U.S. GAAP basis have been 
              made. Management calculates non-GAAP financial measures on an Economic
              Income basis for the Company's Other Operations and for the Company as
              a whole to assess the financial performance of the Company's entire 
              business. 
          (4) Presents an estimate of income tax expense by assuming the conversion 
              of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one 
              basis. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group 
              allocated to the partners is treated as if it were allocated to
              Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC.

          (1) See Exhibit 7 for a description of the adjustments made to arrive at 
              Total Company U.S. GAAP Net Loss. 
          (2) The Och-Ziff Funds segment is the Company's only reportable segment.  
              Management uses Economic Income to evaluate the financial
              performance of and to make operating decisions for the segment. 
          (3) Each of the measures below is a non-GAAP financial measure, with the 
              exception of incentive income, other revenues and net losses on joint
              ventures, for which no adjustments to the U.S. GAAP basis have been 
              made. Management calculates non-GAAP financial measures on an Economic
              Income basis for the Company's Other Operations and for the Company as
              a whole to assess the financial performance of the
              Company's entire business. 
          (4) Presents an estimate of income tax expense by assuming the conversion 
              of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one 
              basis. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group 
              allocated to the partners is treated as if it were allocated to
              Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC.

          (1) See Exhibit 7 for a description of the adjustments made to arrive at 
              Total Company U.S. GAAP Net Loss. 
          (2) The Och-Ziff Funds segment is the Company's only reportable segment.  
              Management uses Economic Income to evaluate the financial
              performance of and to make operating decisions for the segment. 
          (3) Each of the measures below is a non-GAAP financial measure, with the 
              exception of incentive income, other revenues and net losses on joint
              ventures, for which no adjustments to the U.S. GAAP basis have been 
              made. Management calculates non-GAAP financial measures on an Economic
              Income basis for the Company's Other Operations and for the Company as
              a whole to assess the financial performance of the Company's entire 
              business. 
          (4) Presents an estimate of income tax expense by assuming the conversion 
              of all outstanding Partner Units into Class A Shares, on a one-to-one 
              basis. Therefore, all income (loss) of the Och-Ziff Operating Group 
              allocated to the partners is treated as if it were allocated to
              Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC.

             Description of Adjustments Made to Reconcile Economic Income to 
                                      U.S. GAAP Net Loss
          
          Funds Consolidation   
            Economic Income excludes the impacts of consolidated Och-Ziff funds, 
            including the related eliminations.   
          
          Other Adjustments   
          (a) Economic Income presents management fees net of recurring placement 
              and related service fees on assets under management, as management 
              considers these fees a reduction in management fees, not an expense. 
          (b) Economic Income recognizes deferred cash compensation expense in full 
              in the period in which it is awarded, as management determines the 
              total amount of compensation based on the Company's performance in 
              the year of the award.   
          (c) Economic Income excludes equity-based compensation expense, as 
              management does not consider these non-cash expenses when evaluating 
              the performance of the Company. The Company includes the number of 
              shares granted in its Adjusted Class A Share count when determining 
              Distributable Earnings Per Share.   
          (d) Economic Income excludes allocations to non-equity partner interests.
              Management reviewed the performance of the Company before it made any 
              allocations to the Company's non-equity partners for periods prior to 
              the Reorganization.  For these periods, allocations to the partners, 
              other than Mr. Och, were treated as expenses for U.S. GAAP purposes.  
              Following the Reorganization, only allocations to the partners, other 
              than Mr. Och, related to earnings on deferred balances are incurred 
              and these allocations are excluded from Economic Income.   
          (e) Economic Income excludes Reorganization expenses, which are non-cash 
              expenses directly attributable to the reclassification of interests 
              held by the partners and the Ziffs prior to the Reorganization as 
              Och-Ziff Operating Group A Units.   
          (f) Economic Income excludes the profit sharing expenses related to the 
              Ziffs' interest in the Company.  Management reviewed the performance 
              of the Company before it made any allocations to the Ziffs for periods
              prior to the Reorganization.  Following the Reorganization, only 
              profit sharing expense related to the allocation of earnings on 
              deferred balances are incurred and these allocations are excluded from
              Economic Income.   
          (g) Economic Income excludes depreciation, changes in the tax receivable 
              agreement liability, and net gains on early retirement of debt, as 
              management does not consider these items when evaluating the 
              performance of the Company. Economic Income also excludes income taxes
              as it is a measure of pre-tax performance.   
          (h) Economic Income excludes the net earnings (losses) on the deferred 
              balances and net gains (losses) on investments in Och-Ziff funds, as 
              these amounts primarily relate to earnings (losses) on amounts due to 
              affiliates for deferred balances, and earnings (losses) on amounts 
              due to partners and employees under deferred cash compensation 
              arrangements that are indexed to the returns of certain funds.   
          (i) Economic Income excludes amounts allocated to the partners and the 
              Ziffs on their interests in the Och-Ziff Operating Group, as 
              management reviews the performance of the Company at the Och-Ziff 
              Operating Group level.  The Company conducts substantially all of its 
              activities through the Och-Ziff Operating Group.  Additionally, 
              Economic Income excludes amounts allocated to investors in 
              consolidated Och-Ziff funds, as Economic Income excludes the impacts 
              of consolidated Och-Ziff funds.

          (1) Includes deferred incentive income receivable from the offshore funds 
              and amounts invested by the Company, its partners and certain other
              affiliated parties for which the Company charged no management fees 
              and received no incentive income for the periods presented.  Amounts
              presented in this table are not the amounts used to calculate 
              Management Fees and Incentive Income for the respective periods. 
          (2) Appreciation (depreciation) reflects the aggregate net capital 
              appreciation (depreciation) for the entire period and is presented on 
              a total return basis, net of all fees and expenses (except incentive 
              income on certain unrealized private investments that could reduce 
              returns on these investments at the time of realization), and includes
              the reinvestment of all dividends and income.  Management Fees and 
              Incentive Income vary by product.  Past performance is no guarantee of
              future results. 
          (3) Reflects a composite of the monthly return and year-to-date return for
              the feeder funds comprising each of the Company's most significant
              master funds and is presented on a total return basis, net of all 
              fees and expenses of the relevant fund (except incentive income on 
              certain unrealized special investments that could reduce returns at 
              the time of realization), and includes the reinvestment of all 
              dividends and income. Performance includes realized and unrealized 
              gains and losses attributable to certain private and initial public 
              offering investments that are not allocated to all investors in the 
              funds.  Investors that do not participate in such investments or that 
              pay different fees may experience materially different returns.  Past 
              performance is no guarantee of future results.

          Total net return for the OZ Master Fund (the "Fund") represents a 
          composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise the 
          Fund.  Returns are presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and 
          expenses (except incentive income on certain unrealized private 
          investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of 
          realization), and include the reinvestment of all dividends and income.  
          Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable
          to certain private and initial public offering investments that are not 
          allocated to all investors in the Fund.  Investors that do not participate
          in such investments or that pay different fees may experience materially 
          different returns.  Past performance is no guarantee of future results. 
          
          For the period from 1994 through 1997, performance represents the 
          performance of Och-Ziff Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited 
          partnership that was managed by Daniel Och following an investment 
          strategy that is substantially similar to that of the Fund.  In addition, 
          during this period, performance was calculated by deducting Management 
          Fees on a quarterly basis and Incentive Income on a monthly basis.  
          Beginning January 1998, performance has been calculated by deducting both 
          Management Fees and Incentive Income on a monthly basis from the composite
          returns of the Fund. 
          
          Readers should not assume that there is any material overlap between those
          securities in the portfolio of the Fund and those that comprise the S&P 
          500 Index.  It is not possible to invest directly in the S&P 500 Index.  
          Returns of the S&P 500 Index have not been reduced by fees and expenses 
          associated with investing in securities and include the reinvestment of 
          dividends.  The S&P 500 Index is an equity index owned and maintained by 
          Standard & Poor's, a division of McGraw-Hill, whose value is calculated as
          the free float-weighted average of the share prices of 500 large-cap 
          corporations listed on the NYSE and Nasdaq.  The comparison of S&P 500 
          Index performance relative to the Fund's performance during months in 
          which the S&P 500 Index declined is for the limited purpose of 
          illustrating how the Fund has performed during periods of declines in the 
          broad equity market.  It should not be considered an indication of how the
          Fund will perform relative to the S&P 500 Index in the future. 
          
          Please note that the Fund's investment objective is not to beat the S&P 
          500 Index.  Furthermore, the Fund's performance has frequently trailed 
          that of the S&P 500 Index in periods of positive performance.

          (1) Fund performance reflects a composite of the return for the feeder 
              funds comprising each of the Company's most significant master
              funds and is presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and 
              expenses of the relevant fund (except incentive income on certain
              unrealized private investments that could reduce returns on these 
              investments at the time of realization), and includes the
              reinvestment of all dividends and income.  Performance includes 
              realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable to certain
              private and initial public offering investments that are not allocated
              to all investors in the funds.  Investors that do not participate in
              such investments or that pay different fees may experience materially 
              different returns.  Past performance is no guarantee of future
              results. 
          (2) Readers should not assume that there is any material overlap between 
              those securities in the portfolios of the funds and those that
              comprise the S&P 500 Index. It is not possible to invest directly in 
              the S&P 500 Index. Returns of the S&P 500 Index have not been
              reduced by fees and expenses associated with investing in securities 
              and include the reinvestment of dividends. The S&P 500 Index is
              an equity index owned and maintained by Standard & Poor's, a division 
              of McGraw-Hill, whose value is calculated as the free float-weighted 
              average of the share prices of 500 large-cap corporations listed on 
              the NYSE and Nasdaq. The comparison of S&P 500 performance relative to
              the funds' performance should not be considered an indication of how 
              the fund will perform relative to the S&P 500 in the future. Please 
              note that the funds' investment objective is not to beat the S&P 500 
              Index. Furthermore, the funds' performance has frequently trailed that
              of the S&P 500 Index in periods of positive performance.

          Total net return for the OZ Master Fund (the "Fund") represents a 
          composite of the average return of the feeder funds that comprise the 
          Fund. Returns are presented on a total return basis, net of all fees and 
          expenses (except incentive income on certain unrealized private 
          investments that could reduce returns on these investments at the time of 
          realization), and include the reinvestment of all dividends and income. 
          Performance includes realized and unrealized gains and losses attributable
          to certain private and initial public offering investments that are not 
          allocated to all investors in the Fund. Investors that do not participate 
          in such investments or that pay different fees may experience materially 
          different returns. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. 
          
          Readers should not assume that there is any material overlap between those
          securities in the portfolio of the Fund and those that comprise the S&P 
          500 Index. It is not possible to invest directly in the S&P 500 Index. 
          Returns of the S&P 500 Index have not been reduced by fees and expenses 
          associated with investing in securities and include the reinvestment of 
          dividends. The S&P 500 Index is an equity index owned and maintained by 
          Standard & Poor's, a division of McGraw-Hill, whose value is calculated as
          the free float-weighted average of the share prices of 500 large-cap 
          corporations listed on the NYSE and Nasdaq. The comparison of S&P 500 
          Index performance relative to the Fund's performance should not be 
          considered an indication of how the Fund will perform relative to the S&P 
          500 Index in the future. 
          
          Correlation to the returns of the S&P 500 Index represents a statistical 
          measure of the degree to which the return of one portfolio is correlated 
          to the return of another. It is expressed as a factor that ranges from -
          1.0 (perfectly inversely correlated) to +1.0 (perfectly positively 
          correlated). 
          
          Standard deviation is a statistical measure of the degree to which an 
          individual value in a distribution tends to vary from the mean of the 
          distribution.  
          
          Sharpe Ratio represents a measure of the investment returns as adjusted 
          for risk. The Sharpe Ratio is calculated by subtracting a "risk-free" rate
          from the composite returns, and dividing that amount by the standard 
          deviation of the returns. A higher Sharpe Ratio indicates a portfolio that
          generates a return that is higher than would be expected for the level of
          risk in the portfolio as compared to the risk-free rate. The risk-free 
          rate is one-month LIBOR.
