 the Company being allocated a smaller share of an investment than would otherwise be the case in the absence of such side-by-side. Furthermore, Other Clients will be permitted (or have a preferred right) to participate in the Firm’s side-by-side co-investment rights.In certain circumstances, Blackstone Credit & Insurance will determine that a co-investment opportunity should be offered to one or more third parties (such investors, “Co-Investors”), including investors in one or more Other Clients, and will maintain sole discretion with respect to which Co-Investors are offered any such opportunity. We are not restricted from engaging in transactions with Other Clients that are not affiliated persons within the meaning of the 1940 Act. It is expected that many investors who will, in certain circumstances, have expressed an interest in co-investment opportunities will not be offered or allocated any co-investment opportunities or will, in certain circumstances, receive a smaller amount of co-investment opportunities than the amount requested.

Blackstone Credit & Insurance, as a result, will have conflicting incentives in making decisions with respect to such opportunities. Even if the Company and any such parties invest in the same securities on similar terms, conflicts of interest will still arise as a result of differing investment profiles of the investors, among other items, and there is no guarantee that decisions will be made in a manner that prioritizes the interests of the Company over those of such other parties.a.General Co-Investment Considerations. There are expected to be circumstances where an amount that would otherwise have been invested by the Company is instead allocated to co-investors (who could be shareholders of the Company or limited partners of Other Clients) or supplemental capital vehicles, and there is no guarantee that any shareholders will be offered any particular co-investment opportunity. Each co-investment opportunity (should any exist) is likely to
