 Section 1.3
Assumptions and Calculations with respect to Collateral Loans 

  
 - 56 - 








 In connection with all calculations required to be made pursuant to this Agreement with respect
to Scheduled Distributions on any Collateral Loans, or any payments on any other assets included in the Collateral, with respect to the sale of and reinvestment in Collateral Loans, and with respect to the income that can be earned on Scheduled
Distributions on such Collateral Loans and on any other amounts that may be received for deposit in the Collection Account, the provisions set forth in this Section 1.3 shall be applied. The provisions of this Section 1.3 shall be
applicable to any determination or calculation that is covered by this Section 1.3, whether or not reference is specifically made to Section 1.3, unless some other method of calculation or determination is expressly specified in the
particular provision. 
 (a) Scheduled interest due on Collateral Loans on which payments are subject to withholding taxes will be the
minimum net amount to be received after giving effect to the maximum permitted withholding and to any “gross-up” payments required to be made by the related Obligor pursuant to such loan’s
Related Contracts. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all monetary calculations under this
Agreement shall be in Dollars. 
 (c) The determination of the percentage of Total Capitalization that would be represented by a specified
type of Collateral Loans will be calculated by dividing the Aggregate Maximum Principal Balance of such specified type of Collateral Loans by Total Capitalization. For purposes of this Section 1.3(c), a “type” of Collateral Loan shall
correspond to each clause of the definition of “Concentration Limitations” and clause (f) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria”. 

(d) Any portion of a Collateral Loan or other loan or security owned of record by the Borrower that has been assigned by the Borrower to a
third party and released from the Lien of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof shall no longer constitute Collateral or a Collateral Loan hereunder. 

(e) For purposes of calculating the Coverage Tests, except as otherwise specified in the Coverage Tests, such calculations will not include
scheduled interest and principal payments on Defaulted Loans unless or until such payments are actually made. 
 (f) For each Due Period and
as of any date of determination, the Scheduled Distribution on any Collateral Loans (other than Defaulted Loans, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have a Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the
total amount of payments and collections to be received during such Due Period in respect of such Collateral Loans (including the proceeds of the sale of such Collateral Loans received and, in the case of sales which have not yet settled, to be
received during such Due Period) and not reinvested in additional Collateral Loans or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to Section 8.2 that, if received as scheduled, will be available in the Collection
Account at the end of such Due Period and (ii) any such amounts received in prior Due Periods that were not disbursed on a previous Quarterly Payment Date or retained in the Collection Account for subsequent reinvestment pursuant to
Section 8.2. 
 (g) Each Scheduled Distribution receivable with respect to a Collateral Loan shall be assumed to be received on the
applicable Due Date. 
 (h) References in the Priority of Payments to calculations made on a “pro forma basis” shall mean such
calculations after giving effect to all payments, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, that precede (in priority of payment) or include the clause in which such calculation is made. 

  
 - 57 - 








 (i) For purposes of calculating all Concentration Limitations, in the numerator of any component
of the Concentration Limitations, Defaulted Loans will be treated as having a Maximum Principal Balance equal to zero. 
 (j) Except as
otherwise provided herein, Defaulted Loans will not be included in the calculation of the Collateral Quality Test. 
 (k) For purposes of
calculating the Coverage Tests, the Collateral Quality Test and the Concentration Limitations, capitalized or deferred interest (and any other interest that is not paid in cash) on Collateral Loans will be excluded other than any capitalized or
deferred interest that is acquired using Principal Proceeds or the proceeds of any Borrowing. 
 (l) References in this Agreement to the
Borrower’s “purchase” or “acquisition” of a Collateral Loan include references to the Borrower’s making or origination of such Collateral Loan. Portions of the same Collateral Loan acquired or originated by the Borrower
on different dates (whether through purchase, receipt by contribution or the making or origination thereof, but excluding subsequent draws under Revolving Collateral Loans or Delayed Funding Loans) will, for purposes of determining the purchase
price of such Collateral Loan, be treated as separate purchases on separate dates (and not a weighted average purchase price for any particular Collateral Loan). Each Collateral Loan that is originated by the Borrower shall be deemed to have a
“purchase price” of par. 
 (m) For purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Spread or Weighted Average Coupon, (i) a
Collateral Loan that is a Step-Down Loan will be treated as having the lowest per annum interest rate or spread over the applicable index or benchmark rate over the remaining maturity of such Collateral Loan and (ii) a Collateral Loan that is a
Step-Up Loan will be treated as having the then current per annum interest rate or spread over the applicable index or benchmark rate. 

(n) For purposes of calculating compliance with any tests under this Agreement (including without limitation the Coverage Tests, the Collateral
Quality Test and the Concentration Limitations), the trade date (and not the settlement date) with respect to any acquisition or disposition of a Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment shall be used to determine whether and when such acquisition or
disposition has occurred. 
 (o) For the avoidance of doubt, a failure to satisfy the Eligibility Criteria upon the acquisition or
origination of a debt obligation or a breach of Section 5.12 shall not occur solely as a result of any property of an Obligor being subject to a Lien imposed by law, such as materialmen’s, warehousemen’s, mechanics’,
carriers’, workmen’s and repairmen’s Liens and other similar Liens, arising by operation of law in the ordinary course of business for sums that are not overdue or are being contested in good faith. 

(p) [reserved]. 
 (q) If
withholding tax is imposed on any Pledged Collateral held by the Borrower, the calculations of the Minimum Weighted Average Spread Test and the Minimum Weighted Average Coupon Test, as applicable, will be made on a net basis after taking into
account such withholding, unless the Obligor is required to make “gross-up” payments to the Borrower that cover the full amount of any such withholding tax on an
after-tax basis pursuant to the underlying instrument with respect thereto.

ARTICLE II 
 THE LOANS 

Section 2.1 The Commitments. On the terms and subject to the applicable conditions hereinafter set forth, including, without
limitation, Article III: 
 (a) each Class A-R Lender severally agrees to make loans to the
Borrower (each, a “Class A-R Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period beginning on and including the Closing Date through the end of the
Class A-R Commitment Period, in each case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding (i) such Class A-R
Lender’s Class A-R Commitment and (ii) as to all Class A-R Lenders, the Total Class A-R Commitment at
such time; 
 (b) the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower (each, a “Swingline Loan” and, together with the
Class A-R Loans, the “Revolving Loans”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period beginning on and including the Closing Date until the date that is five Business Days prior
to the end of the Class A-R Commitment Period (the “Swingline Facility End Date”), in each case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding that will not result in either
(i) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $25,000,000 or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans (including such Swingline Loan and all other then-outstanding Swingline
Loans) exceeding the Total Class A-R Commitment as then in effect; and 
 (c) each Class A-T Lender severally agrees to make loans to the Borrower (each, a “Class A-T Loan”) on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the amount set forth opposite such Class A-T Lender’s name on the signature pages hereto. 

Each such borrowing of a Class A-R Loan on any single day is referred to herein as a
“Class A-R Borrowing”; each such borrowing of a Swingline Loan on any single day is referred to herein as a “Swingline Borrowing”; the borrowing of a Class A-T Loan on the Closing Date is referred to herein as the “Class A-T Borrowing”. Class A-R Borrowings
and Swingline Borrowings are referred to herein collectively as “Revolving Borrowings”. Revolving Borrowings and Class A-T Borrowings are referred to herein collectively as
“Borrowings”. 
 Within such limits and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may
borrow (and re-borrow) Revolving Loans under this Section 2.1 and prepay Revolving Loans under Section 2.7; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to
refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Class A-T Loans once repaid may not be reborrowed. 

  
 - 59 - 








 Each Class A-R Lender severally agrees, on the last
day of the Class A-R Commitment Period, to make a Class A-R Loan (and the Borrower hereby directs that such
Class A-R Loan be made) in an amount equal to its Percentage Share of the Unfunded Amount (less the amount on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account) as of the date such Loan is made (such Loan,
the “Future Funding Reserve Loan”), but only to the extent that its Percentage Share of the Unfunded Amount does not exceed its unfunded Class A-R Commitment. The Borrower shall deposit
the proceeds of such Loans in the Future Funding Reserve Account such that the amounts on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account equal the Unfunded Amount. 

Section 2.2 Making of the Loans. 

(a) If the Borrower desires to make a Borrowing under this Agreement it shall give the Agents a written notice in substantially the form set
forth on Exhibit B hereto (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”), which Notice of Borrowing shall promptly be sent by the Administrative Agent to each applicable Lender, for such Borrowing not later than: 

(i) in the case of a Class A-R Borrowing, 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least
two Business Days prior to the day of the requested Borrowing (such date, the “Class A-R Borrowing Date”); 

(ii) in the case of the Class A-T Borrowing, 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) at
least [three] Business Days prior to the day of the Closing Date, unless such notice is waived in writing by the Class A-T Lenders; and 

(iii) in the case of a Swingline Borrowing, 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the day of the requested Swingline Borrowing.

 Each Notice of Borrowing shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, dated the date the request for the related
Borrowing is being made, signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower) and otherwise be appropriately completed (including an indication by the Borrower of the Class or Classes of
Loans proposed to be borrowed). The proposed Borrowing Date specified in each Notice of Borrowing shall be: 
 (i) in the
case of a Borrowing of Class A-R Loans, a Business Day falling during the Class A-R Commitment Period; 

(ii) in the case of a Borrowing of Swingline Loans, any Business Day prior to the Swingline Facility End Date; and 

(iii) in the case of a Borrowing of Class A-T Loans, the Closing Date. 

On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall request a Borrowing of Class A-T Loans in an amount equal
to $50,000,000. 
 The amount of the Borrowing requested in each Notice of Borrowing (the “Requested Amount”) shall be
equal to (1) in the case of a Borrowing of Class A-R Loans, at least $250,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining unfunded
Class A-R Commitments hereunder), (2) in the case of a Borrowing of Class A-T Loans, the Total Class A-T
Commitment and (3) in the case of a Borrowing of Swingline Loans, at least $250,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the lesser of (A) the remaining unfunded
Class A-R Commitments hereunder and (B) the amount by which the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans outstanding does not exceed $25,000,000). 

  
 - 60 - 








 Each Notice of Borrowing (other than any Notice of Borrowing requesting Swingline Loans and
corresponding Swingline Refinancing Loans) shall be revocable by the Borrower only if notice of such revocation is given to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the date that is one Business Day before the date of the related Borrowing. Notices of Borrowing shall otherwise be irrevocable. 
 (b)
Each Class A-R Lender shall, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Class A-R Borrowing Date, make its Percentage Share of the applicable
Requested Amount available to the Borrower by disbursing such funds in Dollars to the account specified by the Borrower in the Notice of Borrowing; provided that the Swingline Lender shall have no obligation hereunder to make any Swingline
Loan if at the time of such Notice of Borrowing (x) one or more of the Class A-R Lenders is a Defaulting Lender or (y) one or more of the Class A-R
Lenders (whether or not constituting Approved Lenders or Defaulting Lenders) has announced that it is not obligated (or has disputed, in good faith or otherwise, whether it is obligated) to make additional
Class A-R Loans hereunder. 
 (c) Each Notice of Borrowing for a Swingline Loan shall also be
deemed to constitute a Notice of Borrowing for Class A-R Loans (such Loans, “Swingline Refinancing Loans”) in the same Requested Amount, but with a Borrowing Date for Class A-R Loans falling on the day (the “Swingline Refinancing Date”) that is two Business Days after the date on which such Swingline Borrowing is made. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein: 
 (i) each Class A-R Lender hereby agrees to make Class A-R Loans on the relevant Swingline Refinancing Date in an amount equal to its Percentage Share of such Requested Amount and, unless such Lender is the Swingline Lender, shall disburse such funds in
Dollars to the Collateral Agent for the exclusive benefit of the Swingline Lender; and 
 (ii) the Collateral Agent shall
immediately (upon confirmation from the Administrative Agent) apply all amounts received from the Class A-R Lenders under clause (i) above to the repayment of the outstanding Swingline Loans by
paying the same to the Swingline Lender. 
 If the Swingline Lender is also a Class A-R Lender,
it will be deemed to have automatically funded its portion of each Swingline Refinancing Loan on the relevant Swingline Refinancing Date. The obligations of the Class A-R Lenders under clause (c)(i) above
and the obligations of the Collateral Agent under clause (c)(ii) above shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any event or circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or
reduction or termination of the Class A-R Commitments (whether pursuant to Article VI or otherwise), shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever and shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. 
 (d) The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on a date of Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other
Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provision to the contrary contained herein, if any Lender shall have failed to fund its Percentage Share of a previously requested Borrowing
on the applicable date of Borrowing and the Borrower provides a new Notice of Borrowing as a result of such failure to fund, then, in each such case, if necessary to make such Borrowing, the Borrower shall be permitted a single additional Loan of
such Class without regard to the minimum borrowing limit set forth herein. 

  
 - 61 - 








 Section 2.3 Evidence of Indebtedness; Notes. 

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to it
and resulting from the Loans made by such Lender to the Borrower, from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest thereon and paid to it, from time to time hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the
parties hereto intend that the Loans made hereunder shall constitute a “loan” and not a “security” for purposes of Section 8-102(15) of the UCC. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall establish and maintain the Register in accordance with Section 12.6(f). 

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained by the Lenders pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.3 shall, absent
manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Loans therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of
the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that in the event of a conflict between the entries maintained in such accounts and the Register, the Register shall control. 

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans of any Class to the Borrower be evidenced by a Note of such Class. In such event, the Borrower
shall promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and otherwise appropriately completed. Thereafter, to the extent so reflected in
the Register, the Loans of such Class of such Lender evidenced by such Note (with a copy delivered to the Administrative Agent) and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.6) be
represented by one or more Notes of such Class payable to such Lender (or registered assigns pursuant to Section 12.6), except to the extent that such Lender (or registered assignee) subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and
requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.3. At the time of any payment or prepayment in full of the Loans evidenced by any Note, such Note shall be surrendered to the
Administrative Agent promptly (but no more than five Business Days) following such payment or prepayment in full. Any such Note shall be cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any
Note. If requested by any Lender in writing, the Borrower shall obtain a CUSIP or other loan identification number requested by such Lender that is customary for the nature of the Loans made hereunder. 

(e) With respect to any Class A-R Conversion Date (i) if the applicable Class A-R Lender holds a Note evidencing its Class A-R Loans, such Lender shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent to either (x) deliver such Note for
cancellation to the extent that the Class A-R Commitment of such Class A-R Lender is terminated in full or (y) make a notation on Schedule I of such Note
to reduce the principal amount of the Class A-R Loan outstanding thereunder, in either case, in respect of any Converted Class A-R Loans, and simultaneously
with any such delivery for cancellation or notation described in subclauses (x) and (y) above, the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the applicable Lender to execute and deliver a Note evidencing the
Class A-T Loans in respect of the Converted Class A-R Loan that is payable to such Lender, and (ii) if the applicable
Class A-R Lender does not hold a Note evidencing its Class A-R Loans, the Administrative Agent shall make appropriate entries into the accounts to reflect the
conversion of such Class A-R Loan (or portion thereof) into a Class A-T Loan. 

Section 2.4 Maturity of Loans. Each Loan shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable, on the Stated
Maturity. 

  
 - 62 - 








 Section 2.5 Interest Rates. 

(a) The Loans shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, including without limitation, in clause
(i) of the definition of “Applicable Rate” and Sections 11.1 and 11.2. 
 (b) The Class A Loans shall bear interest on
the unpaid principal amount thereof, for each day such Loan is outstanding during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate with respect thereto. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period
on the Quarterly Payment Date immediately following the end of such Interest Period and on the Stated Maturity. 
 (c) The Swingline Loans
shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof, for each day such Swingline Loan is outstanding, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Rate with respect thereto. Accrued interest on each Swingline Loan shall be payable in arrears
on each Quarterly Payment Date. 
 (d) In the event that, and for so long as, an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
outstanding principal amount of the Loans, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, overdue interest in respect of all Loans, shall bear interest for each day at the annual rate of the sum of (i) the Applicable Rate for such Loan for
such day plus (ii) two percent (the “Post-Default Rate” for such Loan). 
 (e) The Administrative Agent shall
determine each interest rate applicable to each Class of Loans hereunder for any Interest Period or portion thereof pursuant to this Section 2.5 and the related definitions; provided that the relevant CP Lender, its Program Manager
or its funding agent, as applicable, shall determine and announce to the Administrative Agent the Cost of Funds Rate for each Loan that is made by a CP Lender and to which the Cost of Funds Rate applies, such determination to be conclusive absent
manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and the participating Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, a statement showing
the quotations and demonstrating the calculations used by the Administrative Agent or the relevant CP Lender, its Program Manager or its funding agent, as applicable, in determining any interest rate pursuant to this Section 2.5. 

(f) The Administrative Agent agrees to use its best efforts to obtain quotations of LIBOR as contemplated by Section 2.5(e) and the
definition of “London Interbank Offered Rate”. If the Administrative Agent does not, or is unable to, obtain a timely quotation, the provisions of Section 11.1 shall apply. 

(g) The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders of any and all LIBOR rate sets on the
date that any such rate set is determined. Each CP Lender, its Program Manager or its funding agent, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent of the Cost of Funds Rate for each Loan that is made by such CP Lender and to which the Cost of
Funds Rate applies on or prior to the related Calculation Date in connection with the provision of its invoice or otherwise upon written request. The Cost of Funds Rate for each CP Lender shall be calculated, for each day during the period between
the date of such notice and the last day of each Interest Period (the “Estimate Period”), on the basis of such CP Lender’s good faith estimate of its funding costs for such Estimate Period, and the amount of interest payable to
such CP Lender in respect of the 

  
 - 63 - 








 
following Interest Period shall be increased by the amount, if any, by which interest at the actual Cost of Funds Rate for such CP Lender for such Estimate Period exceeds the amount estimated or
shall be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the amount of interest at the estimated Cost of Funds Rate for such Estimate Period exceeds the amount of interest accrued at the actual Cost of Funds Rate. However, on the Stated Maturity, any such
increase or decrease that would be due pursuant to the preceding sentence shall instead be settled and paid on the Stated Maturity. Each CP Lender, its Program Manager or its funding agent, as applicable, shall supply a reconciliation of such
amounts as provided in this Section 2.5(g) for each such period to the Administrative Agent and, absent manifest error, such reconciliation shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. The interest rate payable to a CP Lender shall
reflect proportionately the different sources of funding used during each Interest Period by such CP Lender to finance its outstanding Loans. 

Section 2.6 Commitment Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fees Payable. The Borrower shall, subject to Section 11.5(b)(ii)(y), pay to the
Class A-R Lenders pursuant to Section 6.4 or 9.1, as applicable, ratably in proportion to their respective Percentage Shares of the Undrawn Commitment (provided that if the Class A-R Commitment of any Class A-R Lender is reduced as the result of a Bail-In Action, such Lender’s Percentage
Share of the Undrawn Commitment shall be calculated based on its Class A-R Commitment as so reduced), a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) accruing for each day during each Interest
Period equal to the product of the Commitment Fee Rate and the undrawn amount of the Total Class A-R Commitment as of the end of such day. 

The Commitment Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the Quarterly Payment Date immediately following each Interest Period for which
such fees accrue as provided in the Priority of Payments and shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10; provided that the amount of Commitment Fees payable on any Quarterly Payment Date shall be reduced to the
extent already paid during the related Interest Period in connection with an optional prepayment under Section 2.7(c). 
 (b) Fees Non-Refundable. All fees set forth in this Section 2.6 shall be deemed to have been earned on the date such payment is due in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and shall be non-refundable. The obligation of the Borrower to pay such fees in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of the Class A-R Lenders regardless of whether any Class A-R Loans are actually made. 

Section 2.7 Reduction of Commitments; Prepayments; Conversions. 

(a) Reduction and Termination. 

(i) The Undrawn Commitment of each Class A-R Lender shall be automatically reduced
to zero at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the last day of the Class A-R Commitment Period. Upon the making of the Class A-T Loans on the Closing Date, the Class A-T Lenders shall have no obligation to make any additional Class A-T Loans hereunder. 

(ii) The Borrower shall have the right at any time to permanently reduce the Undrawn Commitment under the Class A-R Loans by an amount specified by the Borrower (such amount, the “Undrawn Commitment Reduction Amount”) upon not less than five Business Days’ (or such shorter period agreed to by
the Administrative Agent) prior written notice in the form of Exhibit H to the Lenders, DBRS and the Administrative Agent of any such reduction, which notice shall only be effective upon receipt and shall specify the effective date of such
reduction, 

  
 - 64 - 








 
whereupon the Undrawn Commitment under the Class A-R Loans shall be reduced by the Undrawn Commitment Reduction Amount on the effective date set forth
in such notice of reduction. Such notice of reduction shall be effective only upon receipt and shall permanently reduce the Class A-R Commitments of each
Class A-R Lender on the date specified in such notice and shall specify the amount of any such reduction; provided that no such reduction will reduce the Total
Class A-R Commitment below the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A-R Loans at such time. 

(iii) The Total Class A-R Commitment (and the
Class A-R Commitment of each Class A-R Lender), once reduced, may not be increased. 

(iv) The Borrower will not reduce the Undrawn Commitment of the Class A-R Loans
if, after giving effect to such reduction, it would result in a Commitment Shortfall. 
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments on Quarterly Payment
Dates. If any of the Coverage Tests are not satisfied as of the related Calculation Date, the Loans will be prepaid in whole or in part on the applicable Quarterly Payment Date in accordance with Sections 9.1(a)(i)(F) and 9.1(a)(i)(H) or
9.1(a)(ii)(A); provided that no such prepayment of the Class A-R Loans during the Class A-R Commitment Period will result in a permanent reduction of
the Class A-R Commitments. 
 (c) Optional Prepayments. Subject to the requirement that
after giving effect to the proposed prepayment (x) there will be sufficient funds in the Collection Account to make all payments described in clauses (A) through (J) of Section 9.1(a)(i) on the next Quarterly Payment Date (or if such
prepayment is made on a Quarterly Payment Date, on such Quarterly Payment Date) and (y) there is no Commitment Shortfall at any time after the Swingline Loans have been repaid in full and all interest and other amounts due in respect thereof
have been paid in full, the Borrower may (i) at any time after the Class A-R Commitment Period, upon at least five Business Days’ notice (which notice shall contain a certificate of an
Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying as to the satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.7(c) with respect to such proposed prepayment) to the Agents, the Lenders and DBRS, prepay all or any portion of the principal
balance of the Class A Loans then outstanding, without premium or penalty (other than as set forth in Section 2.9), on any Business Day by paying to the Collateral Agent for the account of the Lenders the principal amount to be prepaid
together with accrued and unpaid interest and Commitment Fees, if applicable, thereon to and including the date of prepayment and, if such prepayment occurs on a day that is not a Quarterly Payment Date, any amount due pursuant to Section 2.9;
provided that (x) any prepayments of Class A Loans made pursuant to this clause (i) shall result in the permanent reduction of the Class A-R Commitments and the Class A-T Commitments on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and (y) such prepayment shall be allocated to each Class A Lender
(A) with respect to principal repayment, in accordance with the Principal Allocation Formula and (B) with respect to interest and Commitment Fees, ratably based on the aggregate amounts thereof; and (ii) at any time during the Class A-R Commitment Period, if each Coverage Test is in compliance after giving effect thereto, on any Business Day (and, if such day is not a Quarterly Payment Date, upon at least five Business Days’
notice to the Agents) prepay all or any portion of the Class A-R Loans then outstanding by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest and Commitment Fees, if applicable,
thereon to the date of prepayment and any amounts due pursuant to Section 2.9; provided that any prepayments of the Class A-R Loans made pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not result in
any reduction in the Class A-R Commitments at such time and such prepaid amounts under the Class A-R Loans may be
re-borrowed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 All prepayments of Loans pursuant to
this Section 2.7(c) shall be applied in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.7(c) and shall not be subject to the Priority of Payments. 

  
 - 65 -

recognized firms of independent certified public accountants for purposes of performing agreed-upon procedures required by this Agreement, which may be the firm of independent certified public accountants that performs accounting services for the

behalf of the Borrower) shall promptly appoint a successor thereto that shall also be a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants, which may be a firm of independent certified public accountants that performs
accounting services for the Borrower or the Collateral Manager. If the Borrower shall fail to appoint a successor to a firm of independent certified public accountants which has resigned or has been removed within 30 days after such resignation
or removal (as applicable), the Borrower shall promptly notify the Agents and the Collateral Manager of such failure in writing. If the Borrower shall not have appointed a successor within ten days thereafter, the Collateral Manager shall appoint a
successor firm of independent certified public accountants of nationally recognized reputation. The fees of such firm of independent certified public accountants and its successor shall be payable by the Borrower as Administrative Expenses in
accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement. In the event such firm requires the Collateral Agent and/or the Collateral Administrator to agree (whether in writing or otherwise) to the procedures performed by such firm,

similar import requested by such accountants, which may include among other things, (i) acknowledgement that the Borrower has agreed that the procedures to be performed by such accountants are sufficient for the Borrower’s purposes,
(ii) releases by the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Administrator, as applicable (on behalf of itself and the Lenders and Administrative Agent) of claims against the firm and acknowledgement of other limitations of liability in favor of the
firm and (iii) restrictions or prohibitions on the disclosure of information or documents provided to it by such firm (including to the Lenders and Administrative Agent). It is understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent and the Collateral
Administrator will deliver such letters of agreement and similar documents in conclusive reliance on the foregoing direction of the Borrower. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Collateral Administrator shall have any responsibility to the Borrower
or any Secured Party hereunder to make any inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation, liability or responsibility in respect of, the terms of any engagement of any such firm, or the validity or correctness of such procedures or
content of such letter (including without limitation with respect to the sufficiency thereof for any purpose), any report or instruction (or other information or documents) prepared or delivered by any such accountants pursuant to any such
engagement. In no event shall the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Administrator be required to execute any agreement in respect of the accountants that it reasonably determines adversely affects it. For the avoidance of doubt, any costs, fees or
expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent and/or the Collateral Administrator in connection with this Section 5.36(a) shall be payable by the Borrower as Administrative Expenses in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this
Agreement.

public accountants appointed pursuant to clause (a) above for each Payment Date Report received since the last statement (i) indicating that the calculations within those Payment Date Reports have been recalculated and compared to the
information provided by the Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and (ii) listing the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral Loans securing the Loans as of the immediately preceding Measurement Dates;
provided that in the event of a conflict between such firm of independent certified public accountants and the Borrower with respect to any matter in this Section 5.36, the determination by such firm of independent public accountants
shall be conclusive; provided further that, if there is any inconsistency between the calculations of the Borrower and the calculations of the firm of independent certified public accountants, the Borrower shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and describe such inconsistency in reasonable detail. In the event such independent certified public accountants require the Custodian, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral
Agent to agree to the procedures to be performed by such firm in any of the reports required to be prepared pursuant to this Section 5.36(b), the Borrower shall direct the Custodian, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the
Collateral Agent in writing to so agree. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Custodian, Administrative Agent, the Collateral Administrator or Collateral Agent fail within 75 days following the end of each fiscal year of the
Borrower to execute any documentation required by the independent certified public accountants selected by the Borrower prior to the delivery of any report contemplated by this Section 5.36(b), then the Borrower shall have no obligation to
furnish any report covering such fiscal year pursuant to this Section 5.36(b). In no event shall the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Agent be required to execute any agreement in respect of the accounts that it
reasonably determines adversely affects it.

contrary position; provided that for so long as the Borrower is treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an entity that is disregarded as separate from its sole member, any Loans held by such sole member will be disregarded for such
purposes.

shall timely provide the Borrower and any Agent with two copies of duly executed IRS Forms W-9 (or any applicable successor form) certifying that such member is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

 (c) The Borrower shall, whenever relevant, use commercially reasonable efforts to elect the application of Section 6226 of the Code.

 (d) The Borrower shall take no action, and the LLC Agreement provides that the Borrrower shall neither permit nor recognize any action,
that would cause the Borrower to be treated as other than an entity that is disregarded as separate from its sole beneficial owner or a partnership (other than a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation) for U.S. federal, and to the
extent applicable, state and local, income tax purposes. 
 (e) The Borrower and each member of the Borrower will comply at all times with
the provisions of the LLC Agreement relating to taxes.

with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is, or whose government is, the subject of Sanctions, or (ii) in any other manner that would result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any
Person participating in the Loans or the membership interests in the Borrower whether as underwriter, advisor, investor, or otherwise). Neither the Borrower nor any of its subsidiaries will enter into any transaction with any Person on the Specially
Designated Nationals List of OFAC or in any of the countries described in clause (ii) of Section 4.21.

permitted by the Securitisation Regulations and with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Affected Lender and notice to DBRS.

shall not (i) engage in or conspire to engage in any transaction, conduct, or activity that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or otherwise violates any Anti-Terrorism Law, Anti-Corruption Law or Sanctions, (ii) cause or
permit any of the funds that are used to repay the Obligations to be derived, directly or indirectly, from any activity with the result that any party to this Agreement would be in violation of any applicable Anti-Terrorism Laws, Anti-Corruption
Laws, or Sanctions or (iii) use any part of the proceeds of the Loans, directly or knowingly indirectly, for any conduct that would cause the representations and warranties in Sections 4.21 and 4.24 to be untrue as if made on the date
any such conduct occurs.

or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, any term or provision of any Collateral Loan or other loan or security constituting any Collateral, (iii) any release of any collateral for, or guarantor of or other credit support provider for,

and all other amounts whatsoever payable by the Borrower hereunder (including any amounts payable under Section 2.9) to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such amounts shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand,

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Majority Lenders or the Collateral Agent (acting at the
direction of the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders) will have the right to take any other remedies set forth in Section 6.3(b) below or other remedies permitted by law. 

Section 6.3 Additional Collateral Provisions. 

(a) Release of Security Interest. If and only if all Obligations under the Loans have been paid in full and all Commitments have been
terminated, the Secured Parties shall, at the expense of the Borrower, promptly execute, deliver and file or authorize for filing such instruments as the Borrower shall reasonably request in order to reassign, release or terminate the Secured
Parties’ security interest in the Collateral. The Secured Parties acknowledge and agree that upon the sale, substitution or disposition of any Collateral by the Borrower in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the date
of any such sale, substitution or other disposition, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to and hereby does terminate and release the Secured Parties’ security
interest in such Collateral and the Secured Parties shall, at the expense of the Borrower, execute, deliver and file or authorize for filing such instrument as the Borrower shall reasonably request to reflect or evidence such termination. Any and
all actions under this Article VI in respect of the Collateral shall be without any recourse to, or representation or warranty by any Secured Party and shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower. 

(b) Additional Rights and Remedies. The Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of the other Secured Parties), acting at the
direction of the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent, shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable law. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent or its designees shall, at the direction of the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including the UCC) and notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary,
(i) instruct the Borrower to deliver any or all of the Collateral, the Related Contracts and any other documents relating to the Collateral to the Collateral Agent or its designees and otherwise give all instructions for the Borrower regarding
the Collateral; (ii) if the Loans have been accelerated in accordance with this Agreement, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, all without judicial process or proceedings; (iii) take control of the proceeds of any such Collateral;
(iv) subject to the provisions of the applicable Related Contracts, exercise any consensual or voting rights in respect of the Collateral; (v) release, make extensions, discharges, exchanges or substitutions for, or surrender all or any
part of the Collateral; (vi) enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral; (vii) institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, any of the Collateral;
(viii) require that the Borrower immediately take all actions necessary to cause the liquidation of the Collateral in order to pay all amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations, in accordance


  
 - 93 - 








 
with the terms of the Related Contracts; (ix) redeem or withdraw or cause the Borrower to redeem or withdraw any asset of the Borrower to pay amounts due and payable in respect of the
Obligations; (x) subject to Section 12.16, make copies of or, if necessary, remove from the Borrower’s and its agents’ place of business all books, records and documents relating to the Collateral; and (xi) endorse the name
of the Borrower upon any items of payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim in bankruptcy against an account debtor. The Collateral Agent shall provide prompt written notice of any liquidation of the Collateral to DBRS. 

The Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or
remedy available to it under this Agreement unless and until (and to the extent) at the express direction of the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such
action at the direction of the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Agent, (x) shall be in violation of any applicable
law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Agent to liability hereunder (unless it has been provided with an indemnity agreement (including the indemnity provisions contained herein and in the other
Loan Documents) which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto). 
 The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Lenders or acting directly or through the Administrative Agent) or the Majority Lenders, it shall execute
all documents and agreements which are necessary or appropriate to have the Collateral assigned to the Collateral Agent or its designee. For purposes of taking the actions described in clauses (i) through (xi) of this Section 6.3(b) the
Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment being coupled with an interest and is irrevocable while any of the
Obligations remain unpaid and which can be exercised only if such Event of Default is continuing), with power of substitution, in the name of the Collateral Agent or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and, except as permitted by applicable law, without notice to the Borrower. 

All documented sums paid or advanced by the Collateral Agent in connection with the foregoing and all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including documented and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, agents and experts) incurred in connection therewith, together with
interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate for the Loans from the date of demand of repayment by the Collateral Agent until repaid in full, shall be paid by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent from time to time on demand in accordance with the
Priority of Payments and shall constitute and become a part of the Obligations secured hereby. 
 Without the prior written consent of the
Majority Lenders, credit bidding by any Lender or any other Person in connection with any foreclosure sale hereunder shall not be permitted. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VI, in connection with the sale of the Collateral following an acceleration of the
Obligations, the Collateral Manager (or any of its Affiliates) shall have the right (which right, for avoidance of doubt, shall be irrevocably forfeited if not exercised within the specified timeframe) to purchase all of the Collateral Loans in the
Collateral within two Business Days of its receipt of notice of such acceleration by paying to the Collateral Agent in immediately available funds, an amount equal to all outstanding Obligations and, without duplication, all unpaid Administrative
Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing purchase rights, if the Collateral Agent or the Majority Lenders propose to sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, the Collateral Manager (or any of its
Affiliates) and the Lenders shall have the right to offer bids to acquire all or any portion of the Collateral sold at such sale. To the extent the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Majority Lenders) elects to sell any or all Collateral
Loans at such public or private sale, such Collateral Loans or any parcel thereof shall be sold to the party offering the highest bid in immediately available funds. 

  
 - 94 - 








 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default of the type specified in
Section 6.1(a), (f), (g), (h), (k), (l), (m) and (n) shall have occurred and be continuing, no Lender shall direct the Collateral Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent shall retain the Collateral
securing the Loans intact (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required by Section 10.1), collect and cause the collection of the proceeds thereof and make and apply all payments and deposits and maintain all accounts in respect of the
Collateral and the Loans in accordance with the Priority of Payments, unless (i) the Collateral Agent determines at the written request of the Majority Lenders that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation of all or any portion of the
Collateral (after deducting the reasonable expenses of such sale or liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full the amounts then due through clause (i) of Section 6.4, or (ii) all Lenders consent to such liquidation of the
Collateral. 
 In determining whether the condition specified in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph exists, the Collateral Agent
shall use reasonable efforts to obtain bid prices with respect to each Collateral Loan or group of Collateral Loans from two nationally recognized dealers with substantial experience buying and selling such collateral and shall compute the
anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of the lower of such bid prices for each such Collateral Loan or group of Collateral Loans. In the event that the Collateral Agent is only able to obtain bid prices with respect to the
applicable Collateral Loans from one nationally recognized dealer at the time of making a market in such assets, the Collateral Agent shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of such one bid price for such
Collateral Loans or group of Collateral Loans. In addition, for the purposes of obtaining bid prices as provided for in this Section 6.3(b) and/or determining issues relating to the execution of a sale or liquidation of the Collateral Loans and
the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof in connection with a determination whether the condition specified in the preceding paragraph exists, the Collateral Agent may retain and rely on an opinion or advice of an independent investment
banking firm of national reputation or other appropriate advisors (the reasonable cost of which shall be payable as an Administrative Expense). 

(c) Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of the Agents and the other Secured Parties, or any of them, as provided for in
this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this
Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Agents or any other Secured Party of any one or more of such rights, powers,
or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by such Persons of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. 

(d) Related Contracts.

occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it shall (x) upon the written request of either Agent, promptly forward to such Agent all information and notices which it receives under or in connection with the Related Contracts
relating to the Collateral, subject to applicable confidentiality requirements, and (y) upon the written request of either Agent, act and refrain from acting in respect of any request, act, decision or vote under or in connection with the

Borrower’s possession, it will hold all Related Contracts relating to the Collateral for the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, and upon request of either Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default or as otherwise provided herein, promptly deliver the same to the Collateral Agent or its designee. 
 (e)
Borrower Remains Liable. 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Borrower shall remain
liable under the contracts and agreements included in and relating to the Collateral (including the Related Contracts) to the extent set forth therein, and shall perform all of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements to the
same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed and (y) the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its rights hereunder shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under any such contracts or agreements included
in the Collateral. 
 (ii) No obligation or liability of the Borrower is intended to be assumed by either Agent or any other
Secured Party under or as a result of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including under any Related Contract or any other agreement or document that relates to Collateral and, to the
maximum extent permitted under provisions of law, the Agents and the other Secured Parties expressly disclaim any such assumption. 
 (f)

such UCC-1 financing statements, continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable or desirable to secure the
rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder and to: 
 (i) grant security more effectively on all or any portion of the
Collateral; 
 (ii) maintain, preserve and perfect any grant of security made or to be made by this Agreement including,
without limitation, the first priority nature of the lien or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

all or any part of the Collateral, except to the extent such taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently concluded; provided that any reserve or other appropriate provision as shall be

 The Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent as its agent and
attorney in fact to prepare and file any UCC-1 financing statement (which may describe the collateral as “all assets”), continuation statement and all other instruments, and take all other actions,
required pursuant to this Section 6.3. Such authorization shall not impose upon the Collateral Agent, or release or diminish, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 6.3. The Borrower further authorizes the Administrative
Agent’s United States counsel to file any UCC-1 or UCC-3 financing statements that may be required by the Agents in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby.

waiver shall be permanent and irrevocable, to the payment to the Collateral Manager of all due and unpaid Collateral Management Fees in an amount not to exceed the accrued Collateral Management Fees for one Due Period;

If on any date that payments are made pursuant to this Section 6.4 the amount available to be paid pursuant to any of the foregoing
clauses (a) through (j) is insufficient to make the full amount of the disbursements required pursuant to any such clause, such payments will be applied in the order and according to the priority set forth in clauses (a) through (j) above
and (including as provided in subclauses “first”, “second” and “third” of clause (a) above, and subclauses “first” and “second” of clauses (g) and (h) above) ratably in accordance with the
respective amounts owing under any such clause to the extent funds are available therefor. 
 Section 6.5 Capital

such Collateral Loan’s valuation pursuant to the definition of Principal Collateralization Amount) to the Borrower for the purpose of curing any Event of Default (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no such contribution shall cure any Event of
Default without the consent of the Majority Lenders), enabling the acquisition or sale of any Collateral Loan, satisfying any Eligibility Criteria or satisfying or improving any Coverage Test or Collateral Quality Test. Unless otherwise directed by
the Borrower by prior or contemporaneous written notice to the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, all Cash contributed to the Borrower shall be treated as Principal Proceeds except to the extent that such Cash is

ARTICLE VII 
 THE AGENTS 

Section 7.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as
agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Only the Agents (and
not one or more 

  
 - 98 - 








 
of the Lenders) shall have the authority to deal directly with the Borrower under this Agreement and each Lender acknowledges that all notices, demands or requests from such Lender to the
Borrower must be forwarded to the applicable Agent for delivery to the Borrower. Each Lender acknowledges that the Borrower has no obligation to act or refrain from acting on instructions or demands of one or more Lenders absent written instructions
from an Agent in accordance with its rights and authority hereunder. 
 Section 7.2 Agents and Affiliates. The Agents shall
each have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as the Lenders and may each exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Agents and their respective affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not an Agent hereunder, and the term “Lender” and “Lenders” may include Natixis, U.S. Bank and/or any
Affiliate of Natixis or U.S. Bank in its individual capacity. The provisions in this Article VII with respect to the Agents shall apply only to the Agents acting in their capacities as such hereunder and not as Lenders. 

Section 7.3 Actions by Agent. The obligations of the Agents hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Neither Agent
shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of any Agent
shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or shall otherwise exist against any Agent. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders (other than Sections 7.1 and 7.8, which are also for
the benefit of the Borrower). In performing its functions and duties solely under this Agreement, each Agent shall act solely as the agent of the Lenders (other than with respect to Section 12.6(f)) and does not assume, nor shall be deemed to
have assumed, any obligation or relationship of trust with or for the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in
Article VI. 
 Section 7.4 Delegation of Duties; Consultation with Experts. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under
this Agreement by or through its subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to
advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the actions or omissions of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 Section 7.5 Limitation of Liability of Agents. 

(a) No Agent nor any of its respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken
by it in connection herewith (x) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or the Administrative Agent), made in accordance with this Agreement or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence, fraud, reckless disregard,
bad faith, criminal conduct or willful misconduct. No Agent nor any of its respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any Borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in
Article III, except receipt of items required to be delivered to such Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection
herewith. No Agent shall incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex, facsimile, electronic transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be
genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected 

  
 - 99 - 








 
in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith in accordance with a request of the
Majority Lenders (or the Administrative Agent), made in accordance with this Agreement and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. Under no circumstances shall the Agents be deemed
liable for any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential damages (including lost profits or diminution in value) even if such Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of the form of action. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Agent may conclusively rely without inquiry on any consent or request as being conclusive evidence of the authority of such party to make such consent or request and that such consent or request was
made in accordance with this Agreement. 
 (b) The following additional provisions apply with respect to the Collateral Agent: 

(i) the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default until an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice (which notice shall refer to this Agreement and state that such notice is a notice of Default or Event of Default) thereof from the Borrower, the
Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any other Person; 
 (ii) no provision of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated
hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it; provided, however, that the reasonable and documented costs
of performing its ordinary services under this Agreement shall not be deemed a “financial liability” for purposes hereof; 

(iii) if, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses
of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall request written instructions from the Majority Lenders) as to the course of action desired. If the Collateral Agent
does not receive such instructions within five Business Days after its request therefor, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance
with instructions received after such five Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions; 

(iv) the Collateral Agent shall be under no liability for interest on any funds received by it hereunder; 

(v) the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for delays or failures in the performance of its obligations
hereunder arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control (such acts include but are not limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war and interruptions, losses or malfunctions of utilities,
computer (hardware or software) or communications services); it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon
as reasonably practicable under the circumstances; and 
 (vi) without prejudice to the Collateral Agent’s duties under
Article VI or any other provision of any Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to take any action to collect from any Obligor any amount payable by such Obligor on the Collateral Loans or any other Collateral under any
circumstances, including if payment is refused after due demand. 

  
 - 100 - 








 (c) The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and
responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for delays
or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but shall not be limited to acts of god, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire,
communication line failures, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters. 
 (d) In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for the
selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Borrower to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral Agent in connection with the investment of funds in or from any account set forth
herein. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2(c) or Section 8.3, in the absence of a Borrower Order or, after an Event of Default, a direction from the Administrative Agent, all funds in any account held under this Agreement shall be
held uninvested. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to release U.S. Bank from any liability it may have as an obligor under any Eligible Investment. 

(e) The Collateral Agent and its Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral
Agent’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Eligible Investments,
(ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Eligible Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this
Agreement. 
 (f) Without limiting the generality of any terms of this Section 7.5, the Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any
failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager or the Borrower to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Agent, or otherwise on the part of any
such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Agent’s part of any of its duties hereunder that is
caused by or results from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by it, or other failure on the part of any such other party to comply with the terms hereof. 

(g) The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to (i) confirm or verify whether the conditions to the delivery of Collateral
have been satisfied or to determine whether (A) a loan is a Collateral Loan or meets the criteria in the definition thereof or is otherwise eligible for purchase hereunder, (B) an investment is an Eligible Investment or meets the criteria
in the definition thereof or is otherwise eligible for purchase hereunder or (ii) evaluate the sufficiency of the documents or instruments delivered to it by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with the grant by the Borrower to the
Collateral Agent of any item constituting the Collateral or otherwise, or in that regard to examine any underlying documents, in order to determine compliance with the applicable requirements of and restrictions on transfer of a Collateral Loan or
Eligible Investment. 
 (h) In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable
to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (collectively, “Applicable Laws”), the Collateral Agent is required to obtain, verify and record certain information
relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Collateral Agent. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Collateral 

  
 - 101 - 








 
Agent upon its request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Collateral Agent to comply with Applicable Laws.
The Collateral Agent may from time to time establish any additional accounts deemed necessary or desirable for convenience in administering the Collateral so long as each such account is at all times subject to a valid and perfected first priority
lien in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 (i) The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation
to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or any other Loan Document at the request or direction of the Majority Lenders or Administrative Agent unless it shall have been provided indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its attorneys, agents and experts), and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with or in performing such request or direction. No provision of this Agreement
or any Loan Document shall otherwise be construed to require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or to take any action that could in its judgment cause it to incur any cost, expenses or liability unless it is provided an indemnity
reasonably acceptable to it against any such expenditure, risk, costs, expense or liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power,
right or remedy available to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless and until directed by the Majority Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on their behalf). 

(j) The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good
faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard or grossly negligent performance or omission of its
duties. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates) and independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the actions of omissions of the Administrative
Agent (including without limitation concerning the application of funds), or under any duty to monitor or investigate compliance on the part of the Administrative agent with the terms or requirements of this Agreement, any Loan Document or any
related document, or their duties thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to assume the due authority of any signatory and genuineness of any signature appearing on any instrument or document it may receive hereunder. 

(k) The delivery of reports, and other documents and information to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document is for
informational purposes only and the Collateral Agent’s receipt of such documents and information shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein. The Collateral
Agent is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. Whether or not expressly stated in such Loan Documents, in performing (or refraining from acting) thereunder, the Collateral Agent shall
have all of the rights, benefits, protections and indemnities which are afforded to it in this Agreement. 
 (l) Except as expressly provided
herein or in any other Loan Document, nothing herein shall be construed to impose an obligation on the part of the Collateral Agent to recalculate, evaluate or verify any report, certificate or information received by it from the Borrower,
Collateral Manager, Lender or Administrative Agent or to otherwise monitor the activities of the Borrower or Collateral Manager. 

  
 - 102 - 








 (m) In the event that the Collateral Agent is also acting in the capacity of Custodian, paying
agent, Securities Intermediary hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article VII shall also be afforded to U.S. Bank acting in such capacities.

 (n) The Collateral Agent shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to an Administrative Officer of
the Collateral Agent responsible for the administration of this Agreement, or unless and to the extent written notice of such matter is received by the Collateral Agent at its address in accordance with Section 12.1 and such notice references
this Agreement or the Borrower. 
 (o) The Collateral Agent shall in no event have any liability for the actions or omissions of the
Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager or any other Person, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in any duty performed by it that results from or is caused by inaccurate, untimely or incomplete
information or data received by it from the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager or any other Person except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused by the Collateral Agent’s own bad faith,
willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for failing to perform or delay in performing its specified duties hereunder which results from or is caused by a failure or delay on the part of
the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager or another Person in furnishing necessary, timely and accurate information to the Collateral Agent provided that such information is required to be delivered to the
Collateral Agent hereunder or is requested by the Collateral Agent from such Person. 
 (p) For the avoidance of doubt, none of the
Collateral Agent, the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary shall be charged with knowledge of the Securitisation Regulations, nor will the Collateral Agent, the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or the
Securities Intermediary be responsible for monitoring, confirming or enforcing any of the provisions of the Securitisation Regulations applicable to the transaction, and none of the Collateral Agent, the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or
the Securities Intermediary will be liable to any party for violation of such rules now or hereinafter in effect. 
 (q) None of the
Collateral Agent, the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or the Securities Intermediary shall be under any obligation to (i) monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of LIBOR, any replacement index (or other applicable
interest rate), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of (except as expressly provided herein), any LIBOR Transition Event or LIBOR Replacement Date, any amendment or change
required to be made to the applicable interest rate, (ii) select, determine or designate LIBOR, Alternate Base Rate, Designated Base Rate, or Fallback Rate, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the
designation of such a rate have been satisfied, (iii) select, determine or designate any adjustment margin or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) determine whether or what amendments are necessary or advisable, if
any, in connection with any of the foregoing. 
 (r) None of the Collateral Agent, the Custodian, the Collateral Administrator or the
Securities Intermediary shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Agreement as a result of the unavailability of LIBOR, Alternate Base Rate, Designated Base Rate, or Fallback Rate
(or other applicable interest rate) and absence of a designated replacement Interest Rate, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party, including without limitation the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. 

  
 - 103 - 








 Section 7.6 Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with the
percentage of the Total Class A Commitment represented by such Lender’s Commitment, indemnify the Agents, their respective affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower as may be
required under this Agreement) against any cost, expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such
indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents (including any enforcement by any Agent of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder or
thereunder and, in each case, whether or not a claim, demand or action was brought by or involving the Borrower, any Lender or any third party. 

Section 7.7 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other
Lender or any of their respective affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently
and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or their respective affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any
action under this Agreement or in connection therewith. The Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates other than in connection with their acting as Agents under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 7.8 Successor Agent. 

(a) An Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Borrower, the Collateral
Manager and DBRS; provided that any such resignation by an Agent shall not be effective until a successor agent shall have been appointed and approved in accordance with this Section 7.8.Upon receipt of any such notice, the Majority
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders, shall have been
approved by the Borrower, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the notice of resignation or removal thereof, then the retiring Agent may (i) petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Agent or
(ii) appoint a successor Agent, in each case, which such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as such Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, and the successor Agent shall provide written notice of such appointment to the Lenders, the Collateral Manager and DBRS. In addition, upon the affirmative vote of the Majority Lenders
exercising good faith that an Agent has acted with gross negligence or committed an act of willful misconduct or failed to act as required due to gross negligence or willful misconduct in its capacity as agent for the Lenders hereunder, the Majority
Lenders may immediately remove such Agent; provided that (i) a Lender hereunder agrees to serve as Agent and (ii) the Borrower has consented to such Lender serving as Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) until a successor Agent shall be appointed pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.8. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this 

  
 - 104 - 








 
Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent. With respect to any Person (i) into which an Agent may be merged or
consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which an Agent shall be a party or (iii) with respect to the Collateral Agent that may succeed to the corporate trust business and assets of the Collateral Agent
substantially as a whole, shall be the successor to such Agent under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement. 

(b) Any resignation or removal of Natixis as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall also constitute the resignation
or removal of Bleachers Finance 1 Limited as the Swingline Lender hereunder, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment and notice to DBRS of the same, become (or
an Affiliate of such successor Administrative Agent shall become) the successor Swingline Lender for all purposes hereunder; provided that such successor Swingline Lender is an Approved Lender. In such event (i) the Borrower shall prepay
any outstanding Swingline Loans made by the retiring or removed Swingline Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the retiring or removed Swingline Lender shall surrender any Note held by it evidencing its Swingline Loan to the successor
Administrative Agent for cancellation and (iii) the Borrower shall, if so requested by the successor Swingline Lender, promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such
Lender and its registered assigns) and otherwise appropriately completed. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

ACCOUNTS AND COLLATERAL 

Section 8.1 Collection of Money. 

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent may demand payment or delivery of, and shall receive and collect,
directly and without intervention or assistance of any fiscal agent or other intermediary, all Money and other property payable to or receivable by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement (other than amounts specifically required herein to
be paid to the Administrative Agent), including, but not limited to, all payments or any other amounts due on the Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Collateral Loans and Eligible
Investments. The Collateral Agent shall segregate and hold all such Money and property received by it from the Borrower for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall apply it as provided in this Agreement. 

(b) All payments on the Collateral Loans and other Collateral shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent (at a bank in the United States),
will be held in the Collection Account, and will be divided into Interest Proceeds (including Fee Proceeds) and Principal Proceeds. Such amounts shall be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of this Agreement. 

(c) The Borrower will provide the Collateral Agent with a certified copy of each agreement under which the Borrower sells a Participation
Interest in any Collateral Loan pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or sells all or any part of a Collateral Loan by assignment pursuant to Section 10.1. Upon receipt of written certification by the Borrower (which may take the form of standing
instructions with respect to a specified portion of all payments received on designated Collateral Loans) to the effect that specified amounts received by the Collateral Agent from an Obligor do not constitute Collections subject to this Agreement
but are required by the terms of such a participation or assignment agreement to be paid by the Borrower to the purchaser of a Participation Interest sold by the Borrower or assignee of the Borrower, as the case may be, the Collateral Agent will
disburse such amounts, as directed in such certificate.

 (d) The parties to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement intend that each of the
Covered Accounts shall be securities accounts of Borrower subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent. The Custodian shall comply with entitlement orders originated by the Collateral Agent without the further consent of any other person or entity.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Collateral Agent notifies the Custodian that the Collateral Agent shall exercise exclusive control over the Covered Accounts, the Custodian shall cease complying with entitlement orders or
other directions relating to the Covered Accounts (or any financial assets or other funds or property credited to or held, deposited, or carried in the Covered Accounts) originated by the Borrower or any other Person or entity other than the
Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Collateral Agent shall not seek to exercise exclusive control over the Covered Accounts at any time until it has been directed to do so by the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders,
and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not seek to direct the Collateral Agent to exercise exclusive control over the Covered Account at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default. The immediately
preceding sentence is an agreement as between the Collateral Agent and the Borrower alone and does not constitute an agreement of the Custodian. 

The Custodian shall agree, and U.S. Bank as Custodian hereby agrees, with the Collateral Agent that (i) each of the Covered Accounts shall
be securities accounts of the Borrower subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent, (ii) all property credited to the Covered Accounts shall be treated as a “financial asset” for purposes of the UCC, (iii) the Custodian shall
treat the Collateral Agent as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each financial asset credited to the Covered Accounts subject to the rights of the Borrower specified herein, (iv) the Custodian shall not agree with any person or
entity other than the Collateral Agent to comply with entitlement orders originated by any person or entity other than the Collateral Agent, (v) the Covered Accounts and all property credited to the Covered Accounts shall not be subject to any
lien, security interest, right of set-off, or encumbrance in favor of the Custodian or any person or entity claiming through the Custodian (other than the Collateral Agent) except for the right to debit for
any item returned by reason of non-sufficient funds, (vi) the State of New York shall be the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction of the Custodian for purposes of the UCC, and (vii) any
agreement between the Custodian and the Collateral Agent with respect to the Covered Accounts shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Notwithstanding any term hereof or elsewhere to the contrary, it is hereby expressly acknowledged
that (a) interests in bank loans or participations (collectively, “Loan Assets”) may be acquired and delivered by the Borrower to the Securities Intermediary from time to time which are not evidenced by, or accompanied by delivery of,
a security (as that term is defined in UCC Section 8-102) or an instrument (as that term is defined in Section 9-102(a)(47) of the UCC), and may be evidenced
solely by delivery to the Securities Intermediary of a facsimile copy of an assignment agreement (“Loan Assignment Agreement”) in favor of the Borrower as assignee, (b) any such Loan Assignment Agreement (and the registration of the
related Loan Assets on the books and records of the applicable obligor or bank agent) shall be registered in the name of the Borrower, and (c) any duty on the part of the Securities Intermediary with respect to such Loan Asset (including in
respect of any duty it might otherwise have to maintain a sufficient quantity of such Loan Asset for purposes of UCC Section 8-504) shall be limited to the exercise of reasonable care by the Securities
Intermediary in the physical custody of any such Loan Assignment Agreement that may be delivered to it; provided that the Securities Intermediary shall maintain such Loan Assets as required by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. It
is acknowledged and agreed that none of the Custodian, the Collateral Agent nor the Securities Intermediary is under a duty to examine underlying credit agreements or loan documents to determine the validity or sufficiency of any Loan Assignment
Agreement (and shall have no responsibility for the genuineness or completeness thereof), or for the Borrower’s title to any related Loan Asset.

 Section 8.2 Collection Account. 

(a) The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated
non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Collection Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as
the “Collection Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent shall have
exclusive control over such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal, into which the Collateral Agent shall from time to time deposit (i) any amount received under any
Interest Hedge Agreement, (ii) all proceeds received from the disposition of any Collateral (unless, during the Reinvestment Period, simultaneously reinvested in Collateral Loans, subject to Article X, or in Eligible Investments or to prepay
the Loans in accordance with Section 2.7) and (iii) all Interest Proceeds (including all Fee Proceeds) and all Principal Proceeds. All monies deposited from time to time in the Collection Account pursuant to this Agreement shall be held by
the Collateral Agent as part of the Collateral and shall be applied for the purposes herein provided. The Collection Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank at which the Collection Account
is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Collection Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, the Borrower shall, within 60 days of such occurrence, move the
Collection Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Collection Account
shall be in accordance with the provisions of Sections 6.4, 8.2 and 9.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to establish one or more subaccounts of the Collection Account, one of which shall be designated the
“Interest Collection Account” and the other the “Principal Collection Account” and which together will comprise the “Collection Account” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. 

(b) All Distributions and any net proceeds from the sale or disposition of Pledged Collateral or any Interest Hedge Agreement or other
collateral received by the Collateral Agent shall, subject to the parenthetical in Section 8.2(a)(ii), be immediately deposited into the Collection Account. Subject to Sections 8.2(d) and 8.2(e), all such property, together with any investments
in which funds included in such property are or will be invested or reinvested during the term of this Agreement, and any income or other gain realized from such investments, shall be held by the Collateral Agent in the Collection Account as part of
the Collateral subject to disbursement and withdrawal as provided in this Section 8.2. (i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, by Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower shall
and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Majority Lenders) shall direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order or direction,
as applicable, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Collection Account during a Due Period, and amounts received in prior Due Periods and retained in the Collection Account, as so directed in Eligible Investments having
stated maturities no later than the second Business Day immediately preceding the next Quarterly Payment Date. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent, within one Business Day after receipt of any
Distribution or other proceeds which are not Cash, shall so notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall, within six months of receipt of such notice from the Collateral Agent, sell such Distribution or other proceeds for Cash (at a price equal to
fair market value as reasonably determined by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager in accordance with the Servicing Standard) to any Person (including an Affiliate of the Borrower) and deposit the proceeds thereof in the Collection Account for
investment pursuant to this Section 8.2; provided that the Borrower need not sell such Distributions or other proceeds if it delivers a certificate of an Authorized Officer to the Administrative Agent certifying that such Distributions
or other proceeds constitute Collateral Loans or Eligible Investments or securities subject to transfer restrictions that do not permit such sale. 

  
 - 107 - 








 (c) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if the Borrower shall not have
given any investment directions pursuant to Section 8.2(b), the Collateral Agent shall seek instructions from the Borrower within one Business Day after transfer of such funds to the Collection Account. If the Collateral Agent does not
thereupon receive written instructions from the Borrower within five Business Days after transfer of such funds to the Collection Account, the Collateral Agent shall again seek instructions from the Borrower. If the Collateral Agent does not receive
written instructions from the Borrower within five Business Days after such second request, it shall invest and reinvest the funds held in the Collection Account, as fully practicable, in U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA), which account
shall satisfy the Eligible Investment Required Ratings. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Majority Lenders) shall not have given investment directions to the
Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b) for three consecutive days, the Collateral Agent shall seek instructions from the Administrative Agent. All interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to the Collection Account, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to the Collection Account. 

(d) During the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may by Borrower Order direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such Borrower Order
the Collateral Agent shall, (i) withdraw funds on deposit in the Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds and reinvest such funds in Collateral Loans as permitted under and in accordance with the requirements of Article X and such
Borrower Order, (ii) apply Principal Proceeds to make a prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.7 so long as on the date of such prepayment no Commitment Shortfall results therefrom and (iii) transfer Principal Proceeds
to the Future Funding Reserve Account so long as on the date of such transfer and after giving effect thereto the amount standing to the credit of the Future Funding Reserve Account shall not exceed the aggregate Unfunded Amount. 

After the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may by Borrower Order direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such Borrower Order the
Collateral Agent shall apply Principal Proceeds received by the Borrower (before or after the end of the Reinvestment Period) towards (A) the purchase or origination of Collateral Loans for which a commitment was entered into by the
Borrower prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period in accordance with Section 5.9, (B) the payment or funding of Unfunded Amounts or (C) the funding of the Future Funding Reserve Account on any Business Day (in an amount not exceeding
the Unfunded Amount), in each case pursuant to commitments entered into by the Borrower prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period. 
 By
Borrower Order, the Borrower may at any time direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, pay from time to time on dates other than Quarterly Payment Dates from Interest Proceeds on deposit in
the Collection Account, Administrative Expenses; provided that the aggregate amount of Administrative Expenses paid in any Due Period (excluding Administrative Expenses paid on Quarterly Payment Dates pursuant to the Priority of Payments)
shall not exceed the Retained Expense Amount determined on the immediately prior Quarterly Payment Date plus, without duplication, the Quarterly Cap applicable on the next Quarterly Payment Date. 

(e) The Collateral Agent shall transfer to the Payment Account for application pursuant to Section 9.1(a), on or about the Business Day
(but in no event more than two Business Days) prior to each Quarterly Payment Date, any amounts then held in the Collection Account other than proceeds received after the end of the Due Period with respect to such Quarterly Payment Date. 

(f) The Collateral Agent may from time to time establish any additional accounts and/or subaccounts, which in each case shall be subject to the
lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, deemed necessary by the Collateral Agent for convenience in administering the Collateral. 

  
 - 108 - 








 (g) The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower and the Lenders prompt notice if an
Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Collection Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Collection Account, shall become subject to any
writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. 
 (h) At any time and from time to time the Borrower, or the
Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf, may deposit into the Collection Account funds not previously subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) granted under this Agreement; provided that
(i) the requirements of Section 6.5 are complied with (as shall be deemed certified by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager upon receipt of any deposit by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 8.2(h)), and (ii) upon
such deposit into the Collection Account, such funds shall automatically be subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) granted under this Agreement. Any such deposit shall be irrevocable. The Borrower shall
notify the Agents in writing of any such deposit prior to or contemporaneously therewith. 
 Section 8.3 Payment Account; Future
Funding Reserve Account; Lender Collateral Account; Closing Expense Account. 
 (a) Payment Account. The Collateral Agent shall,
on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Payment Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Payment Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held for the benefit
of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit
in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Except as provided in Sections 6.4 and 9.1, the only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit
in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be to pay the interest on and the principal of the Loans in accordance with their terms and the provisions of this Agreement and, upon Borrower Order or in accordance with the Payment Date
Report, to pay fees, Administrative Agent Fees, Collateral Agent Fees, Administrative Expenses, Commitment Fees, Increased Costs and other amounts specified therein, each in accordance with (and subject to the limitations contained in) the Priority
of Payments. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower and the Lenders immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Payment Account or any funds on
deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Payment Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Borrower shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in
the Payment Account other than in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The Payment Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank at which the Payment Account is maintained ceases to be an
Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Payment Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, the Borrower shall, within 60 days of such occurrence, move the Payment Account to an Eligible Account
Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. 

  
 - 109 - 








 (b) Future Funding Reserve Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing
Date, establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Future Funding Reserve Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Future Funding Reserve Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held for the benefit
of the Secured Parties and amounts shall be deposited from time to time in such account in accordance with Articles VIII and IX. By Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Future Funding Reserve Account as so directed solely in overnight funds that are
Eligible Investments. The only permitted withdrawals from or applications of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Future Funding Reserve Account shall be (i) to fund or pay Unfunded Amounts, (ii) at the election of the
Borrower during the Reinvestment Period, to be applied as Principal Proceeds for use as is provided in this Agreement (including, without limitation, as provided in Section 9.1(a)(ii)) and (iii) after the Reinvestment Period, to the extent
of any Excess Reserve Amount, to be applied as Principal Proceeds in accordance with Section 9.1(a)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of all funds on deposit in the Future Funding Reserve Account on any date that exceeds the
aggregate Unfunded Amount on such date shall be transferred to the Collection Account on such date and applied as Principal Proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts transferred from the Future Funding Reserve Account for application as
Principal Proceeds as provided above shall be further invested in Collateral Loans (to the extent expressly permitted by the other provisions in this Agreement) or applied as Principal Proceeds in accordance with Section 9.1(a)(ii), in each
case as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Future Funding
Reserve Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Future Funding Reserve Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Future Funding Reserve
Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank at which the Future Funding Reserve Account is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Future
Funding Reserve Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, the Borrower shall, within 60 days of such occurrence, move the Future Funding Reserve Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account
bank to enter into a control agreement. Any interest earned on Eligible Investments held in the Future Funding Reserve Account shall be applied as Interest Proceeds. 

(c) Interest Reserve Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated account in the
name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Interest Reserve Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Interest Reserve Account” and which shall be
governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement and maintained with the Securities Intermediary in accordance with the Account Control Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The only permitted deposits to
or withdrawals from the Interest Reserve Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Interest Reserve Account other than in accordance with this
Agreement and the Priority of Payments. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deposit $0 into the Interest Reserve Account. Amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account will be invested in Eligible Investments selected by the
Collateral Manager, and earnings from all such investments will be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds. On the first Quarterly Payment Date, funds in the Interest Reserve Account as of the related Calculation Date will be
applied as Interest Proceeds on such Quarterly Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments, but solely to the extent that other Interest Proceeds are not available to satisfy all amounts described in Section 9.1(a)(i)(A) through
(G). On the second Quarterly Payment Date, remaining funds in the Interest Reserve Account as of the related Calculation Date will be applied as Interest Proceeds on such Quarterly Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The
Interest Reserve Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that 

  
 - 110 - 








 
the account bank at which the Interest Reserve Account is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Interest Reserve Account gives notice that it
is terminating the Account Control Agreement, then the Borrower shall, within 60 days of such occurrence, move the Interest Reserve Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. 

(d) Lender Collateral Account. 

(i) The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated
non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Lender Collateral Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be
designated as the “Lender Collateral Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement and maintained with the Securities Intermediary in accordance with the Account Control
Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over such account (and each subaccount thereof) and the sole right of withdrawal. The Lender Collateral Account may contain any number of subaccounts
for the purposes described in this Section 8.3(d). The Lender Collateral Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank at which the Lender Collateral Account is maintained ceases to be an
Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Lender Collateral Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, then the Borrower shall, within 60 days of such occurrence, move the Lender Collateral
Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. The only permitted deposits to or withdrawals from the Lender Collateral Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. The Borrower shall not have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Lender Collateral Account (or any subaccount thereof). 

(ii) If any Lender shall at any time be required to deposit any amount in the Lender Collateral Account in accordance with
Section 11.5(b)(i), then (x) the Collateral Agent shall create a segregated subaccount of the Lender Collateral Account with respect to such Lender (the “Lender Collateral Subaccount” of such Lender) and (y) the
Collateral Agent shall deposit all funds received from such Lender into such Lender Collateral Subaccount. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds credited to a Lender Collateral Subaccount shall be as specified in this
Section 8.3(d). 
 (iii) With respect to any Lender, the deposit of any funds in the applicable Lender Collateral
Subaccount by such Lender shall not constitute a Borrowing by the Borrower and shall not constitute a utilization of the Commitment of such Lender, and the funds so deposited shall not constitute principal outstanding under the Loans. However, from
and after the establishment of a Lender Collateral Subaccount, the obligation of such Lender to make Loans as part of any Borrowing under this Agreement shall be satisfied by the Collateral Agent withdrawing funds from such Lender Collateral
Subaccount in the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Borrowing. All payments of principal from the Borrower with respect to Loans made by such Lender (whether or not originally funded from such Lender Collateral Subaccount)
shall be made by depositing the related funds into such Lender Collateral Subaccount and all other payments from the Borrower (including without limitation all interest and Commitment Fees) shall be made to such Lender in accordance with the order
specified in the Priority of Payments. The Collateral Agent shall have full power and authority to withdraw funds from each such Lender Collateral Subaccount at the time of, and in connection with, the making of any such Borrowing and to deposit
funds into each such Lender Collateral Subaccount, all in accordance with the terms of and for the purposes set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 - 111 - 








 (iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if on any Quarterly Payment
Date (or on any other Business Day upon one Business Day’s prior written request from such Lender) the sum of the amount of funds on deposit in the Lender Collateral Subaccount exceeds such Lender’s Undrawn Commitment at such time (whether
due to a reduction in the aggregate amount of the Undrawn Commitments or otherwise), then the Collateral Agent shall remit to such Lender a portion of the funds then held in the related Lender Collateral Subaccount in an aggregate amount equal to
such excess. Upon the termination of the Commitments following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and no later than one Business Day after such termination) remit to such Lender all of the funds then held in
its related Lender Collateral Subaccount. 
 (v) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, for so long as any amounts
are on deposit in any Lender Collateral Subaccount, the Collateral Agent shall invest and reinvest such funds in U.S. Bank Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA), which account shall satisfy the Eligible Investment Required Ratings. Interest received
on such Eligible Investments shall be retained in such Lender Collateral Subaccount and invested and reinvested as aforesaid. Any gain realized from such investments shall be credited to such Lender Collateral Subaccount and any loss resulting from
such investments shall be charged to such Lender Collateral Subaccount. Neither the Borrower nor the Collateral Agent shall in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency of such Lender Collateral Subaccount resulting from any loss
relating to any such investment. 
 (e) Closing Expense Account. The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date,
establish a single, segregated non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Closing Expense Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties”, which shall be designated as the “Closing Expense Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control over
such account, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Closing Expense Account shall be held by the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deposit approximately $824,000 into the Closing Expense Account. On any Business Day during the period that the Closing Expense Account is
open, the Collateral Agent shall apply funds from the Closing Expense Account, as directed by the Borrower, to pay fees and expenses of the Borrower incurred in connection with the structuring, consummation, closing and post-closing of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Upon the delivery on any date that is at least 30 days after the Closing Date of a Borrower Order instructing the Collateral Agent to close the Closing Expense Account, all funds in the Closing Expense
Account will be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds and the Closing Expense Account will be closed. By Borrower Order (which may be in the form of standing instructions), the Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, direct the Collateral Agent to, and, upon receipt of such Borrower Order, the Collateral Agent shall, invest all funds received into the Closing Expense Account during a Due Period as so directed by the Borrower in
Eligible Investments. Any income earned on amounts deposited in the Closing Expense Account will be deposited in the Collection Account as Interest Proceeds as it is received. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower immediate notice if an
Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Closing Expense Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Closing Expense Account, shall become subject
to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Closing Expense Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank at which the Closing Expense Account is
maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Closing Expense Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, the Borrower shall, within 60 days of


  
 - 112 - 








 
such occurrence, move the Closing Expense Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. The only permitted withdrawal from or
application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Closing Expense Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.3(e). 

Section 8.4 Custodial Account. 

(a) The Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated
non-interest bearing account in the name “ABPCIC Funding III LLC Custodial Account, subject to the lien of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties”, which shall be designated as
the “Custodial Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be maintained with the Securities Intermediary pursuant to the terms of the Account
Control Agreement and over which the Collateral Agent shall have exclusive control, subject to the Borrower’s right to give instructions specified herein, and the sole right of withdrawal. Any and all assets or securities at any time on deposit
in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Custodial Account shall be held by the Custodian for the benefit for the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Except in connection with a liquidation pursuant to Article VI, the only
permitted withdrawal from the Custodial Account or in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Custodial Account shall be as directed, upon Borrower Order, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 8.5 and 8.6. The Collateral Agent agrees to give the
Borrower and the Lenders immediate notice if an Administrative Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge of or receives written notice that the Custodial Account or any assets or securities on deposit therein, or otherwise to the
credit of the Custodial Account, has become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. The Custodial Account shall remain at all times with an Eligible Account Bank. In the event that the account bank
at which the Custodial Account is maintained ceases to be an Eligible Account Bank, or the account bank with respect to the Custodial Account gives notice that it is terminating the Account Control Agreement, the Borrower shall, within 60 days of
such occurrence, move the Custodial Account to an Eligible Account Bank and cause the successor account bank to enter into a control agreement. 

The Collateral Agent shall appoint a custodian (the “Custodian”) to act as a securities intermediary for purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Initially, such Custodian shall be U.S. Bank. Any successor custodian shall be a state or national bank or trust company which (i) is not an Affiliate of the Borrower, (ii) has a combined capital and
surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000, (iii) has a DBRS Long Term Rating of at least “A”, (iv) has a DBRS Short Term Rating of at least “R-1 (middle)” and (v) is a securities
intermediary. The rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall also be afforded to the Custodian. 

In taking and retaining custody of the Related Contracts, the Custodian shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of the Secured Parties;
provided that the Custodian makes no representations as to the existence, perfection or priority of any lien on the Related Contracts or the instruments therein; provided further that the Custodian’s duties as agent shall
be limited to those expressly contemplated herein and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. All Related Contracts that are delivered to the Custodian shall be delivered to U.S. Bank at its document custody office located at U.S.
Bank Global Corporate Trust, 1719 Otis Way, Florence, South Carolina, 29501, or at such other office as shall be specified to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Manager and the Borrower by the Custodian in a written notice prior to such
change. All Related Contracts that are originals or copies shall be kept in fire resistant vaults, rooms or cabinets at such offices and placed together with an appropriate identifying label and maintained in such a manner so as to permit retrieval
and access. All Related Contracts that are originals or copies shall be clearly segregated from any other documents or instruments maintained by the Custodian. The Custodian shall have no obligation to review or monitor any Related Contracts but
shall only be required to hold those Related Contracts received by it in safekeeping. In taking and retaining 

  
 - 113 - 








 
custody of the Related Contracts, the Custodian shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of the Secured Parties; provided that the Custodian makes no representations as to the existence,
perfection or priority of any lien on the Related Contracts or the instruments therein; provided further that the Custodian’s duties as agent shall be limited to those expressly contemplated herein. 

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 8.5 and 8.6, all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the Custodial Account, all
related property, and all proceeds thereof shall be subject to the security interest of the Collateral Agent hereunder. 
 (c) With respect
to securities (including without limitation debt and equity securities, bonds, money market funds and mutual funds) issued in the United States, the Shareholders Communications Act of 1985 (the “Act”) requires the Custodian to
disclose to the issuers of such securities, upon their request, the name, address and securities position of its customers who are (a) the “beneficial owners” (as defined in the Act) of such issuer’s securities, if the beneficial
owner does not object to such disclosure, or (b) acting as a “respondent bank” (as defined in the Act) with respect to such securities. (Under the Act, “respondent banks” do not have the option of objecting to such
disclosure upon the issuers’ request.) The Act defines a “beneficial owner” as any person who has, or shares, the power to vote a security (pursuant to an agreement or otherwise), or who directs the voting of a security. The Act
defines a “respondent bank” as any bank, association or other entity that exercises fiduciary powers which holds securities on behalf of beneficial owners and deposits such securities for safekeeping with a bank, such as the Custodian.
Under the Act, a customer is either the “beneficial owner” or a “respondent bank”. The “customer” for purposes hereof shall mean the Borrower and each Lender, each of which shall be deemed to be the “beneficial
owner” (as defined in the Act) of such securities to be held by the Custodian hereunder, and each of the Borrower and the Lenders hereby waives any objection to the disclosure of its name, address and securities position to any such issuer
which requests such information pursuant to the Act for the specific purpose of direct communications between such issuer and the Borrower and each Lender. Each of the Borrower and the Lenders may, by written notice to the Custodian, opt out of the
waiver referred to in the foregoing sentence and elect not to consent to the disclosure referred to in the foregoing sentence. With respect to such securities issued outside of the United States, information shall be released to issuers only if
required by law or regulation of the particular country in which the securities are located. 
 (d) At any time and from time to time the
Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf, may deposit into the Custodial Account Collateral Loans and/or Eligible Investments not previously subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) granted under this Agreement; provided that (i) the requirements of Section 6.5 are complied with and (ii) upon such deposit into the Custodial Account, such assets shall automatically be subject to the Lien of the
Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) granted under this Agreement. Any such deposit shall be irrevocable. The Borrower shall notify the Agents in writing of any such deposit prior to or contemporaneously therewith. 

Section 8.5 Acquisition of Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments. Each time that the Borrower acquires any Collateral Loan,
Eligible Investment or other Collateral, the Borrower shall, if such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment or other Collateral has not already been transferred to the Custodial Account, transfer or cause the transfer of such Collateral Loan or
Eligible Investment and other Collateral to the Custodian to be held for the benefit of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The security interest of the Collateral Agent in the funds or other property utilized in
connection with such acquisition shall, immediately and without further action on the part of the Collateral Agent, be released. The security interest of the Collateral Agent shall nevertheless come into existence and continue in the Collateral
Loans and Eligible Investments and other Collateral so acquired, including all rights of the Borrower in and to any Related Contracts and Collections with respect to such Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments and other Collateral.

 Section 8.6 Release of Security Interest in Sold Collateral Loans and Eligible
Investments; Release of Security Interests Upon Termination. 
 (a) Upon any sale or other disposition of a Collateral Loan or Eligible
Investment or other Collateral (or portion thereof) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the security interest of the Collateral Agent in such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment or other Collateral (or the portion thereof which has
been sold or otherwise disposed of), and in all Collections and rights under Related Contracts with respect to such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment or other Collateral (but not in the proceeds of such sale or other disposition) shall,
immediately upon the sale or other disposition of such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment or other Collateral (or such portion), and without any further action on the part of the Collateral Agent, be released, except for the proceeds of such
sale or other disposition and except to the extent of the interest, if any, in such Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment or other Collateral which is then retained by the Borrower or which thereafter reverts to the Borrower for any reason. 

(b) Upon the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all Commitments hereunder, the Collateral shall be released from the liens
created hereby and under the other Loan Documents, and this Agreement and all obligations of the Agents and each Lender hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the
Collateral shall revert to the Borrower. At the request and sole expense of the Borrower following any such termination, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall promptly deliver to the Borrower (or its designee)
any Collateral held by such Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Borrower such documents as the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. Any such release or termination shall be subject to the provision that the
Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release or termination any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Borrower, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment
had not been made. 
 Section 8.7 Method of Collateral Transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each
item of Collateral shall be delivered to the Custodian by: 
 (a) with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes an
instrument, tangible chattel paper, a negotiable document, or money, causing the Custodian to take possession of such instrument indorsed to the Custodian or in blank, or such money, negotiable document, or tangible chattel paper, in the State of
Wisconsin separate and apart from all other property held by the Custodian; 
 (b) with respect to such of the Collateral as
constitutes a certificated security in bearer form, causing the Custodian to take possession of the related security certificate in the State of Wisconsin; 

(c) with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes a certificated security in registered form, causing the Custodian to
take possession of the related security certificate in the State of Wisconsin, indorsed to the Custodian or in blank by an effective indorsement, or registered in the name of the Custodian, upon original issue or registration of transfer by the
issuer of such certificated security; 

  
 - 115 - 








 (d) with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes an uncertificated
security, causing the issuer of such uncertificated security to register the Custodian or its nominee for the account of the Custodian as the registered owner of such uncertificated security; 

(e) with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes a security entitlement, causing the Securities Intermediary to
indicate by book entry that the financial asset relating to such security entitlement has been credited to the Custodial Account; 

(f) with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes a deposit account, causing such deposit account to be established and
maintained in the name of the Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, by a bank the jurisdiction of which for purposes of the UCC is the State of New York; and 

(g) taking such additional or alternative procedures as may hereafter become appropriate to grant a first priority, perfected
security interest in such items of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent, consistent with applicable law or regulations. 
 If any item of
Collateral is a financial asset issued by an issuer that is not the United States of America, an agency or instrumentality thereof, or some other United States person or entity, and if such item cannot be delivered as set forth above, such item may
be delivered by the Collateral Agent holding such item in an account created and maintained in the name of the Collateral Agent with a banking or securities institution or a clearing agency or system located outside the United States such that the
Collateral Agent holds a first priority, perfected security interest in such item of Collateral. 
 The Borrower shall record and file on or
before the Closing Date all financing statements, and the Borrower agrees to record and file after the Closing Date all appropriate financing statements, continuation statements, and other amendments, meeting the requirements of applicable law in
such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect and protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code against all creditors of and purchasers from the Borrower. The Borrower
promptly shall deliver file-stamped copies of such financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments to the Agents. 
 In
connection with each transfer of an item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent and/or the Custodian, the Collateral Agent or the Custodian, as applicable, shall make appropriate notations on its records indicating that such item of the Collateral is
held for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to and as provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Effective upon the transfer of an item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent and/or the Custodian, the Collateral Agent or the
Custodian, as applicable, shall be deemed to acknowledge that it holds such item of Collateral as Collateral Agent or as Custodian, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties.

 Section 8.8 Continuing Liability of the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Borrower shall remain liable under each Related Contract, interest and obligation included in the Collateral, to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder (including any undertaking to
maintain insurance), all in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions thereof, and shall do nothing to impair the security interest of the Collateral Agent in any Collateral. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall
have any obligation or liability under any such Related Contract, interest or obligation by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating to any such Related Contract,
interest or obligation pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be required or obligated in any manner to 

  
 - 116 - 








 
perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Borrower thereunder or pursuant thereto, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment
received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such Related Contract, interest or obligation, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amount
thereunder to which it may be entitled at any time. 
 Section 8.9 Reports. 

(a) The Collateral Administrator shall deliver to the Borrower by facsimile (or such other medium as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the
Collateral Administrator) by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on each Business Day a report describing all Money (including but not limited to a breakdown of all such amounts into Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds) and other property received by it
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the preceding Business Day (the “Daily Report”). If any Money or property shall be received by the Collateral Agent on a day that is not a Business Day, the
Collateral Administrator shall deliver the Daily Report with respect thereto to the Borrower on the second Business Day after receipt of such Money or other property. 

(b) The Collateral Administrator shall compile and provide, subject to the Collateral Administrator’s receipt from the Collateral Manager,
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the Early-Monthly Tape, Mid-Monthly Loan Tape, Quarterly Loan Tape and such other information with respect to the Collateral Loans and Eligible
Investments to the extent not maintained or in the possession of the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Report and the Payment Date Report in accordance with Exhibit D and Exhibit E hereof, respectively, and prepare drafts of such Collateral
Report and Payment Date Report and provide such drafts to the Collateral Manager for review and approval; provided that each such draft is to be provided no later than three days prior to the date the Collateral Report or the Payment Date
Report, as applicable, is due. The Borrower shall cause the Collateral Manager to review and confirm the calculations made by the Collateral Administrator in such Collateral Report or Payment Date Report within two days prior to the due date of the
Collateral Report or the Payment Date Report. 
 The Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower
shall cooperate with the Collateral Administrator in connection with the preparation by the Collateral Administrator of Collateral Reports and Payment Date Reports. The Collateral Manager shall review and verify the contents of the aforesaid
reports, instructions, statements and certificates, and upon verification shall make such reports available to DBRS. Upon receipt of approval from the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Administrator shall transmit the same to the Borrower and shall
make such reports available to the Administrative Agent and each Lender. 
 (c) The Collateral Administrator may conclusively rely on and
without any investigation, the Early-Monthly Tape, Mid-Monthly Loan Tape and Quarterly Loan Tape and any other information provided by the Collateral Manager, Borrower and Administrative Agent in preparation
of the Collateral Report and Payment Date Report. Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to review or examine the Early-Monthly Tape, Mid-Monthly Loan Tape or Quarterly Loan Tape for
accuracy, correctness or validity. 
 The Collateral Administrator will make the Collateral Report and Payment Date Report available via its
internet website. The Collateral Administrator’s internet website shall initially be located at http://pivot.usbank.com. The Collateral Administrator may change the way such statements are distributed. As a condition to access to the Collateral
Administrator’s internet website, the Collateral Administrator may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer. The Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to rely on but shall not be responsible for the content or accuracy of
any information provided in the Collateral Report and the Payment Date Report which the Collateral Administrator disseminates in accordance with this Agreement and may affix thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion.

 (d) Nothing herein shall impose or imply any duty or obligation on the part of the Collateral
Administrator to verify, investigate or audit any such information or data, or to determine or monitor on an independent basis whether any issuer of the Collateral Loan is in default or in compliance with the underlying documents governing or
securing such securities, from time to time, the role of the Collateral Administrator hereunder being solely to perform certain mathematical computations and data comparisons as provided herein. For purposes of updating the ratings of Collateral
Loans, the Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to use and rely (in good faith) exclusively upon one or more reputable electronic financial information reporting services, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracies in the information
reported by, or other errors or omissions of, any such services. It is hereby expressly agreed that Bloomberg Financial Markets is one such reputable service. 

(e) The Collateral Administrator shall have no liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Collateral Manager or
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Administrator, or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no
liability for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Administrator’s part of any of its duties hereunder that is caused by or results from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by
it, or other failure on the part of any such other party to comply with the terms hereof. 
 (f) If, in performing its duties under this
Section 8.9 in connection with compiling and delivering reports, the Collateral Administrator is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Administrator may request written instructions from the Collateral
Manager, acting on behalf of the Borrower, as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Administrator does not receive such instructions within three Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Administrator may, but
shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Administrator shall act in accordance with instructions received after such three-Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or
committed itself to take action inconsistent with such instructions. The Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent accountants in performing its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have
acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice.

be at least equal to the highest of (a) the highest actionable bid obtained from at least two unaffiliated loan market participants for such Credit Risk Loan or Defaulted Loan, (b) the Principal Balance of such Credit Risk Loan or
Defaulted Loan multiplied by the applicable DBRS Recovery Rate for such Credit Risk Loan or Defaulted Loan and (c) the Market Value of such Credit Risk Loan or Defaulted Loan (provided that Market Value shall not be determined pursuant
to clause (d) or (e) of the definition thereof). The limitations set forth in subclauses (i) through (ix) above are referred to herein as the “Repurchase and Substitution Limits”. 

(viii) Sales of Collateral Loans to Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, one or more Collateral Loans may be sold from time to time by the Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf, to the Collateral Manager or an Affiliate thereof or to any account or fund for which the
Collateral Manager or an Affiliate thereof acts as investment adviser only if (A) the terms and conditions thereof are no less favorable to the Borrower than the terms it would obtain in a comparable, timely sale with a non-Affiliate, (B) the transactions are effected in accordance with all Applicable Laws and (C)(i) if such sale is a sale of a Credit Risk Loan or a Defaulted Loan, the sale price is equal to the highest of

 - 124 - 








 
Collateral Loan, the sale price is equal to the higher of (x) an amount not less than the original purchase price paid by the Borrower with respect to such Collateral Loan (after adding the
amount of any subsequent borrowings and subtracting the amount of any subsequent repayments thereof) and (y) the Market Value with respect to such Collateral Loan. 

(ix) Sales of Excess Concentration Loans. The Borrower or the Collateral Manager may direct the Collateral Agent in
writing to sell (A) any Excess Concentration Loan (other than a CCC Excess Collateral Loan) at any time during or after the Reinvestment Period if each Concentration Limitation is satisfied immediately after giving effect to such sale and
(B) any CCC Excess Collateral Loan at any time during or after the Reinvestment Period. 
 (x) Sales in Connection
with Payment in Full and Termination of the Facility. The Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower, may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to sell, assign or transfer all or any portion of the Collateral in connection
with the payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than any unasserted contingent Obligations), the termination of all of the Commitments and the payment of any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments;
provided that the proceeds from any such sale, assignment or transfer directed pursuant to this Section 10.1(a)(x) are sufficient to pay in full all of the Obligations (other than any unasserted contingent Obligations) and any other
amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments; provided that such certification shall be deemed given upon delivery by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager of a trade ticket or other direction to sell, assign or transfer
all or any portion of the Collateral as provided hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower, may only direct such sales, assignments or transfers contemplated by this

 (b) Participations. 

(i) During the Reinvestment Period, the Borrower may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to sell, and the Collateral Agent
shall sell in the manner directed by the Borrower in writing, a Participation Interest in any Collateral Loan that is a term loan (other than a Delayed Funding Loan).

Funding Loan. 
 (c) Rules Generally Applicable to Sales of Collateral Loans. 

(i) All sales of Collateral Loans or any portion thereof (including Participation Interests) pursuant to this Section 10.1
shall be for Cash on a non-recourse basis, which shall be deemed Principal Proceeds for all purposes hereunder. 

(ii) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both prior to and after an Event of Default, the Borrower shall cause any
sale or liquidation of any Collateral Loan or other property or assets to be conducted on an arm’s length basis upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Borrower than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s length
transaction with a Person not an Affiliate. 
 Section 10.2 Eligibility Criteria. On and after the date of the first Borrowing,
a debt obligation will be eligible for purchase or origination (including in connection with a substitution pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(vii)) by the Borrower and inclusion in the Collateral only if as evidenced by


  
 - 125 - 








 
an officer’s certificate (which officer’s certificate shall be deemed given upon delivery of a trade ticket or other direction to purchase or originate such debt obligation) of an
Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivered to the Collateral Agent, the Eligibility Criteria are satisfied at the time such debt obligation is purchased or originated (on a trade date basis), after giving effect to the inclusion of such debt
obligation.

Article X or in connection with the acquisition, disposition or substitution of any asset shall be conducted on an arm’s-length basis. 

ARTICLE XI 
 CHANGE IN
CIRCUMSTANCES 
 Section 11.1 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. 

(a) In the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, if on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, unless the Administrative Agent determines
that a LIBOR Transition Event and its related LIBOR Replacement Date have occurred: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent is unable
to obtain a quotation for the London Interbank Offered Rate as contemplated by Section 2.5, or 
 (ii) the Majority
Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that as a result of changes arising after the date of this Agreement in the London Interbank Offered Rate they have determined, in their commercially reasonable judgment, that a material disruption to LIBOR or
a change in the methodology of calculating LIBOR has occurred, or that the London Interbank Offered Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding or maintaining their
Eurodollar Rate Loans for such Interest Period, 
 in each case the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone
confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, DBRS, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Collateral Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such
suspension no longer exist, which notice shall be given promptly following the cessation of such circumstances, the obligations (if any) of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be fulfilled based on LIBOR in effect for the prior Interest
Period; provided that if such period of unavailability continues for more than 30 days, then on the close of business on the 30th day, a LIBOR Transition Event shall have been deemed to
occur and the following day shall be considered the LIBOR Replacement Date. 
 (b) If the Administrative Agent determines that a LIBOR
Transition Event and its related LIBOR Replacement Date have occurred, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may choose a replacement index for LIBOR and make adjustments to applicable margins and related amendments to this Agreement as
referred to below such that, to the extent practicable, the all-in interest rate based on the replacement index will be substantially equivalent to the all-in
LIBOR-based interest rate in effect prior to its replacement. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect the replacement index, the adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may
be appropriate, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, Section 12.5), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this 

  
 - 126 - 








 
Agreement at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the 10th Business Day after the date a draft of the amendment is provided to the Lenders and DBRS, unless the Administrative Agent receives, on or
before such 10th Business Day, a written notice from the Majority Lenders stating that such Lenders object to such amendment. 
 Selection
of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly
originated loans in the United States, loans converted from a LIBOR-based rate to a replacement index-based rate and consistent with market practices in the market for collateralized loan obligations, and (ii) may also reflect adjustments, to
the extent consistent with market practices in the collateralized loan obligations market, to account for (x) the effects of the transition from LIBOR to the replacement index and (y) yield- or risk-based differences between LIBOR and the
replacement index. Any selection of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement will be after consultation and agreement of the Borrower. 

Until an amendment reflecting a new replacement index in accordance with this Section 11.1 is effective, each advance, conversion and
renewal of a Loan will continue to bear interest with reference to LIBOR and if no such rate is provided, as set forth in the definition thereof, LIBOR for such Interest Period will be the Fallback Rate in effect on the first day of such Interest
Period. The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to DBRS, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator promptly upon the implementation of the Fallback Rate. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero, at such times, such index shall be deemed
to be zero for purposes of this Agreement. 
 Section 11.2 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption
of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender in good faith with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible
for any Lender to make, maintain or fund its Eurodollar Rate Loans (if any) and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in
writing) to the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, DBRS and the Borrower, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make
Eurodollar Rate Loans (if any) shall be suspended (provided that such Lender shall instead fund Base Rate Loans). Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.2, such Lender shall designate a different
Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and would not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If circumstances subsequently change so that it is no longer unlawful for an affected Lender to make
or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as contemplated hereunder, such Lender will, as soon as reasonably practicable after such Lender becomes aware of such change in circumstances, notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent
and upon receipt of such notice, the obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be reinstated.

 Section 11.3 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. 

(a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or
regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable
Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement
imposed by the Federal Reserve Board), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any
Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Rate Loans, its Notes evidencing Eurodollar Rate Loans, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the result of any
of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this
Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto (other than any increased costs on account of (x) Indemnified Taxes, (y) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and
(z) Connection Income Taxes) by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and DBRS), such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction shall constitute
“Increased Costs” payable by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 9.1(a) and 6.4; provided that such amounts shall be no greater than that which such Lender is generally charging other borrowers similarly situated to Borrower. 

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital
adequacy, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender as a
consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an
amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, upon demand (which demand shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand for compensation) by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and DBRS),
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction (to the extent funds are available therefor in accordance with the Priority of Payments) shall constitute “Increased Costs” payable by the Borrower
pursuant to Sections 9.1(a) and 6.4; provided that such amount shall be no greater than that which such Lender is generally charging other borrowers similarly situated to Borrower. 

(c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, DBRS and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has
knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 11.3 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount
of, such compensation and will not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 11.3 and setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the additional amount or amounts
to be paid to it hereunder shall be delivered in connection with any request for compensation and shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation under this Section 11.3 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 11.3 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which the applicable Lender has actual knowledge of the event giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and (y) the date on which the applicable Lender should, in the exercise of reasonable care, have knowledge of the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions; provided that if the event giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 - 128 - 








 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) no Lender shall demand
compensation for any increased cost, reduction or capital referred to above in Section 11.3(a) or (b) if it shall not at the time be the general policy and practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under
comparable provisions of other credit agreements from similarly situated borrowers and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated (x) by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on
Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority), the Committee of European Banking Supervisors or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III or similar capital requirements directive existing
on the Closing Date impacting European banks and other regulated financial institutions and (y) pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, shall, in each case, be deemed to be a change or adoption of any law,
rule or regulation for purposes of this Section 11.3, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. 
 (e) If the
Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender under this Section 11.3, then, in accordance with Section 11.5, the Borrower may, at its own expense and in its sole discretion, require such Lender to transfer or assign, in
whole, without recourse all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes to an assignee (it being understood that such Lender shall have no obligation to search for, seek, designate or otherwise try to find, such
assignee) which shall assume such obligations (and which may be another Lender, if such other Lender accepts such assignment). 
 (f)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.3, the Borrower shall not be required to pay amounts to any Lender under this Section 11.3 to the extent such amounts would be duplicative of amounts payable by the Borrower under
Section 11.4. To the extent the Borrower is required to pay any Lender additional amounts or indemnify any Lender in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 11.4, the provisions of Section 11.4 shall control. 

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to clauses (a) or (b)
of this Section 11.3 to the extent any such additional amounts are attributable to a failure by a Lender to comply with its obligations under the Securitisation Regulations. 

Section 11.4 Taxes. 

(a) Except as required by applicable law, any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the
Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear, of and without deduction for, any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any governmental
authority, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto (“Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any
Note to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with
applicable law, (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrower to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or
withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 11.4(a)) such 

  
 - 129 - 








 
Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Tax been made and
(iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address set forth on the signature pages hereof, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or, if a receipt is not available, such other evidence
of payment as may be reasonably acceptable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to timely pay to the
relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes. 
 (c) (i) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender
and the Agents for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 11.4) paid or payable by such Lender or the Agents (as the case may be)
and any liability (including reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed. This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date such Lender or the
Agents (as the case may be) makes demand therefor accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower establishing liability for such Indemnified Taxes. 

(ii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but only to the extent such Taxes are
Excluded Taxes) attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 15
days from the date the Administrative Agent makes demand therefor accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Lender establishing liability for such Excluded Taxes. 

(d) (i) Each Lender that is a U.S. Person, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender and from time to time thereafter if requested
in writing by the Borrower or any Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower or such Agent with two copies of duly executed IRS Form W-9 (or any
successor form prescribed by the IRS) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Each Lender that is not a U.S. Person, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender and from time to time thereafter if
requested in writing by the Borrower or any Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower or such Agent with two copies of duly executed IRS Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS
(together with appropriate attachments), either (w) certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which eliminates, or reduces the rate of U.S. federal
withholding tax on payments hereunder, (x) certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (y) in the case of a Lender claiming the
benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, accompanied by a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower (or its sole beneficial owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes) within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in
section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (z) in the case of a Lender providing a Form W-8IMY (or any successor form prescribed by the IRS), certifying that such Lender is not the beneficial owner of payments
hereunder and providing such information and forms as required by applicable law to establish the rate of U.S. withholding tax (if any) with respect to such payments. In addition to the foregoing requirements of this Section 11.4(d)(i), each
Lender shall, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), deliver to the


  
 - 130 - 








 
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) executed originals or copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
claiming an exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with any required supplementary information (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so). 

(ii) Each Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent, if applicable) documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower sufficient for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has
complied with such applicable reporting requirements and whether withholding is required under FATCA. For purposes of this Section 11.4(d)(ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(iii) Each Lender hereby agrees that if any form or certification such Lender previously delivered pursuant to this
Section 11.4(d) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall update such form or certification or notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so, in each case promptly
after such form or certification so expires or becomes obsolete. 
 (e) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the
account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 11.4, then such Lender will change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the sole
judgment of such Lender, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(f) If a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified under this Section 11.4, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 11.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund).
The Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, shall repay to such Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) in the event that such Lender
is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (f), in no event will a Lender be required to pay an amount to the Borrower pursuant to this clause (f) the payment of
which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had never been deducted, withheld
or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This clause (f) shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained
in this Section 11.4, all payments made to a Lender pursuant to this Section 11.4 shall only be made to the extent funds are available in accordance with the Priority of Payments. 

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any
assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

  
 - 131 - 








 Section 11.5 Replacement of Lenders; Downgraded Lenders; Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) (x) If and for so long as any Lender is (1) a Downgraded Lender (subject to clauses (b) and (c) below), (2) a Defaulting Lender,
(3) requesting compensation under Section 11.3 or (4) unable to make Loans under Section 11.2, (y) if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to such Lender or any authority for the account of such Lender pursuant
to Section 11.4 or (z) if and for so long as the obligations of any Lender under this Agreement are the subject of a Bail-In Action, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice
to such Lender, the Agents and DBRS, direct such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender shall comply with such direction but shall have no obligation to search for, seek, designate or otherwise try to find, an assignee), without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.6), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes to a financial institution that is (I) a Permitted
Purchaser and (with respect to the Revolving Loans) an Approved Lender (and is not otherwise a Defaulting Lender), (II) eligible to purchase the replaced Lender’s Loans under the terms hereof, (III) not prohibited by any applicable law
from making such purchase and (IV) not the subject of a Bail-In Action with respect to its obligations hereunder (such purchaser, an “Approved Purchaser”), which shall assume such
obligations (and which may be another Lender, if such other Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: 
 (i)
such assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under its Note (including any amounts
under Section 2.9) from such Approved Purchaser (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(ii) in the case of any such assignment or delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 11.3 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 11.4, such assignment or delegation will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

(iii) such assignment or delegation does not conflict with any applicable law; and 

(iv) in the case of an assignment of Swingline Loans, Class A-R Loans and/or Class A-T Loans, such Approved Purchaser shall deliver to the Borrower a notice of whether such Lender will be a CP Lender and, if so, the basis of the interest payable to such Approved Purchaser. 

(b) If and for so long as any Lender is a Downgraded Lender or a Defaulting Lender hereunder: 

(i) in the case of a Downgraded Lender, it holds any portion of the Commitments that remain in effect, then, as soon as
practicable and in any event within 30 days after becoming a Downgraded Lender, (x) it shall deposit an amount equal to its Undrawn Commitments at such time into the Lender Collateral Account and (y) all principal payments in respect of
the Loans which would otherwise be made to such Downgraded Lender shall be diverted to the Lender Collateral Subaccount of such Downgraded Lender in accordance with Section 8.3(d), and any amounts in such Lender Collateral Subaccount shall be
applied to any future funding obligations of such Downgraded Lender; and 

  
 - 132 - 








 (ii) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, (x) the Commitment and Loans of any
such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.5);
provided that a Defaulting Lender’s vote shall be included with respect to any action hereunder relating to any change that would require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender under Section 12.5 (to the extent such
Defaulting Lender is such an affected Lender) and (y) no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which time that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any
such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender during such time). 
 (c) Notwithstanding
anything in Section 11.5(a) to the contrary, (i) a Lender shall not be required to make any assignment or delegation referred to in Section 11.5(a) if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or the Borrower or
otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply and such Lender gives notice thereof to the Borrower and (ii) the Borrower may not require a Downgraded Lender to make any such
assignment or delegation during the 30-day period referred to in clause (b)(i) above or at any time that a Downgraded Lender is in compliance with clause (b)(i)(x) above. 

(d) Each of the Administrative Agent and any replaced Lender will agree to cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Borrower for the
purpose of effecting a transfer in compliance with this Section 11.5. 
 (e) Nothing in this Section 11.5 shall be deemed to
release a Defaulting Lender or Downgraded Lender from any liability arising from its failure to fund any Loans it is required to make hereunder. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution
Authority, the provisions of this Agreement relating to Downgraded Lenders (including Sections 8.3(d) and 11.5) shall continue to apply after the occurrence of a Bail-In Action, including that any amounts
previously deposited in any Lender Collateral Subaccount will remain available in such Lender Collateral Subaccount following the occurrence of a Bail-In Action for the purposes set forth in this Agreement.

 Section 11.6 Resignation and Removal of the Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender may resign as the Swingline Lender
hereunder upon 30 days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and DBRS. The Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline
Lender (provided that no consent will be required if the replaced Swingline Lender has no Swingline Loans outstanding) and the successor Swingline Lender; provided that such successor Swingline Lender is an Approved Lender. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, (i) the Borrower shall prepay any outstanding Swingline Loans made by the resigning or
removed Swingline Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the resigning or removed Swingline Lender shall surrender any Note held by it evidencing its Swingline Loans to the successor Administrative Agent for cancellation and (iii) the Borrower
shall, if so requested by the successor Swingline Lender, promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and otherwise appropriately
completed. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or resignation, (x) any successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made
thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require.

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 12.1 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including bank
wire, facsimile, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party: (w) in the case of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, at its address, facsimile number and/or
email address set forth on the signature pages hereof, (x)(1) in the case of any initial Lender, at its address, facsimile number and/or email address set forth on the signature pages hereof and (2) in the case of any other Lender, at its
address, facsimile number and/or email address set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire (which notices shall be solely by facsimile or email if so indicated therein), (y) in the case of DBRS, at its address, facsimile number and/or email
address set forth on Schedule G (provided that all notices to DBRS shall be sent by email, whether or not also sent by physical address and/or facsimile) or (z) in the case of any party, such other address, facsimile number and/or email
address as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile, when such
facsimile is transmitted to the facsimile number specified in this Section 12.1 and the appropriate answerback is received, (ii) if given by mail, three Business Days after such communication is deposited in the mails with first class
postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid, (iii) if given by recognized courier guaranteeing overnight delivery, one Business Day after such communication is delivered to such courier or (iv) if given by any other means, when delivered at
the address or email address specified in this Section 12.1; provided that notices to the Administrative Agent under Article XI or to the Collateral Agent under Article VIII shall not be effective until received. 

The Collateral Agent agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement sent by unsecured email, facsimile
transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided that any person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Collateral Agent an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to provide such
instructions or directions, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is added or deleted from the listing. If such person elects to give the Collateral Agent email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar
electronic method) and the Collateral Agent in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Collateral Agent’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for
any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Collateral Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written
instruction. Any person providing such instructions acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in
connection with its transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances. 

Section 12.2 No Waivers. No failure or delay by either Agent or any Lender or the Borrower in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 

  
 - 134 - 








 Section 12.3 Expenses; Indemnification. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses of the Agents, the Custodian and the Securities Intermediary, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of
counsel, agents and experts in connection with the preparation, syndications and administration of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and any documents and instruments referred to therein, and further modifications or syndications of the Loans in
connection therewith, the administration of the Loans, any waiver or consent hereunder or any amendment or modification hereof or any Default hereunder (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel, agents and experts for each Agent, in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents
and the instruments referred to therein and such collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. For the sake of clarity, this Section 12.3(a) shall not impose any payment obligation on the Borrower
with respect to Taxes, which obligation shall be addressed solely by Section 11.4. 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Custodian, U.S. Bank as Securities Intermediary and each Lender, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing
(each, an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements
of counsel, agents and experts for each Agent, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any
time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, (i) any of the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document, (ii) the grant to the Collateral Agent and the Lenders of any Lien, on the Collateral, (iii) the exercise by the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders of their rights and remedies (including, without limitation, foreclosure) under any agreements creating any such Lien, (iv) the failure of the Collateral Agent to have a valid and perfected Lien on any
Collateral, (v) a breach by the Borrower of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document or any document relating to any Collateral, (vi) any enforcement by an Indemnitee of this Agreement, including the
indemnity obligations herein or (vii) any loss arising from any action or inaction of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates regarding the administration of any Collateral or otherwise relating to such Collateral (other than an Obligor’s
financial inability to make payments with respect to any such Collateral) but excluding, as to any Indemnitee, any such losses, liabilities, damages, expenses or costs incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 12.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations and removal or resignation of any
Agent. For the sake of clarity, this Section 12.3(b) shall not impose any indemnification or similar obligation on the Borrower with respect to Taxes, which obligation shall be addressed solely by Section 11.4, other than Taxes that
represent losses, liabilities, damages, expenses or costs arising from non-Tax claims. If the Borrower has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 12.3 and the recipient thereof later collects
any payments from others (including insurance companies) in respect of such amounts, then the recipient shall repay to the Borrower an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such amounts net of the recipient’s
expenses in collecting such payments and only to the extent that the recipient remains fully indemnified after giving effect to such repayment to the Borrower. 

Section 12.4 Sharing of Set-Offs. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted
under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to 

  
 - 135 - 








 
appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without
limitation, by branches and agencies of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement or under any
of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender. 
 Each Lender agrees
that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts due with respect to any
Loan of its Class held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts due with respect to the Loans of its Class held by such other
Lender, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loans of its Class held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of
principal, interest, fees and other amounts with respect to the Loans held of such Class by the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders of its Class pro rata; provided that nothing in this Section 12.4 shall impair the
right of any Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of Indebtedness of the Borrower other than its Indebtedness
under the Loans. The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Loan, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, by separate agreement with the Borrower, waive its right to set off contained herein or granted by law and any such written waiver shall be effective against such Lender under this
Section 12.4. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 12.4, a pro rata allocation will mean an allocation of the amount received by such set-off or counterclaim and other
rights as if such amount had been applied as a prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.7. 
 Section 12.5 Amendments and
Waivers. 
 (a) Any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document may be amended or waived if, but only if, such
amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and/or the Swingline Lender are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent and/or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be); provided that: 
 (i) no such amendment or
waiver shall, unless signed by all the Lenders, (1) extend the Stated Maturity; (2) increase or decrease the Commitment, the Class A-R Commitment or the
Class A-T Commitment of any Lender or subject any Lender to any additional obligation; (3) change any Percentage Share applicable to any Lender or the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans,
the sharing of indemnities payable under Section 7.6, or the number of Lenders, which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section 12.5 or any other provision of this Agreement;
(4) release any Collateral except as provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or (5) alter the terms of Section 2.7, Section 2.8, Section 2.12, Section 6.4, Section 7.6, Section 9.1,
Section 10.1(c)(ii), Section 11.3 or this Section 12.5 (or any defined term as it is used therein) in a manner adverse to the interests of any Lender; 

  
 - 136 - 








 (ii) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all Lenders, change the
date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees or other amounts hereunder or for any reduction or termination of any Commitment of such Class or Classes; 

(iii) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Lender affected thereby, change the principal of or rate of
interest on any Loan held by any Lender or any fees, increased costs or indemnities payable for the account of any Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the rescission of interest accruing at the Post-Default Rate, which may
be rescinded by the Majority Lenders; 
 (iv) no amendment or waiver of any provision under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document that governs the rights and obligations of CP Lenders or their Conduit Support Providers (including this Section 12.5(a)(iv)) (other than amendments and waivers that apply generally to Lenders) or that specifically relates to CP
Conduits shall be effective without the written consent of each CP Lender; and 
 (v) no such amendment or waiver shall,
unless signed by all Affected Lenders and the Retention Provider, amend provisions relating to the Securitisation Regulations or the rights and obligations of the Retention Provider. 

(b) In connection with any proposed amendment or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document pursuant to this Section 12.5, either
(1) such proposed amendment or waiver will be effective only upon satisfaction of the Rating Condition or (2) if, in the Borrower’s reasonable determination, such proposed amendment or waiver does not have a reasonable likelihood of
being adverse to the interests of any Lender, then the Borrower shall, not later than ten Business Days prior to the execution of such proposed amendment or waiver, deliver to each of the Lenders a copy of such proposed amendment or waiver;
provided, in the case of the foregoing clause (2), if any Lender notifies the Borrower prior to execution of such proposed amendment or waiver that, based on its reasonable determination, such proposed amendment or waiver could adversely
affect the interests of any Lender, such proposed amendment or waiver will not be effective without the satisfaction of the Rating Condition; provided, further that no amendment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment to the Fee
Letter Agreement) shall increase the Commitment of any Lender or increase the Applicable Margin without satisfaction of the Rating Condition. 

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may agree to make any amendment to this Agreement
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 11.1; provided that the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator shall not be bound by any amendment to this Agreement which would (i) increase or materially change or
affect the duties or liabilities of, reduce, eliminate, limit or otherwise change any right or privilege of (including as a result of an effect on the amount or priority of any fees or other amounts payable to the Collateral Agent or the Collateral
Administrator), or adversely change the economic consequences to, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Administrator, (ii) expand or restrict the such party’s discretion or (iii) adversely affect the Collateral Agent or the
Collateral Administrator, unless such party consents in writing thereto. 
 (d) The Borrower shall, promptly following the execution of any
amendment, waiver or supplement to any Loan Document, provide copies thereof to each Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and DBRS. 

  
 - 137 - 








 Section 12.6 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders except as permitted by this Agreement.

 (b) (i) Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks, commercial paper conduits or other institutions (each, a
“Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans; provided that each such Participant represents in writing to such Lender that it (and each account for which it is acquiring such
participating interest) is both (x) a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act and (y) a Permitted Purchaser. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest
to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be given effect for purposes of
this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b). 
 (ii) In the
event that any Lender sells participations in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans hereunder, such Lender shall, acting solely for this purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a
register on which it enters the name and address of all Participants in the Commitments or Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Commitments or Loans which is the subject of the participation
(the “Participant Register”). A Commitment or Loan may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register. Any participation of such Commitment or Loan may be effected only by
the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered
form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(c) (i) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks, CP Conduits or other financial institutions (each, an
“Assignee”) all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed
by such Assignee and such transferor Lender, with (and subject to) the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, which consent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (1) such
assignment is in an amount which is at least $1,000,000 or a multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof (or the remainder of such Lender’s Loans or Commitments); and (2) no such consent shall be required in the case of an assignment that is
made (A) during the continuance of an Event of Default; (B) in the case of the Swingline Loans 

  
 - 138 - 








 
(x) on and after the Swingline Facility End Date and (y) prior to the Swingline Facility End Date if such Assignee is an Approved Lender (without giving effect to either proviso in the
definition of “Approved Lender”); (C) in the case of the Class A-R Loans, (x) after the end of the Class A-R Commitment Period and
(y) prior to the end of the Class A-R Commitment Period if such Assignee is an Approved Lender (without giving effect to either proviso in the definition of “Approved Lender”); (D) in the
case of the Class A-T Loans, after the Closing Date; or (E) by Natixis, any Affiliate of Natixis or any other CP Lender for which Natixis or an Affiliate is the Conduit Support Provider for a CP
Lender, to Natixis, any Affiliate of Natixis or a CP Conduit for which Natixis or an Affiliate is the Conduit Support Provider for a CP Lender. 

(ii) Upon execution, recordation in the Register and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such
transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee (and if the Assignee is a Conduit Assignee, any Related CP Issuer, if such Conduit Assignee does not itself issue
commercial paper) shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights, protections and obligations of a Lender with Commitments as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its
obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such
assignment in the amount of $2,500 (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent). Each Assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the relevant form or certification in accordance with Section 11.4(d), an
Administrative Questionnaire and any relevant KYC documentation. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement and its Note to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. Promptly upon being notified in writing of such transfer, the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower thereof. 
 (e) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Lender’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 11.3 or 11.4 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made by reason of the provisions of Section 11.2, 11.3(e) or 11.4 requiring such Lender
to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist at the time of the transfer and except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a change in law that occurs after the Assignee, Participant or other transferee acquired the applicable interest. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.4 (subject to the
requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 11.4(d) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 11.4(d) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)). 

(f) The Administrative Agent, acting as non-fiduciary agent (solely for this purpose) of the Borrower,
shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and shall establish and maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount (and stated
interest thereon) of the Loans owing to each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive evidence (absent manifest error) of the accuracy thereof, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or Note hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or Note


  
 - 139 - 








 
hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. If any assignment or transfer of all or any part of a Loan that is then evidenced by a
Note is made, such assignment or transfer shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the related Note, duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or transfer duly
executed by) the holder thereof, and thereupon one or more new Note(s) in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee(s) (and, if applicable, assignor) and the old Note shall be returned to the Borrower marked
“cancelled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. The Administrative Agent shall provide to the Collateral Agent
from time to time at the request of the Collateral Agent information related to the Lenders and Commitments. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, any Lender may at any time assign to another Lender all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and such assignee Lender shall assume such rights and
obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by such assignee Lender and such transferor Lender, without consent of any other party hereto so long as, with respect to the Revolving Loans), such assignee Lender is an Approved
Lender. 
 Section 12.7 Collateral; QP Status. Each of the Lenders represents to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, each of the other Lenders and the Borrower that (i) it (and each account for which it is acquiring a Loan or a Commitment) is a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act and
(ii) it in good faith (and in reliance on the accuracy of the representations contained in the first two sentences of Section 4.10) is not relying upon any Margin Stock as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit
provided for in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereunder intend that the advances made pursuant to this Agreement constitute loans and not securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Lenders represents to the
Administrative Agent, each of the other Lenders and the Borrower that it is either (A) an institutional “accredited investor” as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act
(or any entity in which all of the equity owners are entities described within such paragraphs) or (B) a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (any persons satisfying such criteria, a
“Permitted Purchaser”). 
 Section 12.8 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. 

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 (b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and any action for enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof may be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New
York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the
aforesaid courts and appellate courts from any thereof. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the hand delivery, or mailing of copies thereof by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to each party hereto at its respective address on the signature pages hereto. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to above and


  
 - 140 - 








 
hereby further irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of either Agent, any Lender or any holder of a Note to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the
Borrower in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 12.9 Marshalling; Recapture. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent any Lender receives any payment by or on behalf of the
Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower or its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount
so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred. 

Section 12.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements
and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts hereof signed by each of the parties hereto. Counterparts may be executed and
delivered via facsimile, electronic mail or other transmission method and may be executed by electronic signature (including, without limitation, any PDF file, .jpeg file, or any other electronic or image file, or any “electronic
signature” as defined under the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act, which includes any electronic signature provided using Orbit, Adobe Sign, DocuSign, or any
other similar platform identified by the Borrower and reasonably available at no undue burden or expense to the Agents) and any counterpart so delivered shall be valid, effective and legally binding as if such electronic signatures were handwritten
signatures and shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered for all purposes hereunder. The parties agree that this Agreement may be electronically signed and that such electronic signatures appearing on this Agreement are the same as
handwritten signatures for purposes of validity, enforceability and admissibility. 
 Section 12.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH
OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATOR, THE SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY, THE CUSTODIAN AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 Section 12.12 Survival. All indemnities set
forth herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any assignment pursuant to Section 12.6 and the making and repayment of the Loans hereunder. 

Section 12.13 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any domestic or
foreign branch office, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender. 

  
 - 141 - 








 Section 12.14 Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by the Borrower, the
Collateral Manager or any other Person against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or the affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any consequential or punitive damages in respect of
any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each
of the Borrower and the Collateral Manager hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

Section 12.15 Recourse; Non-Petition. 

(a) All obligations, covenants and agreements of Borrower contained in or evidenced by this Agreement, the Notes and any Loan Document shall be
fully recourse to the Borrower and each and every asset of Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant, or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Note or any Loan Document shall be had against
any officer, director, general partner, limited liability company manager, limited partner, member, agent or employee (solely by virtue of such capacity) of the Borrower (a “Non-Recourse
Party”) and no such Non-Recourse Party shall be personally liable for payment of the Loans or other amounts due in respect thereof (all such liability being expressly waived and released by each
Lender and the Agents). 
 (b) Each Lender and each Agent hereby agrees that it will not institute against the Borrower any proceeding
seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors’ rights, present a petition for the winding-up or
liquidation of the Borrower or seek the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for the Borrower or for all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower prior
to the date that is one year and one day (or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) after the payment in full of all Obligations and any securities issued by the Borrower that refinance any of the Obligations. In the event
that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to “non-petition” of the Borrower, the Borrower becomes a debtor in a bankruptcy case by the involuntary
petition of any other Person, the Borrower hereby covenants to contest any such petition to the fullest extent permitted by law. The obligations under this Section 12.15(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Obligations. 
 Section 12.16 Confidentiality. 

(a) Each of the Lenders and the Agents agrees that it shall maintain confidentiality with regard to nonpublic information concerning the
Borrower, the Collateral Loans, any Obligor, the Retention Provider or the Collateral Manager and obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that the Lenders and the Agents shall not be
precluded from making disclosure regarding such information: (i) to the Lenders’ and Agents’ counsel, accountants and other professional advisors (who are, in each case, subject to this confidentiality agreement); (ii) to
officers, directors, employees, examiners, agents and partners of each Lender and its Affiliates and the Agents and their Affiliates who need to know such information in accordance with customary practices for Lenders of such type (who are, in each
case, subject to this confidentiality agreement and the applicable Lender or Agent shall be responsible for any breach by such Person of these confidentiality provisions); (iii) in response to a subpoena or order of a court or governmental
agency or regulatory authority or as required by applicable law or in connection with enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) to any entity participating or considering participating in any credit made under this
Agreement, (provided, the Lenders and Agents shall require that any such entity agree in writing to be subject to this Section 12.16; however, Lenders and Agents shall have no duty to monitor any participating entity and shall have no
liability in the event that any participating entity violates this Section 12.16); (v) as required by law or legal process, GAAP or applicable regulation; (vi) as reasonably 

  
 - 142 - 








 
necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the extent the Person that receives such information agrees in writing to be subject to this
Section 12.16; (vii) to any Rating Agency then rating the Loans or any Conduit Rating Agency; (viii) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or other entity that regulates or oversees any Lender,
or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Lender’s investment portfolio; or (ix) to any Program Manager, Conduit Support Provider or administrator of a CP Lender or Affiliate thereof who
needs to know such information (provided that each such Person referred to in this clause (ix) agrees to be bound by the terms of this confidentiality agreement). In connection with enforcing its rights pursuant to this
Section 12.16, the Borrower shall be entitled to the equitable remedies of specific performance and injunctive relief against the Agents, any Lender or any subsequent party that agrees to be bound hereto which shall breach the confidentiality
provisions of this Section 12.16. Any Person that proposes to disclose any information pursuant to subclauses (iii) or (v) of this Section 12.16(a) shall, to the extent practical, (1) provide the Borrower and the Collateral
Manager with prompt written notice of such proposed disclosure, (2) reasonably cooperate with the Borrower or the Collateral Manager so that such Person may obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy with respect to the information
to be disclosed or otherwise obtain satisfactory assurances that such information will be treated as confidential and proprietary and (3) disclose only that information that is, in the opinion of counsel to such Person, legally required to be
disclosed. The foregoing clauses (1) through (3) shall not apply to any Agent to the extent that a disclosure is made by such Agent to any bank examiner, regulatory or self-regulatory authority in the course of such examiner’s or
authority’s routine examination or inspection of such Agent’s business or operations which does not specifically target the information to be disclosed. 

(b) Notwithstanding any contrary agreement or understanding, the Collateral Manager, the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders (and each of
their respective employees, representatives or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, only those transactions
contemplated by this Agreement) and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. The foregoing provision shall apply from the beginning of
discussions between the parties hereto. For this purpose, the tax treatment of a transaction is the purported or claimed U.S. tax treatment of the transaction under applicable U.S. federal, state or local law, and the tax structure of a transaction
is any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. tax treatment of the transaction under applicable U.S. federal, state or local law. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, each of the parties hereto acknowledges
and agrees that each CP Lender (or its Program Manager or its funding agent, as applicable) may post to a secured password-protected internet website maintained by such CP Lender (or its Program Manager or its funding agent, as applicable)
and required by any Conduit Rating Agency in connection with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act, the following information: (i) its Liquidity Facility or Credit Facility, (ii) a copy of this Agreement
(including any amendments hereto, but excluding the Schedules and Exhibits hereto), (iii) its monthly transaction surveillance reports (substantially in the form provided to the Borrower on or before the Closing Date), and (iv) such other
information as may be requested by such rating agency. 
 Section 12.17 Special Provisions Applicable to CP Lenders 

(a) Each of the parties hereto (each, a “Restricted Person”) hereby covenants and agrees that it will not institute against
any CP Lender, or encourage, cooperate with or join any other Person in instituting against any CP Lender, any proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other
similar law affecting 

  
 - 143 - 








 
creditors’ rights, present a petition for the winding up or liquidation of any CP Lender or seek the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver,
trustee, custodian or other similar official for any CP Lender or for all or substantially all of its assets prior to the date that is two years and a day (or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) after the last day on
which any Commercial Paper Notes shall have been outstanding. The obligations under this Section 12.17(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. 

(b) Provided that a Restricted Person has complied with Section 12.17(a), nothing in clause (a) above shall limit the right of such
Restricted Person to file any claim in or otherwise take any action with respect to any proceeding of the type described in clause (a) above that was instituted against any CP Lender by any person other than such Restricted Person. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligations of any CP Lender under this Agreement are solely the
corporate obligations of such CP Lender and, in the case of obligations of any CP Lender other than Commercial Paper Notes, shall be payable at such time as funds are received by or are available to such CP Lender in excess of funds
necessary to pay in full all outstanding Commercial Paper Notes or other short-term funding backing its Commercial Paper Notes and, to the extent funds are not available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not constitute a
claim against such CP Lender but shall continue to accrue. Each party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) of any such party shall be subordinated to the payment in full of all
Commercial Paper Notes and other short-term funding backing its Commercial Paper Notes. The provisions of this Section 12.17(c) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

(d) No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any CP Lender contained in this Agreement shall be had against any
incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, employee or agent of such CP Lender or any agent of such CP Lender or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or
equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of any such CP Lender individually, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach
to or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, employee or agent of such CP Lender or any agent thereof or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) or any of them under or by reason of any of the
obligations, covenants or agreements of such CP Lender contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by any CP Lender of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at
common law or at equity, or by statute, rule or regulation, of every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, employee or agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this Agreement;
provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person from any liability it might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions taken or omissions made by them. The provisions of this Section 12.17(d) shall survive termination
of this Agreement. 
 (e) Each CP Lender may act hereunder by and through its Program Manager, its administrator or its funding agent, as
applicable. 
 (f) Each of the parties hereto waives any right to set-off and to appropriate and
apply any and all deposits and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing thereby to or for the credit or the account of any CP Lender against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such CP Lender to such party under this
Agreement. 

  
 - 144 - 








 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each CP Lender may disclose to its
respective Conduit Support Providers, any Affiliates of any such party and governmental authorities having jurisdiction over such CP Lender, Conduit Support Provider, any Affiliate of such party and any Conduit Rating Agency (including its
professional advisors), the identities of (and other material information regarding) the Borrower, any other obligor on, or in respect of, a Loan made by such CP Lender, Collateral for such Loan and any of the terms and provisions of the Loan
Documents that it may deem necessary or advisable. 
 (h) No pledge and/or collateral assignment by any CP Lender to a Conduit Support
Provider of an interest in the rights of such CP Lender in any Loan made by such CP Lender and the Obligations shall constitute an assignment and/or assumption of such CP Lender’s obligations under this Agreement, such obligations in all cases
remaining with such CP Lender. Moreover, any such pledge and/or collateral assignment of the rights of such CP Lender shall be permitted hereunder without further action or consent and any such pledgee may foreclose on any such pledge and perfect an
assignment of such interest and enforce such CP Lender’s right hereunder notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement. 

Section 12.18 Direction of Collateral Agent. By executing this Agreement, each Lender hereby consents to the terms of this
Agreement and to the Collateral Agent’s, Custodian’s, Collateral Administrator’s and Securities Intermediary’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, and acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent, Custodian, Collateral
Administrator and Securities Intermediary shall be fully protected in relying upon the foregoing consent and direction and hereby releases each of the Collateral Agent, Custodian, Collateral Administrator, Securities Intermediary and its respective
officers, directors, agents, employees and shareholders, as applicable, from any liability for complying with such direction, except as a result of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent, Custodian, Collateral
Administrator or Securities Intermediary. 
 Section 12.19 Borrowings/Loans Made in the Ordinary Course of Business. The
Borrower and each Lender, each as to itself only, represents, warrants and covenants that each payment by the Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement will have been made (i) in payment of a debt incurred by the Borrower or a loan made by
such Lender, respectively, in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Borrower and each Lender and (ii) in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Borrower and each Lender. 

Section 12.20 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any parties to any Loan Document, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising
under any Loan Document, other than an Excluded Liability, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may
be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the effects of any
Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i) a reduction in
full or in part or cancellation of any such liability including, without limitation, a reduction in any accrued or unpaid interest in respect of such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial
Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such
liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

  
 - 145 - 








 (iii) the variation of the terms of any Loan Document to give effect to the
exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority. 
 Section 12.21 Acknowledgement Regarding Any
Supported QFCs. To the extent that this Agreement provides support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Interest Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each
such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable
notwithstanding that this Agreement and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding
under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing
such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such
interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special
Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default
Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and
agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 

(b) As used in Section 12.21(a), the following terms have the following meanings: 

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance
with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 
 “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered
entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a
“covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). 
 “Default
Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in
accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 

  
 - 146 - 








 Section 12.22 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the
PATRIOT Act notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. 
 Section 12.23
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable and this Agreement shall be
construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement, unless such continued effectiveness of this Agreement, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and intentions of the parties as expressed herein.
If any provision of this Agreement shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any provision of any of the other Loan Documents, then the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. 

ARTICLE XIII 
 ASSIGNMENT OF
COLLATERAL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND MASTER TRANSFER AGREEMENT 
 Section 13.1 Assignment of Collateral Management Agreement and
Master Transfer Agreement. 
 (a) The Borrower hereby acknowledges that its Grant pursuant to the Granting Clause hereof includes
all of the Borrower’s estate, right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral Management Agreement and the Master Transfer Agreement including (i) the right to give all notices, consents and releases thereunder, (ii) the
right to take any legal action upon the breach of an obligation of the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement or the Seller under the Master Transfer Agreement, including the commencement, conduct and consummation of
proceedings at law or in equity, (iii) the right to receive all notices, accountings, consents, releases and statements thereunder and (iv) the right to do any and all other things whatsoever that the Borrower is or may be entitled to do
thereunder; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Agents shall not have the authority to exercise any of the rights set forth in (i) through (iv) above or that may otherwise arise as a result of the Grant
until the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and such authority shall terminate at such time, if any, as such Event of Default is cured or waived (so long as the exercise of remedies has not commenced or such Event of Default has been
waived following the commencement of the exercise of remedies). 
 (b) The assignment made hereby is executed as collateral security, and the
execution and delivery hereby shall not in any way impair or diminish the obligations of the Borrower under the provisions of the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement or the other documents referred to in clause
(a) above, nor shall any of the obligations contained in the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement or such other documents be imposed on the Agents. 

(c) Upon the occurrence of the Stated Maturity (or, if earlier, the payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of all of the
Commitments), the payment of all amounts required to be paid pursuant to the Priority of Payments and the release of the Collateral from the lien of this Agreement, this assignment and all rights herein assigned to the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of 

  
 - 147 - 








 
the Lenders shall cease and terminate and all the estate, right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent in, to and under the Collateral Management Agreement, the Master Transfer Agreement and
the other documents referred to in this Section 13.1 shall revert to the Borrower and no further instrument or act shall be necessary to evidence such termination and reversion. 

(d) The Borrower represents that it has not executed any other assignment of the Collateral Management Agreement or the Master Transfer
Agreement. 
 (e) The Borrower agrees that this assignment is irrevocable until the Obligations have been repaid in full and all Commitments
have terminated, and that it will not take any action which is inconsistent with this assignment or make any other assignment inconsistent herewith. The Borrower will, from time to time, execute all instruments of further assurance and all such
supplemental instruments with respect to this assignment as may be necessary to continue and maintain the effectiveness of such assignment. 

(f) The Borrower hereby agrees, and hereby undertakes to obtain the agreement and consent of the Collateral Manager in the Collateral
Management Agreement and, as applicable, the applicable Seller in the Master Transfer Agreement, to the following: 
 (i) The
Collateral Manager shall consent to the provisions of this assignment and agree to perform any provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Collateral Manager subject to the terms of the Collateral Management Agreement. 

(ii) The Collateral Manager shall acknowledge that the Borrower is collaterally assigning all of its right, title and interest
in, to and under the Collateral Management Agreement to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Seller shall acknowledge that the Borrower is collaterally assigning all of its right, title and interest in, to and under
the Master Transfer Agreement to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in each case subject to the proviso in Section 13.1(a). 

(iii) The Collateral Manager shall deliver to the Agents copies of all notices, statements, communications and instruments
delivered or required to be delivered by the Collateral Manager to the Borrower pursuant to the Collateral Management Agreement and the Seller shall deliver to the Agents copies of all notices, statements communications and instruments delivered or
required to be delivered by the Seller to the Borrower pursuant to the Master Transfer Agreement. 
 (iv) Neither the
Borrower nor the Collateral Manager will enter into any agreement amending, modifying or terminating the Collateral Management Agreement without complying with the applicable terms thereof, and neither the Borrower nor the Seller will enter into any
agreement amending, modifying or terminating the Master Transfer Agreement without complying with the applicable terms thereof. 

(v) Except as otherwise set forth herein and therein (including pursuant to Sections 12 and 13 of the Collateral Management
Agreement), the Collateral Manager shall continue to serve as Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement notwithstanding that the Collateral Manager shall not have received amounts due it under the Collateral Management Agreement
because sufficient funds were not then available hereunder to pay such amounts in accordance with the Priority of Payments. The Collateral Manager agrees not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Borrower for the nonpayment of
the fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower to the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement 

  
 - 148 - 








 
until the payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of all of the Commitments and the expiration of a period equal to one year and a day, or, if longer, the applicable
preference period, following such payment. Nothing in this Section 13.1 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Collateral Manager (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned period in (A) any case or
Proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Borrower or (B) any involuntary insolvency Proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates or (ii) from commencing against the Borrower
or any of its properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceeding. 

(vi) Except with respect to transactions contemplated by the Collateral Management Agreement, if the Collateral Manager
determines that it or any of its Affiliates has a conflict of interest between the Lenders and any other account or portfolio for which the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates is serving as investment adviser which relates to any action to
be taken with respect to any Collateral, then the Collateral Manager will give written notice to the Agents, who shall promptly forward such notice to the relevant Lender, briefly describing such conflict and the action it proposes to take. The
provisions of this clause (vi) shall not apply to any transaction permitted by the terms of the Collateral Management Agreement.

 If any Collateral Loan does not have a DBRS Long Term Rating, the DBRS Risk Score for such Collateral Loan will be determined
as provided below: 
 (a) If a Credit Estimate has been obtained and has not expired, the DBRS Risk Score will be as set forth in the Credit
Estimate. 
 (b) If a Credit Estimate has not been obtained: 

(i) the DBRS Risk Score shall be the higher of the Row Weighted Average Risk Score and 38.0000 for the first 90 days from the
acquisition of such Collateral Loan; and 
 (ii) after 90 days from the acquisition of such Collateral Loan, unless such
Collateral Loan has received a Credit Estimate, the DBRS Risk Score shall be 77.4104. 
 (c) If a Credit Estimate has previously been
obtained but has expired: 
 (i) the DBRS Risk Score shall remain the same for the first 30 days past the expiration; 







 (ii) if a new Credit Estimate has not been obtained within 30 days, the DBRS Risk
Score shall be the higher of the DBRS Risk Score set forth in the expired Credit Estimate, and 48.2625; and 
 (iii) if a new
Credit Estimate has not been obtained within 90 days, the DBRS Risk Score shall be 77.4104; and 
 (d) If such Collateral Loan is a Defaulted
Loan, the DBRS Risk Score shall be 100.0000%. 







 SCHEDULE D 

Diversity Score Calculation 

The Diversity Score is calculated as follows: 

(a) An “Issuer Par Amount” is calculated for each issuer of a Collateral Loan, and is equal to the Aggregate Maximum Principal
Balance of all the Collateral Loans issued by that issuer and all affiliates. 
 (b) An “Average Par Amount” is calculated
by summing the Issuer Par Amounts for all issuers, and dividing by the number of issuers. 
 (c) An “Equivalent Unit Score”
is calculated for each issuer, and is equal to the lesser of (x) one and (y) the Issuer Par Amount for such issuer divided by the Average Par Amount. 

(d) An “Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score” is then calculated for each DBRS industry classification group, shown on
Schedule B, and is equal to the sum of the Equivalent Unit Scores for each issuer in such industry classification group. 
 (e) An
“Industry Diversity Score” is then established for each DBRS industry classification group, shown on Schedule B, by reference to the following table for the related Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score; provided that if
any Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score falls between any two such scores, the applicable Industry Diversity Score will be the lower of the two Industry Diversity Scores:

 (f) The Diversity Score is then calculated by summing each of the Industry Diversity Scores for each DBRS
industry classification group shown on Schedule B. 
 For purposes of calculating the Diversity Score, affiliated issuers in the same industry are deemed to
be a single issuer except as otherwise agreed to by DBRS. 







 SCHEDULE E 

DBRS Rating Procedure 
 The “DBRS
Rating” for an Obligor, Lender, Selling Institution or other Person (collectively referred to as the “Obligor” for purposes of this Schedule) means the DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor determined in accordance with
Part A of this Schedule or the DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor determined in accordance with Part B of this Schedule, in each case as the context requires. 

Part A: Long Term Ratings 
 The “DBRS Long
Term Rating” for an Obligor will, on any date, be the rating of such Obligor determined as provided below: 
  

	(1)	 if there is a DBRS public long term rating of such Obligor at such date, such DBRS public long term rating;



  

	(2)	 if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clause (1) above, but a
Moody’s Rating, S&P Rating and Fitch Rating (each, a “public long term rating”) are all available at such date, the DBRS Long Term Rating will be the DBRS Equivalent of such public long term rating remaining after
disregarding the highest and lowest such public long term ratings from such Rating Agencies. For this purpose, if more than one public long term rating has the same highest DBRS Equivalent or the same lowest DBRS Equivalent, then in each case one of
such public long term ratings shall be so disregarded; 


  

	(3)	 if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (2) above, but
public long term ratings of such Obligor by any two of Moody’s, Fitch and S&P are available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of the lower such public long term rating; and 



 

	(4)	 if a DBRS Long Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (3) above, but
a public long term rating of such Obligor by only one of Moody’s, Fitch or S&P is available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of such available public long term rating; 



provided that, for purposes of calculating the DBRS Long Term Rating, each applicable rating that is under review by DBRS with negative implication at
the time of calculation will be treated as having been downgraded by one rating subcategory. 
 If at any time a DBRS Long Term Rating for an Obligor cannot
be determined under clauses (1) through (4) above, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a DBRS Long Term Rating at such time. 
 Part B:
Short Term Ratings 
 The “DBRS Short Term Rating” for a Lender, Selling Institution or other Person (collectively referred to as
the “Obligor” for purposes of this definition) will, on any date, be the rating of such Obligor determined as provided below: 
  

	(1)	 if there is a DBRS public short term rating of such Obligor at such date, such DBRS public short term rating;











	(2)	 if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clause (1) above, but public short
term ratings of such Obligor by each of Moody’s, Fitch and S&P are all available at such date, the DBRS Short Term Rating will be the DBRS Equivalent of the public short term rating remaining after disregarding the highest and lowest public
short term ratings from such Rating Agencies. For this purpose, if more than one public short term rating has the same highest DBRS Equivalent or the same lowest DBRS Equivalent, then in each case one of such public short term ratings shall be so
disregarded; 


  

	(3)	 if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (2) above, but
public short term ratings of such Obligor by any two of Moody’s, Fitch and S&P are available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of the lower such short term rating; 



 

	(4)	 if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (3) above, but
a public short term rating of such Obligor by only one of Moody’s, Fitch or S&P is available at such date, the DBRS Equivalent of such available short term rating; and 



 

	(5)	 if a DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor cannot be determined under clauses (1) through (4) above,
then for purposes of this Agreement there shall be no DBRS Short Term Rating for such Obligor as at such date. 


 Part C: Other

 “Fitch Rating” means, for any Obligor at any time, the rating determined as
follows: 
  

	(i)	 if there is a publicly available issuer rating or senior unsecured rating by Fitch, such issuer rating, if no
issuer rating is available then the senior unsecured rating; and 


  

	(ii)	 if the rating is not available as defined in the first clause above, but there is a rating by Fitch on another
obligation of the same Obligor, then the rating will be as follows: 


  

	 	(a)	 if such rating is on a senior secured obligation, one subcategory below such rating; and 



 

	 	(b)	 if such rating in on a subordinate obligation, one subcategory above such rating. 



If a Fitch Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i) or (ii) above at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a Fitch
Rating at such time. 
 “Moody’s Rating” means, with respect to any Obligor as of any date of determination, the
rating determined in accordance with the following methodology: 
  

	(i)	 with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Loan that is a Senior Secured Loan (or an Obligor that is a Lender
or other Person), if such Obligor has a corporate family rating by Moody’s, then such corporate family rating; 


  

	(ii)	 with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Loan that is a Senior Secured Loan, if not determined pursuant to
clause (i) above, if such Collateral Loan is publicly rated by Moody’s, such public rating; and 


  

	(iii)	 with respect to an Obligor on a Collateral Loan, if not determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above,
(A) if such Obligor has one or more senior unsecured obligations publicly rated by Moody’s, then the Moody’s public rating on any such obligation (or, if such Obligor is an Obligor on a Collateral Loan that is a Senior Secured Loan,
the Moody’s rating that is one subcategory higher than the Moody’s public rating on any such senior unsecured obligation) as selected by the Collateral Manager in its sole discretion or, if no such rating is available, (B) if such
Collateral Loan is publicly rated by Moody’s, such public rating or, if no such rating is available, (C) if such Collateral Loan is a DIP Loan, with respect to any DIP Loan, one subcategory below the facility rating (whether public or
private) of such DIP Loan rated by Moody’s; 









 provided that, for purposes of calculating a Moody’s Rating, each applicable rating on credit watch
by Moody’s with negative implication at the time of calculation will be treated as having been downgraded by one rating subcategory, and each applicable rating with negative outlook by Moody’s at the time of calculation will be treated as
having been downgraded by one rating subcategory. 
 If a Moody’s Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above
at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have a Moody’s Rating at such time. 
 “S&P Rating” means,
with respect to any Obligor, as of any date of determination, the rating determined in accordance with the following methodology: 
  

	(i)	 (a) if there is an issuer credit rating of such Obligor by S&P as published by S&P, or the guarantor
which unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees such Collateral Loan pursuant to a form of guaranty approved by S&P, then the S&P Rating shall be such rating (regardless of whether there is a published rating by S&P on the Collateral
Loans of such Obligor held by the Borrower) or (b) if there is no issuer credit rating of the Obligor by S&P but (1) there is a senior secured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Obligor
shall be one sub-category below such rating; (2) if clause (1) above does not apply, but there is a senior unsecured rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, the S&P Rating of such
Obligor shall equal such rating; and (3) if neither clause (1) nor clause (2) above applies, but there is a subordinated rating on any obligation or security of the Obligor, then the S&P Rating of such Collateral Loan shall be one
sub-category above such rating if such rating is higher than “BB+”, and shall be two sub-categories above such rating if such rating is
“BB+” or lower; and 


  

	(ii)	 with respect to any Collateral Loan that is a DIP Loan, the S&P Rating thereof shall be the credit rating
assigned to such issue by S&P; 


 provided that, for purposes of the determination of the S&P Rating, if the applicable
rating assigned by S&P to an Obligor or its obligations is on “credit watch negative” by S&P, such rating will be treated as being one sub-category below such assigned rating. 

If an S&P Rating for an Obligor cannot be determined under clause (i) or (ii) above at any time, then such Obligor will be deemed not to have an
S&P Rating at such time.

created or will create over 50% (measured by total nominal amount) of all the Collateral Loans acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower, such proportion measured on the basis of the nominal value at each respective origination of all
the Collateral Loans that are expected to be held by the Borrower following the settlement of any such acquisition.” 
 3. The Retention Provider hereby
agrees and confirms for the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Affected Lender for so long as any Obligation remains outstanding and the Securitisation Regulations require: 

 

	 	a.	 that it has retained at all times since the Closing Date (after giving effect to the transactions pursuant to
the Closing Date Master Transfer Agreement), and irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes that it will continue to directly retain as originator for the purposes of the Securitisation Regulations (as in effect on the date hereof), on an ongoing
basis, a material net economic interest in the securitisation position comprised by the Loans and the membership interests in the Borrower which, in any event, shall not be less than 5% of the nominal value of the Collateral Loans and Eligible
Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds (or such lower amount, including 0%, as a result of amendment, repeal or otherwise if each of the Administrative Agent and each Affected Lender agrees in writing that such lower amount (i) is
required or permitted under the Securitisation Regulations (as in effect on the date hereof) and (ii) complies with its internal retention requirement policies, the “Retained Interest”) (such requirement, the “Retention
Requirement”); 


  

	 	b.	 that it will retain the Retained Interest in the form specified in paragraph 3(d) of Article 6 of each
Securitisation Regulation as in effect on the Closing Date in the form of its membership interests in the Borrower under the LLC Agreement, being the first loss tranche and having the same or a more severe risk profile than those transferred or sold
to investors, in a nominal amount at least equal to 5% of the nominal value of the Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds; 



 

	 	c.	 that its retention of the Retained Interest will be measured at the origination (being the occasion of each
origination or acquisition of a Collateral Loan or Eligible Investment that constitutes Principal Proceeds by the Borrower) and shall be maintained on an ongoing basis (which Retained Interest may be recalculated when the nominal value of the
Collateral Loans and Eligible Investments that constitute Principal Proceeds is reduced by means or repayments, prepayments, dispositions or otherwise); 


  

	 	d.	 that the Retained Interest shall not be subject to any credit risk mitigation or any short positions or any
other hedge, unless permitted by the Securitisation Regulations, and shall not be sold; 


  

	 	e.	 that it established the transaction contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;



  

	 	f.	 that it, either itself or through related entities (including the Borrower), directly or indirectly, was
involved or will be involved in negotiating the original agreements which created or will create over 50% (measured by total nominal amount) of all the Collateral Loans acquired (or committed to be acquired) by the Borrower, such percentage being
calculated in accordance 










	 	with clauses (g) and (h) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria” in the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any failure to comply with this requirement is not and shall not be an Event of
Default under and as defined in the Credit Agreement if cured (which may be by purchasing Collateral Loans in compliance with clauses (g) and (h) of the definition of “Eligibility Criteria”) within 30 days of receipt of notice or the
date on which a Senior Authorized Officer of the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of such failure to comply; 

  

	 	g.	 that in relation to every Collateral Loan that has been or will be sold or transferred to the Borrower by it,
that: 


  

	 	i.	 in its assessment based upon the information available to it and as an entity established outside the European
Union and the United Kingdom, the criteria applied in the original credit-granting for such Collateral Loan are as sound and well-defined as the criteria applied by it to non-securitised obligations; and



  

	 	ii.	 In its assessment, based on the information available to it and as an entity established outside the European
Union and the United Kingdom, it will, subject to the standard of care it applies with respect to the selection of assets held on its own balance sheet, use reasonable commercial efforts to not select Collateral Loans to be transferred by it to the
Borrower with the aim of rendering losses on such Collateral Loans transferred to the Borrower higher than the losses over the same period on comparable assets held on its balance sheet; 



 

	 	h.	 that it represents, as at the Closing Date, and will be deemed to represent on a continuous basis for so long
as any Obligation remains outstanding, that (as of the time of such representations or deemed representations): 


  

	 	i.	 it is not an entity that has been established or that operates for the sole purpose of securitizing exposures;



  

	 	ii.	 it has a business strategy and the capacity to meet payment obligations consistent with a broader business
enterprise and involving material support from capital, assets, fees or other income available to the Retention Provider, relying neither on the exposures being securitised by it, nor on any interests retained or proposed to be retained in
accordance with the Securitisation Regulations, as well as any corresponding income from such exposures and interests; and 


  

	 	iii.	 its responsible decision makers have the required experience to enable the Retention Provider to pursue its
established business strategy, as well as an adequate corporate governance arrangement; 


  

	 	i.	 that it will confirm in writing its continued compliance with the requirements set forth in clauses
(a) through (i) above to the Borrower (who shall furnish such information to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Affected Lender): 


  

	 	i.	 on a monthly basis pursuant to Section 5.1(l)(iii) of the Credit Agreement (concurrent with the delivery
of each Collateral Report); 


  

	 	ii.	 upon any written request therefor by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Affected Lender delivered as a result
of a material change in (x) the performance of the Loans, (y) the risk characteristics of the transaction, or (z) the Collateral Loans and/or the Eligible Investments from time to time, pursuant to Section 5.1(l)(iv) of the Credit
Agreement; and 










	 	iii.	 promptly upon the Borrower and/or the Retention Provider becoming aware of any material breach of the
obligations included in any Loan Document, pursuant to Section 5.1(l)(v) of the Credit Agreement; 


  

	 	j.	 that it will, promptly following a request by any Affected Lender, provide a refreshed letter in substantially
the form of this letter in connection with a material amendment of any Loan Document or any increase in the Commitments after the Closing Date, in each case where the Borrower has received a request for the same from an Affected Lender pursuant to
Section 5.1(l)(i) of the Credit Agreement; 


  

	 	k.	 that it will, promptly on becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, provide a written notice to the Borrower of
any failure to satisfy the Retention Requirement at any time pursuant to Section 5.1(l)(ii) of the Credit Agreement; and 


  

	 	l.	 that it will, promptly following a request by an Affected Lender, provide such additional information as such
Affected Lender may reasonably request in order for such Affected Lender to comply with the Securitisation Regulations which is either in the possession of the Retention Provider or can be obtained at no material cost to the Retention Provider.



 4. The Retention Provider hereby agrees and confirms that it has at all times prior to the date hereof remained the 100% owner of all
the membership interests in the Borrower under the LLC Agreement. 
 5. As used in this letter, (a) the terms “material net economic
interest”, “originator”, “securitisation position”, “ongoing basis” and “nominal value” shall have the meanings given thereto in the Securitisation Regulations and (b) the terms “Affected
Lender” and “ Securitisation Regulations” shall have the meanings given thereto in the Credit Agreement. 
 6. This letter shall not be
assignable by the Retention Provider without the prior written consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Affected Lender. This letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing
signed by each of the Retention Provider, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Affected Lender. This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall
constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This letter supersedes all prior
understandings, whether written or oral, between us with respect to the matters set forth herein. 
 7. The Retention Provider hereby agrees and consents to,
and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by, the provisions set forth in Section 12.20 of the Credit Agreement. 
 8. THIS LETTER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each of the parties hereto and, by its acceptance hereof, each addressee of this letter hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State
court or, to the extent 







 permitted by law, in such Federal court, (b) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any New York State court or in any such
Federal court and (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

9. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY
PARTY RELATED TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS LETTER.
