Custodian) by 1:00 p.m. (New York City Time) (1) instructions to repay such Advances Outstanding and (2) funds sufficient to repay such Advances Outstanding together with all accrued Interest, any Breakage Costs and any Hedge Breakage
Costs, but only to the extent such accrued Interest, Breakage Costs and/or Hedge Breakage Costs are requested with such repayment by the applicable Lender or Hedge Counterparty; provided that, the Advances Outstanding will not be repaid
unless sufficient funds have been remitted to pay all such amounts in the succeeding sentence in full. The Administrative Agent shall apply amounts received from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) to the pro rata
repayment of the Advances Outstanding, to the payment of accrued Interest on the amount of the Advances Outstanding to be repaid and to the payment of any Breakage Costs and Hedge Breakage Costs, provided, that no such repayment shall be
given effect unless the Borrower had complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring that one or more Hedge Transactions be terminated in whole or in part as a result of any such repayment of the Advances Outstanding and Borrower has paid
all Hedge Breakage Costs and any other payments owing to the Hedge Counterparty. Any amount so repaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed during the Revolving Period. Any Repayment Notice relating to any repayment pursuant
to this Section 2.3(a) shall be irrevocable. Upon receipt of any notice or instructions from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.3(a), the Administrative Agent will provide notification to the Lenders with respect
thereto. 
 (b) Unless sooner prepaid pursuant to the terms hereof, the Advances Outstanding shall be repaid in full on the Termination Date
or on such later date as is agreed to in writing by the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. 

(c) The Borrower shall be entitled at its option, at any time (i) within the final twelve months of the Revolving Period but prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default, to reduce in part the portion of the Facility Amount that exceeds the sum of the Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest and Breakage Costs and (ii) following the Revolving Period but prior to the occurrence of
an Event of Default, to terminate the Facility Amount in whole or reduce in part the portion of the Facility Amount that exceeds the sum of the Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest and Breakage Costs; provided that (i) the Borrower
shall give at least five (5) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which will provide notification to the Lenders with respect thereto) of such termination or reduction in the 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-56-	  	














 form of Exhibit A-2; and (ii) any partial reduction of the Facility Amount shall be in an amount
equal to $5,000,000.00 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (other than any such partial reduction of the Facility Amount which is funded solely with proceeds from the repayment of a Revolving Loan) and the Facility Amount shall
not be reduced below $50,000,000.00. Any request for a reduction or termination pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) shall be irrevocable. The Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share (prior to
giving effect to any reduction of Commitments hereunder) of the aggregate amount of any reduction under this Section 2.3(c). For the avoidance of doubt, following the Revolving Period, the Facility Amount shall be deemed to equal the sum
of Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest and Breakage Costs for purposes of this clause (c). 
 (d) Any termination or reduction (whether in
whole or in part) of the Facility Amount pursuant to clause (c) above, shall be accompanied by (i) repayment of all of the Advances made prior to such prepayment date and still outstanding, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on all
such Advances to be prepaid on the applicable prepayment date, plus (iii) the Prepayment Fee (if applicable), plus, (iv) any unpaid fees or expenses required to be paid by Borrower under this Agreement and all other unpaid Obligations
(other than indemnity obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents that are not then due and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending) in relation to such Obligations to be prepaid on the
prepayment date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Prepayment Fee shall be applicable to any termination or reduction of the Facility Amount that occurs, in violation of clause (c) above, prior to the end of the Revolving Period. 

Section 2.4 Determination of Interest. 

The Administrative Agent shall determine the Interest (including unpaid Interest related thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment
Date) to be paid by the Borrower on each Payment Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Investment Manager thereof on the third Business Day prior to such Payment Date. 

Section 2.5 Notations on Notes. 

Each Lender is hereby authorized to enter on a schedule attached to the Note with respect to such Lender, as applicable, a notation (which may
be computer generated) or to otherwise record in its internal books and records or computer system with respect to each Advance under the Note made by the applicable Lender of (a) the date and principal amount thereof and (b) each payment
and repayment of principal thereof. Any such recordation shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the Advances Outstanding, as applicable, under each Note. The failure of any Lender to make any such notation on the schedule
attached to the applicable Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms set forth herein. 

Section 2.6 Reduction of Borrowing Base Deficiency. 

Any Borrowing Base Deficiency may be reduced to zero by the Borrower taking one or more of the following actions: 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-57-	  	














 (i) posting cash collateral in Dollars to the Principal Collection Account;

 (ii) repaying Advances Outstanding in accordance with Section 2.3(a); 

(iii) posting additional Eligible Loans as Collateral; provided that the amount by which the Borrowing Base Deficiency
shall be reduced pursuant to any such additional Eligible Loans shall be the Adjusted Borrowing Value of such Eligible Loans; or 

(iv) any transaction whereby Borrower agrees to sell, transfer or contribute Loans pledged as Collateral hereunder in an
aggregate amount equivalent to reduce such Borrowing Base Deficiency to zero; provided, that, (a) the Administrative Agent shall have consented, in writing, to such sale of Loans in its sole discretion; (b) Borrower shall deposit
100% of the cash proceeds thereof (net of reasonable transaction costs and expenses and Taxes, if any) to the Principal Collection Account; (c) Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent with respect to such sale, a copy of the purchase
agreement, any additional information reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, and a certificate from an officer of Borrower representing that (i) each of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in or pursuant to the Loan
Documents shall be accurate in all material respects before and after giving effect to such sale (except for those representations and warranties (x) made as of a specific date or (y) as are qualified by materiality, a Material Adverse
Effect or any similar qualifier, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects), (ii) Borrower is in compliance with all covenants, agreements and obligations under the Loan Documents, and (iii) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred or be continuing or would exist after giving effect to the requested sale on such date, (d) all Loans selected to be sold by Borrower from all other similar Loans originated or owned by the Borrower shall, at all
times, be selected with no intention to select Loans, the sale of which would be more adverse to Administrative Agent or Lenders than the sale of those similar Loans. 

Section 2.7 Settlement Procedures. 

(a) On each Payment Date, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Investment Manager shall direct the Collateral
Custodian (which direction shall be deemed given upon receipt by the Collateral Custodian of the related Reporting Date Report) to pay pursuant to the latest Reporting Date Report (and the Collateral Custodian shall make payment from the Interest

effect to such acquisition or issuance, the Borrower shall deposit an amount equal to the Required Funding Amount with respect to such Delayed Draw Loan or Revolving Loan, as applicable, into the Unfunded Exposure Account. Subject to the
satisfaction of the applicable Withdrawal Conditions, amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account may be withdrawn by the Borrower (x) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Revolving Loan or Delayed Draw Loan or

(1) with respect to any such withdrawal made for the purpose set forth in clause (x) that are required to be funded by the
Borrower, after giving effect to such withdrawal, no Borrowing Base Deficiency exists; and 
 (2) with respect to any such
withdrawal made for the purpose set forth in clause (x) or (y), after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is equal to or greater than the aggregate Required Funding Amount with
respect to all Loans included in the Collateral.

Delayed Draw Loan, along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, shall be forwarded by the Borrower to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) along with an instruction to the Collateral Custodian to withdraw
the applicable amount from the Unfunded Exposure Account and a certification that the conditions to fund such draw are satisfied, and the Collateral Custodian shall fund such draw request in accordance with such instructions from the Borrower. 

(iii) If the Borrower shall receive any Principal Collections from an Obligor with respect to a Revolving Loan and, as of the
date of such receipt (and after taking into account such repayment), the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is less than the aggregate Required Funding Amount with respect to all Loans included in the Collateral (the amount
of such shortfall, in each case, the “Unfunded Exposure Shortfall”), the Collateral Custodian shall deposit into the Unfunded Exposure Account an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the lesser of (a) the aggregate
amount of such Principal Collections and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Shortfall as directed by the Borrower (or Investment Manager on its behalf).

by it to the Borrower shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract (including by the Underlying Instrument) or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, be applied as a collection of a
payment by such Obligor (starting with the oldest such outstanding payment due) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor. 

Section 2.10 Payments, Computations, Etc. 

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Borrower or the Investment Manager to the
Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City Time) on the day when due in lawful money of the United States in immediately available
funds and any amount not received before such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Borrower or the Investment Manager, as applicable, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Secured Parties interest on all amounts
not paid or deposited when due hereunder at the Interest Rate applicable during an Event of Default, payable on demand; provided that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Such interest
shall be for the account of the applicable Secured Party. All computations of interest and other fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days (other than calculations with respect to the Base Rate, which shall be based
on a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days elapsed. 
 (b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be
stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of Interest or any fee payable
hereunder, as the case may be. To the extent that Available Funds are insufficient on any Payment Date to satisfy the full amount of any Increased Costs pursuant to Section 2.12, such unpaid amounts shall remain due and owing and shall
accrue interest as provided in Section 2.10(a) until repaid in full. 
 (c) If any Advance requested by the Borrower is not
effectuated as a result of the Borrower’s actions or failure to fulfill any condition under Section 3.2, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall indemnify the applicable Lender against any reasonable
loss, cost or expense incurred by the applicable Lender, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the applicable Lender to fund or maintain
such Advance. 
 (d) If at any time after the Closing Date, the Advances outstanding hereunder are not allocated among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, the Lenders agree to make such purchases and sales of interests in the Advances outstanding between themselves so that each Lender is then holding its relevant Pro Rata Share of Advances


  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-65-	  	














 
Outstanding based on their Commitments at such time (such purchases and sales shall be arranged through the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees to execute such further instruments
and documents, if any, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith), with all subsequent extensions of credit under this Agreement to be made in accordance with the respective Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders from time
to time party to this Agreement as provided herein. 
 (e) If the Administrative Agent disagrees with the computation of any amounts to be
paid or deposited by the Borrower or the Investment Manager under Section 2.7 or Section 2.8 or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, or upon its respective instructions, it shall so notify the Borrower, the Investment
Manager and the Collateral Custodian in writing and in reasonable detail to identify the specific disagreement. If such disagreement cannot be resolved within two (2) Business Days, the determination of the Administrative Agent as to such
amounts shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto absent manifest error. In the event the Collateral Custodian receives instructions from the Investment Manager or the Borrower which conflict with any instructions received by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall rely on and follow the instructions given by the Administrative Agent. 

Section 2.11 Fees.

requirements) in or in the interpretation of any Applicable Law or (ii) the compliance by an Indemnified Party with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall
(a) subject an Indemnified Party to any Tax or increased Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender in respect thereof with respect to its interest in the Collateral, or
any right or obligation to make Advances hereunder, or on any payment made hereunder, (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the

Party or (c) impose any other condition affecting the ownership interest in the Collateral conveyed to the Secured Parties hereunder or any Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, the result of which
is to increase the cost to any Indemnified Party or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Indemnified Party under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document, then on the Payment Date following demand by such
Indemnified Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party for
such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.

law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request or (ii) compliance by any Indemnified Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or agency (whether or not
having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by an Indemnified Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Indemnified Party
as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or arising in connection herewith to a level below that which any such Indemnified Party could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of
such Indemnified Party with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Indemnified Party to be material, then from time to time, on the Payment Date following demand by such Indemnified Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a
statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party for such reduction; provided that notwithstanding
anything in this Section 2.12(b) to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all
requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case
pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “change in law” for the purposes of clause (i) above, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. If the issuance of any amendment or supplement to Interpretation
No. 46 or to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any other change in accounting standards, including GAAP, or the issuance of any other pronouncement, release or
interpretation, causes or requires the consolidation of all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of the Related Fund, the Borrower or any Secured Party with the assets and liabilities of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or shall
otherwise impose any loss, cost, expense, reduction of return on capital or other loss, such event shall constitute a circumstance on which such Indemnified Party may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 2.12. 

(c) If as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12, any
Indemnified Party is required to compensate a bank or other financial institution providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such Indemnified Party in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of
Advances hereunder, then within twenty-two (22) days after demand by such Indemnified Party, the Borrower shall pay to such Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any
amounts payable or paid by it. 
 (d) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.12, the Indemnified Party may use
any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any Indemnified Party making a claim under this Section 2.12 shall submit to the Investment Manager a written description as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the
calculation thereof, which written description shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) [Reserved].

 (f) Failure or delay on the part of any Indemnified Party to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Indemnified Party’s right to demand or receive such compensation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.12, the Borrower shall not be required
to compensate an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any amounts incurred more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Indemnified Party notifies the Borrower of such Indemnified Party’s intention to
claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six (6) month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. 

(g) Each Lender agrees that it will take such commercially reasonable actions as the Borrower may reasonably request that will avoid the need
to pay, or reduce the amount of, any increased amounts referred to in this Section 2.12 or Section 2.13; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to take any actions that would, in the reasonable opinion of such
Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender. In no event will Borrower be responsible for increased amounts referred to in this Section 2.12 which relates to any other entities to which any Lender provides financing. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall the Lender seek reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 unless it is charging, in its capacity as lender thereto, similar amounts to all other
special purpose entity borrowers that intend to acquire corporate credit assets in similar corporate credit financing transactions. 
 (h)
The payment of amounts under this Section 2.12 shall be on an after-Tax basis. 
 Section 2.13 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents to which the
Borrower is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties,
interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by
law. If any Withholding Agent shall be required under any applicable requirement of law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents to any
Secured Party (including for purposes of Section 2.12 and this Section 2.13, any assignee, successor, or participant), (i) then the applicable Withholding Agent shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect
of Taxes, (ii) such Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any requirement of law, and (iii) the sum
payable by Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Withholding Agent has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this
Section 2.13(a)) such Secured Party receives on the date on which the related payment is due an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes
of this Agreement “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than (A) Taxes that are imposed on a Secured Party’s overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-68-	  	














 and branch profits taxes) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Secured Party is organized or, in
the case of a Lender, of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed solely as a result of such Secured Party having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under,
or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes), (B) Taxes imposed under FATCA and (C) in the case of a Secured Party that is not a “United States
person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, any U.S. federal withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such person at the time such person becomes a party hereto (or designates a new lending office) or is
attributable to such person’s failure or inability (other than as a result of a change in law) to comply with Section 2.13(e), except to the extent that such person (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation
of a new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to Section 2.13(a). 

(b) In addition, Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or
similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each
Secured Party for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13(c) imposed on or
paid by such Secured Party or any direct or indirect owner of any Secured Party and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by Borrower provided for in
this Section 2.13(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by the Borrower under the indemnity
set forth in this Section 2.13(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the applicable Secured Party makes written demand therefor; provided, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make a payment
pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) in respect of penalties, additions to Tax, interest and expenses attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, if (i) such penalties, additions to Tax, interest and reasonable expenses are
attributable to the failure of the Secured Party to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority amounts received by it from the Borrower in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such
amount from the Borrower or (ii) such penalties, additions to Tax, interest and reasonable expenses are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party. 

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Borrower (or any Person making such payment on behalf of Borrower)
shall furnish to the applicable Secured Party for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Secured Party.

 (e) For purposes of this Section 2.13(e), the terms “United States”
and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code. Each Secured Party (including any assignee, successor or participant) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Borrower the following properly
completed and duly executed documents: 
 (i) in the case of a Secured Party that is an individual, (x) a complete and
executed IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I (a “Section 2.13 Certificate”) or (y) a complete and executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor forms
thereto); or 
 (ii) in the case of a Secured Party that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof,
or the District of Columbia, a complete and executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or 
 (iii) in the case
of a Secured Party that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed IRS Form
W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 2.13 Certificate; or 
 (iv) in the case of a Secured Party that
(A) is not the beneficial owner, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all
required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 2.13 Certificate, and (y) without duplication, the documents that would be provided by each such beneficial owner pursuant to this Section 2.13(e) if such beneficial
owner were a Secured Party, provided, however, that no such documents will be required with respect to a beneficial owner to the extent the actual Secured Party is determined to be in compliance with the requirements for certification
on behalf of its beneficial owner as may be provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, or the requirements of this clause (iv) are otherwise determined to be unnecessary, all such determinations under this clause (iv) to be made in
the sole discretion of Borrower, provided, however, that the Secured Party shall be provided an opportunity to establish such compliance as reasonable. 

Each Secured Party agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect,
it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so. If the Secured Party provides a form pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) above and the form provided by
the Secured Party at the time such Secured Party first becomes a party to this Agreement or, with respect to a grant of a participation, the effective date thereof, indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero,
withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than “Non-Excluded Taxes” (“Excluded Taxes”) and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until such Secured Party provides the appropriate form
certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date a Person becomes an assignee, successor or participant to
this Agreement, the Secured Party transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 2.13, then the 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-70-	  	














 Secured Party assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts
to the extent (and only to the extent), that the Secured Party transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non-Excluded Taxes, and the Secured Party assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to additional
indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes. 
 (f) For any period with respect to which the
applicable Secured Party has failed to provide Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) of this Section 2.13 (other than if such failure is due to a change in any requirement of
law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided), such Secured Party shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts
under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.13 with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Secured Party become subject to
Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, Borrower shall take such steps as such Secured Party shall reasonably request, to assist such Secured Party in recovering such
Non-Excluded Taxes. 
 (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations
of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Nothing contained in Section 2.12 or this Section 2.13 shall require any Secured
Party to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary. 
 (h) If a payment
made to a Lender under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of
FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by law and as reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent or the Borrower, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the
Borrower as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent or the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and the amount, if any, to
deduct and withhold from such payment. Thereafter, each such Lender shall provide additional documentation (i) to the extent documentation previously provided has become inaccurate or invalid or has otherwise ceased to be effective or
(ii) as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(i) If any Secured Party determines, in its good faith judgment, that it has received or realized a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to
which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13 or any reduction of its Tax liabilities or otherwise recovered any amount that is attributable
to any deduction or withholding or payment of Taxes with respect to which the Borrower has paid any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall pay to the 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-71-	  	














 Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Secured Party, as the case may be, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Secured Party, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest
or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Secured Party in the event such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require such Secured
Party 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. 

Section 2.14 Reinvestment; Discretionary Sales, Substitutions and Repurchases of Loans. 

(a) Reinvestment. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth as certified in writing to the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Custodian, prior to the Facility Maturity Date, the Borrower may withdraw funds on deposit in the Principal Collection Account for the following purposes: 

(i) to reinvest such funds in Additional Loans to be pledged hereunder (a “Reinvestment”), so long as
(1) all applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied and (2) each Additional Loan acquired by the Borrower in connection with such reinvestment shall be an Eligible Loan; or 

(ii) to make payments in respect of the Advances Outstanding at such time in accordance with and subject to the terms of
Section 2.3. 
 Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.14(a) (as certified by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian), the Collateral Custodian will release funds from the Principal Collection Account to the Borrower in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (A) the amount requested by the
Borrower and (B) the amount on deposit in the Principal Collection Account on such day. 
 (b) Substitutions. The Borrower may,
with the consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and subject to clauses (e) and (f) below, replace any Loan with an Additional Loan (each such sale and reinvestment, a “Substitution”) so long as
(i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, immediately after giving effect to such Substitution, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, (ii) each substitute Additional Loan acquired by the Borrower in
connection with a Substitution shall be an Eligible Loan, (iii) all applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied with respect to each Additional Loan to be acquired by the Borrower in connection with
such Substitution and (iv) immediately after giving effect to such Substitution, there shall not exist a Borrowing Base Deficiency; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 3.2, in the
event a Borrowing Base Deficiency shall have existed immediately prior to giving effect to such Substitution, the Borrower may effect a Substitution so long as, immediately after giving effect to such Substitution and any other sale or transfer
substantially contemporaneous therewith, the Borrowing Base Deficiency is reduced and the Assigned Value of any Additional Loan shall be set by Administrative Agent in connection with such Substitution.

		  	-72-	  	














 (c) Discretionary Sales. Upon not less than one (1) Business Day prior written
notice to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Custodian), the Borrower shall be permitted, subject to clauses (e) and (f) below, to sell Loans (or portions thereof), including any sale contemplated by
Section 2.6(iv) hereof, (each, a “Discretionary Sale”) so long as (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, immediately after giving effect to such Discretionary Sale, no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred; (ii) notwithstanding anything set forth below in Section 2.14, immediately after giving effect to such Discretionary Sale, (a) there shall not exist a Borrowing Base Deficiency (provided that
(1) in connection with a Term Securitization, such requirement shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to the contemplated Discretionary Sale immediately prior to the pricing of such Term Securitization, and (2) such requirement shall
not apply with respect to a Discretionary Sale contemplated by Section 2.6(iv) hereof) (b) [Reserved] and (c) the Advances Outstanding as of such date shall not exceed the Availability (provided that (1) in connection with
a Term Securitization, such requirement shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to the contemplated Discretionary Sale immediately prior to the pricing of such Term Securitization, and (2) such requirement shall not apply with respect to a
Discretionary Sale contemplated by Section 2.6(iv) hereof; and (iii) in the case of any Discretionary Sale in connection with a Term Securitization (other than a Term Securitization that results in the termination in full of this
Agreement), the Administrative Agent shall have consented in writing to such Discretionary Sale in its sole discretion prior to the pricing date of such Term Securitization (which consent shall be irrevocable following such pricing date). 

(d) Repurchase or Substitution of Warranty Loans. Not later than five (5) Business Days following the earlier of (i) knowledge
by the Borrower or the Investment Manager that any Loan constitutes a Warranty Loan or (ii) receipt by the Borrower from the Administrative Agent of written notice thereof, the Borrower shall either: 

(i) make a deposit to the Collection Account in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the sum of (A) the
Adjusted Borrowing Value of such Loan at such time multiplied by the Advance Rate applicable to such Loan, (B) any expenses or fees with respect to such Loan (including, but not limited to, any Hedge Breakage Costs owed to the Hedge
Counterparty for any termination of one or more Hedge Transactions) and (C) costs and damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or by any Lender in connection with any violation by such Loan of any Applicable Law (a notification regarding
the amount of such expenses or fees to be provided by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to determine whether the amount so deposited is sufficient to satisfy the foregoing
requirements; or 
 (ii) substitute for such Warranty Loan a substitute Eligible Loan, provided that all requirements
with respect to Substitutions set forth in this Section 2.14 are satisfied. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-73-	  	














 Upon receipt of written certification from the Borrower certifying to the confirmation of
the deposit of the amounts set forth in Section 2.14(d)(i) into the Collection Account or the delivery by the Borrower of a substitute Eligible Loan for each Warranty Loan (the date of such confirmation or delivery, the “Release
Date”), such Warranty Loan and related Underlying Assets shall be removed from the Collateral and, as applicable, the substitute Eligible Loan and related Underlying Assets shall be included in the Collateral. On the Release Date of each
Warranty Loan, the Collateral Custodian, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to release to the Borrower, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest and
any Lien of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in, to and under the Warranty Loan and any related Underlying Assets and all future monies due or to become due with respect thereto. 

(e) Conditions to Sales, Substitutions and Repurchases. Any Discretionary Sale or sale pursuant to a Substitution effected pursuant to
Section 2.14 shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) the Borrower shall deliver
a Borrowing Base Certificate to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to Collateral Custodian); 
 (ii) the Borrower shall
deliver a list of all Loans (or portions thereof) to be sold or substituted to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to Collateral Custodian); 

(iii) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and Collateral Custodian of any amount to be deposited into the
Collection Account in connection with any sale or substitution; 
 (iv) as certified in writing to the Administrative Agent
(with a copy to Collateral Custodian) by the Borrower, the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1 and 4.2 hereof shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects (except for such representations and
warranties as are qualified by materiality, a Material Adverse Effect or any similar qualifier, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) following any sale or substitution, except to the extent any such representation or
warranty relates to an earlier date; 
 (v) any repayment of Advances Outstanding in connection with any sale or substitution
of Loans hereunder shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.3; 
 (vi) as certified in writing
to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any Discretionary Sale or sale in connection with a Substitution shall be made by the Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, to an unaffiliated third party purchaser in a transaction
(1) reflecting arms-length market terms and (2) in which the Borrower makes no representations, warranties or covenants and provides no indemnification for the benefit of any other party to such sale (other than that the Borrower has good
title thereto, free and clear of all Liens and has the right to sell the related Loan); provided that the Borrower may make a Discretionary Sale or sale in

		  	-74-	  	














 
connection with a Substitution to an Affiliate of the Borrower with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided, further, that the
price received by the Borrower in connection with a Discretionary Sale to the Related Fund (other than in connection with a Term Securitization or a Discretionary Sale to another fund or entity managed by the Investment Manager or an Affiliate of
the Investment Manager) shall be equal to (A) 100% of the outstanding principal balance of the related Loan minus the amount of any closing fee for such Loan that is not retained by the Borrower, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if
such Loan is not a Defaulted Loan, or (B) an amount not less than the fair market value thereof, if such Loan is a Defaulted Loan; 

(vii) (a) with respect to any Discretionary Sale of an Eligible Loan (other than any Discretionary Sale of an Eligible
Loan in connection with a Term Securitization) at a cash value that is less than the par value of such Eligible Loan minus the amount of any closing fee for such Eligible Loan that is not retained by the Borrower, the written consent of the
Administrative Agent shall have been obtained, provided, that prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, no such consent shall be required with respect to the Discretionary Sale of any Eligible Loan for which
(A) the entire principal amount thereof is excluded from the Borrowing Base as a result of the application of the Excess Concentration Amount or (B) the Assigned Value is 0% and (b) with respect to any Discretionary Sale of an
Eligible Loan in connection with a Term Securitization or to another fund or entity managed by the Investment Manager or an Affiliate of the Investment Manager the purchase price received in cash shall equal the product of (1) the Adjusted
Borrowing Value of such Eligible Loan multiplied by (2) the Advance Rate applicable to such Eligible Loan (and the difference between the cash purchase price for such Eligible Loan and the fair market value of such Eligible Loan shall be
treated as a distribution to the Related Fund); and 
 (viii) the Borrower and Investment Manager (on behalf of the Borrower)
shall pay an amount equal to all Breakage Costs and Hedge Breakage Costs and other accrued and unpaid costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Hedge Counterparty and the
Collateral Custodian in connection with any such sale, substitution or repurchase (including, but not limited to, expenses incurred in connection with the release of the Lien of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and any other
party having an interest in the Loan in connection with such sale, substitution or repurchase). 
 (f) Limitations on Sales, Substitutions
and Repurchases. 
 The aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Loans (other than Warranty Loans that (x) that fail to
satisfy any criteria set forth in clause (iii) of the definition of “Eligible Loan” as of the date of acquisition of such Loan, (y) that fail to satisfy the criteria set forth in clause (iii)(j)(ii) of the definition of
“Eligible Loan” as of the date of determination or (z) with respect to which the Borrower had failed to deliver the Required Loan Documents described in Section 3.2(i) within the time periods set forth therein) that were
acquired By the Borrower from the Related Fund or an Affiliate which are transferred by the Borrower to the Related Fund or an Affiliate thereof in connection

with a Substitution, a Discretionary Sale (other than a Discretionary Sale in connection with a Term Securitization) or the transfer to the Related Fund pursuant to a dividend shall not exceed in
the aggregate (A) in the case of such Loans that are not Defaulted Loans, ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Loans acquired from the Related Fund or an Affiliate and owned by the Borrower at any time since the
Closing Date and (B) in the case of such Loans that are Defaulted Loans, ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Loans acquired from the Related Fund or an Affiliate and owned by the Borrower at any time since the
Closing Date. 
 (g) Notices to Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with copies of any notices and, if
requested by the Lenders, other materials received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14 in connection with any sale, substitution, or repurchase of Loans. The Borrower (or Investment Manager, on its behalf) shall
deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Collateral Custodian, on which it may conclusively rely, to the effect that all conditions precedent to such sale, substitution or repurchase of Loans, as the case may be, have been satisfied. 

Section 2.15 Assignment of the Sale Agreements. 

The Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, all of the Borrower’s
right, title and interest in and to, but none of its obligations under, the Sale Agreement, the Master Participation Agreement, any Third Party Sale Agreement and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith to secure the
prompt, complete and indefeasible payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations of the Borrower arising in connection with this Agreement and each other Transaction Document,
whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties its right to indemnification under the Sale Agreement, the Master Participation Agreement and any Third Party Sale Agreement. The Borrower confirms that the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to
enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Sale Agreement, the Master Participation Agreement, any Third Party Sale Agreement and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith for the benefit of the Secured
Parties. 
 Section 2.16 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as
that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law: 
 (i) That Defaulting Lender’s
right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 12.1. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-76-	  	














 (ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the
payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that
Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing
deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and
sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully
funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments,
prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that
Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (b) If the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree in writing that a
Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which
may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of Advances Outstanding of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be
necessary to cause the Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively
with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change
hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or requires the
Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, the Borrower may request such Lender provide an estimate of the costs and expenses that would


  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-77-	  	














 
be incurred by such Lender in connection with designating a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to another of
its offices, branches or affiliates, in each case, which designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13, as the case may be, in the future and
(ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such estimate, the Borrower may approve the proposed designation or assignment, in which case the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to effect the same. The Borrower
hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such approved designation or assignment. 

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender hereunder, or if any Lender does not consent to any amendment or
modification (including in the form of a consent or waiver) to the definitions described in Section 12.1(g) which is approved by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense
and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.16),
all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: 

(i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (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 resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

(iii) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or
otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 Section 2.18
Increase of Commitment; Facility Amount. 
 (a) At any time during the Revolving Period, provided that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Commitment for any Lender may be increased in connection with a corresponding increase in the Facility Amount with the prior written consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender; provided that,
following such Commitment increase, the Facility Amount shall not exceed $250,000,000.00. Prior to the 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-78-	  	














 
effectiveness of any such increase, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the applicable Lender a revised Note in an aggregate face amount equal to the revised Commitment. The Borrower
confirms that each Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, without regard to the value or performance of the Loans or any other factor, may elect not to increase its Commitment. Upon such increase, Annex A hereto shall be deemed to be revised
to reflect such increase in such Lender’s Commitment. 
 (b) The Borrower may, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, add
additional Persons as Lenders. Each additional Lender shall become a party hereto by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a Joinder Supplement and a Transferee Letter. 

Section 2.19 Refunding of Swingline Advances. 

(a) Each Swingline Advance shall be refunded by the Lenders on the first Business Day following the date of such Swingline Advance (each such
date, a “Swingline Refund Date”). Such refundings shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall thereafter be reflected as Advances of the Lenders on the books and records of the
Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall fund its respective Pro Rata Share of Advances as required to repay Swingline Advances outstanding to the Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 noon on the applicable Swingline Refund Date. 

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Swingline Lender, within five (5) Business Days of demand, the amount of such Swingline Advances to the
extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Advances requested or required to be refunded. If any portion of any such amount paid to the Swingline Lender shall be recovered by or on behalf
of the Borrower from the Swingline Lender in bankruptcy or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. 

(c) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swingline Advances in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.19 is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2. Further, each Lender agrees and
acknowledges that if prior to the refunding of any outstanding Swingline Advances pursuant to this Section 2.19., a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding relating to the Borrower, the
Investment Manager or the Related Fund shall have occurred, each Lender will, on the date the applicable Advance would have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Advance to be refunded in an amount equal to its Pro
Rata Share of the aggregate amount of such Swingline Advance. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver
to such Lender a certificate evidencing such participation dated the date of receipt of such funds and for such amount. Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a
Swingline Advance, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded).

2.20 Effect of Benchmark Transition Event 

. 

(a) Benchmark
Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Transaction Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to
replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders, and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of
objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.20(a) will occur prior to the
applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 
 (b)
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement,
the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments
implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. 

(c)
Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the
Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Collateral Custodian) of the
removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.20(d). Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or
group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.20, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event,
circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
Section 2.20. 

(d)
Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other
Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference
Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information
service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or
(B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information
announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or
aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial

		  	-80-	  	















Benchmarks, then the
Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, modify the definition of “Accrual Period” (or any similar or analogous definition)
for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed
on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it
is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of
Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Accrual Period” (or any similar or analogous
definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed
tenor. 

(e)
Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice (which it shall forward to the Collateral Custodian) of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, all Advances that bear interest at Adjusted Term SOFR shall be deemed to be an Advance that bears interest at the Base Rate.
During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not
an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. 

(f) Conflict
with Other Sections. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Section 2.20 and any other section of this Agreement, the terms of this Section 2.20 shall control.

 direction of the Administrative Agent; provided that, the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to take

the Collateral Custodian.

to a “securities intermediary” as defined in the UCC) to the contrary, the Collateral Custodian shall not be under any duty or obligation in connection with the acquisition by the Borrower, or the grant by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent, of any Loan to examine or evaluate the sufficiency of the documents or instruments delivered to it by or on behalf of the Borrower under the related Underlying Instruments, or otherwise to examine the Underlying Instruments, in
order to determine or compel compliance with any applicable requirements of or restrictions on transfer (including without limitation any necessary consents). The Collateral Custodian shall hold any Instrument delivered to it evidencing any Loan
transferred to the Administrative Agent hereunder as custodial agent for the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any term hereof or elsewhere to the contrary, it is hereby expressly acknowledged that

delivery to the Collateral Custodian of a facsimile copy of a transfer document described in clause (a)(ii)(x) of the definition of “Required Loan Documents” (such document, a “Loan Assignment Agreement”) in favor of the Borrower
as assignee, (b) any such Loan Assignment Agreement (and the registration of the related Loans 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 Collateral Custodian with respect to such Loan (including in respect of any duty it might otherwise have to maintain a sufficient quantity of such Loan for purposes of UCC Section 8-504) shall be limited to the exercise of reasonable
care by the Collateral Custodian in the physical custody of any such Loan Assignment Agreement (and any other related Required Loan Documents) that may be delivered to it.

delivery thereof to the Collateral Custodian, and the Collateral Custodian shall not be under any obligation at any time to determine whether any such original security or instrument has been or is required to be issued or made available in respect
of any Collateral or to compel or cause delivery thereof to the Collateral Custodian. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Custodian shall be without liability to the Borrower, Investment Manager, the Administrative
Agent or any other Person for any damage or loss resulting from or caused by events or circumstances beyond the Collateral Custodian’s reasonable control, including nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, the interruption,

third party with any type of levy, attachment, writ or court order with respect to any Loan or Required Loan Document or (ii) a third party shall institute any court proceeding by which any Required Loan Document shall be required to be
delivered otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the party receiving such service shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the other parties to this Agreement copies of all court papers, orders, documents and
other materials concerning such proceedings. The Collateral Custodian shall, to the extent permitted by law, continue to hold and maintain all the Required Loan Documents that are the subject of such proceedings pending a final, nonappealable order
of a court of competent jurisdiction permitting or directing disposition thereof. Upon final determination of such court, the Collateral Custodian shall dispose of such Required Loan Documents as directed by the Administrative Agent, which shall

 (j) In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral
Custodian may, in the absence of a continuing of an Event of Default or the occurrence of the Termination Date, request instructions from the Investment Manager and during the existence of an Event of Default or following the occurrence of the
Termination Date, request instructions from the Administrative Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received instructions from the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent, as applicable.
The Collateral Custodian shall in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. 

(k) Without limiting the generality of any terms of this section, the Collateral Custodian shall have no liability for any failure, inability
or unwillingness on the part of the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent, any agent or the Borrower to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Custodian, 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 Custodian’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. 

(l) The Collateral Custodian shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to a Responsible Officer of
the Collateral Custodian. 
 (m) The Collateral Custodian may exercise any of its rights or powers hereunder or perform any of its duties
hereunder, either directly or, by or through Affiliates, agents or attorneys, and the Collateral Custodian shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any non-Affiliated agent or attorney appointed hereunder with due
care by it. Neither the Collateral Custodian nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees will be liable to the Investment Manager, Borrower or any other Person, except by reason of acts or omissions by the
Collateral Custodian constituting bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the Collateral Custodian’s duties hereunder. The Collateral Custodian shall in no event have any liability for the actions or omissions
of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent, 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 Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent, or another Person except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused by the Collateral Custodian’s own bad faith, willful
misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties hereunder. 
 (n) The parties acknowledge that in accordance with the
Customer Identification Program (CIP) requirements under the USA Patriot Act and its implementing regulations, the Collateral Custodian in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record

request including, but not limited to, each Borrower’s name, physical address, tax identification number and other information that will help the Collateral Custodian to identify and verify each Borrower’s identity such as organizational
documents, certificate of good standing, license to do business, or other pertinent identifying information.

 (o) It is understood and agreed that any foreign exchange transaction effected by the
Collateral Custodian acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the Investment Manager may be entered with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or its affiliates acting as principal or otherwise through customary banking
channels. The Collateral Custodian shall be entitled at all times to comply with any legal or regulatory requirements applicable to currency or foreign exchange transactions. Each of the party hereto acknowledges that the Collateral Custodian or any
affiliates of the Collateral Custodian involved in any such foreign exchange transactions may make a margin or banking income from foreign exchange transactions entered into pursuant to this section for which they shall not be required to account to
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager. All risk and expense incident to such conversion is the responsibility of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager and the Collateral Custodian shall have
(x) no responsibility for fluctuations in exchange rates affecting any collections or conversion thereof and (y) to the extent it complies with the instructions provided by the respective party, no liability for any losses incurred or
resulting from the rates obtained in such foreign exchange transactions.

written notice to the Borrower, Investment Manager, Administrative Agent and each Lender, or (b) the Collateral Custodian’s determination that (i) the performance of its duties hereunder is or becomes impermissible under Applicable
Law and (ii) there is no reasonable action that the Collateral Custodian could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under Applicable Law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Collateral Custodian
shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Administrative Agent. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor Collateral Custodian shall have assumed the responsibilities
and obligations of the Collateral Custodian hereunder. 
 Section 7.8 Release of Documents. 

(i) Release for Servicing. From time to time and as appropriate for the enforcement or servicing of any of the Collateral, the Collateral
Custodian is hereby authorized (unless and until such authorization is revoked by the Administrative Agent) to, and shall, upon written receipt from the Investment Manager of a request for release of documents and receipt in the form annexed hereto
as Exhibit E, release to the Investment Manager within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such request, the related Required Loan Documents or the documents set forth in such request and receipt to the Investment Manager. All documents so
released to the Investment Manager shall be held by the Investment Manager in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Investment Manager shall return to
the Collateral Custodian the Required Loan Documents or other such documents (i) promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, or (ii) when the Investment Manager’s need therefor in connection with such enforcement or
servicing no longer exists, unless the Loan shall be liquidated or sold, in which case, upon receipt of an additional request for release of documents and receipt certifying such liquidation or sale from the Investment Manager to the Collateral

to utilize in connection with the transmission of Required Loan Documents in the performance of the Collateral Custodian’s duties hereunder shall be delivered by the Borrower, the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent to the Collateral
Custodian prior to any shipment of any Underlying Instruments hereunder. The Investment Manager shall arrange for the provision of such services at the cost and expense of the Borrower (or, at the Collateral Custodian’s option, the Borrower
shall reimburse the Collateral Custodian for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses of the Collateral Custodian consistent with such instructions) and shall maintain such insurance against loss or damage to the Underlying Instruments as
the Investment Manager deems appropriate.

Section 8.2, (c) that has been the subject of a Discretionary Sale or Substitution pursuant to Section 2.14 or (e) that is required to be redelivered to the Borrower in connection with the termination of this
Agreement, in each case by submitting to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent a written request in the form of Exhibit E hereto (signed by both the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) specifying the Collateral to be so

with such a review. Such review shall be reasonable in scope and shall be completed in a reasonable period of time. The fees and expenses of the Collateral Custodian incurred under Section 7.10 shall be borne by the Borrower. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 SECURITY
INTEREST 
 Section 8.1 Grant of Security Interest. 

(a) This Agreement constitutes a security agreement and the Advances effected hereby constitute secured loans by the applicable Lenders to the
Borrower under Applicable Law. For such purpose, the Borrower hereby transfers, conveys, assigns and grants as of the Closing Date to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, a lien and continuing security interest in all of the
Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under (in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising) all Accounts, General Intangibles, Instruments and Investment Property and any and all other property of any
type or nature owned by it (the “Collateral”), including but not limited to: 
 (i) all Loans, Permitted
Investments and Equity Securities, all payments thereon or with respect thereto and all contracts to purchase, commitment letters, confirmations and due bills relating to any Loans, Permitted Investments or Equity Securities; 

(ii) the Accounts and all Cash and Financial Assets credited thereto and all income from the investment of funds therein; 

(iii) any Hedging Agreement and any payment from time to time due thereunder; 

(iv) all Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a party; 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-128-	  	














 (v) all funds delivered to the Collateral Custodian (directly or through a
bailee); 
 (vi) all Collections, rights in Underlying Assets, and Underlying Instruments, Insurance Policies, all Required
Loan Documents and related records and assets; and 
 (vii) all accounts, accessions, profits, income benefits, proceeds,
substitutions and replacements, whether voluntary or involuntary, of and to any of the property of the Borrower described in the preceding clauses; 
 in
each case, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower, and wherever the same may be located, to secure the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration
or otherwise, of the Obligations of the Borrower arising in connection with this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent, including,
without limitation, all Obligations. 
 Notwithstanding any of the other provisions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall
not constitute a grant of a security interest in any property to the extent that such grant of a security interest is prohibited by any Applicable Law not in effect as of the date hereof or requires a consent not obtained of any Governmental
Authority pursuant to such Applicable Law provided, that (x) immediately at such time as the prohibition shall no longer be applicable, such security interest shall attach immediately to such assets and (y) the Collateral includes
any Proceeds of any of such assets. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and
shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. If the
Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation to do so, may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such
agreement. The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Advances, shall be payable by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured hereby. 
 (b) The grant of a security interest under this
Section 8.1 does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Administrative Agent or any of the other Secured Parties of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Person in connection with any or
all of the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the Borrower shall remain liable under any applicable Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of
its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the
Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under any applicable Collateral, 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-129-	  	














 
and (c) none of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative
Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Hedge Counterparty, the
Collateral Custodian and each Lender hereby agree to treat, and to cause each of their respective Affiliates to treat, each Note as indebtedness for purposes of United States federal and state income tax or state franchise tax to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law and shall file its tax returns or reports, or cause its Affiliates to file such tax returns or reports, in a manner consistent with such treatment. 

Section 8.2 Release of Lien on Collateral. 

At the same time as (i) any Collateral expires by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid in full by the related
Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account, (ii) such Loan has been the subject of a Discretionary Sale, Substitution or a sale of a Warranty Loan pursuant to Section 2.14 or (iii) this Agreement terminates in accordance
with Section 12.6, the interest of the Administrative Agent in such Collateral shall be automatically released, and the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, to the extent requested by the Investment Manager, shall, at
the sole expense of the Borrower, provide evidence of the release of its interest in such Collateral. In connection with any sale of such Collateral, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will after the deposit by the
Investment Manager of the Proceeds of such sale into the Collection Account, at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver to the Investment Manager any assignments, bills of sale, termination statements and any other releases and
instruments as the Investment Manager may reasonably request in order to effect the release and transfer of such Collateral; provided that, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will make no representation or warranty,
express or implied, with respect to any such Collateral in connection with such sale or transfer and assignment. Nothing in this section shall diminish the
Collateral Custodian’s obligations pursuant to
Section 6.2(j) with respect to the Proceeds of any such sale. 
 Section 8.3 Remedies. 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties shall have, with respect to the Collateral granted
pursuant to Section 8.1, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties under this Agreement or other Applicable Law, all rights and remedies set forth in
Section 9.2. 
 Section 8.4 Waiver of Certain Laws. 

Each of the Borrower and the Investment Manager agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming
through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent,

hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof,
immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower and the Investment Manager, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the
benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security
interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such court may determine. 

Section 8.5 Power of Attorney. 

Each of the Borrower and the Investment Manager hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full
power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at the Borrower’s expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided for (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth) in this Agreement during the
continuance of an Event of Default, including without limitation the following powers: (a) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (b) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in
connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (c) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition,
the Borrower and the Investment Manager hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto, and (d) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or
pursuant to any Transaction Document. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent or such purchaser all
proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request.

automatically upon the occurrence of any such event. The Administrative Agent shall forward a copy of any notice delivered to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.2(a) to the Lenders. 

(b) On and after the declaration or occurrence of the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall
have, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, all other rights and remedies provided under the UCC of each applicable jurisdiction and other Applicable Laws, which rights shall be cumulative. The Borrower and
the Investment Manager hereby agree that they will, at the Borrower’s expense and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, forthwith, (i) assemble all or any part of the Loans as directed by the Administrative Agent and make the same
available to the Administrative Agent at a place to be designated by the Administrative Agent and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Loans or any part thereof upon such terms, in such lots, to such buyers, and according to
such other instructions as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Administrative Agent will not cause or direct the sale of any Loans or other
Collateral on and after the declaration or occurrence of the Termination Date unless either (i) the Administrative Agent determines 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 Obligations (or in the case of a sale of less than all of the Collateral, an amount sufficient to discharge the amount of the Obligations attributable
to such portion of the Collateral); or (ii) the Required Lenders direct such sale and liquidation. The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, ten (10) days’ notice to the Borrower of any sale
hereunder shall constitute reasonable notification. All cash Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Loans (after payment of any amounts incurred in
connection with such sale) shall be deposited into the Collection Account and to be applied pursuant to Section 2.8. The occurrence of a Termination Date as defined in clauses (a) through (c), inclusive, of the definition of
“Termination Date” shall constitute a Termination Date for the purposes of this Section 9.2. 
 (c) If the
Administrative Agent elects, subject to clause (b) above, to sell the Collateral in whole, but not in part, at a public or private sale, the Borrower (or its designee) may exercise its right of first refusal to repurchase the Collateral,
in whole but not in part, prior to such sale at an aggregate purchase price to be paid in full in cash on the date of such proposed sale that is not less than the amount of the Obligations as of the date of such proposed sale. The Borrower’s
right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City Time) on the tenth (10th) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice of the Administrative Agent’s election to sell such
Collateral.

the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian, the Securities Intermediary, the Secured Parties, the Lenders and each of their respective assigns and directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (collectively, the “Indemnified
Parties”), forthwith on demand, from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred

(other than those described in clause (xii) of this Section 10.1(a) or in Section 2.12, Section 2.13, or Section 12.9). If the Borrower has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this
Section 10.1 and Section 10.3 and such payment fully indemnified the recipient thereof and the recipient thereafter collects any payments from others in respect of such Indemnified Amounts then, the recipient shall repay to
the Borrower an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such indemnified amounts. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall indemnify each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts (except to the extent
resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party) relating to or resulting from:

 (iv) the failure to vest and maintain vested in the Administrative Agent, as
agent for the Secured Parties, an undivided interest in the Collateral, together with all Collections, free and clear of any Lien whether existing at the time of any Advance or at any time thereafter; 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-135-	  	














 (v) the failure to maintain, as of the close of business on each Business
Day prior to the Termination Date, an amount of Advances Outstanding that is less than or equal to the Availability on such Business Day; 

(vi) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements, continuation statements or other similar instruments or
documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other Applicable Law with respect to any Collateral, whether at the time of any Advance or at any subsequent time; 

(vii) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than the discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the
payment with respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, a defense based on the Collateral not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim
resulting from the sale of the merchandise or services related to such Collateral or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services; 

(viii) any failure of any Loan Party to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or any of the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or any failure by any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof to perform its respective duties under any Collateral; 

(ix) any inability to obtain any judgment in, or utilize the court or other adjudication system of, any state in which an
Obligor may be located as a result of the failure of the Borrower or the Related Fund to qualify to do business or file any notice or business activity report or any similar report; 

(x) any action taken by the Borrower or the Investment Manager in the enforcement or collection of any Collateral; 

(xi) any products liability claim or personal injury or property damage suit or other similar or related claim or action of
whatever sort arising out of or in connection with the Underlying Assets or services that are the subject of any Collateral; 

(xii) the failure by the Borrower to pay when due any Taxes for which the Borrower is liable, including without limitation,
sales, excise or personal property taxes payable in connection with the Collateral; 
 (xiii) any repayment by the
Administrative Agent or another Secured Party of any amount previously distributed in repayment of Advances Outstanding or payment of Interest or any other amount due hereunder or under any Hedging Agreement, in each case, which amount the
Administrative Agent or another Secured Party believes in good faith is required to be repaid; 
 (xiv) except with respect
to funds held in the Collection Account, the commingling of Collections on the Collateral at any time with other funds; 

(xv) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to this Agreement or the use of proceeds of Advances or the security
interest in the Collateral; 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-136-	  	














 (xvi) any failure by the Borrower to give reasonably equivalent value to the
Related Fund or to the applicable third party transferor, in consideration for the transfer by the Related Fund or such third party to the Borrower of any item of Collateral or any attempt by any Person to void or otherwise avoid any such transfer
under any statutory provision or common law or equitable action, including, without limitation, any provision of the Bankruptcy Code; 

(xvii) the use of the proceeds of any Advance in a manner other than as provided in this Agreement, the Sale Agreement or any

Indemnified Party on the Payment Date following such Person’s demand therefor, accompanied by a reasonably detailed description in writing of the related damage, loss, claim, liability and related costs and expenses. 

(c) If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 10.1 is unavailable to the Indemnified
Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations;
provided that the Borrower shall be required to contribute in respect of any Indemnified Amounts excluded in Section 10.1(a). 

(d) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 10.1 shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Administrative Agent, the Investment Manager, the Collateral Custodian or the Securities Intermediary and the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 10.2 Indemnities by the Investment Manager. 

(a) Without limiting any other rights that any such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Investment Manager hereby agrees to
indemnify the Lenders, forthwith on demand, from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts (except to the extent resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party) awarded against or incurred by any such
Indemnified Party by reason of the Investment Manager’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance or failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).
The provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by an injured party subject to the limitations hereof.

shall be paid by the Investment Manager to the Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following such Person’s demand therefor. 

(c) The Investment Manager shall have no liability for making indemnification hereunder to the extent any such indemnification constitutes
recourse for uncollectible or uncollected Loans. 
 (d) The obligations of the Investment Manager under this Section 10.2 shall
survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any
indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall not be payable from the Collateral. 
 Section 10.3 After-Tax
Basis. 
 Indemnification under Section 10.1, Section 10.2, Section 2.12, Section 2.13,
and Section 12.9 shall be on an after-Tax basis. 
 ARTICLE XI 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 11.1 Appointment. 

Each Secured Party hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent and bailee for purposes of perfection pursuant to the
applicable UCC and hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents and bailees (including, without limitation, the Collateral Custodian) to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties. Each
Secured Party further authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality, of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent to execute and
deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate or that a Secured Party may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the
security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the execution by the Administrative Agent as secured party/assignee of
such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Collateral now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the
purposes stated hereinabove. The Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to take any 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-138-	  	














 
such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall
not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the direction of the Lenders; provided that the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provision of this
Agreement or shall expose the Administrative Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. In the event the Administrative Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a
consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten (10) Business Days of such Person’s receipt of such request, then such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action. 

The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Transaction Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations,
together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to this Article XI for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Transaction Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the
Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article XI and Articles X and XII (as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the
Transaction Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 
 Section 11.2 Standard of Care; Exculpatory
Provisions. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Transaction
Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (i) shall not be subject to any
fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any
duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed
in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action
that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Transaction Document or Applicable Law;
and 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-139-	  	














 (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other
Transaction Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative
Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 

(iv)
 shall not be responsible to any Secured Party, any Loan
Party or any other Person, or have any liability for, any incorrect or inaccurate determination of Term SOFR or the Base Rate for any purpose under any Loan Document; and 

(v)
 does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall
not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR, or any component
definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative,
successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term
SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in
transactions that affect the calculation of Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each
case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR or any other
Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive,
incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or
service. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken
or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary) or
(ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and
until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Investment Manager, the Borrower or a Lender. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-140-	  	














 (d) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or
inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or
in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm
receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.3 Administrative Agent’s
Reliance, Etc. 
 Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative
Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or the Related Fund), 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; (ii) makes no warranty or representation and shall not be responsible for any statements, warranties or representations made by any other Person in or in
connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents on the part of
any Loan Party or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (iv) shall not be responsible for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of
the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (v) may rely upon and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by acting
upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties, or upon any statement made to it orally
or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. 

Section 11.4 Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent. 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative
Agent’s Affiliates, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-141-	  	














 Section 11.5 Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. 

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Investment Manager), ratably in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by,
or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided that,
the Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The payment of amounts under this Section 11.5 shall be on an after-Tax basis. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share
promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that such expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Lenders hereunder
and/or thereunder and to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Investment Manager. 

Section 11.6 Successor Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time, effective upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided
below, by giving at least thirty (30) days’ written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the Required Lenders acting jointly. The Required Lenders (other than Capital One, National
Association or any of its Affiliates if Capital One, National Association is the Administrative Agent at such time) may, subject to the prior written consent of the Investment Manager and the Borrower provided no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), at any time, upon at least 30 days’ written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, remove the Administrative Agent if at such time the aggregate
amount of Administrative Agent’s Commitment (during the Revolving Period) or Advances Outstanding (following the Revolving Period) is less than 25% of the Facility Amount. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders acting
jointly shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing. Each of the Borrower and each Lender agree that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-142-	  	














 
the removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor
Administrative Agent shall be either (i) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 or (ii) an Affiliate of such a bank. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the
provisions of this Article XI shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. 

Section 11.7 Delegation of Duties. 

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Transaction
Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related
Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of
the credit facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.8 Payments by the Administrative Agent. 

Unless specifically allocated to a specific Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lenders shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in the applicable Advances Outstanding, or if there are no Advances Outstanding in accordance with their most recent
Commitments, on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless such amounts are received after 12:00 noon (New York City Time) on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such
amounts to each Lender on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lender not later than the following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall pay amounts owing to each Lender in accordance with the written
instructions delivered by each such Lender to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 11.9 Collateral Matters. 

Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien on any Collateral
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, under any Transaction Document (i) upon the termination of the Commitment and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent
indemnification obligations), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance
with Section 12.1. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-143-	  	














 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 11.9. In each case as specified in this Section 11.9, the
Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security
interest granted under the Transaction Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and this Section 11.9. 

ARTICLE XII 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 12.1 Amendments and Waivers. 

Except as provided in this Section 12.1, no amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective without the written agreement of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; provided, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) increase the Commitment of any Lender or the amount of Advances of any Lender, in any case, without the written consent of such Lender;

 (b) waive, extend or postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document for any payment or mandatory prepayment
of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) or any scheduled or mandatory reduction of the Commitments hereunder or under any other Transaction Document without the written consent of each Lender;
provided that if any Lender declines or is deemed to have denied a request to extend the Scheduled Revolving Period End Date and/or Facility Maturity Date that other Lenders agree to, it agrees, at the request of the Borrower, to
(x) sell its Commitment to one or more extending Lender upon request of each such extending Lender (and, if multiple Lenders make any such request, the declining Lender’s Commitment will be allocated pro rata (based on their existing
Commitments) to each such extending Lender), (y) sell its Commitment pursuant to the assignment provisions set forth in Section 12.16 or (z) have its Commitment terminated as follows: to the extent the Commitment of any non-extending
Lender is not sold as described in clause (x) or (y) as of the last day of the Revolving Period (without giving effect to any extension thereof), the Facility Amount shall be permanently reduced in part with respect to the Commitment of
such non-extending Lender on such day, and the Borrower shall repay in full all Advances Outstanding made by such non-extending Lender and other Obligations owing to such Lender under this Agreement on such last day of the Revolving Period (without
giving effect to any extension thereof). For the avoidance of doubt nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall obligate the Borrower to (i) extend the Scheduled Revolving Period End Date and/or Facility Maturity Date or (ii) make
the required request unless it agrees to extend the Scheduled Revolving Period End Date and/or Facility Maturity Date without the consent of all Lenders;

		  	-144-

(y) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (y); 

(2) no assignments shall be made to a natural person; 

(3) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the assignment and assumption agreement
with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be
required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-155-	  	














 (4) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations in respect of one class of Commitments or Loans; 
 (5) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent an assignment and assumption agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders; and 

(6) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in
which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will
be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

(b) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its lending offices, a copy of
each transfer pursuant to Section 12.16(a) delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Transfer by a Lender of its rights hereunder or under any Note may be effected only by the recording by the Administrative Agent of the identity of the transferee in the Register. The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(c) The Collateral Custodian may, at any time, assign all or any part of its rights and obligations hereunder as Collateral Custodian;
provided, however, that, except as set forth herein, including Section 7.3 hereof, or unless otherwise consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, any such assignee shall (i) be a bank or other financial
institution organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof, (ii) be authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, (iii) have a combined capital and surplus of at least
$200,000,000, (iv) be subject to supervision or examination by a United States federal or state banking authority, (v) have a rating of at least “Baa1” by Moody’s and “BBB+” by S&P, (vi) have an office
within the United States and (vii) be in the business of providing 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-156-	  	














 
collateral custodian services consistent with those required pursuant to this Agreement; and provided, further, that such assignment shall not be effective unless (i), prior to such
assignment, Collateral Custodian shall have given ninety (90) days written notice to the Borrower, Investment Manager, Administrative Agent and each Lender describing such assignment and (ii) such assignee has assumed the responsibilities
and obligations of the Collateral Custodian, as applicable, being assigned to it in writing.

Section 12.18 Effect of Benchmark Transition
Event. 

(a)
Benchmark
Replacement. 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document,
if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the
Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement
Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent
of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such
Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice
of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such
time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. 

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document and
subject to the proviso below in this Section 12.18(a)(ii), if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current
Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment
to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that this Section 12.18(a)(ii) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-157-	  	














 (b)
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming
Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing
such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will
become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. 
 (c)
Notices; Standards for Decisions and
Determinations. The Administrative Agent will
promptly notify the Borrower, the Lenders and the Collateral Custodian of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in
Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes,
(iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 12.18, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or
non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent
from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
Section 12.18. 

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction
Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term
rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either
(A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected
by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no
longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the formulation of any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such
unavailable or non-representative tenor and
(ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service
for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark
Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the formulation for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such
previously removed tenor. 

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a LIBOR Rate Advance of,
conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an Advance of or conversion to Base Rate Advances. During any Benchmark
Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available
Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any
determination of the Base Rate.

		  	-158-	  	














 (f)
Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section
12.18. 
 “Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, any tenor for such Benchmark or payment period for interest
calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, that is or may be used for determining the length of an interest period pursuant to this
Agreement as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 12.18. 

“Benchmark” means, initially, USD LIBOR; provided that if a
Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to USD LIBOR or the then-current
Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant
to clause (a) of this Section 12.18. 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the
first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 
  

	 	1.	 the sum of: (x) Term SOFR and (y) the related Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment; 


  

	 	2.	 the sum of: (x) Daily Simple SOFR and (y) the related Benchmark
Replacement Adjustment; 


  

	 	3.	 the sum of: (x) the alternate
benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental
Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (y) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 


 provided that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark
Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, upon the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and the delivery
of a Term SOFR Notice, on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date, the Benchmark Replacement shall revert to and shall be deemed to be the sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment as set forth
in clause (1) of this definition (subject to the first proviso above). If
the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2), or (3) above would be
less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-159-	  	















“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with
an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable interest period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark
Replacement: 
  

	 	1.	 for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of
“Benchmark Replacement”, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, subject to the consent of the Investment Manager
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): 



(a) the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or
determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such interest period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body
for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; 
 (b) the
spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such interest period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA
Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and 
  

	 	2.	 for purposes of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark
Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the
applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement
of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated
credit facilities; provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from
time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. 



“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect
to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Base Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest,
timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion 

  

					
	[Investcorp] Loan and Security Agreement	  		  	
		  	-160-	  	














 or continuation notices,
length of lookback periods, the applicability of
breakage provisions, and other technical,
administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower jointly decide may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of
such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the
administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower jointly decide that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower jointly
determine that no market practice for the administration
of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other
manner of administration as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower jointly decide is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents). 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 

 

	 	1.	 in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark
Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all
Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 


  

	 	2.	 in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition
Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; 


  

	 	3.	 in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after
the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day
after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders; or



  

	 	4.	 in the case of a Term SOFR Transition Event, the date that is ninety
(90) days after the date a Term SOFR Notice is provided to the Lenders and the Borrower pursuant to Section 12.18(a)(ii). 


 For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs
on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement
Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable
event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the
calculation thereof). 
 “Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such
component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such
Benchmark (or such component thereof); 


  

	 	2.	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for
the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a
resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states
that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or
publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 



 

	 	3.	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for
the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or
such component thereof) are no longer representative.

“Benchmark Unavailability
Period” means the period (if any)
(x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement
Date pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) of that definition

this Section 12.18 and (y) ending at the
time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance
with this Section 12.18.

administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may establish another convention in its reasonable discretion. 

“Early Opt-in Election” means, if the then-current Benchmark is
USD LIBOR, the occurrence of a notification by the Administrative Agent to (or the request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to notify) each of the other parties hereto that at least five currently outstanding U.S. dollar-denominated
syndicated credit facilities at such time contain (as a result of amendment or as originally executed) a SOFR-based rate (including SOFR, a term SOFR or any other rate based upon SOFR) as a benchmark rate (and such syndicated credit facilities are
identified in such notice and are publicly available for review), and the joint election by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or the Investment Manager on behalf of the Borrower) to trigger a fallback from USD LIBOR and the provision by the
Administrative Agent of written notice of such election to the Lenders.

 SCHEDULE III 

Investment Manager Guidelines 
 In
