Reference is made to that certain Sale and Servicing Agreement dated as of December 30, 2005
(together with all exhibits, appendices, amendments and supplements thereto, the Sale and Servicing Agreement) by and among NewStar Financial, Inc., as seller and as servicer, NewStar Warehouse Funding 2005 LLC, as
purchaser, and Lyon Financial Services, Inc., as backup servicer. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Appendix Ato the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

This Amended and Restated Demand Note amends and restates that certain Demand Note, dated as of December 30, 2005, made in the principal amount of
$30,000,000 by NewStar Financial, Inc. in favor of NewStar Warehouse Funding 2005 LLC (the Existing Demand Note).

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, NEWSTAR FINANCIAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the Obligor), hereby promises to pay on demand as provided herein to the order of NEWSTAR WAREHOUSE FUNDING 2005
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the Holder), in the manner as set forth below, an amount of FORTY MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS(U.S.
$40,000,000) or such lesser amount as may be demanded hereunder but in any event not to exceed the Maximum Amount as of the related date of demand, together with interest thereon if not paid when due as provided herein. Maximum
Amount means an amount equal to the lesser of (1) (a) U.S. $40,000,000 minus (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Delinquent Assets or Charged-Off Assets substituted or repurchased
by the Seller pursuant to Section 6.1(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement plus (ii) the aggregate principal payments made hereunder and (2) (a) the product of (i) ten percent (10%) multiplied by (ii) the highest
aggregate outstanding Note Balance of the Notes during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of demand hereunder (or such shorter period beginning on December 30, 2005 and ending on the date demand is made hereunder
if such period is less than twelve (12) months), minus (b) the aggregate during such 12 month period, or such shorter period, as applicable, of the sum of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance of all Delinquent Assets or
Charged-Off Assets substituted or repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Section 6.1(a)of the Sale and Servicing Agreement plus (ii) the aggregate principal payments made hereunder. Payments hereunder shall be made in coin or
currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment shall be legal tender therein for the payment of public and private debts. This Demand Note shall mature, terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the release by the
Indenture Trustee of the Collateral pursuant to Section 8.4(b)of the Indenture.

From time to time, the Holder may make
written demand on the Obligor to pay such portion of the principal amount hereof as is then demanded, but in no event in an amount in excess of the

Maximum Amount as of the date of such demand, within ten (10) days following receipt of such notice of demand (each a related Payment
Date). In the event that any payment to be made hereunder shall be or become due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day which is a legal bank holiday under the laws of the State of New York or of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, such
payment shall be or become due on the next succeeding business day. Payments of principal of, and interest on, this Demand Note shall be made by or on behalf of the Obligor to the Holder hereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the
manner and at the address specified for such purposes as provided by the Holder in the related written demand for payment, without the presentation or surrender of this Demand Note or the making of any notation on this Demand Note. If all or a
portion of the principal amount demanded hereunder is not paid when due on the related Payment Date, such overdue amount shall beat interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of the Note Interest Rate or the highest rate of interest
permissible under applicable law, in each case from the date of such non-payment to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid in full.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the Obligor expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Demand Note.

All amounts evidenced by this Demand Note and all principal payments made hereunder and the respective Payment Dates thereof shall be endorsed by the
Holder on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof, provided, however, that the failure of the Holder to make such a notation shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Obligor under this Demand Note.

The Holder may not sell, assign, transfer, negotiate, grant participations in or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of this Demand
Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligor acknowledges that the Holder has authorized the Note Purchaser to make demands hereunder as provided in Section 7.08of the Note Purchase Agreement; the Obligor agrees to make
payments then required to be made by it hereunder upon any such demand by the Note Purchaser into the Collection Account.

No failure or
delay by the Holder in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Demand Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No course of dealing between the Obligor and the Holder shall operate as a waiver of any rights by
the Holder.

In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Demand Note shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Demand Note, but this Demand Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been
contained herein.

The Obligor and the Holder, by acceptance hereof, agree to treat this Demand Note as a capital contribution from the
Obligor to the Holder.

This Demand Note and the rights and obligations of the Obligor and the Holder shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

This Amended and Restated Demand Note shall be in substitution for and replacement of
the Existing Demand Note. The Indebtedness evidenced by the Existing Demand Note is continuing Indebtedness and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute payment, settlement, or a novation of the Existing Demand Note.
