than 30 days following receipt of such Extension Request, and if any Lender does not respond in writing by the end of such 30 day period it shall be deemed to have denied such Extension Request. No request by the Borrower to extend the Revolving
Period (and hence the Facility Termination Date) shall be
considered an “Extension Request” if such request is conditioned on an amendment to any other provision of the Transaction Documents. 

Section 2.7 Calculation of Haircut. The initial Haircut for each Eligible Collateral Obligation (which percentage may not be
greater than 100%) will be determined by the Agent in its sole discretion in connection with the acquisition of such loan by the Borrower. With respect to any Eligible Collateral Obligation that is subject to an Evaluation Event and to which the
Agent has not assigned a new Advance Rate pursuant to Section 2.8, the Haircut applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation shall only then be revised to be the lower of (A) the available price or valuation (expressed as
percentage of par) of such Eligible Collateral Obligation (provided by a recognized third-party valuation provider selected by the Agent) and (B) the Haircut applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation immediately prior to such Evaluation
Event. In the event that (x) an Eligible Collateral Obligation has experienced a downward Eligible Collateral Obligations in connection therewith), no Borrowing Base Deficiency shall have occurred;

 ARTICLE VIII 

ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS 

Section 8.1 Accounts. (a) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall establish each Account in the name of the
Borrower and each Account shall be a segregated, non-interest bearing trust account established with the Securities Intermediary. Funds held in the Collection Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and
the applicable Monthly Report. If at any time a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge that any Account ceases to be an Eligible Account (with notice to the Servicer, the Agent and each Lender Agent), then the Borrower
shall cause the Servicer to transfer such account to another institution such that such account shall meet the requirements of an Eligible Account. 

Except as set forth below, amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account may be withdrawn at the direction of the Borrower or at the
direction of the Servicer (i) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Variable Funding Asset, or (ii) to make a deposit into the
CollectionsCollection
 Account as Principal Collections if, after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is equal to or greater than the Aggregate Unfunded
Amount. 
 Following the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall cause the Servicer to forward any draw request made by an
Obligor under a Variable Funding Asset, along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Agent and each Lender Agent) along with a written 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 Servicer. 

Following the end of the Revolving Period, if the Borrower shall receive any Principal Collections from an Obligor with respect to a Variable
Funding Asset 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 Unfunded Amount (the amount of such shortfall, in each
case, the “Unfunded Exposure Shortfall”), the Borrower shall cause the Servicer to direct the Collateral Custodian to and 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. 

(b) All amounts held in any Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be invested by the Collateral Custodian, as directed by
the Servicer in writing (or, if the Servicer fails to provide such direction, such amounts shall remain uninvested), in Permitted Investments that mature (i) with respect to the Collection Account, not later than one Business Day prior to the
Distribution Date for the Collection Period to which such amounts relate and (ii) with respect to the Unfunded Exposure Account, on the immediately following 

  
 - 80 - 













 Business Day. Any such written direction shall certify that any such investment is authorized by this
Section 8.1. Investments in Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Collateral Custodian, and, except as specifically required below, such investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. If any
amounts are needed for disbursement from the Collection Account and sufficient uninvested funds are not available therein to make such disbursement, the Collateral Custodian shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount
of the investments in such account to make such disbursement in accordance with and upon the written direction of the Servicer or, if the Servicer shall fail to give such direction, the Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall, upon written request,
provide the Agent with all information in its possession regarding transfer into and out of the Collection Account (including, but not limited to, the identity of the counterparty making or receiving such transfer). In no event shall the Collateral
Agent or the Collateral Custodian be liable for the selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Servicer or the Agent, as applicable, to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral
Custodian. The Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian and their respective Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s or the Collateral Custodian’s economic
self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain
Permitted Investments, and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this Agreement. 

(c) Neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection
Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 8.1(a), Section 8.1(b), Section 8.2, or Section 8.3(b). 

Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Collateral Agent shall have sole Control (within the meaning of the UCC) over each Account and
each such investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment, if any, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent or its agent, together with each document of transfer, if any, necessary to
transfer title to such investment to the Collateral Agent in a manner that complies with this Section 8.1. All interest, dividends, gains upon sale and other income from, or earnings on, investments of funds in the Accounts shall be
deposited or transferred to the Collection Account and distributed pursuant to Section 8.3(a). 
 (d) The Equityholder may, from
time to time in its sole discretion (x) transfer to the Collateral Agent for deposit amounts into the Principal Collection Account and/or (y) transfer Eligible Collateral Obligations as equity contributions to the Borrower for deposit in
the Custodial Account. All such amounts will be included in each applicable compliance calculation under this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculation of the Borrowing Base and the Collateral Quality Tests. 

Section 8.2 Excluded Amounts. The Borrower may cause the Servicer to direct the Collateral Agent and the Securities Intermediary
to withdraw from the applicable Account and pay to the Person entitled thereto any amounts credited thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Agent a report setting

 Section 8.5 Monthly Report. The Collateral
Administrator shall prepare (based on information provided to it by the Servicer, the Agent, the Lender Agents and the Lenders as set forth herein) a Monthly Report in the form of Exhibit D determined as of the close of business on each
Determination Date and make available such Monthly Report to the Agent, each Lender Agent, the Borrower and the Servicer on each Reporting Date starting with the Reporting Date in November 2018. If any party receiving any Monthly Report disagrees
with any items of such report, it shall contact the Collateral Administrator and notify it of such disputed item and provide reasonably sufficient information to correct such item, with (if other than the Agent) a copy of such notice and information
to the Agent, each Lender Agent and the Servicer. Unless the Collateral Administrator is otherwise timely directed by the Agent, the Collateral Agent shall distribute a revised Monthly Report on the Business Day after it receives such information.

assessments or other governmental charges. 
 Section 9.28 Transaction Documents. The Transaction Documents delivered to the

Collateral Obligation and all assets relating thereto, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. All such assets are transferred to the Borrower without recourse to the Equityholder except as described in the Sale Agreement. The purchases of such assets
by the Borrower constitute valid and true sales for consideration (and not merely a pledge of such assets for security purposes) and the contributions of such assets received by the Borrower constitute valid and true transfers for consideration,
each enforceable against creditors of the Equityholder, and no such assets shall constitute property of the Equityholder. 

Section 9.29 Compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Borrower represents and warrants that
neither it nor any of its Affiliates, directors or officers, nor any of its or its Affiliates’ employees or agents, have engaged in any activity or conduct that would breach Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws. 

Section 9.30 Compliance with Sanctions. The Borrower represents and warrants that (a) neither it nor any of its Affiliates,

Sanctions, and (b) no Loan, use of proceeds or other transaction contemplated by this Agreement will result in the violation of any applicable Sanctions. 

Section 9.31 Beneficial Ownership Certification. The information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification, if any, is
true and correct in all material respects. 
 Section 9.32 Similar Law. The Borrower is not a plan subject to any Similar Law or
an entity subject to any Similar Law by reason of the investment in the Borrower of one or more “governmental plans” (as defined by Section 3(33) of ERISA) or other plans or during any period that the assets, properties or revenues of
the Borrower are subject to any Similar Law, by reason of the investment in the Borrower of one or more “governmental plans” (as defined by Section 3(33) of ERISA) or other plans, neither the entering into and performance of the
Agreement nor any other transactions entered into under the Transaction Documents will constitute or result in a violation of any Similar Law. The representations in this Section 9.32 shall be deemed repeated on each day that an Obligation is
outstanding.

	 	Re:	 Retention of Net Economic
Interest 



1. This letter is being
delivered in connection with the Loan and Servicing Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2018 (together with all amendments, if any, from time to time made thereto, the “Loan Servicing Agreement”), among GSO Stone Street LLC, as
Borrower (the “Borrower”), GSO Direct Lending Fund-D LP, as Servicer and Equityholder, Citibank, N.A., as Collateral Agent and as Collateral Custodian, Virtus Group, LP, as Collateral Administrator, the Lender Agents and Lenders from time
to time parties thereto, and Société Générale, as Agent. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Loan Servicing Agreement and the Sale and Contribution
Agreement dated as of October 11, 2018 (the “Sale and Contribution Agreement”) by and between the Equityholder (as seller) and the Borrower (as purchaser), as applicable.

 2. The Retention
Provider hereby agrees and confirms for the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender for so long as any Obligation remains outstanding and any European Retention Requirements so require:














	 	a.	 that it has retained at all times
since the Third Amendment Effective Date, and irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes that it will directly retain, in each case, as originator for the purposes of the European Retention Requirements, on an ongoing basis, a material net economic
interest in the securitisation transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form specified in paragraph (d) of Article 6(3) of the Securitisation Regulation, being retention of the first loss tranche and, if necessary, other tranches
having the same or a more severe risk profile than those transferred or sold to investors and not maturing any earlier than those transferred or sold to investors, through the Retention Provider subscribing for and maintaining 100% of all equity
interests in the Borrower, in a nominal amount of not less than 5% of the nominal value of all of the Collateral Obligations owned by the Borrower (such material net economic interest, the “Retained Interest”);



  

	 	b.	 that at any time the excess of
(i) the sum of the aggregate Principal Balance of all Eligible Collateral Obligations then held by the Borrower and the amount then standing to the credit of the Principal Collection Account (including any portion of such amount invested in
Permitted Investments) (the “Aggregate Principal Asset Balance”) over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding at such time shall be equal to or greater than 5% of the Aggregate Principal Asset Balance;



  

	 	c.	 that it shall not and shall
procure that its Affiliates do not, sell, hedge or otherwise mitigate its credit risk under or associated with the Retained Interest, except to the extent permitted in accordance with the EU Retention Requirements; 



 

	 	d.	 that it established the
transaction contemplated by the Loan Servicing Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; 


  

	 	e.	 that, on any date on which the
Borrower acquires a Collateral Obligation or a Collateral Obligation is substituted by the Borrower, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Collateral Obligations held by the Borrower (immediately following any acquisition, or
substitution of any Collateral Obligations on such date of determination) in respect of which the Retention Provider, either itself or through related entities (including the Borrower), directly or indirectly, was involved or will be involved in
negotiating the original agreement which created the relevant Collateral Obligation (such Collateral Obligations, “Retention Provider Originated Collateral Obligations”) will be greater than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of all Collateral Obligations then held by the Borrower; 


  

	 	f.	 that it has a business strategy
and the capacity to meet payment obligations consistent with a broader business enterprise and involving material support from capital, assets, fees or other income available to it, relying neither on the Collateral Obligations or other exposures
securitized by it nor on the Retained Interest or any other interests retained or proposed to be retained, as well as any corresponding income from such exposures and interests; 















	 	g.	 that its responsible
decision-makers have the required experience to enable it to pursue its business strategy, as well as an adequate corporate governance arrangement; 



 

	 	h.	 that each Retention Provider
Originated Collateral Obligation acquired by or substituted to, the Borrower, whether prior to or following the Third Amendment Effective Date, has been and will be originated on the basis of sound and well-defined criteria and clearly established
processes for approving, amending, renewing and financing those credits and it has effective systems in place to apply those criteria and processes to ensure that credit-granting is based on a thorough assessment of each obligor’s
creditworthiness; 


  

	 	i.	 that it has not and will not
select Collateral Obligations to be acquired by or substituted to, the Borrower with the aim of rendering losses on such Collateral Obligations, measured over the period during which Obligations are outstanding or over a period of four
(4) years where the period during which Obligations are outstanding is longer than four (4) years, higher than the losses over the same period on comparable assets held on its balance sheet; 



 

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



 

	 	i.	 on a monthly basis (concurrent
with the delivery of each Monthly Report); 


  

	 	ii.	 upon any written request therefor
by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Lender delivered as a result of a material change in (x) the performance of the Collateral Obligations, (y) the risk characteristics of the transaction, or (z) the Collateral Obligations from time to
time; and 


  

	 	iii.	 promptly upon the Borrower and/or
the Retention Provider becoming aware of any material breach of the obligations included in any Transaction Document; 


  

	 	k.	 that it will, promptly following
a request by any Lender, provide a refreshed letter in substantially the form of this letter in connection with a material amendment of any Transaction Document, in each case where the Borrower has received a request for the same from a
Lender; 


  

	 	l.	 it shall notify the Borrower and
the Agent as soon as reasonably practical if for any reason: (i) it has ceased to hold the Retained Interest in accordance with paragraph (a) above; or (ii) it has failed in any way to comply with any of the undertakings set out in
paragraphs (b), (c), (e), (g) or (h) above; 















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



3. The Retention Provider
hereby makes the following representations for the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender: 
  

	 	a.	 the Retention Provider is GSO
Direct Lending Fund-D LP duly established and validly existing under the laws of Delaware, and has full power and authority to own its assets proposed to be owned by it including the Retained Interest and to transact the business in which it is
presently engaged; 


  

	 	b.	 the Retention Provider has full
power and authority to execute and deliver this letter and to perform all of its obligations required hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize this letter on the terms and conditions hereof and the execution, delivery and
performance of this letter and the performance of all obligations imposed upon it hereunder; 


  

	 	c.	 no consent of any other person,
including, without limitation, investors in and creditors of the Retention Provider, and no license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority,
other than those that have been or shall be obtained in connection with this letter, is required by the Retention Provider in connection with this letter or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this letter or the
obligations imposed upon it hereunder; 


  

	 	d.	 this letter constitutes the
legally valid and binding obligations of the Retention Provider enforceable against the Retention Provider in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to (i) the effect of bankruptcy, examination, insolvency or similar laws
affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, as such laws would apply in the event of any bankruptcy, examination, receivership, insolvency or similar event applicable to the Retention Provider and (ii) general equitable principles
(whether enforceability of such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity); and 


  

	 	e.	 the execution, delivery and
performance of this letter will not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation binding on the Retention Provider, or any order, judgment, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority binding on the Retention
Provider, or the organizational documents of, or any securities issued by, the Retention Provider, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect in a material manner its ability to perform its obligations
hereunder. 



4. The Retention Provider
hereby confirms that it has reviewed the Transaction Documents and has participated in the selection of the Collateral Obligations transferred to the Borrower prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date. 













5. The Retention Provider
hereby agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by, the provisions set forth in Section 17.18 of the Loan Servicing Agreement. 

6. This letter shall not be
assignable by the Retention Provider without the prior written consent of the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender. This letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the
Retention Provider, the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender. This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of this letter by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. This letter supersedes all prior understandings, whether written or oral, between
us with respect to the matters set forth herein. 
 7. THIS LETTER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each of the parties
hereto and, by its acceptance hereof, each addressee of this letter hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States
of America sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition
or enforcement of any judgment, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, (b) waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby in any New York State court or in any such Federal court and (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

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