a Maryland corporation (“Seller”) and BDCA HELVETICA FUNDING, LTD., an exempted company incorporated
with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Buyer”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Indenture (defined below).


 


RECITALS:


 


A.           The
Buyer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (“Trustee”) are parties to that certain Indenture
dated as of April 7, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”).


 


B.           The
parties hereto desire that Seller may sell certain loans to Buyer from time to time upon the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement (each such sale, a “Transaction”), which loans may be pledged by the Buyer to the
Trustee under the Indenture.


 


C.           The
parties intend each Transaction to be treated as an absolute transfer of the subject loan(s).


 


NOW, THEREFORE, for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


 


1.           Sale
of Initial Loans. Seller, by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, does hereby transfer, sell, assign, set over,
and otherwise convey to the Buyer, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as expressly set forth herein) all of
Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the loans identified on Schedule 1 attached hereto (the “Initial
Loans” and, together with any Additional Loans (as defined below), each a “Loan” and
collectively, the “Loans”), all interest accruing thereon, all monies due or to become due thereon, and
all collections in respect thereof received on or after the Closing Date and all proceeds of the foregoing. The purchase
price for the Initial Loans conveyed to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable on the Closing Date in (i) cash in
an amount equal to the fair market value of such Initial Loans as mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer, (ii) with the
consent of the Seller, by means of an increase in the equity value in the Buyer (which increase shall confer an indirect
benefit on Seller), (iii) the Seller’s acquisition of the Class A Notes, and/or (iv) by a combination of clauses (i),
(ii) and/or (iii) and/or other consideration. For avoidance of doubt, this computation of the initial purchase price shall
assume no reinvestment in new Loans.


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


2.           Sale
of Supplemental Loans. From time to time, Seller may designate additional loans (each such loan, an “Additional
Loan”) which Seller desires to sell to Buyer, and which Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller. Upon execution and
delivery of a written agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each such agreement, a “Supplemental
Conveyance Agreement”) on a transfer date mutually acceptable to each of Seller and Buyer (each such transfer date,
a “Transfer Date”), Seller shall transfer, sell, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to the Buyer,
without recourse, representation or warranty (except as expressly set forth in the applicable Supplemental Conveyance
Agreement) all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Additional Loans identified on Schedule
A attached to the applicable Supplemental Conveyance Agreement (which schedule shall amend, modify and supplement Schedule
I attached hereto effective as of such Transfer Date with respect to such Additional Loans transferred on such Transfer
Date, without any further action of the parties hereto), all interest accruing thereon, all monies due or to become due
thereon, and all collections in respect thereof received on or after the applicable Transfer Date and all proceeds of the
foregoing. The purchase price for the Additional Loans conveyed to Buyer under this Agreement and the applicable Supplemental
Conveyance Agreement shall be payable on the Transfer Date in (i) cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such
Additional Loans as mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer, (ii) with the consent of the Seller, by means of an increase in
the equity value in the Buyer held by Seller, and/or (iii) by a combination of clauses (i) and/or (ii) and/or other
consideration. For avoidance of doubt, this computation of initial purchase price with respect to Additional Loans shall
assume no reinvestment in new Loans.


 


3.           Further
Action. Seller and Buyer agree to take or cause to be taken such actions and to execute such documents as are reasonably necessary
and requested by Buyer to perfect and protect the interests of Buyer and its assignees in each Loan and the proceeds thereof, and
to effectuate the absolute transfer from Seller to Buyer of each Loan, including, without limitation, the execution of an assignment
of the Loan and loan documents for each Loan, the execution of an endorsement to each promissory note (if any), the execution and/or
delivery of any financing statements or amendments thereto or equivalent documents relating to the Loans for filing under the provisions
of the UCC or other law of any applicable jurisdiction. To the extent the portion of any Initial Loan that is being transferred
to Buyer is evidenced by a promissory note for which the face amount exceeds the portion of such Initial Loan being transferred
to Seller, Buyer shall cooperate with Seller to obtain replacement promissory notes from the Portfolio Asset Obligor in amounts
reflecting the portion of the Initial Loan transferred to Buyer and the portion retained by Seller and Buyer shall deliver such
replacement promissory note to the Custodian in substitution of the promissory note delivered on the date hereof.


 


4.           Representations
and Warranties.


 


(a)          Seller
represents and warrants to Buyer that, as of the date of each Transaction, Seller holds each Loan sold in such Transaction
free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims, rights and options of any kind or character whatsoever created or suffered
by, through or under Seller. Except as expressly provided in this section, Seller expressly disclaims any other warranty,
representation or covenant as to the character, assignability and enforceability of the Loans sold to Buyer. It is understood
by Seller and Buyer that, subject to Seller’s representation and warranty in this section, Buyer will acquire each Loan

Buyer’s direction, all Underlying Instruments related to the Initial Loans required to be delivered to the Custodian
pursuant to and in accordance with the Indenture, including any applicable promissory note that exists for each Initial Loan
that is evidenced by a promissory note, which Initial Loans with a promissory note are identified on Schedule 1
attached hereto.


 


5.           Absolute
Transfer. The parties intend each Transaction to be treated as an absolute transfer, conveying good title free and clear of
any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others, from Seller to Buyer. Seller shall have no risk of loss with respect to any
Loans sold to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, and shall have no right or duty to repurchase any such Loan. Each of Buyer and
Seller hereby acknowledges that it intends (other than for Federal, state and local income tax purposes) the Transactions contemplated
by this Agreement to be sales and purchases, respectively. If, notwithstanding such intentions, the Transactions contemplated hereby
are recharacterized as a secured loan by any relevant governmental, judicial or other authority for any reason whatsoever, whether
for limited purposes or otherwise, the Seller hereby grants to the Buyer and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties
(as defined in the Indenture) a security interest under Article 9 of the UCC in all of its right, title and interest in, to and
under, in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located, (a) each Loan (the
“Transferred Property”) and all payments on or in respect of any of the foregoing and (b) all proceeds, accessions,
profits, income benefits, substitutions and replacements, whether voluntary or involuntary, of and to any of the Transferred Property
(collectively, the “Collateral”) as collateral security for the obligations of the Seller to Buyer
hereunder. If the Transactions contemplated hereby are recharacterized as a secured loan, this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under the laws of the State of New York and, in addition to any other rights available under this Agreement and under
any of the Collateral or otherwise available at law, the Trustee, acting on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have all the rights
and remedies of a secured party under the laws of the State of New York and other applicable law to enforce the security interests
granted hereby and, in addition, shall have the right, subject to compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law,
to sell or apply any Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof at public or private sale.


 


6.           Miscellaneous.


 


(a)          Modifications.

may not be modified, amended, or otherwise changed in any manner, except by an instrument in writing executed by each of the parties
hereto.


 


(b)          Governing
Law. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that all questions with respect to the construction of this Agreement, and the rights and
liabilities of the parties hereto, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(c)          Severability. In
the event any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such
holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof.

and Buyer that, subject to Seller’s representation and warranty in this section, Buyer will
acquire each Additional Loan on an “as is” basis.


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


(ii) Seller
represents and warrants to Buyer that, as of the date of each Transaction, Seller has delivered to the Custodian, at the Buyer’s
direction, all Underlying Instruments related to the Additional Loans required to be delivered to the Custodian pursuant to and
in accordance with the Indenture, including any applicable promissory note that exists for each Additional Loan that is evidenced
by a promissory note, which Additional Loans with a promissory note are identified on Schedule A attached hereto.


 


(d)          Absolute
Transfer. The parties intend each Transaction to be treated as an absolute transfer, conveying good title free and clear
of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others, from Seller to Buyer. Seller shall have no risk of loss with respect
to any Additional Loans sold to Buyer pursuant to this Supplemental Conveyance, and shall have no right or duty to repurchase
any such Additional Loan. Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledges that it intends (other than for Federal, state and
local income tax purposes) the Transactions contemplated by this Supplemental Conveyance to be sales and purchases,
respectively. If, notwithstanding such intentions, the Transactions contemplated hereby are recharacterized as a secured loan
by any relevant governmental, judicial or other authority for any reason whatsoever, whether for limited purposes or
otherwise, the Seller hereby grants to the Buyer and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the
Indenture) a security interest under Article 9 of the UCC in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under, in each
case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located, (a) each Additional Loan (the “Additional
Transferred Property”) and all payments on or in respect of any of the foregoing and (b) all
proceeds, accessions, profits, income benefits, substitutions and replacements, whether voluntary or involuntary, of and to
any of the Additional Transferred Property (collectively, the “Additional Collateral”) as collateral
security for the obligations of the Seller to Buyer hereunder. If the Transactions contemplated hereby are recharacterized as
a secured loan, this Supplemental Conveyance shall constitute a security agreement under the laws of the State of New York
and, in addition to any other rights available under this Supplemental Conveyance and under any of the Additional Collateral
or otherwise available at law, the Trustee, acting on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have all the rights and remedies
of a secured party under the laws of the State of New York and other applicable law to enforce the security interests granted
hereby and, in addition, shall have the right, subject to compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, to
sell or apply any Additional Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof at public or private sale.


 


4.             Ratification
of the Master Loan Purchase Agreement. The Master Loan Purchase Agreement is hereby ratified, and all references to the “Master
Loan Purchase Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed
from and after the Addition Date to be a reference to the Master Loan Purchase Agreement as supplemented and amended by this
Supplemental Conveyance. Except as expressly amended hereby, all the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and
conditions of the Master Loan Purchase Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full
force and effect in accordance with its terms and except as expressly provided herein shall not constitute or be deemed
to constitute a waiver of compliance with or consent to non-compliance with any term or provision of the Master Loan Purchase
Agreement.

Law. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that all questions with respect to the construction of this Supplemental Conveyance,
and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York.


 


7.             Severability. In
the event any provision of this Supplemental Conveyance shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of
competent jurisdiction, such holding shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof.


 


8.             Entire
Agreement. This Supplemental Conveyance constitutes the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes any prior written
or oral agreements between them concerning the subject matter contained herein with respect to the Additional Loans. There
are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between the parties, relating to the
subject matter contained in this Supplemental Conveyance, which are not fully expressed herein.


 


9.             Successors. This
Supplemental Conveyance shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of Seller’s and Buyer’s
successors and assigns.


 


10.           Authorization. The
entities, persons and/or officers executing this Supplemental Conveyance on behalf of the respective parties are
fully empowered to do so, on behalf of Buyer and Seller.


 


11.           Counterparts. This
Supplemental Conveyance may be executed by facsimile or other electronic means, and in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The
signature page and acknowledgement of any counterpart may be removed therefrom and attached to any other counterpart to
evidence execution thereof by all of the parties hereto without affecting the validity thereof.


 


12.           Enforcement. The
waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Supplemental Conveyance shall not operate as a waiver of any future breach
of any such provision or any other provision hereof.
