 This Investment Management Agreement made this ______ day of ______, 2022, is made by and between AGTB Private BDC,
a Delaware statutory trust (herein referred to as the “Fund”) and AGTB Fund Manager, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (herein referred to as the “Adviser”) (the “Agreement”). 

WHEREAS, the Fund is a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a
business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”); 

WHEREAS, the Adviser is an investment adviser that has registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”);
and 
 WHEREAS, the Fund desires to retain the Adviser to furnish investment advisory services to the Fund on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, and the Adviser wishes to be retained to provide such services. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:

have the power and authority on behalf of the Fund to effectuate its investment decisions for the Fund, including the execution and delivery of all documents relating to the Fund’s investments and the placing of orders for other purchase or

 In addition, prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the
following provision Section 2(xxxix) shall apply. 
 (xxxix) In addition to the compensation paid to the Adviser
pursuant to Section 5, the Fund shall reimburse the Adviser for all expenses of the Fund incurred by the Adviser as well as the actual cost of goods and services used for or by the Fund and obtained from entities not affiliated with the
Adviser. The Adviser or its affiliates may be reimbursed for the administrative services performed by it or such affiliates on behalf of the Fund pursuant to any separate administration or co-administration
agreement with the Adviser; however, no reimbursement shall be permitted for services for which the Adviser is entitled to compensation by way of a separate fee. Excluded from the allowable reimbursement shall be: 

(A) rent or depreciation, utilities, capital equipment, and other administrative items of the Adviser; and 

(B) salaries, fringe benefits, travel expenses and other administrative items incurred or allocated to any Controlling Person
of the Adviser. The term “Controlling Person” shall mean a person, whatever his or her title, who performs functions for the Adviser similar to those of (a) the chairman or other member of a board of directors, (b) executive
officers or (c) those holding 10% or more equity interest in the Adviser, or a person having the power to direct or cause the direction of the Adviser, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. 

From time to time, the Adviser, the Administrator or their affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. The Fund will
reimburse the Adviser, the Administrator or such affiliates thereof for any such amounts paid on the Fund’s behalf. From time to time, the Adviser or the Administrator may defer or waive fees and/or rights to be reimbursed for expenses. All of
the foregoing expenses will ultimately be borne by the Fund’s shareholders. 
 3. Transactions with Affiliates. The Adviser is
authorized on behalf of the Fund, from time to time when deemed to be in the best interests of the Fund and to the extent permitted by applicable law, to purchase and/or sell securities in which the Adviser or any of its affiliates underwrites,
deals in and/or makes a market and/or may perform or seek to perform investment banking services for issuers of such securities. The Adviser is further authorized, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to select brokers (including any brokers
affiliated with the Adviser) for the execution of trades for the Fund. 
 4. Best Execution; Research Services. 

(a) The Adviser is authorized, for the purchase and sale of the Fund’s portfolio securities, to employ such dealers and
brokers as may, in the judgment of the Adviser, implement the policy of the Fund to obtain the best results, taking into account such factors as price, including dealer spread, the size, type and difficulty of the


  
 10 













 
transaction involved, the firm’s general execution and operational facilities and the firm’s risk in positioning the securities involved. Consistent with this policy, the Adviser is
authorized to direct the execution of the Fund’s portfolio transactions to dealers and brokers furnishing statistical information or research deemed by the Adviser to be useful or valuable to the performance of its investment advisory functions
for the Fund. It is understood that in these circumstances, as contemplated by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the commissions paid may be higher than those which the Fund might
otherwise have paid to another broker if those services had not been provided. Information so received will be in addition to and not in lieu of the services required to be performed by the Adviser. It is understood that the expenses of the Adviser
will not necessarily be reduced as a result of the receipt of such information or research. Research services furnished to the Adviser by brokers who effect securities transactions for the Fund may be used by the Adviser in servicing other
investment companies, entities or funds and accounts which it manages. Similarly, research services furnished to the Adviser by brokers who effect securities transactions for other investment companies, entities or funds and accounts which the
Adviser manages may be used by the Adviser in servicing the Fund. It is understood that not all of these research services are used by the Adviser in managing any particular account, including the Fund. 

The Adviser and its affiliates may aggregate purchase or sale orders for the assets with purchase or sale orders for the same
security for other clients’ accounts of the Adviser or of its affiliates, the Adviser’s own accounts and hold proprietary positions in accordance with its current aggregation and allocation policy (collectively, the “Advisory
Clients”), but only if (x) in the Adviser’s reasonable judgment such aggregation results in an overall economic or other benefit to the assets taking into consideration the advantageous selling or purchase price, brokerage commission
and other expenses and factors and (y) the Adviser’s actions with respect to aggregating orders for multiple Advisory Clients, as well as the Fund, are consistent with applicable law. However, the Adviser is under no obligation to
aggregate any such orders under any circumstances. 
 (b) Excess Brokerage Commissions. The Adviser is hereby
authorized, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, to cause the Fund to pay a member of a national securities exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of
commission another member of such exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Adviser determines in good faith, taking into account such factors as price (including the applicable brokerage commission or
dealer spread), size of order, difficulty of execution, and operational facilities of the firm and the firm’s risk and skill in positioning blocks of securities, that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and/or research services provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or its overall responsibilities with respect to the Fund’s portfolio, and constitutes the best net results for
the Fund. 

  
 11 













 In addition, prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the
following Section 4(c) shall apply. 
 (c) All Front End Fees (as applicable and defined in the Fund’s
Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”)) shall be reasonable and shall not exceed 18% of the gross proceeds of any offering, regardless of the source of payment and the percentage of gross
proceeds of any offering committed to investment shall be at least eighty-two percent (82%). All items of compensation to underwriters or dealers, including, but not limited to, selling commissions, expenses,
rights of first refusal, consulting fees, finders’ fees and all other items of compensation of any kind or description paid by the Fund, directly or indirectly, shall be taken into consideration in computing the amount of allowable Front End
Fees. 
 5. Compensation of the Adviser. The Fund agrees to pay, and the Adviser agrees to accept, as compensation for the services
provided by the Adviser hereunder, a base management fee (“Base Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”) as hereinafter set forth. The Fund shall make any payments due hereunder to the Adviser or to the
Adviser’s designee as the Adviser may otherwise direct. 
 (a) Base Management Fee. The Base Management Fee is
payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.25% of the value of Fund’s net assets as of the beginning of the first business day of the month. For the first calendar month in which the Fund has operations, net assets will be measured as
the beginning net assets as of the date on which the Fund begins operations. 
 (b) Incentive Fee. The Incentive Fee
will consist of two components that are independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on a percentage of the Fund’s income and a portion is based
on a percentage of the Fund’s capital gains, each as described below. 
 (i) Incentive Fee on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income. The portion based on the Fund’s income is based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns. “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns” means, as the context requires, either the dollar value of, or percentage rate of return on the value of the Fund’s net assets at the end of the
immediate preceding quarter from, interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Fund receives from portfolio
companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Fund’s operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the Base Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement, and any interest expense or fees on any credit
facilities or outstanding debt and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred shares, but excluding the incentive fee and any distribution or shareholder servicing fees). 

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns include, in the case of investments
with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with pay-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Fund
has not yet received in cash. Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. 

  
 12 













 Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment
Income Returns, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Fund’s net assets at the end of the immediate preceding quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of return of 1.25% per quarter (5.0% annualized). 

The Fund will pay the Adviser an incentive fee quarterly in arrears with respect to the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns in each calendar quarter as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	 no incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns
in any calendar quarter in which the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.25% per quarter; 



 

	 	•	 	 100% of the dollar amount of the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net
Investment Income Returns with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than a rate of return of 1.43% (5.72%
annualized). This is referred to as Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.43%) as the “catch-up”;
and 


  

	 	•	 	 12.5% of the dollar amount of the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net
Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceed a rate of return of 1.43% (5.72% annualized). 


 These
calculations will be appropriately pro-rated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases by the Fund during the relevant quarter. 

(ii) Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains. The second component of the Incentive Fee, the Capital Gains Incentive Fee,
is payable at the end of each calendar year in arrears. 
 The amount payable equals: 

 

	 	•	 	 12.5% of cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of such calendar year, computed net of
all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital gains as calculated in accordance with GAAP. 



  
 13 













 Each year, the fee paid for the capital gains incentive fee is net of the
aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee for all prior periods. The Fund will accrue, but will not pay, a capital gains incentive fee with respect to unrealized appreciation because a capital gains incentive fee would be
owed to the Adviser if the Fund were to sell the relevant investment and realize a capital gain. In no event will the capital gains incentive fee payable pursuant to this Agreement be in excess of the amount permitted by the Advisers Act, including
Section 205 thereof. 
 The fees that are payable under this Agreement for any partial period will be appropriately
prorated. 
 6. Representations and Warranties. 

(a) The Adviser represents and warrants that it is duly registered and authorized as an investment adviser under the Advisers
Act, and the Adviser agrees to maintain effective all material requisite registrations, authorizations and licenses, as the case may be, until the termination of this Agreement. 

In addition, prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the following provisions in Sections 6(b) – (h) shall
apply. 
 (b) The Adviser shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared and distributed to shareholders during each
year the following reports of the Fund (either included in a periodic report filed with the SEC or distributed in a separate report) (i) within sixty (60) days of the end of each quarter, a report containing the same financial information
contained in the Fund’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Fund under the Exchange Act and (ii) within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the end of the Fund’s fiscal year,
(a) an annual report that shall include financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP which are audited and reported on by independent certified public accountants; (b) a report of the material activities of the Fund during
the period covered by the report; (c) where forecasts have been provided to the Fund’s shareholders, a table comparing the forecasts previously provided with the actual results during the period covered by the report; and (d) a report
setting forth distributions to the Fund’s shareholders for the period covered thereby and separately identifying distributions from: (A) cash flow from operations during the period; (B) cash flow from operations during a prior period
which have been held as reserves; (C) proceeds from disposition of assets; and (D) reserves from the gross proceeds of the Fund’s offering. 

(c) From time to time and not less than quarterly, the Fund shall cause the Adviser to review the Fund’s accounts to
determine whether cash distributions are appropriate. The Fund may, subject to authorization by the Board of Trustees, distribute pro rata to the Fund’s shareholders funds which the Board of Trustees deems unnecessary to retain in the Fund. The
Board of Trustees may from time to time authorize the Fund to declare and pay to the Fund’s shareholders such dividends or other distributions, in cash or other assets of the Fund or in securities of the Fund, including in shares of one class
or series payable to the holders of the shares of another class or series, or from any other source as the Board of Trustees in its discretion shall determine. Any such cash distributions to the Adviser shall be made only in conjunction with
distributions to shareholders and only out of funds properly allocated to the Adviser’s account. All such cash distributions shall be made only out of funds legally available therefor pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended
from time to time. 

  
 14 













 (d) The Adviser shall, in its sole discretion, temporarily place proceeds
from offerings by the Fund of its equity securities into short-term, highly liquid investments which, in its reasonable judgment, afford appropriate safety of principal during such time as it is determining the composition and allocation of the
portfolio of the Fund and the nature, timing and implementation of any changes thereto pursuant to Section 1 of the this Agreement; provided however, that the Adviser shall be under no fiduciary obligation to select any such short-term, highly
liquid investment based solely on any yield or return of such investment. The Adviser shall cause any proceeds of the offering of Fund securities not committed for investment within the later of two years from the date of effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or one year from termination of the offering, unless a longer period is permitted by the applicable State Administrator, to be paid as a distribution to the shareholders of the Fund as a return of capital without deduction of
a sales load. 
 7. Limitations on the Engagement of the Adviser. The services of the Adviser to the Fund are not exclusive, and the
Adviser may engage in any other business or render similar or different services to others including, without limitation, the direct or indirect sponsorship or management of other investment based accounts or commingled pools of capital, however
structured, having investment objectives similar to those of the Fund, so long as its services to the Fund hereunder are not impaired thereby, and nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the right of any manager, partner, officer or
employee of the Adviser to engage in any other business or to devote his or her time and attention in part to any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to receive any fees or compensation in connection therewith (including
fees for serving as a director of, or providing consulting services to, one or more of the Fund’s portfolio companies, subject to applicable law). So long as this Agreement or any extension, renewal or amendment remains in effect, the Adviser
shall be the only investment adviser for the Fund, subject to the Adviser’s right to enter into sub-advisory agreements. It is understood that the Adviser shall not have any obligation to recommend for
purchase or sale any loans which its principals, affiliates or employees may purchase or sell for its or their own accounts or for any other client or account if, in the opinion of the Adviser, such transaction or investment appears unsuitable,
impractical or undesirable for the Fund. Nothing herein shall be construed as constituting the Adviser an agent of the Fund. The Adviser assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder. It is
understood that trustees, officers, employees and shareholders of the Fund are or may become interested in the Adviser and its affiliates, as trustees, officers, employees, partners, shareholders, members, managers or otherwise, and that the Adviser
and trustees, officers, employees, partners, shareholders, members and managers of the Adviser and its affiliates are or may become similarly interested in the Fund as shareholders or otherwise. Subject to any restrictions prescribed by law, by the
provisions of the Code of Ethics of the Fund and the Adviser and by the Adviser’s Allocation Policy, the Adviser and its members, officers, employees and agents shall be free from time to time to acquire, possess, manage and dispose of
securities or other investment assets for their own accounts, for the accounts of their family members, for the account of any entity in which they have a beneficial interest or for the accounts of others for whom they may provide investment
advisory, brokerage or other services (collectively, 

  
 15 













 
“Managed Accounts”), in transactions that may or may not correspond with transactions effected or positions held by the Fund or to give advice and take action with respect to Managed
Accounts that differs from advice given to, or action taken on behalf of, the Fund; provided that the Adviser allocates investment opportunities to the Fund, over a period of time on a fair and equitable basis compared to investment opportunities
extended to other Managed Accounts. The Adviser is not, and shall not be, obligated to initiate the purchase or sale for the Fund of any security that the Adviser and its members, officers, employees or agents may purchase or sell for its or their
own accounts or for the account of any other client if, in the opinion of the Adviser, such transaction or investment appears unsuitable or undesirable for the Fund. 

The Adviser and its affiliates may face conflicts of interest as described in the Fund’s Registration Statement and/or the Fund’s
periodic filings with the SEC (as such disclosures may be updated from time to time) and such disclosures have been provided, and any updates will be provided, to the Board of Trustees in connection with its consideration of this Agreement and any
future renewal of this Agreement. 
 8. Responsibility of Dual Directors, Officers and/or Employees. If any person who is a
manager, partner, officer or employee of the Adviser or the Administrator is or becomes a trustee, officer and/or employee of the Fund and acts as such in any business of the Fund, then such manager, partner, officer and/or employee of the Adviser
or the Administrator shall be deemed to be acting in such capacity solely for the Fund, and not as a manager, partner, officer and/or employee of the Adviser or the Administrator or under the control or direction of the Adviser or the Administrator,
even if paid by the Adviser or the Administrator. 
 9. Limitation of Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification. 

(a) The Adviser and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or
entity affiliated with it (the “Indemnified Parties”) shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any act or omission or any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement
relates, provided that the Adviser shall not be protected against any liability to the Fund or its shareholders to which the Adviser would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the
performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations (“disabling conduct”). An Indemnified Party may consult with counsel and accountants in respect of the Fund’s affairs and shall be fully
protected and justified in any action or inaction which is taken in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel and accountants; provided, that such counsel or accountants were selected with reasonable care. Absent disabling conduct, the
Fund will indemnify the Indemnified Parties against, and hold them harmless from, any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of the
Adviser’s services under this Agreement or otherwise as adviser for the Fund. The Indemnified Parties shall not be liable under this Agreement or otherwise for any loss due to the mistake, action, inaction, negligence, dishonesty, fraud or bad
faith of any broker or other agent; provided, that such broker or other agent shall have been selected, engaged or retained by the Adviser in good faith, unless such action or inaction was made by reason of disabling conduct, or in the case of a
criminal action or proceeding, where the Adviser had reasonable cause to believe its conduct was unlawful. 

  
 16 













 Indemnification shall be made only following: (i) a final decision on
the merits by a court or other body before which the proceeding was brought that the Indemnified Party was not liable by reason of disabling conduct or (ii) in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination, based upon a review of
the facts, that the Indemnified Party was not liable by reason of disabling conduct by (a) the vote of a majority of a quorum of trustees of the Fund who are neither “interested persons” of the Fund nor parties to the proceeding
(“disinterested non-party trustees”) or (b) an independent legal counsel in a written opinion. 

An Indemnified Party shall be entitled to advances from the Fund for payment of the reasonable expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the matter as to which it is seeking indemnification in the manner and to the fullest extent permissible under law. Prior to any such advance, the Indemnified Party shall provide to the
Fund a written affirmation of its good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Fund has been met and a written undertaking to repay any such advance if it should ultimately be determined that the standard of
conduct has not been met. In addition, at least one of the following additional conditions shall be met: (a) the Indemnified Party shall provide a security in form and amount acceptable to the Fund for its undertaking; (b) the Fund is
insured against losses arising by reason of the advance; or (c) a majority of a quorum of disinterested non-party trustees or independent legal counsel, in a written opinion, shall have determined, based
on a review of facts readily available to the Fund at the time the advance is proposed to be made, that there is reason to believe that the Indemnified Party will ultimately be found to be entitled to indemnification. 

The following provisions in Sections 9(b) – (c) shall (i) not apply in respect of any principal underwriter of the Fund that is an Affiliate,
as such term is defined in the Declaration of Trust, or the Administrator and (ii) apply only prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 9(a) to the contrary, the Fund shall not provide for indemnification of an Indemnified Party
for any liability or loss suffered by an Indemnified Party, nor shall the Fund provide that any of the Indemnified Parties be held harmless for any loss or liability suffered by the Fund, unless all of the following conditions are met: 

(i) the Fund has determined, in good faith, that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in the best
interests of the Fund; 
 (ii) the Fund has determined, in good faith, that the Indemnified Party was acting on behalf of or
performing services for the Fund; 

  
 17 













 (iii) the Fund has determined, in good faith, that such liability or loss
was not the result of (A) negligence or misconduct, in the case that the Indemnified Party is the Adviser or an Affiliate (as defined in the Declaration of Trust) of the Adviser, or (B) gross negligence or willful misconduct, in the
case that the Indemnified Party is a director of the Fund who is not also an officer of the Fund or the Adviser or an Affiliate of the Adviser; and 

(iv) such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the Fund’s net assets and not from the
Fund shareholders. 
 Furthermore, the Indemnified Party shall not be indemnified for any losses, liabilities or expenses
arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such party unless one or more of the following conditions are met: 

(A) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged material securities law violations
as to the Indemnified Party; 
 (B) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent
jurisdiction as to the Indemnified Party; or 
 (C) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims
against the Indemnified Party and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position
of any state securities regulatory authority in which Shares were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws. 

(c) The Fund may pay or reimburse reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in advance of
final disposition of a proceeding only if all of the following are satisfied: 
 (i) the proceeding relates to acts or
omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Fund; 
 (ii) the Indemnified Party provides
the Fund with written affirmation of such Indemnified Party’s good faith belief that the Indemnified Party has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Fund; 

(iii) the legal proceeding was initiated by a third party who is not a Fund shareholder, or, if by a Fund shareholder acting in
his or her capacity as such, a court of competent jurisdiction approves such advancement; and 
 (iv) the Indemnified Party
provides the Fund with a written agreement to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Fund, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnified Party did not comply with the requisite
standard of conduct and is not entitled to indemnification 

  
 18 













 10. Effectiveness, Duration and Termination of Agreement. 

(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above. This Agreement may be terminated at any time,
without the payment of any penalty, on 60 days’ written notice by the Fund, by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as defined by the Investment Company Act) or by the vote of the Fund’s trustees or on
120 days’ written notice by the Adviser. The provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the Adviser shall remain entitled to the benefits thereof, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement.
Further, notwithstanding the termination or expiration of this Agreement as aforesaid, the Adviser shall be entitled to any amounts owed under Sections 2 or 5 through the date of termination or expiration, and Section 9 shall continue in force
and effect and apply to the Adviser and its representatives as and to the extent applicable. 
 (b) This Agreement shall
continue in effect for two years from the date hereof, or to the extent consistent with the requirements of the Investment Company Act, from the date of the Fund’s election to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act, and
thereafter shall continue automatically for successive annual periods, provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Board of Trustees, or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of the Fund and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Fund’s Board of Trustees who are not parties to this Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act)
of any such party, in accordance with the requirements of the Investment Company Act. 
 (c) This Agreement will
automatically terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 15(a)(4) of the Investment Company Act). 

In addition, prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the following Sections 10(d) – (f) shall apply.

 (d) After the termination of this Agreement, the Adviser shall not be entitled to compensation for further
services provided hereunder, except that it shall be entitled to receive from the Fund within 30 days after the effective date of such termination all unpaid reimbursements and all earned but unpaid fees payable to the Adviser prior to termination
of this Agreement, including any deferred fees. The Adviser shall promptly upon termination: 
 (i) Deliver to the Board of
Trustees a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all money held by it, covering the period following the date of the last accounting furnished to the Board of Trustees; 

(ii) Deliver to the Board of Trustees all assets and documents of the Fund then in custody of the Adviser; and 

  
 19 













 (iii) Cooperate with the Fund to provide an orderly management transition.

 (e) Without the approval of holders of a majority of the Shares entitled to vote on the matter, or such other approval as
may be required under the mandatory provisions of any applicable laws or regulations, or other provisions of the Declaration of Trust, the Adviser shall not: (i) modify this Agreement except for amendments that do not adversely affect the
rights of the shareholders; (ii) appoint a new Adviser (other than a sub-adviser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and applicable law); (iii) sell all or substantially all of the Fund’s assets
other than in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business or as otherwise permitted by law; or (iv) except as otherwise permitted herein, voluntarily withdraw as the Adviser unless such withdrawal would not affect the tax status of the Fund
and would not materially adversely affect the shareholders 
 (f) The Fund may terminate the Adviser’s interest in the
Fund’s revenues, expenses, income, losses, distributions and capital by payment of an amount equal to the then present fair market value of the terminated Adviser’s interest, determined by agreement of the terminated Adviser and the Fund.
If the Fund and the Adviser cannot agree upon such amount, the parties will submit to binding arbitration which cost will be borne equally by the Adviser and the Fund. The method of payment to the terminated Adviser must be fair and must protect the
solvency and liquidity of the Fund. 
 11. Conflicts of Interest and Prohibited Activities. 

Prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the following provisions in this Section 11 shall apply.

 (a) The Adviser is not hereby granted or entitled to an exclusive right to sell or exclusive employment to sell
assets for the Fund. 
 (b) The Adviser shall not: (i) receive or accept any rebate,
give-up or similar arrangement that is prohibited under applicable federal or state securities laws; (ii) participate in any reciprocal business arrangement that would circumvent provisions of applicable
federal or state securities laws governing conflicts of interest or investment restrictions; or (iii) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding that would circumvent the restrictions against dealing with affiliates or promoters
under applicable federal or state securities laws. 
 (c) The Adviser shall not directly or indirectly pay or award any fees
or commissions or other compensation to any person engaged to sell Shares or give investment advice to a potential shareholder; provided, however, that this subsection shall not prohibit the payment to a registered broker-dealer or other properly
licensed agent of sales commissions or other compensation (including cash compensation and non-cash compensation (as such terms are defined under FINRA Rule 2310)) for selling or distributing Shares, including
out of the Adviser’s own assets, including those amounts paid to the Adviser under this Agreement. 

  
 20 













 (d) The Adviser covenants that it shall not permit or cause to be permitted
the Fund’s funds to be commingled with the funds of any other person and the funds will be protected from the claims of affiliated companies. 

12. Access to Shareholder List. 

Prior to the qualification of the Shares as Covered Securities, the following provision in this Section 12 shall apply.

 If a shareholder requests a copy of the Shareholder List pursuant to Section 10.07 of the Fund’s charter or any
successor provision thereto (the “Charter Shareholder List Provision”), the Adviser is hereby authorized to request a copy of the Shareholder List from the Fund’s transfer agent and send a copy of the Shareholder List to any
shareholder so requesting in accordance with the charter Shareholder List Provision. The Adviser and the Board of Trustees shall be liable to any shareholder requesting the list for the costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by that
shareholder for compelling the production of the Shareholder List, and for actual damages suffered by any shareholder by reason of such refusal or neglect. It shall be a defense that the actual purpose and reason for the requests for inspection or
for a copy of the Shareholder List is to secure such list of shareholder or other information for the purpose of selling such list or copies thereof, or of using the same for a commercial purpose other than in the interest of the applicant as a
shareholder relative to the affairs of the Fund.
