 ARTICLE II 

THE FACILITY, ADVANCE PROCEDURES AND NOTES 

Section 2.1     Advances.  (a) On the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth in this Agreement, each Lender Group hereby agrees to make advances to or on behalf of the Borrower (individually, an “Advance” and collectively the “Advances”) from time to time on any date (each such
date on which an Advance is made, an “Advance Date”) during the period from the Effective Date to the end of the Revolving Period; provided that there shall be no more than two (2) Advance Dates during any calendar week.

 (b)      Under no circumstances shall any Lender make an Advance if, after
giving effect to such Advance and any purchase of Eligible Collateral Obligations in connection therewith, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances would exceed the lower of (i) the Facility Amount and (ii) the Borrowing
Base on such day. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, during the Revolving Period, the Borrower may borrow, reborrow, repay and prepay (subject to the provisions of Section 2.4) one or more Advances. 

Section 2.2     Funding of Advances.  (a) Subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2, the Borrower may request Advances hereunder by giving notice to the Administrative Agent, each Agent and the Collateral Agent of the proposed Advance at or prior to 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Advance Date. Such notice (herein called the “Advance Request”) shall be in the form of Exhibit C-1 and shall include (among other things) the proposed
Advance Date and amount of such proposed Advance, and shall, if applicable, be accompanied by an Asset Approval Request setting forth the information required therein with respect to the Collateral Obligations to be acquired by the Borrower on the
Advance Date (if applicable). The amount of any Advance shall at least be equal to the least of (x) $1,000,000, (y) the (1) Borrowing Base on such day minus (2) the Advances outstanding on such day and (z) the
(1) Facility Amount on such day minus (2) the Advances outstanding on such day before giving effect to the requested Advance as of such date. Any Advance Request given by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.2, shall
be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to lend funds hereunder in its capacity as Administrative Agent. Subject to receipt by the Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate of the
Borrower confirming the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2, and the Collateral Agent’s receipt of such funds from the Lenders, the Collateral Agent shall make the proceeds of such requested Advances
available to the Borrower by deposit to such account as may be designated by the Borrower (in a written notice received by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to such Advance Date) in same day
funds no later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Advance Date. 

(b)      Committed Lender’s Commitment.  At no time will
any Uncommitted Lender have any obligation to fund an Advance. At all times on and after the Conduit Advance Termination Date, all Advances shall be made by the Agent on behalf of the applicable Committed Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Advances are funded in the first instance by the Uncommitted Lenders. At any time when any Uncommitted Lender has failed to or has rejected a request to fund an


  
 -41- 







 
Advance, its Agent shall so notify the Related Committed Lender and such Related Committed Lender shall fund such Advance. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.2(b) or
elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, no Committed Lender shall be obligated to provide its Agent or the Borrower with funds in connection with an Advance in an amount that would result in the portion of the Advances then funded by it
exceeding its Commitment then in effect. The obligation of the Committed Lender in each Lender Group to remit any Advance shall be several from that of the other Lenders, and the failure of any Committed Lender to so make such amount available to
its Agent shall not relieve any other Committed Lender of its obligation hereunder. 

(c)      Unfunded Commitment Provisions.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of the earlier of (i) any acceleration of the maturity of Advances pursuant to Section 14.2 or (ii) the end of the Revolving Period, the Borrower shall request an Advance in
the amount of the Aggregate Unfunded Amount minus the amount then on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account. Following receipt of such Advance Request, the Lenders shall fund such requested amount by depositing such amount directly to the
Collateral Custodian to be deposited into the Unfunded Exposure Account, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the Borrower’s failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 6.2). 
 Section 2.3     Notes.  The Borrower shall, upon
request of any Lender Group, on or after such Lender Group becomes a party hereto (whether on the Effective Date or by assignment or otherwise), execute and deliver a Note evidencing the Advances of such Lender Group. Each such Note shall be payable
to the order of the Agent for such Lender Group in a face amount equal to the applicable Lender Group’s Commitment as of the Effective Date or the effective date on which such Lender Group becomes a party hereto, as applicable. The Borrower
hereby irrevocably authorizes each Agent to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to the Notes (or on any continuation of such grid, or at the option of such Agent, in its records), which notations, if made, shall
evidence, inter alia, the date of the outstanding principal of the Advances evidenced thereby and each payment of principal thereon. Such notations shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof absent manifest error;
provided, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the Obligations or any payment thereon. 

Section 2.4     Repayment and Prepayments.  (a) The Borrower shall repay
the Advances outstanding (i) on each Distribution Date to the extent required to be repaid hereunder and funds are available therefor pursuant to Section 8.3 and (ii) in full on the Facility Termination Date. 

(b)      Prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower may, from time to
time, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Advance using Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Account or other funds available to the Borrower on such date;
provided, that 
 (i)      all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior written
notice to the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to such voluntary prepayment; 

  
 -42- 







  (ii)      all such voluntary partial
prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000; and 
 (iii)      each prepayment
shall be applied on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent if received by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such day by the Administrative Agent as Amount Available constituting Principal Collections pursuant to
Section 8.3(a) as if (x) the date of such prepayment were a Distribution Date and (y) such prepayment occurred during the Collection Period to which such Distribution Date relates. 

Each such prepayment shall be subject to the payment of any amounts required by Section 2.5(b) (if any) resulting from a
prepayment or payment. 
 Section 2.5     Permanent Reduction of Facility
Amount.  (a) The Borrower may at any time (x) during the Revolving Period if an Extension Request has been rejected by the Administrative Agent or (y) after the end of the Revolving Period, in each case upon five
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, permanently reduce the Facility Amount (i) in whole upon payment in full (in accordance with Section 2.4) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
Advances) or (ii) in part by any pro rata amount that the Facility Amount exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances (after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment thereof). In connection with any permanent
reduction of the Facility Amount under this Section 2.5(a), the Commitment of each Committed Lender shall automatically, and without any further action by any party, be reduced pro rata with all other Committed Lenders such that
the sum of all Commitments will equal the newly reduced Facility Amount. 

  (b)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower may
permanently reduce the Facility Amount at any time, provided that if such reduction occurs at any time other than those specified in Section 2.5(a), it shall pay the applicable Prepayment Fee to the Administrative Agent, for the
respective accounts of the Lenders. 
 Section 2.6     Extension of Revolving
Period.  The Borrower may, at any time after the first anniversary of the Effective Date and prior to the date that is ten Business Days prior to the last date of the Revolving Period, deliver a written notice to the Administrative
Agent requesting an extension of the Revolving Period for an additional twelve months (each qualifying request, an “Extension Request”). The Administrative Agent may approve or decline an Extension Request in its sole discretion;
provided, that the Administrative Agent shall respond to an Extension Request in writing not later than 30 days following receipt of such Extension Request, and if the Administrative Agent 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 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 Discount Factor. 

(a)      In connection with the purchase of each Collateral Obligation and
prior to such Collateral Obligation being purchased by the Borrower and included in the Collateral, 

  
 -43- 







 
the Administrative Agent will assign (in its sole discretion) a Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation. 

(b)      If, but only if, a Revaluation Event occurs with respect to any
Collateral Obligation, the Discount Factor of such Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion. The Administrative Agent will provide written notice of the revised Discount Factor to the Borrower and the
Investment Manager. To the extent the Investment Manager has actual knowledge or, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Underlying Instruments, has received notice of any Revaluation Event with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Investment
Manager shall give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent (but, in any event, not longer than two Business Days after it receives notice or gains actual knowledge thereof). 

(c)      The Administrative Agent will provide written notice of each revised
Discount Factor to the Borrower, the Investment Manager and the Collateral Agent. 
 ARTICLE III 

YIELD, UNDRAWN FEE, ETC. 

Section 3.1     Yield and Undrawn Fee.  (a) The Borrower hereby promises
to pay, on the dates specified in Section 3.2, Yield on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the applicable Advance Date until such Advance is paid in full. No provision of
this Agreement or the Notes shall require the payment or permit the collection of Yield in excess of the maximum permitted by Applicable Law. 

(b)      The Borrower shall pay the Undrawn Fee on the dates specified in
Section 3.2. 
 Section 3.2     Yield Distribution Dates.  Yield
accrued on each Advance (including any previously accrued and unpaid Yield) and Undrawn Fee (as applicable) shall be payable, without duplication: 

(a)      on the Facility Termination Date; 

(b)      on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of
principal outstanding on such Advance; and 
 (c)      on each Distribution
Date. 
 Section 3.3     Yield Calculation.  Each Note shall bear interest on
each day during each Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the product of (a) the Interest Rate for such Accrual Period multiplied by (b) the outstanding Advances attributable to such Note on such day. All Yield shall
be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such Yield is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (other than Yield accruing by the reference rate
set forth in clause (a) of 

  
 -44- 







 
the definition of Alternate Base Rate, which shall be computed over a year comprised of 365/366 days). 

Section 3.4     Computation of Yield, Fees, Etc.  Each Agent (on behalf of its
respective Lender Group) and the Administrative Agent shall determine the applicable Yield and all Fees to be paid by the Borrower on each Distribution Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Collateral Agent thereof in writing no
later than the Determination Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Such reporting may also include an accounting of any amounts due and payable pursuant to Sections 4.3 and 5.1.

the United States of America in immediately available funds. Payments received by any Lender or Agent after 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on any day will be deemed to have been received by such Lender or Agent on its next following Business Day.
Each Agent shall allocate to the Lenders in its Lender Group each payment in respect of the Advances received by such Agent as provided by Section 8.3 or Section 2.4. Payments in reduction of the principal amount of the
Advances shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based on their respective portions of such Advances, or in any such case in such other proportions as each affected Lender may agree upon in writing from time to time with such Agent
and the Borrower. Payments of Yield and Undrawn Fee shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based upon the respective amounts of interest and fees due and payable to them. 

Section 4.2     Due Date Extension.  If any payment of principal or Yield with
respect to any Advance falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next following Business Day, and additional Yield shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension at the rate applicable
to such Advance. 
 Section 4.3     Taxes.  (a)  Payments Free
of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law
(as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such
deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as
necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.3) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

  
 -45- 







 (b)      Payment of Other Taxes
by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, and its direct and indirect beneficial owners, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.3) payable or paid by such Recipient or such beneficial owners or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient or such beneficial owners and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of another Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d)      Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall
severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for
such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 15.9 relating to the maintenance of a
Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the
Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.3(d). 

(e)      Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after
any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body pursuant to this Section 4.3, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such

documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if


  
 -46- 







 
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences,
the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.3(f)(ii)(A), Section 4.3(f)(ii)(B) and Section 4.3(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in
the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

a U.S. Borrower: 
 (A)     any Lender that is a “United States person”

(D)     if a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be
subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including

 (g)      Treatment of Certain
Refunds.    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.3 (including by the
payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.3), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.3 with respect to the
Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party,
upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 4.3(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event
that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.3(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying
party pursuant to this Section 4.3(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts
giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 4.3(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to
the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (h)      Survival. Each
party’s obligations under this Section 4.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
obligations under any Transaction Document.

rule, regulation, directive or request following the date hereof, from any central bank, any Official Body or agency, including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected Person 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 Affected Person, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or any related document or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which any such
Affected Person could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Person with respect to capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Person to be material, then,
from time to time, after demand by such Affected Person (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Affected
Person such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Person for such reduction.

(d)      In determining any amount provided for in this
Section 5.1, the Affected Person may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Affected Person making a claim under this Section 5.1, shall submit to the Borrower a
certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the 

  
 -50- 







 
basis for and the computations of such additional or increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

the end of such fiscal quarter and including the prior comparable period (if any), and the unaudited consolidated and consolidating statements of income of the Equityholder and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal quarter and for the period

(l)       Obligor Reports.  The Borrower shall cause the
Investment Manager to furnish to the Administrative Agent, with respect to each Obligor, within 15 Business Days of the completion of the Investment Manager’s portfolio review of such Obligor (which, for any individual Obligor, shall occur no
less frequently than quarterly), without duplication of any other reporting requirements set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any financial reporting packages with respect to such Obligor and with respect to each Collateral
Obligation for such Obligor (including any attached or included information, statements and calculations) received by the Borrower and/or the Investment Manager as of the date of the completion of such review. In no case, however, shall the
Investment Manager be obligated hereunder to deliver such Obligor reports to the Administrative Agent more than once per calendar month. Upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to provide such other
information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request with respect to any Collateral Obligation or Obligor (to the extent reasonably available to the Investment Manager).

Section 7.6     Reserved. 

Section 7.7     Collateral Reporting.  The Borrower shall cause the Investment
Manager to cooperate with the Collateral Agent in the performance of the Collateral Agent’s duties under Section 11.3. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to supply in a
timely fashion any information maintained by it that the Collateral Agent may from time to time request with respect to the Collateral Obligations and reasonably necessary to complete the reports and certificates required to be prepared by the
Collateral Agent hereunder or required to permit the Collateral Agent to perform its obligations hereunder. 
 Section
7.8     Reserved. 
 Section 7.9     Procedural Review of
Collateral Obligations; Access to Investment Manager and Investment Manager’s Records.  (a) The Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to, at the Borrower’s expense, retain Protiviti, Inc. (or another nationally
recognized audit firm acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) to conduct and complete a procedural review of the Collateral Obligations in compliance with the standards set forth on Exhibit B hereto, (i) within
three months after the Effective Date and (ii) once per six months thereafter, in each case at the request of the Administrative Agent, with respect to the previous calendar year. The Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to promptly

 -60- 







 (b)      The Borrower shall, and
shall cause the Investment Manager to, at the Borrower’s expense, permit representatives of the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request (A) to inspect and make copies of
and abstracts from its records relating to the Collateral Obligations, and (B) to visit its properties in connection with the collection, processing or managing of the Collateral Obligations for the purpose of examining such records, and to
discuss matters relating to the Collateral Obligations or such Person’s performance under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents with any officer or employee or auditor (if any) of such Person having knowledge of such matters. The
Borrower agrees, and will cause the Investment Manager, to render to the Administrative Agent such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard to the foregoing; provided, that such assistance shall not interfere
in any material respect with the Investment Manager’s business and operations. So long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default or Investment Manager Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, such visits and inspections shall occur only (i) upon five Business Days’ prior written notice, (ii) during normal business hours and (iii) no more than twice in any calendar year. During the
existence of an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default or an Investment Manager Event of Default, there shall be no limit on the timing or number of such inspections and
no prior notice will be required before any inspection. 
 (c)      The
Borrower shall, and shall cause the Investment Manager to, at the Borrower’s expense and as applicable, provide to the Administrative Agent access to the documentation evidencing the Collateral Obligations and all other documents regarding the
Collateral Obligations included as part of the Collateral and the Related Security in each case, in its possession, in such cases where the Administrative Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the
Lenders, or by applicable statutes or regulations, to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge but only (i) upon two Business Days’ prior written notice (so long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event,
Facility Termination Event or Investment Manager Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), (ii) during normal business hours and (iii) up to twice per calendar year (so long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility
Termination Event or Investment Manager Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). From and after the Effective Date and periodically thereafter at the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may review the
Borrower’s and the Investment Manager’s collection and administration of the Collateral Obligations in order to assess compliance by the Investment Manager with the Investment Manager’s written policies and procedures, as well as this
Agreement and may, no more than twice in any calendar year, conduct an audit of the Collateral Obligations and Records in conjunction with such review. 

(d)      Nothing in this Section 7.9 shall derogate from the
obligation of the Borrower and the Investment Manager to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Investment Manager to provide access as a result of such obligation shall not
constitute a breach of this Section 7.9.

 Section 7.10    Optional
Sales.  (a) The Borrower shall have the right to sell all or a portion of the Collateral Obligations (each, an “Optional Sale”), subject to the following terms and conditions:

continuing for all purposes hereunder until the settlement date of such Optional Sale); 
 provided, notwithstanding
the above, that the Borrower may make (i) any Optional Sale of any Collateral Obligation that, in the Collateral Manager’s reasonable judgment, has a significant risk of declining in credit quality and, with the lapse of time, becoming a
Defaulted Collateral Obligation, if after giving effect to such Optional Sale, (a) no Facility Termination Event is continuing and (b) the aggregate Principal Balance of all such Collateral Obligations sold pursuant to this proviso in any
twelve-month period does not exceed 15% of the Aggregate Eligible Collateral Obligation Amount in effect on the date of such sale, (ii) any Optional Sale of any Collateral Obligation if (x) the sale price is equal to or greater than the
Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation and (y) the proceeds from such Optional Sale are applied to reduce the Advances or (iii) any Optional Sale required as a result of the Required Sale Date.

and the expected proceeds from such Optional Sale and include (x) an Officer’s Certificate computed as of the date of such request and after giving effect to such Optional Sale, demonstrating compliance with clauses (A), (B) and
(C) above and all other conditions set forth herein are satisfied and (y) a certificate of the Investment Manager substantially in the form of Exhibit F-3 requesting the release of the related

 -62- 







 
no representations, warranties or covenants and provides no indemnification for the benefit of any other party (other than those which are customarily made or provided in connection with the sale
of assets of such type); 
 (iv)      if such Optional Sale is to an Affiliate of the
Borrower or the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent has given its prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); and 

 (v)      on the date of such Optional Sale, all proceeds from such Optional Sale will be
sent directly into the Collection Account. 
 (b)      In connection with any
Optional Sale, following deposit of all proceeds from such Optional Sale into the Collection Account, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to release and transfer to the Borrower (or the purchaser thereof from the Borrower) without recourse,
representation or warranty all of the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in, to and under such Collateral Obligation(s) and related Collateral subject to such Optional Sale and such portion of
the Collateral so transferred shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. 

(c)      The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the reasonable and documented
outside counsel legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Agent and each Lender in connection with any Optional Sale (including, but not limited to, expenses incurred in
connection with the release of the Lien of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral in connection with such Optional Sale). 

(d)      In connection with any Optional Sale, the Collateral Agent shall, at
the sole expense of the Borrower, execute such instruments of release with respect to the portion of the Collateral subject to such Optional Sale to the Borrower, in recordable form if necessary, as the Borrower, or the Investment Manager on its
behalf, may reasonably request. 
 (e)      Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Principal Balance of all Collateral Obligations (other than Warranty Collateral Obligations released to the Equityholder pursuant to a dividend by the Borrower or Collateral Obligations sold to the Equityholder as a result of the Required Sale
Date) sold pursuant to Section 7.10(a) to the Equityholder or an Affiliate thereof or released to the Equityholder pursuant to a dividend by the Borrower shall not in any twelve-month period exceed 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance
measured as of the date of such sale or dividend; provided, that the Principal Balance of all Defaulted Collateral Obligations (other than Warranty Collateral Obligations released to the Equityholder pursuant to a dividend by the Borrower or
Collateral Obligations sold to the Equityholder as a result of the Required Sale Date) sold pursuant to Section 7.10(a) to the Equityholder or an Affiliate thereof or released to the Equityholder pursuant to a dividend by the Borrower
shall not in any twelve-month period exceed 10% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance measured as of the date of such sale or dividend. 

Section 7.11    Repurchase or Substitution of Warranty Collateral

 -63- 







 
of a material breach of any other representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant set forth in Article IX, Article X, Section 18.3 or Section 18.5(b) with
respect to a Collateral Obligation (or the Related Security and other related collateral constituting part of the Collateral related to such Collateral Obligation) (each such Collateral Obligation, a “Warranty Collateral
Obligation”), no later than 30 days after the earlier of (x) knowledge of such breach on the part of the Equityholder or the Investment Manager and (y) receipt by the Equityholder or the Investment Manager of written notice
thereof given by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall either (a) repay Advances outstanding in an amount equal to the aggregate Repurchase Amount of such Warranty Collateral Obligation(s) to which such breach relates on the terms and
conditions set forth below or (b) substitute for such Warranty Collateral Obligation one or more Eligible Collateral Obligations with an aggregate Collateral Obligation Amount at least equal to the Repurchase Amount of the Warranty Collateral
Obligation(s) being replaced; provided, that no such repayment or substitution shall be required to be made with respect to any Warranty Collateral Obligation (and such Collateral Obligation shall cease to be a Warranty Collateral Obligation)
if, on or before the expiration of such 30 day period either (x) such Repurchase Event shall no longer be continuing or (y) the representations and warranties in Article IX with respect to such Warranty Collateral Obligation
shall be made true and correct in all material respects with respect to such Warranty Collateral Obligation as if such Warranty Collateral Obligation had become part of the Collateral on such day, as applicable or if the Advances outstanding do not
exceed the Borrowing Base, as applicable. 
 Section 7.12   Required Sale
Date.  Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Borrower shall divest itself of all Required Sale Assets on or prior to the Required Sale Date. 

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, who shall forward funds from the
Collection Account to the Collateral Agent for application 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 Investment Manager and the Administrative Agent), then the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager 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 by the Borrower or at the direction of the Investment Manager (i) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Variable Funding Asset, or (ii) to make a deposit into the Collections 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. 

  
 -64- 







 Following the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall
cause the Investment Manager 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 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 Investment Manager. 
   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 Investment Manager 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 Investment Manager in writing (or, if the Investment Manager 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 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
Investment Manager or, if the Investment Manager shall fail to give such direction, the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall, upon written request, provide the Administrative 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 Investment Manager or the Administrative 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 

  
 -65- 







 
compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this Agreement. 

(c)      Neither the Borrower nor the Investment Manager 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) deposit amounts into the Principal Collection Account and/or (y) transfer Eligible Collateral Obligations as equity contributions to the Borrower. All such amounts will be included in each applicable compliance calculation under this
Agreement, including, without limitation, calculation of the Borrowing Base and the Minimum Equity Condition. 

Section 8.2     Excluded Amounts.  The Borrower may cause the Investment
Manager 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 Investment Manager has, prior to
such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, which report shall
include a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting such request and designate a date for the payment of such reimbursement, which date shall not be earlier than two (2) Business Days following delivery of such notice. 

Section 8.3     Distributions, Reinvestment and
Dividends.    (a) On each Distribution Date, the Collateral Agent shall distribute from the Collection Account, in accordance with the applicable Monthly Report prepared by the Collateral Agent and approved by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.5, the Amount Available for such Distribution Date in the following order of priority: 

(A)     FIRST, to the payment of taxes and governmental fees owing by the Borrower,
if any, which expenses shall not exceed $100,000 on any Distribution Date; 

(B)     SECOND, to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian, any accrued

Section 8.3(a)(C), (A) to the Lenders, an amount equal to the Yield on the Advances accrued during the Accrual Period with respect to such Distribution Date (and any Yield with respect to any prior Accrual Period to the extent not
paid on a prior Distribution Date), (B) to the Administrative Agent and the Agents on behalf of their respective Lenders, all accrued and unpaid Fees due to the Lenders, the Agents and the Administrative Agent and (C) to the Hedge
Counterparties, any amounts owed for the current and prior Distribution Dates to the Hedge Counterparties under Hedging Agreements (other than Hedge Breakage Costs), together with interest accrued thereon;

Lenders pro rata in accordance with the outstanding Advances, (1) in the amount necessary to reduce the Advances outstanding to an amount not to exceed any Borrowing Base and (2) if the Diversity Score is lower than 8, in the amount
necessary to reduce the Advances outstanding to zero; 
 (F)    SIXTH, after the end of
the Revolving Period, to the Agents on behalf of their respective Lenders pro rata to repay the Advances outstanding, an amount equal to the sum of (i) all remaining Amount Available constituting Principal Collections plus (ii) the
product of (a) all remaining Amount Available constituting Interest Collections multiplied by (b) the applicable Lender Allocation Percentage; 

(G)    SEVENTH, to the Investment Manager (unless waived or deferred in whole or in part
by the Investment Manager), any fees of the Investment Manager in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of any accrued and unpaid Secondary IM Fee for the related Collection Period, as well as any expenses of the Investment Manager or other
amounts owing to the Investment Manager, in each case reimbursable or owing under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement;

(K)     ELEVENTH, to the extent not previously paid by or on behalf of the Borrower,
to each Indemnified Party, any Indemnified Amounts then due and owing to each such Indemnified Party;

(b)      During the Revolving Period, the Borrower may make distributions

to Section 8.3 on the next Payment Date on a pro forma basis, Interest Collections, and apply such Collections to (A) prepay the Advances outstanding in accordance with Section 2.4 or (B) acquire additional
Collateral Obligations (each such reinvestment of Collections, a “Reinvestment”), subject to the following conditions: 

(i)      the Borrower shall have given written notice to the Collateral Agent and the
Administrative Agent of the proposed Reinvestment at or prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, two Business Days prior to the proposed date of such Reinvestment (the “Reinvestment Date”). Such notice (the “Reinvestment

Section 8.4     Fees.   The Borrower shall pay, pursuant hereto, the

Date and make available such Monthly Report to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Investment Manager on each Reporting Date starting with the Reporting Date in March 2014. If any party receiving any Monthly Report disagrees with any
items of such report, it shall contact the Collateral Agent and notify it of such disputed item and provide reasonably sufficient information to correct such item, with (if other than the Administrative Agent) a copy of such notice and information
to the Administrative Agent and the Investment Manager. Unless the Collateral Agent is otherwise timely directed by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent shall distribute a revised Monthly Report on the Business Day after it receives such
information. If the Collateral Agent is directed by the Administrative Agent that the Collateral Agent should not make such correction, the Collateral Agent shall take such action as instructed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent’s reasonable determination with regard to any disputed item in the Monthly Report shall be final. 
 Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with the preparation of a Monthly Report, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be responsible for providing to the Collateral Agent the information required by
Section 3.4 for part (d) of Exhibit D for such 

  
 -69- 







 
Monthly Report on which the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely. The Administrative Agent shall review and verify the contents of the aforesaid reports (including the Monthly Report),
instructions, statements and certificates. Upon receipt of approval from the Administrative Agent, such reports, instructions, statements and certificates shall be executed by the Borrower and the Investment Manager and, in the case of the Monthly
Report, the Collateral Agent shall make the distributions required by Section 8.3 pursuant to such Monthly Report.

Section 9.2     Due Qualification.  It is duly qualified to do business and has

proceeding in equity or at law and (C) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. 

Section 9.5     Security Interest.  This Agreement creates a valid and

authorizes the Collateral Agent to so file) such financing statements and cause to be filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the
Collateral Agent in favor of the Secured Parties under this Agreement in the Collateral and in the proceeds thereof. The Borrower shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Collateral Agent file-stamped

shall be deleted from or modified on the Borrower’s computer systems when, and only when, the Collateral in question shall have been paid in full, the security interest under this Agreement has been released in accordance with its terms,

any action hereunder at the request of the Administrative Agent, any Secured Parties or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the determination of the Collateral Agent, (x) shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any
provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise (unless it has received indemnity which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto). In the event the Collateral Agent

instructions within two Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions

Collateral Agent will be permitted unless a successor Collateral Agent has been appointed which successor Collateral Agent, so long as no Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default, Investment Manager Event of Default, Unmatured Facility
Termination Event or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, is reasonably acceptable to the Investment Manager. Promptly after receipt of notice of the Collateral Agent’s resignation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
appoint a successor Collateral Agent by written instrument, in duplicate, copies of which instrument shall be delivered to the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the resigning Collateral Agent and to the successor Collateral Agent. In the event no
successor Collateral Agent shall have been appointed within 60 days after the giving of notice of such resignation, the Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. The Administrative
Agent upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, may with or without cause remove and discharge the Collateral Agent or any successor Collateral Agent thereafter appointed from the performance of its duties under this
Agreement. Promptly after giving notice of removal of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Collateral Agent. Any such appointment shall be accomplished by
written instrument and one original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent and the successor Collateral Agent, with a copy delivered to the Borrower and the Investment Manager.

duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Collateral Agent and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Collateral Agent enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,

Section 11.6   No Adverse Interest of Collateral Agent.  By execution of this Agreement,
the Collateral Agent represents and warrants that it currently holds and during the existence of this Agreement shall hold, no adverse interest, by way of security or otherwise, in any Collateral Obligation or any document in the Collateral
Obligation Files. Neither the Collateral Obligations nor any documents in the Collateral Obligation Files shall be subject to any security interest, lien or right of set-off by the Collateral Agent or any
third party claiming through the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not pledge, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, dispose of, or otherwise grant any third party interest in, the Collateral Obligations or documents in the Collateral
Obligation Files, except that the preceding clause shall not apply to the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian with respect to (i) the Collateral Agent Fees and Expenses or the Collateral Custodian Fees and Expenses, and (ii) in
the case of any accounts, with respect to (x) returned or charged-back items, (y) reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers, or (z) overdrafts in the Collection Account.

Collateral Agent, reasonably believed by the Collateral Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement; but in the case of a request, instruction, document
or certificate which by any provision hereof is specifically required to be furnished to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall be under a duty to examine the same in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement to determine that
they conform on their face to the form required by such provision. For avoidance of doubt, Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on Borrowing Base Certificate and Officer’s Certificate of the Investment Manager. The Collateral Agent shall not
be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the discretion or powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed hereunder, or omitted to be
taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby for such action. 

Section 11.8   Limitation of Liability and Collateral Agent Rights.  (a) The

disregard or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties. 

(d)      The Collateral Agent makes no warranty or representation and shall
have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral, and will not be required to and will
not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to take any action hereunder that might in its judgment involve any
expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. 

(e)      The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except
such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Agent.

cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Administrative Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but

(i)       In the event that the Collateral Custodian is not the same
entity as the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement and shall not be required to monitor the performance of the Collateral Custodian.

generality of any terms of this section, the Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower to provide accurate and complete
information on a timely basis to the Collateral Agent, 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
Agent’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.

private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere in accordance with Applicable Law. The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’
notice to the Borrower of the time and place

not be necessary to make any Secured Party a party to any such proceedings. 

Section 13.6   Insolvency Proceedings.  In case there shall be pending, relative to the

other comparable judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors of property of the Borrower or such other obligor, the Collateral Agent irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then
be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered but without any

necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower, its creditors and its property;

 Section 13.7   Delay or Omission Not Waiver.  No delay or omission of the Collateral
Agent or of any other Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Facility Termination Event shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Facility Termination Event or an acquiescence therein. Every

under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect), which may affect the covenants, the performance of or any remedies under this Agreement; and the Borrower (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefits or advantages of any such law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Collateral Agent, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as
though no such law had been enacted.

Section 14.2   Delegation of Duties.  Each Note Agent may execute any of its duties under
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by or through its subsidiaries, affiliates, agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Note Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
with reasonable care. 
 Section 14.3   Exculpatory Provisions.  No Note Agent (acting
in such capacity) nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them or any Person described in Section 14.2 under or in connection


  
 -102- 







 
with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (except for its, their or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any
Person for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties of any Person (other than itself) contained in the Transaction Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received under
or in connection with, the Transaction Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of the Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection therewith or herewith, or for any
failure of any Person (other than itself or its directors, officers, agents or employees) to perform its obligations under any Transaction Document or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in a Transaction Document. Except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement, no Note Agent shall be under any obligation to any Person to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, the Transaction
Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or the Investment Manager. 

Section 14.4   Reliance by Note Agents.  Each Note Agent shall in all cases be entitled
to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to each of the Lenders), Independent Accountants and other experts
selected by such Note Agent. Each Note Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith
unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders, as it deems appropriate, or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction (i) in the case of the Administrative Agent, by the Lenders or (ii) in the case of an
Agent, by the Lenders in its Lender Group, against any and all liability, cost and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action
taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other document
furnished in connection herewith or therewith in accordance with a request of the Lenders in its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group, and such request and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders in such Lender Group. 

Section 14.5   Notices.  No Note Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any breach of this Agreement or the occurrence of any Facility Termination Event unless it has received notice from the Investment Manager, the Borrower or any Lender, referring to this Agreement and describing such event. In the event
that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to each Agent, and in the event any Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders in its Lender Group. The
Administrative Agent shall take such 

  
 -103- 







 
action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably directed in writing by the Required Lenders, and each Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably
directed by Lenders in its Lender holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group; provided, that unless and until such Note Agent shall have received such directions, such Note Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such event as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders or of the Lenders in its Lender Group, as applicable. 

Section 14.6   Non-Reliance on Note Agents.  The
Lenders expressly acknowledge that no Note Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or
warranties to it and that no act by any Note Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or the Investment Manager, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Note Agent to any Lender. Each
Lender represents to each Note Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, and the Collateral Obligations and made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Notes hereunder and enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under any of the Transaction Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, and the Collateral Obligations. Except as expressly provided herein, no Note Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
concerning the Collateral or the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Investment Manager or the Lenders which may come into the possession of such Note Agent or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 

In no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of
any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if the Administrative Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable
for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government
action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 14.7   Indemnification.    The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Investment Manager under the Transaction Documents, and without limiting the obligation of such Persons to
do so in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents), ratably according to the outstanding amounts of their Advances from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the 

  
 -104- 







 
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent or the affected Person in connection with any investigative, or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or
not the Administrative Agent or such affected Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such affected Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in
any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under the Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith (but excluding any such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such affected Person). 

Section 14.8   Successor Note Agent.    If the Administrative Agent shall
resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor agent, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term
“Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other
or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. Any Agent may resign as Agent upon ten days’ notice to the Lenders in its Lender Group and the Administrative Agent (with a copy to
the Borrower) with such resignation becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent pursuant to this Section 14.8. If an Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement, then Lenders in
its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group shall appoint a successor agent for such Lender Group. After any Note Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XIV
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Note Agent under this Agreement. No resignation of any Note Agent shall become effective until a successor Note Agent shall have assumed the
responsibilities and obligations of such Note Agent hereunder; provided, that in the event a successor Note Agent is not appointed within 60 days after such notice of its resignation is given as permitted by this Section 14.8, the
applicable Note Agent may petition a court for its removal. 
 Section 14.9   Note Agents in their
Individual Capacity.    Each Note Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or the Investment Manager as though such Note Agent were not an
agent hereunder. Any Person which is a Note Agent may act as a Note Agent without regard to and without additional duties or liabilities arising from its role as such administrator or agent or arising from its acting in any such other capacity. 

ARTICLE XV 
 ASSIGNMENTS 

Section 15.1   Restrictions on Assignments.  Except as specifically provided herein, the
Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders in their respective sole discretion and any attempted assignment in
violation of this Section 15.1 shall be null and void. 

  
 -105- 








Section 15.2   Documentation.    In connection with any permitted assignment,
each Lender shall deliver to each assignee an assignment, in such form as such Lender and the related assignee may agree, duly executed by such Lender assigning any such rights, obligations, Advance or Note to the assignee; and such Lender shall
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the assignee may reasonably request, in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in and to
the items assigned, and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder or under the Notes evidencing such Advance. 

Section 15.3   Rights of Assignee.    Upon the foreclosure of any assignment of
any Advances made for security purposes, or upon any other assignment of any Advance from any Lender pursuant to this Article XV, the respective assignee receiving such assignment shall have all of the rights of such Lender hereunder
with respect to such Advances and all references to the Lender or Lenders in Sections 4.3 or 5.1 shall be deemed to apply to such assignee. 

Section 15.4   Assignment by Lenders.    So long as no Facility Termination
Event or Investment Manager Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender may make any assignment, and no such assignment shall be permitted, other than any proposed assignment (i) to an Affiliate of such Lender, (ii) to
another Lender hereunder or (iii) if (x) such Lender makes a reasonable determination that its ownership of any of its rights or obligations hereunder (and under other similar facilities (if any) held by such Lender) is prohibited by the
Volcker Rule and (y) to the extent such Lender is permitted by the applicable documentation, such Lender is making commercially reasonable efforts to assign its interest in other similar facilities in a manner similar to such proposed
assignment, to any Person other than a Competitor, without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent, if such assignment is to a Person other than a Competitor, shall not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Each
Lender shall endorse the Notes to reflect any assignments made pursuant to this Article XV or otherwise. 

Section 15.5   Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.   (a) The
Collateral Agent, acting solely for this purpose agent for the Borrower (and, in such capacity, the “Note Registrar”), shall maintain a register for the recordation of the name and address of each Lender (including any assignees),
and the principal amounts (and stated interest) owing to such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Note Register”). The entries in the Note Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, each Agent and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Note Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder. The Note Register shall be available
for inspection by any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(b)      Each Person who has or who acquired an interest in a Note shall be
deemed by such acquisition to have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 15.5. A Note may be exchanged (in accordance with Section 15.5(c)) and transferred to the holders (or their agents or nominees) of the
Advances and to any assignee (in accordance with Section 15.1) (or its agent or nominee) of all or a portion of the Advances. The Note Registrar shall not register (or cause to be registered) the transfer of such Note, unless the
proposed transferee shall have delivered to the Note Registrar either (i) an Opinion of Counsel that the transfer of such Note is exempt from registration or qualification under the Securities 

  
 -106- 







 
Act of 1933, as amended, and all applicable state securities laws and that the transfer does not constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or (ii) an express
agreement by the proposed transferee to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 15.5 and the restrictions noted on the face of such Note. 

(c)      At the option of the holder thereof, a Note may be exchanged for one
or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like class and aggregate principal amount at an office or agency of the Borrower. Whenever any Note is so surrendered for exchange, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Note
Registrar) the new Note which the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive at the Note Registrar’s office, located at DB Services Americas Inc., 5022 Gate Parkway, Suite 200, Jacksonville, Florida, 32256, Attention: Transfer Unit. 

(d)      Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at an office
or agency of the Borrower, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Note Registrar), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like class and aggregate
principal amount. 
 (e)      All Notes issued upon any registration of
transfer or exchange of any Note in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be the valid obligations of the Borrower, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, as the Note(s) surrendered upon
such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (f)      Every Note presented
or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Borrower or the Note Registrar) be fully endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Note Registrar, duly
executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

(g)      No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of a Note, but the Borrower may require payment from the transferee holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer of exchange of a Note. 

(h)      The holders of the Notes shall be bound by the terms and conditions of
this Agreement. 
 Section 15.6   Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Notes.  (a) If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Note Registrar) in exchange therefor a new Note of like class and tenor and principal amount and bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 (b)      If there shall be
delivered to the Borrower and the Note Registrar prior to the payment of the Notes (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each
of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Borrower or the Note Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Note
Registrar), in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen 

  
 -107- 







 
Note, a new Note of like class, tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

(c)      Upon the issuance of any new Note under this
Section 15.6, the Borrower may require the payment from the transferor holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. 

(d)      Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 15.6 and in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Borrower, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 

(e)      The provisions of this Section 15.6 are exclusive and
shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note. 

Section 15.7   Persons Deemed Owners.   The Borrower, the Investment Manager, the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any agent for any of the foregoing may treat the holder of any Note as the owner of such Note for all purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note may be overdue, and none of Borrower, the Investment
Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Section 15.8   Cancellation.    All Notes surrendered for payment or
registration of transfer or exchange shall be promptly canceled. The Borrower shall promptly cancel and deliver to the Note Registrar any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Borrower may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Borrower. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section 15.8, except as expressly permitted by this
Agreement. 
 Section 15.9   Participations; Pledge.   (a) At any time and
from time to time, each Lender may, in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time grant participations in all or a portion of its Note and/or its interest in the Advances and other payments due to it under this Agreement to any Person (each, a
“Participant”). Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) any such participation will not alter or affect such Lender’s direct obligations hereunder, and (B) none of the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the
Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent nor the Investment Manager shall have any obligation to have any communication or relationship with any Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Section 4.3 and Section 5.1 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.3(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 4.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Article XV; provided that such Participant
(A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 17.16 as if it were an assignee under this Article XV; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any 

  
 -108- 







 
greater payment under Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the
extent that such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any Applicable Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s
request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 17.16(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to
the benefits of Section 17.1 as though it were a Lender. 

(b)      Notwithstanding anything in Section 15.9(a) to the
contrary, each Lender may pledge its interest in the Advances and the Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral in accordance with Applicable Law without the prior written consent of any Person. 

(c)      Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the obligations under the Transaction
Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information
relating to a Participant’s interest in any obligations under any Transaction Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United
States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all
purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

ARTICLE XVI 
 INDEMNIFICATION 

Section 16.1   Borrower Indemnity.   Without limiting any other rights which any
such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Agents, the Lenders, the Note Registrar, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent and each of their Affiliates, and each
of their respective successors, transferees, participants and assigns and all officers, directors, shareholders, controlling persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing Persons being individually called an
“Indemnified Party”), forthwith on demand, from and against any and all damages (including punitive damages), losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ and
accountants’ fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively called “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or the use of proceeds therefrom by the Borrower, including in respect of the funding of any Advance or any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Borrower or the Investment Manager in any
Transaction Document or in any certificate or other written material delivered by any of them pursuant to any Transaction Document, excluding, 

  
 -109- 







 
however, Indemnified Amounts payable to an Indemnified Party (a) to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party and (b) resulting from the performance of the Collateral Obligations. This Section 16.1 shall not apply to Taxes (other than Taxes that are damages, losses, claims and
liabilities arising in connection with a non-Tax claim). 
 Indemnification under this Section 16.1 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Indemnified Party and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. 

Section 16.2   Reserved. 

Section 16.3   Contribution.  If for any reason (other than the
exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1) the indemnification provided above in Section 16.1 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the
Borrower agrees to 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 and its Affiliates, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. 
 Section 16.4   Net After-Tax Basis.  Indemnification under
Section 16.1 and Section 16.2 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences, on a net after-Tax basis (including, for example, taking into account the
deductibility of an applicable underlying damage, cost or expense) to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder (or of the incurrence of such applicable underlying damage, cost or expense), including the effect of such
Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party. 
 ARTICLE XVII 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 17.1   No Waiver; Remedies.    No failure on the part of any Lender,
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Indemnified Party or any Affected Person to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by
any of them of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower during the existence of a Facility Termination Event, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by it to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower to the amounts owed by the Borrower under this Agreement, to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Affected Person, any Indemnified Party or any Lender or their respective successors and assigns.

Transaction Documents and the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder or with respect hereto; provided, that in the case of reimbursement of (A) counsel for the Lenders other than the Administrative Agent, such
reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all the Administrative Agent, the Agents and Lenders and (B) counsel for the Collateral Agent and Collateral Custodian shall be limited to one counsel for such Persons. For the avoidance of

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents, the parties hereto

Available Funds or the proceeds thereof, any claims of the parties hereto (and the obligations of such Conduit Lender) shall be extinguished. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing under this Agreement against any officer,
member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of any Conduit Lender or its successors or assigns, and no action may be brought against any officer, member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of any Conduit Lender

to the extent such Conduit Lender has Excess Funds on the date of such determination and (b) any expenses, indemnities or other liabilities that it may incur under this Agreement or any fees, expenses, indemnities or other liabilities under any
other Transaction Agreement only to the extent such Conduit Lender receives funds designated for such purposes or to the extent it has Excess Funds not required, after giving effect to all amounts on deposit in its commercial paper account, to pay
or provide for the payment of all of its outstanding commercial paper notes as of the date of such determination. In addition, no amount owing by any Conduit Lender hereunder in excess of the liabilities that such Conduit Lender is required to pay
in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a “claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against such Conduit Lender. 

Section 17.13  ENTIRE AGREEMENT.    THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION
DOCUMENTS EXECUTED AND DELIVERED HEREWITH REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN

Section 17.14 Confidentiality.     (a) The Borrower, the Investment Manager, the
Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent shall hold in confidence, and not disclose to any Person, the identity of any Lender or the terms of any fees payable in connection with this Agreement except they may disclose such information
(i) to their officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, accountants, auditors, advisors, prospective lenders, equity investors or representatives, (ii) with the consent of such Lender, (iii) to the extent such information has
become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through such Person, or (iv) to the extent the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Agent or any Affiliate of any of them should
be required by any law or regulation applicable to it (including securities laws) or requested by any Official Body to disclose such information. 

(b)      The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral
Custodian, each Agent and each Lender, severally and with respect to itself only, covenants and agrees that any information about the Borrower or its Affiliates or the Obligors, the Collateral Obligations, the Related Security or otherwise obtained
by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall be held in confidence (it being understood that documents provided to the Administrative Agent hereunder may in all cases be distributed by the
Administrative Agent to the Lenders) except that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or such Lender may disclose such information (i) to its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel,
accountants, auditors, advisors or representatives, (ii) to the extent such information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral
Custodian or such Lender, (iii) to the extent such information was available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder, (iv) with the
consent of the Investment Manager, (v) to the extent permitted by Article XV, or (vi) to the extent the Administrative Agent or such Lender should be (A) required in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding or

Section 17.15 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment.  All parties hereto agree that each of them and
each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including, without limitation,
opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. “Tax treatment” and “tax structure” shall have the same meaning as such terms have for purposes of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.6011-4; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, the
provisions of this Section 17.15 shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 17.16 Replacement of Lenders. 

  
 -115- 







 (a)      If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 5.1, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.3, then such Lender shall (at the
request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking the Obligations or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment
of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or
assignment. 
 (b)      At any time there is more than one Lender, the
Borrower shall be permitted, at its sole expense and effort, to replace any Lender, except (i) the Administrative Agent or (ii) any Lender which is administered by the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, that
(a) requests reimbursement, payment or compensation for any amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1 or (b) has received a written notice from the Borrower of an impending change in law that would
entitle such Lender to payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, unless such Lender designates a different lending office before such change in law becomes effective pursuant to
Section 17.16(a) and such alternate lending office obviates the need for the Borrower to make payments of additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1 or (c) has not consented to any proposed
amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver, each pursuant to Section 17.2 or (d) defaults in its obligation to make Advances hereunder; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall relieve a Lender from any
liability it might have to the Borrower or to the other Lenders for its failure to make any Advance, (ii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Advances and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to
the date of replacement, (iii) during the Revolving Period, the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (iv) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make
such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.5, (v) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) for Increased Costs or Indemnified Taxes, as
the case may be, (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (vii) if such replacement is being
effected as a result of a Lender requesting compensation pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, such replacement, if effected, will result in a reduction in such compensation or payment thereafter. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein or in the Fee Letter, in the event that the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent takes any action described in the foregoing clauses (a), (b) or (d), the Borrower may elect to prepay
all outstanding Advances and terminate the remaining Commitments hereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Agreement, no Lender removed or replaced under the provisions hereof shall have any right to receive any amounts
set forth in Section 2.5(b) in connection with such removal or replacement. 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.

hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents, and each party hereto hereby
irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of 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. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive, to the
fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 
 ARTICLE XVIII 

COLLATERAL CUSTODIAN 

Section 18.1   Designation of Collateral Custodian.   The role of Collateral
Custodian with respect to the Collateral Obligation Files shall be conducted by the Person designated as Collateral Custodian hereunder from time to time in accordance with this Section 18.1. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is
hereby appointed as, and hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Collateral Custodian pursuant to the terms hereof. 

Section 18.2   Duties of the Collateral Custodian. 

(a)      Duties.    The Collateral Custodian shall
perform, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations: 

   (i)      The Collateral Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Secured
Parties, for these purposes, acknowledges that the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to deliver, on or prior to the applicable Funding Date (but no more than five (5) Business Days after such Funding Date, except as set forth in
Section 10.22), the Collateral Obligation Files delivered to it for each Collateral Obligation listed on the Schedule of Collateral Obligations attached to the related Asset Approval Request. The Collateral Custodian acknowledges that in
connection with any Asset Approval Request, additional Collateral Obligation Files (specified on an accompanying Schedule of Collateral Obligations supplement) may be delivered to the Collateral Custodian from time to time, and that the Collateral
Custodian will credit each Collateral Obligation File to the Collection Account in accordance with the terms hereof. Promptly upon the receipt of any such delivery of Collateral Obligation Files and without any review, the Collateral Custodian shall
send notice of such receipt to the Investment Manager and the Administrative Agent. 

  (ii)      With respect to each Collateral Obligation File which has been or will be
delivered to the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Custodian is acting exclusively as the custodian of the Secured Parties, and has no instructions to hold any Collateral Obligation File for the benefit of any Person other than the Secured
Parties and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In so taking and retaining custody of the Collateral Obligation Files, the Collateral Custodian shall be deemed to


  
 -117- 







 
be acting for the purpose of perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein under the UCC. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 18.5, no Collateral
Obligation File or other document constituting a part of a Collateral Obligation File shall be released from the possession of the Collateral Custodian. 

(iii)      The Collateral Custodian shall maintain continuous custody of all items in its
possession in secure facilities in accordance with customary standards for such custody and shall reflect in its records the interest of the Secured Parties therein. Each Collateral Obligation File which comes into the possession of the Collateral
Agent (other than documents delivered electronically) shall be maintained in fire-resistant vaults or cabinets at the office of the Collateral Custodian. Each Collateral Obligation File shall be marked with an appropriate identifying label and
maintained in such manner so as to permit retrieval and access by the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall keep the Collateral Obligation Files clearly segregated from any other documents or instruments
in its files. 
 (iv)      With respect to the documents comprising each Collateral
Obligation File, the Collateral Custodian shall (i) act exclusively as Collateral Custodian for the Secured Parties, (ii) hold all documents constituting such Collateral Obligation File received by it for the exclusive use and benefit of
the Secured Parties and (iii) make disposition thereof only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or with written instructions furnished by the Administrative Agent; provided, that in the event of a conflict between the terms of this
Agreement and the written instructions of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s written instructions shall control. 

 (v)      The Collateral Custodian shall accept only written instructions of an Executive
Officer, in the case of the Borrower or the Investment Manager, or a Responsible Officer, in the case of the Administrative Agent, concerning the use, handling and disposition of the Collateral Obligation Files. 

(vi)      In the event that (i) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Investment
Manager, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Agent shall be served by a third party with any type of levy, attachment, writ or court order with respect to any Collateral Obligation File or a document included within a Collateral Obligation
File or (ii) a third party shall institute any court proceeding by which any Collateral Obligation File or a document included within a Collateral Obligation File 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 (to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law) 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 Collateral Obligation Files 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 Collateral Obligation File or a document included within such Collateral
Obligation File as directed by the Administrative Agent, which shall give a direction consistent with such determination. Expenses of the Collateral Custodian incurred as a result of such proceedings shall be borne by the Borrower. 

  
 -118- 







  (vii)      The Administrative Agent may
direct the Collateral Custodian to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Collateral Custodian hereunder, the Collateral Custodian 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 Administrative Agent; provided that the
Collateral Custodian shall not be required to take any action hereunder at the request of the Administrative Agent, any Secured Parties or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Custodian,
(x) shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Custodian to liability hereunder or otherwise (unless it has received indemnity which it reasonably deems to
be satisfactory with respect thereto). In the event the Collateral Custodian requests the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Administrative Agent within
ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action. 

(viii)      The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Collateral Custodian, or the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Custodian
shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter hereunder, including a Facility Termination Event, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Custodian has knowledge of such matter or written notice thereof is received by the
Collateral Custodian. 
 Section 18.3   Delivery of Collateral Obligation
Files.   (a) In connection with each delivery of a Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian, the Borrower shall represent, warrant and agree that the Collateral Obligation Files delivered to the Collateral
Custodian shall include all of the documents listed in the related Document Checklist and all of such documents and the information contained in the Schedule of Collateral Obligations are complete in all material respects and correct pursuant to a
certification in the form of Exhibit H executed by or on behalf of the Borrower. 

(b)       Reserved. 

(c)       With respect to any documents comprising the Collateral
Obligation File that have been delivered or are being delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned to the Borrower or the Investment Manager in time to permit their delivery hereunder at the time required, in lieu of
delivering such original documents, the Borrower or the Investment Manager shall indicate such on a Schedule of Collateral Obligations supplement and deliver to the Collateral Custodian a true copy thereof. The Borrower or the Investment Manager
shall deliver such original documents to the Collateral Custodian promptly when they are received. 

Section 18.4   Collateral Obligation File Certification.  (a) On or prior to each
Funding Date, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to provide a Schedule of Collateral Obligations and related Document Checklist dated as of such Funding Date to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent (such information
contained on the Schedule of 

  
 -119- 







 
Collateral Obligations shall also be delivered to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent simultaneously in Microsoft Excel format) with respect to the Collateral Obligations to be
delivered to the Collateral Agent on such Funding Date. 
 (b)      In
connection with (and as a part of) each Monthly Report, with respect to the Collateral Obligation Files delivered at least three (3) Business Days’ prior to the related Reporting Date, the Collateral Custodian shall prepare a report (to be
included as a part of each Monthly Report) in respect of each of the Collateral Obligations, to the effect that, as to each Collateral Obligation listed on the Schedule of Collateral Obligations attached to the related Advance Request or
Reinvestment Request, based on the Collateral Custodian’s examination of the Collateral Obligation File for each Collateral Obligation and the related Document Checklist, except for variances from the documents identified in the Document
Checklist with respect to the related Collateral Obligation Files (“Exceptions”), (i) all documents required to be delivered in respect of such Collateral Obligations pursuant to the Document Checklist have been delivered and
are in the possession of the Collateral Custodian as part of the Collateral Obligation File for such Collateral Obligation (other than those released pursuant to Section 18.5), and (ii) all such documents have been reviewed by the
Collateral Custodian and appear on their face to be regular and to relate to such Collateral Obligation. The Collateral Custodian shall also maintain records of the total number of Collateral Obligation Files that do not have the documents provided
on the Document Checklist and will include such total in each Monthly Report. 

(c)      Notwithstanding any language to the contrary herein, the Collateral
Custodian shall make no representations as to, and shall not be responsible to verify, (i) the validity, legality, ownership, title, perfection, priority, enforceability, due authorization, recordability, sufficiency for any purpose, or
genuineness of any of the documents contained in each Collateral Obligation File or (ii) the collectability, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any such Collateral Obligation. 

Section 18.5   Release of Collateral Obligation Files.  (a) Upon satisfaction of any
of the conditions set forth in Section 12.3, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to provide an Officer’s Certificate to such effect to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) and shall request in
writing delivery to it of the Collateral Obligation File and a copy thereof shall be sent concurrently by the Investment Manager to the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of such certification and request, unless it receives notice to the contrary
from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall within three Business Days release the related Collateral Obligation File to the Investment Manager and the Investment Manager will not be required to return the related Collateral
Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian. 
 (b)      From time to time
and as appropriate for the management or foreclosure of any of the Collateral Obligations, including, for this purpose, collection under any insurance policy relating to the Collateral Obligations, the Collateral Custodian shall, upon receipt of a
Request for Release and Receipt substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 from an authorized representative of the Investment Manager (as listed on Exhibit F-1, as such exhibit may be amended from
time to time by the Investment Manager with notice to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent), release the related Collateral Obligation File or the documents set forth in such Request for Release and Receipt to the Investment


  
 -120- 







 
Manager. In the event an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default or an Investment Manager Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall not permit the Investment Manager to make any such request with respect to any original documents unless the Administrative Agent shall have consented in writing thereto (which consent may be evidenced
by an executed counterpart to such request). The Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to return each and every original document previously requested from the Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian when the need therefor by
the Investment Manager no longer exists unless (x) the Collateral Obligation File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing
legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Related Security either judicially or non-judicially, and (y) the Investment Manager has delivered to the Collateral Custodian a certificate executed by an Executive Officer
certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Collateral Obligation File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery, in which case the Investment Manager shall complete such return as soon as
possible. Upon receipt of a certificate of the Investment Manager substantially in the form of Exhibit F-3, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, stating that such Collateral Obligation was either
(x) liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited have been so deposited, or (y) sold pursuant to an Optional Sale in accordance with
Section 7.10, the Collateral Custodian shall within three (3) Business Days release the Request for Release and Receipt to the Investment Manager, or, in connection with an Optional Sale, the requested Collateral Obligation File,
and the Investment Manager will not be required to return the related Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian. 

(c)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the
Borrower shall not permit the Investment Manager to, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, request any documents (other than copies thereof) held by the Collateral Custodian if the sum of the unpaid Principal Balances of all
Collateral Obligations for which the Investment Manager is then in possession of the related Collateral Obligation File or any document comprising such Collateral Obligation File (other than for Collateral Obligations then held by the Investment
Manager which have been sold, repurchased, paid off or liquidated in accordance with this Agreement) (including the documents to be requested) exceeds 5% of the Adjusted Aggregate Eligible Collateral Obligation Balance. The Investment Manager may
hold, and hereby acknowledges that it shall hold, any documents and all other property included in the Collateral that it may from time to time receive hereunder as Collateral Custodian for the Secured Parties solely at the will of the Collateral
Custodian and the Secured Parties for the sole purpose of facilitating the management of the Collateral Obligations and such retention and possession shall be in a custodial capacity only. To the extent the Investment Manager, as agent of the
Collateral Custodian and the Borrower, holds any Collateral, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to do so in accordance with the Investment Management Standard as such standard applies to investment managers acting as custodial agent.
The Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to promptly report to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent the loss by it of all or part of any Collateral Obligation File previously provided to it by the Collateral Custodian and
shall 

  
 -121- 







 
promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such loss. In such custodial capacity, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to perform the following powers and duties: 

  (i)      hold the Collateral Obligation Files and any document comprising a
Collateral Obligation File that it may from time to time receive hereunder from the Collateral Custodian for the benefit of the Collateral Custodian, on behalf of the Secured Parties, maintain accurate records pertaining to each Collateral
Obligation to enable it to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and maintain a current inventory thereof; 

 (ii)      implement policies and procedures consistent with the Investment Management
Standard and requirements of this Agreement so that the integrity and physical possession of such Collateral Obligation Files will be maintained; and 

(iii)      take all other actions, in accordance with the Investment Management Standard, in
connection with maintaining custody of such Collateral Obligation Files on behalf of the Collateral Agent. 
 Acting as custodian of the
Collateral Obligation Files pursuant to this Section 18.5, the Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to agree that it does not and will not have or assert any beneficial ownership interest in the Collateral Obligations or the
Collateral Obligation Files. 
 Section 18.6   Examination of Collateral Obligation
Files.  Upon reasonable prior notice to the Collateral Custodian, the Borrower, the Investment Manager and their agents, accountants, attorneys and auditors will be permitted during normal business hours to examine and make copies of
the Collateral Obligation Files, documents, records and other papers in the possession of or under the control of the Collateral Custodian relating to any or all of the Collateral Obligations. Prior to the occurrence of an Unmatured Facility
Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default or an Investment Manager Event of Default, upon the request of the Administrative Agent and at the cost and expense of the Borrower, the Collateral
Custodian shall promptly provide the Administrative Agent with the Collateral Obligation Files or copies, as designated by the Administrative Agent, subject to any applicable cap on costs and expenses, the Collateral Custodian shall promptly provide
the Administrative Agent with the Collateral Obligation Files or copies, as designated by the Administrative Agent; provided, the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to provide such copies if it does not receive adequate assurance of
payment. 
 Section 18.7   Lost Note Affidavit.  In the event that the Collateral
Custodian fails to produce any original promissory note delivered to it related to a Collateral Obligation that was in its possession pursuant to Section 10.22 within five (5) Business Days after required or requested by the
Administrative Agent and provided that (a) the Collateral Custodian previously certified in writing to the Administrative Agent that it had received such original promissory note and (b) such original promissory note is not
outstanding pursuant to a Request for Release and Receipt, then the Collateral Custodian shall with respect to any missing original promissory note, promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent upon request a lost note affidavit. 

Section 18.8   Transmission of Collateral Obligation Files.  Written instructions as to
the method of shipment and shipper(s) the Collateral Custodian is directed to utilize in connection 

  
 -122- 







 
with the transmission of Collateral Obligation Files in the performance of the Collateral Custodian’s duties hereunder shall be delivered by the Borrower or the Investment Manager to the
Collateral Custodian prior to any shipment of any Collateral Obligation Files hereunder. In the event the Collateral Custodian does not receive such written instruction from the Borrower or the Investment Manager, the Collateral Custodian shall be
authorized and indemnified as provided herein to utilize a nationally recognized courier service. The Borrower shall cause the Investment Manager to arrange for the provision of such services at its sole cost and expense (or, at the Collateral
Custodian’s option, reimburse the Collateral Custodian for all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Custodian consistent with such instructions) and shall maintain such insurance against loss or damage to the Collateral Obligation
Files as the Investment Manager deems appropriate. 
 Section 18.9   Merger or
Consolidation.    Any Person (i) into which the Collateral Custodian may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral Custodian shall be a party, or
(iii) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Collateral Custodian substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Collateral Custodian
hereunder, shall be the successor to the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement. 

Section 18.10  Collateral Custodian Compensation.   As compensation for its Collateral

Custodian may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Agreement upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice to the Investment Manager, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; provided, that no resignation or
removal of the Collateral Custodian will be permitted unless a successor Collateral Custodian has been appointed which successor Collateral Custodian, so long as no Unmatured Investment Manager Event of Default, Investment Manager Event of Default,
Unmatured Facility Termination Event or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, is reasonably acceptable to the Investment Manager. Promptly after receipt of notice of the Collateral Custodian’s resignation, the

(b)      The Administrative Agent upon at least 60 days’ prior written
notice to the Collateral Custodian, may remove and discharge the Collateral Custodian or any successor Collateral Custodian thereafter appointed from the performance of its duties under this Agreement for cause. Promptly after giving notice of
removal of the Collateral Custodian, the Administrative Agent shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Collateral Custodian. Any such appointment shall be accomplished by written instrument and one
original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to the Collateral Custodian and the successor Collateral Custodian, with a copy delivered to the Borrower and the Investment Manager. 

(c)      In the event of any such resignation or removal, the Collateral
Custodian shall, no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of the successor Collateral Custodian, transfer to the successor Collateral Custodian, as directed in writing by the Administrative Agent, all the Collateral
Obligation Files being administered under this Agreement. The cost of the shipment of Collateral Obligation Files arising out of the resignation of the Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 18.11(a), or the termination for cause of
the Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 18.11(b), shall be at the expense of the Collateral Custodian. Any cost of shipment arising out of the removal or discharge of the Collateral Custodian without cause pursuant to
Section 18.11(b) shall be at the expense of the Borrower. 
 Section 18.12  Limitations on
Liability.  (a) The Collateral Custodian may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document delivered to it and that in good faith
it reasonably believes to be genuine and that has been signed by the proper party or parties. The Collateral Custodian may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected in acting upon (a) the written instructions of any designated officer
of the Administrative Agent or (b) the verbal instructions of the Administrative Agent. 

(b)      The Collateral Custodian may consult counsel satisfactory to it and
the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 

(c)      The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable for any error of
judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct or grossly
negligent performance or omission of its duties and in the case of the grossly negligent performance of its duties in taking and retaining custody of the Collateral Obligation Files; provided that, the Collateral Custodian hereby agrees that
any failure of the Collateral Custodian to produce an original promissory note satisfying the conditions described in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 18.7 shall constitute negligence. 

  
 -124- 







 (d)      The Collateral Custodian
makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the
Collateral, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral. The Collateral Custodian shall not be obligated to take any action
hereunder that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. 

(e)      The Collateral Custodian shall have no duties or responsibilities
except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Custodian. 

 (f)      The Collateral Custodian shall not be required to expend or risk
its own funds in the performance of its duties hereunder. In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not
limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action (including any laws, ordinances, regulations) or the like that delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of services by the
Collateral Custodian as contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (g)      It is
expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Custodian is not guaranteeing performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral. 

(h)      In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the
Collateral Custodian may, prior to the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event or the Facility Termination Date, request instructions from the Investment Manager and may, after the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event or the Facility
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 Administrative Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for special,
indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Collateral Custodian has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

(i)      Each of the protections, reliances, indemnities and immunities offered
to the Collateral Agent in Section 11.7 and Section 11.8 shall be afforded to the Collateral Custodian. 

Section 18.13  Collateral Custodian as Agent of Collateral Agent.    The Collateral
Custodian agrees that, with respect to any Collateral Obligation File at any time or times in its possession or held in its name, the Collateral Custodian shall be the agent and custodian of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, for purposes of perfecting (to the extent not otherwise perfected) the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral and for the 

  
 -125- 







 
purpose of ensuring that such security interest is entitled to first priority status under the UCC. For so long as the Collateral Custodian is the same entity as the Collateral Agent, the
Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to the same rights and protections afforded to the Collateral Agent hereunder.
