for the rendering of, such services and to assume the obligations herein set forth subject to the reimbursement of costs and expenses
provided for below. The Administrator and such others shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be independent contractors and

or otherwise be deemed agents of the Company.













(b)          Services.
The Administrator shall perform (or oversee, or arrange for, the performance of) the administrative services necessary for the
operation of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator shall provide the Company with office
facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities and such other services as the Administrator,
subject to review by the Board, shall from time to time determine to be necessary or useful to perform its obligations under this
Agreement. The Administrator shall also, on behalf of the Company, conduct relations with custodians, depositories, transfer agents,
dividend disbursing agents, other stockholder servicing agents, accountants, attorneys, underwriters, brokers and dealers, corporate
fiduciaries, insurers, banks and such other persons in any such other capacity deemed to be necessary or desirable. The Administrator
shall make reports to the Board of its performance of obligations hereunder and furnish advice and recommendations with respect
to such other aspects of the business and affairs of the Company as it shall determine to be desirable; provided that nothing herein
shall be construed to require the Administrator to, and the Administrator shall not, provide any advice or recommendation relating
to the securities and other assets that the Company should purchase, retain or sell or any other investment advisory services to
the Company. The Administrator shall be responsible for the financial and other records that the Company is required to maintain,
and under the Investment Company Act, shall prepare, print and disseminate reports to stockholders, and reports and other materials
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Administrator will provide on the
Company’s behalf significant managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide
such assistance. In addition, the Administrator will assist the Company in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset
