ARTICLE I. 

DEFINITIONS 

SECTION 1.01 Certain Defined Terms. 
 (a) Certain capitalized terms used throughout this Agreement are defined above or in this Section 1.01. 
 (b) As used in this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules thereto (each of which is hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof), the following terms shall have the following meanings (such

Section 8.03. 
 “Additional Amount” has the meaning assigned to that term in

 “Adjusted Borrowing Value” means for any Loan Asset, for any date of
determination, an amount equal to the Assigned Value of such Loan Asset at such time multiplied by the Outstanding Balance of such Loan Asset; provided that the parties hereby agree that the Adjusted Borrowing Value of any Loan Asset that is

of the Cut-Off Date, in its sole discretion. 
 “Advances Outstanding” means, at any time, the sum of the
principal amounts of Advances loaned to the Borrower for the initial and any subsequent borrowings pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.02 as of such time, reduced by the aggregate Available Collections received and distributed as repayment

otherwise at or prior to such time; provided that the principal amounts of Advances outstanding shall not be reduced by any Available Collections or other amounts if at any time such Available Collections or other amounts are rescinded or

principal amount thereof, and (ii) each repayment of principal thereof, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded. The failure of any Lender Agent to make any such notation on
the schedule attached to any Variable Funding Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with their respective terms as set forth herein. 

SECTION 2.02 Procedure for Advances. 
 (a) During the Reinvestment Period, the Lenders will make Advances on any Business Day at the request of the Borrower, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 2.01
and 2.02 and subject to the provisions of Article III hereof. 

  
 -37-









 (b) Each Advance shall be made upon delivery of an irrevocable request for an Advance from
the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed date of such Advance (which shall be a Business Day), in the form of a Notice of Borrowing. Each
Notice of Borrowing shall include a duly completed Borrowing Base Certificate (updated to the date such Advance is requested and giving pro forma effect to the Advance requested and the use of the proceeds thereof), and shall specify:

 (i) the aggregate amount of such Advance, which amount shall not cause the Advances Outstanding to exceed the
Borrowing Base; provided that the amount of such Advance must be at least equal to $500,000; 
 (ii) the
proposed date of such Advance and, if such Advance is to be a Fixed LIBOR Advance, the related Fixed Period (it being understood that if notice of such Advance is not provided at least two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Cut-Off Date,
then such Advance shall be a Daily LIBOR Advance for two Business Days following which the Advance shall convert to a Fixed LIBOR Advance); and 
 (iii) a representation that all conditions precedent for an Advance described in Article III hereof have been satisfied. 
 On the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, each Lender shall, in accordance with instructions received by the Administrative Agent from
the Borrower, make available to the Borrower, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance, by payment into the account which the Borrower has designated in writing. 

(c) The Advances shall bear interest at the Yield Rate. 
 (d) Subject to Section 2.18 and the other terms, conditions, provisions and limitations set forth herein (including, without limitation, the payment of the Prepayment Premium, as applicable),
the Borrower may borrow, repay or prepay and reborrow Advances without any penalty, fee or premium on and after the Closing Date and prior to the end of the Reinvestment Period. 

(e) A determination by Wells Fargo of the existence of any Eurodollar Disruption Event (any such determination to be communicated to the
Borrower by written notice from the Administrative Agent promptly after the Administrative Agent learns of such event), or of the effect of any Eurodollar Disruption Event on its making or maintaining Advances at LIBOR, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 
 (f) The obligation of each Conduit Lender and each Institutional Lender to remit its Pro Rata Share of any
Advance shall be several from that of each other Lender and the failure of any Conduit Lender or Institutional Lender to so make such amount available to the Borrower shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder.

 SECTION 2.03 Determination of Yield; Conversions of Advances; Limitations on Fixed
LIBOR Advances. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Yield for the Advances (including unpaid Yield related
thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment Date) to be paid by the Borrower on each Payment Date for the related Remittance Period and shall advise the Servicer thereof on the third Business Day prior to such Payment Date. 

(b) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Fixed LIBOR Advances to Daily LIBOR Advances by giving the Administrative Agent
prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Fixed LIBOR Advances may only be made on the last day of a Fixed Period with
respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Daily LIBOR Advances to Fixed LIBOR Advances by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 p.m. on the second Business Day
preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Fixed Period therefor); provided that no Daily LIBOR Advances may be converted into Fixed LIBOR Advances after the earliest to occur of an Event of
Default, an Unmatured Event of Default or the Facility Maturity Date. 
 (c) Any Fixed LIBOR Advance may be continued in whole
or in part (including by combining with other Fixed LIBOR Advances that have Fixed Periods expiring on the same date or with Daily LIBOR Advances) upon the expiration of the then current Fixed Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving prior
irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Fixed Period setting forth the length of the next Fixed Period to be applicable to such
Fixed LIBOR Advance; provided that no Fixed LIBOR Advance may be continued after the earliest to occur of an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default or the Facility Maturity Date; provided, further, that if the Borrower
shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Advance shall be automatically converted to a Daily LIBOR Advance on the last day of such
then expiring Fixed Period. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and
continuations of Fixed LIBOR Advances and all selections of Fixed Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of Fixed LIBOR Advances allocated
to each Fixed Period shall be equal to $10,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten (10) Fixed Periods shall be outstanding at any one time.

SECTION 2.10 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. 
 (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change following the date hereof (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the
interpretation, administration or application following the date hereof of any Applicable Law (including, without limitation, any law or regulation resulting in any interest payments paid to any Lender under this Agreement being subject to any Tax,
except for Taxes on the overall net income of such Lender), in each case whether foreign or domestic or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request following the date hereof from any central bank or


  
 -49-









 
other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank or any
Affiliate, participant, successor or assign thereof (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Advance (or any reduction of the amount of any payment (whether of principal,
interest, fee, compensation or otherwise) to any Affected Party hereunder), as the case may be, or there shall be any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement, under any other Transaction
Document or any Liquidity Agreement, the Borrower shall, from time to time, after written demand by the Administrative Agent (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), on behalf
of such Affected Party, pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Affected Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Party for such increased costs or reduced payments within 10 days after such demand; provided
that the amounts payable under this Section 2.10 shall be without duplication of amounts payable under Section 2.11 and shall not include any Excluded Taxes. 

(b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change following the date hereof in or in the interpretation, administration or
application following the date hereof of any law, guideline, rule or regulation, directive or request or (ii) the compliance by any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request following the date hereof, from
any central bank, any Governmental Authority or agency, including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected Party 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 Party, 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 Party could have achieved but for such introduction,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to time, after demand by such Affected Party (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 Party such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party
for such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in cost and/or reduction in Yield with respect to any Affected Party caused by regulatory capital allocation adjustments due to FAS 166, 167 and subsequent statements and interpretations
shall constitute a circumstance on which such Affected Party may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 2.10. 
 (c) If as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.10, any Affected Party is required to compensate a
bank or other financial institution providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such Affected Party in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Advances hereunder, then within ten days after
demand by such Affected Party, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Affected Party for any amounts payable or paid by it. 

(d) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.10, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and
attribution methods. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Affected Party making a claim under this Section 2.10, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of
such additional or increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 -50-









 (e) Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Party’s right to demand or receive such compensation. 
 SECTION 2.11 Taxes. 
 (a) All payments made by an Obligor in respect
of a Loan Asset and all payments made by the Borrower or made by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes. If any Taxes are
required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Indemnified Party, then the amount payable to such Person will be increased (the amount of such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this
Agreement after withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes on such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made. The foregoing obligation to
pay Additional Amounts with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrower or Servicer under this Agreement will not, however, apply with respect to Taxes imposed on or measured by net income or franchise Taxes imposed on any Indemnified
Party by a taxing jurisdiction in which any such Person is organized, conducts business or is paying Taxes (as the case may be) (“Excluded Taxes”). 
 (b) The Borrower will indemnify from funds available to it pursuant to Section 2.04 (and to the extent the funds available for indemnification provided by the Borrower are insufficient the
Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, will indemnify) each Indemnified Party for the full amount of Taxes payable by such Person in respect of Additional Amounts and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto. All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date a written invoice therefor is delivered to the Borrower. 
 (c) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower or by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, will furnish to the Administrative
Agent and the Lender Agents at the applicable address set forth on this Agreement, appropriate evidence of payment thereof. 

(d) If any assignee of a Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, such
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, (i) within 15 days after becoming an assignee hereunder, two (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law) duly completed copies of
IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements that may be required from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or Applicable Law), as appropriate and (ii) upon the obsolescence
of or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in, any form or certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(d), copies (in such numbers as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law or
regulations) of such additional, amended or successor forms, certificates or statements as may be required under Applicable Law. 

  
 -51-









 (e) If, in connection with an agreement or other document providing liquidity support,
credit enhancement or other similar support to any Lender in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Advances hereunder, such Lender is required to compensate a bank or other financial institution in respect of Taxes under
circumstances similar to those described in this Section 2.11, then, within 10 days after demand by each applicable Lender, the Servicer shall pay (or to the extent the Servicer does not make such payment the Borrower shall pay) to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Lender for any amounts paid by them. 
 (f)
Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower and the Servicer hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the Servicer contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.12 Collateral Assignment of Agreements. The Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all of the Borrower’s right and title to and interest in, to and under (but not any obligations under) the Purchase and Sale Agreement (and any UCC financing statements filed under or in
connection therewith), the Loan Agreements related to each Loan Asset, all other agreements, documents and instruments evidencing, securing or guarantying any Loan Asset and all other agreements, documents and instruments related to any of the
foregoing but excluding any Excluded Amounts, Attached Equity or Retained Interest (the “Assigned Documents”). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent,
for the benefit of the Secured Parties, its right to indemnification under Article IX of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Borrower confirms that until the Collection Date the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) on
behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith for the benefit of the Secured
Parties. The parties hereto agree that such collateral assignment to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall terminate upon the Collection Date. 
 SECTION 2.13 Grant of a Security Interest. To secure the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations and
the performance by the Borrower of all of the covenants and obligations to be performed by it pursuant to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or
contingent, the Borrower hereby (a) collaterally assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and (b) grants a security interest to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in all of the
Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under (but none of the obligations under) all of the Collateral Portfolio, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower, and wherever the same may be located. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Portfolio shall not include any Excluded Amounts, and the Borrower does not hereby assign, pledge or grant a security interest in any such amounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the
Borrower shall remain liable under the Collateral Portfolio to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral Portfolio shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral Portfolio, and (c) none of


  
 -52-









 
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender (nor its successors and assigns), any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank nor any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability
under the Collateral Portfolio by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender (nor its successors and assigns), any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank nor any Secured Party be obligated to perform any
of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.14 Evidence of Debt. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as the agent of the Borrower, at its address referred to in Section 11.02 a copy of
each assignment and acceptance agreement and participation agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses and interests of the Lenders (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Lender Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender under this
Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

SECTION 2.15 Survival of Representations and Warranties. It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set forth in Sections 4.01, 4.02 and 4.03 are made and are true and correct on the date of this Agreement and on each Cut-Off Date unless such representations and warranties are made as of a specific date. 

SECTION 2.16 Release of Loan Assets. 
 (a) The Borrower may obtain the release of (i) any Loan Asset (and the related Portfolio Assets pertaining thereto) released pursuant to a Lien Release Dividend or sold or substituted in accordance
with the applicable provisions of Section 2.07 and any Portfolio Assets pertaining to such Loan Asset and (ii) any Collateral Portfolio that expires by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid in full by the
related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall at the sole expense of the Borrower and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, execute such documents and instruments
of release as may be prepared by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower, give notice of such release to the Collateral Custodian (in the form of Exhibit N) (unless the Collateral Custodian and Collateral Agent are the same Person) and take
other such actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Borrower to effect such release of the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement. Upon receiving such notification by the Collateral Agent as described in the immediately preceding sentence,
if applicable, the Collateral Custodian shall deliver the Required Loan Documents to the Borrower. 
 (b) Promptly after the
Collection Date has occurred, each Lender and the Administrative Agent, in accordance with their respective interests, shall release to the Borrower, for no consideration but at the sole expense of the Borrower, their respective remaining interests
in the Portfolio Assets, free and clear of any Lien resulting solely from an act by the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Administrative Agent but without any other representation or warranty, express or implied, by or recourse against any Lender
or the Administrative Agent.

 SECTION 2.17 Treatment of Amounts Received by the Borrower. Amounts received by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.07 on account of Loan Assets shall be treated as payments of Principal Collections or Interest Collections, as applicable, on Loan Assets hereunder. 

SECTION 2.18 Prepayment; Termination. 
 (a) Except as expressly permitted or required herein, including, without limitation, any repayment necessary to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency, Advances may only be prepaid in whole or in part at the
option of the Borrower at any time by delivering a Notice of Reduction (which notice shall include a Borrowing Base Certificate) to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lender Agents at least one Business Day prior to such
reduction. Upon any prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay in full any Breakage Fees (solely to the extent such prepayment occurs on any day other than a Payment Date) and other accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of Administrative Agent, Lender
Agents and Lenders related to such prepayment; provided that no reduction in Advances Outstanding shall be given effect unless (i) sufficient funds have been remitted to pay all such amounts in full, as determined by the Administrative
Agent, in its sole discretion and (ii) no event has occurred or would result from such prepayment which would constitute an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default. The Administrative Agent shall apply amounts received from the
Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) to the payment of any Breakage Fees and to the pro rata reduction of the Advances Outstanding. Any notice relating to any repayment pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) shall be
irrevocable. 
 (b) The Borrower may, at its option, terminate this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents upon three
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents and upon payment in full of all outstanding Advances; all accrued and unpaid Yield; any Breakage Fees; all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent, Lender Agents and Lenders; to the extent terminated within one year of the Closing Date, payment of the Prepayment Premium pro rata to each Lender Agent (for the account of the applicable Lender) and payment of all other
Obligations (other than unmatured contingent indemnification obligations). Any termination of this Agreement shall be subject to Section 11.05. 
 (c) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Prepayment Premium constitutes additional consideration for the Lenders to enter into this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.19 [Reserved]. 
 SECTION 2.20 Collections and Allocations. 
 (a) The Servicer shall
promptly identify any collections received as being on account of Interest Collections, Principal Collections or other Available Collections and shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, all Available Collections received directly by it to the
Collection Account by the close of business two Business Days after such Collections are received. Upon the transfer of Available Collections to the Collection Account, the Servicer shall segregate Principal Collections and Interest Collections and
transfer the same to the 

  
 -54-









 
Principal Collection Account and the Interest Collection Account, respectively. The Servicer shall further include a statement as to the amount of Principal Collections and Interest Collections
on deposit in the Principal Collection Account and the Interest Collection Account on each Reporting Date in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.08(b). 

(b) On the Cut-Off Date with respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer will deposit into the Collection Account all Available Collections
received in respect of Eligible Loan Assets being transferred to and included as part of the Collateral Portfolio on such date. 

(c) With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (a copy of which will be provided by the Servicer to the Collateral
Agent), the Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent a report setting
forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent. 
 (d) Prior to Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined in the Collection Account Agreement), the Servicer shall, pursuant to written instruction (which may be in the form of standing instructions), direct
the Collateral Agent to invest, or cause the investment of, funds on deposit in the Collection Account in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, such funds shall not be
invested. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in any Collection Account shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date, and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such
Permitted Investments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or its nominee for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and otherwise comply with assumptions of the legal opinions of Milbank Tweed Hadley McCloy LLP
dated the Closing Date and delivered in connection with this Agreement; provided that compliance shall be the responsibility of the Borrower and the Servicer and not the Collateral Agent and Account Bank. All income and gain realized from any
such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in any Collection Account shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. In the event the Borrower or Servicer direct the funds to be invested in
investments which are not Permitted Investments, the Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account (with respect to investments made hereunder of funds held therein), an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred, in respect of any
such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Lender Agent or any Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any investment,
or lack of investment, of funds held in the Collection Account, other than with respect to fraud or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates may receive
compensation with respect to the Permitted Investments. 
 (e) Until the Collection Date, neither the Borrower nor the Servicer
shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 2.04 or Section 2.21.

Collateral Agent by facsimile or email (to be received no later than 1:00 p.m. on such day) of the request to withdraw Principal Collections and the amount of such request;

Account; or 
 (b) withdraw such funds for the purpose of making payments in respect of the Advances Outstanding at such time in
accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.18. 
 Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set
forth in this Section 2.21 (as certified by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent will release funds from the Principal Collection Account to the Servicer in an amount not to exceed the
lesser of (A) the amount requested by the Servicer and (B) the amount on deposit in the Principal Collection Account on such day.

 The failure of the Borrower to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions precedent in respect
of any Advance shall give rise to a right of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender Agent, which right may be exercised at any time on the demand of the applicable Lender Agent, to rescind the related Advance and direct the Borrower to
pay to the applicable Lender Agent for the benefit of the applicable Lender an amount equal to the Advances made during any such time that any of the foregoing conditions precedent were not satisfied or waived in writing.

Section 2.06, a Substitute Eligible Loan Asset pursuant to Section 2.07(a) or (c), an additional Eligible Loan Asset pursuant to Section 2.21 or any other Pledge of a Loan Asset hereunder shall be subject

material action, suit, proceeding, dispute, offset, deduction, defense or counterclaim (1) that is or is threatened to be asserted by an Obligor with respect to any Loan Asset (or portion thereof) of which it has knowledge or has received
notice; or (2) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

 It is acknowledged and agreed that in circumstances in which a Person other than the Borrower, the Transferor (so long as the Transferor is also the Servicer) or the Servicer acts as lead agent with
respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer shall perform its servicing duties hereunder only to the extent a lender under the related loan syndication Loan Agreements has the right to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it
is acknowledged and agreed that the performance by the Servicer of its duties hereunder shall be limited insofar as such performance would conflict with or result in a breach of any of the express terms of the related Loan Agreements;
provided that the Servicer shall (a) provide prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent upon becoming aware of such conflict or breach, (b) have determined that there is no other commercially reasonable performance that it
could render consistent with the express terms of the Loan Agreements which would result in all or a portion of the servicing duties being performed in accordance with this Agreement, and (c) undertake all commercially

reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of such non-performance including performing as much of the servicing duties as possible and performing such other commercially reasonable and/or

 (c) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any
indebtedness owed by it to the Transferor or the Borrower shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, be applied as a collection of a
payment by such Obligor (starting with the oldest such outstanding payment due) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor. 

SECTION 6.03 Authorization of the Servicer. 
 (a) Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Lender Agent and each Lender hereby authorizes the Servicer (including any successor thereto) to take any and all reasonable steps in its name and
on its behalf necessary or desirable in the determination of the Servicer and not inconsistent with the sale of the Collateral Portfolio by the Transferor to the Borrower under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and, thereafter, the Pledge by the
Borrower to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties hereunder, to collect all amounts due under any and all Collateral Portfolio, including, without limitation, endorsing any of their names on checks and other instruments representing
Interest Collections and Principal Collections, executing and delivering any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Collateral
Portfolio and, after the delinquency of any Collateral Portfolio and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with Applicable Law, to commence proceedings with respect to enforcing payment thereof, to the same extent as the Transferor could
have done if it had continued to own such Collateral Portfolio. The Transferor, the Borrower and the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall furnish the Servicer (and any successors thereto) with any powers of attorney and other
documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Servicer to the fullest extent in order to ensure the collectability of the Collateral Portfolio.

Borrower a party to any litigation (other than any routine foreclosure or similar collection procedure) without the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender Agent’s consent. 

(b) After the declaration of the Facility Maturity Date, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer shall take such
action as the Administrative Agent may deem 

  
 -97-









 
necessary or advisable to enforce collection of the Collateral Portfolio; provided that the Administrative Agent may, at any time that an Event of Default has occurred, notify any Obligor
with respect to any Collateral Portfolio of the assignment of such Collateral Portfolio to the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and direct that payments of all amounts due or to become due be made directly to the Administrative
Agent or any servicer, collection agent or account designated by the Administrative Agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent may enforce collection of any such Collateral Portfolio, and adjust,
settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof. 
 SECTION 6.04 Collection of Payments; Accounts. 

(a) Collection Efforts, Modification of Collateral Portfolio. The Servicer will use its commercially reasonable efforts and
judgment to collect or cause to be collected, all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Loan Assets included in the Collateral Portfolio as and when the same become due, all in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Servicer

the maturity of all or any Scheduled Payments and other amounts due under any Loan Asset promptly after such Loan Asset becomes defaulted.

(d) Payments to Collection Account. On or before the applicable Cut-Off Date, the Servicer shall have instructed all Obligors to
make all payments in respect of the Collateral Portfolio directly to the Collection Account; provided that the Servicer is not required to so instruct any Obligor which is solely a guarantor or other surety (or an Obligor that is not
designated as the “lead borrower” or another such similar term) unless and until the Servicer calls on the related guaranty or secondary obligation. 
 (e) Collection Account. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that (i) the Collection Account is intended to be a “securities account” or “deposit account” within the
meaning of the UCC and (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein and in the Collection Account Agreement, prior to the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined in the Collection Account Agreement), the Borrower, the
Servicer and the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to exercise the rights that comprise each Financial Asset held in the Collection Account and have the right to direct the disposition of funds
in the Collection Account; provided that after the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined in the Collection Account Agreement), such rights shall be exclusively held by the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the
Administrative Agent). Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to cause the securities intermediary that holds any money or other property for the 

  
 -98-









 
Borrower in the Collection Account to agree with the parties hereto that (A) the cash and other property (subject to Section 6.04(f) below with respect to any property other than
investment property, as defined in Section 9-102(a)(49) of the UCC) is to be treated as a Financial Asset under Article 8 of the UCC and (B) regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, with respect to the
Collection Account, New York shall be deemed to be the Account Bank’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 9-304 of the UCC) and the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 8-110 of the UCC).
All securities or other property underlying any Financial Assets credited to the Collection Account in the form of securities or instruments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or if in the name of the Borrower or the Collateral
Agent, Indorsed to the Account Bank, Indorsed in blank, or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Account Bank, and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to the Collection Account be registered in the name of the
Borrower, payable to the order of the Borrower or specially Indorsed to the Borrower, except to the extent the foregoing have been specially Indorsed to the Account Bank or Indorsed in blank. 

(f) Loan Agreements. Notwithstanding any term hereof (or any term of the UCC that might otherwise be construed to be applicable to
a “securities intermediary” as defined in the UCC) to the contrary, none of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian nor any securities intermediary shall be under any duty or obligation in connection with the acquisition by the
Borrower, or the grant by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent, of any Loan Asset in the nature of a loan or a participation in a loan to examine or evaluate the sufficiency of the documents or instruments delivered to it by or on behalf of the
Borrower under the related Loan Agreements, or otherwise to examine the Loan Agreements, in order to determine or compel compliance with any applicable requirements of or restrictions on transfer (including without limitation any necessary
consents). The Collateral Custodian shall hold any Instrument delivered to it evidencing any Loan Asset granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder as custodial agent for the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(g) Adjustments. If (i) the Servicer makes a deposit into the Collection Account in respect of an Interest Collection or
Principal Collection of a Loan Asset and such Interest Collection or Principal Collection was received by the Servicer in the form of a check that is not honored for any reason or (ii) the Servicer makes a mistake with respect to the amount of
any Interest Collection or Principal Collection and deposits an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such Interest Collection or Principal Collection, the Servicer shall appropriately adjust the amount subsequently deposited
into the Collection Account to reflect such dishonored check or mistake. Any Scheduled Payment in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid. 

SECTION 6.05 Realization Upon Loan Assets. The Servicer will use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to
foreclose upon or repossess, as applicable, or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of any Underlying Collateral relating to a defaulted Loan Asset as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. The
Servicer will comply with the Servicing Standard and Applicable Law in realizing upon such Underlying Collateral, and employ practices and procedures including reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to enforce all obligations of
Obligors foreclosing upon, repossessing and causing the sale of such Underlying Collateral at public or 

  
 -99-









 
private sale in circumstances other than those described in the preceding sentence. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless the Administrative Agent has specifically given
instruction to the contrary, the Servicer may cause the sale of any such Underlying Collateral to the Servicer or its Affiliates for a purchase price equal to the then fair value thereof, any such sale to be evidenced by a certificate of a
Responsible Officer of the Servicer delivered to the Administrative Agent setting forth the Loan Asset, the Underlying Collateral, the sale price of the Underlying Collateral and certifying that such sale price is the fair value of such Underlying
Collateral. In any case in which any such Underlying Collateral has suffered damage, the Servicer will not expend funds in connection with any repair or toward the foreclosure or repossession of such Underlying Collateral unless it reasonably
determines that such repair and/or foreclosure or repossession will increase the Recoveries by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. The Servicer will remit to the Collection Account the Recoveries received in connection with the sale
or disposition of Underlying Collateral relating to a defaulted Loan Asset. 
 SECTION 6.06 Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for its activities hereunder and reimbursement for its expenses, the Servicer shall be entitled to be paid the Servicing Fees and reimbursed its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as provided in Section 2.04.

company in connection with the maintenance of the Collection Account. The Servicer may be reimbursed for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred hereunder (including out-of-pocket expenses paid by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower),
subject to the availability of funds pursuant to Section 2.04; provided that, to the extent funds are not available for such reimbursement, the Servicer shall be required to pay such expenses for its own account and shall not be
entitled to any payment therefor other than the Servicing Fees.

ownership interest in all of the Collateral Portfolio; or 
 (s) [Reserved]; or 

(t) the Borrower makes any assignment or attempted assignment of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other

removal of any Independent Director of the Borrower without “cause” (as such term is defined in the organizational document of the Borrower) or without giving prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents, each as
required in the organizational documents of the Borrower or (iii) an Independent Director of the Borrower which is not provided by Puglisi & Associates or a nationally recognized service reasonably acceptable to the Administrative

Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, all other rights and remedies provided under the UCC of
the applicable jurisdiction and other Applicable Law, which rights shall be cumulative. Without limiting any obligation of the Servicer hereunder, the Borrower confirms and agrees that the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and at
the direction of the Administrative Agent, (or any designee thereof, including, without limitation, the Servicer), following an Event of Default, shall, at its option, have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under each
Assigned Document, but without any obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any of their respective Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such Assigned Document. If any
Event of Default shall have occurred, the Yield Rate shall be increased pursuant to the increase set forth in the definition of “Applicable Spread”, effective as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default, and shall apply after

hereunder are immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 7.01 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (ii) on the Facility Maturity Date, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances, all accrued and unpaid
Fees and Yield and any other Obligations are not immediately paid in full, then the Collateral Agent (acting as 

  
 -106-









 
directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, in addition to all other rights specified hereunder, shall have the right, in its own name and as agent for the Lenders and
Lender Agents, to immediately sell (at the Servicer’s expense) in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if one exists) at such price or prices as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all of the
Collateral Portfolio and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, in the case of the declaration of the Facility Maturity Date that
arises solely pursuant to Section 7.01(d) due solely to the occurrence of an event described in clauses (f) or (g) of the definition of “Servicer Termination Event” or clause (m) of the
definition of “Servicer Termination Event” (to the extent arising solely due to the occurrence of an event described in clauses (f) or (g) of the definition thereof), the Collateral Agent and the Administrative
Agent (as applicable) may not order the assembly or liquidation of the Collateral Portfolio, or take any action or exercise any power of attorney furnished hereunder in connection with such assembly or liquidation, until on or after the earlier of
(x) the date that is ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Facility Maturity Date or (y) the occurrence of a Facility Maturity Date for any other reason other than an event described in clauses (f) or
(g) of the definition of “Servicer Termination Event” or clause (m) of the definition of “Servicer Termination Event” (to the extent arising solely due to the occurrence of an event described in clauses
(f) or (g) of the definition thereof). 
 (b) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to sell all
of the Collateral Portfolio on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for the assets constituting the Collateral Portfolio may not be liquid. Accordingly, the Administrative
Agent may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any of the Collateral Portfolio, and nothing contained herein shall obligate the Administrative Agent to liquidate any of the Collateral Portfolio on the date the
Administrative Agent or all of the Lender Agents declares the Advances made to the Borrower hereunder to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 7.01 or to liquidate all of the Collateral Portfolio in the same manner or on the
same Business Day. 
 (c) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent
proposes to sell the Collateral Portfolio or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, at the request of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the Borrower and the Servicer shall make available
to (i) the Administrative Agent, on a timely basis, all information (including any information that the Borrower and the Servicer is required by law or contract to be kept confidential) relating to the Collateral Portfolio subject to sale,
including, without limitation, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant certificates and any other materials requested by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) each prospective
bidder, on a timely basis, all reasonable information relating to the Collateral Portfolio subject to sale, including, without limitation, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant
certificates and any other materials reasonably requested by each such bidder. 
 (d) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer
agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or


  
 -107-









 
hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral Portfolio may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of
any of the Collateral Portfolio or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer, for itself and all who may at any time
claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral Portfolio marshaled upon any such
sale, and agrees that the Collateral Agent, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf, or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral Portfolio as an entirety or in such parcels
as the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) or such court may determine. 
 (e) Any amounts
received from any sale or liquidation of the Collateral Portfolio pursuant to this Section 7.02 in excess of the Obligations will be applied by the Collateral Agent (as directed by the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2.04(c), or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. 
 (f) The
Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and the Lenders shall have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided herein and provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation, the rights and remedies
of a secured party under the UCC of any applicable state, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), all rights and remedies available to the Lenders at law, in equity or under any other agreement
between any Lender and the Borrower. 
 (g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by
this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any Event of Default. 
 (h) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby irrevocably appoints each of the
Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at its expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies after the occurrence of an
Event of Default provided for in this Agreement, including without limitation the following powers: (a) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (b) to make all necessary transfers of the
Collateral Portfolio in connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (c) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale
or other disposition, the Borrower and the Servicer hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto, and (d) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in
connection with or pursuant to any Transaction Document. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the
Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent or all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any power of attorney furnished hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any power of attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred. 

  
 -108-









 (i) (1) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the
Administrative Agent elects to sell the Collateral Portfolio in whole, but not in part, at a public or private sale, the Borrower may exercise its right of first refusal to repurchase the Collateral Portfolio, in whole but not in part, prior to such
sale at a purchase price that is not less than the amount of the Obligations as of the date of such proposed sale. The Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. on the second Business Day following the Business
Day on which the Borrower receives notice of the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s election to sell such Collateral Portfolio, such notice to attach copies of all Eligible Bids received by the Collateral Agent or the
Administrative Agent in respect of such Collateral Portfolio. 
 (2) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed
by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent elects to sell less than all of the Collateral Portfolio in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, the Borrower may exercise its right of first refusal to repurchase such portion of
the Collateral Portfolio prior to such sale at a purchase price of not less than the highest Eligible Bid received in respect of such portion of the Collateral Portfolio as of the date of such proposed sale, as notified by the Collateral Agent or
the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. The Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice of the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s
election to sell such portion of the Collateral Portfolio, if such notice is delivered by 12:00 p.m. on such Business Day; provided that if such notice is delivered after 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives such
notice, or if the highest Eligible Bid received in respect of such portion of the Collateral Portfolio is greater than $25,000,000, the Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 12:00 p.m. on the following Business Day.

 (3) If the Borrower elects not to exercise its right of first refusal as provided in clauses
(1) or (2) above, the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent shall sell such Collateral Portfolio or portion thereof for a purchase price equal to the highest of the
Eligible Bids then received. For the avoidance of doubt, any determination of the highest Eligible Bid shall only consider bids for the same parcels of the Collateral Portfolio. 

(4) It is understood that the Borrower may submit its bid for the Collateral Portfolio or any portion thereof as a
combined bid with the bids of other members of a group of bidders, and shall have the right to find bidders to bid on the Collateral Portfolio or any portion thereof. 

(5) It is understood that the Borrower’s right of first refusal shall apply to each proposed sale of the same parcel
of the Collateral Portfolio.

 (x) any action taken by the Borrower or the Servicer in the enforcement or

 (b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification
provisions of this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party within five Business Days following receipt by the Borrower of the Administrative Agent’s
written demand therefor on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party (and the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amounts). The
Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Indemnified Party making a request for indemnification under this Section 8.01, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of
the Indemnified Amounts with respect to which such indemnification is requested, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the
Borrower shall not be required to contribute in respect of any Indemnified Amounts excluded in Section 8.01(a).

Law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts, awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party as a consequence of any of the following, excluding, however, Indemnified
Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party claiming indemnification hereunder:

this Agreement, or (B) any Applicable Law applicable to it with respect to any Portfolio Assets;

 (vi) the commingling by the Servicer of payments and collections
required to be remitted to the Collection Account with other funds;

service and administer the Collateral Portfolio, or failure or delay in complying with instructions from the Administrative Agent with respect thereto; and/or

Indemnified Amounts excluded in Section 8.02(a). 
 (d) If the Servicer has made any payments in respect of
Indemnified Amounts to the Administrative Agent on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.02 and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay
such amounts collected to the Servicer in an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such Indemnified Amounts, without interest. 

  
 -114-









 (e) The Servicer shall have no liability for making indemnification hereunder to the extent
any such indemnification constitutes recourse for uncollectible or uncollected Loan Assets. 
 (f) The obligations of the
Servicer under this Section 8.02 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this
Agreement. 
 (g) Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall not be payable from the Collateral
Portfolio.

Indemnified Amounts. 
 SECTION 8.03 Legal Proceedings. In the event an Indemnified Party becomes involved in any
action, claim, or legal, governmental or administrative proceeding (an “Action”) for which it seeks indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the other party or parties against whom it seeks
indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the nature and particulars of the Action; provided that its failure to do so shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent
such failure has a material adverse effect on the Indemnifying Party. Upon written notice to the Indemnified Party acknowledging in writing that the indemnification provided hereunder applies to the Indemnified Party in connection with the Action
(subject to the exclusion in the first sentence of Section 8.01, the first sentence of Section 8.02 or Section 8.02(d), as applicable), the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of the Action at its expense
with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel in connection with the Action, and the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the legal fees and expenses of the
Indemnified Party after the Indemnifying Party has done so; provided that if the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection
with the Action, or that the Indemnifying Party is not conducting the defense of the Action in a manner reasonably protective of the interests of the Indemnified Party, the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party shall be paid by
the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (and any required local counsel) for such Indemnified Party, which firm (and local counsel, if any) shall be designated in writing to the
Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Action, it shall have full control over the conduct of such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall, as
reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party or its counsel, consult with and keep them informed with respect to the conduct of such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle an Action without the prior written approval of the Indemnified
Party unless such settlement provides for the full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in connection with the Action. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection with
the defense of the Action. 

  
 -115-









 SECTION 8.04 After-Tax Basis. Indemnification under Section 8.01 and
8.02 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder, 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 IX. 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDER AGENTS 
 SECTION 9.01 The Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Appointment. Each
Lender Agent and each Secured Party hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each
Lender Agent and each Secured Party. Each Lender Agent and each Secured Party further authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other
Transaction Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender
or Lender Agent, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine
of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 

(b) Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
agent or attorney in fact that it selects with reasonable care 
 (c) Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Lender, Lender Agent and each Secured Party hereby waives any and all claims against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for any action


  
 -116-









 
taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except for its or their own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or the Transferor), independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation and shall not be responsible
for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents on the part of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer; (iv) shall not be
responsible for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and
(v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
 (d) Actions by Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lender Agents as it deems
appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders and Lender Agents against any and all liability 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 or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Lender Agents; provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, shall be in violation of any
Applicable Law or contrary to any provision of this Agreement or shall expose the Administrative Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. In the event the Administrative Agent requests the consent of a Lender Agent pursuant to the foregoing
provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten Business Days of such Person’s receipt of such request, then such Lender or Lender Agent shall be deemed to have
declined to consent to the relevant action. 
 (e) Notice of Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer
Termination Event. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event, unless the Administrative Agent has received written
notice from a Lender, Lender Agent, the Borrower or the Servicer referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Event of
Default,” “Notice of Unmatured Event of Default” or “Notice of Servicer Termination Event,” as applicable. The Agent shall (subject to Section 9.01(c)) take such action with respect to such Event of Default,
Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event as may be requested by the Lender Agents acting jointly or as the Administrative Agent shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lender Agents. 

  
 -117-









 (f) Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender Agent and
each Secured Party acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of
any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Transferor or any of their respective Affiliates or review or approval of any of the Collateral Portfolio, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any
of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates to any Lender Agent as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender Agent and each Secured Party acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender Agent and each Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative
Agent’s Affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is
a party. Each Lender Agent and each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender Agent with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations,
property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Transferor or their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. 

(g) Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. Each Lender Agent agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower or the Servicer), ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any action taken
or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided that the Lender Agents shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Lender Agents shall be deemed to constitute gross
negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Article IX. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Agent agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender,
promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that such expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Lender Agents or
Lenders hereunder and/or thereunder and to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Servicer. 

  
 -118-









 (h) Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time,
effective upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, by giving at least five days’ written notice thereof to each Lender Agent and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the
Lender Agents and the Borrower acting jointly. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Lender Agents acting jointly shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Each Lender Agent agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its
approval of the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving
of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor Administrative Agent shall be either
(i) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 or (ii) an Affiliate of such a bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX
shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. 
 (i) Payments by the Administrative Agent. Unless specifically allocated to a specific Lender Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lender Agents shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lender Agents in accordance with their related Lender’s respective Pro Rata Shares in the applicable Advances Outstanding, or if there are no Advances Outstanding in
accordance with their related Lender’s most recent Commitments, on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless such amounts are received after 12:00 noon on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use
its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to each Lender Agent on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lender Agent not later than the following Business Day. 

SECTION 9.02 The Lender Agents. 
 (a) Authorization and Action. Each Lender, respectively, hereby designates and appoints its applicable Lender Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under each other Transaction Document, and
authorizes such Lender Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Lender Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. No Lender Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, or any fiduciary relationship with its related Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of such Lender Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other 

  
 -119-









 
Transaction Document or otherwise exist for such Lender Agent. In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, each Lender Agent shall act solely as
agent for its related Lender and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for the Borrower or the Servicer or any of the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s successors or
assigns. No Lender Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Lender Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or Applicable Law. The appointment and authority of each Lender
Agent hereunder shall terminate upon the indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations. Each Lender Agent hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file any UCC financing statement deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such
Lender Agent (the terms of which shall be binding on such Lender Agent). 
 (b) Delegation of Duties. Each Lender Agent
may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Lender Agent shall be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 (c)
Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Lender Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document (except for its, their or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) responsible in any manner to its related Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by
the Borrower or the Servicer contained in Article IV, any other Transaction Document or any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith, or for any failure of
the Borrower or the Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, or for the perfection, priority, condition, value or sufficiency of any collateral pledged in
connection herewith. No Lender Agent shall be under any obligation to its related Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or the Servicer. No Lender Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default unless such Lender Agent has received
notice from the Borrower or its related Lender. 
 (d) Reliance by Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any 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, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of its related Lender as it deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by its related Lender; provided that,
unless and until such 

  
 -120-









 
Lender Agent shall have received such advice, such Lender Agent may take or refrain from taking any action, as the Lender Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of its related
Lender. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance with a request of its related Lender, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding
upon its related Lender. 
 (e) Non-Reliance on Lender Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither its related
Lender 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 such Lender Agent hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of
the affairs of the Borrower or the Servicer, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Lender Agent. Each Lender represents and warrants to its related Lender Agent that it has and will, independently and without reliance
upon its related Lender Agent, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and
creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and all other documents related hereto or thereto. 
 (f) Lender Agents are in their Respective Individual Capacities. Each Lender Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the
Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as though such Lender Agent were not a Lender Agent hereunder. With respect to Advances pursuant to this Agreement, each Lender Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement in its
individual capacity as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not a Lender Agent, and the terms “Lender,” and “Lenders,” shall include the Lender Agent in its individual capacity. 

(g) Successor Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent may, upon five days’ notice to the Borrower and its related Lender, and such
Lender Agent will, upon the direction of its related Lender resign as the Lender Agent for such Lender. If any Lender Agent shall resign, then its related Lender during such five day period shall appoint a successor agent. If for any reason no
successor agent is appointed by such Lender during such five day period, then effective upon the termination of such five day period, and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations due to such Lender directly to such Lender,
and for all purposes shall deal directly with such Lender. After any retiring Lender Agent’s resignation hereunder as a Lender Agent, the provisions of Articles VIII and IX shall inure to its benefit with respect to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Lender Agent under this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE X. 

COLLATERAL AGENT 

SECTION 10.01 Designation of Collateral Agent. 
 (a) Initial Collateral Agent. Each of the Borrower, the Lender Agents and the Administrative Agent hereby designate and appoint the Collateral Agent to act as its agent for the purposes of
perfection of a security interest in the Collateral Portfolio and hereby authorizes 

  
 -121-









 
the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and on behalf of each of the Secured Parties and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly granted to the Collateral
Agent by this Agreement. The Collateral Agent hereby accepts such agency appointment to act as Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until its resignation or removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof. 

(b) Successor Collateral Agent. Upon the Collateral Agent’s receipt of a Collateral Agent Termination Notice from the
Administrative Agent of the designation of a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.05, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will terminate its activities as Collateral Agent hereunder. 

(c) Secured Party. The Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and the Lenders hereby appoint Wells Fargo Delaware, in its
capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, as their agent for the purposes of perfection of a security interest in the Collateral Portfolio. Wells Fargo Delaware, in its capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, hereby accepts such appointment and agrees
to perform the duties set forth in Section 10.02(b). 
 SECTION 10.02 Duties of Collateral Agent.

 (a) Appointment. The Borrower, the Lender Agents and the Administrative Agent each hereby appoints Wells Fargo
Delaware to act as Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations with respect thereto set forth herein.

Agent shall perform, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations: 
 (i) The
Collateral Agent shall calculate amounts to be remitted pursuant to Section 2.04 to the applicable parties and notify the Servicer and the Administrative Agent in the event of any discrepancy between the Collateral Agent’s
calculations and the Servicing Report (such dispute to be resolved in accordance with Section 2.05); 

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall make payments pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Report or as otherwise directed in
accordance with Sections 2.04 or 2.05 (the “Payment Duties”). 
 (iii) The
Collateral Agent shall provide to the Servicer a copy of all written notices and communications identified as being sent to it in connection with the Loan Assets and the other Collateral Portfolio held hereunder which it receives from the related
Obligor, participating bank and/or agent bank. In no instance shall the Collateral Agent be under any duty or obligation to take any action on behalf of the Servicer in respect of the exercise of any voting or consent rights, or similar actions,
unless it receives specific written instructions from the Servicer, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence of Event of Default, in which event the Collateral Agent shall vote, consent or take
such other action in accordance with such instructions. 

  
 -122-









 (c) (i) The Administrative Agent, each Lender Agent and each Secured Party
further authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative
Agent) as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests
granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the execution by the Collateral Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or
continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Loan Assets now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated
hereinabove. Nothing in this Section 10.02(c) shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Servicer of their respective obligations to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the
Collateral Portfolio, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral Portfolio in accordance with Section 5.01(t). 

(ii) The Administrative Agent may direct the Collateral Agent to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect
to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent 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 Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder at the request of the
Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable 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 requests the consent of the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Administrative Agent within 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. 
 (iii) Except as expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent
shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement (x) unless and until (and to the extent) expressly so directed by the Administrative
Agent or (y) prior to the Facility Maturity Date (and upon such occurrence, the Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (x)). The Collateral Agent 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 Agent, or the


  
 -123-









 
Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter hereunder, including an Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral
Agent has knowledge of such matter or written notice thereof is received by the Collateral Agent. 
 (d) If, in performing its
duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by it. If the
Collateral Agent does not receive such 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 received after such two Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to
rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent accountants in performing its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice. 

(e) Concurrently herewith, the Administrative Agent directs the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent is authorized to enter into the
Collection Account Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Collateral Agent’s rights, protections and immunities provided herein shall apply to the Collateral Agent for any actions taken or omitted to be taken under the Collection
Account Agreement in such capacity. 
 SECTION 10.03 Merger or Consolidation. 

Any Person (i) into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or
consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Collateral Agent substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of
assumption to perform every obligation of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be the successor to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.04 Collateral Agent Compensation. 
 As compensation for its Collateral Agent activities hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the Collateral Agent Fees and Collateral Agent Expenses from the Borrower as set forth in the Wells
Fargo Delaware Fee Letter, payable to the extent of funds available therefor pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04. The Collateral Agent’s entitlement to receive the Collateral Agent Fees shall cease on the earlier to occur of:
(i) its removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10.05 or (ii) the termination of this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.05 Collateral Agent Removal. 
 The Collateral Agent may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent by notice given in writing to the Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent Termination Notice”);
provided that, notwithstanding its receipt of a Collateral Agent Termination Notice, the Collateral Agent shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor 

  
 -124-









 
Collateral Agent has been appointed and has agreed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder; provided that the Collateral Agent shall continue to receive compensation of its fees and expenses
in accordance with Section 10.04 above while so serving as the Collateral Agent prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed. 
 SECTION 10.06 Limitation on Liability. 
 (a) The Collateral Agent 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 Agent 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 Agent 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 Agent 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. 

(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 Portfolio, 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 Portfolio. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal 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 no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the
Transaction Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this
Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other parties hereto that the Collateral Agent shall
not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility. 
 (f) The
Collateral Agent shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds in the performance of its duties hereunder. 

  
 -125-









 (g) It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Agent is not guaranteeing
performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral Portfolio. 
 (h) Subject in all cases to the last sentence of Section 2.05, in case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Agent may, prior to the occurrence of an Event
of Default or the Facility Maturity Date, request instructions from the Servicer and may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Facility Maturity 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 Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Agent 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 Agent 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 Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 
 (i) 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. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty to perform any of the duties of the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.07 Collateral Agent Resignation. 
 The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than 90 days written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly appoint a successor collateral agent or collateral agents by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by the Administrative Agent, one copy
of which shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent so resigning and one copy to the successor collateral agent or collateral agents, together with a copy to the Borrower, Servicer and Collateral Custodian. If no successor collateral agent shall
have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Agent within 45 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Collateral Agent may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent may not resign prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed.

SECTION 11.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or
any Lender Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any

obligations hereunder or under any Transaction Document or any interest herein or in any Transaction Document without the prior written consent of each Lender Agent and the Administrative Agent. 

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.04, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(c) Each Affected Party and each Indemnified Party shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.05 Term of This Agreement. This Agreement, including, without limitation, the Borrower’s representations and
covenants set forth in Articles IV and V and the Servicer’s representations, covenants and duties set forth in Articles IV, V and VI, shall remain in full force and effect until the Collection Date;

provisions of Article VIII, IX and Article XI and the provisions of Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 11.07, Section 11.08 and Section 11.09 shall be continuing and
shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

effect) since the Collection Date.

of this Agreement) hereby agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Conduit Lender, the Administrative Agent, or any Liquidity Banks any Bankruptcy Proceeding so long as any commercial paper

 SECTION 11.09 Recourse Against Certain Parties. 

(a) No recourse under or with respect to any obligation, covenant or agreement (including, without limitation, the payment of any fees or
any other obligations) of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party as contained in this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender
Agents or any Secured Party pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall be had against any administrator of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party or any incorporator, affiliate, stockholder, officer,
employee or director of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party or of any such administrator, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or
otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that the agreements of each party hereto contained in this Agreement and all of the other agreements, instruments and documents entered into by the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party pursuant hereto or in connection herewith are, in each case, solely the corporate obligations of such party (and nothing in this Section 11.09 shall be construed
to diminish in any way such corporate obligations of such party), and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to or be incurred by any administrator of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party or any
incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer, employee or director of the Lenders, the Lender Agents or the Administrative Agent or of any such administrator, as such, or any of them, under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or
agreements of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party contained in this Agreement or in any other such instruments, documents or agreements, or are implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability of
every such administrator of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party and each incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer, employee or director of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any
Secured Party or of any such administrator, or any of them, for breaches by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party of any such obligations, covenants or agreements, which liability may arise either at common
law or in equity, by statute or constitution, or otherwise, is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this Agreement. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision set forth herein, no claim may be made by the Borrower, the Transferor or the Servicer or any other Person against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the
Lender Agents or any Secured Party or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect to any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of
liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower, the Transferor and the Servicer each hereby waives, releases, and agrees not
to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected. 
 (c) No obligation
or liability to any Obligor under any of the Loan Assets is intended to be assumed by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or any Secured Party under or as a result of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

 (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Conduit Lender shall have any obligation to pay any amount
required to be paid by it hereunder in excess of any amount available to such Conduit Lender after paying or making provision for the 

  
 -132-









 
payment of its Commercial Paper Notes. All payment obligations of each Conduit Lender hereunder are contingent on the availability of funds in excess of the amounts necessary to pay its
Commercial Paper Notes; and each of the other parties hereto agrees that it will not have a claim under Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code if and to the extent that any such payment obligation owed to it by a Conduit Lender exceeds the
amount available to such Conduit Lender to pay such amount after paying or making provision for the payment of its Commercial Paper Notes. 
 (e) The provisions of this Section 11.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11.10 Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each

format (.pdf) or facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In the event that any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. This Agreement and any agreements or letters
(including fee letters) executed in connection herewith contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties
hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings other than any fee letter delivered by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents. 

SECTION 11.11 Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process. 

(a) Each party 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.

 SECTION 11.12 Characterization of Conveyances Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale
Agreement. 
 (a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Eligible Loan Assets by the
Transferor to the Borrower as contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement be, and be treated for all purposes (other than accounting purposes and subject to the tax characterization of the Borrower and the Advances described in
Section 5.01(aa) and Section 5.02(k) hereof) as, a sale by the Transferor of such Eligible Loan Assets. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Eligible Loan Assets by
the Transferor to the Borrower to secure a debt or other obligation of the Transferor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Eligible Loan Assets are held to continue to be property of the Transferor, then the
parties hereto agree that: (i) the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement under Applicable Law; (ii) as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the transfer of the Eligible Loan Assets provided
for in the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Transferor to the Borrower of a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest in and to the
Eligible Loan Assets and all amounts payable to the holders of the Eligible Loan Assets in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other
property, including, without limitation, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the possession by the Borrower (or the Collateral
Custodian on its behalf) of Loan Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to clause (iv), for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to
the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Borrower for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law.
The parties further agree that any assignment of the interest of the Borrower pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The
Borrower shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if the Purchase and Sale Agreement was deemed to create a security interest in the Eligible Loan
Assets, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. 

(b) It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Eligible Loan Assets conveyed by the Transferor to the Borrower pursuant
to the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall constitute assets owned by the Borrower and shall not be part of the Transferor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Transferor under any bankruptcy or similar
law. 
 (c) The Borrower agrees to treat, and shall cause the Transferor to treat, for all purposes (other than accounting
purposes and subject to the tax characterization of the Borrower and the Advances described in Section 5.01(aa) and Section 5.02(k) hereof), the transactions effected by the Purchase and Sale Agreement as sales of assets to
the Borrower. The Borrower and the Servicer each hereby agree to cause the Transferor to reflect in the Transferor’s financial 

  
 -134-









 
records and to include a note in the publicly filed annual and quarterly financial statements of Solar Capital indicating that: (i) assets related to transactions (including transactions
pursuant to the Transaction Documents) that do not meet SFAS 140 requirements for accounting sale treatment are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet of Solar Capital, as finance receivables pledged and non-recourse, secured borrowings and
(ii) those assets are owned by a special purpose entity that is consolidated in the financial statements of Solar Capital, and the creditors of that special purpose entity have received ownership and/or security interests in such assets and
such assets are not intended to be available to the creditors of sellers (or any affiliate of the sellers) of such assets to that special purpose entity. 
 SECTION 11.13 Confidentiality. 
 (a) Each of the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the Account Bank, the Transferor and the Collateral Custodian shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of the
Agreement and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the business of the Borrower and the Servicer hereto and their respective businesses obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring,
negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that each such party and its officers and employees may (i) disclose such information to its external accountants, investigators, auditors, attorneys or other agents,
including any valuation firm engaged by such party in connection with any due diligence or comparable activities with respect to the transactions and Loan Assets contemplated herein and the agents of such Persons (“Excepted
Persons”); provided that each Excepted Person shall, as a condition to any such disclosure, agree for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the
Account Bank, the Transferor and the Collateral Custodian that such information shall be used solely in connection with such Excepted Person’s evaluation of, or relationship with, the Borrower and its affiliates, (ii) disclose the
existence of the Agreement, but not the financial terms thereof, (iii) disclose such information as is required by Applicable Law and (iv) disclose the Agreement and such information in any suit, action, proceeding or investigation
(whether in law or in equity or pursuant to arbitration) involving any of the Transaction Documents for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability, or protecting or exercising any of its claims, rights, remedies, or interests under or
in connection with any of the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.13(a), the Servicer may, subject to Applicable Law and the terms of any Loan Agreements, make available copies of the
documents in the Servicing Files and such other documents it holds in its capacity as Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to any of its creditors. It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance
with this Section 11.13(a) include, without limitation, all fees and other pricing terms, and all Events of Default, Servicer Termination Events, and priority of payment provisions. 

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower and the Servicer each hereby consents to the disclosure of any
nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian by each other, (ii) by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the
Lender Agents, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral 

  
 -135-









 
Custodian to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them provided such Person agrees to hold such information confidential, or (iii) by the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian to any commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to any Lender or any Person providing financing to,
or holding equity interests in, any Conduit Lender, as applicable, and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, provided each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such
information. In addition, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian may disclose any such nonpublic information as required pursuant to any law, rule, regulation,
direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law). 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known; (ii) disclosure
of any and all information (a) if required to do so by any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, (b) to any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any aspects of the Lenders’,
the Lender Agents’, the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s, the Account Bank’s or the Collateral Custodian’s business or that of their affiliates, (c) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand or
similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or arbitration to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Lender Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Account Bank or an officer, director,
employer, shareholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing is a party, (d) in any preliminary or final offering circular, registration statement or contract or other document approved in advance by the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor
or (e) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian having a need to know the same, provided that the disclosing party advises such recipient of the
confidential nature of the information being disclosed; or (iii) any other disclosure authorized by the Borrower, Servicer or the Transferor. 
 SECTION 11.14 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 11.14 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. 

  
 -136-









 SECTION 11.15 Waiver of Set Off. 

Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any right of setoff it may have or to which it may be entitled under this Agreement from time to
time against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents or their respective assets. 
 SECTION 11.16
Headings and Exhibits. 
 The headings herein are for purposes of references only and shall not otherwise affect the
meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof. The schedules and exhibits attached hereto and referred to herein shall constitute a part of this Agreement and are incorporated into this Agreement for all purposes. 

SECTION 11.17 Ratable Payments. 
 If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of Advances owing to it
(other than pursuant to Breakage Fees, Section 2.10 or Section 2.11) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other
Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided that, if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s
ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing
Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. 
 SECTION 11.18 Failure of Borrower or Servicer to Perform Certain
Obligations. 
 If the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, fails to perform any of its agreements or obligations under
Section 5.01(t), Section 5.02(r) or Section 5.03(e), the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the expenses of the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Borrower or the Servicer (on behalf of the Borrower), as applicable, upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor.

the Secured Parties in the Collateral Portfolio and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral Portfolio as a financing statement in such offices as the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral Portfolio. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable.

reconveyances, releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the Pledge and other Liens securing the Obligations, all at the expense of the Borrower.

Each of the Borrower, the Lender Agents and the Administrative Agent hereby designate and appoint the Collateral Custodian to act as its agent and hereby authorizes the Collateral Custodian to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such
powers and perform such duties as are expressly granted to the Collateral Custodian by this Agreement. The Collateral Custodian hereby accepts such agency appointment to act as Collateral Custodian pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until its

Custodian agrees that it will terminate its activities as Collateral Custodian hereunder. 
 SECTION 12.02 Duties of
Collateral Custodian. 
 (a) Appointment. The Borrower, the Lender Agents and the Administrative Agent each hereby
appoints Wells Fargo to act as Collateral Custodian, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Custodian hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations with respect thereto set forth herein.

Secured Parties. Within five Business Days of its receipt of any Required Loan Documents, the related Loan Asset Schedule and a hard copy of the Loan Asset Checklist, the Collateral Custodian shall review the Required Loan Documents to confirm that
(A) such Required Loan Documents have been executed (either an original or a copy, as indicated on the Loan Asset Checklist) and have no mutilated pages, (B) filed stamped copies of the UCC and other filings (required by the Required Loan

Asset Schedule (such items (A) through (D) collectively, the “Review Criteria”). In order to facilitate the foregoing review by the Collateral Custodian, in connection with each delivery of Required Loan Documents
hereunder to the Collateral Custodian, the Servicer shall provide to the Collateral Custodian a hard copy (which may be preceded by an electronic copy, as applicable) of the related Loan Asset Checklist which contains the Loan Asset information with
respect to the Required Loan Documents being delivered, identification number and the name of the Obligor with respect to such Loan Asset. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Custodian’s obligation to review the
Required Loan Documents shall be limited to reviewing such Required Loan Documents based on the information provided on the Loan Asset Checklist. If, at the conclusion of such review, the Collateral Custodian shall determine that (i) the
original balance of the Loan Asset with respect to which it has received Required Loan Documents is less than as set forth on the Loan Asset Schedule, the Collateral Custodian shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Servicer of such
discrepancy within one Business Day, or (ii) any Review Criteria is not satisfied, the Collateral Custodian shall within one Business Day notify the Servicer of such determination and provide the Servicer with a list of the non-complying Loan
Assets and the applicable Review Criteria that they fail to satisfy. The Servicer shall have five Business Days after notice or knowledge thereof to correct any non-compliance with any Review Criteria. In addition, if requested in writing (in the
form of Exhibit N) by the Servicer and approved by the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days of the Collateral Custodian’s delivery of such report, the Collateral Custodian shall return any Loan Asset which fails to satisfy a
Review Criteria to the Borrower. Other than the foregoing, the Collateral Custodian shall not have any responsibility for reviewing any Required Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Collateral Custodian
shall have no duty or obligation with respect to any Loan Asset checklist delivered to it in electronic form. 

(ii) In taking and retaining custody of the Required Loan Documents, the Collateral Custodian shall be deemed to be acting
as the agent of the Secured Parties; provided that the Collateral Custodian makes no representations as to the existence, perfection or priority of any Lien on the Required Loan Documents or the instruments therein; and provided,
further, that, the Collateral Custodian’s duties shall be limited to those expressly contemplated herein. 
 (iii) All Required Loan Documents shall be kept in fire resistant vaults, rooms or cabinets at the locations specified on the address of the Collateral Custodian in Section 11.02, or at such
other office as shall be specified to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer by the Collateral Custodian in a written notice delivered at least 30 days prior to such change. All Required Loan Documents shall be placed together with an appropriate
identifying label and maintained in such a manner so as to permit retrieval and access. The Collateral Custodian shall segregate the Required Loan Documents on its 

  
 -139-









 
inventory system and will not commingle the physical Required Loan Documents with any other files of the Collateral Custodian other than those, if any, relating to Solar Capital and its
Affiliates and subsidiaries; provided, however, the Collateral Custodian shall segregate any commingled files upon written request of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 

(iv) On the 12th calendar day of every month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), the Collateral
Custodian shall provide a written report to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer (in a form mutually agreeable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian) identifying each Loan Asset for which it holds Required Loan Documents and
the applicable Review Criteria that any Loan Asset fails to satisfy. 
 (v) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Custodian shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or
responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Custodian. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other
parties hereto that the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility. 

(c) (i) The Collateral Custodian agrees to cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and deliver
any Required Loan Documents to the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent (pursuant to a written request in the form of Exhibit N), as applicable, as requested in order to take any action that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or
desirable in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including any rights arising with
respect to Article VII. In the event the Collateral Custodian receives instructions from the Collateral Agent, the Servicer or the Borrower which conflict with any instructions received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian
shall rely on and follow the instructions given by the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) 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 Party 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 

  
 -140-









 
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 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. 
 (iii) 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 an Event of Default, unless a
Responsible Officer of the Collateral Custodian has knowledge of such matter or written notice thereof is received by the Collateral Custodian. 
 SECTION 12.03 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 12.04 Collateral Custodian
Compensation. 
 As compensation for its Collateral Custodian activities hereunder, the Collateral Custodian shall be
entitled to the Collateral Custodian Fees from the Borrower as set forth in the Wells Fargo Fee Letter, payable pursuant to the extent of funds available therefor pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04. The Collateral
Custodian’s entitlement to receive the Collateral Custodian Fees shall cease on the earlier to occur of: (i) its removal as Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 12.05, (ii) its resignation as Collateral Custodian
pursuant to Section 12.07 of this Agreement or (iii) the termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 12.05
Collateral Custodian Removal. 
 The Collateral Custodian may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative
Agent by notice given in writing to the Collateral Custodian (the “Collateral Custodian Termination Notice”); provided that, notwithstanding its receipt of a Collateral Custodian Termination Notice, the Collateral Custodian
shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor Collateral Custodian has been appointed and has agreed to act as Collateral Custodian hereunder. 
 SECTION 12.06 Limitation 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. 

  
 -141-









 (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. 

(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 Portfolio, 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 Portfolio. The Collateral Custodian shall not be obligated to take any legal 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.

 (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 Portfolio. 
 (h) Subject in all
cases to the last sentence of Section 12.02(c)(i), in case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Custodian may, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Facility Maturity Date, request
instructions from the Servicer and may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Facility Maturity 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 Servicer 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. 

  
 -142-









 SECTION 12.07 Collateral Custodian Resignation. 

Collateral Custodian may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder, not earlier than 90 days after delivery to
the Administrative Agent of written notice of such resignation specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect. Upon the effective date of such resignation, or if the Administrative Agent gives Collateral Custodian written notice of an
earlier termination hereof, Collateral Custodian shall (i) be reimbursed for any costs and expenses Collateral Custodian shall incur in connection with the termination of its duties under this Agreement and (ii) deliver all of the Required
Loan Documents in the possession of Collateral Custodian to the Administrative Agent or to such Person as the Administrative Agent may designate to Collateral Custodian in writing upon the receipt of a request in the form of Exhibit N;
provided that the Borrower shall consent to any successor Collateral Custodian appointed by the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Custodian may
not resign prior to a successor Collateral Custodian being appointed. 
 SECTION 12.08 Release of Documents.

 (a) Release for Servicing. From time to time and as appropriate for the enforcement or servicing of any of the
Collateral Portfolio, the Collateral Custodian is hereby authorized (unless and until such authorization is revoked by the Administrative Agent), upon written receipt from the Servicer of a request for release of documents and receipt in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit N, to release to the Servicer within two Business Days of receipt of such request, the related Required Loan Documents or the documents set forth in such request and receipt to the Servicer. All documents so released
to the Servicer shall be held by the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer shall return to the Collateral Custodian the Required Loan
Documents or other such documents (i) promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, or (ii) when the Servicer’s need therefor in connection with such foreclosure or servicing no longer exists, unless the Loan Asset shall be
liquidated, in which case, the Servicer shall deliver an additional request for release of documents to the Collateral Custodian and receipt certifying such liquidation from the Servicer to the Collateral Agent, all in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit N. 
 (b) Limitation on Release. The foregoing provision with respect to the release to the Servicer of
the Required Loan Documents and documents by the Collateral Custodian upon request by the Servicer shall be operative only to the extent that the Administrative Agent has consented to such release. Promptly after delivery to the Collateral Custodian
of any request for release of documents, the Servicer shall provide notice of the same to the Administrative Agent. Any additional Required Loan Documents or documents requested to be released by the Servicer may be released only upon written
authorization of the Administrative Agent. The limitations of this paragraph shall not apply to the release of Required Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to the immediately succeeding subsection. 

(c) Release for Payment. Upon receipt by the Collateral Custodian of the Servicer’s request for release of documents and
receipt in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit N (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment or repurchase have been credited to the Collection Account as provided in
this Agreement), the Collateral Custodian shall promptly release the related Required Loan Documents to the Servicer. 

  
 -143-









 SECTION 12.09 Return of Required Loan Documents. 

The Borrower may, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), require that
the Collateral Custodian return each Required Loan Document (a) delivered to the Collateral Custodian in error or (b) released from the Lien of the Collateral Agent hereunder pursuant to Section 2.16, in each case by submitting
to the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent a written request in the form of Exhibit N hereto (signed by both the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) specifying the Collateral Portfolio to be so returned and reciting that the
conditions to such release have been met (and specifying the Section or Sections of this Agreement being relied upon for such release). The Collateral Custodian shall upon its receipt of each such request for return executed by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent promptly, but in any event within five Business Days, return the Required Loan Documents so requested to the Borrower. 
 SECTION 12.10 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Collateral Portfolio; Audits of Servicer. 
 The Collateral Custodian shall provide to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent access to the Required Loan Documents and all other documentation regarding the Collateral Portfolio including in
such cases where the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the Secured Parties, 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 request, (ii) during normal business hours and (iii) subject to the Servicer’s and the Collateral Custodian’s normal security and
confidentiality procedures. Prior to the Closing Date and periodically thereafter at the discretion of the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent may review the Servicer’s collection and
administration of the Collateral Portfolio in order to assess compliance by the Servicer with the Servicing Standard, as well as with this Agreement and may conduct an audit of the Collateral Portfolio, and Required Loan Documents in conjunction
with such a review. Such review shall be (subject to Section 5.03(d)(ii)) reasonable in scope and shall be completed in a reasonable period of time. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.10, from time
to time (and, in any case, a minimum of three times during each fiscal year of the Servicer) upon reasonable notice to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall permit independent public accountants or other auditors appointed by the
Servicer to conduct, at the expense of the Servicer (on behalf of the Borrower), a review of the Required Loan Documents and all other documentation regarding the Collateral Portfolio. 

SECTION 12.11 Bailment. 
 The Collateral Custodian agrees that, with respect to any Required Loan Documents at any time or times in its possession or held in its name, the Collateral Custodian shall be the agent and bailee 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 Portfolio and for the purpose of ensuring that such security
interest is entitled to first priority status under the UCC.
