(o)              
the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect
to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to any alternative or successor rate to the “LIBOR Rate”,
or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative,
successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to this Agreement, will be similar to, or produce
the same value or economic equivalence of, LIBOR Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered
rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.

THE ADVANCES


 


Section 2.1.        
The Advances.


 


(a)              
Loan Advances. During the Revolving Period, the Borrower may, at its option, request the Revolving Lenders to make
advances of funds (each, a “Loan Advance”) by delivering a Funding Notice with respect to such Loan Advance
to the Administrative Agent, which shall provide notification to the Revolving Lenders with respect thereto, in an aggregate amount
up to the Availability as of the proposed Funding Date of the Loan Advance; provided, however, that no Revolving
Lender shall be obligated to make any Loan Advance on or after the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier to occur
of the applicable Revolving Period End Date or the Termination Date. Following the receipt of a Funding Notice during the Revolving
Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Revolving Lenders shall fund such Loan Advance.


 


(b)              
Swingline Advances. During the Revolving Period, the Borrower may, at its option, request the Swingline Lender make
Swingline Advances to the Borrower by delivering a Funding Notice with respect to such requested Swingline Advance to the Administrative
Agent, which shall forward such Funding Notice to the Swingline Lender and provide notification to the Revolving Lenders with respect
thereto. Following the receipt of a Funding Notice during the Revolving Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth, the Swingline Lender shall make the requested Swingline Advances to the Borrower; provided that the Swingline
Lender shall not fund any Swingline Advance if, after giving effect to the amount of the Swingline Advance requested, (i) in the
sole discretion of the Swingline Lender, a Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, (ii) the Advances Outstanding
would exceed the Borrowing Base or (iii) the aggregate amount of Advances and Swingline Advances made by the Swingline Lender would
exceed the Commitment of the Swingline Lender.


 


(c)              
The Borrower may, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, (x) add additional Persons as Revolving Lenders
or (y) increase the Commitment of any Revolving Lender and, in each case increase the aggregate Commitments hereunder; provided
that, (1) the Commitment of any Lender may only be increased with the prior written consent of such Lender and the Administrative
Agent and (2) the Facility Amount shall not exceed $800,000,000. Each additional Revolving Lender shall become a party hereto by
executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a Joinder Supplement and a representation letter in the form
of Exhibit I. Upon such increase, Annex A hereto shall be deemed to be revised to reflect such increase in such Lender’s
Commitment and those terms set forth on Annex C shall be revised as set forth therein in accordance with such increase.
For the avoidance of doubt, on the Fourth Amendment Closing Date the Facility Amount shall be $745,000,000 and on any subsequent
date of determination, the terms set forth on Annex C shall vary in accordance with the Facility Amount then in effect (including,
prior to the earlier to occur of the end of the Revolving Period or the Termination Date, in connection with a permanent reduction
of the Facility Amount). The Borrower, or the Collateral Manager on its behalf, may at any time request Annex C to be revised
so long as it has received prior written consent from the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders.


 






    46


     


    

 


(d)              
Advances to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Advances shall be made by the Revolving Lenders as provided in
Section 2.15.


 


Section 2.2.        
Procedures for Advances by the Lenders.


 


(a)              
Subject to the limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may request an Advance from the Lenders by delivering to the Administrative
Agent at certain times the information and documents set forth in this Section  2.2. Upon receipt of such information
and documents, the Administrative Agent will provide notification to the Revolving Lenders and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable,
with respect thereto.


 


(b)              
With respect to (i) all Loan Advances, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to the proposed Funding Date
and (ii) all Swingline Advances, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the proposed Funding Date, the Borrower (or the Collateral Manager
on its behalf) shall deliver:


 


(i)             
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver to each Revolving Lender or, in the case of any Swingline Advance,
the Swingline Lender) and the Collateral Custodian 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;


 


(ii)             
to the Administrative Agent a description of the Obligor and the Loan(s) to be funded by the proposed Advance;


 


(iii)            
to the Administrative Agent a wire disbursement and authorization form, to the extent not previously delivered;


 


(iv)             to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian a duly completed Funding Notice which shall (a) specify the desired
amount of such Advance, which amount must be at least equal to $500,000 (or, in the case of any Advance to be applied to fund any
draw under a Delayed Draw Loan or Revolving Loan, such lesser amount as may be required to fund such draw), to be allocated to
each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, (b) specify the proposed Funding Date of such Advance, (c) specify the Loan(s)
to be financed on such Funding Date (including the appropriate file number, Obligor, original loan balance, OLB, Assigned Value
and Purchase Price for each Loan) and, with respect to any Delayed Draw Loan or Revolving Loan, the amount to be deposited in the
Unfunded Exposure Account in connection with the acquisition of such Loan(s) pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and (d) include
a representation that all conditions precedent for an Advance described in Article III hereof have been met. Each Funding
Notice shall be irrevocable. If any Funding Notice is received by the Administrative Agent (x) after 3:00 p.m. on the Business
Day prior to the Business Day for which such Advance (other than a Swingline Advance) is requested, (y) after 3:00 p.m. on the
Business Day on which a Swingline Advance is requested or (z) on a day that is not a Business Day, such Funding Notice shall be
deemed to be received by the Administrative Agent at 9:00 a.m. on the next Business Day.


 






    47


     


    

 


(c)              
On the proposed Funding Date, subject to the limitations set forth in Section  2.1(a) or (b), as applicable,
and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III:


 


(i)              
in the case of a Loan Advance, (x) each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds, by no
later than 12:00 noon, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the least of (A) the amount requested by the Borrower
for such Advance, (B) the aggregate unused Commitments then in effect and (C) the maximum amount that, after taking into account
the proposed use of the proceeds of such Advance, could be advanced to the Borrower hereunder without causing the Advances Outstanding
to exceed the Borrowing Base and (y) the Administrative Agent shall make all funds received from the Lenders under clause (x) available
to the Borrower in same day funds by wire transfer to the account designated by the Borrower in the Funding Notice given pursuant
to this Section 2.2; or


 


(ii)             
in the case of a Swingline Advance, the Swingline Lender shall make available to the Borrower in same day funds, by wire
transfer to the account designated by Borrower in the Funding Notice given pursuant to this Section 2.2, an amount
equal to the least of (i) the amount requested by the Borrower for such Swingline Advance, (ii) the positive difference
between (A) the Swingline Commitment then in effect and (B) the aggregate outstanding Swingline Advances as of such date and (iii)
the maximum amount that, after taking into account the proposed use of the proceeds of such Swingline Advance, could be advanced
to the Borrower hereunder without causing the Advances Outstanding to exceed the Borrowing Base.


 


(d)              
On each Funding Date, the obligation of each Revolving Lender to remit its Pro Rata Share of any such Loan Advance shall
be several from that of each other Revolving Lender and the failure of any Revolving Lender to so make such amount available to
the Borrower shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder.


 


(e)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of the earlier of (i) an Event of Default or (ii) the
Revolving Period End Date with respect to all the Commitments, if the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is less
than the Aggregate Unfunded Exposure Amount, the Borrower shall request an Advance in the amount of such shortfall (the “Exposure
Amount Shortfall”). Following receipt of a Funding Notice (including a duly completed Borrowing Base Certificate updated
to the date such Advance is requested and giving pro forma effect to the Advance requested), the Revolving Lenders shall
fund such Exposure Amount Shortfall in accordance with Section 2.2(b) as if the Revolving Period were still in effect and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the Borrower’s failure to satisfy any of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2), except that no Lender shall make any Advance to the extent that, after
giving effect to such Advance, the Advances Outstanding would exceed the Borrowing Base.


 






    48


     


    

 



 


Section 2.3.        Reduction
of the Facility Amount; Optional Repayments.


 


(a)         The
Borrower shall be entitled at its option to terminate the Facility Amount in whole or reduce in part the portion of the Facility
Amount that exceeds the sum of the Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest and Breakage Costs; provided that (i) the Borrower
shall provide a Repayment Notice to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to such termination or reduction,
(ii) any partial reduction of the Facility Amount shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000
in excess thereof and (iii) in the case of such termination or reduction on or prior to the first anniversary of the Fourth Amendment
Closing Date (other than to the extent set forth in Section 2.3(d)), the Borrower shall pay to each Lender the applicable
Commitment Reduction Fee in accordance with Section 2.7 or Section 2.8, as applicable. Any request for a reduction
or termination pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) shall be irrevocable. The Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by
an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share (prior to giving effect to any reduction of Commitments hereunder) of the aggregate amount
of any reduction under this Section 2.3(a).


 


(b)         The
Borrower shall be entitled at its option, at any time, to reduce Advances Outstanding; provided that (i) the Borrower shall
provide a Repayment Notice to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to such reduction and (ii) any reduction
of Advances Outstanding (other than with respect to repayments of Advances Outstanding made by the Borrower to reduce Advances
Outstanding such that the Required Advance Reduction Amount is equal to zero) shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000 and in
integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. In connection with any such reduction of Advances Outstanding, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly deliver to each Lender, (1) instructions to reduce such Advances
Outstanding and (2) funds sufficient to repay such Advances Outstanding together with all accrued Interest and any Breakage Costs;
provided that, the Advances Outstanding will not be reduced unless sufficient funds have been remitted to pay the related
accrued Interest and Breakage Costs, if any, in full. The Administrative Agent shall apply amounts received from the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) to (x) unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred, if directed by the Borrower,
the pro rata reduction of the Advances Outstanding of the Non-Extending Lenders or (y) otherwise, the pro rata reduction
of the Advances Outstanding, to the payment of accrued Interest on the amount of the Advances Outstanding to be repaid and to
the payment of any Breakage Costs. Any Advance so repaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed during
the Revolving Period. Any Repayment Notice relating to any repayment pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) shall be irrevocable.


 


(c)         At
any time after the nine-month anniversary of the A&R Effective Date and prior to the end of the Revolving Period, the Borrower
may deliver to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver the same to the Lenders) a notice requesting that the Revolving
Period be extended and specifying the requested length of such extension. Each Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion
to approve (each such Lender, an “Extending Lender”) or deny (each such Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”)
any such extension request and shall notify the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of its determination. Upon
written notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (with a copy to each Extending Lender), the Revolving Period shall
be extended to such date as is approved by each Extending Lender for all purposes hereof (and clause (a) of the definition of
 “Revolving Period End Date” shall be deemed amended). The Extending Lenders (on a pro rata basis) shall have the right
to purchase the Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders and any Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders not so purchased (or
assigned pursuant to Section 12.16) shall be terminated on the Revolving Period End Date immediately prior to giving effect
to such extension. Non-Extending Lenders will receive payments on their Advances Outstanding in accordance with the terms hereof
until their Advances Outstanding are reduced to zero, at which point they will cease to be Lenders hereunder.


 






    49


     


    

 


(d)         Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Section 2.3(a), no Commitment Reduction Fee shall be payable by the Borrower in the event
that (A) such termination or permanent reduction occurs no sooner than the date which is one year following the Fourth Amendment
Closing Date, (B) such termination or permanent reduction occurs as a result of a refinancing of this credit facility in connection
with (x) any transaction for which the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates holds at least 25.0% of the aggregate commitments
of such refinancing or (y) a distributed capital markets offering or (C) such permanent reduction results solely in the amortization
of the Facility Amount and any Loans released from the Lien of the Administrative Agent as a result of such reduction are not
used to collateralize a replacement financing facility during the 90-day period following the date of the release of such Lien.


 


Section 2.4.        Determination
of Interest and Non-Usage Fee.


 


The Administrative
Agent shall determine the Interest (including unpaid Interest related thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment Date)
and the Non-Usage Fee (including any previously accrued and unpaid Non-Usage Fee) to be paid by the Borrower on each Payment Date
for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Collateral Manager thereof on the third Business Day prior to such Payment
Date.


 


Section 2.5.        Promissory
Notes.


 


(a)         The
Borrower shall, upon the request of a Lender, execute and deliver a Promissory Note evidencing the Advances of such Lender. Each
such Promissory Note shall be payable to such Lender in a face amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment as of the date of
delivery for such Promissory Note.


 


(b)         If
any Lender elects not to receive a Promissory Note, all references herein and the other Transaction Documents to such Lender’s
Promissory Note shall be deemed to mean the Advances outstanding with respect to such Lender. The parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that the provisions herein and the other Transaction Documents related to the Lenders hereunder shall apply to each Lender
regardless of whether such Lender has received a Promissory Note.


 


Section 2.6.        Principal Repayments.


 


(a)         Unless
sooner prepaid pursuant to the terms hereof, the Advances Outstanding shall be repaid in full on the Termination Date (or, with
respect to any Non-Extending Lender, the earlier to occur of (x) the two-year anniversary of the termination of its Commitment
and (y) the Termination Date) or on such later date as is agreed to in writing by the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Administrative
Agent and each Lender (or, with respect to any Non-Extending Lender, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Non-Extending
Lender).


 






    50


     


    

 


(b)           At
the Borrower’s option in its sole discretion, it may take any of the following actions at any time to reduce the Required
Advance Reduction Amount:

the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account exceeds the Aggregate Unfunded Exposure Amount, by the Borrower (or the
Collateral Manager on the Borrower’s behalf) to make a deposit into the Principal Collection Account to the extent of such
excess.


 






    54


     


    

 


(ii)         After the end of the Revolving Period, any draw request made by an Obligor under a Delayed Draw Loan or Revolving Loan,
along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, shall be forwarded by the Collateral Manager (on the Borrower’s
behalf) to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) along with an instruction to the Collateral Custodian
to withdraw the applicable amount from the Unfunded Exposure Account. Upon receipt of, and in accordance with, such instruction,
the Collateral Custodian shall fund such draw request directly from the Unfunded Exposure Account.


 


(f)           For all U.S. federal tax reporting purposes, all income earned on the funds invested and allocable to the Accounts is legally
owned by the Borrower (and beneficially owned by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager). The Borrower is required to provide to
the Collateral Custodian (i) an IRS Form W-9 no later than the date hereof, and (ii) any additional IRS forms (or updated versions
of any previously submitted IRS forms) or other documentation upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Custodian as may be
necessary (a) to reduce or eliminate the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes and (b) to permit the Collateral Custodian to fulfill
its tax reporting obligations under applicable law with respect to the Accounts or any amounts paid to the Borrower. The Borrower
is further required to report to the Collateral Custodian comparable information upon any change in the legal or beneficial ownership
of the income allocable to the Accounts. The Collateral Custodian shall have no liability to the Borrower or any other person in
connection with any tax withholding amounts paid, or retained for payment, to a governmental authority from the Accounts arising
from the Borrower’s failure to timely provide an accurate, correct and complete IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation
contemplated under this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt, no funds shall be invested with respect to such Accounts absent
the Collateral Custodian having first received (x) instructions with respect to the investment of such funds, and (y) the forms
and other documentation required by this paragraph.


 


Section
2.10.       Payments,
Computations, Etc.


 


(a)          Unless
otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager hereunder shall
be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day when due in lawful money of the United
States in immediately available funds and any amount not received before such time shall be deemed received on the next Business
Day. The Borrower or the Collateral Manager, as applicable, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Secured Parties
interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder at 5.25% per annum above the Prime Rate, payable on demand;
provided that, such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Such interest
shall be for the account of the applicable Secured Party. All computations of interest and other fees hereunder shall be made
on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days (other than calculations with respect to the Base Rate and the Non-Usage Fee, which
shall each be based on a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days elapsed.


 






    55


     


    

 


(b)        Whenever
any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of Interest or any fee
payable hereunder, as the case may be. For avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Available Funds are insufficient on any Payment
Date to satisfy the full amount of any Increased Costs then due pursuant to Section 2.12, such unpaid amounts shall remain
due and owing and shall accrue interest as provided in Section  2.10(a) until repaid in full.


 


(c)         If
any Advance requested by the Borrower is not effectuated as a result of the Borrower’s actions or failure to fulfill any
condition under Section  3.2, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall indemnify the
applicable Lender against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by the applicable Lender, including, without limitation,
any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the applicable
Lender to fund or maintain such Advance, but excluding the Applicable Spread.


 


Section 2.11.      Fees.


 


(a)         The
Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid in accordance with Sections 2.7 and 2.8, the applicable Non-Usage Fee.


 


(b)         The
Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid in accordance with Sections 2.7 and 2.8, in the manner specified in each
Fee Letter, the applicable portion of each Structuring Fee.


 


(c)         The
Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to receive the Collateral Custodian Fee in accordance with Sections 2.7 and 2.8.


 


(d)         The
Borrower shall pay to Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP as counsel to the Administrative Agent on the A&R Effective Date,
its reasonable estimated fees and out-of-pocket expenses through the A&R Effective Date, and shall pay all additional reasonable
fees and out-of-pocket expenses of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP required to be paid by the Borrower hereunder and on
the immediately following Payment Date after its receipt of an invoice therefor in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7
or 2.8, as applicable.


 


Section 2.12.      Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality.


 


(a)         If
either (i) the introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements) in or in the interpretation of any Applicable Law or (ii) the compliance by an Affected Party with any guideline
or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case, adopted,
made or implemented after the A&R Effective Date, shall (a) subject any Affected Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified
Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on
its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities
or capital attributable thereto, (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation,
any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve requirement,
if any, included in the determination of Interest), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the amount of, or credit extended by, any Affected Party or (c) impose any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting the
ownership interest in the Collateral conveyed to the Lenders hereunder or any Affected Party’s rights hereunder or under
any other Transaction Document, the result of which is to increase the cost to any Affected Party or to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document, then on the later
of the next Payment Date and 30 days after receipt by the Borrower of demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied
by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.


 






    56


     


    

 


(b)         If
either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or
request or (ii) compliance by any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central
bank or other Governmental Authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance
by an Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, in each case, adopted, made or implemented after
the A&R Effective Date, 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 arising in connection herewith 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, on the later
of the next Payment Date and 30 days after receipt by the Borrower of demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied
by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such reduction; provided that notwithstanding anything in
this Section 2.12(b) to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests,
rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives
promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar
authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed
to be a “change in law” for the purposes of clause (i) above, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.


 


(c)          If
as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in clause (a) or (b) of this Section  2.12 that
occurs after the A&R Effective Date, 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 on the later of the next Payment Date and 30 days after receipt by the Borrower
of 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  2.12, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and
attribution methods. Any Affected Party making a claim under this Section  2.12 shall submit to the Collateral Manager
a written description as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the calculation thereof, which written description
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 






    57


     


    

 


(e)         If
a Eurodollar Disruption Event as described in clause (a) of the definition of “Eurodollar Disruption Event” with respect
to any Lender occurred, such Lender shall in turn so notify the Borrower, whereupon all Advances Outstanding of the affected Lender
in respect of which Interest accrues at the LIBOR Rate shall immediately be converted into Advances Outstanding in respect of
which Interest accrues at the Base Rate in accordance with the definition of “Interest Rate”.


 


(f)          Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section  2.12 shall
not constitute a waiver of such Affected Party’s right to demand or receive such compensation. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Section 2.12, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Affected Party pursuant to this Section
2.12 for any amounts incurred more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of
such Affected Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to
such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six (6) month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive
effect.


 


(g)         Each
Lender agrees that it will take such commercially reasonable actions as the Borrower may reasonably request that will avoid the
need to pay, or reduce the amount of, any increased amounts referred to in this Section  2.12 or Section 2.13;
provided that, no Lender shall be obligated to take any actions that would, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender, be
disadvantageous to such Lender. In no event will Borrower be responsible for increased amounts referred to in this Section 
2.12 which relates to any other entities to which Lenders provide financing. In no event will Borrower be responsible for
any increased amounts or reduced return referred to in this Section 2.12 resulting from any Lender subject to a Bail-In
Action being deemed a Defaulting Lender or such Lender not receiving interest on Advances that it does not fund as a result of
a Bail-In Action.


 


Section 2.13.      Taxes.


 


(a)         Defined
Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.13, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.


 


(b)         Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction
Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable
law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any
Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction
or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so
that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section 2.13) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had
no such deduction or withholding been made.


 






    58


     


    

 


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


 


(d)         Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, on the later of the next Payment Date
and 30 days after receipt by the Borrower of demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.13) payable or paid by such Recipient
or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(e)         Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for
(i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the
Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes
attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.16(b) relating to the maintenance
of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by
the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such
Lender under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against
any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).


 


(f)          Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this
Section 2.13, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued
by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


 


(g)         Status
of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments
made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent, at the
time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed
and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably
requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed
by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent as will enable
the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the
completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.13(g)(ii)(1),
(ii)(2) and (ii)(4) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution
or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or
commercial position of such Lender.


 






    59


     


    

 


(ii)         Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing:


 


(1)          any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request
of the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender
is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


 


(2)          any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the
Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:


 


i.           in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable)
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of
such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business
profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;


 


ii.          executed
copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


iii.          in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x)
a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
(as applicable); or


 






    60


     


    

 


iv.         to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS
Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2
or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided
that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the
portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit
L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;


 


(3)         any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the
Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation
as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative Agent to determine
the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 


(4)          if
a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian
or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian or the Administrative
Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (4), “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


Each Lender agrees
that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update
such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian and the Administrative Agent in writing of
its legal inability to do so.


 






    61


     


    

 


(h)        Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund
of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.13 (including by the payment of additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only
to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of
all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the
relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party,
shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund
to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified
party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the
indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject
to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require
any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential)
to the indemnifying party or any other Person.


 


(i)          Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement
of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments
and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.


 


Section 2.14.      Discretionary Sales.


 


(a)         Discretionary
Sales. The Borrower shall be permitted to sell Loans (each, a “Discretionary Sale”) subject to the following
conditions:


 


(i)          no
Collateral Manager Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, immediately after giving effect to such Discretionary
Sale, no Collateral Manager Default, Default or Event of Default shall have occurred;


 


(ii)         immediately after giving effect to such Discretionary Sale, the Required Advance Reduction Amount shall be (x) zero or (y)
subject to the prior consent of the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion), an amount less than the Required Advance Reduction
Amount immediately prior to giving effect to such Discretionary Sale;


 


(iii)        the Borrower shall have delivered a Borrowing Base Certificate to the Administrative Agent;


 


(iv)        such
Discretionary Sale shall be made by the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, to an unaffiliated third party purchaser
in a transaction (i) reflecting arms-length market terms and (ii) in which the Borrower makes no representations, warranties or
covenants and provides no indemnification for the benefit of any other party to the Discretionary Sale (other than that the Borrower
has good title thereto, free and clear of all Liens and has the right to sell the related Loan), provided that, the Borrower
may make a Discretionary Sale to an Affiliate of the Borrower with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion;


 






    62


     


    

 


(v)         on the related Discretionary Sale Date, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Custodian, as applicable, shall have
received, as applicable, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of (a) an amount sufficient to reduce the Advances
Outstanding such that, after giving effect to the transfer of the Loans that are the subject of such Discretionary Sale, the Required
Advance Reduction Amount will be equal to zero plus (b) an amount equal to all unpaid Interest then due and owing to the
extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be attributable to that portion of the Advances Outstanding to be repaid
in connection with the Discretionary Sale plus (c) an aggregate amount equal to the sum of all other Obligations due and
owing to the Administrative Agent, each applicable Lender, the Affected Parties and the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, under
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (or such lesser amount as consented to by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to clause (ii) above);


 


(vi)        on the related Discretionary Sale Date, the proceeds (net of (x) amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14(b)(v) and
(y) normal transactional expenses) from such Discretionary Sale shall be sent directly to the Collection Account; and


 


(vii)       the
aggregate OLB of all Loans which are sold or intended to be sold by the Borrower in connection with a Discretionary Sale during
any 12-month rolling period shall not exceed 30% of the highest Aggregate OLB at any point during such 12-month period; provided
that, any Discretionary Sale may be excluded from such 30% limitation with the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent; provided, further, that the Borrower may make Discretionary Sales of Loans exceeding such 30% limitation if (x)
all proceeds from such Discretionary Sales are applied pursuant to Section 2.3(b) to reduce Advances Outstanding and (y)
the Facility Amount is concurrently reduced pursuant to Section 2.3(a) by an amount equal to the proceeds of such Discretionary
Sales.


 


(b)         Notices to Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders with copies of any notices (and, if requested
by the Lenders, other materials) received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14 in connection with any
Discretionary Sale.


 


Section 2.15.      Refunding
of Swingline Advances.


 


(a)         Each
Swingline Advance shall be refunded by the Revolving Lenders on the second Business Day following the date of such Swingline Advance
(each such date, a “Swingline Refund Date”). Such refundings shall be made by the Revolving Lenders in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall thereafter be reflected as Advances of the Revolving Lenders on the books and
records of the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its respective Pro Rata Share of Advances as required to
repay Swingline Advances outstanding to the Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 noon on the applicable Swingline Refund Date.


 


(b)         The
Borrower shall pay to the Swingline Lender, within twenty-two (22) days of demand, the amount of such Swingline Advances to the
extent amounts received from the Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Advances requested
or required to be refunded. If any portion of any such amount paid to the Swingline Lender shall be recovered by or on behalf
of the Borrower from the Swingline Lender in bankruptcy or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared
among all the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Nothing in this clause (b) is intended to
or shall relieve any Lender from any default in its funding obligations under this Agreement.


 






    63


     


    

 


(c)         Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swingline Advances in accordance with the terms
of this Section 2.15 is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including,
without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2. Further, each Revolving Lender agrees and
acknowledges that if prior to the refunding of any outstanding Swingline Advances pursuant to this Section 2.15, an Insolvency
Event relating to the Borrower or the Collateral Manager shall have occurred, each Revolving Lender will, on the date the applicable
Advance would have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Advance to be refunded in an amount
equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of such Swingline Advance. Each Revolving Lender will immediately transfer
to the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline
Lender will deliver to such Revolving Lender a certificate evidencing such participation dated the date of receipt of such funds
and for such amount. Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s
participating interest in a Swingline Advance, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender
will distribute to such Revolving Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest
payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded).


 


(d)         Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.15, the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline
Advance at a time when any other Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements (which
may include the delivery of cash collateral) with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender which are satisfactory to the Swingline
Lender to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iii)) with respect
to any such Defaulting Lender.


 


Section 2.16.      Defaulting
Lenders.


 


(a)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until
such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:


 


(i)          That
Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall
be restricted as set forth in Section 12.1.


 






    64


     


    

 


(ii)         Any
payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting
Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined
by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative
Agent hereunder; second, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Swingline Lender; third,
if so determined by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations
of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in a Swingline Loan; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no
Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund
its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy
obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing
to the Revolving Lenders or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by
any Revolving Lender or the Swingline Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower
as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a
result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting
Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the
principal amount of any Advances or funded participations in Swingline Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not
fully funded its Pro Rata Share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances and funded participations in Swingline
Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances, or funded
participations in Swingline Loans, of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a
Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to
this Section 2.16 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents
hereto.


 


(iii)        During
any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting
Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.15(c), the “Pro Rata
Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender;
provided that (x) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting
Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A)
the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances of that
Lender.


 


(iv)        Promptly
on demand by the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent from time to time, the Borrower shall prepay Swingline Loans in
an amount of all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Swingline Lender (after giving effect to clause (iii) above).


 


(v)         For any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender, that Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive
any Non-Usage Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay
any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).


 






    65


     


    

 


(b)         If the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender in their respective sole discretion determine that a Defaulting Lender
should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender (provided in the case of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) or (v)
of such term or that has defaulted in the funding of an Advance, which default remains uncured, such determination shall require
the consent of the Borrower), the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified
in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral),
that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other
actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by
the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iii) above), whereupon
that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to
fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting
Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having
been a Defaulting Lender.

a lender under the related loan syndication Underlying Instruments, it has the right to do so.

(d)           Accounts. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that each Account shall be deemed to be a Securities Account.
Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees to cause the Collateral Custodian or any other Securities Intermediary that holds any
Cash or other Financial Asset for the Borrower in an Account to agree with the parties hereto that (A) the cash and other property

nor any Securities Intermediary shall be under any duty or obligation in connection with the acquisition by the Borrower of, or
the grant by the Borrower of a security interest to the Administrative Agent in, any 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 Underlying Instruments, or otherwise
to examine the Underlying Instruments, 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 transferred to the Administrative Agent hereunder as custodial agent for the Administrative Agent in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


(f)            Adjustments. If (i) the Collateral Manager makes a deposit into the Collection Account on behalf of the Borrower

an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such Collection, the Collateral Manager 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 6.5.        
Realization Upon Defaulted or Delinquent Loans.


 


The Collateral Manager
will use reasonable efforts consistent with the Underlying Instruments to exercise available remedies relating to a Loan that is

of any of its obligations thereunder in order to maximize recoveries thereunder. The Collateral Manager will comply in all material
respects with the Credit and Collection Policy and Applicable Law in exercising such remedies, including but not limited to acceleration
and foreclosure, and employ practices and procedures including reasonable efforts to enforce all obligations of Obligors by foreclosing
upon and causing the sale of such Underlying Assets at public or private sale. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Collateral Manager may, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, cause the sale of any such Underlying Assets
to the Collateral Manager or its Affiliates for a purchase price equal to the then fair market value thereof, any such sale to
be evidenced by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Manager delivered to the Administrative Agent setting
forth the Loan, the Underlying Assets, the sale price of the Underlying Assets and certifying that such sale price is the fair
market value of such Underlying Assets.

THE COLLATERAL CUSTODIAN


 


Section 7.1.        
Designation of Collateral Custodian.


 


(a)          Initial
Collateral Custodian. The role of collateral custodian with respect to the Underlying Instruments shall be conducted by the
Person designated as Collateral Custodian hereunder from time to time in accordance with this Section 7.1. Until the
Administrative Agent shall give to Wells Fargo a Collateral Custodian Termination Notice, Wells Fargo is hereby appointed as,
and hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Collateral Custodian pursuant to the

(b)          Successor Collateral Custodian. Upon the Collateral Custodian’s receipt of a Collateral Custodian Termination
Notice from the Administrative Agent of the designation of a successor Collateral Custodian pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.5,
the Collateral Custodian agrees that it will terminate its activities as Collateral Custodian hereunder.


 


Section 7.2.        
Duties of Collateral Custodian.


 


(a)          Appointment. Each of the Borrower 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 resignation or
removal as Collateral Custodian pursuant to the terms hereof.


 


(b)          Duties. On or before the initial Funding Date, and until its removal pursuant to Section 7.5, the Collateral
Custodian shall perform, on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations:


 


(i)            The Collateral Custodian shall take and retain custody of the Required Loan Documents delivered by the Borrower pursuant
to the definition of “Eligible Loans” in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, all for the benefit
of the Secured Parties and subject to the Lien thereon in favor of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties.
Within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of any Underlying Instruments, the Collateral Custodian shall review the Required
Loan Documents delivered to it to confirm that (A) if the files delivered per the following sentence indicate that any document
must contain an original signature, each such document appears to bear the original signature, or if the file indicates that such
document must contain a copy of a signature, that such copies appear to bear a reproduction of such signature and (B) based on
a review of the applicable note, the related original Loan balance, Loan identification number and Obligor name with respect to
such Loan is referenced on the related Loan List and is not a duplicate Loan, and the related original balance (based on a comparison
to the note or assignment agreement, as applicable) is greater than or equal to the applicable loan balance listed on the Loan
Tape (such items (A) through (B) collectively, the “Review Criteria”). In order to facilitate the foregoing
review by the Collateral Custodian, in connection with each delivery of Underlying Instruments hereunder to the Collateral Custodian,
the Collateral Manager shall provide to the Collateral Custodian an electronic file (in EXCEL or a comparable format acceptable
to the Collateral Custodian) that contains a list of all Required Loan Documents and whether they require original signatures,
the Loan identification number and the name of the Obligor and the original Loan balance with respect to each related Loan. If,

The Collateral Manager shall have twenty (20) Business Days to correct any non-compliance with any Review Criteria. If after the
conclusion of such time period the Collateral Manager has still not cured any non-compliance by a Loan with any Review Criteria,
the Collateral Custodian shall promptly notify the Collateral Manager, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination
by providing a written report to such persons identifying, with particularity, each Loan and each of the applicable Review Criteria
that such Loan fails to satisfy. In addition, if requested in writing in the form of Exhibit E by the Collateral Manager
and approved by the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of the Collateral Custodian’s delivery of such report,
the Collateral Custodian shall return the Underlying Instruments for any Loan 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 Underlying Instruments.

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 Underlying Instruments or the instruments therein; and provided further that the Collateral

Manager’s (or Administrative Agent’s, as applicable) review no later than two (2) Business Days prior to such Payment
Date. The approval of such calculations (which may be by email) by the Collateral Manager (or after delivery of a Notice of Exclusive
Control, the Administrative Agent) shall constitute instructions by the Collateral Manager (or after delivery of a Notice of Exclusive
Control, the Administrative Agent) to the Collateral Custodian to withdraw on the related Payment Date from the applicable Collection
Account and pay or transfer amounts set forth in such report in the manner specified, and in accordance with the priorities established,

such information as it may reasonably request including, but not limited to, the Borrower’s name, physical address, tax identification
number and other information that will help the Collateral Custodian identify and verify the Borrower’s identity such as
organizational documents, certificate of good standing, license to do business, or other pertinent identifying information.


 


(ix)           The Collateral Custodian shall create a collateral database with respect to the Collateral (the “Collateral Database”),
and update the Collateral Database daily for changes, including to reflect the sale or other disposition of the Collateral, based

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.

Custodian Termination Notice, the Collateral Custodian shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor Collateral Custodian
has been appointed, has agreed to act as Collateral Custodian hereunder, and has received all Underlying Instruments held by the
previous Collateral Custodian. The appointment of any successor Collateral Custodian that is not an Affiliate of Wells Fargo shall
(unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) require the approval of the Borrower (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld). In the case of a removal of the Collateral Custodian, if no successor custodian shall have been appointed
and an instrument of acceptance by a successor custodian shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Custodian within 90 days
after the giving of a Collateral Custodian Termination Notice, the Collateral Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction

except, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the case of its willful misconduct, bad faith or grossly
negligent performance or omission of its duties and in the case of its grossly negligent performance of its Payment Duties and
in the case of its grossly negligent performance of its duties in taking and retaining custody of the Underlying Instruments.

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.

hereby) shall be based upon, and in reliance upon, data, information and notice provided to it by the Collateral Manager, the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower and/or any related bank agent, Obligor or similar party, and the Collateral Custodian
shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any such information or data provided to it by such persons and shall be
entitled to update its records (as it may deem necessary or appropriate) based on such information or data.

of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.


 


(j)                  In
no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because
of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared),
terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action (including any laws, ordinances, regulations) or the like that delay, restrict
or prohibit the providing of services by the Collateral Custodian as contemplated by this Agreement.

Resignation of the Collateral Custodian.


 


The Collateral Custodian
shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon (a) ninety (90) days written notice to the Borrower,
Collateral Manager, Administrative Agent and each Lender, or (b) the Collateral Custodian’s determination that (i) the performance
of its duties hereunder is or becomes impermissible under Applicable Law and (ii) there is no reasonable action that the Collateral
Custodian could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under Applicable Law. Any such determination permitting
the resignation of the Collateral Custodian shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect
delivered to the Administrative Agent. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor Collateral Custodian, appointed
pursuant to Section 7.5, shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Collateral Custodian hereunder.
In the case of a resignation of the Collateral Custodian, if no successor custodian shall have been appointed and an instrument
of acceptance by a successor custodian shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Custodian within 90 days after the giving

Section 7.8.

(a)               Release for
Servicing. From time to time and as appropriate for the enforcement or servicing of any of the Collateral, the Collateral

to release to the Collateral Manager within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such request, the related Underlying
Instruments or the documents set forth in such request and receipt to the Collateral Manager. All documents so released to

accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Manager shall return to the Collateral Custodian the Underlying
Instruments or other such documents (i) promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, or (ii) when the Collateral
Manager’s need therefor in connection with such enforcement or servicing no longer exists, unless the Loan shall be
liquidated or sold, in which case, upon receipt of an additional request for release of documents and receipt certifying such
liquidation or sale from the Collateral Manager to the Collateral Custodian in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit E,
the Collateral Manager’s request and receipt submitted pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection shall be
released by the Collateral Custodian to the Collateral Manager.


 


(b)              Release for
Payment. Upon receipt by the Collateral Custodian of the Collateral Manager’s request for release of documents and
receipt in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit E (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all

this Agreement), the Collateral Custodian shall promptly release the related Underlying Instruments to the Collateral
Manager.

request in the form of Exhibit E hereto (signed by both the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) specifying the Collateral
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 (5) Business Days, return the Underlying

Section 7.10.    
Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Collateral; Audits.


 


The Collateral Manager,
the Borrower and the Collateral Custodian shall provide to the Administrative Agent access to the Underlying Instruments and all
other documentation regarding the Collateral including in such cases where the Administrative 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 (2) Business Days’ prior written request, (ii) during normal
business hours and (iii) subject to the Collateral Manager’s and Collateral Custodian’s normal security and confidentiality
procedures; provided that the Administrative Agent may, and shall upon request of any Lender, permit each such requesting
Lender to be included on any such review, and shall use reasonably commercial efforts to schedule any review on a day when such
requesting Lenders desiring to participate in such review may be included. Prior to the A&R Effective Date and periodically
thereafter at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may review the Collateral Manager’s collection
and administration of the Collateral in order to assess compliance by the Collateral Manager with ARTICLE VI and may conduct
an audit of the Collateral, and Underlying Instruments in conjunction with such a review. Such review shall be reasonable in scope
and shall be completed in a reasonable period of time.


 


Without limiting the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.10, from time to time on request of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian
shall permit certified public accountants or other independent auditors acceptable to the Administrative Agent to conduct a review
of the Underlying Instruments and all other documentation regarding the Collateral. Up to two such reviews or audits per fiscal
year shall be at the expense of the Borrower and additional reviews or audits in any fiscal year shall be at the expense of the
Administrative Agent; provided that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Collateral Manager Default or
an Event of Default, any such reviews or audits, regardless of frequency, shall be at the expense of the Borrower.


 


ARTICLE
VIII.



SECURITY INTEREST


 


Section 8.1.        
Grant of Security Interest.


 


(a)              
This Agreement constitutes a security agreement and the Advances effected hereby constitute secured loans by the applicable
Lenders to the Borrower under Applicable Law. For such purpose, the Borrower hereby transfers, conveys, assigns and grants as of
the Original Closing Date to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, a Lien and continuing security interest
in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under (in each case, whether now owned or existing, or hereafter
acquired or arising) all of the Collateral, to secure the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment and performance in full when
due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become
due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions set forth in this Agreement, this
Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in any property to the extent that such grant of a security interest
is prohibited by any Applicable Law not in effect as of the date hereof or requires a consent not obtained of any Governmental
Authority pursuant to such Applicable Law. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder
are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall
not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Each of the Administrative
Agent and each Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such
powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Borrower for any
act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. If the Borrower fails to
perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation
to do so, may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement. The expenses of the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per
annum 2.0% above the rate per annum applicable to Advances, shall be payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent
on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured hereby.


 






    111


     


    

 


(b)              
The grant of a security interest under this Section 8.1 does not constitute and is not intended to result in
a creation or an assumption by the Administrative Agent or any of the other Secured Parties of any obligation of the Borrower or
any other Person in connection with any or all of the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Collateral 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 Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release
the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral, and (c) none of the Administrative Agent or any other
Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative
Agent or any other 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.


 


(c)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Custodian and each Lender hereby agree to treat, and to cause each of their respective Affiliates to treat, the Advances as indebtedness
for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, and shall file its
tax returns or reports, or cause its Affiliates to file such tax returns or reports, in a manner consistent with such treatment.


 


Section 8.2.        
Release of Lien on Collateral.


 


At the same time as
(i) any Collateral 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, (ii) such Loan has been the subject of a Discretionary Sale pursuant to Section 2.14 or
a sale pursuant to Section 6.5 or (iii) this Agreement terminates in accordance with Section 12.6, the Administrative
Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties will, to the extent requested by the Collateral Manager, release its interest in such Collateral.
In connection with any sale of such Collateral, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will after the deposit
by the Collateral Manager of the Proceeds of such sale into the Collection Account, at the sole expense of the Collateral Manager,
execute and deliver to the Collateral Manager any assignments, bills of sale, termination statements and any other releases and
instruments as the Collateral Manager may reasonably request in order to effect the release and transfer of such Collateral; provided
that, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will make no representation or warranty, express or implied,
with respect to any such Collateral in connection with such sale or transfer and assignment. Nothing in this section shall diminish
the Collateral Manager’s obligations hereunder with respect to the Proceeds of any such sale.


 






    112


     


    

 


Section 8.3.        
Further Assurances.


 


The provisions of Section 12.12
shall apply to the security interest granted under Section 8.1 as well as to the Advances hereunder.


 


Section 8.4.        
Remedies.


 


Subject to the provisions
of Section 9.2, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default
described in Section 9.1(l)), the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties shall have, with respect to the Collateral granted
pursuant to Section 8.1, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent and
Secured Parties under this Agreement or other Applicable Law, all rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the
UCC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand,
presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the
Borrower or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Administrative Agent’s name or the name of its nominee
or nominees, and/or forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith
sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof
(or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s
board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions (including by lease
or by deferred payment arrangement) as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for
future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and/or may take such other actions as may be available under applicable law,
subject to the provisions of Section 9.2. Subject to Section 9.2, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party shall
have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, auction
or closed tender, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the
Borrower, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. The Borrower further agrees, at the Administrative Agent's request,
to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
select (on its behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties), whether at the Borrower's premises or elsewhere. The Administrative
Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting
all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral
or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties arising out of
the exercise by the Administrative Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements,
to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, and only after such
application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including,
without limitation, Section 9-615 of the UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the Borrower.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party arising out of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party
of any of its rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such
notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition. The Borrower
shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay
the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to collect
such deficiency.


 






    113


     


    

 


Section 8.5.        
Waiver of Certain Laws.


 


Each of the Borrower
and the Collateral Manager 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 hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral 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 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 Collateral
Manager, 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
marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security
interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such
court may determine.


 


Section 8.6.        
Power of Attorney.


 


Each of the Borrower
and the Collateral Manager hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full power of
substitution) in its name, place and stead and at is expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided
for (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth) in this Agreement during the continuance of an Event of Default (other
than an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(l)) (and, with respect to the Collateral Manager, during the continuance
of a Collateral Manager Default), 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 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 Collateral Manager
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 Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing
and delivering to the Administrative Agent or such purchaser all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments
as may be designated in any such request. The power of attorney granted by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.6
supersedes any other power of attorney or similar rights granted by the Borrower to any other party (including, without limitation,
the Collateral Manager) under this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement; provided that, the
Collateral Manager may continue to exercise its rights under this Agreement until the Collateral Manager has received notice of
the Collateral Custodian’s exercise of its power of attorney hereunder.

Section 9.2.        
Remedies.


 


(a)              
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and
shall, at the request of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare (i) the Termination Date to have occurred and
the Obligations to be immediately due and payable in full (without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind all of which
are hereby waived by the Borrower) or (ii) the Revolving Period End Date with respect to all Commitments to have occurred; provided
that, in the case of any event involving the Borrower described in Section 9.1(f), the Obligations shall be immediately
due and payable in full (without presentment, demand, notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly, waived by the Borrower)
and the Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred automatically upon the occurrence of any such event. During the continuation
of an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(l), if no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, there will
be no limitation on the rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties under this Agreement, other than
the inability of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to (A) declare the Termination Date as set forth in clause (i)
above and (B) foreclose on or liquidate the Collateral or any portion thereof.


 


(b)              
On and after the declaration or occurrence of the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, 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 each applicable jurisdiction and other Applicable Laws, which rights shall be cumulative. In addition,
the Borrower and the Collateral Manager hereby agree that they will, at the Collateral Manager’s expense and at the direction
of the Administrative Agent, forthwith, (i) assemble all or any part of the Loans as directed by the Administrative Agent and make
the same available to the Administrative Agent at a place to be designated by the Administrative Agent and (ii) without notice
except as specified below, sell the Loans or any part thereof upon such terms, in such lots, to such buyers, and according to such
other instructions as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable, subject to Section 9.2(c). The Borrower
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, ten (10) days’ notice to the Borrower of any sale hereunder
shall constitute reasonable notification. All cash Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection
from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Loans (after payment of any amounts incurred in connection with such sale)
shall be deposited into the Collection Account and to be applied pursuant to Section 2.8. For the avoidance of doubt,
the occurrence of a Termination Date as defined in clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, of the definition of “Termination
Date” shall constitute a Termination Date for the purposes of this Section 9.2.


 






    117


     


    

 


(c)

(or automatic acceleration thereof) pursuant to Section 9.2(a), the Collateral Manager (or any of its Affiliates) shall
have the right to purchase all of the Loans in the Collateral by paying to the Collateral Custodian in immediately available funds,
an amount equal to all outstanding Obligations. If the Collateral Manager or any Affiliate thereof fails to exercise this purchase
right within ten (10) days following the declaration that the Obligations are immediately due and payable pursuant to Section
9.2(a), then such rights shall be irrevocably forfeited by the Collateral Manager and its Affiliates (but, for the avoidance
of doubt, such parties shall have the right to participate in any sale pursuant to Section 9.2(b)).

Collateral or in respect of any Loan included in the Collateral, excluding, however, any Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting
from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party. If the Borrower has made any indemnity
payment pursuant to this Section 10.1 and such payment fully indemnified the recipient thereof and the recipient thereafter
collects any payments from others in respect of such Indemnified Amounts then, the recipient shall repay to the Borrower an amount
equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such indemnified amounts. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower

Manager, (ii) could have been cured by either the Collateral Manager or the Borrower and such cure was not effected in a
timely manner or (iii) resulted from a failure or delay by either the Borrower or the Collateral Manager to confirm
satisfactory completion in a timely manner of any and all actions they requested in order to maintain compliance with the UCC
or such other Applicable Law;


 


(vii)             any
dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than the discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment with
respect to any Collateral (including, without limitation, a defense based on the Collateral not being a legal, valid and
binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from

failure of the Collateral Custodian to remit any amounts held in the Collection Account pursuant to the instructions of the
Collateral Manager or the Administrative Agent (to the extent such Person is entitled to give such instructions in accordance
with the terms hereof) whether by reason of the exercise of set-off rights or otherwise;


 


(ix)                any
inability to obtain any judgment in, or utilize the court or other adjudication system of, any state in which an Obligor may
be located as a result of the failure of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager to qualify to do business or file any notice
or business activity report or any similar report;

failure by the Borrower to give reasonably equivalent value to the applicable third party transferor, in consideration for
the transfer by such third party to the Borrower of any item of Collateral or any attempt by any Person to void or otherwise
avoid any such transfer under any statutory provision or common law or equitable action, including, without limitation, any
provision of the Bankruptcy Code;


 


(xvii)            the use of
the proceeds of any Advance in a manner other than as provided in this Agreement;

by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower 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 10.1(a).


 


(d)              
The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 10.1 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Manager or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

Each Secured Party
hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent and bailee for purposes of perfection pursuant to the applicable
UCC and hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents and bailees (including, without limitation,
the Collateral Custodian) to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each of the Secured Parties. 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. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality, of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby
appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further
action that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate or that a Secured Party may reasonably request 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 Administrative
Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative
to all or any of the Collateral now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. The Required Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to take any such incidental
action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Administrative
Agent hereunder, the Administrative 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 Required
Lenders; provided that, 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 pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not
receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten (10) Business Days of such Person’s receipt of
such request, then such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent

Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not
to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Collateral
Manager, the Borrower or a Lender.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty
or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default,

the books and records) of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager; (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.

Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent.


 


Each Lender 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 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.


 


Section 11.5.    
Indemnification of the Administrative Agent.


 


Each Lender agrees
to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager), ratably in accordance
with its Pro Rata Share 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 Lenders 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. Without limitation of
the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share 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 Lenders hereunder and/or thereunder and to the extent
that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager.

Section 11.6.    
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 (5) days’ written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with
cause by each of the Lenders acting jointly. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders acting jointly shall appoint
a successor Administrative Agent with, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower,
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Each of the Borrower and each Lender agree that it shall not unreasonably withhold

information that the Borrower, the Collateral Manager or any of their Affiliates, or the officers, employees, members, managers

Section 12.16.
Status of Lenders; Assignments by the Lenders.


 


(a)       Each Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower that it is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined
in Rule 144A of the Securities Act. Each Lender may, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
(such consent from the Borrower not to be (x) unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or (y) required if (A) a Default or
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) such assignment is to any Affiliate of a Lender or (C) such assignment
is required by any change in Applicable Law), at any time assign, or grant a security interest or sell a participation interest
in or sell any Advance (or portion thereof) or its Commitment hereunder (or any portion thereof) to any Person; provided
that, as applicable, (i) no transfer of any Advance (or any portion thereof) or its Commitment hereunder (or any portion thereof)
shall be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities laws or is made in accordance with the Securities Act and such laws, (ii) the transfer is made only to a person who
is (A) either an “accredited investor” as defined in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3), or (7) of Rule 501 of Regulation
D under the Securities Act or any entity in which all of the equity owners come within such paragraphs or to a “qualified
institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and (B) a “qualified purchaser” as defined
in the 1940 Act, (iii) no such assignment, grant or sale of a participation interest shall be to an Ineligible Assignee, (iv) at
any time prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Reinvestment Period End Date, such Person shall have a long-term
unsecured debt rating of “A” or better by S&P and “A3” or better by Moody’s, (v) Wells Fargo
shall (A) unless required by Applicable Law (including, without limitation, the Volcker Rule) not assign more than 49% of the Facility
Amount and (B) retain all Eligible Loan approval rights pursuant to clause (B) of the definition of “Eligible Loan”
and (vi) in the case of an assignment of any Advance (or any portion thereof) or its Commitment hereunder (or of any portion thereof)
the assignee executes and delivers to the Collateral Manager, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a fully executed Joinder
Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto. The parties to any such assignment, grant or sale of a participation
interest shall execute and deliver to the applicable Lender for its acceptance and recording in its books and records, such agreement
or document as may be satisfactory to such parties. The Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 2.12 and 2.13 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under
Section 2.13(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.13(g) shall be delivered to
the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this
Section 12.16(a); provided that, such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
2.12 or 2.13, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive,
except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in Applicable Law that occurs after the
participant acquired the applicable participation. The Borrower shall not assign or delegate, or grant any interest in, or permit
any Lien to exist upon, any of the Borrower’s rights, obligations or duties under the Transaction Documents without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary,
(i) Wells Fargo shall not need prior consent of the Borrower to consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey or transfer
substantially all of its properties and assets, including without limitation any Advance (or portion thereof) or its Commitment
hereunder (or any portion thereof), to any Person and (ii) if any Lender other than (x) the Administrative Agent or (y) a Lender
which is administered by the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent (A) becomes a Defaulting Lender,
unless such Lender shall have been deemed to no longer be a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.16(b), (B) becomes a
Non-Consenting Lender, unless such Lender shall have approved the Applicable Amendment, (C) shall have requested compensation from
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(a), 2.12(b) or 2.13, unless such Lender shall have withdrawn such request
or (D) shall have notified the Borrower of a Eurodollar Disruption Event (other than pursuant to clause (d) of such term) as to
such Lender, unless such Lender shall have withdrawn such notice, then, in each case, each of the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower shall have the right to cause such Person to assign its entire interest in the Advances and this Agreement to a transferee
selected by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower (as applicable), in an assignment which satisfies the conditions set forth
in the second sentence of this Section 12.16(a).


 






    136


     


    

 


(b)       The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its lending offices,
a copy of each transfer pursuant to Section 12.16(a) delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Transfer by a Lender of its rights hereunder
may be effected only by the recording by the Administrative Agent of the identity of the transferee in the Register. The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


 


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


 






    137


     


    

 


(c)       The Collateral Custodian may, at any time, assign all or any part of its rights and obligations hereunder; provided, however,
that any such assignee shall (i) be a bank or other financial institution organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States or of any state thereof, (ii) be authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, (iii) have a combined capital
and surplus of at least $200,000,000, (iv) be subject to supervision or examination by a federal or state banking authority, (v)
have a rating of at least “Baa1” by Moody’s and “BBB+” by S&P and (vi) have an office within
the United States.


 


Section 12.17.
Heading and Exhibits.


 


The headings herein
are for purposes of reference 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 12.18.
Intent of the Parties.


 


It is the intent and
understanding of each party hereto that the Advances are loans from the Lenders to the Borrower and do not constitute a “security”
within the meaning of Section 8-102(15) of the UCC.


 


Section 12.19.
Termination of the Safekeeping Agreement.


 


The parties hereto
hereby agree that the Safekeeping Agreement, dated as of May 19, 2011, among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Custodian was previously terminated and superseded by the Existing Loan and Security Agreements and shall be further superseded
by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in all respects.


 


Section 12.20.
Effect of Amendment and Restatement.


 


On the A&R Effective
Date, the Existing A&R Loan and Security Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in their respective entireties
by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement and other Transaction Documents, whether executed
and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a payment, reborrowing, or termination of the Obligations
under the Existing A&R Loan and Security Agreement as in effect prior to the A&R Effective Date and (b) such Obligations
are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby) with only the terms thereof being modified as provided in this
Agreement. The Borrower hereby reaffirms its duties and obligations under each Transaction Document to which it is a party (such
reaffirmation is solely for the convenience of the parties hereto and is not required by the terms of the Existing A&R Loan
and Security Agreement). Each reference to a Loan and Security Agreement in any Transaction Document shall be deemed to be a reference
to such Loan and Security Agreement as amended and restated hereby.


 






    138


     


    

 


Section 12.21.
Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in any Transaction Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each
party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Transaction Document,
to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority
and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 


(a)           the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder
which may be payable to it by any Lender party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and


 


(b)           the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


 


(i)            a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 


(ii)           a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial
Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such
shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; or


 


(iii)          the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of
any EEA Resolution Authority.


 


Section 12.22.
Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. To the extent that this Agreement
and/or any other Transaction Document constitutes a QFC, the Borrower agrees with each Secured Party as of the Fourth Amendment
Closing Date as follows:


 


(a)       In the event a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of this
Agreement and/or any other Transaction Document, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement and/or any other Transaction
Document from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special
Resolution Regime if this Agreement and/or any other the Transaction Document, and any such interest and obligation, were governed
by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.


 


(b)       In the event that a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.
Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement and/or any other Transaction Document that may be exercised against
such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S.
Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement and/or any other Transaction Document were governed by the laws of the United States
or a state of the United States.
